The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 2265 One Land

On the winding winding mountain official road, there is only room for a carriage to pass.

There are occasional houses on the hillside and below the hill, all of which are made of loess.The vegetable garden is surrounded by stones outside.

Most of them are potatoes and sweet potatoes, not much green in sight.

At the foot of the mountain, the river flowing through is also turbid.

Occasionally, I saw a farmer with a hoe on his back, or a few women passing by on the official road.

The word "bitterness" seems to be engraved on their faces.

In this era of relying on the sky and the earth, their lives are indeed much more difficult than those in the land of fish and rice.

For the same harvest, they don't know how many times their labor will be paid.

Zhao Dongting also saw a child wearing tattered, dirty clothes and bare feet.

Their faces were chapped from dryness and cold.

Some of them were playing around, with carefree smiles on their faces.

But Zhao Dongting seems to be able to see their future.

Most of them think that they will inherit their father's business and work on this land in the future.

Their faces will also be darkened by years of hard work, with ravines and ravines.

One side of land nurtures one side of people.

The people here are destined to be difficult to be as moist as the people in the Jiangnan water town.

It is impossible to breed such gentle men, let alone those watery women.

Unless Zhao Dongting can change their lives now.

In the carriage, the three girls, Le Wu, Mei Qingzi, and Turandot, all had unbearable expressions on their faces.

Looking at these children squatting on the ground playing, Yue Wu said: "These children are so pitiful..."

They didn't spoil their children, but their children don't know how many times better than these children.

He is well-clothed and well-fed, he is famous as a teacher of Confucianism, and there are maids who accompany and serve him all the time.I'm afraid they will stumble a little.

Zhao Dongting didn't say a word.

He knew that changing the fate of these children was not something that the imperial court could allocate here.

The status quo here needs to be changed, only from the perspective of economy and education.

He got out of the carriage and went up to the children who were playing with pebbles.

The children all raised their heads and looked at him curiously.

It is rare to see people wearing such gorgeous clothes appear here.

They have only heard that there are many such people in the city, but they have not been to the city yet.Because it's a long way to go.

Zhao Dongting asked softly, "Didn't you guys go to school?"

A child timidly replied: "The old gentleman in the school is sick, let us rest at home for a few days."

As he said that, his eyes turned a little red, "I don't know when the old man will get better."

Zhao Dongting was stunned for a moment, "Is the old gentleman the only one in your school?"

The child replied, "Yes."

Zhao Dongting forced a smile, "Then can you take me to see your old gentleman?"

He could almost imagine what their school looked like.

Although he has been advocating the establishment of the school for some years, such a poor and backward place will definitely not change for a while.

It was beyond his expectation that there was even a school in this place.

The children are a little bit in trouble.

A child said: "But the school is half an hour away from here."

Perhaps they also did not believe in Zhao Dongting.

Even if they grow up in such a place, they don't dare to follow strangers casually.

Zhao Dongting couldn't bear to let these children lead such a long way.

Look up, there is a house above.

Pointing to the house, he asked, "Is this your home?"

The child who spoke first said, "This is my home."

Zhao Dongting said again: "Then can you let your father come out and show me the way, take me to your school?"

The child thought for a while and said, "Okay!"

Then ran towards his home.

Not long after, he came out with a man and came to Zhao Dongting, "This is the gentleman who wants to visit our school."

Zhao Dongting nodded to the man, "Can I trouble you to lead the way?"

He wanted to see what the children's school looked like.

I also want to see what kind of old gentleman can endure hardships and teach in such a place.

The man nodded, "OK."

Zhao Dongting smiled and said, "Get in the car, please!"

Then take the man into the car.

The man looked a little cautious, probably because he had never dealt with "rich people" like Zhao Dongting.

When he was about to get into the carriage, he deliberately patted the dust off his body.He rubbed the soles of his shoes on the ground again.

Then he said to Zhao Dongting embarrassingly, "Why don't I just lead the way for you?"

He was afraid of soiling Zhao Dongting's carriage.

Zhao Dongting chuckled, "No, please get in the car!"

The man just got into the car.

Seeing the three dancing girls in the carriage, I was stunned.

Where has he seen such a beautiful woman, he just feels like a fairy.

At that moment, his face turned red, and he jumped out of the car again, saying, "I, I'd better walk!"

Zhao Dongting dragged him into the car, "Walking is as fast as a horse."

The man couldn't resist him, but he was only willing to sit on the ground.Why don't you sit on that gorgeous soft seat.

Zhao Dongting had no choice but to let him go.

Along the way, from the Road of the Man, Zhang Polu drove in front, and went away along the winding dirt road.
