Who knows, Ning Wuxian directly smiled and waved his hand: "No, I'm serious, Brother Cheng said before that if you have difficulties in running a village school, you will ask me for help, and I also promised Brother Qin that I would find a way to solve this problem, and after I meditated in the dungeon for a few days, I finally thought of a good way." ”

Shen Youchu, who heard this, was full of puzzlement on his little face: Hasn't Ning Gongzi been eating, drinking, and having fun in the dungeon? It turned out that he not only strategized and was able to win the Ye family thousands of miles away, but also thought about so many things?

Ji Jin saw that he overturned his reasons, and the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely.

And Qin Fenglan's eyes have become a little unkind.

"Brother Ning, is your good solution to give up running a village school, let the children be exploited by the adults again, and make more money for them?"

Qin Fenglan hadn't had much contact with Ning Wuxian, he only knew that this person was brilliant and lived up to the name of a poet.

also knows that this person's perfume business is booming, and an order can be worth the income of many rich and noble families for a year.

But he never expected that Ning Wuxian, as a literati, would fall into the eyes of that money.

I can't see the eyes of the children who are hungry for knowledge!

"yes." Ning Wuxian didn't refute, and followed the words just now: "They are not clothed, they can't even eat enough, and eating meat is like the New Year, you let them buy pen, ink, paper, and inkstone to learn to write, and sit in the school like you and spend the whole day studying, it will be difficult for the strongman." ”

"In the first few days, the children will feel strange because they have learned novel knowledge, but in the long run, how many can they keep the hardships and go to school regardless of the conditions at home?"

"Even if they can keep their hardships, but they don't have the recommendation of relatives and friends who are officials, and after passing the examination, they may not even have the ability to make a living, and at that time, they won't even be able to plant the land they rely on for survival, will they regret reading these useless books with you?"

The ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny.

Everyone has an environment to read, and it is not so easy to create.

To put it bluntly, there are different classes and ideological barriers.

These students in front of them, even if they are not from rich backgrounds, are at least people who have land and surplus grain at home.

I can't understand why this group of villagers, who depend on the sky for food, and even have to rent their fields, pay taxes just enough to eat and drink, and have no more than a few copper plates left throughout the year, would pull down their faces to deceive the ten cents.

Even children know about shame, don't they know?

Except for people like the drunkard man, most of the rest of the people clearly know what they are doing, and doing so will ruin their children's learning opportunities, but do they have a choice?

"A book is less than half a tael, more than two silver, a stack of withered yellow straw paper, five pieces of copper plate are needed, and the meat buns outside Jinling City are one copper plate."

Ning Wuxian felt that there was nothing wrong with the original intention of Cheng Yi's reward system, which was to stimulate everyone's motivation to come to the village to study.

"Ten copper plates is not a lot for you, but for an ordinary farmer, it is the income of an adult man working as a handyman for a day."

However, the crux of the matter is that as long as adults are not really reading for their children, they receive these ten copper plates, simply to get something for nothing.

Don't say give ten copper plates.

Give them ten taels of silver as encouragement, maybe in another month, a casino can be built in these ten miles and eight towns!

Human nature is so greedy, and there is no lower limit.

"A child from enlightenment to the examination of talents, even if ordinary people save flowers, it will cost a hundred taels of silver, this hundred taels can buy two acres of paddy fields, build a house, marry a daughter-in-law, do you think they even want to take ten copper plates for nothing, will they be willing to spend this hundred taels for their children to study?"

After Ning Wuxian finished settling the account, Qin Fenglan fell silent.

Cheng Yi suddenly realized, and finally understood why everyone took him as the wronged leader.

And when the group of village women saw that Ning Wuxian meant, they thought that ten copper plates were too much, and their eyes were like spitting fire, this young man who wanted to snatch money from their pockets.

"Young man, you look like you're also a rich kid, why are you so careful?"

"Blind with this good face, his heart is so black that he refuses to give even ten copper plates."

"If this kind of person is allowed to teach our children to read, I don't dare to send him to the village to study, so let's go to the back mountains to dig wild vegetables."

In the face of this verbal attack, Ning Wuxian's left ear went in and out of his right ear.

His face was much thicker than that of an unworldly young man like Cheng Yi, and he had seen a lot more spiritual attacks than this more ugly one, and he waited for them to squirt dryly.

Only then did he sincerely suggest to Cheng Yi and others: "Don't run a village school, let them grow savagely, live and die, be rich and noble, and let go of the helping complex, so as not to doubt the world." ”

“……”

Cheng Yi could understand what Ning Wuxian said, but he couldn't get past that level in his heart.

Do you really want him to watch these children and repeat the sorrow of the older generation?

Didn't he come here to guide them to change?

It was Qin Fenglan, who was quite rational, and after listening to Ning Wuxian's words, he got some understanding: "Brother Cheng, this matter is just a village school in the small area, and in the big one, it is actually the people's livelihood, and it does not provide them with an environment for reading, just like Brother Ning said, only read for a few days, and it is useless to learn, so what's the use?" ”

Cheng Yi's mood became even heavier.

Not to mention that this group of children has gained fame in the examination, and no one can recommend them to get ahead.

Even if he is famous, he is confused now, what is the use of him learning so many things?

Just to chant a few sour poems, or for high-ranking officials?

And then watch these poor children fend for themselves?

"Brother Ning, I don't want to give up yet."

Cheng Yi finally made a choice, looking at the children in the shade of the trees with resolute eyes.

"Even if they can't go to the village, I can continue to be their teacher, and as long as they are willing to ask me for advice, I will help them get their karma."

Cheng Yi knew his decision, in Brother Ning's opinion, he must be stupid, and even hated that iron could not become steel, thinking that he was weak and could be bullied.

But he just didn't want to be insensitive.

He might be insulted for not being able to give the villagers ten copper plates, but it was his own choice.

"At least, at least let the children be able to write their own names, understand some words, and not be deducted from their wages because they don't understand the content of the contract when they write it."

Many villagers who had encountered this situation had lowered their heads when they heard Cheng Yi's words.

A few village women who were shouting so much just now thought that when they first arrived, the rented farmland was pit and more grain, and the following year, the whole village scraped together two taels of silver to hire a gentleman, and asked someone to help negotiate with the landlord to gain a firm foothold here, and they all shut up.

When Ning Wuxian saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh secretly: Sure enough, in this world, sincerity can move people the most.

Just thinking about it, his sleeve was tugged hard by Shen Youchu, who was standing on the left, so that he could only bend down and put his ear forward.

"Ning Gongzi, you can find a way to help Cheng Yi again, he really ...... It's pathetic. ”

Miss Shen, who is beautiful and kind-hearted, opened her mouth.

Ning Wuxian naturally sold her face.

"Okay, I'm starting to think about it now...... Pregnant. ”
