Shunzi watched Liu Ji holding the money bag and turning around on the bed, and suddenly he was no longer so envious of the soft rice Liu Ji had eaten.

It was just a hundred cents, and it was related to a man's dignity. I really couldn't imagine what kind of life his third brother lived on a daily basis.

But as long as he agreed.

Shunzi asked: "Third brother, when will it be convenient for you? The factory is in a hurry right now."

Liu Ji held his money bag, sat down cross-legged, and asked Shunzi how many students he had.

Shunzi replied: "We learn voluntarily. If you don't want to learn, don't force it. Those who want to learn only need to pay the five-literary tuition fee. So now there are 20 people. Third brother, you will be the master, and the tuition fees will be given to you."

In other words, the more people come to school, the more money Liu Ji can get.

Thinking of this, Liu Jida felt regretful, "The tuition fee is only five cents, how come there are still people who don't want to learn such a good thing?"

Shunzi was also helpless. That's what poverty is like. Not only are people poor, but their hearts are also poor.

But in the past, he must have been the poor one.

Shunzi said with admiration: "This idea was proposed by Manager Qin. She said that in the future, the business will get bigger and bigger, and we can no longer treat ourselves as blind. We need to set up a literacy class to teach everyone to read and learn some basic arithmetic." , I won’t be afraid of being cheated when I go out in the future.”

Liu Ji saw the admiring look in his eyes when he mentioned Qin Yao, and subconsciously wanted to give him a thumbs up, but an indescribable sense of pride and honor arose in his heart.

"Okay, let's use the money to do things. I'm going to prepare and we'll start classes the day after tomorrow." Liu Ji put the money bag away and waved to indicate that Shunzi could leave on his own.

Shunzi was afraid that he would not take it seriously, so he repeatedly asked: "Third brother, don't forget it!"

Liu Ji got an impatient "I know!" and then left.

The four Dalang brothers and sisters immediately ran into Dad's house and asked Liu Ji out of curiosity: "Dad, are you going to become a wife in the factory?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Liu Ji looked at the suspicious expressions of the four brothers and sisters, dusted off his clothes and pretended to be disapproving, "Your father, I am also a child after all, and I also taught you?"

The four brothers and sisters looked at each other, feeling that the father in front of them was a bit strange - he could actually do serious things!

Erlang reminded: "Dad, you can make money by yourself."

Liu Ji, who was lying on the bed with his arms and legs spread out, was startled when he heard this. He lowered his head and looked at the bulging clothes. Inside was a money bag containing one hundred coins.

He recalled the past and suddenly realized that if deception and abduction were not his skills, this seemed to be the first time he had made money based on his skills!
Liu Ji took a deep breath and sat up from the bed. He raised his eyes and met Qin Yao's eyes at the door.

She looked at him calmly, without any contempt or urging in her eyes, just like looking at a person.

Liu Ji admitted that it felt good and he was a little intoxicated.

"While it's still dark, I'll go to the fields to see how the watermelons are growing. You can get ready."

Qin Yao reminded him: "The people in the factory are all older. Teaching adults is different from teaching children. Adults have strong self-esteem. Don't teach too difficult things at the beginning. It's best to go step by step."

Liu Ji nodded heavily: "Yeah! I'll start preparing now!"

After watching Qin Yao go out with the sickle, Liu Ji immediately stopped the four boys and girls in front of him who wanted to follow him and run out to play.

"Sit down, let's discuss how to teach these people how to read."

Dalang and Siniang were fine, they thought this was quite interesting, and Siniang felt that she had a say - she was Jinhua's husband!

Erlang and Sanlang stood by the door, listening to Jinbao's call from the village, looking forward to seeing them.In the end, Liu Ji gave two copper coins alone, and then the two brothers reluctantly stayed.

A copper coin can no longer seduce Erlang, who holds the financial power of his brothers and sisters.

This new brain is very useful. Even though the four siblings are young, the suggestions and ideas they put forward are quite practical.

Siniang said: "We must encourage students and give them confidence. We must not curse or hit others."

Saburo said: "I like to learn what I like. Master Cheng likes to tell stories, and I like it."

Another Master Ding liked to tell them history, which was boring and they didn't want to hear it.

Dalang and Saburo have the same view. They suggest starting from the people around you and learning what they want to know and what they are interested in. Only in this way can you persevere and not give up halfway.

However, Erlang felt that the eldest brother was simply overly worried, "I've already paid the money, and here's five cents! You have to force yourself to learn if you don't want to, otherwise the money will be wasted."

Liu Ji thought it made sense, and suddenly he understood why the literacy class had to charge a symbolic five cents even though it was free of tuition.

With the sunk cost of five cents, I have to learn enough before I give up.

"Okay, you can go and play." Liu Ji waved his hand, indicating that the four brothers and sisters could leave.

He already had an idea, and now he wanted to figure out the content for the class tomorrow. Several children were chattering in his ears, which made him feel noisy.

Erlang made a face at his father and threw it away after use. He was the one he was talking about!
Unfortunately, just as he was about to go out excitedly, Qin Yao happened to come back from the field and drove the four brothers and sisters back home.

Qin Yao pointed at the starry sky, "What time is it? Hurry up and go to bed!"

All four shoulders of the brother and sister slumped, "Oh~"

Awang had prepared water. Qin Yao raised the corners of her mouth, put down the watermelon flowers she had picked from the melon field, and washed them.

Watermelons can bloom and bear fruit. So far, watermelon cultivation has been relatively successful.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for the factory literacy class to start.

Since workers are at work during the day, literacy classes are scheduled to start in the evening after work.

In summer, it gets dark late, so I have to attend one class a day for half an hour, and rush home in the remaining time, so that I can get there before dark.

The literacy class is a new thing. On the evening when the class started, 20 students showed up.

Liu Ji carried a wooden board and walked into the production workshop specially set aside for classes. When he raised his eyes, well, the whole village was watching!

His feet stumbled, and he narrowly escaped falling to pieces.

Qin Yao stood in the middle of the crowd with her children, her arms folded. She saw through someone's forced composure and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

Liu Ji swallowed secretly and walked seriously to the students who could be called uncle and aunt. He put down the wooden board in his hand, picked up a blackened fire stick, and wrote the word "Liu".

"This is Liu, the Liu of our Liujia Village, the Liu of Carpenter Liu, the Liu of me, Liu Ji, and the Liu of his Liu Daniu."

The first batch of registered students were all from Liujia Village. As soon as the word "Liu Ji" was pronounced, his uncle and aunt immediately became energetic.

The villagers of Liujia Village who were watching the excitement couldn't help but quiet down, listening to Liu Ji's story about how they came to Liujia Village.
