The Peach Blossom Luck of Rebirth

Chapter 489 The Courageous Beauty

"My lord! It's not an easy task to set up a school! Here, only dignitaries can receive court education, and ordinary women can't receive education at all. Besides, as the saying goes: women who have no talents are virtuous!"

Another Lu Guo minister said.

"My lord! I calculated it. It will cost a lot of money to buy looms and build schools! Although the treasury currently has surplus money!
But it is mainly used in construction and housing projects, and I can no longer have the financial resources to purchase looms and set up schools! ’ said the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

……

Everyone talked about each other, and the discussion was very intense.

After listening to everyone's narrations one by one, Gao Shuang finally said:

"Dear dears! We don't need to buy this loom! We can make full use of our master carpenters in Lu country to make it ourselves! Please look at it! This is a sketch of a new type of loom!"

Gao Shuang showed the sketch of the oblique loom that he and Mu Wanqing had drawn together last night, and all the civil and military ministers were amazed.

"Great! Great!" All the civil and military ministers applauded loudly.

One of the ministers in charge of engineering looked at it carefully and said, "My lord! I'll take this picture to Lu Mucai, the most famous carpenter in our country, and see if he can make it!"

"Okay!" Gao Shuang said to the Minister of Engineering because he was thirsty for talents, "You treat some master carpenters well. In addition, in terms of salary, you can double the salary, as long as you manufacture practical looms!"

"Thank you, Lord! I'll do it right away!" After the Minister of Engineering finished speaking, he carried out the blueprint as if he had found a treasure to carry out Gao Shuang's task.

Next, there is a specific discussion on running women's literacy classes.

"My lord! Our ancestors used to be slash-and-burn farmers. They only knew how to plan food in the soil, worship the gods, and pray for God's blessing! There is no unified writing at all!" Wen Yuhuaji said.

"That's right! In the State of Lu, only dignitaries can receive education, women are not allowed to receive education!" said another minister of the State of Lu.

"I don't agree!" A clear voice came from outside, and everyone saw a beautiful woman walking in.

Gao Shuang took a closer look, it was Mu Wanqing.

When she entered the hall, she saluted herself first, and shouted: "Long live the lord, long live, long live!"

"Wan'er! There's no need to be formal! If you have anything to say, just say it!" Gao Shuang said.

"Wan'er thanked the lord!" Mu Wanqing still politely performed the etiquette of the monarch and ministers. Afterwards, she said to the civil and military officials present:

"My lords! If women don't receive education, it will definitely affect the quality of the next generation's population! Just now I checked the population files of Lu State, and learned that the quality of Lu State's population is very poor, and illiterates account for [-]% of the total population.

However, women accounted for [-]% of the [-]% of the population. This is due to the lack of schools.

If we set up a school so that every woman in the country of Lu can be educated, the educated women will subtly and pre-educate the next generation!It will improve the population quality of Lu country as a whole! "

"Okay! Wan'er! Well said!" Gao Shuang couldn't help clapping his hands. Gao Shuang marveled at how farsighted Mu Wanqing was.

Mu Wanqing saluted Gao Shuang again, and said, "The lord of the country has praised me!"
