Su Yonglin thought about it after learning about it.
It should be said that since Su Yonglin had a stable base area, she had consciously liberated the productive forces of women.
This idea was first implemented in Tai ‘an, an important base in his early days, because Tai ‘an has iron mines, large mining fields and iron smelting workshops, and many workers work in them.
At that time, Su Yonglin decided to hire unmarried young girls to enter the workshop to help the workers with logistics and pay them.
He plans to come to Tai ‘an to do an early experiment to see if women have a good impact on social economy after joining social workers.
It turns out that there is
After young women join the work, the income of a normal family will increase, and the family property will be better. Many parents are more inclined to let their daughters get married later, hoping that they can make money when they have more.
Whether it is subsidizing families or raising enough dowry by themselves, it is of positive significance, and it also curbs the local custom of marrying daughters at the age of 12 or 13.
Women who work as well as men can also have a rich lunch in the workshop.
In addition to wages, there are also some welfare benefits for meat, oil and rice on holidays. When you are sick, you can see a doctor and take medicine in a small clinic in the factory department, and it costs nothing.
If a family has many children who work in factories except the necessary land and labor, it will greatly reduce the burden on the family.
The iron smelting workshop of Tai ‘an mining workshop soon became a local fragrant cake, and it is the dream of many farmers’ families to get a job there.
With the transformation of the Victory Army to the Recovery Army and the Army, the Su Yonglin stall is also growing, and the demand for steel is increasing. The mining workshop and iron smelting workshop in Tai’ an Prefecture are also gradually expanding their scale, expanding their production and accepting more local people to work.
At the same time, there is also a local textile workshop established during the war, which specializes in military uniforms in summer and winter. After continuous expansion and development, it is now very large
According to the report of the Fuxing Association of Tai ‘an, Su Yonglin learned that great changes have taken place in local folk customs over the years.
First of all, my daughter got married very early, so things rarely happen.
Chapter 941 Flag fresh expression position
Other States don’t say that Tai ‘an has really changed its folk customs in recent years.
Su Yonglin was the first to occupy and operate the base area, where farmers’ associations were first built to liberate farmers, and Chinese workshops were first set up to invest in industrial upgrading.
Over the years, no matter who has a daughter or not, farmers in Tai ‘an are still eager to marry their daughters, hoping to send them to the factory to find a job when they grow up.
Generally, when girls are eleven or twelve years old, they will be sent to the workshop to do some light manual skills, such as sewing and weaving clothes, etc. Their father thinks this is very good, not only for work, but also for training the skills of needlework that they need to get married in the future.
And there’s money to make.
Isn’t it nice to enjoy medical care while earning wages and eating a meal in the workshop and taking the annual benefits of the workshop to reduce the burden on the family and increase the family income to work?
To put it bluntly, who wouldn’t be happy if the original loss-making thing turned into a profit-making thing?
Therefore, the marriage age of women in Taian is slowly pushed back, and it is rarely heard that they are married at the age of eleven or twelve.
It’s not important. What’s important is that I don’t know when the idea of "earning my own dowry and finding my own husband" came from the female group of Taian workshop.
From the first year of Hongwu to the second year of Hongwu, the custom of women earning their own dowry prevailed in the local area.
The women in the workshop pay attention to discussing their wages with their families as dowry and flowers when they get married. At that time, they will take their savings as dowry without paying from their families.
Most of my family members don’t agree with this view. Anyway, this money is unavoidable, and I am happy to lighten the burden if I don’t leave home.
But also because of this custom, Tai ‘an factory women gradually have their own independent consciousness in marriage and marriage.
They often don’t accept the straightforward demands of their elders for their marriage at will, and they don’t accept the custom of marrying a chicken, marrying a dog and following a dog as in the past, but ask them to ask their own opinions more when choosing a husband.
I don’t marry until I see it myself, and I don’t marry until I see it. When I choose my husband, I often prefer the workers and men in the same factory because they are also very clear about the income level and treatment level of men in the factory.
The marriage of male workers and female workers is one plus one is greater than two, and the choice of both parties depends on the workshop and family. The two-point and one-line life must be rich and colorful.
With their dowry money in their hands and a job that can guarantee a good life, they have an unprecedented confidence in this matter
For this kind of confidence, parents obviously have no time to adapt and change their thinking. Of course, some parents are willing to obey their daughters’ ideas, while others are unwilling to give up their old ways.
There have been some disputes in the local area.
What is needed is that Su Yonglin has been promoting people’s literacy rate and insisting on literacy action.
Various occasions conducive to literacy, such as the army and workshops, make literacy more efficient, and workers in Taian workshops have become one of the groups with the highest literacy rate.
Su Yonglin asked men and women to be consistent in teaching people to read.
The literacy rate of workers is significantly higher than that of farmers, and the literacy rate of workers in the workshop soon surpassed that of one of the most culturally representative groups in farmers’ land.
After listening to the instructor in the workshop, I preached some ideas about Su Yonglin’s political theory, gained some insight, and had the economic foundation and reliance to live alone without family, so the women workers gradually became independent.
Xiao Cui, a female factory worker, hasn’t given the money to her father who likes drinking since her second year of work for four years, but has held it in her own hands.
The incompetent father also made trouble in the workshop many times and asked Xiao Cui to give him money to buy wine to drink. Xiao Cui held up his courage but refused to give it.
Her father tried to hit her, but Xiao Cui’s friends stopped her. Everyone was in solidarity and scolded her father.
After that, Xiao Cui rarely went home, occasionally sneaking home to see her mother and brother plug some money, and then quickly returned to the workshop to live in the dormitory.
Perhaps he felt that his loss of prestige made the alcoholic father very unhappy.
Because of the lack of money to buy wine, this guy became angry from his heart and decided to write off Xiao Cuixu’s debts for drinking for himself and get an extra sum of money.
In the face of this kind of thing, Xiao Cui certainly disagrees with her feeling that she has been greatly insulted. She strongly resists not to marry, no matter how many times the other party comes to make noise.
She will never allow herself to be sold as an object by her alcoholic father.
The workmates are very supportive of Xiao Cui’s resistance, and they are also United as enemies. Every time they come to make trouble, they unite to drive them away and protect Xiao Cui, perhaps at the same time protecting their own autonomy.
After reading this report, Su Yonglin recognized that it is not easy for people to awaken, and it is necessary for them to maintain this awakening and take root and grow up.
Attacking and banning the father, an important part of the feudal ideological framework, is an important step to complete social change and an important war to eradicate old ideas. He will never be soft-hearted
So he suggested setting up a drama troupe and accepting women into the Renaissance Association. At the same time, he told the members of the Renaissance Association about it and expressed his support for her with a thin flag.
"Xiao Cui’s paternal behavior is a typical old thinking, full of oppression and exploitation of women, which is the direct embodiment of strong fatherhood in Confucianism! Yes, we must stand against a line!
Treating children as productive investment, treating them as labor force, treating children with a little warmth because it involves old-age care and inheritance, is like throwing water out, which is quite cold. "
Su Yonglin slammed the table and said angrily, "It was this time that this happened that we only noticed it in our workshop. Otherwise, how long will it take for this thing to be known?" Don’t you think Xiao Cui is brave in such a thing? "
To be honest, it is more difficult to change customs than to reform politics.
For a long time, Su Yonglin has focused on political and military reforms, and has not yet made efforts on issues that have a greater impact on the economy and people’s livelihood, let alone talked about women’s topics.
Su Yonglin didn’t take it seriously if he didn’t care about others. It has always been a male thing to be an official, a soldier or join a revival meeting
It was not until Su Yonglin said that women could also join the Renaissance Association that they found that the big society had changed a lot.
Unconsciously, with the establishment of the imperial court, more and more women are recruited to work in handicraft workshop. As time goes by, there have been so many women rebelling against their fathers.
And they don’t know that.
Su Yonglin was silent for a while and sighed when he looked at them without any movement.
"So I said that we can’t kill ourselves, and we can’t feel that we understand everything just because we came from the people. We don’t understand a lot of things. I set up a public consultation room, which is to let the people take the initiative to come and talk to us.
But what if some people come to talk to us on their own initiative? Then we will take the initiative to go over and talk to them and ask them about the real situation, so that we can have a deeper understanding of what happened to the people.
Just like this matter, I’m just like you. If it weren’t for this report, I wouldn’t know or realize that there is such a problem in the law and it will cause such bad events. "
