The gods' speeches continued, and the military parade in Yanyang City had not yet ended.
The human race is already gearing up, and they really want to step back into the center of the historical stage.
······
In a village in the north of Yan Country, Lai Fu went to the village and took out the latest newspaper, and read it comfortably in his own yard.
He is 30 years old this year. He just came back from working in the north city some time ago. He took advantage of the approaching New Year to have a good rest.
Outside the door, a young man came back with a cloth bag. He looked at his father at the door and walked towards the house without saying a word.
"Boy, didn't you just take an exam? How did you do?"
Lai Fu said something that frightened every Yan country student. At this time, he had put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at his son who was about to go back to the house.
In the six years since I came to Yan Country, the children I grew up with back then are now taller than me. Especially in the past two years, meat and milk have flowed into the village, and the children's height has grown rapidly.
At this time, Yanran was already half a head taller than me, who was about 1.6 meters tall.
"I···"
The child didn't dare to say a word and held on to his schoolbag tightly.
"Tell me, how much did you get in the exam?"
Lai Fu rolled the newspaper in his hand into a circle and prepared to start enforcing family rules.
"Dad, don't be like this, my sister is still at home!"
Even though he was much taller than his father and very strong, he was still afraid of the "weapon" in Lai Fu's hand.
"Forget it, the New Year is coming soon, I won't deal with you today."
Lai Fu put down the newspaper in his hand and started reading again.
He frowned, picked up the newspaper in his hand and walked towards his friend's house.
At this time, a small table had been set up in the yard, with a few small dishes and some wine, and a group of men from the village had gathered around it.
"Laifu is here, just as he was saying, come and sit down!"
Zhou Zhuang picked up a small stool from the side and asked Lai Fu to sit down, and then the group started discussing again.
"Brother Zhou, you've been a soldier, tell me how we did this time!"
A bald man holding a newspaper asked.
"Yes, Brother Zhou, today's newspaper mentioned the three fronts and the expedition that we will be participating in with the Shenqi Nation. What is it exactly?"
Lai Fu also asked.
Zhou Zhuang was originally a soldier of Yan State. When the army was integrated, he was arranged to retire to the reserve army because of his old age. Now he is the deputy commander of the reserve army of Beicheng and is very prestigious in the village.
He had participated in the Central Plains War and recorded the war. He was very knowledgeable and people in the village would come to ask him about anything.
"Don't worry, everyone. Our army this time is composed of veterans who have been reorganized after training, and they are all equipped with firearms. You all know what a gun is, right? It's a real weapon."
The people around him nodded and watched Brother Zhou continue talking without interrupting.
"The army's reorganization this time is to deal with this war. Even I am defeated by their strength. They are much stronger than that Shenqi country. Back then, in the battle of Luji..."
Brother Zhou's explanation lasted from day to afternoon, until it was dark. Lai Fu's wife called him to go for dinner, only to find that it was already dark.
"Brother Zhou, I'm going back to have the New Year's Eve dinner first."
Lai Fu finished the wine in his hand and then followed his wife home.
"Okay, come back later!"
Brother Zhou stood up and walked Lai Fu to the door. Seeing that it was getting dark, he called these fellow villagers to go home.
"Laifu, look at you! Your son didn't even pass the exam, and you just come here every day to discuss these things. Those are things the king wants to discuss, what does it have to do with you?"
The daughter-in-law has complained about this countless times. In the past few years, Lai Fu has been working in an engineering team in the north city. Although the family's conditions have improved a lot, the two of them meet less often. Whenever Lai Fu comes back, it must be very rare.
"Ah~ Wife! Wait until I accumulate points for two years, then I'll allocate a house to our family in North City and bring the child to the city for education. If things really don't work out then, let him join the army. Although Yan Country is relatively peaceful now, that's also the result of our king moving the war to foreign lands. The child still has a bright future in the army."
Lai Fu seemed a little drunk, staggering while talking to his wife.
His wife hurried to support him, fearing that he would fall.
"Wife, when our son grows up, I will take you to Luolong Mountain. I heard it's very beautiful there. A while ago, one of us went to Luolong Mountain for a trip right after we got married."
"Okay, just eat the New Year's Eve dinner first and stop talking nonsense here. There's a theater troupe coming to the village later. After you finish eating, set off the firecrackers first. As for going to Brother Zhou's house, we can talk about it later."
······
After supporting each other all the way, they both arrived home. At this time, the old lady had already prepared the meal.
Now that Yan State has increased its grain production and has a wider variety of foods, it has opened up the market accordingly and started to promote small pot meals.
The canteen still exists, but fewer people go there, and at this time, most families are definitely willing to cook their own meals.
“Do it, do it!”
There are three children sitting on the big table. They are the children born by the couple during this period. The current production and sanitary conditions are better, and they have made full preparations for the population explosion in Yan Country.
Moreover, the land is vast and the population is sparse, agricultural productivity has increased, and the food pressure is not too great.
In order to encourage childbirth, Duan Tianming specially arranged doctors in each village to be responsible for related childbirth work, and also set up grassroots health centers to ensure relevant basic medical care.
