Rebirth 1989: My Unlucky Career

Zhao Zhuo looked at the Sanqi with such high quality and asked excitedly:

"Are all the Panax notoginseng grown in our village this big?"

Teacher Qi nodded and said:

"That's right, the ones I grow are of average quality, but the good ones grown by others are even bigger than mine!"

Hearing such a reply, Zhao Zhuo suddenly beamed with joy.

Sun Xiaoyu saw Zhao Zhuo's excitement and couldn't help asking:

"Why, is this Panax notoginseng valuable?"

Zhao Zhuo nodded heavily:

"That's right, Panax notoginseng of such good quality can be said to be quite expensive!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhuo's eyes suddenly lit up:

"If we in Huaping Village encourage the villagers to plant a large amount of Panax notoginseng, they will surely make a fortune!"

After a pause, Zhao Zhuo continued:

"Isn't this the best way to solve the problem of students not coming to school!"

Hearing this, Sun Xiaoyu and Teacher Qi were stunned:

"What does planting Panax notoginseng have to do with whether students come to school or not?"

Zhao Zhuo explained:

“Many families now do not allow their children to go to school, mainly because of too much farm work and poor economic conditions at home.

Compared with other cash crops, the cultivation of Panax notoginseng does not require too many manpower and can still make money.

In this way, won’t the children have the conditions to come to class?”

Hearing this, Teacher Qi's eyes lit up at first, and then he asked with some doubts:

"Is this thing really guaranteed to make money?"

Teacher Qi’s words represent Huaping Village’s biggest concern.

After all, most of the villagers in Huaping Village are not people who have enough food to try.

If they give up growing potatoes and try to grow panax notoginseng instead, but fail to make any money, it means that all their hard work has yielded nothing. That is not a question of not making money, but a question of not having anything to eat!

The cost of trial and error was too high, which made Teacher Qi feel hesitant.

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo smiled slightly:

"I can understand your concerns, Teacher Qi. Don't worry, since I dare to say this, I will definitely protect everyone."

After hearing Zhao Zhuo's assurance, Teacher Qi's worries were slightly relieved.

Teacher Qi nodded:

"In that case, I suggest you talk to the village chief first, and then ask him to notify you in the village."

Zhao Zhuo nodded.

They had just arrived and did not know much about the local situation. At this time, Village Chief Ma needed to come forward.

…

The two came to the village committee, which was also a slightly dilapidated house, and Zhao Zhuo met Village Chief Ma again.

After explaining the purpose of his visit to Village Chief Ma, Village Chief Ma was also stunned by the news.

"You mean to say that the panax notoginseng grown in every household is actually a good thing?"

Zhao Zhuo had already seen the expression of Village Chief Ma on Teacher Qi's face.

So, Zhao Zhuo nodded with familiarity and repeated to Village Chief Ma what he had just told Teacher Qi.

After listening carefully, Village Chief Ma couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

On the one hand, being able to lead everyone out of poverty and become rich is what Village Chief Ma longs for.

But on the other hand, he had to consider how feasible this matter was, so as not to lead the villagers down the wrong path and lead to serious consequences.

Zhao Zhuo saw the concerns of Village Chief Ma at a glance, so he smiled lightly and said:

"I know that this kind of thing is empty talk and it is useless to just say it.

Well, let me inform everyone that if you still have Panax notoginseng at home, as long as the quality is acceptable, I will pay for them all.

When it is actually replaced with real money, everyone's worries will naturally be dispelled."

Upon hearing Zhao Zhuo's suggestion, Village Chief Ma suddenly felt a little embarrassed:

"Mr. Zhao, you came to our place to do charity and help us, but you were asked to spend money to purchase it first. This is definitely not okay!"

With that said, Village Chief Ma picked up the big speaker on the table, turned it on and shouted into the loudspeaker:

"Dear fellow villagers! Everyone, come to the open space at the head of the village for a meeting now!

Things are very important, say it again..."

Village Chief Ma shouted into the loudspeaker three times, then turned off the loudspeaker and said to Zhao Zhuo:

"Mr. Zhao, let's go to the village. I'll tell everyone about this."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo asked in confusion:

"I just shouted these two times, will it work?"

Village Chief Ma smiled confidently:

"In our Huaping Village, the only way to contact us is through this big speaker.

Therefore, as long as you shout, everyone will rush over as soon as possible."

Zhao Zhuo nodded, indicating that he had learned a lot.

…

So, the three people came to the village together.

When the two of them arrived, there were already villagers waiting.

"Village Chief, what are you announcing? Are you so anxious?"

"That's right, why don't you think there's a meeting coming soon? I was so anxious that I almost wore my shoes backwards."

…

There were doubts among the villagers, but Village Chief Ma smiled faintly:

"We'll wait until everyone is here. Anyway, it's a good thing!"

Hearing that it was a good thing, everyone became more interested.

After about ten minutes, when everyone finally arrived, Village Chief Ma stood on a high platform and said loudly:

"Let me first introduce to you the two people next to me, Mr. Zhao and Miss Sun. They came to our Huaping Village specifically to teach our children in the new school! Let's applaud to express our welcome to these two people.

.”

After hearing this, the villagers below immediately applauded enthusiastically.

After all, the next generation's affairs are always the most important. Everyone was very moved when they heard that Zhao Zhuo and Sun Xiaoyu were here to help with the education issues in Huaping Village.

Zhao Zhuo took this opportunity, walked up to the stage, looked at the villagers and said:

"When everyone heard that we were here to help build a school, they applauded one after another, which moved me very much. From this, I can also see that everyone attaches great importance to the education of the next generation."

Having said this, many people nodded subconsciously.

But Zhao Zhuo changed the subject:

"However, when I inspected our schools, I discovered a very important problem, that is, many children who should go to school did not show up in school!"

After hearing this, many people silently lowered their heads in shame.

Zhao Zhuo sighed and then said:

"I know that most people don't want their children to go to school, but their family conditions really don't allow it.

But here, what I want to say is that no matter what the conditions are, children’s education must not fall behind!

Because only by receiving education can we have the opportunity to change our destiny. If we give up the education of the next generation because of the current difficulties, the next generation will only continue to be poor."

After saying this, the villagers were silent for a while, and suddenly a strange voice sounded:

"You can't stand and talk without your back hurting!"
