The children in the orphanage are self-reliant every day, and the older children and the younger children have their own things to do every day.

All of your clothes and bedding are washed by yourself, except for children under the age of three.

Children over the age of three have a variety of tasks to do, including dressing and eating, while at the same time finding time to read and write.

The conditions were difficult, there was not enough pen and paper, and everyone was holding a branch and drawing on the ground at will, but they were barely practicing.

Gu Shenwan had no other way in the past, and now naturally he can't let these people still be like this.

Although there is a lot of order, if you want to survive this winter, it is not enough to hold on to hope.

After Gu Shendui came, he sent Xiao Wang to settle the accounts, and so many account books were all practice.

At the rate at which he is learning now, it only takes time, and he can calculate it quickly.

"I've made you a board on which to write."

The children looked at the black board and wondered what it was.

Although it's a board, it's black, so how do you write?

It's inconvenient to ask if she's not familiar with it, but I've been looking at it with curiosity.

But they weren't the only ones who were curious, and soon someone asked about the role of this board, and Gu Shenwan also waited for them to ask before remembering a patient introduction.

"You can call it a chalkboard, it's a black board, and that's exactly what it means."

They couldn't help but laugh, the black board is called a blackboard, even the uneducated can hear it funny.

Gu Shenwan paused slightly, and when they finished laughing, he took out a piece of flour and scratched it on it.

It was left with a very clear mark, and the word blackboard was quickly written.

"It's like writing on it like this, if anyone comes up and erases the handwriting on it, it's like a trick and it can be changed all at once."

With a suspicious heart, someone came over and wiped it with his hand, only to find that the handwriting on it had indeed disappeared.

Although it is inevitable that there will be a faint mark, but I can't see the words written on it clearly, and I can reuse it again and again next time.

Gu Shenwan breathed a sigh of relief, the children's acceptance of the blackboard was still very high, not only did they not question it, but they were all very curious and wanted to come over and experience it for themselves.

Most of the problems of not having pen and paper were solved at once.

A chalkboard is not difficult to do.

A flat and smooth wooden plank, painted with a layer of black paint and then brushed with a thick layer of tung oil, can achieve this effect.

It's just that I don't know what is not good, although it can eliminate the marks of the powder on it, but it can't be too clean, which means that after using it for a while, it will inevitably get dirty.

Fortunately, the cost is not very high, if it is dirty and broken, it can be replaced immediately without distress.

She had a dozen of them made in one go, each large and flat enough to be used for a long time.

And for the gentleman who teaches, this kind of blackboard is also very useful.

After he used it, he was immediately amazed, if he could use this cheap and easy to use blackboard when he was a child, he would be able to save a lot of pen and ink money.

Because he really wasn't God, he wanted to be able to buy a few of them for money.

The people who can run to the orphanage to act as a gentleman are generally young, and they are all born in a poor family, and they have this enthusiasm and patience.

It is inevitable that their friends or relatives will have children who are studying, and the money saved by buying a few blackboards is already a large expense.

"In addition to the most expensive books, the tuition fee and pen and ink are the most exaggerated in the past, because Xiao sex is everywhere, and it is a huge burden to wait until there is a small success."

Gu Shenwan knew this, it was originally just to facilitate these children's learning, and now he also found a business opportunity.

There is clearly a market for blackboards, although the margins are a little thinner, and it is impossible to say how long it will be imitated.

But this thing still has consumption after all, and it is not complicated to make, and half-grown children can make it themselves.

Before leaving that day, she asked the children if they would like to earn their own money, and it was up to them to decide how to spend the money they earned.

"Children under the age of 10 can save the money they earn, and if they are older, they can also help with things, at least three meals a day, whether they are living or not."

With the exception of a few extraordinarily small babies, everyone was eager.

Save money, they can only beg for money when they open this kind of news, and the money they come from will be snatched away at every turn, and the few remaining ones can only guarantee that they will not starve to death.

But when it was cold, I didn't even have the money to buy a padded jacket.

If you're lucky, you'll be able to get through it, but if you're unlucky, you'll be able to die on the streets, buried in the snow and no one knows.

"Can we really save it ourselves?"

Still skeptical, although they have gained enough now, they are still skeptical about whether they can save money.

Gu Shenwan said as a matter of course, "The blackboard you make yourself will take out and sell it yourself, and the money you earn will naturally belong to you." ”

"If you want, you can choose to keep it for yourself or keep it all together, and everyone will take turns to take care of it for daily expenses."

Under her explanation, most children understand that coming to earn money is not only about saving money, but also about being able to support themselves.

She still puts money here on a regular basis, but if they can be self-reliant, they can choose what they want to do, and they will naturally have a better future in the future.

The children agreed without hesitation, life has been getting more and more difficult recently, and anyone who is a little sensible can see it.

If they can make money themselves, this winter will definitely pass, and maybe they will be able to save money to buy a lot of cotton clothes and quilts, and even sweet fruits.

Gu Shendui finally explained a few words to a few older children before going back.

Xiao Wang counted all the accumulated accounts, and when he actually used it, he realized that the method used now was different from the calculation method used in the past.

Addition and subtraction are all the same, but multiplication and division is unheard of.

In the end, the result was correct.

Originally, he thought it was like fooling around, but in the end, no matter how he calculated it, it was right.

It didn't take long for the thick ledger to come out, because most of it was a repetitive fixed overhead.

"You're really amazing, you can take out so many things, why are you still such an active and nameless person." He was a little sorry that no one discovered her talent.
