The craftsmen worked hard, and even though Cai Dao brought so many people to visit, most of the craftsmen and apprentices were still working hard.

Cai Dao also understands the thoughts of these people, every part completed in their hands is money, and every minute of delay will cause them a minute of loss.

Cai Dao inspected all five factories, but did not say anything.

It's not that I don't want to give opinions, there are still many things that need to be improved in the shipyard, but if you have been relying on yourself, then this shipyard will not be able to develop much in the future.

Although Cai Dao also wanted to stay in Xiaocili, he had to return to the capital before the winter wheat was planted. Therefore, for the shipyard, it is not its nanny, nor can it be a nanny, at best it is just a guide.

Now the entire shipyard is gradually on track, and the sixth and eighth institutes are now the shipyard's talent incubators.

Most of the people gathered inside were young people and half-grown children. While learning mathematics and literacy, they learned from the master carpentry experience and practiced their skills seriously. Once they have completed their studies, if in a few years, they can cultivate a young man with a sharp mind and an open mind, then Cai Dao's energy and money will not be in vain.

More young people will enter here in the future.

Back at home, Cai Dao called Cai Xi and Cai Duwu, and asked them to gather all the housekeepers and servants in the family, the crew of the fleet at home, the head tasks of the people in Xiaocili, and the adopted children in front of the gate of Cai Dao's mansion.

Half an hour later, Cai Dao had something important to announce.

In less than a stick of incense, all the people of the Cai family came, and the people in Xiaoci had been working in the fields all morning, but as soon as the mother-in-law of the family heard that the fortune boy had something to announce, she immediately went to inform her husband and son.

People are gathering more and more, and originally, the people Cai Dao wants to gather have already been angry.

However, when he saw that the people were so active, he decided to wait half an hour, as he had said.

"My family, the people of filial piety. I, Cai Dao, am here today to announce that in the future, Cai Xi will be the internal steward of Cai Mansion, managing all the things in the mansion, as well as farmland and barren mountain pastures; Cai is the external steward, managing the defense and day-to-day operations of the fleet, shipyards and docks. Cai Dao first officially accepted the two of them and clarified the matter of their chief officer.

Because when he entered Beijing before, he didn't expect that he and the Cai family would have such a stiff quarrel, and after Cai Xi's grandfather built the mansion for him alone, the rights and responsibilities of the two people have been unclear, so there have been many disputes between the two.

After speaking, Cai Dao paused, this matter has little to do with the people, and then continued: "I have two things to tell the villagers, first, in the future, all men in filial piety, no matter how big or small, can enter the shipyard to learn carpentry and earn work.

"Childe, according to what you say, I can also go to the shipyard?" The man who spoke was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, who had been working hard for many years facing the loess with his back to the sky, and who was exposed to the wind and rain all year round, and would age faster than later generations, so Cai Dao couldn't tell his actual age at all.

Cai Dao's words were interrupted, but he didn't get angry, but patiently explained. "That's right, even if you're an uncle in your fifties, you can go in.

However, just because you get in doesn't mean you'll get paid.

There are many rules in the shipyard, and anyone who violates the regulations will be deducted centimeters or kicked out of the shipyard.

In addition, in the future, the manufacturing plant will have higher and higher requirements for the carpentry skills of the workers. Whoever has more skills and more work will get more money.

Of course, don't go to the fun if you are sixty or seventy years old, you should stay at home and recuperate. ”

"Childe, I don't know how to do carpentry, what should I do?"

"Yes, yes, we people have been farming all our lives, but we don't know this craft?"

“……”

"Childe, we men have all gone to work in the shipyard, what should we do with the land at home? I won't let those old ladies farm! ”

"What's wrong with the old ladies? Did it freeze you, or did you starve? Why can't we women farm? ”

"Yes......"

“……”

Good fellow, at first it was just the men who asked questions, but just now the guy who was obviously a strict wife said a few more words, and immediately introduced the women who were surrounded by him into the battle group.

It is said that a woman is equivalent to five hundred ducks, so now there are tens of thousands of ducks gathered at the scene, and the noise makes Cai Dao's brain hurt.

Cai Duarm saw that this situation was not a problem, so he shouted at the top of his throat: "You Qiu Ba, what are you talking about, hurry up and close your mouth, Gongzi's words haven't been finished yet?" ”

Fortunately, Widow Tian was pregnant and did not come today. Cai Duwu is actually a very strict wife.

Cai's one-armed prestige was really not covered, and as soon as the words were put down, all the people present quieted down.

Cai Dao knows that he is still young now, and his reputation is higher than Cai Xi and Cai Dusang, but in terms of prestige, he is not as good as these two old men. "The second is that I plan to build a big school in the barren mountains."

School, these two words echoed in the ears of the people like thunder.

The emperors of the Great Song Dynasty spared no effort to promote Confucianism and vigorously promoted literati, and Song Zhenzong's poem of persuasion is even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

It's a pity that in the past, the private schools of the big families in Xiaoci would not be open to the poor people who were suffering from it, not to mention, ordinary people couldn't eat a few full meals all year round, so they still had the money to send their children to study!

If Childe really has to build the school, it will be really a great merit!

"But don't rejoice too soon. In the school I built, I didn't mainly learn anything about the imperial examination, but about mathematics, carpentry, blacksmithing, how to farm, how to raise livestock, and so on. Of course, the school will also invite an old gentleman who has read poetry and books to teach those children who are interested in the imperial examination. However, the premise is that these children have to finish all the subjects I have prescribed before they can learn anything else. ”

This time, after Cai Dao finished speaking, the people below were speechless, and the words of the son just now were too much information for them to digest.

Cai Dao privately instructed Cai Xi: "Grandpa Xi, you are responsible for the affairs of the school."

The address of the school is to choose the barren mountains you bought, find a place with a relatively large valley and a relatively flat terrain, and fence it off.

When the time comes, invite more hunters to come to a big mountain clearing operation, but for the animals in the barren mountains, the main thing is to drive away.

Usually, more hunters should be arranged to guard there, and the safety of the children must be ensured.

I have two requests,

First, the house of the school must be a large brick house, and some arable land must be set aside around the school, which is mainly reserved for children to practice.

Second, the first batch of children to be recruited must be children born in filial piety, and the children of their relatives will not be accepted, including the relatives of Grandpa Xi and Grandpa One-armed, and they must not accept one.

Your relatives can be placed in the next batch. ”

Cai Xi was also a little excited in his heart, he was not like Cai One-armed, his child was not born yet, and he carried a drag oil bottle. In addition to Cai Bucket and Cai Ban, he also has several grandchildren?

"Childe, don't worry, the old slave will definitely handle this matter properly!" After Cai Dao finished instructing, Cai Xi immediately said: "By the way, Childe, what are the criteria for recruitment?" ”

"Hmm!" In fact, three-year-old children should be educated, but in this era, where can Cai Dao find a preschool teacher!

Since Cai Xi cares about the recruitment criteria, these people naturally care about it too. Therefore, Cai Dao said out loud the standards he had set. "Folks, any child in the family between the ages of five and fifteen can be sent to the school. However, children between the ages of 12 and 15 can only learn some carpentry and blacksmithing. ”

"Childe, my doll will be five years old in a few months, can you enter the school!"

"Yes, Childe, my child has just turned fifteen, see if you can be accommodating."
