Pioneer of the Rebirth Era
Chapter 360: Help, but not everyone
There is a small van in front and several small trucks in the back. The mountain road is narrow and rugged and the big car can't pass it. And even such a small car can only go to the township level at most. To reach the destination, it takes more than two hours of walking on the mountain road.
The bumpy ride along the way made everyone's faces look ugly. After walking down the mountain road for more than two hours, even if the girls behind were no longer carrying goods, their faces still turned sallow.
"How about we go to the village in front and you stay there to rest, or we can rush there tomorrow." Yang Dongxu suggested when he saw that several people's legs were shaking when they walked.
Walking down this long mountain road, even a martial arts practitioner like him is out of breath. You can imagine how tired the girls are. And Leslie Cheung and Andy Lau were still carrying the goods. Although the boxes they were moving were not big, they contained a lot of stuff.
They were all heavy stationery and stuff.
"How long does it take to get to the place?" Leslie Cheung asked as he walked. Yang Dongxu proposed to rest several times on the way, but he vetoed it. He knew that although everyone was tired now, they couldn't rest if they still wanted to move forward, otherwise
Unless you rest for a long time, you will definitely not want to leave after sitting down.
"It will take at least an hour at the current speed." Yang Dongxu has been to the Hope Primary School at the destination, so he knows the approximate distance.
"Mei Gu and Xiaoyu are resting in front. You and I will go there first, and they will meet again tomorrow." Leslie Cheung said.
"No, let's go there together. It's still early, so let's walk slowly." Anita Mui shook her head.
Although she wanted to rest, she didn't want to give up halfway. This was not her way of doing things.
She didn't want to stay, Maggie Cheung definitely didn't want to stay either, and Andy Lau didn't want to stay. Seeing the three people sweating, Yang Dongxu said: "You guys give your things to the porters, holding a walking stick in your hand
Just hold on, I'll help Sister Mei and Sister Yu go."
"Okay." Leslie Cheung was not polite.
Useless insistence at this time will only slow down the progress of the team and make the porters more tired. Since we don't have the energy to help now, we should try not to cause chaos.
"Those who are carrying things should keep walking at their own pace. There is no need to wait for us." Yang Dongxu shouted to the porters.
Then, holding Anita Mui and Maggie Cheung in one hand, and holding a walking stick in the other, the group continued to set off.
From around two o'clock after having dinner in the township, they walked until after five o'clock, and the group finally reached their destination. The porter first arrived in the village, and there were many villagers who had come all the way out of the village to pick them up. Seeing all the caring people
, but with a somewhat guilty face, Anita Mui felt that all the hard work along the way was worth it.
It soon became dark, and the lights in the room flickered. This mountain village still couldn't afford electricity. Many houses were made of wood, and some were thatched houses.
But despite being poor, they still entertained Yang Dongxu and his party with great enthusiasm. No matter what the villagers gave or how much food they gave, Yang Dongxu would accept it with a smile. They would definitely not take back the money, so he would give more.
Clothes, shoes, etc.
"Wash your feet first, and then pop the blisters on your feet, otherwise you won't be able to walk tomorrow." After dinner, Yang Dongxu walked in with a footbath under the flickering light.
There were no extra houses in the village, so a few people lived in the village chief's house. The two girls slept on the bed, and the three men slept on makeshift beds made of wooden boards and stools. The quilts they wore were a little shabby, but they were all clean and comfortable.
With the fragrance of sunshine.
"Xiaoyu and I came first. I didn't expect that walking would be so tiring." Anita Mui, who was lying on the bed as if her whole body was falling apart, supported her body and started doing it.
She is not a person who has experienced hardships. Her father died young when she was young. She lived in embarrassment when she was a child. In order to become famous, she also worked hard whether it was singing or dancing. But after walking down the mountain road for more than three hours, not to mention
She almost couldn't survive even big men like Leslie Cheung and Andy Lau.
"You should wash it first." Leslie Cheung took out a pack of cigarettes, took one in his mouth, and handed one to Andy Lau. When Yang Dongxu signaled not to speak, he asked, "Where is Xiaoxu's school?"
"On the east side of the village, it's about twenty minutes away from the village. There is a gentle slope over there that is very large, which is very suitable for building a school and a playground." Yang Dongxu said.
"How many students are there now?"
"It's more than 300 for the first to fifth graders."
"There are so many children in the village?" Andy Lau was stunned for a moment.
"Not all the children in this village are children. The reason why we chose to build the school in that place is because there are seven villages within a radius of ten kilometers from this village. Such a primary school can cover all school-age children in the seven villages.
.”
"Ten kilometers! It's so far, how long do they need to walk to go to school?" Maggie Cheung said in surprise. She has been taking a bus since she was a child, and it is hard for her to imagine what it would be like to walk ten kilometers on a mountain road to go to school.
"This is already very good. Compared with the previous dozens of kilometers of mountain roads to go to school in the villages and towns, ten kilometers is very close. And the school also has children from villages more than thirty kilometers away."
"More than 30 kilometers of mountain roads, more than 60 kilometers and more than 100 miles back and forth. How long will this take on the road? Is there still time to study?" Anita Mui frowned.
"The school has built a cafeteria and dormitories. Children who live too far away bring food to the cafeteria and process it for them. It is not a big problem to go back once a week or half a month." Yang Dongxu said.
Yang Dongxu carefully considered the location of each school and tried to use the money wisely without wasting it. Therefore, some of the school's facilities are very complete.
"Besides supplies, is there anything else the school lacks now?" Although he had not met those children yet, Leslie Cheung was moved by the children's desire for knowledge after walking more than 30 kilometers of mountain roads to study.
"In fact, there is not much shortage of supplies. Although walking on the mountain road is difficult, many people in nearby villages are willing to help carry things in. Coupled with the lunch subsidy program for students from the Runyu Foundation, their daily lives can be guaranteed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The main concern now is the teachers. This place is too poor. Although the basics of the school are good after it is built, few teachers are willing to teach. The entire school costs 300
There are only three teachers for many students, and one of them is over sixty years old. There is a serious shortage of teachers."
"How can three teachers be enough? Didn't you think of other ways? How about I bear the teacher's salary?" Leslie Cheung frowned.
There are only three teachers for more than 300 students, and one of them is already elderly. He would not have believed this difficult situation if he had not heard Yang Dongxu tell it personally.
"We are already discussing with the local government, and the Runyu Foundation will bear part of the teacher's salary. Now two teachers have decided to come. After the National Day, they can come over after the handover of their work at the school is clear."
"How about we go to the school and have a look now?" Andy Lau stood up and said.
"It's getting dark. Let's go there tomorrow. The school won't have electricity until the end of the year. It's not powered yet. The students and teachers at the school are probably asleep too. Let's not disturb them yet." Yang Dongxu said.
Wave your hands.
...
Yang Dongxu got up early the next morning. Although the spirits of several people had recovered after a night's rest, their bodies were even more sore, especially their legs, which felt like they were filled with lead.
But even so, Leslie Cheung and others still got up very early, washed up, had breakfast, and then walked to school together. The journey took more than 20 minutes and they walked for more than half an hour.
Although several people frowned because of the soreness in their legs and feet along the way, when they approached the school and heard the sound of reading loudly, everyone couldn't help but smile.
The crisp sound of reading is neat and rhythmic, just like cheerful notes beating in your ears, making people who have endured suffering involuntarily forget their fatigue, and seem to see hope in front of their eyes.
During class time, a few people visited the school without disturbing me. During lunch, the group went to the cafeteria together.
The cafeteria was not big enough for all the school children to eat together. Seeing that the master chef in the cafeteria wanted to prepare a table for a few people, Leslie Cheung quickly waved his hand and said no, and instead lined up like the students to get food.
"Isn't it said that there is a lunch subsidy?" Leslie Cheung didn't dislike the simple meal in front of him, and asked while eating.
"This is already the result of the subsidy. There are still many people who are hungry now, so being full is the prerequisite, and then nutrition." Yang Dongxu took a piece of multi-grain steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth. The noodles were very rough and pricked his mouth, but
The taste is okay.
"How about I pay and subsidize more?" Andy Lau said while taking a sip of porridge.
"This is not a matter of money. The reason for providing lunch subsidies is to reduce the burden on the families of these children who go to school. Otherwise, many parents would rather let their children run around at home than let them go to school.
To put it bluntly, many children in schools now go to school just to eat. So just eat enough and supplement your nutrition as much as possible." Yang Dongxu said helplessly. It's not that he doesn't want to do better, but that he can't do better.
"Just follow the plan made by Runyu. We will try our best to help, but not all of them." Leslie Cheung pondered for a moment, then spoke as if he had tasted the meaning of Yang Dongxu's words.
Several other people heard what Leslie Cheung said. Although they didn't understand everything, they didn't say anything more. They took a lunch break after dinner. A few of them distributed the stationery they brought and played with the children in physical education class for a while in the afternoon.
.
The group returned to the village in the evening and did not stay at the school to disturb them.
The next day, because the blisters on several people's feet had not recovered, the planned departure time was postponed. Several people went to school to work as teachers for a few more days.
After staying for a week, several people were almost ready to leave after their injuries on their feet had almost recovered.
Back in Chengdu, Yang Dongxu took a good shower in the hotel, and then he found a delicious hot pot restaurant, where a few people cooked hot pot.
"Everyone has a song, and I'll give it to you in two days." Yang Dongxu said very gratefully during the meal.
"Let's talk about the song later. We want to do good deeds ourselves. If we don't choose Runyu, we will choose other channels, so you don't have to
I care too much." Leslie Cheung said.
