Chapter 142: Pingkang Fang
"Don't all manly men want to have a good day? Power, beauty, and wealth are the three elements that men love the most. ”
Fan Jingjing said very bluntly, after getting along with the farmers in the Fan family manor, what she changed the most was the more obscure way of speaking before, she found that these farmers, if they spoke in a few circles, they couldn't turn around at all, and they would secretly wonder if there was something wrong with Fan Jingjing's brain, and express personal sympathy.
"I don't know how to read." Although Liang Shu said this, his expression did not show any regret.
"It's not that we Datang don't have illiterate officials, aren't many of those who were born by fighting wars illiterate?"
"These people don't govern the people, and they will definitely have someone with them to help them with some paperwork."
Liang Shu still had something to say, but he didn't say it, but showed an expression that you understand.
Fan Jingjing wanted to tell him regretfully, in fact, she didn't understand, but Fan Jingjing closed her mouth and pretended to be deep.
It seems that if you want to do things for the masses, after reaching a certain range, it is very important to know words, in Fan Jingjing's eyes, it is not difficult to know words, but it is more difficult to become an old pedant.
is full of economy, and he has to study higher and more advanced knowledge than others, fortunately, the imperial examination has not yet become popular in the Tang Dynasty, so not everyone who is an official will be able to do it.
The university has a lot of learned people, and even if it's not me but their students, the expectation of the future is to be officials.
Going to Fan Jingjing's farm to serve the farmers, for them, is equivalent to becoming someone else's domestic servant, these college students are not college students in later generations, they can read to this point, and they also have a lot of knowledge, they are all people with a foundation in the family, at this time, books, one book to buy a farmer's house, that is more than enough, and even the farmers sell all their family property, at most they buy two books.
Fan Jingjing doesn't need people who read and read very thoroughly, but he needs people who write smoothly and elegantly, and it is best to be able to write down oral articles into vernacular, she doesn't want to use classical Chinese to test those farmers who have just learned to read and write Fan's Manor, now the most recognizable words in Fan's Manor, even teachers don't need to teach, they remember the most important is the large and small shops in Fan's Manor, and the words on the wooden signs carved next to each commodity, The wooden signs have the names of the goods written on them, and the Arabic numerals next to them represent their prices.
At first, no one understood Arabic numerals, Fan Jingjing took care of some old people in the store, and half a small child, one by one taught them the meaning of these words, the numbers that seem to be related to money, are the easiest for them to understand, at the beginning, they don't know any words, not even Chinese, but they are the easiest to remember these words, and even know that these numbers can be easily calculated, they are also the fastest people to learn to calculate.
It can be said that it is because they have such an environment and force them to have such ability.
Now when it comes to the math quiz in the school, the best results are these shopkeepers.
After all, mathematics is still teaching addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The arithmetic of fractions has not yet been taught.
Fan Jingjing feels that the people around her are changing every day, but this change is a change for the better, people who were originally a little lazy and idle, but they also saw that they could become better in the future, so they also became serious.
And the really lazy people were also forcibly transformed by Sun Erlang and had to work hard.
However, the more lazy people are assigned to work harder by Sun Erlang, and there is no way to be lazy if they want to be lazy.
Liang Shu and these people are particularly effective in farming, so they have been assigned to the farming department, not because they have nothing to do, but because they are often able to organize farming people to work together when farming, and people have no way to be lazy.
Therefore, under Sun Erlang's suggestion, the agricultural department is already dominated by Liang Shu, and he has received many more point cards than others.
People with leadership skills are people that Fan Jingjing especially needs to discover, because he lacks people with leadership skills around him, but Liang Shu still knows too few words, and now the places that can really come in handy are only in the fields, and most of the people he can manage are shouting, and there are not many places to use words.
However, in the future, Fan Jingjing's farmland is more and more when there is no way to manage it, but fortunately, Liang Shu's attitude towards words is thirsty for knowledge and very serious in learning, you must know that in the Fan family manor, if you pass the text test, each level can add a hundred points card salary, and the average person's work is only four hundred and fifty points card a month.
The salary of a hundred point cards is very much for the people of Fan's Manor, so it has enhanced everyone's enthusiasm for learning and learning words, although everyone knows that it is very important, but this importance is ethereal, they don't know how much help they can bring to their lives, but things like a salary increase are an immediate impact, and they have already said one to Fan Jingjing's five-body performance when they haven't gotten the money, and they will never say two, let them hit the wall, and they will ask what strength to hit the wall.
Fan Jingjing is a woman, women are excluded from the cultural system, although the Tang Dynasty has less prejudice against women, but the status of women as a man's subordinate is quite restricted in many places, for example, in the ancestral hall, women can not enter casually, and even the ancestral hall of the birth family can not enter casually, if a woman does not marry one, a man will become a lonely ghost in this life, because growing up in a woman's home will not help her leave a place.
The daughter who marries out spills the water, but when they need their daughter's help, they can shamelessly ask their daughter for help, and some dignitaries and nobles even regard their daughters as a weapon for family development. From birth, it is cultivated to unite with other families.
Fan Jingjing came to Taixue, and there was no strange trick, but Liang Shu went to the neighborhood to buy some pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, rented some tables and chairs from others, and wrote a long notice outside Taixue, this notice is a recruitment notice, the recruitment notice indicates the place of work, salary, income, main work content, and food and accommodation, no day, to and from Chang'an, and explain that after working for five years, send a house to the town outside the Fan family manor, the town outside the Fan family manor, and now for businessmen, the reputation is very big, For students who are not very well-informed in the business world, they may not have heard of anything other than Chang'an.
Then Fan Jingjing began to write the test papers she thought of on the paper, each test paper had different questions, and there were arithmetic questions at the end, but she knew that people outside didn't know what Arabic numerals were, and they used the most basic ones.
The paper was held by Liang Shu, very clear, held high, and turned in all directions from time to time, wanting to let people who passed by see it, and not just holding it, after Liang Shu and Fan Jingjing consulted about the content inside, he also shouted loudly from time to time when someone in relatively ordinary clothes passed by.
Some people listened to Liang Shu's shouting and took a closer look, but when they saw that the place of work was outside the city, those who were better dressed shook their heads and walked away, and they didn't even owe more comments, and most of the people who were poorly dressed couldn't even read these words, although they drooled very much about the salary, but there was no way, they did ask Fan Jingjing if they could go to Fan's farm to work.
In fact, the Fan family manor has not forbidden people to work, and the number of people who come to ask is increasing every day, so a few people brought by Liang Shu gave detailed answers, and pointed out the direction to them, and asked them to go to the Fan family manor to find Sun Erlang.
It's just that from beginning to end, only one literate person came up to talk to Fan Jingjing, but after reading all the many test papers in front of Fan Jingjing, he shook his head, and he could only leave regretfully.
"Will my topic be too difficult?" Fan Jingjing felt a little regretful about such a result.
This place is not far from Huajie Willow Lane, but Fan Jingjing has always wanted to go in that direction, and Fan Jingjing feels that it is a hardship for women to live there.
Although a certain part of the women don't think so, she deeply understands that most of the women in Liyuan are punished women, they may not make any mistakes themselves, but passively enjoy the benefits given by men, so when men are unlucky, they must follow men to fall together.
After going through some hardships inside, maybe their thinking will change somewhat, some may still be able to live, and some can only complain to themselves that Fan Jingjing is not willing to see.
"Maybe some of the older women, they're willing to let us buy them out, right?"
Fan Jingjing has not become a rich man yet, so when she wanted someone before, she never thought of paying for it, even if it was an old woman, the price would not be cheap.
Pingkangfang is also known as "Beili", is the teaching workshop, is also commonly known as the pear orchard, here is the most lively red light district in Chang'an City, the lights are endless at night, the capital Zhufang, there is no way to compare with "Pingkangfang".
When Fan Jingjing came to Pingkangfang, it was noon, but Pingkangfang was not so lively, and many smiling ladies in the workshop were getting up and freshening up.
The ladies of Pingkangfang, although they have a low status in the eyes of the officials, but in the building, there are clear levels up and down, and most of the prostitutes who are taught are in the classroom, and they have a lot to learn.
However, it takes a great deal of grace to be able to receive better resources to educate.
However, some young ladies are the most precious assets for Hualou, and they will not sell them.
In other places, boys are valuable, but here women are valuable, and here men look at purses, but women look at a face and her skills.
Some people are extremely skilled, and they can even do their art without selling themselves, and even wander around various restaurants to engage in teaching work.
For Fan Jingjing, this is another world.
If you want to do business in a strange world, many people will feel very empty-hearted.
Fan Jingjing is a little lady, and she is a very beautiful little lady, and entering Pingkangfang is an extremely strange thing in itself.
entered Pingkangfang, and Fan Jingjing, who originally did not have a fence, put it on.
Fan Jingjing entered Pingkangfang, and the first passerby she saw was no one else, but an oncoming hawker, and at this time, Fan Jingjing breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter where it is, there are still normal people, if there are only criminals in the future, Fan Jingjing will be weak even if she is accompanied by Liang Shu.
There are people who live happily or unhappily everywhere, and Fan Jingjing believes that Pingkangfang also has it, she is not a savior, and there is no reason to save the world.
Some of the ladies here are pitiful, some are not pitiful, but here, they can more or less have a bite to eat, and they eat better than ordinary people.
After all, this is a concentration of high-profit industries, and the Han people have a habit of leftovers, and the rich people, like Americans, eat half of the food and throw it away.
For too many people, a bite of food can sacrifice everything.
Think about it, the eunuch's parents, and even himself, cut off the two taels of meat in order to eat a mouthful of food, and bear the loss of life, not just to be able to eat a little delicious.
Fan Jingjing entered Pingkangfang, and every person in her eyes who was well-dressed and had no job became a pervert, a street vendor selling soup cakes, and looked like she looked at people with colored eyes.
However, at noon, even the rich and powerful families did not have the habit of eating formally, and what they ate was all kinds of pastries.
The things that are sold on the street are tea and pastries. Fan Jingjing even saw an ice shop on the side of the road.
Pingkangfang is a high-consumption area, so it's no wonder that the ice shop is located here.
Seeing the ice shop, Fan Jingjing felt that they should be people who had already figured out the principle of ice making, rather than using stored ice to sell it.
This season is hot and cold, so the business of the ice shop is not necessarily good, so the shop that sells ice drinks, in the winter, often prepares some hot drinks to drink, and the hot drink here is hot bean curd.
Since sugar is still a precious item, it is extremely rare, but it is clear that it has not been used for bean curd, so their bean curd is boiled in salty soup.
After Fan Jingjing sat down inside, she handed over the written greeting to a few people, and asked others to go to a few places to ask if they could trade some food for some literate old ladies to come out.
Fan Jingjing knows that at this time, food is the most precious.
Even if it is a teaching workshop or a restaurant that sells art outside, there is a demand for food.
At this time, they should also have the need to clear some people and exchange more food to come in.
"Try to see, if there is something that says you want me to go and ask in person, you write it down, and if there is still a shortage of people, I will go again.
The most important thing to ask is whether there are any old people there who want to be cleared, and it doesn't matter if they are weaker. "I want to talk to more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
