After Zhong Hao returned to Jingqiang Village, he looked through the imperial palace newspaper copied by Hedong Shuaisi, and saw that there was indeed news of Lingnan Nong Zhigao's rebellion. 【】

Di Bao wrote: At the beginning of April, the barbarian Nong thief Zhi of Guangyuan Prefecture raised the banner and rebelled, led his troops down the Yujiang River to the east, and broke through the Hengshanzhai fortress on the east bank of the Youjiang River, and Zhang Yuexin, Gao Shi'an, Wu Xiang and other court generals were martyred. The imperial court was greatly shocked by Nong Zhigao's rebellion, and strictly ordered Jiang Kai to lead troops to encircle and suppress it under the jurisdiction of Guangnan West Road.

Zhong Hao knew that the development of the matter was far from over, and there would be more bad news coming soon, and the impact of Nong Zhigao's rebellion was far more than that. However, although Zhong Hao knew the development of the matter, he was soft-spoken and far away from Lingnan, and there was nothing he could do to stop the deterioration of the matter, so he could only sit and watch the development of the matter.

………………

The affairs of Lingnan are too far away, Zhong Hao can't do anything, he feels that it is serious to be busy with the things in his village first.

The school in Jingqiang Village has been open for a year now, and today is the day of the graduation assessment of the first batch of students in Jingqiang Village.

Zhong Hao, the head of the Jingqiang Village School, in addition to the school when the school was first built, often came to the school to teach students arithmetic, and also took the students to study on the bank of the Guye River in the summer, and caught fish for a while, but later because there were too many things, he was too busy, and he did not come to the school a few times.

On weekdays, this school in Jingqiang Village is basically taught and managed by Ke Yao.

Zhong Hao personally taught the children arithmetic at first, but later after Zhong Hao taught some basic arithmetic to Ke Yao, he stopped coming, and Ke Yao has been teaching this arithmetic since then.

As for the professor of reading and literacy, it was taught by Ke Yao and an old clerk of the Pingxi Army. This old clerk was specially arranged for Zhong Hao because he was afraid that Ke Yao was too busy and tired.

Zhong Hao does not have high requirements for these children who take classes in Jingqiang Village, they can write and calculate, and Jingqiang Village has no conditions to train these children to become Jinshi or Confucian.

Now that a year has passed, Zhong Hao feels that those older children can graduate if they pass the exam.

Zhong Hao plans to arrange the students who pass the assessment to be assigned to the battalions of the Pingxi Army and the Pingrong Army, and let them be responsible for the clerical work in each battalion. Since they go to work, they will naturally be paid, so the children are very enthusiastic about this assessment.

Children under the age of ten in the Jingqiang Village School are temporarily unable to learn calligraphy.

Because there is a saying that "bones are soft and easy to hurt", Zhong Hao let the students of Jingqiang Village School be more than ten years old before they can learn words.

Since they have not learned to write, they who can write and can write will naturally not meet the requirements, and they will not be able to participate in this assessment. Of course, for those children under the age of ten, it is not realistic for them to go to the Pingxi Army and the Pingrong Army to work as a tutor. A hair hasn't grown yet, uh...... It should be a child who has not yet begun to grow, and when he goes to the barracks, he will inevitably be ignored by those soldiers.

Zhong Hao's assessment today is mainly for those boys who entered school at the age of eleven or twelve. As for the girls, this assessment is exempted, and their families let them read some books, mainly so that they can read braille and understand some things. If you get married in the future, maybe you can still manage the housekeeper in your in-law's house or something.

Now that they have been in the school for a year, these children are twelve or thirteen years old. The children of the poor are in charge of the house early, and it is okay to go to the team to work as a sticker.

Although Zhong Hao knew that these hairy boys would inevitably be despised by those soldiers at first, Zhong Hao would give them some support, and the stickers of these battalions could directly report to themselves when they had something, hoping that they could stand up, and these children would be their descendants in the future.

Zhong Hao's questions about the content of this graduation assessment are relatively simple questions.

First of all, the literacy skills are tested.

Zhong Hao found a book called "Wrong Chopping Cui Ning" that he found when he was shopping in Bingzhou and Fu Ruozhu during the New Year, and asked these students to read two pages each.

Then, each person writes 20 sentences of "Thousand Character Essay", and if there are no typos, even if they pass the assessment of writing this level.

After the reading and writing exam, they naturally have to rely on their arithmetic ability, after all, these students will have to go to various camps to do things like bookkeeping in the future.

Zhong Hao came up with a few relatively simple arithmetic problems, and there are a few of the four operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and if you can do it, you will pass the assessment.

The results of the final assessment were quite satisfactory to Zhong Hao. Twelve of the seventeen students who took the exam passed all of them.

Although Zhong Hao's exam content is not difficult, for these students who have only studied for one year, it is not bad that so many people can pass, which shows that they still work hard in the school on weekdays.

Zhong Hao personally awarded the twelve students with graduation certificates and a bonus of two yuan each. This graduation certificate was naturally invented by Zhong Hao, and a piece of cardboard cover was inlaid with a cut Xue Tao note, and Xue Tao's note was written with the name of the qualified assessment and the comments of the mountain chief Zhong Hao.

This is to enhance the students' sense of honor and increase the weight of the assessment. Let the remaining students see that there are not only honors but also bonuses to be won after passing the assessment, which stimulates their enthusiasm for learning.

Zhong Hao's effect is very good, these students who have passed the assessment attach great importance to this graduation certificate, and after taking it from Zhong Hao, they all solemnly put it away.

These students will be Zhong Hao's protégés in the future, and after they arrive at the battalions, they will also greatly strengthen Zhong Hao's control over the Pingxi Army and the Pingrong Army, and Zhong Hao will naturally cultivate them carefully.

Next, they have to follow Zhong Hao to familiarize themselves with the various rules and regulations of the Great Song Dynasty, and also learn the writing of various documents and the recording methods of account books, etc., which are some of the skills they must have in the future.

Subsequently, the twelve students will also receive some military training. Although the Pingxi Army and the Pingrong Army are van troops, they are in the march, and they inevitably have to march and fight. Although there are not many opportunities for the van army to go to the front line, the matter of transporting heavy baggage is still often encountered, and the physical fitness is too poor, and traveling with the army is afraid that it will be delayed.

Among these twelve students, after a period of training, Zhong Hao will select four older and stronger ones to go to the middle camp of the Pingxi Army and the combat barracks of the Pingrong Army to serve as the chief and deputy assistants. After all, these two battalions are combat battalions, and the physical fitness requirements for the students who do this post are also higher, because they often have to go to battle with the army.

As for the other eight students, Zhong Hao would arrange them to serve as assistants in the remaining eight battalions of the Pingxi Army and the Pingrong Army.

Going to the barracks to work as a sticker must be more tiring and risky, but its salary is also twice that of other battalion stickers, because these students are training very hard and are actively striving to enter the barracks as a sticker.

These students also know that although it is more risky and tiring to work as a tutor in the barracks, the salary is high and the chances of getting ahead are greater. Naturally, these poor children of the army should seize the opportunity and work hard.

If these students do a good job as a sticker, Zhong Hao will try his best to promote them, and these students will be his descendants in the future. In the future, when they grow up, Zhong Hao also plans to choose from these students as the marching Sima of the Pingxi Army and the Pingrong Army.

Of course, now the marching Sima of the Pingxi Army and the Pingrong Army, Zhong Hao has to invite another Gao Ming. After all, the Sima of the First Army, for the time being, is not something that these students who are still hairy boys can do.
