"Playing Song"/Chunxi Di Xiao

Chapter 45

The rent for houses in the outer city is cheaper than that in the inner city, but not everyone can afford it. Cao Li likes a place and is an empty house next to the nursing home.

The so-called nursing home is a welfare institution that regularly adopts widowed, widowed, orphans after winter every year. There are some homeless elderly people and abandoned babies living in it.

An old man lives alone in this house, without a wife or a child, does not interact with others, does not participate in the imperial examination, and is accompanied by books throughout his life. Whenever he can't live, he posts a notice saying that he can rent half of the house and buy books and eat and drink.

Cao Li saw the old man's notice and immediately went to discuss with the old man. When the old man heard half of his young man say that he wanted to start a primary school, he laughed and said, "Let's ask your master to come and talk."

So the old man saw Wang Rong who looked like a little bean.

Old man: “…”

Perhaps because Wang Rong is really young, no matter how unreasonable it is, the old man has nothing to say.

After discussing between the two sides, the old man not only agreed to rent out most of the house, but also said that he could open his own room of books as a "principal library".

Wang Rong was very happy, but the old man made another suggestion: There are many abandoned children in the nursing home next door, and if they can be admitted to school together, he is willing to join him.

It turns out that the old man disdained love when he was young, but he felt lonely when he was old. He was bound to love the laughter and joy of the children beside him. He would buy some food to play with the children. Over time, he naturally became more worried.

Seeing that Wang Yun, a half-sized child, dared to rent a house to run a primary school, the old man also had the idea of ​​helping the children get enlightened.

After hearing this, Wang Yun agreed. He was not responsible for teaching, but the matter of restraining a group of naughty children was left to the old man and Mr. Liu!

So the two sides exchanged names. The old man, Sima Guang and others called Wang Yun at first glance, and Wang Yun called the old man "Grandpa Chang".

Old Man Chang wanted to participate, so the transformation work naturally went very smoothly.

Wang Yun chose three large houses with good lighting as classrooms, and also a small house as a "teacher office". He decided to go to several carpenter shops one after another to customize a batch of tables and chairs suitable for primary school use.

One of the classrooms is not for primary school purposes, but is intended for Wang Yun to open an evening school!

When I was in Yin County, the place was small and the names of each other were all over the streets and alleys of Dingkou. Therefore, everyone was very supportive when Wang Rong wanted to hold a "special lecture".

After two or three years, Wang Rong has been very experienced in this kind of professional training class.

Ordinary people don’t have much entertainment after nighttime. Some poor people will go to bed early in order to save lamps and oil. "Work at sunrise and rest at sunrise" is a portrayal of the lives of many ordinary people.

Wang Rong is planning to use this period of time to provide regular training for the people. Even if you do farm work, you can learn a more scientific and efficient composting method!

Of course, Fang Hong will also provide some employment positions, such as those who are literate, those who are carved, those who are carved, those who are acoustic, accounting positions in the main store branch and workshops, those who are willing to learn to make mirrors provide mirrors, and those who are willing to work in workshops provide worker positions. The salary is good and the benefits are sound!

These are Wang Rong's preliminary plans, and whether it can be realized must be practiced first. Wang Rong is not in a hurry at all. If anyone who has been trained in the early stage can have a good job, there is no need to worry that no one will come to participate.

As long as the methods taught in these training classes are more advanced than the current common methods, the impact of this "night school" will easily radiate to all walks of life and even become a weather vane for all walks of life.

Wang Yun stretched out his short round fingers and gestured, directing the painter to paint the smooth and flat "board" with black paint.

Seeing this new thing in front of him, Old Man Chang decided not to be ashamed to ask: "What's the use of this dark thing?"

"This is called a blackboard." Wang Rong explained to Old Man Chang, "its friends are called chalk, blackboard, white chalk, and it is very conspicuous when writing. When the Master met new words during his lecture, he wrote them on the blackboard with chalk on the spot, so that he didn't have to teach them one by one."

This is also the reason why Wang Yun promised to let the children in the nursing home come to class together. After having blackboards and chalk, it was like driving a duck. He just drove one to rush, and he was also rushing to rush a group to rush.

Old Man Chang understood the question, and he moved a chair and sat aside the supervisor every day. He waited for the craftsman to say that the blackboard could be used, and he rushed up to write a few words.

Old man Chang was very excited to see the clear and beautiful handwriting on the blackboard. With this blackboard and chalk, as long as someone is willing to teach, even in the mountains and the countryside, people can learn the words and learn literature!

When Wang Rong comes back, Old Man Chang will inevitably ask how chalk is made and how much it costs.

Wang Yun smiled and introduced to Old Man Chang: "Please take some white, gypsum and other materials, mix and stir in a certain proportion, and then pour the slurry into the mold and wait for it to form, which is very convenient."

Old Man Chang read a lot of books and also heard about white and gypsum. He knew that they were not very precious things, and he was even happier: "That's good!"

After the primary school was completed, Wang Rong really asked Cao Li to invite Liu Yong. Liu Yong asked Wang Rong not to go again, but in his heart he missed Wang Rong, the "little friend". Cao Li was invited to come with pride.

Liu Yong failed the exam many times in his early years, and his career was very unsuccessful. He did not really have high school until he was in his fifties.

After high school, his superiors disliked him. After his first official position, he was reluctant to change his post, and he was forced to wait in the capital for two years.

He is sixty-six years old this year and has not made much achievements in his career. He served as a Beijing official for several years and was released for several years. In the end, the court pity his age and gave him a seventh-rank military farmer, who was just a vacant position with an air salary and did not need to do anything.

Liu Yong's first wife married him at the age of fifteen. He had a conflict with his wife and left home to travel around. Soon after, his wife died of illness. Later, she married again many years later, and she was only in her thirties. She only got a son.

His son Liu Wei passed the imperial examination early four years ago and was appointed as the author of the official position. He was 25 years old and 27 or 28 years old. Liu Yong felt a little envious. In contrast, he became a writer at the age of 56 or 57, which was more than a little later than his son.

When Liu Wei first changed his post, the father and son lived together, but Liu Yong was unruly and there were inevitably all kinds of frictions when he lived with his family. After living together for less than two months, Liu Yong moved out of the hotel himself, and even if he was seriously ill, he would not let him know about his family.

Liu Yong was the least likely to be restrained in his life. The only thing he could restrain was the imperial examination that had caused him to wasted his whole life. He had been in dispute with his son for more than half a year.

Entering the newly renovated little "prime school", Liu Yong saw an old man pulling the rope hanging from the eaves. A hanging bell hung on the rope. When he pulled the rope, the jingle sound easily broke the silence around him.

When the old man saw Liu Yong, he let go of the rope in his hand and smiled at him: "You are Mr. Liu, right?"

This old man is naturally Old Man Chang.

When the two sides exchanged their names, Liu Yong followed Old Man Chang to walk around the newly renovated elementary school. When he saw the bright and clean environment and fresh blackboard chalk, he suddenly felt that he had entered another world.

Primary school officially begins.

The people with families and children in Wuyou Cave were successfully incorporated by Cao Li. These people had already taken care of some errands in the capital. Cao Li made a list of them and according to Wang Rong's instructions, the man was equipped with unified clothing and responsible for the work of delivering express and food delivery in the city, training people and expanding other businesses.

Women can do a lot. After training, they can take some fine work from Fang Hongna to help supplement their home use.

Although they could not get a house for each of them, their children sat in a clean and tidy classroom and received the enlightenment education of Old Man Chang and Mr. Liu. Every morning, Cao Li led the people outside the elementary school and stood there, listening to the sound of children reading aloud in the elementary school.

Even though they still have to work hard to make ends meet and live a life of having a meal but not a meal, and may be driven out of the "Worry-free Cave" where they live at any time, there is finally some hope in life.

Their children will learn to read and make words, and they will never be able to become great scholars in the future - everything is inferior, but they can only read with high standards!

Cao Li's eyes were still very reliable when he selected people. Until the September Festival began, there was no problem in the entire compilation process.

In fact, there were many people who were not included in the roster by Cao Li, all of whom were cunning and cunning. However, the high ceremony was approaching, and all the people hiding in Wuyou Cave had to be human with their tails, so these guys did not start to counterattack.

Sima Guang and Wang Anshi all participated in the September Festival with hundreds of officials in the court. After this troublesome sacrifice, the "public rental housing" area was full of joy.

After Wang Yun asked, he realized that the government had been amnesty and promoted and raised all officials in the court. If they saw each other, each person's salary would be increased by one level.

What has been happier than salary since ancient times? Even Wang Anren, who has always been upright and restrained, was very happy and cut three pounds of mutton and invited Wang Rong's family to eat it.

Wang Anren was in poor health and had to keep it well. He could not eat mutton, a fishy and irritating thing. Wang Anshi did not drink alcohol, so the two brothers only drank tea while chatting.

Wang Yun was eating happily, but his ears were always standing tall. He listened to Wang Anshi and Wang Anren talking about the affairs of the court. During their conversation, Wang Yun heard a name: Bao Zhijian.

Zhijian is an official name, and the full name is Zhijianyuan, and the name is a censor. The so-called censor naturally has to actively point fingers at the people in the court, and refer to this book and that book, which can be said to be in charge of injustice in the court.

Bao Zhijian was very brave and participated in several books of Concubine Zhang's uncle Zhang Yaozuo. When he saw the official family, he criticized him for being a nepotist and put Zhang Yaozuo, the foreign relative, on Feique!

The official family was criticized by him and other censors for being dismissed from Zhang Yaozuo's position as the Third Session (the highest finance chief of the country). He turned around and wanted to give Zhang Yaozuo something else, but he was criticized by Bao Zhijian again.

Wang Yun listened with relish, but he muttered in his heart: Why do you feel that this style is a bit familiar?

The author has something to say:

Wang Xiaorong: It seems that Mr. Bao has seen this place somewhere...

Tiantianchun was only fifteen minutes late today!!
