A trip starting from the courtyard

Chapter 607 Talent Training Base
After sending a servant to enter personal data for more than a dozen people, Wang Lidong turned his head in disbelief, "Show Guanshi Cheng a few blueprints."

"Good sir." Buwei took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve and handed them to the square-faced middle-aged man beside him, "Guan Cheng, if you have any questions, you can ask me."

"Okay," the square-faced middle-aged man hurriedly reached out to take the blueprint.

He was originally a small steward in charge of the construction of the Duke's Mansion, but he was suddenly told this morning that he would follow the Young Master in the future, which made him overjoyed, the Duke's Mansion had only one heir
Read several drawings carefully. Martial arts field, dormitory, dining room.
What is this little man going to do?
It looks like a military camp.
Immediately get rid of these thoughts, don't worry about what you shouldn't think about, this is what his mother told him, and he kept it in mind since he was a child, which saved him from several disasters.

After reading all the design drawings, Cheng Guanshi frowned.

Lots of questions.

It is no problem to repair the house, but adding a firewall to the room is a big project.

Ordinary blue bricks will definitely not work, you need to use special fireproof bricks, but these things are in short supply, and there are only two workshops in the entire Tokyo city to produce them. If you order now, you will get it at least half a year later.
And in such cold weather, it is impossible to build a new house.

After Wang Lidong listened to Cheng Guanshi's answer, he crossed out the plan to increase the firewall.

"Cheng Guanshi, the dormitory dining room will be built after spring, what's the problem?"

"Little Grandpa, repairing the house, building tables and chairs, and leveling the land, ten people is really a bit small, and it may take half a year to complete all the work.

Half a year?
How many children can be conceived.

The main purpose of his visit to Yaojiazhuang today is not to check the accounts, but to verify the specific situation of Zhuangzi.

After all, hearing is believing, seeing is believing. After looking around, I decided to put my talent training base in Yaojiazhuang.

Sanjin's house is big enough to be used as a school after repairs and renovations.There are also several open spaces around the house, enough to build some dormitories and several training grounds.

He is particularly satisfied with the transportation. It only takes half an hour from Yaojiazhuang to Tokyo City by land.It is faster to travel by water, and it only takes a quarter of an hour to reach the Duke of Qi's mansion, which is so convenient.

Wang Lidong said: "It must be completed within one month. How many people are needed and what materials are required, if you report it or not, he will help you solve it."

Cheng Guanshi nodded, as long as there are enough people, he can guarantee that he can shoot breasts in half a month.

Wang Lidong said to Wuwei: "When recruiting people, give priority to the people in our village. If there are not enough Yaojiazhuang, go to the other 4 villages."

"Steward Wu, how long will it take for the three yards to be remodeled?"

"The yard is the fastest, and it can be remodeled by the end of the month."

At noon, the news that the little grandpa was going to set up an academy in Yaojiazhuang spread throughout the five Zhuangzi under his name at several times the speed of light.

Hundreds of tenant farmers became restless.

Scholars, the social status in the Song Dynasty was too high.

The emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats rule the world together. This slogan is not just lip service.

If the Song Dynasty is compared to a company, the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrat group each hold 50% of the company's shares.If the scholar-bureaucrats do not nod on any major event, the old emperor can only stare blankly.

So in the Song Dynasty, as long as you put on the official hat, the benefits and benefits will make the official apes look jealous after a thousand years.

The well-known upright official 'Bao Zheng', whose job is the Deputy Privy Envoy, is similar to 'Junwei Deputy Bamboo Mat', with an annual salary of [-] guan. In addition, there are various welfare fees, clothing materials, carriage and horse expenses and other subsidies. The total is about the same. Five thousand guan.

That’s not to mention, in the end there is an official land, which can receive almost 500 yuan of land rent a year. In general, it is 900 yuan a year, and the purchasing power of each guan is about [-] four sea coins. The annual income is almost [-] million.

The above are all on the bright side, and can be put in the sun. As for the private ones, everyone understands.

Correspondingly, the risk of being an official is pitifully small. As long as you don't rebel, no matter how greedy you are, you will be demoted and lose your official position.

When the heads of the four farms outside Yaojiazhuang found out about the private school and returned to their own village, they were immediately surrounded by enthusiastic tenant farmers and almost breathless.

"No tuition fees? Zhuangtou, is it true or not?"

"And a free meal?"

All the tenant farmers looked suspicious. The conditions were so good that they all wondered if there was something tricky about it.

Since I was a child, I have never heard of any private school that is exempt from training.

At this time, the tuition fees of each private school are different, and the charging standard mainly depends on the teacher's position.

There are quite a few people who have the reputation of being a scholar, and they can be regarded as high-end goods. Most of the tuition fees are one or two hundred renminbi. Juren is relatively scarce, and the tuition fees rise in a straight line.

Of course, the imperial court has opened many free government schools these days, including food and housing, and will give each student a living allowance of several hundred cash every month
Are you envious?But there is a premise, you must have a good father, this kind of school is only open to the powerful or officials.

As the saying goes, "If you don't have anything to show gallantry, you can either rape or steal." Yaojiazhuang is at the foot of Tokyo City, and everyone knows exactly what the style of the noble children is like.

"Little Grandpa's academy, this time recruits two classes of civil and martial arts. The literary class only teaches simple word recognition and arithmetic, not the Four Books and Five Classics. In addition to literacy and arithmetic, the martial arts class also needs to learn fists, feet and weapons, so a meal is provided."

Only teach the most basic, no wonder.

Although the tenant farmers were a little disappointed, everyone felt at ease.

Almost all tenants with children signed up, and more than [-]% of them signed up for the literary class.

It is winter now, and there is not much work in the fields.Anyway, I don’t need money, I need to learn more things, and when my child grows up, he can also go to the city to find a job as a shop assistant or accountant.

In the main room of a small farmyard on the west side of Yaojiazhuang.

Li Jinhu, who had just returned home, was squatting in front of the ashes stove, roasting his hands while saying to his wife: "...I have enrolled Daniel for the literature class, and the first college will start next month."

Liu Jinhua, who was weaving the straw sandals, stopped what she was doing, still not convinced: "You really don't want Shuxiu?"

"I really don't want Shu Xiu! Just teach a few words, and you don't have much money.

The owner of the villa is the young master of Duke Qi's mansion, his family is rich in gold and silver, how could he care about such a small amount of money? "

Li Daniu, who was sitting on the kang teasing his younger sister, suddenly said, "Father, mother, I miss the martial arts class."

Li Jinhu looked at his 8-year-old son, frowned and said, "Martial arts class? What can you do with boxing and kicking? My eldest brother wants to join the army when he grows up?"

Li Daniu said in a low voice: "Father, the martial arts class can also learn words and arithmetic, and if there is an extra meal, then the family can save a meal of rations every day."

Li Jinhu thought about it for a while, and it was true. Although his family did not lack this little food, it accumulated over time, and after a year, he could still have two or three stones.

Moreover, his elder son usually likes to dance with guns and sticks. If he really wants to go to some literary class, he might not go in a few days. Looking at his wife, Liu Jinhua nodded and said: "Twisted melons are not sweet, since eldest brother likes fists , then go to the martial arts class."

Li Jinhu said to his eldest son: "Then father will go to Zhuangtou's house tomorrow morning and replace you with a martial arts class."

When the tenants were crowding at Zhuangtou's house and signing up for their children, Wang Lidong rode a carriage to an iron workshop located five miles west of Tokyo city.

At that time, salt and iron were all monopolized by the imperial court, and there were two types of private operations if they wanted to operate them, one was to do it secretly, and the other was to buy it from the government.

Pumai is a system in which the government of the Song and Yuan Dynasties sold certain taxation rights or other powers to merchants and private households.It is very similar to the 'private contract' adopted by Guo Qigai in the 80s.
