Chapter 601: The Root of the Problem

To put it bluntly, these children, in fact, are the first to come into contact with people from outside the mountain. They often chase Li Zixi and Zhang Yi to ask some questions about the outside world. For example, they heard that there are airplanes outside that can pull people from one place to another place far away from the sky. They heard that there is a kind of transportation called trains that can pull a lot of things that donkey carts can't pull, and can go to many places that donkey carts can't reach. Reading

This is all curiosity about the outside world, and Zhang Yi and Li Zixi will take out some photos of these transportation tools and some photos of the scenery outside to introduce the outside world to these children.

In the final analysis, it is to change the children's ideas, so that the children can study well, and go out of this mountain village in the future to venture into the outside world. Although these are all far-reaching things, in the eyes of Li Zixi and Zhang Yi, these children's future achievements will definitely not be low, because their intelligence is unique to the mountains, and their independent character is very strong, and they will not suffer any loss outside.

In general, the teaching method of Li Zixi and Zhang Yi is to take a different approach, start from scratch, and teach these children how to face the world in a special way.

Li Yi thought about it carefully and found that there are indeed many things that can be learned from this incident. If a similar village is found in the future, and there are also problems of cognitive gaps and backward thinking, then Li Zixi and Zhang Yi's method may be used for emergency!

Yu Huai, Li Yi and Xu Qingyao did not go forward to disturb them tacitly, but after observing for a while, they left with peace of mind.

Following the dirt road in the village, we returned to the home of the village chief Liangzhuang. Now the village chief went to the field and was not at home. The village chief's wife simply gave everyone some water and took out some snacks to prepare for the New Year. Li Yi refused several times but it didn't work, so he had to eat some.

These cakes were made by the village chief's wife herself. I don't know what materials they used, but they are surprisingly delicious.

Li Yi said to Xu Qingyao in a deep voice:

"You have also seen the current situation in Tongxiang Village. Now do you think that the professors' views on the development of rural economy are correct?"

The reason for this is that Li Yi wants to set a goal, or a dream, for Xu Qingyao.

A businessman, when he started doing business, was motivated by the need to solve the problem of food and clothing. All businessmen have the same starting point, and there is no dispute about this.

But what happened later?

What about after basically solving the problem of food and clothing?

Should there be a new goal?

Many businessmen will choose to continue to grow and become stronger, so that their business can occupy a place in their hometown or their city. This is for fame and fortune, and it is also a simple goal.

There are also some people who are satisfied as long as they can solve the simple problem of food and clothing, so a group of people were eliminated at this second level.

So what if the second goal is achieved?

If the business of this businessman is already a household name in the local area, and has a small reputation, and then the family property has gradually become richer, what should be done afterwards?

Or someone will say that it has reached this level, and it is also a perfection, right?

That's right, the third checkpoint left a group of people behind again. They just settled down in a city and got married and had children. They no longer had the energy to move up, and they were not young anymore.

But Li Yi and Xu Qingyao were different. Li Yi certainly couldn't let Xu Qingyao start from the grassroots level right after she graduated from school. There was not so much time, and Li Yi didn't need to avoid suspicion or anything, because the employees of his company were all people he trusted, and there was no doubt about that.

However, Li Yi had no way to control how Xu Qingyao chose herself. In other words, the extent of Xu Qingyao's future achievements depended on the height of Xu Qingyao's goals.

This time, Li Yi wanted Xu Qingyao to set a goal so that Xu Qingyao could see clearly how to go in the future.

Although Xu Qingyao has a strong personality, she is kind-hearted. Like her sister, there is a voice in her bones that asks them to help the weak, even if their lives are not satisfactory. In the previous life, even if the family situation is not good, Xu Qingyao and Xu Qingnan will give some money to beggars, or just buy them a steamed bun.

What Li Yi wants to do is to give Xu Qingyao the right direction.

After hearing what Li Yi said, Xu Qingyao pondered for a while with a serious face, and then replied:

"I don't know the situation in other villages, but if you only look at this village, their statement is a bit too arbitrary. This village that doesn't even use currency can't say that increasing the economic income of the villagers can help them get rid of poverty..."

Obviously, when Xu Qingyao said these words, she was a little bit lacking in confidence, but there was no way. After all, Xu Qingyao herself didn't have any strong evidence, and she was just a student. The professors standing on the podium to teach them were all famous professors.

But what Xu Qingyao didn't expect was that Li Yi smiled and said:

"Actually, you are right. Those professors have all made a mistake, that is, they do not know how poor the poor are. The poor in their eyes are at most those living in the suburbs, or else they are poor. Farmers in rural areas don’t even know that there are villages in the mountains without electricity!”

In today's society, as long as you are in a rural area close to a city, no matter how poor you are, you can have electric lights. The villages that the professors visited are all in this situation, but who would have thought that there are many people in the villages who will never live in this life. Never walked out of the mountains?

Therefore, the solutions they proposed to solve the problem of rural economic backwardness simply do not work.

This is why the group of people who came to the village to do some charity work a few times were kicked out by the villagers of Tongxiang Village.

What those people mean is, I will give you money and build a house for you, and you will move out of the mountains!

These people have ignored one of the most important issues, which is the Tongcang people’s sense of belonging to Shiwandashan and their love for their hometown.

Li Yi sighed and continued:

"What we can do is limited, and there are many things we cannot do. We can only rely on time to help the villagers get in touch with the outside world."

Xu Qingyao suddenly realized that the root of the problem seemed to be how to subtly change Tongxiang Village, rather than directly throwing money!
