"Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate"

"The sun and the moon are shining, and the sun and the moon are shining"

In a corner of Bahe City, the immature children's voices echo in a courtyard, this is the newly built Mengxue (Mengguan) in Bahe City, and the children who study are all residents of Bahe City, ranging in age from four to seven or eight years old, and some people are even more than nine years old.

The residents of Bahe City are all family members of the soldiers of the Hulin Army and the Bazhou Water Army, so this Mengxue is actually used as a welfare benefit for the soldiers, and the main purpose is to let the children know and write the most common words, and be able to know the simple addition and subtraction algorithms.

There is no tuition fee for admission to Mongolian school, all expenses are borne by Bazhou Thorn Shi Yuwen Wenwen, and the children who enter the school also have benefits, each person has a large cooking cake at noon and afternoon after school.

After graduating from Mengxue, there is also a higher 'primary school', so that the children who are studying can learn more knowledge, at least they can roughly understand the notices of the government, understand the content of various contracts, and learn to count and abacus, and be able to perform common account calculations.

For example, how to make up for buying and selling things, how to convert common weights and measures, these are the basic knowledge that needs to be used in life, and if you can graduate from 'primary school', you can already write ordinary letters on your behalf, or help people read the title deed.

The people have little hope of studying and becoming officials, but their children can learn these basic knowledge, which is of great help to the family, plus two meals a day and cooking cakes to eat, so every family sends their children to Mongolian school.

There is a big age gap between the young children, the youngest is less than four years old, the older one is six or seven years old, and some are nine years old.

The four-year-old and almost four-year-old are divided into small classes, between the ages of five and seven are in the middle class, those over seven years old and under the age of nine are in the large class, and the older ones are in the primary school for initiation.

Then there is a gentleman in each class who is responsible for teaching, and a curator with several miscellaneous servants is responsible for daily management.

At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, many families in Bahe City married their daughters-in-law and entered the door, and in a few years, the source of students in Mongolia will be guaranteed.

It was noon, close to the end of school, many parents had gathered outside Mengxue, and the young Zhang Yu was one of them, his little nephew is now studying in Mengxue, today Zhang Yu went to Bahe City to do business, and came to see by the way.

His sister-in-law worked in the Xiyang County Mansion, and the little nephew also lived in the mansion together, seeing that the little guy was about to be four years old, and Bahe City Mengxue also opened a class, the mansion transferred Zhang Yu's sister-in-law to the 'office' in Bahe City as a deputy steward, and by the way, let her son study in Mongolia.

"Xiao Yu'er, you can rest assured, there are everyone in the city to take care of you, and your sister-in-law and little nephew will definitely not be wronged!" A middle-aged man laughed, he was the leader of the Liu team of the water army, and he was also the old neighbor of Zhang Yu and his sister-in-law of the Xiangyang water army.

"With you and the old neighbors taking care of me, of course I'm relieved, but I'm afraid that Ah Kun will be naughty and cause trouble everywhere." Zhang Yu said that Ah Carp is his nephew's nickname, and now he is the age to start being naughty.

"Where is the crucian carp naughty, have you ever seen the naughty appearance of my rabbit cub, and it is also a loss to have a school, otherwise no one will watch at home when the farm is busy, and I don't know what will happen to the other rabbit cubs."

Many people around also nodded in agreement, they are either sailors or family members of the Tiger Forest Army, everyone said that it is a loss to have Mengxue as a place, and they can cage these rabbit cubs every day, otherwise the adults will have to bother to stare at people after the spring ploughing begins.

In fact, the city is full of their own people who know their roots, and children don't have to pick up after school, but because it has just started school, the curator still asks parents to pick up and drop off on time, and they can let go when the children are familiar.

"Team Liu, seeing that the fields are about to be plowed, have you all gotten started?" Zhang Yu asked, many people are smiling bitterly at this point, they were born in the navy, and they have been begging for a living on the water since the previous generation, and when it comes to water-based or rowing, their chests are snapping, but when it comes to farming in the fields, or planting mulberry and raising silkworms, their eyes are black.

"Where can I get it, at the end of last year, the field was granted, and everyone was happy and worried when they divided the field, and they couldn't drive oxen and plows, or plant mulberry and silkworms." Team Leader Liu smiled bitterly and said, "There are no farm tools, but thanks to the deputy city lord Tian, he has organized people to teach, and he will be able to make do with it after more than a month." ”

"When the autumn harvest comes, I have to come over and eat a few bowls of rice!" Zhang Yu said with a smile.

"That's nature, you can't come then!!" Team Leader Liu and everyone laughed.

The soldiers of the navy are begging for a living on the water, and the fields are naturally not, so the farm work has not been touched at all, last year the Zhou army used troops in the south of the Yangtze River, and many people made military achievements to meet the standards of granting fields, and obtained the coveted land, followed by the trouble of how to farm.

Zhang Yu is Yuwenwen's personal servant, so he naturally knows that Lord Lang has noticed this problem, so while organizing manpower and material resources to help the soldiers open up the wasteland, the Hulin Army also assigned manpower and farm tools to help the soldiers of the Navy to open up the wasteland and cultivate the fields.

The Bazhou Navy is divided into two parts, one is the Xiangyang Navy that moved over to settle down, and the other is the original Navy Army, whether it is over there, there is actually no difference between the fishermen and the fishermen on weekdays, not that they don't want to farm, but they really don't have land for them to plant.

There are soldiers who are in distress and do not even have a decent house, and the family huddles in a leaky wooden house to live, and even more sloppy even takes the boat as their home.

It wasn't until Yu Wenwen took office that he rectified the state soldiers, and put the Lu clan in Bahe City into a pot, that the reorganized sailor soldiers had a decent house to live in, and now there are many people who have been awarded land with their military exploits.

After getting the title deed, the soldiers were much more settled, because with the land, there was food, and even if they were unfortunately killed, then their families could have a settlement, so everyone was grateful to Shi Yuwen Wen.

In addition, there are boats, the big lake in the northeast of Bahe City is rich in aquatic products, and there can be a lot of harvest when farmers go to cast nets to fish, and even some people have made a lot of money by opening ponds to raise fish.

With the big patron of the Tiger Forest Army, there is no need to worry about the fish and nowhere to sell, and the soldiers of the Navy are ambitious, and they must rely on their own hard work to create a happy life for their families.

The bell rang, the parents who were waiting outside the gate were refreshed, and after a while, the school was boiling, and the children who had been 'locked up' all morning finally came out of the cage and rushed out one by one with their cooking cakes.

Regardless of size, each child wears clothes and pants made of coarse cloth, the style is uniform and slightly larger, each person wears cloth shoes and carries a cloth bag on his shoulder, this outfit is the characteristic of Mongolian school in Bahe City, and the children who enter the school are given two sets for free each, which is said to be what 'school uniform'.

"Uncle! Uncle Liu! A little child shouted milkily, holding a few bites of cooking cake in his hand, leaving a few friends and running towards Zhang Yu.

"Ah Carp, did you listen to Mr. today?" Zhang Yu touched the little guy's head and asked, and Team Leader Liu on the side also asked a young man about nine years old, but his tone was much more stern.

"Uncle, Ah Carp was not beaten by Mr. today!" The little guy said proudly, he raised his head to look at Zhang Yu, his eyes were full of pride, Zhang Yu smiled bitterly when he heard this, nodded with a wry smile, asked the little guy to wave goodbye to Team Leader Liu, and then took his hand and left slowly.

"Uncle, where is A-Niang?"

"A-Niang is busy in the yard, and I'll have to talk to A-Niang about the things in Mengxue when I go back later."

"Uncle, A-Niang said that if A-Carp studies hard, when she recognizes a lot of words, Aya will go home, right?"

"Huh? Ah yes," Zhang Yu was stunned for a moment and then said, seeing the little guy intently nibbling on the cooking cake, he looked up at the sky and quietly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "When Ah Kui recognizes many words, Aya will go home." ”……

On the northern outskirts of Xiyang City, a large manor is located on the south bank of the lake, which was originally a wasteland full of reeds, and since the end of last year, it has been the property of Xiyang County Gong and Bazhou Thorn Shi Yuwen Wenwen, and those who enter without permission can go to the state prison for free for three days.

It's not far from the city, but because the water rises every year during the rainy season, the land along the lake is often flooded, and large areas of wasteland are uncultivated, but since the drainage ditch was built, the lake has not been ravaged by heavy rains last year, and the lakeside land has become a hot commodity.

It's not that no one has ever hit the idea of lakeside land, and he has to start first to make a fait accompli for the forced reclamation of wasteland, but the newly appointed assassin Shi Yuwen Wenwen is not good at stubble, and he has already found out the land situation around Xiyang City clearly, so the unreclaimed land that he did not reclaim when he took office, and anyone who reclaimed it without permission after this is all invalid.

For many people's temptations, Yuwen envoy Jun is one sentence: reclaim wasteland? The reclamation of wasteland must also be carried out in accordance with the basic law of the land!

So at the end of the year, when the land was granted, those flooded places in the past have now become sought-after goods, and the Yuwen envoy, who has always been modest, was no longer polite, and directly rowed hundreds of hectares of lakeside land, and after opening up the wasteland, it was used as his own land, of course, the hectare at this time was much smaller than the hectare in later generations.

Yuwen Wen, the prince of Xiyang County, has a fief in Xiyang County, Bazhou, and is the official of his parents in this state, so there is no difference between Bazhou and his own family, but since Yuwenwen took office, a number of measures have benefited the people of Bazhou, so everyone has no opinion on Yuwenwen's land zoning.

After all, this was originally a wasteland, if it weren't for Yuwenwen to find a way to organize manpower and material resources to build water conservancy, no one would think about reclaiming the lakeside land, and many of the ripe fields confiscated when he pacified Tian Yuansheng's rebellion before, Yuwenwen distributed them to the poor state soldiers and the people of Xiyang, and now as long as the behavior of the wasteland is even more unquestionable.

A carriage drove on the newly paved gravel road, surrounded by guards, towards the core of the manor, Yu Wenwen sat in the carriage, looking out through the window, he looked at the wasteland being reclaimed on both sides of the road with great satisfaction.

"Lord Lang, are these fields going to be rotated with rice and wheat this year?" Yuwen fifteen asked excitedly, today the Hulin Army is resting, he accompanied the Lang lord Yuwen Wen to inspect the new manor, and looked at the fields in the mansion is naturally happy.

"It is the rice field that requires the rotation of rice and wheat, and the other fields need to be planted with other things, so naturally it cannot be rotated." Yu Wenwen replied that he was in a good mood today, so he talked more.

"Do you want to grow eucommia?"

"There are a lot of eucommia ulmoides over there, and there is enough land for them to use at present, so the first thing to plant in the manor is grapes." Yu Wenwen yawned, the fierce battle with his wife last night was very hard, so his sleep was slightly insufficient.

"Grapes? Can grapes be grown in this place? ”

"Or what do you think is grown in the backyard?" Yu Wenwen asked rhetorically.

"To plant so many hectares of grapes, does Lord Lang want to make wine? It seems that the wine produced on the right side of Longyou is delicious. ”

"Who knows, maybe the wine produced in Xiyang will be a big seller!"

While speaking, the carriage had already entered the manor, and the sound of Lang reading aloud could be faintly heard somewhere in the manor, Yuwenwen got out of the car, and under the leadership of Li Sanjiu, the housekeeper who rushed to hear the news, came to a courtyard.

Yu Wenwen undoubtedly incarnated as the head teacher again, and gently walked into the courtyard to a room, looking in through the window, only to see more than 30 young children studying, their average age is about six years old, there are boys and girls.

"Refers to the salary repair, Yongsui Jishao"

"Moment step leading, pitching the corridor temple"?

The children followed Mr. in a uniform manner to read the thousand-character text, seeing that they were all attentive, Yu Wenwen couldn't help but nodded, these boys and girls were orphans and orphans he adopted one after another after coming to Anlu.

Their parents have long since died, some are holding the remains of their parents on the side of the road and crying, and some are lying in the corner and dying, Yu Wenwen brought all the orphans and orphans who could be adopted back to the house.

Those who could be saved later lived in the house, and supported themselves as servants of the Duke of Xiyang County, among which those who were healthy, intelligent and studious were selected as training objects, and after enlightenment, they were taught by Yu Wenwen himself.

It has been two years since then, and the orphans and orphans who were only three or four years old at the time are already five or six years old, which is the age of studying, and Yuwenwen's requirements for these orphans and orphans are stricter than ordinary Mengxue.

They are well fed and clothed, and they can be taken care of when they are sick, but they are not treasures to be provided, and they have to do what they can on weekdays, such as cleaning and wiping down furniture.

But the most important thing is to read and learn words, because this is related to Yu Wenwen's next plan, he just stood outside and listened to the sound of reading until the bell rang for the end of class.

Li Sanjiu saw Yuwen 15 wink, then walked to the door with a dry cough and bowed to the teacher who was teaching, and the other party returned the salute and packed up the bookcase and walked out of the classroom.

An older boy saw Yu Wenwen appear at the door, and then stood up and shouted "stand up", the child stood up quickly when he heard the words, his body stood up straight, and saw Yu Wenwen walk behind the bookcase, under the leadership of the boy, he bowed respectfully and shouted in unison: "Lord Lang!" ”

Everyone wore uniform clothing, just like the students of Limengxue in Bahe City, both men and women were in good spirits, and there was no look of confusion or fear at all.

"Today, Lord Lang came to assess everyone's calculations, are you ready?" Li Sanjiu asked on the side, seeing that the boy replied yes, Yu Wenwen nodded and then looked at the children in front of him.

"Sit down!"

The children sat down in unison when they heard this, and Yu Wenwen then said, "Student number thirty-seven!" ”

"Yes!" A boy stood up and replied.

"How much do you get for the multiplication formula?"

"Twenty-one for thirty-seven!"

"How much does Seventy-Nine get?"

"Seventy-nine gets sixty-three!" (To be continued.) )
