Everyone was a little confused, but also somewhat agreed.

They were really not living well in the past. They had to pay so much every day, and they didn’t have enough to eat or keep warm. It even took them several years to buy a new set of clothes.

Some are so miserable that they only have one intact piece of clothing at home, and anyone can wear it if they want to go out.

Unlike now, everyone is given a set of colorful clothes, and several sets are given out every year.

Even the shoes that most of them are reluctant to wear are provided here for each person, and they are replaced when they are worn out.

Such generous treatment is not many times better than what they had before.

Not to mention the greasy vegetables and rice noodles that make people eat them.

They just wanted to hand over the land that their ancestors had owned for generations, but they were hesitant.

If you hand it over and don't come back by then, it will be over.

After suffering from hunger for so many years, they knew very well that this person really couldn't survive without food.

"Lord County Magistrate, then, why couldn't everyone do it before?"

"Before? In the past, you had to pay taxes, sell grain to buy cloth, buy salt, buy candy, and go to school. These all cost money. But now, as long as we are a collective, these are free.

You can think about it, is it worthwhile? "

"This……"

Everyone was speechless.

Even if they don’t count this, they also know that it must be better now, but, but...

"My Lord County Magistrate, I would like to ask if I can withdraw after joining?"

"Of course!"

County Magistrate Chen Chuanguang solemnly said: “Fellow villagers, please remember clearly that our county collective can withdraw at any time.

However, everyone must also be aware that after withdrawing, the collective property will no longer have anything to do with it. "

After hearing this, someone came to a realization and said, "Does this mean that you can no longer go to the cafeteria to eat, nor can you receive new clothes or shoes, nor can you go to school for free?"

Chen Chuanguang did not deny this, "Everyone, the canteens and workshops in the city were built by everyone's concerted efforts, and they all rely on everyone to produce together. If an outsider comes to eat and drink for free at this time, , is everyone willing?"

As soon as these words came out, a loud voice suddenly sounded in the field.

"I don't want to!"

As this voice appeared, other people suddenly shouted loudly:
"I don't want to!"

"I don't want to!"

Yes, I don't want to. This is the foundation they have built themselves. How can they let others eat and drink for free?

This isn't about sitting on their heads, so they definitely don't want to.

But after shouting, they suddenly realized, yes, if they withdraw from the county collective in the future, wouldn't they be equivalent to outsiders?
Although they did contribute to this group before, they also ate and drank, and even received new clothes.

In the future, after they withdraw, they will no longer be the ones contributing to this collective, and they will naturally have nothing to do with this collective.

Thinking of this, everyone suddenly stopped thinking about how to exit, unless they wanted to go back to the way they were before.

At this time, someone asked again:

"May I ask your lord, what did your lord mean when you said before that the land will be distributed according to population after withdrawal?"

“This is naturally allocated based on the population of our county.

Everyone should know that our county collective was built by the joint efforts of everyone, so what about the land outside the county, should it also belong to each of us? "

"Indeed!"

"So if someone wants to withdraw, does it have to be distributed according to the population of that year? If the population is large, each of us will get a smaller share. If the population is small, then we will get a larger share!"

"But, my family originally had a hundred acres of land, which was more than anyone else's!"

"Now that you are working hard for the county, have you done more than others?"

"This?"

The man was speechless for a moment.

How could he exert more effort? Everyone has one pair of arms and two hands. It's not like he has eight pairs of arms. How could he have more than others?

At this time, Chen Chuanguang said again: "

According to what the old man said, it is indeed unfair for us to treat them uniformly because there is so much land.

Well, then let’s use more land and less land as evidence to compensate.

With a limit of ten years, those with more land can enjoy a higher level of treatment.

But the maximum cannot exceed the model worker of each team.

For example, this old man, your family has one hundred acres of land, which is more than most people, even more than other people in your team, then you can enjoy similar treatment to the model workers in your team.

For example, he can receive two sets of new clothes a year, so you can also receive two sets.

Of course, this period is only ten years at most. After ten years, everyone will be the same. How do you feel? "

"What if someone has a thousand acres at home?"

"Of course he can enjoy the same treatment as a model worker, while you can only be ranked second and enjoy the second-class treatment."

"This, this is reasonable!"

The old man didn't bother much.

Others are clear that he will definitely not be willing to quit the county collective.

There are so many people here, and they are having a good time every day, which is much happier than him digging in the soil alone.

What's more, here there is no need to worry about food and clothing, there is no need to worry about the son's job, and there is no need to worry about the schooling of the grandchildren.

It can be said that all his dreams over the years have been realized here. So, what else does he want?

As for the one hundred acres of land?
This little land cannot do this.

In this way, those with a lot of land will be solved.As for those who have little or no land, let alone those who wish to stay in the collective for the rest of their lives.

As for the compensation given to those people, it is not that they have no chance to get it. At most, they can work harder and be a model worker.

Besides, the other party's advantage only lasts for ten years. After ten years, everyone will be the same. But if they are still model workers, they will be much more advanced than the other party.

Thinking of this, there was a flood of responses for a while.

They are all voices that agree with the Land Management Law.

At this time, even if there are still people with different opinions, they can only be drowned in this crowd.

After all, [-]% of the people agreed. Even if they didn't agree, what could they do.

Who makes them reluctant to part with this county collective?

……

Seeing such a spectacular scene, the children of the family who provoked the trouble were all filled with regret.

They didn't expect that they originally thought they could take this opportunity to force the government to repeal this law, but they were instigated by the other party to rebel with just a few words.

"What a bunch of shit!"

In a restaurant in the distance, Mr. Zhao cursed secretly, and then left angrily.

Now that the overall situation here has been decided, there is nothing he can do.

Out of sight, out of mind, he might as well go home and fish, so as not to be upset here.

As for the land issue, just do whatever you want, he doesn’t want to worry about it anymore!

"Hey, Old Zhao!"

……

the other side.

After all the people agreed to hand over their land to the collective, Chen Chuanguang sent someone to register and then started unified planning.

He first copied the previous model of official fields, such as ensuring that every field could be watered, and carried out the so-called "every mile of land must have a canal, and every acre of field must have a ditch!"

After that, he sent people to explore mines and coal mines, and began to open furnaces to make steel and make fertilizers.

After all, if you want to expand the population, the first thing you have to solve is the food problem.

Only when there is enough food, people will spontaneously give birth to children and expand the group spontaneously.

Of course, in addition to this, he also set up a breeding farm to raise pigs, cattle, chickens, ducks, rabbits, and of course fish and shrimp... He tried his best to ensure the supply of meat, eggs, and milk for everyone, so that everyone could be fully fed. Eat well!
And after hearing his ambitious goal, needless to say, the people in the city became more motivated than the others.

Chickens, ducks, fish, eggs, and milk are good things that most of them eat at most three or two times a year. Now they have collectively started to breed them on a large scale.

There is no need to guess in the future. They will definitely be able to eat meat until they are full and even vomit at every meal.

Thinking of that wonderful life, no one would complain about taking up the land anymore.

To put it bluntly, even if they still have the land in their hands, they can only live a life of big fish and meat for a few years. But now, they can live day by day.

……

The people in the city are proactive, but the major families in the city feel that it is even more difficult.

"Master, there is no firewood at home!"

“If you don’t have firewood, go buy it outside!”

"The key is that no one is selling it! They all took the firewood to the canteen and the bathhouse, and no one is willing to sell it to us.

By the way, they also called us Shi Lao Kou, and scolded everyone who walked by! "

"Don't worry about them! If this happens, no one will live in our woodshed. Let's tear it down!"

"That...that..."

"That, that, that, hurry up and get everyone out to work!"

For a time, each family was demolishing the houses and chopping down the benches.

As for letting them go outside to chop firewood, they don't have the ability, and they can't bear the hardship.

Even the wood that was removed from the house was processed a little before being put into the woodshed, causing the concubines who were responsible for lighting the fire and cooking to curse.

For a time, all the families were quarreling.

There is no more harmony than before.

However, not long after, another piece of bad news reached the ears of the family heads.

"Dad, Yuan Wang from West Street just voted in!"

"Voted?"

"Yes! Surrendered! Then Wang Yuanwai personally went to the county government office, handed over all his land deeds, and joined that hateful county collective!"

"This old dog, it's only been a few days, and he can't hold on any longer. He is really a small-time man, and he can't stand on the stage!"

……

A few days later, the eldest son of the Zhao family hurried home again.

“Dad, the Linjiang Tower Poetry Club doesn’t want me anymore, saying that my character is not good and I’m not on the same level as them.

Dad, don't you think they just joined that county collective and became teachers? Why are they so crazy? "

On this day, the boss of the Zhao family returned home staring at a pair of panda eyes.

"What's wrong? Got into a fight?"

"Dad, they scolded me, but I wasn't convinced. It turned out that there were so many of them that I couldn't beat them!"

"Then just ignore them!"

"Dad, you don't know. As long as I go out, someone will point fingers at me. There is no way I can stop it."

"Then you go somewhere else!"

"But it's no fun to stay at home! Xiao Taohong and the others have left, and all the brothels in the city have closed. There is no place for the children to play."

Mr. Zhao took a deep breath and said: "There are books at home, you can read them!"

"Dad, those are all outdated. Now they teach new arithmetic, people and nature, statistics, physics and chemistry, computers, and industrial production...

Dad, we are falling behind! "

"Go away!"

Mr. Zhao cursed angrily, then returned to the bedroom and threw them hard.

Unexpectedly, a few days later, he heard words he didn't want to hear again.

"Dad, let's admit defeat! I really can't stand it anymore! I have no friends, no companions, and no one to even talk to me. As soon as I go out, someone will scold me, and even my dreams are filled with scolds.

Dad, I really can't stand it anymore! "

"If you can't bear it, just lie down and go somewhere else! The inheritance of our family is what your ancestors have worked so hard to save, and you can't give it to others in vain!"

……

So, another three days.

"Dad, our food has been eaten, and the last cow has been eaten. If you don't think of a way, we will have to be vegetarian from now on. We can only eat white rice and white noodles!"

"Eating white rice and white flour won't kill anyone! Those guys outside can't even eat it if they want to!"

"Dad, I can eat it now, and I can eat it every day, every meal!"

"Get out, get out!"

……

"Dad, the third child suddenly couldn't pull himself down, and he was wailing in the latrine for a long time. Please go and have a look!"

"Have you invited the doctor yet?"

"The doctors are all gone! They all went to the county collective. They didn't treat us and said we didn't contribute to the county collective!"

"These are wolf-hearted things! Forget it, let the third child do it by himself. He is constipated. Just dig it out with your hands!"

"Pull it out?"

"Hurry up and go! By the way, tell your girls to put some leaves and flower petals when cooking. This can prevent constipation!"

"All right!"

……

"Dad, there's no salt!"

"Go to the Lu family and borrow some. The salt shop they open should be enough for us!"

……

"Dad, three more families went to the county government. I saw new clothes and shoes on their boats today."

"It's not like you don't have any? Do we care about those?"

"This is different, it's printed!"

"Don't make me angry and I'll tell you!"

……

"Dad, I really don't want to continue like this anymore. Look at what we eat every day, burnt pancakes, leaves that are either salty or sour, and look at what this is, it's a leaf.

Dad, our life is worse than that of a dog, how long are you going to persist?

Are you willing to hold on until we are all dead? "

Mr. Zhao was speechless.

Only then did he realize the viciousness of the county magistrate.

The other party actually put them on the opposite side of everyone, and directly cut off their contact with other people.

Not only did they no longer have any support in life, they even said bad things to them.

It can be said that this is a multi-faceted blow to them materially, spiritually, and even ethically.

So, can they really survive?
Mr. Zhao was deeply suspicious.

At this time, his eldest son hurried over again.

"Dad, my mother is in trouble again. If this continues, my mother won't be able to survive for long!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhao suddenly clenched his fists, and then suddenly released them.

After taking a long breath, he stood up, straightened his clothes, wiped his haggard face, and said calmly:

"Let's go to the county government office!" (End of chapter)
