Chapter 70
Not only Zhao Jun's eyes widened, but Qingliu Wang Deng beside her were all stunned.

No one thought that the county magistrate Lu would be so young?

The man looked to be in his early twenties, and his face was a little tanned, but he could tell that his foundation was white.

He is not handsome, but he is also very handsome. Even wearing ordinary clothes, he looks different from those ordinary people.

It was such a county magistrate, Zhao Jun put away the shock in his heart and walked over.

"Presumably this is Mr. Nei Shi, the lower official is really inappropriate and far-fetched."

As soon as Lu Jing saw them, he immediately reacted, put down the broom in his hand, and saluted Zhao Jun.

"It doesn't matter, you are the Magistrate Lu of Fangling County, and you have heard your name for a long time."

"Don't dare, I have seen Mr. Neishi."

Zhao Jun doesn't like to play polite with others, especially when he is about the same age as this County Magistrate Lu.

"How does county magistrate Lu know that I am an internal historian? You are so young and no one will recognize you unless you introduce yourself."

Seeing Lu Jing, she recognized her as Nei Shi almost without being stunned.

"Back to your lord, the person who delivered the letter before revealed your gender, so you can recognize it just by looking at it."

Lu Jing didn't say any polite words, but replied straightforwardly.

"So, that's right, I should have gotten the news."

Zhao Jun was dumbfounded. With her special status and special gender, she must say hello in advance, otherwise I'm afraid it will be a joke.

"I just passed by the county government and heard that you plan to open a school. Is this the location?"

There were not many pleasantries, she looked at the room in front of her and asked about the business directly.

"Yes, this is a good place. It was hard to find this house. Don't miss it, but it is already very good."

He was less reserved when it came to business.

"Why is the location here?"

Zhao Jun looked at the earthen house in front of him. Although it didn't look good, he could understand it.

But she didn't understand the location. It wasn't in the county seat or in any village. There didn't seem to be many houses nearby.

"It's such an adult. We have carefully considered the location, because we have to take care of several villages. This is a center that is close to all villages."

"Then why not put it directly in the county?" Jun Zhao asked again.

"Uh, running a school is my own idea, and I didn't tell the higher authorities that the county doesn't have much money, so I can't afford to build a house in the county."

Lu Jing said with a little embarrassment.

"Understood, are you repairing the house today?"

She looked around and found that there were tools on the ground, and the others seemed to have just finished working.

Following her gaze, Lu Jing remembered that he hadn't introduced him yet.

"I'm sorry I forgot just now, Lord Neishi, these are all from the county government." He pointed to the people behind and introduced them one by one.

"This is the county magistrate of Kongzheng and the county lieutenant of Fanghu."

"The ones over there are the nearby pavilion chiefs, who came to help."

Zhao Jun nodded as a greeting.

"You just said you were repairing the house. Yes, we were repairing it just now. This house was originally built by a single man in the village. Then he went to join the army. The house in this place is vacant. Now it can be used as a school. .”

"But it has been in disrepair for a long time, and there are holes in many places, so everyone repaired it together."

Zhao Jun nodded and looked around, it can be seen that it was repaired with care.

Although it is said to be an earthen house, it is mainly built with wood, and the repairs are also made of wood.

Although it still looks broken, there are no other holes except for two light-transmitting window holes.

"This house seems to be basically usable. What about the others? Have you contacted the children from all over the world? I heard that you have prepared an enlightenment book. Who can you ask to teach the children?"

Lu Jing was stopped by her question, not because he didn't know how to answer these questions.

He had thought about these problems before and solved some of them.

He just didn't expect the Nei Shi to ask so carefully and seem to be caring.

You know, this school will be thankless for at least the next two years.

That's why he didn't report it, because even if he did, no one would take care of it.

If this internal historian hadn't come directly to the local area, he wouldn't have said anything.

"What's the matter, haven't you thought about it?"

Zhao Jun turned his head and asked him, doesn't he seem like someone who hasn't thought about it?

Lu Jing came back to his senses, it was rare for someone to be so caring, he could talk about the planning of the school.

"My lord, please listen to me tell you in detail. First of all, I have contacted all the children in the vicinity."

"When I first came up with this idea, I went to various villages. The villagers also said that as long as there is a house and a husband, the tuition fee is not so expensive. They must be willing to let their children come."

"As for this master, there were originally several masters in these ten miles and eight townships, but they usually plant the land over and over again to teach the children, and there is not much time. This time we gathered the children together and found the nearest three Teachers take turns to attend classes, Shu Xiu will have more, and the county government will give some subsidies."

"Finally, there is the issue of books. Some time ago, I went to the state and county and found that there is a kind of paper and enlightenment books. They are not expensive and very practical. I can let the masters teach them some basic literacy."

"That's the initial idea. Now that the house is almost renovated, we can start classes soon."

What Lu Jing chattered was full of enthusiasm, as if he wanted to pour out all his thoughts.

Zhao Jun nodded, this idea is very mature, basically just waiting for the class to start.

"My lord, it's getting late, and the repairs here are almost done. Why don't you go back to the county office first. Lord Neishi and the others must have a rest first when they first came."

Kong, who had been waiting by the side, was listening to what they were saying, and interrupted cautiously to remind him.

"Oh, yes, yes, your lord is really negligent. Let's go back to the county government first and let your lord catch the wind."

Only then did Lu Jing remember that they had been standing here chatting for a long time, with a bit of annoyed expression on their faces.

Wang Deng, who was standing behind, couldn't wait for them to go back to the county government.

After delaying until now, the group finally started to rush back.

"My lord, why do I feel that this county magistrate is a bit confused, so I can't be an official."

Qingliu has been in the palace for many years, and she has long known that many officials are flattering.

But the county magistrate Lu gave her the first impression of being young, and the second impression of being slow.

"Do you think this Magistrate Lu is talented?"

The two walked in the front and discussed in a low voice.

"Although I just met him, but judging from his work and the evaluation of the people, he should be a very talented person."

Qingliu didn't deny it, she also felt that the County Magistrate Lu was very talented at such a young age.

"Then you should have thought, how could such a talented young talent with good growth be a small county magistrate in such a place."

"Oh, I see, he must have offended someone in Xianyang."

"Otherwise, he should be very popular with those aristocratic families in Xianyang."

"So you understand, but it's not bad for a person like him to stay in the county."

She glanced back.

"How to say?" Qingliu asked.

"Such a person can do practical things."
