The late Ming Dynasty in the living room

Chapter 97 Queen Zhang’s Harvest
Fang Yu immediately entrusted the matter to Luo Shangwen and asked him to go to Yizhou to inform Sun Chuanting.

When she returned home in the evening, Axiu was in high spirits.

Teacher Pan asked her: "Little Axiu, what did you do today? Why are you so happy?"

Axiu said excitedly: "We are riding horses by the river!"

After hearing this, Teacher Pan immediately became worried. She asked Fang Yu, "You didn't ride very far, did you?"

What Teacher Pan meant by "far away" was beyond the map.

Only then did Fang Yu realize that the river bend and village he went to today were probably off the map.

In Teacher Pan’s view, places other than Laishui County are full of dangers, and Fang Yu’s life is “very fragile,” so he should try not to go out if he can.

Fang Yu is also afraid of death. He has repeatedly expressed: Someone on our side firmly supports Teacher Pan’s views!
Fang Yu thought in his mind, "I'm a little careless," but he comforted Teacher Pan and said, "No, no, I just slipped by that section of the river twice, and I definitely didn't go beyond Teacher Pan's realm, and there were more than 2000 officers and soldiers nearby. Being a security guard gives you a sense of security."

In order to prevent Axiu from "talking nonsense", Fang Yu rushed her to do her homework.

Then I told Teacher Pan in detail about the discovery of someone carrying water in the river bed and the nearby ditch being blocked.

Teacher Pan also felt a little scared after hearing this.

She said with emotion: "Fortunately you discovered it early, otherwise I would have been killed."

Fang Yuxin said: "Actually, you have been obsessed with killing evil for a long time..."

Of the six beggars who were flicked away by fingers in the brick kiln, three flew out and fell onto the pile of green bricks. They were seriously injured and died within two days.

Teacher Pan is a very kind person, even if those people are evil beggars or little NPCs, she may still feel uneasy.

So Fang Yu told her that those beggars are still working in the brick kiln.

Just as Fang Yu thought, Teacher Pan solemnly said: "The farmers are only thinking about carrying water to save the crops. It is not enough to just warn them. We need to find more officers and soldiers to guard both sides of the river."

After saying this, the two discussed the opening of school tomorrow.

In fact, Fang Yu and Teacher Pan were more concerned about school or new education than Sun Chuanting's war preparations.

Fang Yu gave him money and food, and soon he was able to provide him with the best matchlock gun in the world.

This kind of support is already at the level of a nanny, and there is really no need to care too much.

Moreover, as an old figure, Sun Chuanting was only responsible for bulldozing the slaves and bandits.

To make a nation strong again from its dying days and continue to maintain its glory, it has to rely on the New City Camp.

The experimental primary school in the camp, the cultural study class for senior cadres, the Ming Dynasty elite talent class (under preparation)... and even the new lifestyle in the camp (such as time management) are all crucial.

Fang Yu took out a roster and introduced: "Tomorrow there will be four classes in the school, including three boys' classes and one girls' class. Most of the students are the children of officials and craftsmen in the camp.

There are also several people from the county who are officials' sons, such as the youngest son of the county magistrate Min Wenggong, a distant nephew of the county magistrate, and the chief clerk..."

Teacher Pan asked: "Why is there only one class for girls? Is it because there are few people or because they are unwilling to come?" Fang Yu explained: "These official craftsmen are held in the hands of the government and are not allowed to go out to work. Four months of whole grains, how can this little food be enough?
So they could only save the boys at home first... In addition, according to Lao Liu, many of them had the behavior of drowning female infants, and very few girls from Guanjiang's family could grow up safely. "

After hearing this, Teacher Pan felt very sad when he thought of the little girls in his class who were so pampered.

There are a total of 168 students on the roster. There are only 5 students in the girls' class regardless of age, ranging from 13 to 37 years old. (Including Axiu and Xiaoni)
还有131个男生，方愈把他们分成了三个大班：小儿班（5-7岁）、少儿班（8-11岁）、少年班（12-16岁）。

The remaining overage ones are actually qualified carpenters and blacksmiths.

They help in the workshop during the day, and in the evening they are assigned to attend night school for seniors.

Because he saw the slow progress of the previous "Cultural Study Class for Senior Cadres", Teacher Pan proposed that Pinyin should be introduced into preschool education.

Fang Yu nodded in agreement and said, "Then I will hold a small teacher training class tomorrow so that the scholars and students can learn Pinyin from me."

Teacher Pan reminded: "The lower class scholars are, the more stubborn and conservative they are. I'm afraid they may agree on the surface but not learn well in their hearts."

Fang Yu thought for a while and said: "This is simple. I will also give them homework and final exams. If anyone can't do it, then according to the old rules, they will be punished by going to the toilet."

"At first, Liu Ji only took out eight toilets and was very aggrieved. Now there are five more toilets, a total of thirteen toilets. Let's see who among them can bear it!"

Min Wen Gong and Sun Chuanting were both afraid of these trolls, but Fang Yu was not afraid of them.

How can they talk inside this iron wall?Let the security team block the door so that they can't escape even if they want to.

After talking to Teacher Pan, it was almost time for dinner.

Today's dinner was with Queen Zhang.

The two maids were already setting out the dishes downstairs, while Queen Zhang was still upstairs, sitting at a table writing.

The book used for writing was a thread-bound blue book, and Empress Zhang wrote a few delicate words on the cover: Orb Notes. (Queen Zhang’s nickname is Baozhu)

What is recorded in this orb notebook is what she saw, heard, and thought after arriving at the camp.

Although it had not been long since she arrived at the camp, this notebook had already filled up half of the book, which shows that she had "gained" a lot in these days.

For example, after watching Journey to the West in Building [-] yesterday, she wrote in her notebook: Baozhu saw with her own eyes that the Yin-Yang Universe Mirror of the Taoist Patriarch (Moral God) has now been owned by Empress Pan.

Moreover, she also recorded in detail in her book how to open the Yin-Yang Universe Mirror: press the big circle (start play button) for one breath, and the divine light will appear.Press the small circle on the right (forward key) twice.Press the big circle again and the illusion will appear. Note: No need to pause this time.

She also recorded in detail the content of her conversation with Pan Niangniang.

For example, Empress Pan once asked her: "How do you still maintain such good skin in your thirties? It looks smooth and thin, better than many little girls. Is there any secret recipe in the palace that has not been passed down from generation to generation?" ?”

Queen Zhang replied: "I am just like a plant in the world, but it only flourishes and dries up. I am not as high as Sister Pan, who can take the light of the sun and the moon and maintain her beauty for eternity."

Pan Niangniang sighed: "Oh, you are here again. Where have I taken the light of the sun and the moon? I take the brilliance (ash) of chalk every day."
