Hu Ling, they don't want to eat meat in a short time, and they don't even want to hear the word meat. A vegetable banquet is just right for them.
Seven or eight kinds of vegetables are made in different patterns by Xu Qing. She also has some bacon, duck eggs, flour and vermicelli, so even if they are all vegetables, they don't look shabby at all.
The dishes from big pots and stoves are large in quantity and delicious enough to supply more than 300 people in the village, but they are enough for Hu Ling and Wang Dachuan to eat and drink.
The women in the stockade came to help Xu Qing. Xu Qing also taught them some cooking skills.
The village here is full of excitement and celebration, but some place on the other side is full of smoke and dust.
Now relying on the big tree, Wang Dachuan has tied a rope on both sides of the river. As long as he pulls the rope, he can cross the river by boat.
The follow-up treatment will be handed over to Wang Dachuan. After the mountain bandits are solved, the people here have no worries. They are all happy and grateful to Hu Ling and Li Changting.
After lunch, Xu Qing and Hu Ling are ready to leave and continue their journey.
Wang Dachuan sent them to the official road and made an appointment to see each other in a month.
Tan Yang, who has no sense of existence in the stockade, quietly gets on Ji's carriage and follows Xu Qing to Fanzhou city.
It was night, and they were sleeping in the wild.
After a simple dinner, Hu Ling and Hu Yi come to talk to Li Changting.
"Brother, the 50 children who were sent to the state of Yue have been rescued. Because of the early notice, some of them have been taken back by their parents, but there are still about 20 children who have not been claimed. I have put them in foster care to the magistrate for the time being." The alley.
These children come from all over the world. Some of them don't even know the name of their village. It's difficult to find their parents.
But these children are the hope of the future. Now all forces are short of manpower, and there are too many people staring at this area. Hu Ling even thinks that it's really good to return these children to those irresponsible parents in this way?
Xu Qing said: "how to say, although these parents are also wrong, the social environment is so, but although most of the children have been claimed back, there must be some who really intend to sell their children, right? I was thinking, if their parents don't want them, can the country support them? "
Li Changting: "how to raise it?"
Xu Qing: "set up a college for orphans, and teach them to study arts or martial arts according to their qualifications and interests. The custody of the children is in the hands of the state. When they grow up, they will be selected according to their abilities, which means that the state will assign them jobs, their parents can't interfere, and the children don't need to support their parents when they grow up. They just need to serve the country."
"Of course, it's not about training puppets or dead men. You see, when the country becomes an official, not everyone can do it. These children also have to go through the examination and screening. The idea of selecting the best means to choose people with excellent ability to take up some positions, and the rest are to make a living by themselves."
"It's not just the culture and martial arts that can define a person's value. This society needs talents from all walks of life to be rebuilt. Colleges can offer different subjects, and children can choose according to their abilities and interests. After all, there are too few talents. Most people are just ordinary people. It's good to learn the same skills."
"However, this kind of training method requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and it can not be done overnight. It's a bit difficult to rely on the strength of the country alone, and we need to work together to complete it."
Xu Qing just gave an idea and suggestion, but Li Changting and Hu Ling heard this idea for the first time. Although it is difficult to implement it, it is not impossible to realize it.
Xu Qing then said: "this way is only suitable for the time when the difficulties are not met. It's not very good for a long time. After all, women's status is too embarrassing. Some parents are not willing to raise their children, so they just leave them to the state, which is also a waste of national strength."
Li Changting nodded in agreement. Now both boys and girls are precious.
"If it's just a short-term operation, it won't be difficult. We can talk about it later. Today's adults dare not have children. They can't afford to raise them at all. After a long time, they are really out of touch. "
At the beginning, Xu Qing was thinking about the orphanage, but the orphanage is too unrealistic in this era. The vulnerable groups will always be exploited. This is the reality of this era.
Even in modern times, those orphanages are not all good.
It's better to teach people how to fish than to teach them how to fish. Therefore, Xu Qing directly suggested that it is more important to teach these children skills than to support them.
After hearing Xu Qing's suggestion, Hu Ling was somewhat moved. In fact, a big family like them would also cultivate their own reserve forces. If no one wanted these children, Hu Ling said that they were really willing to accept them. With the strength of the Beiling army, it would not be a problem to raise thousands of children, and they would be more loyal since they were raised as children.
"This suggestion is very good. I'll explain it to Yin Xiang in detail and see what Yin Xiang thinks." Li Changting road.
He turned to Hu Ling and asked, "how is Yue playing?"Hu Ling came back and said, "Oh, it's quite smooth, but the Yue people are really insidious and shameless. They have not stolen many children from us. Over the years, they have taken away more than 30000 children. These children who have grown up or haven't grown up are directly pushed out by the Yue country to serve as meat shields."
Li Changting frowned, and then heard Hu Ling say: "but my grandfather is not a vegetarian. He sent people to roar on the wall every day, let these children who were originally DAHAO surrender, and give them a series of protection and preferential treatment."
Xu Qing: "did anyone surrender?"
Hu Ling: "of course not at the beginning. Yue was very strict in discipline. These children were brainwashed seriously, but we captured a group of children and acquitted them directly during the confrontation."
"Our side has been persuading these children day and night. In addition to the violent power suppression in Vietnam, these children have been bullied by others in Vietnam and have a bad life. All of them are rebellious. You think, how can those children who know they are DAHAO's people not yearn for home? "
Xu Qing: "but it's not easy to save them, is it?"
Hu Ling nodded: "well, I'm afraid these Yue people think that these children are useless. Kill them all. Although we know that Yue dare not kill them, after all, if we kill these children, we will have no worries. We can step down Yue directly, but the king of Qi is moody and can't say for sure."
Xu Qing: "what happened later?"
