Chapter 126 Asking for Information

The group walked out of the restaurant with satisfaction. Although the restaurant was small, the food tasted good and the price was affordable. Everyone enjoyed the meal very much, except for Mrs. Wang and Mr. Lin.

Especially when he saw the bill, Lin Xianwen hurriedly walked out of the restaurant with one hand in the other. Lin Zisu quickly paid the bill without giving the two old people a chance to speak.

Lin Zisu: "Grandma, Grandpa, please go back to the temporary residence. We will go... find a job!"

Old Mrs. Wang and Old Man Lin looked at her in disbelief. Not only did they not believe it, but no one else did either.

Lin Zisu doesn't care whether you believe it or not, she is going to get busy. "Let's get busy!"

Lin Xianwen waved his hand.

Shen Xianglan looked at her three sisters-in-law, "Where are you going?"

Lu: "Let's go see if there is any work to do."

Feng didn't want to go back and listen to the nagging, so she walked around outside and said, "I'll go to those restaurants and hotels and ask if they're hiring people to wash the dishes."

Yang nodded and said, "Well, I can wash the dishes, too. I'll go too."

Finally, Wang Laotai and Lin Laotai's two youngest grandchildren, Lin Xianhe and Lin Xianshan, returned to their temporary residence. The two children looked back at their mother, brothers and sisters every few steps, and left reluctantly.

Lin Zisu found her father and his family. There were not only the Lin family, but also the men who had fled along the way. A group of men were holding food and eating as they walked. There were hundreds of them, and it looked like they were going to a fight.

Lin Zisu: "Dad, my aunt and sisters also want to find work, please help them find some."

"Yes, there is work to do." Lin Youcai took out a small notebook from his pocket and opened it. "I have written down the work that everyone can do and where they are. Take a look and see what kind of work you want to do."

"You guys are busy, we'll leave first. See you later!" After saying that, Lin Zisu took her mother and brother away.

Lin Youcai waved his hand and said, "Okay, be careful."

There was no one standing guard at the gate of Qingshui Government, so Lin Zisu walked directly into the lobby. A world map covered the entire wall, facing the gate, and people could not ignore it even if they wanted to.

Lin Zisu, Lin Xianwen, and Shen Xianglan walked into the lobby and looked at the map carefully. Of the maps on the entire wall, only the map of China had a few colored territories in the southern region. The rest were painted white, outlined with black lines, and names written in black.

"They drew this themselves!" Lin Zisu pointed to the colorful maps in the south, "Is this the land currently occupied by the country?"

"Which province is this? The division of provinces, cities and counties here is different from... I can only guess which province it is." Lin Youcai looked at it carefully.

"Are we in the red area now?" Shen Xianglan looked at the obvious Yangtze River on the map. The red area was right next to the Yangtze River.

"It should be." Lin Zisu walked in and saw a sign saying "Inquiry Office". There were seven men and women sitting behind the table, most of them were young people.

"Grandpa, eldest uncle, second uncle, cousin!" Lin Zisu asked when she saw her grandpa, two uncles, and cousin sitting at the table.

Lin Xianwen: "Grandpa, eldest uncle, second uncle, An Rong."

Old man Shen turned around and smiled, "Hey, good boy!"

Shen Anrong: "Aunt, Xiaowen, Xiaosu."

Shen Jingfu: "Sister, Xianwen, Zisu, you are here too."

Shen Jingcai: "Sister, Xianwen, Zisu, where is your brother-in-law?"

Shen Xianglan: "Dad, have you had lunch? Your brother-in-law is busy with other things."

Old Man Shen: "Eat it. Your mother and the others went back first. We came to ask about the situation."

Shen Xianglan: "Then you guys ask your questions, we'll talk when we get back."

Old man Shen nodded and continued to ask the young man opposite.

"Hello! What do you want to consult?" The young girl warmly invited Lin Zisu and the other two to sit down.

Lin Zisu: "What's your last name and name?"

The young girl picked up the work badge hanging in front of her. There was her name and photo on it. She pointed to the name and said, "My name is Tang Xiaotian."

Lin Zisu: "Miss Tang, I want to ask, on the map outside, does the colored territory refer to the land of the country?"

Tang Xiaotian smiled and nodded: "Yes, it refers to the land of the country at present."

Lin Xianwen: "At present, it means that the country is still... expanding its territory... expanding its land."

"Yes, you just arrived in Qingshui City, right?" Tang Xiaotian heard the accent and it was obvious that he was not a local.

Shen Xianglan: "Yes, today is the first day of class."

Lin Zisu: "What policies does the country have for foreign populations like us?"

Lin Xianwen: "We can only live in temporary housing for one month, so how will we arrange our household registration and settlement? Are there any conditions or requirements?"

Tang Xiaotian said patiently: "Yes, there are many policies."

The three of them sat down and showed that they were all ears.

Tang Xiaotian: "For outsiders who want to settle down, they must first graduate from the elementary class. Young children and the elderly and infirm do not have to graduate from the elementary class. If you don't have a household registration, you can first register with the government and get a temporary household registration, then you can rent or buy a house.

After graduating from the junior class, finding a stable job, living in the country for a full year, and having no bad behavior within the year, you can apply for a Japanese household registration.

The same applies to those who want to settle down in the countryside and buy houses and land. In the countryside, students also have half-day classes and half-day work. The difference from the city is that students work in the morning and attend classes in the afternoon.

Lin Zisu: "So after graduation, will our beginner, intermediate, and advanced classes stay in Qingshui City, or where will they be assigned to?"

Tang Xiaotian: "Qingshui City has a large population now, and most people will be relocated to other places. Unless you have a stable job in Qingshui City, you can stay here.

The land of the country is constantly expanding, and the population will mostly be placed in places where there is a shortage of people."

Shen Xianglan: "In other words, we should go wherever there is a shortage of people? It depends on luck?"

Tang Xiaotian: “Yes and no, it depends on what you are good at and what kind of talents are needed in a certain place. We will arrange for those talents to go there. It mainly depends on the arrangement.

For example, if a place is short of people to farm, farmers will be assigned to farm. If a place is short of doctors or people to build houses... we will assign people to the places that are short of people.”

Lin Zisu: "Which place to settle down depends on luck. You can only go where there is a vacancy. For example, if a certain place lacks people who can farm, we will arrange for people who can farm to go there. Is that what you mean?"

Tang Xiaotian smiled and said, "Yes. But you can choose for yourself and refuse to go. You can also apply for the place you want to go. This is not mandatory."

Lin Zisu thought to herself, it all depends on luck and skill, and each person’s ability.
