Chapter 532 532: Fat fish takes the bait (5) [Please vote]
After Shen Tang finished speaking, everyone was silent.
This matter is indeed not easy to handle at all.
First of all, the workload is huge.
It is known that talent is a thing, unless you are born into the royal family, even if your qualifications are worse than those of others, you can use the cultural and military fortunes in the national seal to build up a literary heart and courage, otherwise it will be classified as "born" It’s a limited edition product that you have, but you’re born without.”
In other words——
All women of appropriate age in the country may have talents!
If you have extremely strong talents, you may still be able to sense the energy of heaven and earth even if your body has passed the golden age.
How many households are there in Longwu County?
Everyone looked at Chu Yao and the others who were in charge of the household registration reconstruction. There is no doubt about Chu Yao's work ability. He only pondered for a moment before reporting the specific figures of the current work progress: "Currently, a total of 23,333 households are registered, including a total of 42,111 female dependents. Fourteen people... If they are all rebuilt, it is estimated that the number can be increased by another 30%..."
Chu Yao checked the county records over the years. According to records, Longwu County had a registered population of 300,000 at its peak, and countless businessmen came here to look for business opportunities. Driven by this population, Longwu County was also prosperous among the states and counties in Xin State.
Now it is less than 100,000, a sharp drop of nearly 60%.
Longwu County was depressed due to Shiwu’s frequent invasions. The young men in the county either left their hometowns and stayed and were massacred by Shiwu, or they joined the army to guard the border. Even if you spend money to recruit soldiers, you can't even assemble a decent elite force.
The loss of young men is serious, and many of those who remain are old, weak, sick and disabled who cannot run away, and most of them are women. These people are all targets of investigation. Although there are only a very small number of talented people... but the base is huge!
Everyone: "..."
At first, I was worried that there were too few people, but now I look at it——
There is still a long way to go.
However, this matter cannot be delayed, and talented girls must be screened out as soon as possible. It can be said to be protection or surveillance. Xian Yujian was from a standard ranger sect, and he was inspired when he heard it: "How about setting up a ranger sect? This way, we can legitimately send 'disciples' everywhere to recruit disciples, and select qualified girls without alerting the outside world!"
< br>After he finished speaking, he was voted down by many scribes.
One voice: "This can't happen!"
Xian Yujian was puzzled: "Why?"
Everyone: "..."
Does this need an explanation?
The Jianghu Ranger has a very low status and a bad reputation.
Although they flatter themselves, they advertise themselves as chivalrous people who make friends generously, value friendship over life and death, and draw their swords to help when there is injustice on the road. But actually?
Most of them are idle local gangsters and bandits.
They are just using the banner of "hoeing the strong and supporting the weak", ignoring the law, and doing evil things of bullying men, dominating women, and doing evil.
Carrying such a banner to "accept apprentices"...
Which parent is willing to let their children "learn skills"?
What's more, she is still a girl. Even Bai Su, who is also a ranger, frowned in disapproval. This is a bad idea!
Everyone was talking in low voices again.
Lin Feng came up with an idea: "What about building a private school?"
Her education was handled by the teacher hired by her family and her mother, and she was trapped in a small world at a young age. , although they have several friends of the same age, they cannot get too close due to their status. What I wanted most when I was young was to enter the Lin family clan school.
I heard that there are many tribesmen of the same age there.
However, she is just a girl. She mostly learns skills that cultivate sentiments such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She can entertain herself, but her enlightenment is just for getting married in the future. Although he is not blind, he is not qualified to "learn a lot of things".
Chu Yao said: "That's not appropriate. Those young children can still find a reason to join the school. What about the older ones?"
In the current environment, both men and women are family laborers. Five or six years old Girls have to help take care of their younger brothers and sisters, collect hay and firewood, clear weeds in the fields and even cook. Every stop all day long until twelve or three.
At this age, you can look for an iceman to visit your in-laws.
You can get married at the age of hair.
Although the body at this age is not fully developed, it is full of vitality. It may not take a few months to conceive and become a mother, and then give birth in succession. The cost of raising a child is extremely low, but the return benefits are high. There is absolutely no loss in having more lives. Of course, if unfortunately it is difficult to give birth, it will be the end of the world.
Chu Yao: "Furthermore - for ordinary people, if they have the opportunity to send their children to private schools, they would send them to men, and there is no reason to send girls in the family. Sending girls to study, below Who will take care of the younger children?"
Shen Tang: "This is easy to handle. If the selected girl has a male of the right age in her family, she can also be sent to study and rented to this family. Discounts for renting farm tools and cattle are used to make up for the labor losses caused by the lack of manpower. The men sent do not necessarily have to learn literacy, but they can also learn some livelihood skills. To the outside world, what they really learn is not for us. Has the final say?”
The main purpose of her morning meeting was to set up a school that could accommodate girls of the right age - such a big fish pond cannot only raise a few fish fry. She also didn't have the opportunity to come into contact with young girls who came from a good background and had a good foundation.
I can only rely on myself and raise it myself.
As long as they succeed in hiding for two or three years and delay these girls from practicing, those people will not dare to make trouble again. Isn't it a good thing for one's family to have a scholar or a brave warrior to bring glory to the family? If you still want to make a fuss——
The fish fry who was raised to be ambitious...will she be willing to repeat the old path of generations of women? To be trapped in endless children, endless farm work, despair with no end in sight, and a life where you can see the end at a glance?
Chu Yao frowned and asked a very realistic question.
"That's okay, but will the treasury have enough silver?"
Shen Tang: "..."
She took a deep breath, ignoring the bleeding little heart, and said: "Bite your teeth, you can always save something. If it doesn't work, don't we still have our neighbor Shi Wu? Anyway, the smuggling business continues to be banned, so we might as well take this bite Meat."
Everyone: "..."
The two generals at Yonggu Pass disagree.
"This can't be done! We are ashamed of being together with ten crows! Let alone raising tigers to cause trouble, we can't wait to starve these thieves to death!"
As soon as Gu Chi heard their voices, he thought of a strategy to accommodate them. : "Two generals, don't worry. This move is not to help Shiwu. If you can make money from Shiwu, don't you spend the enemy's money to support your own soldiers? You can use these soldiers to rob later..."
He smiled sinisterly: "...It's also a wonderful thing."
The two generals thought about it and felt much better.
Jiang Sheng had a complete charter in his mind and asked: "The younger ones can settle down like this, but what about the older ones?"
Xun Zhen complimented: "Xianden has an idea?"< br>
Jiang Sheng said: "Now that there is a shortage of people, we might as well say that the county government needs to recruit some older and more stable girls to take care of them, and it can also accommodate them. But - what excuse can we use to screen them one by one?" Not a few people, but tens of thousands!
This formation cannot be made small even if it is small.
Shen Tang held his chin up and thought for a while.
Suddenly a light flashed in my mind.
She slapped her leg and blurted out: "Nucleus nucleic acid test for all!"
Everyone was puzzled.
What sour?
Shen Tang slapped his forehead and explained: "What I mean is a universal physical examination. Both men, women and children can participate. In the name of free clinics by famous doctors in the medical center, free physical examinations are provided to the people throughout Longwu County. , some common diseases We can also give away a few pills. I think it’s so cheap that few people can refuse it. Our goal is to select talented girls, but if we are just girls, the goal is too obvious.”
How to hide a leaf?
Throw it into the woods.
Everyone, especially the literary scribes, looked at their lord silently. Their eyes were so synchronized for the first time - lord, do you really know what you are talking about? Originally it was just screening all the women in the territory, but now it is screening all the people in the territory.
One hundred thousand people! ! !

Shiitake participated in an event.
You guys may find it on male videos.
PS: That activity is the best-selling selection on the male channel homepage. A batch of female channel books are thrown there to test the water and see what the data is like. _(:з」∠)_Although the book review area may be messy for two days, it is not a big problem. Free recommendations are just a small amount of money.
