Spatial Farming: Rough Man Orion Dotes on His Wife Too Much

Chapter 157 Investment
Gu Rao coughed lightly.

"I'm so much younger than you. I'm so embarrassed to ask you to worship me as a teacher for a long time. Just let me be a teacher. Just give me ten taels of silver."

"I'll teach you arithmetic if you give me the money."

Gao Caitong is very persistent on this matter.

"Since ancient times, masters have been teachers. Your achievements in arithmetic may not be comparable to those of some professional scholars. I still take advantage of you as my teacher."

"How can ten taels of silver be enough?"

"50 taels of silver, if the teacher thinks it is not enough, you can add more."

This is the first time he has been in business for so many years, when others offer the price, instead of lowering the price, he raises the price himself.

It can be seen how much importance is attached to apprenticeship.

Gu Rao did not expect that there would be a surprise.

"After you learn the method of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, you don't need to use an abacus to calculate small amounts in the future, and you can easily calculate it mentally."

Gu Rao said again, "You not only need to read, but also write. Let's stop here today. Follow this piece of paper and write the things on it a hundred times. After you finish writing, come to the first place where you can go to the South Street Stone Bridge." The three families came to me and handed over the written manuscript to me for review, and if there were mistakes, we continued to correct them, and if there were no mistakes, we began to learn addition."

"The Arabic numerals on the top correspond to the numbers below. You should read it a few times after me first, and gradually become familiar with these Arabic numerals."

"Master is magnificent!"

Gao Caitong asked, "After learning the formulas and formulas you mentioned, can I easily calculate the difficult problem I just gave you just like you?"

Gu Rao nodded.

"Master, if I use the numbers you taught me to keep accounts in the future, won't it be a lot easier? These Arabic numerals seem to be very simple to write!"

Moreover, teaching one person is teaching, and teaching a group of people is also teaching. Why not spend one time of energy and teach more people?
It seemed that he could see Gu Rao's heartbeat.

Although Gu Rao was not used to it, she still cooperated with Gao Caitong to drink the respecting teacher tea. Originally, it was only for money, but after drinking the respecting teacher tea so solemnly, she really regarded Gao Caitong as an apprentice in her heart.

Gu Rao shook his head.

"Yes, you can learn what you want to learn."

Gao Caitong knelt down and offered Gu Rao some tea.

"It's up to you."

"If you still want to calculate large numbers quickly without using an abacus, you must continue to learn addition formulas, subtraction formulas, multiplication formulas, and division formulas."

"Such a good thing can't be taught to others for nothing. We can use this method to earn a lot of money... we can start with half a private school to teach mathematics!"

Gao Caitong continued, "Master, you don't have to worry about running a private school. I have a lot of real estate under my name. When you have time, just go with me to choose one to use as a school. If you really have With the thought of running a school, I can start recruiting people now."

What's the matter with the pressure?

Gao Caitong had a face of trust.

The corner of Gu Rao's mouth twitched.

Gao Caitong read aloud obediently.

Write down the addition table now.

"Have you learned?"

"In the future, if other people want to learn, I will introduce it to the master. If the master wants to accept it, he can accept it. If he doesn't want to accept it, I can accept it. You just need to be their master!"

Gao Caitong hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help asking, "Master, can I study with my son? I only have one son, and I will definitely entrust him with the family business in the future."

Gao Caitong's eyes that were not too big burst out with a thirst for knowledge.

"You haven't learned much from me, and you rush to help me run a school and recruit students. Aren't you afraid that I'm actually an empty shell, causing you to waste so much energy?"

Gu Rao, "..."

After reading it several times, I finally understood the meaning.

Gu Rao thinks she is not a patient person, especially when it comes to teaching others some basic things, but Gao Caitong looked at the addition table with a blank expression, which made her realize that even Arabic numerals have not been taught to him yet. , Let him learn the formula of addition first, a little bit of a tower attack.

"I have to learn!"

"Don't worry, my son won't learn in vain, and he also needs teaching fees. However, he is my son after all. If I worship you as a teacher, my seniority with him will be messed up. So, can you let him worship me as his teacher?" Master, be your disciple?"

Gu Rao hummed.

"Take your time, you can't become a big fat man with one bite."

He told himself that he had received the money and drank other people's apprenticeship tea. It is too late to regret it now, so let's continue to teach patiently. As long as he wants to learn, he will teach himself. How much he can learn depends on his own ability and good luck.

"When these are learned, no matter how large the amount is, you can easily calculate it."

Suddenly, I feel that teaching an apprentice is not an easy task, especially in learning, such a proactive apprentice!

"1 is one, 2 is two, 3 is three..."

So impatient, wrote another sheet of Arabic numerals from one to one hundred, and under the number, wrote the words "Times from one to ten".

For easy calculation, Arabic numerals are used directly.

Running a school to teach can not only earn money, but also promote the cultural development of this era, and it can be regarded as a good deed. Isn’t it the best of both worlds?

Gao Caitong's eyes lit up.

Gu Rao nodded.

"Master, how can you belittle yourself?"

Of course she won't refuse.

Gao Caitong said honestly, "I will follow along with the reading, but once I leave this paper, I probably won't be able to remember how to read these numbers again."

Gao Caitong looked bewildered.

"Why don't I recognize any of the things above?" Before Gu Rao could answer, he immediately thought of Gu Rao's mental arithmetic ability, and said excitedly, "Is this the unique secret of your mental arithmetic ability?"

"The formulas and formulas are just getting started. If you want to be like me, you have to learn a lot."

Gu Rao, "..."

"The words on it are Arabic numerals. What I wrote for you is an addition table. I will teach you to do addition first. After you memorize the addition formula, I will call you the subtraction formula, multiplication formula, and division formula."

Therefore, he still couldn't understand the addition table by himself.

Should it be said that it is an old fritter that has been in the market for many years?Everything can be thought of in terms of business, but... His proposal is worth trying.

But 50 taels of silver is enough, and if you are too greedy, you will look ugly, "I will devote myself wholeheartedly to teach you everything I have learned in my life."

"Even if the master doesn't know anything other than teaching people these Arabic numerals, there must be someone who is willing to follow along. These numbers are much more convenient and quicker to write than the numbers we usually write. If you really learn it, you can use it in the future." It can save a lot of pen and ink.”

Gu Rao patted Gao Caitong on the shoulder in relief, then took out the 50 taels of silver notes that he had just received, and stuffed them into Gao Caitong's hands.

"The money is my investment in the early stage of running the school. Now I hand over the money to you, and I will give you full power to run the school and recruit students."

Although she did have these thoughts, she still felt that it was a bit too playful. The students she received at the beginning might not be too many, so she didn't bother to spend too much energy on it.
