Chapter 663: Building a Academy

"Yun Niangzi, that's the case, the county town has funded the rich man to build a academy in our village, and it just so happens that the imperial court also encourages the common people to read, so the county government also supports the construction of this academy, mainly for the children in the village to do enlightenment education and teach them to read and write.

There are not many people in our village who read, and there are few literate people, so I am the only one in Xiucai, so the county government decided to let me be the teacher of this academy, I have no experience, so I want to come and ask you, didn't your father also teach at the beginning? You should be impressed, I'd like to ask you. Lu Xiucai said.

Hearing him say this, before Yun Jinshu could answer, the rest of the people became interested.

"Really? Is there really a academy in our village? I have long wanted my son to go to school and read and write, what is the future of growing crops? It's better to read, but I didn't have the opportunity before. ”

"Me too, I also want my son to read and write, the reader is good, if there is a scholar in our family, I don't know how good it would be now."

"By the way, Lu Xiucai, how much tuition does each child need to go to school in the academy?"

"By the way, you teach in the academy, how much money can you have a month?"

After everyone became interested, they surrounded Lu Xiucai and asked.

"Okay, everyone, take your time, one by one." Lu Xiucai is a scholar, and he is naturally happy to see that everyone attaches so much importance to reading and literacy.

Just now, Zhou Yanyan's mother and daughter said that he had no future, although he was very generous, but he would be a little unhappy in his heart. Now that everyone said that, he was naturally happy.

"A month's tuition is not much, and a child is a penny."

"A penny a month?" Everyone was stunned when they heard Lu Xiucai's answer, "Then how does this academy make money?" Don't die at a loss? It costs a lot of money just for the tables and chairs, not to mention the house. ”

"That's right, although reading and educating people is a merit, but you can't make the academy lose money like this."

"That's why I said that it's useless to be a scholar, and even the academy doesn't make money, tsk......" Zhou Yanyan said in a low voice. But this time no one paid attention to her, and everyone was only curious about why they collected so little money.

"Everyone listens to me, in fact, they all mean to collect, and the rich man who invests in the academy doesn't want to make money from the academy. Isn't it true that many rich people like to give and do good deeds? It's the same reason, investing in the academy and letting children read and write is also a merit, and it is a virtue accumulation, and there will be good rewards in the next life. ”

"I see! I've seen rich people giving porridge to the poor in the county, isn't this the same reason, I understand, I understand. ”

"Then this rich man is really a good man, I don't know which rich man it is. By the way, Lu Xiucai, how much money can you have a month as a teacher? ”

"Not much, not much, just four taels of silver." Lu Xiucai said.

Zhou Yanyan's mother and daughter instantly turned black.

Jiang He's daughter-in-law looked at them with a smile.

"Did you two just say that reading people are useless? Who said that Jia Dafu earned more than Lu Xiucai? Tut-tut, Lu Xiucai earns twice as much as Jia Dafu, who has more and who has less? ”

"Ouch, if you think it's useless to read, don't go to the village academy in the future, and when the time comes, the children in the village will all go to school one by one, and they will all read and write, and your children will be illiterate."

"Yes, but don't go, don't you look down on scholars?"
