Chapter 221: A Sure-Profit Business

At this time, even Ying Yun knew this Li Hang's intentions.

Is it literate?

Literacy is a terrible thing.

As early as when he was playing Victoria, Li Hang had seen how difficult it was for Daqingguo's literacy rate to be less than 10 percent.

The culture mentioned here does not mean that barbarians learn etiquette, but that they learn modern science and technology.

This speed of civilization is very slow, because everyone is illiterate.

As the saying goes, books are on the same track as the car, and after the unification of this year, as long as you have enough ability, you can roll out this study.

The biggest trouble in these years is that studying is delaying labor time, and there is also a cheat on the cost of studying, once the real cost rises, it is estimated that there is no large amount of money, and it is impossible to get it.

Especially those ancient classics, you have to pay money to learn them.

"We now have to sort out the commonly used 2,000-word texts for them to study, and they can learn to read and write characters in about a year or two, about an hour a day, and this arrangement is on the line, not asking them to be familiar with ancient scriptures, only requiring them to be able to read and read words, and to be able to do a good job of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division."

This is the minimum that Li Hang requires of them.

They don't have any information to give ordinary people time to study, but if they start to follow these nongsang books, they will have to stay in a village for a while, and no matter how reluctant they are at this time, if they can open a private school in the village, as long as they can teach a lot of literate children, they can also receive bonuses, so it is very simple to go to the countryside to teach.

After all, if you just let them go down to promote a rural farming method, it will be a bit wasteful, so as long as you open a private school, you can let these children read and write, and you can also ask the imperial court to allocate a little money to them, which is regarded as an education fund.

In Li Hang's view, this kind of policy is practical and practical, and people in ancient times may not be willing to use this policy, because it is using the state's money to subsidize education.

Such a policy is definitely a good policy in the eyes of modern people, but in ancient times, this practice was actually very dangerous, because in this era, a large part of this kind of policy that needs to be implemented at the grassroots level is carried out by these families and some local powers.

If such a policy is meant to weaken them, then it will be difficult to enforce.

"I'm afraid it's hard." Even Ying Lu knew the difficulty of this matter, but he had no way to joke about it, because this kind of thing was impossible to talk about in detail.

"It doesn't matter, I'll test it in my fiefdom now, and see if it can be implemented in my small place, if it is implemented, we can start reporting to the court!" It's called a pilot! "This kind of experience in later generations is actually not a very troublesome thing, and this kind of pilot in later generations is actually used to carry out some policies that I don't know if they can succeed, and this kind of implementation is also a small-scale experiment.

Li Hang now just wants to use this kind of policy to promote the seizure of power, and as for whether it can be promoted in other places, Li Hang is too lazy to care.

As long as it is said that reading and literacy can bring benefits to people, and the benefits that they can really see, they will definitely do it.

Once the yield per mu can rise by more than 100 catties, they probably want to read and write.

What's more, at this time, Li Hang has more than one means to increase production, once it is really used, it can greatly change the current situation.

Although many people have started composting these days, it is actually just word of mouth, and they don't know what to do best, and they haven't seen the various fermentations at this time.

At least for now, their compost is still very raw.

The one proposed by Li Hang is mainly used to increase production.

Increase the yield and enrich the variety of food, soybeans and vegetables can be planted, so that the output of things is different throughout the year, and it can also make these people eat different food, if you count the use of pork and fat at this time, it can be said that as long as the people in their fiefdom follow the content of those books compiled by themselves, they can make a lot of money, as for the rest, Li Hang doesn't care very much, the most important thing in this year is to make money.

"Don't worry too much, as long as you can lead them to make money, they will follow you."

Li Hang didn't refute anything, he came from that era, and naturally knew the grassroots better than the children of rich families like Ying Yun and Ying Lu.

For so many years, there has been no change at the grassroots level, and at this time everyone knows that once this book is publicized, it will definitely increase the output of these farmers.

Li Hang looked at these apprentices around him, maybe they could also take on this responsibility.

But if you want them to take on this responsibility, you really don't have the courage, after all, first of all, they are still children, and many people have not experienced this kind of reference struggle, so to a large extent, they are just some good babies, and it is basically impossible to let them fight for power and profit.

And there are only three people in Li Hang's hands who can take on these responsibilities, one is Yinglu, and the other two are the two people sent by Zhu Zhengheng at the beginning, one is the child of a merchant family, and the other is the child of a family.

Only these three are qualified to do so.

Qin Zheng glanced at Li Hang, and then nodded. "Li Hang, why don't I recommend a few people to you! I also know a few depressed talents, these people are hopeless when the exam, in fact, they also want to be miserable, and now they have no way to be the teacher of the private school, but let them teach people to read and write, this is no problem, and these people are still mixing well, which is enough to show their ability. ”

Li Hang nodded, this matter can be settled.

"Let's eat here today!" Li Hang said with a smile.

After finishing the book of Nongsang, Li Hang breathed a sigh of relief, and he also had a good plan for the promotion of Nongsang.

Looking at the Hui Yun monk who was making tofu there, the corners of Li Hang's mouth couldn't help laughing. "Huiyun monk, don't be afraid, making tofu is the most cost-effective, because no matter how you do it, you won't lose money, it's dried tofu if it's hard, it's tender tofu when it's soft, it's tofu brain when it's thin, and even if you accidentally leave it for a long time, you can still make moldy tofu, even in winter, you can still throw these tofu into the ice and snow and freeze it, you can make it into frozen tofu, it's all delicious."

As soon as Li Hang finished speaking, he heard the sound of two people beside him swallowing spit.

Looking at the expressions of Ying Yun and Ying Lu who wanted to eat, Li Hang rolled his eyes helplessly, the family was all foodies.
