Compulsory education in ancient times

Dr. Feng took another half step forward, pushed Tao Jianran to the corner of the bed, and then said in a deep voice: "Since the little friend is fine, I should go back and report to the master. Here is the 500 taels of silver note, which the master gave to the little one." My thanks. From now on, little friend, remember not to tell anyone what happened that day!" As he spoke, he took out five bank notes from the medicine box and handed them to Tao Jianran.

Tao Jianran looked at the five white silver bills in front of him, as if he saw five bright lights in the gloomy life!

What is a turnaround?What is drowsiness and someone gives you a pillow?This is!

Tao Jianran hurriedly took the bank note, no matter what Dr. Feng said, he agreed with it.Anyway, he didn't have the memory of the original owner, so he didn't know anything about what happened before, so he couldn't let it out.

After Dr. Feng finished his explanation, his face returned to gentleness, and he took out two more prescriptions: "This is a prescription for internal and external application. You must not stop the medicine before the wound scabs."

"Thank you, Dr. Feng." This is a life-saving item, and Tao Yanran also solemnly put it away.

Doctor Feng gave some instructions on the usual dietary taboos before leaving.

【Oops~ Congratulations to the host for obtaining novice funds~ This system provides change service~】

[Can you help me collect the money? 】500 taels of silver ticket!Although I don't know how the price is here, it is already a huge sum of money for Tao Jianran now, and I always feel that it is not safe to put it anywhere.

[Yes~ The current first-level system comes with a storage space of one cubic meter~]

Hearing this, a small square space appeared in front of Tao Jianran's eyes, it was dark like a small box, and he could directly put his hand into it.Put the banknotes and prescriptions away, and with a thought, the space disappears.

Finally free, Tao Yanran hurriedly asked the system about the original owner.

The original owner is also named Tao Jianran, and he is the only scholar in ten miles and eight villages.His parents died two years ago, leaving only three siblings.The original owner has no other skills, so he can only go to the county to copy books for others in exchange for some money and food to survive.The big green brick house I live in now was built when my parents were still alive, but in the past two years, almost all the furniture in it has been sold out, and it has long since lost its former glory.

A month ago, on the way back to the village from the county, the original owner ran into a group of robbers who hijacked a young son from a rich family. He was very unlucky to be implicated, and even stabbed the young master.Fortunately, rescuers came soon, and the young master left the accompanying doctor to be treated by the original owner, that is, Doctor Feng.

The poor original owner had been impoverished for the past two years, and he was also malnourished. He bled profusely after being hacked, and the wound was inflamed and festered. The will to survive, which was not very strong at first, gradually disappeared after being tortured by the pain for a month.No matter how good Dr. Feng's medical skills were, the original owner couldn't make it through, which made Tao Jianran a lonely soul.

After hearing what happened to the original owner, Tao Yanran also sighed.Now that this shell is used, those younger siblings are now his younger siblings, and now that he has money in his hands, no matter what nine-year compulsory education he has, let's live his life first!Especially the little girl who looked only about ten years old just now is already 14 years old. If she doesn't make up her body well, she might not grow taller anymore!

After learning about the prices in this world, Tao Jianran exchanged ten copper coins through the system and hid them under the pillow.A consistent is one hundred coppers, and a ten consistent is one tael.In the era when ordinary people were basically bartering, one tael of silver was enough for an ordinary family to chew for half a year, which can be said to be a huge sum of money.

As soon as Tao Jianran hid the copper coins, the younger sister came in with a bowl.

"Brother, Aunt Li brought some eggs over today and cooked you a bowl of custard. You eat first, and the meal will be ready soon." After Tao Xiaomei finished speaking, she spooned a spoonful of custard into Tao Jianran's mouth.

It was the first time for Tao Yanran to be fed by someone younger than him, so he coughed awkwardly and said, "I'll do it by myself." He just couldn't move his left shoulder, so he was fine for a meal or something.

When Tao Xiaomei heard this, she handed the spoon to Tao Jianran, and she sat aside with the bowl.

Tao Yanran was not used to being watched while eating, so he awkwardly finished a bowl of egg custard and said, "You can cook two more eggs, you and my younger brother will each have one."

"No need, save the rest for big brother to replenish his body. My little brother and I don't like to eat eggs." The little girl refused without thinking.

Seeing the little girl's usual attitude, Tao Yanran felt a little distressed.Meat is not common these days, and eggs are also rare items. Except for those who are allergic to eggs, who doesn't like to eat eggs.

Tao Yanran didn't expose her, but said mysteriously: "Go and see what's under my pillow."

Tao Xiaomei didn't know why, so she touched under the pillow and found out the money, she was shocked instantly.

Seeing Tao Xiaomei's childish appearance for the first time, Tao Yan smiled smugly, and took out the prepared speech: "You also know that this time my brother went out to meet a nobleman, and the nobleman hired him to do things for him, so our family will not have to worry about food and clothing in the future. As he said, he also took out the nine copper coins under the pillow and showed it to the younger sister.

When Dr. Feng sent the original owner back before, he used the excuse that the original owner fell on the side of the road and was met by a kind man, so he sent him back to help heal.Now that Dr. Feng is gone, Tao Jianran just made a big fuss.Anyway, as long as he doesn't tell the matter that even he doesn't know, that young master shouldn't care about him... right?

Where has Tao Xiaomei seen so much money? She was both surprised and hesitant: "With so much money, the nobleman won't let elder brother do something dangerous, right?"

Unexpectedly, when faced with the temptation of money, Tao Xiaomei's first reaction would be her elder brother's safety. Tao Jianran's heart warmed up, and she quickly said: "Don't worry, the nobleman just asked my brother to run a school for him and help him find some useful people." Tao Jianran I lied and made a draft, but now my face is not blushing and my heart is not beating.

Hearing this, Tao Xiaomei also felt relieved.After all, her elder brother is the only scholar in ten miles and eight towns. If a school is to be established, it is only natural that nobles will find elder brother.For her elder brother, Tao Xiaomei is so blindly confident!

"So, you just boil the egg. From now on, we will each have an egg a day, so we don't need to save money." Tao Yanran patted the little girl's shoulder, "Now my brother can't move around, so you can just buy what's missing at home."

Presumably, during the period when the original owner was in a coma, the older girls should be doing the housework, so shopping for such things is probably a no-brainer.But Tao Yanran was afraid that Tao Xiaomei would not want to spend the money, so he threatened: "You must spend all the ten coins tomorrow, or my brother will be angry." He said, and put on a serious expression.

Tao Xiaomei was frightened by Tao Jianran's loud tone. Although she hadn't touched that much money before, she still knew what the money meant. How can I spend so much money, and the elder brother needs to continue to take medicine for his injury, so I should save some..."

"Don't worry, as long as things are done well, the money will not be lost to us, so you can just spend it." Tao Yanran waved his hand and interrupted Tao Xiaomei, "Besides, money is your own money only when it is spent. The house can only be regarded as a pile of broken copper and rotten iron. Instead of keeping it moldy, it is better to use it to improve life. Only when you and the younger brother are healthy and healthy, the eldest brother can work for the nobles with peace of mind and earn more money in the future! If you cover If you don’t want to spend the money, what will you do if you and your younger brother are hungry and sick? What if you are cold? The elder brother has to take care of you both. Take a long-term perspective, don’t get dizzy because of the small profit in front of you, and lose the watermelon while picking up sesame seeds.”

"This, this, this..." It was the first time that Tao Xiaomei heard such an argument that subverted her values, and even compared money to scrap metal?And it sounds reasonable.

"Okay, it's so decided, go and think about what you want to buy." Tao Yanran drove the fainting Tao Xiaomei out without giving her a chance to refute.

After Tao Xiaomei was dealt with, after a dinner of clear soup and little water, Tao Lian lay on the bed and began to plan.

The nine-year compulsory education is not something that can be done with a touch of the upper and lower lips. According to the system, the production level in Ruichao, where he is now, is not high, and farmers can barely make ends meet throughout the year.Those who can provide a scholar like the original owner's parents are already considered wealthy.

Although there is no tuition fee for compulsory education, one must always write when going to school. Pens, ink, paper and inkstones are luxury items these days.In addition, at this time, half-grown children are also a labor force, and children aged four or five can go out to mow grass and feed chickens. Letting children go to school full-time is equivalent to raising a freelancer. I don’t know how many parents here One can be willing... It's really worrying.

[Host, this system has sorted out the teaching materials for the first grade of elementary school that are suitable for this plane~ Please copy as soon as possible~]

[What the hell?You have to copy the textbooks yourself! 】

[Yes~ This system only provides knowledge, it cannot create things out of thin air~]

【Isn't it the promised omnipotent system? ! 】

【Huh~!Stupid host! 】

Seemingly being stabbed, the system said something angrily, and then stopped talking.

Fortunately, when Tao Jianran learned that even the education funds had to be paid by himself, he had already realized that his system was unreliable, and he was not disappointed at this time.It’s just that there’s one more expense after all the calculations, the 500 taels doesn’t seem to be very cost-effective...

On the first night of time travel, Tao Yanran couldn't sleep well.It's autumn now, and it's cold at night, but the bedding on my body is hard, and it can't resist the cold.Still thinking about it in a daze, I finally know what it feels like "the cloth quilt has been cold as iron for many years".

In the dream, he didn't know what he dreamed of, and he tossed and turned all night. Tao Jianran woke up the next day and it was almost noon, but his eyes were black and blue, as if he hadn't slept in dozens of days.
