"It's not easy." Zhou jinglang frowned slightly and said, "uncle, it's stipulated that the shuxiu of private schools is ten jin of grain a month. If you can't afford the shuxiu, you don't want anything."

Ji Lianzi was not happy when he heard this, "it's strange. Although this private school is run by my uncle, you are the steward of this private school. What kind of heart does he have? What kind of grain does he require?"

Over there, Xu Jingfeng said, "ten jin of grain a month is the same as the private school in the town. In this way, the children of poor families still have no schooling. What's the significance of the private school?"

They all nodded and were very dissatisfied with Uncle Zhou's ten catties of grain per month.

Zhou jinglang sighed and said, "this is a bundle of ten kilos of grain per month. My uncle said that I share it equally with him."

"Ah?" Everyone at the table was surprised.

Wei Lingzhi said: "why does Zhou Lizheng have to divide half of his training?"

"Uncle said that their family can't spend money on private schools." Zhou jinglang depressed said.

Ji Lianzi patted the table and said coldly, "how much does it cost to run a private school? Let's settle it for uncle once! What I said at the beginning was that we should run our own private school. As long as Uncle Li Zheng agrees, I can't let uncle take part in it! "

"Didn't the third grandfather say that he supported my uncle to run a private school? How to do the private school? My grandfather took the money? " On Wednesday, you asked.

Zhou jinglang replied, "uncle, I didn't let my third uncle get involved in the private school, so I'm happy not to get involved."

"Ha ha, it's the abacus that uncle is fighting!" Ji Lianzi said with a sneer, "the uncle who runs a private school has to take part in the business of wine making. He's very happy. Do you want to make a fortune with us?"

Zhou jinglang thought about it and said, "lotus seed, I'll tell my uncle that we don't have to pay for the cost of running a private school

"No, I'll say it!" Ji Lianzi said, "if the villain asks me to do it, don't conflict with uncle! Anyway, I have a bad reputation now, and I'm not afraid of another one! "

Xu Jingfeng said: "I also think it's better for Lianzi to come forward and tell Zhou Lizheng about this matter. Jinglang may not be able to tell Zhou Lizheng about it."

People call it.

Zhou jinglang blushed and lowered his head to drink tea.

Ah, he's really miserable. His daughter-in-law is the first to do everything.

Ji Lianzi put down the tea bowl, took the pen and paper, and calculated the account on the table.

The private school run by Uncle Zhou is in the south of the village. The house is the granary of the village. It has been abandoned for many years.

The granary was very big. Uncle Zhou had four windows chiseled on the west wall. I didn't know where to get the old windows, which were worn out and pasted the window paper again.

Sir's desk and chair are old, but the students' desks are all new, though the workmanship is very rough.

There are 30 sets of desk mats, which fill the room and look neat.

According to Ji Lianzi's calculation, 30 sets of tables and stools, one set of silver for each, is three liang of silver in total.

He chiseled four windows, and according to one coin for each window, plus his desk and stool, the total amount was five coins.

After all, the private school cost three hundred and twenty-five yuan.

Ji Lianzi rented uncle Zhou's house in the private school. According to the rent of two silver a month, it was twenty-four silver a year.

It's five hundred twenty-nine in all.

Ji Lianzi finished, put down his brush and said, "come on, give uncle six liang of silver. This private school belongs to our family!"

A table of people nodded one after another, Ji Lianzi raised her eyes and saw that Wednesday GUI was nodding too. Her eyes glared and said: "three expensive! What are you doing here? No more work in the workshop

"Ah! I'll go right away! " On Wednesday, GUI blushed and got up and ran away.

With a big smile, Ji Lianzi stood up and said, "jinglang, let's go to my uncle's house."

"Ah

Uncle Zhou is waiting for Zhou jinglang's letter at home. He is happy to calculate how much income the private school has every month, and how much income Ji Lianzi's liquor making business has since he became a shareholder.

Zhou's eldest son, Zhou Zhengchun, accompanied by his eldest grandson, Zhou Feng, also had a small abacus in his stomach, which made a loud noise.

The grandparents and grandchildren were waiting for tea, and soon they heard Ji Lianzi calling outside.

Three people a joy, good things come!

Zhou Feng stood up and ran out, "I'll open the door!"

When Ji Lianzi and Zhou jinglang entered the door, they both had a smile on their faces and had a chat with Zhou Feng.

Zhou Feng takes Ji Lianzi and Zhou jinglang into the hall. As soon as Ji Lianzi sees uncle Zhou sitting in the main seat, he smiles and says, "uncle, we've come to send you money!"

"Oh? What silver will you give me? " Uncle Zhou also said with a smile.

"Money for private schools and money for renting houses!" Ji Lianzi took Zhou jinglang and sat down with a smile.

"Well?" The smile on Uncle Zhou's face stagnated and he said with a smile, "what's the money for renting a house? What do you mean? "

The smiles on Zhou Zhengchun's and Zhou Feng's faces also froze, and they had a bad premonition.

"Although the private school was set up by magistrate Lin, the money for the private school can't be taken by my uncle." Ji Lianzi said with a smile, "the private school is run by our family, and the money should be taken by our family."

Uncle Zhou listened to Ji Lianzi's words, slowly lowered his face and said, "Ji Lianzi, what do you mean?"

"What I mean is very clear, uncle." Ji Lianzi said, "we'll pay for the private school. We'll rent the house for my uncle. We'll give him two dollars a month. I've calculated that the tables and stools used in private schools, the windows, and the rent for one year will be fifty-nine yuan. I'll give you a round number and give you six Liang silver! "

With that, Ji Lianzi took out six liang of silver, stood up, walked over, put it on the tea table beside uncle Zhou, and then went back to sit down.

Zhou jinglang looked at Uncle Zhou with a smile on his face and said, "I'm worried about running this private school. The extra money will be our uncle Xie's

"Pa!" Uncle Zhou stared at Ji Lianzi with a gloomy face, patted the coffee table and said in a deep voice, "Ji Lianzi! Do you mean the private school in the village has nothing to do with my family? "

"Naturally, it doesn't matter." Ji Lianzi blinked his eyes and said, "that private school was originally my family's business. Let me tell you, because you are Li Zheng! I didn't say to let uncle do it earlier. "

"But my family has already done it!" Uncle Zhou said, "it's still Lord Lin's official document that orders me to do this in my office!"

"Yes, that's right. It's from Lord Lin." Ji Lianzi nodded, "but the official document is to let uncle run a private school, not to let uncle run a private school! Jinglang is the manager of the private school. The private school should be decided by jinglang. How can it be decided by uncle? What's the difference between this private school and the one in the town? Poor people still can't afford to go to school! "
