Fu Zhu followed behind Wang Qinian, his face full of flattery.

"Brother Qi Nian, teach me a few more words, please, teach me a few more words!"

"Don't teach!" Wang Qinian didn't look at him, and walked towards the northeast of the village with his toes proud.

In fact, Wang Qinian doesn't know many words himself, it's just **hundred, enough for him to understand ordinary official documents. His response in this regard is really slow, far less fast than his mastery of military skills, this person said, people are long, and Yu Guozhen is helpless about this.

According to Yu Guozhen's requirements, for every word you know, you can exchange it for sugar, if you want to change the second one, in addition to the new word, you have to review the old knowledge. Therefore, for teenagers such as Fu Zhu, who were already lacking in nutrition, a word was a piece of sugar, and they didn't dare to ask the adult tiger guard, so Wang Qinian became the child king.

At the beginning, Fu Zhu took the lead in grabbing sugar, but only three days later, he followed Wang Qinian's brother, his elder brother, and his brother was short. Wang Qinian is a little naïve, but he is also a solid person, and some of Fu Zhu's tricks are enough for him, but every time Yu Guozhen learns about it afterwards, he will inevitably have to double it back, so Fu Zhu can only honestly exchange literacy for sugar now. With Yu Guozhen's support, Wang Qinian's child is naturally very cool, and now he has a small follower wherever he goes.

On the site of the intended school building, a well was built first. It took them two days to dig the well, a six-meter-deep well, filtered with river sand at the bottom, then bricked with green bricks to keep it from collapsing, and finally. Galvanized steel pipes are buried and resealed with cement.

The steel pipe is exposed to the ground to the waist, and the next thing is to install the steel pipe on the wellhead of the hand-pressed well. Because of the emergence of rubber, the hand-pressed well is quite good, and galvanizing is not a difficult thing for Xinxiang's metallurgical technology today - in fact, Song Yingxing recorded in "Tiangong Kaiwu" the skill of using calamine as a raw material crucible to smelt "lead".

Today, I'm going to see if this well can be used.

When Wang Qinian arrived. There were circles of people around the well, and almost all of the people from this small village, which was named "Nansha Village" by Yu Guozhen, arrived. Not only them, but also people from the neighboring villages, and even saw Li people in strange costumes. For a small place like Changhua. Where there's something new, it's something that can attract all the neighbors.

Seeing this situation, Yu Guozhen laughed: there is at least one thing in common between ancient and modern, that is, the curiosity of the Chinese nation.

This is also a key to making it easier for the Chinese nation to accept new affairs, when a new object comes out, the Chinese nation will always use their brains to figure out its principle in addition to surprise, and then start to imitate, and then surpass. Some people call this ability a "copycat", but Yu Guozhen doesn't think it's contempt. The curiosity and learning spirit of the Chinese people are originally rooted in the grassroots class, as long as they are given the right soil, even if they fall behind for a while, they can catch up. Until beyond.

"Daddy Fu, you can press it." He smiled and beckoned to the old man in the village.

Father Fu looked to be seventy years old, but in fact he was only in his early fifties, that is, the last old man who had the courage to negotiate with Yu Guozhen that day. Hearing Yu Guozhen's words, he came over boldly and reached out to grab the handle. Under Yu Guozhen's demonstration, he began to lift the high-pressure handle, and the air in the original well lifted the leather ring valve with this action. Daddy Fu glanced at Yu Guozhen again, Yu Guozhen poured a bottle of water into the well, and then motioned for Daddy Fu to press.

Father Fu's movements were extremely unnatural at first, but after pressing it twice, he got used to it, and then he saw silver water gushing out of the well, like a sweet spring.

"Ahh There was an exclamation all around.

Changhua is not short of water, the annual precipitation according to last year's statistics, reached more than 1,700 millimeters, but the precipitation is too concentrated, making the rainy season floods and dry season droughts. Being able to press out the well water is still somewhat attractive to the people here. Of course, the most amazing thing for them was that this device turned out to be really useful!

Nothing is more convincing than seeing it with your own eyes. Although Daddy Fu is old, his childlike innocence still exists, and he keeps pressing hard, and the people around him have come to fetch water, and some people have drunk it all, and the taste of the water is quite sweet, which is completely different from the water they brought in the Changjiang River outside the village.

"Tsk, this old man is really good!"

"I heard that it is like Su Dongpo, the stars in the sky descend to earth!"

For the people of Changhua, Su Dongpo, who was once degraded to this, is the most amazing person they have ever seen, so the old word of mouth has a lot of stories about Su Dabeard. Therefore, after seeing Yu Guozhen's methods, he couldn't help but compare Su Shi with him.

"The next step is to build a school." Yu Guozhen looked at the people around him with shining eyes: "I said three days ago, if you are willing to come to help, as long as you are willing to work, you have three meals a day, and you will be paid another salary, will you do it or not?" ”

Without this well, the people of Nansha Village would not believe him, but with this well, it is different. Let's not talk about the matter of "running a school", but there is absolutely no discount in the matter of eating, at least in the three days of digging the well, all those who come to help are in charge of three days!

Even the boys from Nansha Village who were forcibly brought to this wasteland by Yu Guozhen also had three full meals a day, and their eyes lit up.

"Master, take care of the rice...... Is it a meat dish? Someone asked boldly.

Yu Guozhen has taken care of the rice of the people who come to work in the past three days, but they don't care about the dishes, they themselves are constantly fishy every day. This is not that Yu Guozhen wants to specialize himself, but to let these villagers know that what they are doing now is only enough to eat enough, and if they want to eat meat, they have to follow the rhythm of Xinxiang, not the lazy appearance they are now!

"Want meat?" Yu Guozhen asked with a smile.

"Yes!" Everyone nodded in unison.

"Simple, work hard, and you will have meat to eat." Yu Guozhen said: "Well done, you have learned more skills, you don't need me to send meat to you, you can buy meat yourself." ”

Hearing this last sentence, everyone laughed, now Changhua is poor, the population is sparse, almost no one can raise pigs, even if there is money, there is no place to buy meat!

But anyway, under the encouragement of Yu Guozhen, his school plan finally began. The cement and red bricks were transported from Changhua by boat, and in just ten days, the school was built.

A small village with more than 60 people and only 12 school-age teenagers, naturally there is no need for a big school, in fact, what he built is a row of eight large tile houses, considering the current temperament of the villagers, Yu Guozhen did not directly install glass windows, anyway, Hainan has a warm climate, not afraid of cold wind and freezing people. Two of the eight tiled rooms were opened up to serve as a school, and the twelve teenagers were still very spacious to study in them. A simple wood-painted blackboard, squeaky chalk when writing, and three lessons were initially a novelty for the teenagers. Not only them, but also the parents of the children, always come to listen and wonder what this school is teaching.

It is not Yu Guozhen who teaches, but a teacher from Xinxiang - in fact, he is just an eighteen-year-old boy, surnamed Cheng, whose name is Dongsheng, and he is from the third phase of Huwei. He was a little nervous at first, but after a few days, he got used to it. He taught three subjects by himself, including literacy, arithmetic, and practical learning, and spent about six hours a day, one of which was spent playing sports with the teenagers.

"Only by being literate can we understand the textbooks in our hands and learn more skills; Only by knowing arithmetic can we measure the acres of land at home and calculate the yield of grain; Only by learning can we understand why pressurized wells can provide water, and make more useful equipment to facilitate work and life. ”

Every day before class, this passage is memorized by all twelve people. Fu Zhu has some talent for reading, and he can recite it on the same day, the meaning of this passage, their "Teacher Cheng" explained in detail, for a teenager in a small place like Fu Zhu, Teacher Cheng, who can read and write, can write and calculate, is a great character, and what he said, of course, will not be false.

However, Fu Zhu's favorite is still the activity class. The content of their activity is basketball, which is a new sport that emerged in Xinxiang after the practical application of rubber, because it requires fewer people and the court is quite simple, so it is very popular. In front of the school, there is a flat mud field, a trunk on each side of the tree, and then nail a few wooden boards, and then nail an iron frame about three meters away, and the basketball court is formed. But on the day of completion, it was repaired again, because Qi Niu had a big slam dunk and directly buckled the basket frame.

And the scene at that time made Fu Zhu extremely impressed.

They also started to learn basketball, but before each time they played the ball, Mr. Cheng always asked them to stand in a line first, start by forming a line, then align and turn to the left and right, walk and run in unison, and toss before taking them to play with the ball. Under the temptation of the ball, their queue learned quickly, and after seven days, they were already looking good.

For Teacher Cheng and Brother Qi, Fu Zhu admires him very much, but for Teacher Cheng and Brother Qi's boss, Yu Guozhen, who they call "official", Fu Zhu is afraid. It's strange to say, he still dares to be naughty in the face of the huge Qi Niu, but as long as the eyes of the Yu official look at it, they are twelve children, and one by one they are immediately restrained.

The tragic situation of Li Lezi that day, everyone saw it with their own eyes, Yu Guanren smiled, and Brother Qi rushed up and pressed Li Lezi into the mud!

Therefore, when Fu Zhu saw Yu Guozhen standing in his field talking to his father, his heart suddenly sank, and he thought that he was naughty, and Yu Guanren came to look for trouble, turned around and was about to leave, but was seen by his father.

"Little pig, come and kowtow to the big officials!" Fu Bao called out his son's nickname.

Yu Guozhen turned his face sideways and looked at Fu Zhu: "You don't need to kowtow, just salute me according to the rules of the school." ”

Fu Zhu came up and saluted, and felt strange in his heart, what did this powerful Yu official do in his own field.
