What Chen Heping said was really bringing up the issue. He would not say that to anyone else. He was really worried that his brother-in-law would suddenly make a fuss.

Village Chief Li paused, then slapped his head cheerfully, "I blame you for not explaining it clearly. That's not what they meant. They didn't mean to raise only the children whose families have lost a member, but to raise all of them together."

"Raise them all together? How do you say that?"

"Listen to me first. Yesterday, you and Director Li raised a similar issue, asking what should be done with these children. Director Li was quite direct. He said this situation exists in every village to some extent, but ours is the only place with more cases. If it were in other villages, they wouldn't just watch a child starve to death. Everyone would give a little bit of food and raise him anyway."

Chen Heping sighed, "That's true, but with our numbers, it's simply impossible... What do you mean one person per family? One bowl of rice per family isn't enough! There are so many children! And there are those who are seven or eight years old. The oldest is around ten or so, and they can only make up a little. What do we need those seven or eight-year-olds for? Even if we go to cut grass, they are not enough."

"I understand this. Listen to me." Village Chief Li was still relatively relaxed when talking about this topic, because his mind had been opened up by this group of people: "Let's talk about raising children together as a village. This will only benefit us and not harm us."

"The thing is, this nursery is like a school for small children. It has nothing to do with elementary school students. It's mostly for those children who can't even run around on their own, let alone those who are still in their cradles."

Chen Heping roughly understood what this meant. "So what kind of subsidy is this? Will Director Li agree? There's no way the villagers would agree to this. This...what should I do?"

"I'll agree." Village Chief Li was now quite confident. "Everyone can send their children there. There'll be someone to look after them, and they'll have food and playtime, and some kind of... early learning or pre-school? Then the adults will have their hands free to work, right? Busy looking after the kids at home? They might as well go out and earn work points, right? How many work points can we earn in a year?"

Chen Heping was stunned: "Yes! I can also go out and earn work points!"

Women's work points are inherently lower than men's, and they often miss out on opportunities to earn work points because they have to take care of children. It's for these and other reasons that women's work points are relatively low.

If someone can look after the children while I can earn work points with peace of mind... I have to say, if this is really the case, I believe many people would really agree.

But... that's not right! ! "Where will the food rations for those children come from? Children are troublesome, they need to eat, drink, and poop. Ordinary people simply can't take care of so many children. And the main purpose is to focus on raising the children of those who have no family, right? But if that's the case, the others might feel that their own children are not getting their due, and they'll definitely make a fuss."

"That's true, but..." Village Chief Li whispered, "I've learned that these immigrants are not simple people. If we get along well with them, it will be good for all of us. It seems that we're suffering a little now, but I don't think it's that serious. Among them are doctors, carpenters, blacksmiths and other craftsmen. With these, sooner or later everyone will benefit. You also know that our village is very remote. How difficult would it be to see a doctor for a disease?"

"You know, you need a doctor before you can apply for a health center. The country has been vigorously promoting this in recent years, but why do most villages still have no health centers? They can't even set up a clinic? Isn't it because there are no doctors? But now we have doctors and even teachers, so the health centers and schools can all get big subsidies, and the town will pay half of their salaries. It's not certain whether our production team will pay for it, but maybe we can talk to the town and they will pay for it all."

"Actually, even if our team pays a little bit ourselves, it's still very cost-effective. We can get medicine here for any minor ailments."

You know, without a doctor there is no clinic, and without a clinic you can't get medicine. This is really a vicious cycle, so if there is a choice, everyone will definitely hope that their village can have a clinic and a school.

Not to mention the health centers which play the biggest role, people also care about primary schools.

In the past, many people were reluctant to let their children go to school, but that was different from now. At that time, children had to go to school far away, and it would take most of the day to go and back, so they had no time to help with the work in the fields. You know, if you work in the fields, even a child will get work points, it’s just a matter of more or less, but no one would complain about having too little of this kind of thing.

It would be great if there was a school in your village, because children can go to school just by going out, and they can come back anytime and anywhere when they need help, without wasting time on the road. In this way, everyone will naturally want their children to go to school. Who doesn't know that studying is good?

Look at those who have received education and are now able to work as accountants or cashiers. Are these all free work points?

Go to school!! Of course I have to go to school!!

Chen Heping asked in a low voice, "Are there many teachers among them?"

"Of course they are. They are all literate, and even the children can write beautifully. We can't let our children fall behind too much. This is a good thing that is already here."

After hearing all this, Chen Heping also felt that the nursery was indeed important: "Come, let's think about it again."

…

Everyone cares about different things, some people think bigger, some think closer, some think further, some think closer.

At this moment, Tang Li and his wife are only thinking about the problems of their small family.

Watching her son go to take a shower behind the Anywhere Door, Chen Fei said to her husband, "You said our son was single before he traveled through time. What will he do after he gets here? I arranged many blind dates for him before the New Year, and I was waiting for him to go on some of them after the New Year. Now all of them have been canceled. Sigh..."

Their son is busy with work and doesn't pay much attention to his relationship, so they are quite worried about this. But since their son doesn't pay much attention, they will help him pay attention!

That's why he arranged so many blind dates, but who would have thought that after so many dates and finding so many connections, he would end up being tricked by this time travel thing?

Tang Li smiled and said, "It's a good thing it didn't work out. If he happened to come to our house for dinner when it was halfway done and then traveled through time... that would have been terrible."

"Ouch!" Chen Fei punched Tang Li. "Who told you that? I mean, he couldn't do it before, so wouldn't it be even harder here?"
