Lin Ji's struggling life

When Lin Ji arrived in Pingliang, more than half of January had already passed.The atmosphere of the New Year has not yet faded. When he arrived at the government office, he first dealt with the accumulated official duties.In fact, apart from the routine document approval, there was no major issue, and several disputes between Muslims and Han people were successfully resolved under the handling of Liu Tongpan.He reviewed all the official documents, and it took him less than an hour to understand the big and small things that happened during this period, so he felt relieved.

He found that Liu Tong's judgment ability is good, he is indeed stable and generous, and he and Mr. Wu cooperated seamlessly, making him a good partner.Lin Ji is also willing to delegate power to the two of them, and they will be responsible for many trivial matters.After taking care of the overall situation, he took Lin Dong to the city to look at the house after he dealt with the matter at hand.

Lin Dong had already found a place these days. It was an open space in the south of the city, and it was still barren.The advantage here is that the terrain is flat, and there are not many residents around, so the environment is quiet.Looking at the land, Lin Ji began to draw the blueprint of the academy in his mind.

Lin Ji let out the news that he was going to build an academy, and several rich local households in Pingliang came to the door one after another. Some wanted to donate some money, some wanted to donate land as a house, and some even wanted to build an academy for Lin Ji.In fact, this is also a routine, Lin Ji is restrained. He has been here for nearly a year, but he has not received any filial piety. On the contrary, he has brought a lot of income to the people of Pingliang.Now that he is going to build an academy, people who know a little bit will naturally come out one after another, not letting go of this opportunity to make friends with new colleagues.

In fact, in Pingliang, Lin Ji's background is no secret. His father, Lin Ruhai, is a second-rank member of the court, and his father-in-law is a county king. It is said that he has a close friendship with the Zhang family.And Lin Ji himself is a third-rank captain of light vehicles, he was the emperor's imperial bodyguard, and he heard that during the New Year, he was called into the palace by the Holy One to reward him with many good things.These rumors made people in Pingliang afraid of Lin Ji, but also convinced him.

So his work in Pingliang went very smoothly.

For everyone's acquaintance, Lin Ji is naturally very useful.Of course, he will not be greedy for credit, and make it clear to everyone that these donations will be clearly written in an inscription and placed in front of the main entrance of the academy.How could everyone miss this opportunity to live forever, so they all poured out their money to help, and before the construction started, this academy already had a large amount of start-up funds.

Lin Ji handed over this matter to Kang Da, a well-known local builder. Under his overall management, the academy was built step by step according to the drawings provided by Lin Ji.First the blank room, then the fine decoration, then the greening, and then the decoration.After three months, a perfect academy was established in this way.

In addition to the teaching area, it also divides the living area and activity area. Lin Ji provides an extremely comfortable environment for the students.After learning that the academy does not charge tuition fees for recruiting students, many helpers expressed their willingness to send their children to study.

But now the capacity of the academy is limited, Lin Ji just wants to do pre-school education, that is, only recruit children over six years old and under ten years old.

All aspects of the academy are very advanced, in addition to the unusually beautiful school building, the requirements are also quite strange.On the day of the entrance examination, there was a large list hanging at the entrance of the academy, on which were written the admission requirements of this academy in detail!

What Lin Ji cited was the modern compulsory education system. According to the division of regions, local students are given priority in recruiting, and after interviews, suitable students are retained.After that, students from foreign governments, or even students from other provinces, will be considered if there are degrees left.

The academy has prescribed uniforms, two sets per season, and students have to stay in the academy, with food and lodging included in the academy, each dormitory is for four people, three meals a day are fixed, and the menu will be announced on the first day of every ten days.The academy has a day off every ten days, and students can choose to go home or continue their studies in the academy.There are exams every month, and rewards for those who rank top, usually in addition to pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and money.

Even so, there are not many people who can afford to read. After all, in addition to eating and drinking, reading also has a lot of expenses such as pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Lin Ji named the academy Liupan Academy, which is simple and clear.

The vigorous entrance examination has passed, and the little Doudings also leave their parents and come to Liupan Academy to study.Lin Ji recruited a total of six teachers, so he divided these children into four classes according to their ages, who would teach them in turn, and hired a martial arts master to teach riding and archery.

In addition to the dormitory for the students, the dormitory area of ​​the academy also has a house for the husband. It provides a courtyard of three rooms, which is not big, but it is enough to live in.Except that the kitchen staff are all male cooks and kitchen workers, several nearby women were also hired to take care of the children's accommodation in the dormitory.

It can be said that all aspects have been considered.

Before the reputation of Liupan Academy was spread, it was already overcrowded, and when Lin Ji saw this situation, several counties in Pingliang began to set up such academies.The expenses of these academies are supplied by the output of the workshop he has on hand, and the output of the purchased fields is used to make up for the shortage.In this way, apart from the initial investment, Lin Ji owned four academies without spending any of his own money later.

Of course, such an academy does not belong to Lin Ji himself, but to the Pingliang government office.Mr. Qiu naturally knew about it, but the autumn has not yet started, and the childbirth test has just passed, how effective the Liupan Academy will be remains to be seen.

However, this matter was placed on Mr. Qiu's desk, and became the focus of observation together with Lin Ji's workshop.

More than half a year has passed in such a hurry, Lin Ji and Zarafon'a have been communicating with Zarafon'a through letters, and seeing the more and more lovely daughter on the jade board, he is burning with anxiety.Zarafon'a originally wanted to bring his children to Pingliang to visit Lin Ji, and Lin Ji had already managed the place well during his more than a year in Pingliang.The convenience of his house in Pingliang is comparable to the old house in Suzhou, and the house in the capital is not as good as here.

This is also the reason why Lin Ji has always insisted that Zarafon'a bring the children. He misses his wife and children and can create better conditions for them.Of course, Zarafon'a's consideration is also reasonable. After all, the child is still young and the journey is not too short, so it is better not to take risks.

More importantly, the rest of the Lin family cannot do without this little Douding.Now the new favorite of the Lin family is this little baby, nicknamed Doudou.Lin Ruhai hasn't made up his mind until now, he always feels that he has to choose well to be worthy of his precious granddaughter.

Doudou is now more than six months old, and her little feet are so strong that she still hurts when she pushes.In summer, wearing this little red bellyband, lying on the bamboo mat, Qingqing teased her beside her.I saw Doudou's white and tender limbs stretching out like lotus joints, bubbling and making meaningless noises from her small mouth.

Lin Daiyu and Zarafon'a sat at the table looking at the ledger, looking at them from time to time.I saw Qingqing holding a red-dyed rattle shaking in front of Doudou's eyes, alternately left and right, and kept muttering: "Doudou, look at this side, look at this side!"

Xiaodoudou was also awake, her little head swayed left and right, and kept moving.

"Qingqing, go and wipe off your sweat, your forehead is almost dripping." Lin Daiyu ordered Fusang to wipe Qingqing's sweat, and at the same time drove people to change places for Doudou.

This summer, even though the child is in the house, the child still can't move, and has been lying in one place, and over time, a circle of prickly heat can grow on the back.

"Okay!" Qingqing was obedient and hurried to go.She is now six years old, lively and cheerful, and also very cute. Of course, she is not gorgeous, but delicate.

Zarafona put down the ledger in his hand and stretched himself, then picked up his daughter and teased her cheerfully.Lin Daiyu also stretched out her head and pinched Doudou's cheek with her hand. The soft touch made her feel happy, and she didn't even mind the accidental saliva.

To be honest, Doudou is very popular in Lin's family. The first thing Qingqing does when she wakes up every day is to come and play with Doudou, usually she teases Doudou.And Lin Ruhai would order someone to bring his granddaughter to him every day when he went to court, and give him kisses and kisses.Needless to say, Lin Daiyu moved her original office from the main courtyard to Zarafon'a's courtyard, and stayed here every day.

Lin Ji looked at the description of Zarafon A's letter, and was also very anxious, with various emotions of envy and jealousy.But all his proposals were rejected by Zarafon'a. The weather was too hot, and he had no choice but to hold back the anxiety in his heart and anxiously wait for the weather to cool down!

But now is the critical juncture in Pingliang, his academy is still in the construction stage, and the cooperative production model has not yet been popularized.He still needs to continue to work hard. Lin Ji, who often runs around, has lost a lot of weight and darkened a lot, but he is indeed much more energetic.

It was as if he had found his backbone and regained his brilliance.

Under Lin Ji's endless call, Zarafeng'a finally decided to take Doudou to Pingliang to accompany her husband after autumn.Since the two got married, they have been together less often and separated more. Adding in the time since she was pregnant and gave birth, it has been a long time since they have been intimate.Zarafon'a did not inquire about Lin Ji's solution, nor did Lin Ji take the initiative to mention it.

Lin Ji's time was squeezed by the busy work, he was busy with trivial matters every day, and he could fall asleep when he lay down on the bed after familiarizing himself with it.Continuous high-pressure work, coupled with irregular work and rest schedules, he began to have many signs of premature aging, such as snoring.

Lin Ji has studied "The God of Medicine" by himself, so he naturally understands it, and he is still very clear about the physical reaction.After the end of summer, he found that his body was not right, and he began to get tired easily.So he began to pay attention to health preservation. When a lot of medicinal materials were prepared, he asked the kitchen to cook them into medicinal meals, and forced himself to eat them with nausea.

Things in the academy have a fixed development pattern, so he doesn't need to keep an eye on them all the time.So Lin Ji developed three-dimensional agriculture in the village he bought, recycling various conditions, exerting the greatest effect and obtaining the most harvest.Of course, his purpose of doing this is to promote this model and let more people follow suit.

In this way, Lin Ji waited for his wife and daughter to come while he was busy.
