"Okay, then I'll disturb the old village chief." Ye Lingtian smiled, and then walked directly to the village while walking and talking, leaving the entire room of leaders and reporters there.

Ye Lingtian was having lunch at the old village chief's house. The old village chief called all four or five village cadres in the village to accompany Ye Lingtian to have a meal and drink. Ye Lingtian did not dislike the old village chief's house at all. He was eating and drinking with several village cadres. At noon that day, the wine was very fierce, but because it was rice wine brewed by the old village chief's house, the degree was not high. However, even so, the five village cadres also yelled two on the spot.

Of course, this little wine is nothing to Ye Lingtian. After Ye Lingtian drank, he began walking in the village one by one with the old village chief in the afternoon to learn about the family situation of each family in detail. The two people following Fang Zhiqiang would register the situation of each family in detail, how many people in the family, the elderly, children, etc., what work they do, how much income they earn each year, what income they mainly rely on, how much expenditure, what aspects of expenditure, etc.

Ye Lingtian did not leave the village at night, so he took two assistants to live in the old village chief's house at night. Ye Lingtian stayed at the old village chief's house for a week. He spent a week traveling to every household in the village, ate and drank at many households, and basically made friends with every household in the village.

Moreover, Ye Lingtian was completely isolated from the world this week because there was no signal in the village's mobile phone.

After Ye Lingtian stayed in the village for a week, he drove back to the city by two assistants and went to the hotel in the city to stay.

It was not until he returned to the city and returned to the Internet society that he knew how big the matter had happened this week. I don’t know who took it on his mobile phone that day. He directly scolded the group of officials and reporters in the classroom that day and was posted on the Internet, which caused the entire online society to be boiling. Ye Lingtian, a national husband who had been silent for a long time and had not appeared on TV and the Internet, suddenly became popular again, and it was even more popular than before. The video was reprinted by major portals and circulated on mobile phones of various self-media. The total click rate reached more than 300 million times in a week. All the comments praised Ye Lingtian and criticized the group of local officials and reporters.

This was the result that Ye Lingtian did not expect. When he learned the news, he frowned deeply. He did not expect this result to occur, and this was not what he thought. He had no intention of offending the government officials in this place, nor did he want to offend the entire government system. However, as soon as this video was released, it obviously labeled him. In the future, government officials would think that he was a monster when dealing with him. However, Ye Lingtian didn't care too much. If he offended, he would offend him. Ye Lingtian was not afraid of anyone.

The first thing Ye Lingtian did when he returned to the hotel was to call Li Yuxin. He had not contacted Li Yuxin for a week.

"Hey, Yuxin, are you at work?" Fang Zhiqiang asked while sitting in the hotel room.

"You finally came out? I didn't call you for a few days."

"Well, yes, it took a week to roughly understand the situation of the villagers in the village. I just came out of the mountains today." Ye Lingtian answered truthfully.

"How is the situation?" Li Yuxin was also very concerned.

"It's poorer than we imagined. The average annual income of the village is less than 5,000 yuan. In other words, a family of five has a total income of less than 25,000 yuan a year. If there are elderly people and children at home, the situation will be even worse. This income can only maintain a normal livelihood, not get sick, and there is no way to get education at all. If you get sick, it's a catastrophe and you don't have money to see a doctor. As for the education you mentioned, it's not that they don't pay attention to it, but that they really can't pay attention to it. They can't even eat enough and live near the baseline for striving to survive. How can they have the energy to consider the matter of education? They are really poor, and after understanding it, it's a bit shocking." Ye Lingtian sighed.

"Not it, so poor? Haven't we built a road?"

"Yes, the old village chief told me that before the road was built, their family's annual income was less than 10,000 yuan. At that time, the village was basically in a self-sufficiency situation. After the road was repaired, they had some agricultural products that could be carried to the town and the county town to sell, and their income was more than doubled. They were very grateful to us and for the benefits we brought to them, but in my opinion, life is still too poor and very poor. The old village chief also told me that the village has a new atmosphere this year, and the young people in the village started to work outside together, all of them went to Guangdong. He said that if you go there to work there, you can earn 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a year, you can save money and send 10,000 yuan a year to your home, and your life will improve further. However, these young people who went out to work were those who were supported by us and dropped out of school halfway through the journey.

Most of the children are sixteen or seventeen years old. When they go out to work at this age, it means that they can basically just work in their lives. There is no way to change the poverty situation in the village, and they can only relieve the pressure at home a little. There is another most serious problem in the village, that is, one-third of the men in the village and men of marriageable age cannot find a wife because they are too poor. Those who find a wife are all from the village. The situation is getting worse and worse now, and women outside are not willing to marry into their village because they are too poor. The girls in the village are also eager to marry outside. This is the problem that the villagers are most worried about. However, in the final analysis, there is only one problem, that is, they are too poor." Ye Lingtian slowly introduced the situation to Li Yuxin.

"Yes, then what are you going to do? Do you have any ideas?"

"Not yet. At present, I just understand the situation in the village. As for how to help the poor, I haven't thought about it yet. The purpose of poverty alleviation is naturally to help them get rid of poverty and become rich for a long time, rather than to give money directly. There is an old saying that it is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish. The best way is to carry out projects in the village. We provide funds to carry out projects, and through the profits of the project, the local people gradually get rid of poverty and become rich." Ye Lingtian thought about the speaker.
