"In addition to the teaching building, there must also be a dormitory, which is a special place for children to live, and this is also built with three floors, just like an inn, divided into separate rooms, and several children live in one room, and take care of each other.

"The cafeteria, the place to eat, just build a floor here, but the location has to be larger, otherwise the children may not be able to sit down. When the library is built, I will have people put all kinds of books here, and both children and teachers can read them here for free. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Ao couldn't help but be a little moved.

"There are also bathhouses, playgrounds, gymnasiums...... "Xue Wu said the same.

Zhou Ao listened, his expression became more and more serious, and occasionally he asked if he didn't understand.

In the end, Xue Wu finished speaking, and Zhou Ao said: "I have written down everything you said, I will draw a sketch when I go back, and you will see if there is anything else to add when the time comes." ”

"Old Zhou, why don't you live directly in my house? and so as not to run on both ends. When the time comes, it is convenient to communicate with each other, and the chefs in my house are very skilled, so that you can eat and drink well. ”

Of course, the original chef's skills can only be said to be not bad, but with Xue Wu, a chef, who often gives advice, the chef's cooking skills have naturally improved greatly, and the meals made now can be said to be very delicious and in line with Xue Wu's taste.

Zhou Ao did not refuse, when the original exquisite people invited craftsmen to work, they all had to provide food and accommodation, and until the work was done, they would give some reward in addition to the remuneration and send the master away.

Still, "I have to go back and get something." ”

Nothing else, the tools you have at hand can't be left behind.

Xue Wu: "Then I'll send you back." ”

After returning to the town and getting his things, Zhou Ao followed Xue Wu to the Zhao Mansion and settled down in the Zhao Mansion.

Xue Yu assigned a small servant to listen to his orders, and bought all the things on the list that Zhou Ao gave her and sent them to him.

Zhou Ao took a look at it, saw that what she bought was of high quality, nodded with satisfaction, and after eating and taking a bath, he entered the retreat mode and concentrated on drawing the design drawings.

Basically never went out of the door.

The food was brought to him in the room by the servant.

During the period when Zhou Ao was drawing the design drawings, Xue Wu had already done all the preliminary work, such as inviting the construction team to clean up the Devil Crying Forest, contacting various merchants to order, bricks, tiles, wood and stone, and the like.

Five days later, Zhou Ao's first sketch was finished, he took a bath and ate comfortably, and asked the little servant to call Xue Wu over.

"Look at it." Zhou Ao nodded his chin towards the drawing on the table.

Although he was busy for five days and didn't sleep well, his spirit was even better than before, firstly because he had returned to the post he loved, and secondly, the tea that Xue Wu provided him with was spiritual tea, which had great benefits for his body.

So his original depression was swept away, and the whole person was refreshed.

Xue Wu unfolded the drawing, and was suddenly amazed by the design on it, painting a very thin brush, clearly outlining the image of each building, and there are many notes next to it, such as material, size, and so on.

The overall look is antique, but it is comfortable and atmospheric.

In addition to the overlook view, there are also front and side views, and the interior view of each building, which allows her to fully understand what the college will look like after it is completed.

In addition to the main buildings, there are also some small buildings scattered around, and even the greenery has been considered.

Xue Wu could already imagine how beautiful this academy would be when it was completed.

"Old Zhou, this picture of yours is simply amazing, I can't wait to see the academy completed!"

Zhou drank the soup arrogantly and methodically, well, this chicken soup is really fresh.

He accepted her compliment unceremoniously, "If there is no problem, I will settle it." ”

"Sure, sure. I've already hired those craftsmen, do you think when the construction will start? ”

Zhou Ao took out a yellow calendar from under his pillow and flipped through it, "The eighth day of the new year is a good day, and it is advisable to start work." ”

"Isn't that tomorrow?"

Zhou Ao has been in retreat for five days, and has forgotten the specific day, "Tomorrow is the eighth day of the new year?" That's just right. ”

Early the next morning, Xue Wu and Zhou Ao had breakfast and took a car to the Ghost Crying Forest.

Now it can no longer be called a forest, the trees have been cut down and piled up in the clearing, and the workers are working in full swing.

At a glance, there were one hundred and eighty people.

Winter is the slack season, and young and middle-aged people in the countryside come to the city to do short-term work, wanting to take the opportunity to earn some money to supplement their families.

As long as it's not the one who likes to steal and play tricks, Xue Wu stayed.

Anyway, the more people there are, the faster the work will be done.

Because of the good treatment here, the workers are working hard for fear of being laid off.

There is a special shack to live, no need to go back and forth at both ends, three meals a day are full, from time to time you can eat meat, the salary is enough, a month, where to find such a good job?

Do it this time, at the end of the year, you can definitely have a rich year!

Now the workers are building their own huts, and Chen Tian is in charge of overseeing the work.

Because this school was built for orphans, and only orphans will be included in the future, Xue Wu put this project under the foundation, and the account was also taken from the foundation.

After discovering Xue Ao, Chen Tian hurriedly came over to greet him, and Xue Ao introduced to him: "This is Master Zhou Aozhou, and he will have the final say in the construction of the academy in the future." ”

"I've seen Master Zhou in the next place." Chen Tian respectfully saluted Zhou Ao.

Xue Wu said to Zhou Ao again: "This is Chen Tian, the vice president of our foundation, he is responsible for all the chores on the construction site, if you have anything, just tell him." ”

Zhou Ao nodded at Chen Tian.

Chen Tian led the way in front, led the two of them around the construction site, and reported the current preparations and progress.

Xue Wu felt that it was really right to buy Chen Tian in the first place, his work ability was undoubted, whether it was being a housekeeper, handling the affairs of the foundation, or now being in charge of the construction project of the college, he did a good job.

She feels that such a talent should not be bound by a deed of sale.

So when she left, she made a promise to Chen Tian: "When this academy is built, I will return your deed of sale to you." ”

Chen Tian was stunned for a moment, and then turned to joy, "Thank you, girl!" ”

Who wouldn't want to be free? Slaves were not allowed to participate in the imperial examinations, and in this era of "everything is inferior, only those who are high in education", not being able to take the imperial examination is equivalent to cutting off the way to climb upward.

Chen Tian didn't care about himself, because he was now with a good master, but he didn't want his descendants to become slaves like him.

Xue Wu promised to return the deed of sale to him, which was undoubtedly a great favor to him, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a reinvention of Entong.

Chen Tian, who has always been calm and calm, couldn't help but have hot eyes at this time.
