As time goes by, it’s now autumn.
The weather is getting colder.
The rice in the rice fields is ripe and golden, and farmers are busy harvesting grains in the fields.
After the grain harvest is completed and the land becomes free, it is the best time for Li Xiao to harvest the land.
The most important thing now is to let the people of the world understand that they can also enjoy another kind of beautiful life.
Zhu Yunwen has also rushed to Nanjing from Peking, bringing with him his newly shot documentary "The Daily Happy Life of Peking People".
At night, in the military camp, Zhu Yunwen turned on the projection and the movie was playing.
Sitting below were Li Jinglong, Jian Yi, Yu Shi, Zhao Jingkun and other important officials of the Nanjing court.
"Oh my God, is this a movie from Peking?"
"It's amazing. Seeing it is better than hearing it a hundred times!"
"How did this picture appear?"
The officials were filled with admiration and were completely attracted by the movie scenes in front of them, like a miracle.
Now that the land of these officials has been taken away and their welfare benefits have been improved, they have no complaints against Li Xiao. On the contrary, they have begun to obey Li Xiao's orders.
At this moment, their eyes were attracted by the pictures in the movie.
In the picture, the people of Peking are very happy and happy.
The farmland is divided into fifty acres, and farmers work on it, planting crops, working at sunrise and resting at sunset.
Then there are shots of the city, with bustling traffic and blooming flowers.
In the city, people are walking around in a very comfortable state. There are a wide variety of products in supermarkets, and the sound of hawking can often be heard in the vegetable market.
"Fresh apples, big and sweet, only cost ten cents a pound."
"Prawn shrimp, shrimp shrimp, fresh shrimp shrimp."
"Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs, delicious yellow fat, cost one penny a pound."
Then the interview started.
A certain village, fields.
In the picture, a middle-aged man talks to the camera.
"My name is Zhang Tieniu. I used to be a tenant. Since Li Qingtian came, life has become much better for us people. I used to be so poor that I couldn't even get a wife. Now look at it, this is my big house. This is My mother-in-law"
"Now, we ordinary people don't have land in our hands, but we only need to pay rent to get fifty acres of land. In fact, this is still our own land."
"The food grown above belongs to us, so we don't have to pay taxes. I have been farming all my life, but I haven't made any money. Most of the harvest has been given to the landlords. But after the Imperial Master promulgated this regulation, I After growing wheat for a few years, I built a new house and got a wife. After the reform, people can work in factories, but I only know how to farm, so I'm not bad at farming."
In the movie screen, the host asked: "Tieniu, are you happy?"
Zhang Tieniu said: "My surname is not Fu, my surname is Zhang."
host:"."
The next scene is a quick playback of Zhang Tieniu's day.
After a busy day, he returned to the house and had dinner.
The dinner was very sumptuous, including roasted chicken with potatoes, fried pork with chili peppers, and fragrant rice. Zhang Tieniu ate three bowls.
When it got dark, my wife went to the hot bed, her face full of happiness.
Zhang Tieniu: "Hey, hey, we can't shoot this."
The scene changes.
A textile factory in Peiping.
There is a huge space in the factory, and thousands of female workers are busy inside. Placed in front of them is a new type of textile machine, horizontally and vertically.
Each textile worker operates a machine and sees cloth being produced continuously, very quickly.
The host randomly found a female worker with better appearance and asked: "What is your name?"
The female worker, who was about eighteen or nineteen years old, replied shyly: "The little girl's name is Song Hongtao."
Host: "Hello Song Hongtao, are you happy working here?"
Song Hongtao: "Happy, very happy."
Host: "Then can you tell me why you are happy?"
Song Hongtao: "I don't know what to say."
Moderator: "It seems that Hongtao is more reserved, so next, let me ask the questions and you answer them, how about it?"
Song Hongtao nodded.
Host: "Is it hard to work here?"
Song Hongtao: "It's not hard work. The sisters start work at eight o'clock every morning and can rest at twelve noon. Lunch is provided by the factory at no cost. It is very rich, with two meat dishes, one vegetarian dish and one soup. There is meat for every meal. In the past few years, the sisters have gained weight. Then after taking a two-hour break at noon, we start working at two o'clock in the afternoon, and then we can get off work at five o'clock."
Host: "How much money can you make in a month working here?"
Song Hongtao: "It's a lot of money to make. Our factory is very profitable. We can earn five taels of silver a month. We also have various benefits during the holidays. We give out moon cakes on Mid-Autumn Festival, white sugar and brown sugar on Labor Day, and we also give out on weekdays Movie tickets, cake tickets and other benefits.

In the evening, I will go to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables and cook them at home. I will cook in the evening. Now the vegetable market Meat is also very cheap, and eggs and chicken are not expensive.”
Host: "Your husband's problem has been solved. Do you have children? If you have children, both of you are not at home. Who will take care of the children?"
Song Hongtao: "It's okay. There is a kindergarten in Beiping now. We send our children to school in the morning and pick them up after get off work. The children are taken care of and they can learn knowledge in the kindergarten. After that, there are elementary schools, middle schools, etc. College.

Host: "Isn't this very expensive?"
Song Hongtao: "It's not expensive. There is a subsidy from the court. You only need to pay one tael of silver every month. The two of us can have an income of ten taels of silver every month. After excluding the expenses of the children, we can have some leftover every month." With seven or eight taels of silver, now we have all bought houses in the city."
Host: "Song Hongtao, it seems that you are very satisfied with your current life, right?"
Song Hongtao: "Yes, very satisfied. I used to be a slave. I was sold to a wealthy family as a maid when I was ten years old. I had no freedom and no life of my own. But since Mr. Li Qingtian came to Peiping, the world has changed. , we slaves have become free people. At first, I was worried that we would not have a stable life, but soon, people from the community came to our door and arranged jobs for us. Today’s life is really like a dream. From slaves to now, we live a happy life , have their own family and house. I heard that we work here and will receive pensions when we get old in the future. Thank you so much Mr. Li Qingtian."
Host: "It seems that what you said is not a lie. You are indeed very happy. Do you know that the Master Qingtian you mentioned has now become the Imperial Master of the Ming Dynasty?"
Song Hongtao: "What is the Imperial Master of the Ming Dynasty? I don't know. I only know that Mr. Li Qingtian is our Qingtian. We people are very grateful to him. Without him, there would be no good life and happy life now."
Host: "Okay, then I wish you happiness forever. After you get off work, is it possible to continue filming and record your life? Our film will be open to the whole country, so that people all over the country can see your happy life." , so that people all over the country can be like you, the National Master is working hard."
Song Hongtao: "Of course. It would be great if all the people in the world could be like Peking. Mr. Li Qingtian is such a good person."
The picture enters the rapid playback stage.
In the picture, female workers such as Song Hongtao can rest in the lounge after eating a rich lunch.
After starting work, I worked for another three hours and then got off work.
After get off work, Song Hongtao met her husband Wang Dacheng. The two held hands and were very intimate, and went to a kindergarten to pick up their children.
After picking up the children, they took them to the vegetable market.
The vegetable market is very spectacular, with various vendors selling a wide variety of products, including various vegetables, tomatoes, tomatoes, potatoes, sweet potatoes, green peppers, leeks, and corn.
There are also various kinds of meat, chicken, duck, fish, meat and eggs.
The happy family of three bought potatoes, a fat chicken, ribs, and vegetables.
Afterwards, they returned home. They were in a community with many vertical and horizontal houses. Their home was a small courtyard, not large, only about a hundred square meters, but it was very warm when entering the home.
His wife Song Hongtao was cooking in the small kitchen in the yard. After cooking, the family of three sat in the yard to eat.
"Host, please come and have some too."
"Okay, thank you very much."
The scene of a warm family is cut off.
The scene changes.
This time I came to another place, located in the bustling area of Beiping City.
In the picture, it can be said that there is a sea of people, and people are constantly walking on the streets, either shopping or chatting.
The shops on both sides of the street are bustling with business and blooming with flowers.
The scene stopped at a stinky tofu shop.
There is a couplet posted on the door of the shop.
First couplet: It is both fragrant and smelly. The fragrance floats thousands of miles away.
Second line: The taste is delicious and reaches thousands of families.
Horizontal couplet: smelly and fragrant.
The business of this stinky tofu shop is very good, and the queue in front of the door is very long.
The host came to the shop and asked: "Shopkeeper, are you free? Let's do an interview."
The stinky tofu shopkeeper Zhao He put down what he was doing: "Okay, okay, you are Lord Li Qingtian's people, right?"
Host: "Hahaha, everyone belongs to Mr. Li Qingtian."
Zhao He asked the waiter to go about his business, and he followed the host to the open space next to him, and said, "Yes, yes, we people in Peking are all the people of Lord Li Qingtian, just say it."
Host: "What is your name?"
Zhao He said: "The villain's name is Zhao He."
Host: "Hello Zhao He, are you happy?"
Stinky tofu shopkeeper Zhao He said: "Happy, very happy!"
Host: "May I ask why you are happy?"
Zhao He: “If you have money, you will be happy.”
Host: "It seems that Brother Zhao is quite wealthy. How much money does he make?"
Zhao He: "Thanks to the Imperial Master, you see, this couplet was written by the Imperial Master himself. I can earn three hundred taels of silver a year. It's a bit tiring, but I enjoy the hardship. I was a small shop business back then. It was very bad. After the imperial master accidentally took a bite, he wrote a couplet for me, and the business got better. But I am honest in my business and never increase the price. We are all repeat customers."
Host: "So much. If you earn three hundred taels of silver a year, you can be considered a rich man."
Zhao He: "You can't be called a rich man. A small amount of wealth means peace. A small amount of wealth means peace. Haha. In recent years, I have bought a house and married my mother-in-law. My wife has taken care of her children at home. She has given birth to six children. The house is very lively. Leah."
Host: "These are all changes brought about by the reform of the national division, right?"
Zhao He: "Yes, I have gone through this stage, and the changes are very obvious. Before the Imperial Master came, I was just a big cake seller, and I could not earn a few copper coins a year. I was hungry every time I was full. Suddenly. After the imperial master came, everyone suddenly became rich overnight, so I took out a loan and opened this small shop. Whether the business is good or not is not because of my ability, Zhao Heduo, but because of everyone. We all have become rich and are willing to spend money to enjoy this stinky tofu delicacy. It is a kind of enjoyment. In Peiping, as long as you are willing to endure hardship, there is gold everywhere. Many villagers in our village have become rich doing small businesses. Day by day It’s better than one day.”
Host: "Okay, it seems you are very satisfied with your current life, right?"
Zhao He: "I am very satisfied. I would like to thank the Imperial Preceptor and the imperial court for bringing us a good life. We could not even dream of such good days before, but now it is really a peaceful and prosperous age. The Imperial Preceptor is so amazing. In the past few years, Time has brought such great changes. Here, I wish the Imperial Master a blessing as good as the East Sea and a life as long as the Southern Mountains. You are a great benefactor to our people."
Host: "Okay, I will definitely help you convey your best wishes to the National Master."
Zhao He: "Thank you so much. Come on, come on, take this little money and buy some delicious food. You must broadcast my stinky tofu shop, so my business will be better."
Host: "No way, we can never take people's money. You take it back, otherwise we won't broadcast it."
Zhao He: "Then I don't have anything good here, so go get some stinky tofu to eat, Zhang San, Zhao Wu, go fry a hundred pieces of stinky tofu for these adults. Oh no, three hundred pieces of stinky tofu."
