Section 37 Science

Although the price is very expensive, Zhang Fang has nothing to say about this service.

These ten families can tell at a glance that they are all loyal, and they have many strong men, and every family has several children.

In fact, among these families, Xiao Heng’s favorite is not the middle-aged men, but the eleven or twelve-year-old children.

For the ancients, eleven or 2-year-old children were about to become adults, which could only be considered half a labor force. For Xiao Heng, the worldview of these children has not yet been completely fixed and has a certain degree of plasticity. It is far easier to accept novel theories and knowledge than those adults who have long been tortured by life.

After a few questions, only one of these children, a twelve-year-old boy knew a few words, and the boys and girls, including all adults, were the most standard illiterate... and Xiao Heng also found that these adults were not so honest and honest, but rather had certain communication barriers, and they could not even fully pay attention to Xiao Heng's questions. Moreover, there were places where words were not fulfilled or incoherent when answering.

Such people are already very rare in modern society, and even people living in deep mountains and forests will not be so dull.

Looking at these dozens of submissive and cautious refugees, Xiao Heng suddenly sighed in his heart - No wonder scholars in this era have such a high status. If you don’t study, you even lack the ability to express your needs. Why do you still talk about equality and freedom? It’s not that others say anything.

These ten families of refugees signed the contract one by one, and from today on their entire family will be considered tenants of the Qin Mansion.

When Xiao Heng took these families away, other refugees looked enviously, and dozens of people of all sizes also showed a smile on their faces.

If you have fields, you can eat food, and if you have food, you can survive.

Sometimes human pursuit is so simple.

Zhang Fang took the group of people back to the city in a mighty manner, muttered a few words to the soldier, and showed the contracts of these people. After repeated verification, Xiao Heng and his group finally entered the city gate smoothly.

Of course... in addition to the complete and sufficient preparation of procedures, the most important thing is to stuff the half-tied copper coins to the soldier.

After passing the city gate, there was no obstacle. Xiao Heng and his party returned to Zhang Fang's tea shop to meet with the blacksmith who had already packed their bags, and then headed eastward, exiting the city gate and headed straight for Qin Mansion.

...

There were suddenly ten more families in the manor, which became completely lively, and housing became a problem for the first time.

Due to family incompleteness and safety considerations, Xiao Heng and the others have always lived in the two-story building in the yard on the right. Xiao Heng and Lao Ma live below, and the two ladies and a girl live above.

The four new maids and two maids were temporarily arranged in a lower room in the lower area on the left.

Originally, Xiao Heng planned to build ten tiled houses for the new people behind the Qin Mansion, but unfortunately the masons have been transferred by the government, so they can only live in two trunk rooms according to men and women rather than family units.

The servants' rooms were all large shops. Not to mention these thirty or forty people, even if there were twenty or forty people, there were only twenty or thirty people assigned to each servant's room, which was completely squeezed. After Xiao Heng handed over the allocated trivial work to Xiaodie, he brought the blacksmith apprentice who followed him to the main gate of the Qin Mansion.

There is a wing room turning left at the main entrance of Qin Mansion, so Xiao Heng temporarily arranged him here.

"The bed and bedding are new, you can use it with confidence. Come and take a look. What else is missing? If you think you have something missing, go find Xiaodie - the girl you just met." Xiao Heng said with a smile, "She is our God of Wealth."

"...It's already very good." The blacksmith apprentice asked impatiently, "When will I start learning what... knowledge?"

"Science." Xiao Heng repeated the same way again, and he didn't know how many times he had repeated the way.

"Are you literate?"

"Can write a name."

"Well... you seem to have a lot of things to learn." Xiao Heng hesitated for a moment, "You can learn while doing iron smelting, but cultural courses require you to work hard."

"..." The blacksmith apprentice raised his strong arms and touched the back of his head. He didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry, I'll teach you when I look back." Xiao Heng patted his shoulder.

He did teach, but it was not just Wang Tiechui who was the only student... When he thought of this tall guy sitting with a group of teenage children, licking the pencil head to calculate addition and subtraction within ten, Xiao Heng's mouth couldn't help but curl upwards.

Wang Tiechui looked at Xiao Heng who was smiling brightly in fear, and suddenly shuddered for no reason.

Xiao Heng's many plans require a blacksmith, so he will naturally polish the blacksmith apprentice who is amazingly skilled.

After settling down this key figure, Xiao Heng seemed to walk towards the small garden. Xiaodie said that the two ladies were in the small garden.

As soon as he entered the small garden, Xiao Heng saw two ladies sitting in the pavilion, one was drinking while the other was playing the piano.

The sound of the zither is the beauty of Luoshui.

The scenery here is as beautiful as a painting.

"Young Master?" The sound of the Qin sound suddenly broke, and Miss Qin waved to this side.

"Yes." Xiao Heng approached and looked at the girl in white suspiciously... She was still covering her face, not knowing how the wine she drank just now.

"I have brought everyone back, at least I can see it for the time being. I have to continue to observe the specific nature of my heart." After Xiao Heng said, he looked at the two ladies and said, "But how this person is used, I want to tell you some things."

"...Aren't you the tenant you found? How many more guards will be recruited from it?" asked the girl in white.

"Yes, but not just that." Xiao Heng looked at the two ladies, "I'm going to organize the children and teach them something...such as literacy and counting."

"This is also very good. Culture and education will prosper the world." Miss Qin praised.

"...I want to teach them something else." Xiao Heng asked, "something that may cause you trouble."

Both ladies became more serious. The girl in white thought about it and asked, "What is it? Is it convenient to tell us?"

"It seems like something that may be considered unconventional by tradition, but it is also something that will open up a new era, drive away ignorance, and make barbarism completely unable to defeat civilization." Xiao Heng said lightly.

Miss Qin seemed to believe it so simply, and the girl in white frowned and asked, "Is there such knowledge in this world?"
