Wei and Jin Cooks

   Chapter 230 School (Supplement 1)

   Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan brought a batch of iron blocks and farm implements back to the county office, just as the father and daughter of Dahua were also sent to the county office.

   Zhao Hanzhang liked this decisive girl very much and asked her, "I'm short of an errand man by my side, would you like to stay by my side?"

  Dahua immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "My servant is willing."

   Zhao Hanzhang smiled, "I don't want you to be a slave, but a subordinate."

"The county government has people making quilts and clothes, as well as kneading hay and making shoes. Some people in the city take care of it, but no one in the countryside can take over." Zhao Hanzhang said: "Before, the officials in the yamen were in charge, but because of They are men, they are not careful enough, or they act rudely, and the finished product is not good, you are a girl who can endure hardship, so I want you to take care of this."

  Dahua didn't expect that she would become an official. She was so nervous that her hands and feet became numb, and she stammered: "Yes, but I can't read."

   Zhao Hanzhang said: "I know, so you have to set aside half a day to study every day."

   Zhao Hanzhang led Dahua directly to the school.

   Zhao Cheng was in class, and when he saw her, he turned his eyes away from her.

   Zhao Hanzhang was not annoyed either, he stood outside the window obediently with Dahua, and led Dahua forward after Zhao Cheng finished a lesson.

   "Uncle has worked hard." Zhao Hanzhang served tea to Zhao Cheng himself.

   "There is nothing without going to the Three Treasures Hall, tell me, what are you doing here?"

   Zhao Hanzhang smiled ingratiatingly, "Uncle has misunderstood me, am I that kind of person?"

   Zhao Cheng looked at her quietly.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and beckoned Dahua to step forward, "I'm here to send you a student, this is called Dahua, and she became an official in my yamen. She doesn't know how to read, so I want to ask my uncle to teach her a few words. , just recognize some more numbers."

   Zhao Cheng frowned, "Why do you send everyone to me? There are already many subordinate officers and military positions in the army, and now there are even female subordinate officers?"

   "Uncle, a sheep is a sheep, a flock of sheep is also a sheep, but an extra sheep is added to the flock, it doesn't make much difference."

   Zhao Cheng angrily said, "You said there is no difference, there is no difference? Others have been studying for nearly two months, and she just came. Can the class be the same as others?"

  Dahua lowered his head nervously, his fists clenched tightly, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Sir, I don't need any special instruction, I will catch up."

   Zhao Cheng looked at her, and Da Hua swallowed and said, "I, I mean, I don't have to start from scratch. I will learn what you teach them, and I will make up for the missing courses myself."

   Seeing Zhao Cheng's face softened and his attitude softened, Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said, "Uncle, please help me and accept one more student."

   Zhao Cheng asked: "You have a lot of people you can use. I don't believe you don't know. Your uncle Ming has ordered that all the children of the clan who want to join the world can follow you. Why did you choose an illiterate woman?"

   Zhao Hanzhang said: "The brothers are naturally excellent, but what Dahua wants to do, they can't do well."

"In Xiajiao Village, although she is a girl, she can manage a team of people to dig canals alone. Most of the people there are men, and no one dares to accept her." She said: "Now I am in a shortage of people. So I plan to use all the women and children in the countryside."

"They may not be as strong as adult men, but they are not weaker than men in other tasks, or even better than them. The division of labor is well done, and the result is twice the result with half the effort. Dahua is the thread that I want to divide the labor. If you teach her well, the lines below will not be chaotic."

   "Can't Zhao Kuan and the others?" Zhao Cheng said: "In terms of hardship, they have traveled abroad for many years, what hardship have they not suffered? You don't need them to worry about not being able to suffer."

   Zhao Hanzhang knew that this was the child of the Zhao family that she had never used, which made Zhao Cheng dissatisfied.

   Zhao Hanzhang thought about it and explained: "Uncle, Brother Kuan and the others can endure hardship, but this is not something that can be done by enduring hardship. Most of the reason why I choose Dahua is because she is a woman."

   "Brother Kuan, they are brilliant, they are blades, and they should be used in better places."

"for example?"

"The most suitable place for them now is this school," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Uncle, this school is not only to teach children to read and write, but also to teach them the truth. These people will grow up for my use, they The ideas received all come from the Zhao family."

"Now, nearly half of the subordinates in the yamen, the corps chiefs, chiefs, and team leaders in the army and my troupe are all studying with the children of the Zhao family. Do you know what this means?" Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile. : "This means that their consciousness is instilled by our Zhao family, and they will naturally prefer Zhao family, even uncles."

Zhao Cheng stared at Zhao Hanzhang in a stunned manner, and became annoyed after he reacted, "What do you mean? What have you made of preaching and educating people? Teaching and educating people is to let students learn to think for themselves, not to be your shadow... …”

   Zhao Hanzhang was kicked out of the school in embarrassment, but Dahua stayed.

  Dahua was very in awe of the gentleman who dared to drive away the magistrate, and stood by with his neck shrunk, not daring to speak.

   Zhao Cheng walked around the place angrily for two laps. He finally knew why Chang Ning had to come to two big classes every ten days, and even Ji Yuan, who was in Cai's class, would come to the school from time to time to give lectures. It turned out that this was the idea.

   He only felt ashamed that the two of them praised Zhao Hanzhang every time they were in class, but now, what else did he not understand?

  Zhao Cheng angrily turned around twice, saw the big flower, waved his hand and said, "Go down and prepare, first go get your pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and come to class tomorrow."

  Dahua responded happily.

Zhao Cheng thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure it out. He felt that this was contrary to his educational philosophy, so he ran back to Wubao angrily and found Zhao Ming and complained, "I don't know where she came from, but it was calculated early in the morning. Let me train her confidants."

   Zhao Ming calmly poured him a glass of wine, and by the way, poured himself a glass.

   Zhao Cheng couldn't help frowning when he saw that he was neither sad nor happy, "You already knew?"

   Zhao Ming nodded.

   Zhao Cheng held back his anger and asked, "Then why didn't you tell me?"

   Zhao Ming took a sip of wine and said, "Do you know how much it costs to support a child in the clan to study?"

   Zhao Cheng frowned, "Huh?"

   Zhao Ming said: "For example, Zhao Kuan, he is already thrifty, and he can endure hardships. He runs outside with you every year, but he needs money for food, clothing, housing, and transportation, not to mention the pen, ink, paper, inkstone and books he needs to read."

   "An ordinary enlightenment book can be sold for a hundred cents outside."

   Zhao Cheng pursed his lips, "The books Zhao Kuan used were all used by their father and brother, and they didn't spend any money."

"What about the collections of works that he buys every year, and some books that he bought? Those were also used by their father and brother?" Zhao Ming said, "Every year he spends no less than 50,000 yuan on books, not to mention pen and paper. Consumables, especially paper and ink, have you calculated how much you spend each year?"

   Zhao Cheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother, I'm talking to you about the Hanzhang Academy."

See you tomorrow
