Chapter Seventy-Nine: Tent Elementary School
Shi Jin said: "Now we are all soldiers of the regimental training team, my brother can give orders directly if he has anything, and he will not frown." ”
"Recently, more than 5,000 old and weak women and children have come to Yuncheng to form ten homeless villages. Among the 5,000 people, 1,500 are children under the age of 14, and the children must learn culture when they are still young, and building a school is not something that can be completed overnight, but it is fast to set up a tent, and this task will be taught to the three of you, just like building a military camp, building a temporary school, can you complete the task? ”
"Guaranteed to get the job done." Threesome.
Chao Gai distributed fifty soldiers and asked Du Qian to distribute supplies. Shi Jin, Chen Da, and Yang Chun set off with their soldiers. More than 50 acres of land have been cleared out of a hill with green mountains and clear waters. This is the site of this tent primary school, although it is windy in winter and autumn, but the terrain is high and there is no need to worry about flooding, after all, the biggest risk in Yuncheng is the annual flood.
The site was almost leveled, and a hundred craftsmen were repairing the wood they had collected nearby, and 500 able-bodied women selected from among the displaced people were working together.
How to build a military camp is a necessary lesson, and Shi Jin, Chen Da, and Yang Chun know very well even though they have not been trained for a long time. First of all, the fence wall, because the school is full of primary school students, the body is weak, in order to prevent the infestation of wolves and insects in winter, the density of the fence must be built very densely, the height is two meters five. Trenching and piling are used to hold the fence in place with stones and soil, and then a diagonal pillar is made inside the fence every five meters to support it.
The classrooms were also built by craftsmen sawing the trees into various types of wood, then making a skeleton and covering it with canvas. There are front and rear windows on the canvas, so the light in the room is still okay, more than 1,500 people, 50 people in each classroom need 30 classrooms, and there are also dormitories, so there are still a lot of houses to build. It's just that such a house has poor warmth in winter and poor insulation in summer, so it can only be regarded as a temporary house, and it will be evacuated when the formal school is built.
The refugees had been in constant contact with people in quick clothes and military uniforms to help them these days, so they were not afraid. A 30-year-old woman also asked Shi Jin: "This military master, have you married a daughter-in-law?" ”
made Shi Jin blush, after all, Shi Jin was not yet twenty years old at this time, and his face was thin. A woman next to her smiled and said, "Do you think that this military master is good-looking, and you are worried about finding an aunt for your girl?" It's a pity that your girl is only twelve years old, haha. The woman working next to her burst into laughter.
Shi Jin still has the ability to coordinate management, Shi Jin is responsible for the fence, Chen Da is in charge of the classroom, and Yang Chun is in charge of the dormitory. Soldiers and craftsmen were responsible for the more technical work in key areas, while the 500 women were mainly responsible for chores.
At noon, because the food of the team and craftsmen led by Shi Jin was far better than that of the women who helped the work, in order to avoid being ugly, Shi Jin deliberately kept the team and the women one hundred and fifty meters away. To say that this Shandong woman is not small, and her strength with a big waist and a round waist is not much worse than that of a man. It's easy to work and cook. At noon, eat sorghum noodles and rice porridge. Although it is not abundant, it is better to be able to eat well than to starve to death at home. There are still a lot of good people in Yuncheng County, and someone came to deliver pickles at noon, and the three old ladies got more than 100 catties of pickles, pickles made of good cucumber strips, of course, pickles can't be eaten as rice, so 100 catties, even if it is 500 people, they have to eat for several days.
Yang Chun's eyes were good, and he pointed not far away and said, "How can I look at that old lady is quite familiar, I feel like I've seen it."
Shi Jin looked at it and said, "This is none other than Niu Gao's mother, Li Kui's mother, and Wang Jun's mother." Even Brother Chao Gai had to call the old godmother when he saw it. Let's go over and say hello. ”
Chen Da and Yang Chun said: "Yes, let's learn from other people's sons, and we should say hello when we see other people's old women." ”
Shi Jin, Yang Chun, and Chen Da came over and greeted the three old ladies together: "Three old godmothers, why did you come here." ”
"Oh, it turned out to be Shi Jin, you guys are building a school here. I have a lot of pickles at home, so I just used them to help everyone. Niu Gao Niang said.
Shi Jin tasted a cucumber strip and said, "It tastes so good, it's much more authentic than the pickled ones in our army." ”
Niu Gaoniang smiled: "This kid can really talk." ”
"Really, if you take out this pickle and sell it, it will definitely be a good price." Shi Jin said.
On the way, Niu Gaoniang said: "I said two old sisters, although our sons have good salaries, and we don't have to worry about food and clothing, but people have to do something in this life, and it's not a thing to be so idle all the time." ”
Li Kuiniang said: "Who says it's not, I raise so many sheep all day long, and it's boring to have so many chickens." ”
"When I was in Tokyo, I was used to being idle, so I got sick easily, so I needed to do something." Wang Jinniang said.
Niu Gao Niang said: "We can't do anything else, but making pickles is a first-class craft, now the price of green vegetables and radishes is very cheap, and our three yards are very large, which one can also put down dozens of pickle jars, it is better for the three of us to open a pickle workshop, and in the future, we will make money and help the poor like Chao Tuanlian." ”
Wang Jinniang said: "Okay, I support." I just have to think of a font size, and I can't do business without a font size. ”
Li Kuiniang said: "You are from a big place, you are well-informed, so it's up to you to think." ”
Wang Jinniang thought for a while and said: "Everyone calls us Lao Gan Niang, I think this pickle is called Lao Gan Niang pickles." ”
"Good. That's it. ”
The three old ladies set up the Lao Gan Niang Pickle Workshop.
In just three days, the tent elementary school was built, and more than 1,000 students gathered on the playground. Principal Wang Lun delivered an important speech, don't look at Wang Lun's down-and-out grass, but in fact, this person is good in terms of vision and talent, but he is unlucky.
I talked a lot about it. In the end, Wang Lun said: "Do you know who provided you with books and food? ”
Students, you look at me, I don't know if I look at you, some say it's Shi Jin, and some say it's the old godmother.
Wang Lun said: "What you said is right, but what you do the most is Chao Gai Chao group practice, Chao group practice does not ask for returns, and takes out a large amount of food and a large amount of money to provide you with food and drink, so that you have three meals a day." If you use the money to build a school, will you be able to read and write, understand things, and remember everything? ”
"Remember, it's Chao Gai Chao's group practice." The students said.
At this time, the teacher in charge of the roll call came over and said to Wang Lun: "Principal Wang, there are two fewer students than when the roll call was called, the day before yesterday there were 1,562 students, and today there are only 1,560 students. ”
Wang Lun frowned and said: "Catch fast and Zhuang Ding patrol very tightly, how can you lose two people for no reason, and immediately report to the head of the city on duty." ”
It was none other than Chao Ran who was on duty in the vicinity of the homeless village today, it was Chao Ran who brought 50 people and the school teacher to report and immediately began to investigate. Due to the large number of people patrolling, it was quickly found out, it turned out that the afternoon before yesterday, Song Jiang and Song Zhusi, a big family in Yuncheng, brought his family to give porridge to the homeless, which was a good deed, and the catchers naturally would not stop it. When the porridge was served, Song Jiang found that the two thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys looked very white and cute, like a female doll, Song Jiang liked it very much, and said that he would take them back to be scholars.
The adults in the two boys' families are gone, and they have suffered hardships along the way, and when they meet a middle-aged uncle like Song Jiang, they are naturally happy and willing to go, so the two of them went to Song Zhisi's house to be scholars.
Chao Ran didn't dare to slack off, and immediately reported to Chao Gai. Chao Gai frowned when he heard this, in addition to being too heavy about fame and fortune, Song Jiang can also be regarded as a good person, willing to give. But there is only one thing that is not good, this person has a beautiful wife and concubine, but he doesn't like it, he mixes with five big and three rough men like Lei Heng all day long, and now he has found two handsome little boys as scholars, which is really incomprehensible.
Chao Gai said: "There has long been an order that children under the age of fourteen go to school is a hard and fast rule, and no one is allowed to violate it, but Song Jiang didn't take this rule seriously." You go and inform Niu Gao on duty in the city, and arrest Song Jiang to the county government for questioning. ”
At this time, Wu Yong just came back, and hurriedly said, "Brother, no." ”
"Oh, why not?" Chao Gai asked.
Wu Yongdao: "Everyone knows that my brother and that Song Jiang are incompatible, although my brother is doing this to enforce the law impartially, but when outsiders who don't know the truth see my brother, this is a private revenge." ”
"What do you mean?" Chao Gai asked.
Wu Yong said: "If Song Jiang brought it back only as a scholar, at most it means a few words from him, and let him send the child back to study." Taking a step back, what can he do if he has a broken sleeve fetish? The laws of the Great Song Dynasty are sparse, and at most he will be sentenced to abuse the child and pay some money for herbal medicine, but the Song family can still afford it. It's not as good as this. ”
Wu muttered his strategy again, and immediately reported it to Shi Wenbin, saying that Song Jiang abducted two children and treated them as little ministers.
Shi Wenbin said angrily: "Why is this Song Zhisi so impertinent, now Yuncheng is at a critical juncture of development, how can you do such a thing and bring me the county lieutenant Zhu Tong." ”
Soon, the messenger from the yamen brought Zhu Tong here, and Shi Wenbin said: "Someone sued Song Zhisi, saying that Song Jiang abducted his two nephews, openly as scholars, and secretly did shady things. ”
Zhu Tong's face was full of embarrassment, he knew Song Jiang's little habit, he didn't need to marry a daughter-in-law all year round, and he said that heroes and heroes don't get close to women. However, Song Jiang was his good friend after all, and immediately Zhu Tong said: "Someone must have deliberately framed him, Song Jiang is a big family in this county, how can he do such a thing." ”
