After Xiang Nan heard the news, he and Shuihua went over to see him.

When I arrived at his house, I saw Ma Defu drinking with Teacher Bai.

Because he is diligent and effective in his work, and Xiang Nan helps you publicize it, which has established a good reputation for him, Defu'er is now prosperous in officialdom. At the age of twenty-six, he has been promoted to the director of Yuquanying Economic Development Zone, with a rank of

Associate subject.

"Teacher Bai~" Xiang Nan and Shui Hua walked in.

"Hey, why are you two here?" Teacher Bai was surprised.

"I heard that you were injured, so I came to see you." Xiang Nan explained, "How are you? Where are you injured?"

"Hey, he's not hurt either." Teacher Bai waved his hand.

"Brother Yongfu'er, my dad was not injured. Those parents didn't dare to hit him, they were just trying to scare him," Mai Miao explained.

Teacher Bai smiled ashamedly, "Come on, Yongfu'er, let's drink two cups together."

"Okay." Xiang Nan nodded and sat down with him.

"Here, I'll fill it up for you." Defu poured wine for Xiang Nan.

"Thank you." Xiang Nan smiled, holding some peanuts, and asked while eating, "Teacher Bai, I heard that you were scolded by your parents because of several children who dropped out of school?"

"Hey, I'm ashamed." Teacher Bai smiled bitterly, "I've been teaching all my life. I don't dare to say how good my teaching is, but I do it seriously and conscientiously. I think it's to train all the children to become talents and get out of Yuquan Camp and out of the country.

Xia has a better future. But the children’s parents don’t understand.

Such a young child, only thirteen years old, has not even graduated from elementary school, and is going to work to make money. What do they know? They have no culture, no knowledge, and their thoughts are not mature.

If they go to work now, their lives will be ruined. In the future, when they get married and have children, they will still have to work and farm. They will be like this for the rest of their lives. They will be stuck at the bottom with no chance to turn around.

They always say that you, Mai Miao, and Shui Hua didn't go to school, but now they are all great writers, bosses, and managers, so their children can be successful even if they don't study.

However, they don’t understand how small the probability is. There are hundreds of millions of farmers in China. How many farmer writers and farmers are there in China? Hey, they are short-sighted and short-sighted! Hey, the poor children are all given up by their parents.

Ruined.”

…

"Teacher Bai, don't be angry. You have to think like this. If you didn't go to school at that time, you really had no way out. You had to either farm or herd sheep, and you would have to live in that poor ravine for the rest of your life.

But now the situation is different. You can make money without going to school. Look at how many people who open restaurants, shops, and hotels in Yuquanying have made a fortune. They don’t have any education, most of them have primary school diplomas."

Ma Defu advised, "That's why I say that their way out is not just studying..."

"You fart!" Teacher Bai slapped the table and shocked everyone, "If you don't study, you have no future. You just think you can make money now, why don't you think about the future.

Without knowledge, they can only work and farm all their lives. They are only thirteen years old now, and they have to work and farm all their lives. In the next fifty or sixty years, they will never have the chance to change their destiny.

And when they have children in the future, because they have limited knowledge and limited education, their children's education will also have problems. At that time, one generation after another, they will never be able to get ahead and will always be trapped in the world.

It’s on the ground floor.”

When Ma Defu heard what he said, he suddenly looked embarrassed.

"Teacher Bai, you are right. There is no way out if you don't study." Xiang Nan nodded, "As far as I know, the mechanization rate of foreign farms can reach 90%. Even harvesting grapes is done by

Mechanical responsibility.

Seven or eight people can manage tens of thousands of acres of land. In other words, with so much land in our Yuquan camp, one shift can manage it in the future.

As for factories, there are now computer-controlled robots in foreign countries. There are no workers in the workshops. Everything is automated and intelligent.

In the future, such agricultural machinery and intelligent robots will definitely become popular. By then, a large number of workers and farmers will be replaced.

At that time, there will be no culture and no knowledge, what will you do with these people?"

Hearing what he said, Ma Defu, Teacher Bai, Shui Hua'er, and Mai Miao'er were all frightened.

"Of course, the improvement of science and technology can eliminate many jobs, but it can also create many new jobs. For example, the invention of the train made the escorts lose their jobs, but it also created conductors, conductors, and train drivers.

The promotion and popularization of automated agricultural machinery and intelligent robots will definitely eliminate the vast majority of farmers and workers, but it will also bring many new job opportunities.

But no matter what, people with knowledge and culture live better lives. In this society, there are few things like learning, as long as you work hard, you can get better." Xiang Nan saw that everyone was frightened.

Realizing that he was speaking too early, he quickly softened his words.

Teacher Bai nodded, "Yong Fu'er is right. The only chance for poor people to change their destiny is to study. If you don't study, you will always be poor, always at the bottom, and unable to turn around in your life. But those parents just don't understand. They have to

If you let your children drop out of school, your heart will be so blocked!"

"Teacher Bai, it's useless for you to sulk yourself." Xiang Nan advised, "I have two ideas."

"Oh, tell me quickly." Teacher Bai asked quickly after hearing this.

"The first idea is that Shuihua and I donate a sum of money to fund scholarships to reward children who come from poor families but study hard. It stimulates their ambition and allows parents to enjoy the benefits and prevent their children from prematurely

He dropped out of school." Xiang Nan explained.

"The second idea is that I take the lead in appealing to the higher authorities to formulate corresponding laws and regulations to restrain these parents, not to let their children drop out of school at will, and to ensure their right to receive education. What do you think of my idea?"

"Okay, very good." After hearing this, Teacher Bai felt as if he was drinking fine nectar and suddenly became happy.

After hearing Xiang Nan's idea, Ma Defu agreed very much.

In fact, he did not want to see children drop out of school. He also knew that studying was a very good way out. If he had not gone to an agricultural school, he would not have become a civil servant and received the iron rice bowl of the government.

"That amount of 300,000 yuan will be donated every year to reward outstanding students and help students with family difficulties." Xiang Nan asked again, "Is this enough money?"

"That's enough, that's enough. You don't need that much." Teacher Bai quickly waved his hand, "One hundred thousand, I think that's enough."

"Hey, I just want parents to know that there is a house of gold in the book, there is a beauty in the book, and there is a way to make money if you study well." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "And it's not just for primary school students, everyone from our Yuquan Camp

From elementary school to junior high school to high school, as long as he is willing to learn, I will support him. We should have more talents here. If one of them comes back to build his hometown in the future, my money will not be in vain."

"Yongfu'er, thank you, my dear classmates!" Teacher Bai said movedly.
