When Little Ya came out of his home, Wang Chen felt quite heavy.
He didn't expect that there would be such a difficult family in Datian Village.
Little Ya's grandfather is very old.
Although the old hunter is experienced, Demon Beast in the mountains is not a vegetarian.
He is old and frail, and his combat power and reaction ability are incomparable to those when he was young.
This time I had bad luck going into the mountains and almost lost my life.
But no matter how dangerous it is, Grandpa Little Ya cannot just lie at home and rest.
Without enough food, a family of three cannot survive this cold winter.
Wang Chen asked Xiao He: "Are there many families like this in the village?"
Xiao He hesitated for a moment and replied, "Some."
Datian Village There are nearly 400 households, and they are bound to be both blessed and poor. If they have enough food and clothing, they will have troubles.
There are also some people who were originally living a good life, but because the breadwinner of the family had an accident or disappeared, their family situation immediately dropped and life became difficult.
This is the case with Little Ya.
When her parents were still alive, having enough food and clothing was not a problem.
Now the two siblings rely on their grandfather to hunt for their livelihood. It is strange to live a good life!
Xiao He also revealed a situation to Wang Chen.
That is the poor households in the village, most of whom have foreign surnames.
If the villagers with the three surnames of Huang, Xu, and Chen are in a situation of lack of food and clothing, the clan will more or less provide some rice and grain support, so that people will not starve to death.
But their foreign surnames left them to fend for themselves.
The Little Ya family just has a foreign surname!
After understanding these circumstances, Wang Chen took Xiao He back to Village Chief's residence, and then gave Crane Message to several elders in the village.
The three elders rushed over quickly.
Wang Chen didn't waste any time and told them what happened just now.
After listening, the three of them looked at each other, and one of them, Mr. Chen, immediately said, "Village Chief, we Chen Clan are willing to help Old Lu's family and ensure that the three of them have enough food and clothing this winter."
The other Mr. Huang and Mr. Xu quickly responded, "We are willing too!"
How much food can three people, one old, two young, eat in one winter?
Not to mention Chen Clan, even if he pays for it out of his own pocket, there is no problem at all.
It's not a good deal to spend this little money to please Wang Chen!
They are all very smart!
"It's not just his family's problem."
Wang Chen waved his hand and said, "As far as I know, there are many families like this in our village."
The three elders immediately shut their mouths.
It's one thing to help one household, but it's another thing to help dozens of households.
Wang Chen did not expect them to carry forward the spirit of integrity. In fact, he had already made a decision. "My idea is to list these needy households separately, and the village will provide unified assistance, and the relevant expenses will be paid from the public treasury."
"To ensure food, clothing, medical care, housing, and burial, just call it Five Guarantees Household."
"As for the standard of Five Guarantees Household, it is up to you to set it, and everything will be implemented in accordance with this standard in the future."
"What do you think?"
The three elders looked at each other, then lowered their heads. "It all depends on your orders."
Wang Chen This is not the tone of discussion.
But decision.
If Huang Deqi, Temple Priestess Xu and others were still there, they would definitely dare to argue with Wang Chen, or be submissive and submissive.
But now the heads of the three major surnames have been brought to bear. Several elders have neither the courage nor the strength to fight against Wang Chen, so they can only swallow the bitter water in their stomachs.
Wang Chen knew their thoughts very well and said with a smile, "I know that most of these needy households have foreign surnames. If you three surnames are allowed to subsidize them, you guys will definitely be reluctant."
The expressions of the three elders suddenly changed, and they repeatedly denied it and expressed their willingness to do so.
Wang Chen was too lazy to watch their performance. "This is settled like this. I will pay all the subsidies for the first batch of Five Guarantees Household this winter."
He seized a large amount of supplies from Gray Wolf Bandits, including rice, food, animals, meat, clothing, Pills Talismans and countless weapons.
Just taking out a little bit is enough for these needy households to survive the winter.
But relying solely on Wang Chen's own money is not a long-term solution. After all, he can't stay here forever.
Therefore, it is necessary to formulate a rule that everyone can accept.
"I plan to set up a team of Guard Team, which will be responsible for protecting the safety of the village, and then go into the mountains for hunting regularly."
"The prey is collected into the public treasury and will be used as expenses for supporting Five Guarantees Household in the future."
"Of course, the members of Guard Team will not work in vain. They can record their scores based on their ability."
"Just call it work points."
"Villagers who perform labor services in the future will also be able to receive work points."
"Work points are used to exchange materials in the public treasury. The more work you do, the more you work, it is fair and reasonable."
"As for the scoring and redemption standards, it is also up to you to discuss and decide."
"What do you think?"
The three elders were stunned.
Five Guarantees Household, Guard Team, work points...
Their aging brains suddenly received such a large amount of information, and it was inevitable that they would become unresponsive.
But after careful consideration of the opinions put forward by Wang Chen, it is quite feasible.
Although absolute fairness does not exist, no matter how well the rules are established, there will definitely be bias in the implementation process.
But as long as the most basic things are guaranteed, I believe the villagers will be happy to accept it!
"In addition..."
Wang Chen has not finished what he said, "I plan to build an elementary school in the village and recruit all the young children. The educated elders will be responsible for teaching."
Mengxue is a school for enlightenment. In the past, children in Datian Village had to go to Wancheng City fifty miles away if they wanted to go to school.
Not to mention the long journey back and forth, the tuition fees in the city are also very high.
So most of the villagers teach their children themselves.
However, such educational levels are uneven, with huge differences between the upper and lower limits.
Must change.
"Let's call this school Datian Primary School. Students who come in can have a free lunch."
"I will also raise the initial expenses, and future expenses will go to the public treasury."
"What do you think?"
Once you serve as an official, you should bring benefit to one party!
Previously, Wang Chen only regarded Datian Village as a springboard to enter West Sea Sect, and did not want to do anything with the name of the village chief.
Now that so many things have happened, his mind has changed.
Wang Chen feels that he needs to do something before leaving, something that can bring good changes to Datian Village. Then he will have a clear conscience when he thinks about this past event in the future!
The three elders were confused again.
Their scalps were numb when they heard it, and the beliefs they had held on to in the past were greatly impacted.
Mr. Chen suddenly straightened up and bowed respectfully to Wang Chen: "My Lord cares about the villagers and is kind and kind. I am willing to do my best to live up to your expectations!"
He suddenly jumped into the water, and the other two could not stand firm on the shore.
They all said they could do it too.
All I have to do is pat my chest to show my loyalty.
Wang Chen smiled, "Good!"
