The Notre Dame system is arrogant again

Chapter 548

The livestock used by rural people are basically donkeys, cows, and mules, among which donkeys are the most numerous.

Although donkeys are the weakest and eat less, cows and mules are stronger and eat more.

For farmers who have to save some food, the large appetite of animals is also a heavy burden.

As for horses, the good ones will be requisitioned by the Ministry of War, and even those that are eliminated will be kept by the relatives and relatives of the soldiers of the Ministry of War, and rarely flow into the people.

There is also the use of powerful royals, like Duan Yu and Duan Li, they all use horses.

There is another reason why country people don't like to use horses. They are difficult to serve. Horses are very delicate and have high requirements for food and drink.

Many people think that it is enough for animals to eat grass. In fact, they are wrong. People have to eat a few mouthfuls of meat to replenish their energy, let alone working animals, and horses need to be fed. pay attention to.

So when Zhang Lao Er came back on a horse, it was a very new thing.

The county where Zhang Lao Er is located is more than a day away from here, and it is called Wu County. By the way, Wu County and Zhang Xiaohua's town are not in the same direction.

Zhang's second child is a scholar, the person with the highest education in the Zhang family. He used to work in a private enterprise, but later became a freelancer.

The ancient government was similar to the modern one. It called for bids for any project. The difference was that on the surface, the rich households, gentry, and rich men were asked to contribute money and food, as if they were making contributions to the country, but in fact the benefits were all secretly traded.

Zhang Laoer used to work in a private company like this, in charge of money and food for projects.

There is a lot of oil and water here!
Let's put it this way, after Zhang's second child graduated, he was poor and white. He borrowed a place from his classmates for his marriage, and the quilt was also sponsored by his classmates.

At that time, the whole family supported him to be admitted as a scholar, and almost lost his old background.

On this basis, he entered a private company, bought a house, sold the land, and hired servants within a year.

Later, he started his own business and made budgets for wealthy households and government projects. He became one of the most respected figures in Wu County, and he realized the freedom of wealth.

Why did Zhang Qingshan insist that his uncle should study? Boss Zhang didn't object, just because of the example of Zhang's second child, he didn't get a Jinshi degree, and he didn't become an official in the court, but you can see that he is living a happy life.

In ancient times, looking for a job was actually based on academic qualifications. Tongsheng was equivalent to a primary school graduate, and a scholar was equivalent to a junior high school graduate. Those shop assistants and so on had to graduate from primary school, let alone other things.

If you want better treatment, at least you have to be a scholar!
Scholars don’t kneel when they see officials, they are exempt from tax and labor, and there is a monthly subsidy from the state. Even if they don’t have a job and their life is not good, they won’t starve to death.

People looking for jobs are either state-owned or private companies, but even private companies are among the top [-] companies in the world and have a lot of room for development.

If you are lucky and enter a state-owned enterprise, public institution or something, then even if you are not an official, you are still an official!

The county magistrate is not as good as the current management, and the current management is the official.

People at the bottom often deal with officials, not officials, which shows how powerful this official is.

Then look at those who don’t study and have not graduated from elementary school. They can only work hard to find a job. Great luck, the next generation of the next generation will still work hard!
It can be seen from this that reading is too important, and taking a test for fame is too important. Zhang Qingshan wants Uncle Zhang to study and take a science test!
Zhang Laoer rode a tall horse, followed by two attendants, and they rode mules, carrying some gifts, and entered the house very gracefully.

This is the second time for Zhang Xiaohua to see Zhang Laoer. The last time was when Uncle Zhang got married last year. Zhang Laoer came back with his wife and children to congratulate. Look.

Zhang's second child is called Zhang Jiao. He is small, thin, fair-faced, with a straight nose and triangular eyes.

The hair is neatly combed, and the bun wrapped in a piece of blue cloth is tied with a string.

Neither new nor old, but the quality of the light cotton shirt, loose and casual.

This person looks clean at first glance, even the cloth shoes on his feet don't look dirty.

Zhang Laoer got off the horse, Zhang Xiaohua noticed that he also picked clean places for his feet, so he guessed that this person must have a cleanliness.

It is good to be clean, but it is not a good thing to be too clean. Along with it, there will be obsessive-compulsive disorder, haggling, narrow-mindedness and so on.

Of course, that's not exactly the case.

Anyway, Zhang Xiaohua personally thinks that it is better for men to be rough, so that it is easy to get along with each other, because a man is too delicate and you are too tired to be with him!
Zhang Lao Er is also good-looking, with regular facial features, clear eyes, and graceful gestures, and looks like a golden-collared scholar.

This is decent people.

Zhang Xiaohua felt emotional in her heart.

Zhang's second child came back, sweeping away the sluggish atmosphere of the Zhang family, Liu's face showed a smile, Zhang Qingshan's expression softened a lot, Uncle Zhang was very respectful, and Zhao's restrained smile.

Except for the eldest Zhang who was recuperating in the house and did not show up, even the auntie came out to greet the second eldest Zhang at the door.

"Hello Second Uncle!" Zhang Xiaohua ran over and shouted sweetly.

Zhang Er was a little surprised to see Zhang Xiaohua.

"This is?" He didn't recognize it all at once.

Let's talk nonsense again, Zhang Xiaohua has changed a lot in this year!

Comparing before and after, they are like two different people, one is Zhuzhu, the other is Xiaoqingqing, don't blame Zhang Er Er for his bad eyesight.

"I'm Xiaohua, Second Uncle, don't you recognize me?"

Zhang Laoer was even more surprised.

"You are Xiaohua?! Oh, how did Xiaohua become like this?"

"Has it become more beautiful? Beautiful?" Zhang Xiaohua asked hastily.

Zhang Laoer nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, it looks better, it's more beautiful! It's really a girl who has changed in her [-]th year. She has changed like this in just one year. Your second aunt even bought you a piece of fabric, and she will ask your mother to make a new body for you later. clothing."

"Thank you Second Uncle! Thank you Second Aunt!" Zhang Xiaohua thanked sweetly.

"This child has really grown up." Zhang Laoer touched her head and said with some emotion.

After moving the things into the house, Zhang Lao Er's two followers left.

"Let's go after dinner, what time is it today." Liu asked to stay.

"No, they still have something to do," Zhang Laoer said.

"Look, I left without eating, oh, really!"

Mrs. Liu personally sent the entourage of the second son out of the gate.

The mother named little aunt saw it, curled her lips, and said to the little aunt.

"Your mother-in-law is really snobby, the second son is rich, and she treats her son's servants like this!"

The little aunt laughed.

"Mother, don't you do the same when my brother comes home? You just ignore Xiao Wu and me when we come back."

The little aunt gave her a white look.

"You are heartless! You are married and you come back to eat my food and drink mine, and bring a man with you, what am I going to say!"
