Chapter 1562: Please Call Me Mr. An (24)
"Thirty-seven dollars, a full thirty-seven dollars. If it weren't for my family's reckless cleverness, Daddy would have been pitted by those cunning people under the mountain again!"
Daddy patted the money bag hanging on his waist, which was bulging and full of copper coins.
He was so excited that his dark and thin face was full of smiles.
"Yes, it's really good, my family's Mang's book, it's really not in vain!"
Daddy doesn't know what the imperial examination is, and naturally he doesn't know that he can be an official after studying.
But he has seen the benefits of reading with his own eyes, and if nothing else, at least he will not be cheated.
Thinking about the young man's face that turned red into pork liver just now, and then even the shopkeeper came out to make compensation, saying that "the guy calculated the wrong account", and reprimanded the young man in public, and gave all the money to himself according to the real price...... Daddy laughed again.
Ah Mang was a little disappointed, "Daddy, I was exposed this time, what about before? Hmph, those people are not sure how much money they have cheated us?!"
Four-seven-two-one?
Those people are really clever enough, and they recite mantras like this, even some people who have read books, if they don't pay attention for a while, will also fall into their way.
That is, Ah Mang has just learned the multiplication formula, and it is the time when it is fresh.
And he wanted to show his hand in front of his father, so he paid special attention to the accounts reported by the young man.
In this way, I found out that he was tired!
Why did the young man do this? Of course, there was a treacherous side to him, but more importantly, he bullied them that the mountain people didn't know how to count.
The more Amang thought about it, the more sad and angry he became.
“...... Forget it before, who made us not understand this. ”
Daddy was silent for a moment, and then regained his excitement just now, "But we won't be afraid in the future." Haha, my family has read books, and he also understands those crooked people, in the future, no matter where he goes, he will not be bullied!"
"Well, I will definitely study well with Mr. in the future. ”
Ah Mang helped his family recover his losses, and he was also extremely excited, he clenched his fists hard, and secretly made up his mind.
A lot of money asked for the money he deserved, and the father and son were happy.
Back in the village, Daddy even said when he saw people: "Oh, it's better to read, the children will never be deceived by the people under the mountain in the future!"
"Let me tell you, my family's Ah Mang is very powerful today, he exposed the cunning mountain man in public, and asked me back more than 30 yuan......"
"You have to study, you don't learn anything else, you have to know how to do arithmetic! Ouch, how many times have we been cheated before, it's not that I don't know, I'm shocked!"
Daddy was foaming at the mouth, and Ah Mang stood aside, his little face was red from praise, but his small chest was very tall.
Without him, he is proud!
When the people of Mengzhai heard his words, they were all amazed.
There are people in the family who are studying in a private school, and they secretly decide: Well, next time I go to the city, I will also bring my own cubs!
In this way, the whole of Mengzhai gradually felt the benefits of reading.
But Anne continued to tell them with facts: Studying can not only recover losses for the family, but also make money!
After Anne had finished teaching simple arithmetic, she began to teach the children how to identify the herbs in the mountains, how to make them, and how to sell them in the city.
The mountains are rich in products and herbs.
In the past, the herbs were picked by those ancestral medicine farmers, but in the whole Mongolian village, only two or three people understood.
Anne saw that a large number of herbs were not picked, and the ordinary people in Mengzhai were living in poverty, so she consciously taught the students.
She didn't teach too profound and professional knowledge, but just taught the most common and common herbs in the mountains to the children one by one.
After half a month of study and practice, several older children began to try to pick and concoct their own, and then secretly took them to the city to sell them while the private school was resting.
Not to mention, although these herbs are the most common, they are also the most in demand.
It may not be sold at a sky-high price, but the amount is too much, and the money earned is considerable.
The kids are making money?!
Is it to go to the mountains to collect medicine, come back to dry, and you can earn back the money?
The money they earn is not less than what they earn from hunting in the mountains?!
The most important thing is that picking medicine or something, without delaying the work, the children can also get some firewood and wild vegetables on the way.
Don't delay things, you can still make money, and you don't get tired, this, this is simply a great thing.
Mengzhai's parents are boiling again.
They are no longer satisfied with showing off their children's abilities in their own villages, going out to visit relatives and friends, or catching up with the market, they have only one topic-
My son is promising......
My daughter doesn't have much strength, but she can make money......
My home......
Talking too much, the whole Mengzhai is famous.
Many villages adjacent to Mengzhai also inquired.
After all, the life of the people of Mengzhai is changing with visible changes.
Whether people are doing well or not can be seen from their clothes and complexion.
Mengzhai is developed!
And if you ask the reason carefully, it is actually because the children in the family have read books!
Reading, it is the exclusive privilege of rich and noble families, and they are poor and ordinary people, and they don't even dare to think about the idea of reading.
They are all low-level villagers, how can people in Mengzhai be able to study?
Someone else got to the bottom of it, and after some recourse, it turned out that there was a Mr. An in Mengzhai.
Alas, it's a pity that Mr. An has only one, if only she could come to her own village.
Mr. An can't be separated, but the child can follow him.
As a result, some people who have an in-law relationship with Mengzhai began to inquire about the news, and cautiously asked: If you are not a child of Mengzhai, can you also come to the private school to study?
Annie:......
Yes, it must be!
Her goal is to become a gentleman that everyone admires, and she is full of peach and plums!
The only one who felt awkward was Amon, not because he was afraid that the children of other villages would take advantage of Mengzhai, but because he didn't want Mr. An to be exposed in front of people.
The more time he spent with Mr. Ahn, the more Amon found him to be knowledgeable and unfathomable.
She seems to be like a treasure, always able to show you unexpected skills when you feel "almost".
For example, Zhuo Tsutsui.
Because of his uncle, Mengzhai could not completely control Zhuo Tuojing, and this magical method of taking salt still spread slowly.
Uncle actually wants to keep it a secret, but he also has in-laws, and he also has brothers in life and death, so a big well is placed at the gate of the village, and a large amount of salt is produced every day, how can the people around him not see or hear?
Even the Yuan Thorn Shi in Fucheng also heard the rumors and seemed to be studying countermeasures.
The surrounding villages all knew how powerful Zhuo Tuojing was, and they all tried their best to get Zhuo Tuojing.
Seeing that the momentum was unstoppable, Uncle simply took advantage of the situation, asked for a lot of benefits, and then allowed the leaders of the surrounding villages to take craftsmen to study nearby.
Don't underestimate the wisdom and talent of the ancient working people, as long as they are given the opportunity and time, they can create miracles.
Although Zhuo Tsutsui is exquisite, it is not uncrackable.
The craftsmen of the various villages got together, brainstormed and stimulated each other, and it took several months to create a finished product......
