In the end, Franklin failed to come up with a solution that satisfied everyone—or rather, the solution he came up with was not a solution at all.

The solution that Franklin came up with was to get all of his students to give up the entrance exams to church schools.

"Let's all calm down, let's face the facts, in fact, the number of students in the church schools who go out of the third district every year is at most three or four, and there are so many students in the third district every year, if you think about it, will you be the lucky ones? Therefore, the impact of this fatwa on everyone is not as great as we imagined......

Franklin's argument makes sense, but it doesn't make any sense: who's to say they weren't one of those lucky ones?

Everyone thought they might as well be one of those lucky ones, or they wouldn't have spent a lot of money studying with Franklin.

"Listen to me, in fact, public schools are not bad, and most of the students who have to leave me every year because they are old go to public schools, and now they are all doing well, and some are clerks, some are magistrates, and some ......are stewards in the Duke's Palace."

The students don't want to hear these words either.

They were not the children of lowly commoners, their families were either declining nobles or wealthy merchants, and their aim was to squeeze into the real aristocracy or return to glory, and a small sheriff would obviously not be able to meet their demands.

"We just want to take the entrance exam for the church school!"

"Mr. Franklin, help us figure it out!"

......

The students tossed and turned over and over for a few words, arguing for a long time without getting any results from Franklin, and finally stopped attending class, and went home one by one, to tell the elders in the family about the sudden news, and see what they could do.

These students are not scary, what is scary is the parents behind them, and that is a real tough battle!

The thought of this gave Franklin a headache.

But in front of him, there is one more thing that he needs to solve first.

Franklin glanced at Norman, who was sitting in front of him.

Norman was also looking at Franklin.

The two of them were now sitting opposite each other at a desk in Franklin's study.

Norman's expression was strange: unlike the shock, anxiety, despair, and anger of the other students when they heard the news, Norman's expression was calm now, as if he had heard something he regretted rather than something that would change the course of his life.

I can't see that this rough peasant is quite calm, which is very rare.

Franklin thought to himself.

Little did he know that Norman was about to come up and tear him up when he first heard the news.

Why can't he take the entrance exam?! Why should he be cut off from becoming a mage and becoming a nobleman?! It's so hateful!!

This was Norman's first reaction when he heard the news from Franklin.

He was still imagining his future good life, but in the blink of an eye, he was completely destroyed. He was not as gentle as the students, and he had the fine traditional character of the Ashley village peasants, who could not move his mouth if he could do so, and in his frustration he almost rushed to tear Franklin apart and demanded an explanation.

His hands were stretched out to set aside the students in front of him, and his feet were already out of the way.

At this moment, someone from the Knights Templar spoke in his body.

"Don't be impulsive!

It was a high-pitched man's voice, and the voices of the many mages were accurately heard by Norman.

Norman was impressed by the voice, an old mage who had lived in his body for a long time, calling himself "Gawain" and a member of the Templar Order.

It was only after hearing this voice that Norman temporarily restrained his actions.

The Knights Templar taught Norman the character and usage, and he made a lot of money among his students, and the Knights Templar said that they couldn't just think about the church school and leave one more way back, but now it really went wrong, and it can be said that these wise mages of the Templar Order have won the trust of Norman, and feel that what they say is reasonable, and it is for their own good, so Norman, who has always been wild and untamable, will now restrain himself.

"If he were a mage, you might die!"

Gawain spoke eagerly.

After several days of continuous teaching of new languages by Franklin, as well as close communication with the Knights Templar, Norman's level of the ancient language has improved by leaps and bounds, and it is no longer a problem to engage in simple daily conversations.

"You say he's not a true mage. ”

Norman whispered a conversation with Gawain, but because the scene was very noisy, he was not afraid of being heard. And now that everyone's attention is on Franklin, no one will pay attention to his strange behavior.

Gawain: "What if he is? The first rule of the Knights Templar is that the safety of the life of the Norman is paramount, and nothing is more important than the life of the Norman. So please cherish your life, we can't risk it!"

Norman was very comfortable with this: he had never been called a man so sincerely. The only exception is the Colin family, but they have been deceived by themselves, and it is the first time that someone like Gawain has sincerely called "Lord Norman", not to mention how comfortable it is.

And what else is he saying?

"Nothing is more important than the life of a Norman!"

Although Norman didn't quite understand what the "supreme meaning" was, he could still understand the latter sentence, which made him very comfortable to listen to.

This feeling of being valued is really cool, especially being so valued by a wise and noble mage, so Norman is not in a hurry to go up to Franklin for an explanation, let's listen to what Gawain has to say.

The other mages were arguing again.

"Heck, this sycophant is so loud, I'm going to vomit!"

"Brother, sober up, are you too involved in this role-playing, aren't you? ”

"Do you know how to play, or do you play a lot, I am ashamed of myself in Xia Ye Liangchen. ”

"The Knights Templar's cult is full of such smugglers?"

"Hahaha, it's interesting, this kind of person who doesn't give a house manager really can't talk about the anchor. ”

"I think he's telling the truth, if the anchor hangs, we'll still watch a fart? The anchor must not hang, the Knights Templar's second-year boys work hard. ”

......

It is undoubtedly very difficult for a normal person to find the one he wants to hear from this large number of voices, but Norman is no longer a normal person after more than ten years of torture, and with the corresponding ancient phrases he sees in his left eye, he can easily find Gawain's voice.

"And why are you so anxious? When you first arrived in Cárdenas, did you think about becoming a mage? You just wanted to live, at most one more to live, and you have already done that. ”

"Your 42 silver nar, enough food for you for a few months, your skill in making the ancient cage can give you a stable source of income, you can not only live, but also live well, you have reached your original goal, why are you so anxious?"

"So, calm down, don't be so anxious, it's just a small thing, not as serious as you think. You have to be calm, only calm can handle things well......"

Norman listened to this, and gradually felt that it made sense, and it was indeed just like what Gawain said, and his mood gradually calmed down, unlike the other students who looked like the sky was about to fall.

In the process of searching for Gawain's voice, the voices that Norman automatically filtered out said:

"This guy is a psychiatrist?"

"It seems that joining this Knights Templar really requires some skills, and I said that my resume was thrown in the past, how did it go to the sea. ”

", don't you just avoid the heavy and light? ”

"If you can do it, you can go up, if you can't beep. ”

"Hey, I'll beep and I won't go, you bite me. ”
