Leisurely ancient daily life

Chapter 245
After a while, Lin Feng also brought a lot of long benches and small wooden stools, and distributed the stools to the older villagers.

There are actually a lot of stools under the tree here, and no one takes them back on weekdays, and they are reserved for people from Lihua Village to sit on.

After all, many people come here to enjoy the shade, chat, play chess and so on on weekdays at the old banyan tree.

There are also two sets of stone tables and benches under the banyan tree for people to rest on, but obviously these are not enough.

That's why Lin Feng took people to fetch the chairs and stools at this moment, and people couldn't help but thank them one after another.

The Lin family is such a nice person. They are not only responsible, but also considerate. They will not look down on outsiders like them just because they are the original owners of this place.

It is precisely because of this that so many people support and recognize the Lin family.

After everyone was seated, Lin Feng went to inform some remote people. One or two people had to come, lest they didn't know about it, and Uncle Lin also started to get into the topic.

I just looked around at the villagers, and then said with a smile: "Tell me first how to spend the 500 taels of silver. I'll see who makes sense. If we all agree, we will do it. If it doesn't work, then Listen to me, how about it?"

The villagers in Lihua Village just smiled and evaded: "Uncle Lin, we all believe in you, so just tell us what to do."

Others also echoed: "Yes, yes, just do as you say, we will all listen to you."

There were some young people who were dissatisfied with the Lin family before, but after experiencing this turmoil, they are really convinced by Uncle Lin's family.

In addition, most of the decisions made by Uncle Lin are correct, so he is naturally convinced.

Seeing them so trusting, Lei Ran was also happy for Uncle Lin.

Sure enough, seeing them like this, Uncle Lin was also happy in his heart, and he just smiled and said, "Well, since this is the case, I will talk about it, and if you have any ideas, you can also tell me about it, and we will add up together."

Everyone smiled and agreed.

Seeing everyone agreed, Uncle Lin said slowly, "I mean, the 500 taels of silver will be divided equally into two shares." Uncle Lin said so.

Seeing that everyone was listening patiently, he smiled kindly and said, "One of these is 250 taels of silver, and we use it to open a school. The children in our village are not young now. A few days ago There are quite a few people who get married, and I'm afraid there will be more children in two years."

"If there is a school in our village, the children will be able to read and write, not to mention anything else, take a look, in our village or elsewhere, which one is better at being literate than illiterate?"

"Now that we have the conditions, naturally we can't wrong the younger generation. With the 250 taels of silver, there is still some left in the school, and we can entrust Erzhuang to find some cheaper paper, pen and ink. Practice with charcoal and wooden boards first, and when you know how to recognize characters, let's practice writing with a brush."

"There is a school in my village, and the children don't have to spend time going to the town, and they don't have to pay any tuition fees. They go to school on weekdays, and they don't miss helping the family after school."

"In short, it is to try to let the children go to school to read and write. Can you tell me if this can be done?"

When Uncle Lin talked about this, the smile on his face never faded. The people in the village can spread their branches and leaves, and more children are also lively. Isn't the future of Lihua Village relying on these young people?
From generation to generation, it has always been that way.

When everyone saw Uncle Lin talking about this, they couldn't help smiling. They naturally thought the same way. Although they said they disliked their own children, who doesn't like their own children?

Uncle Lin's suggestion made them very excited, I have to say.

If it weren't for that condition, no one would want their children to go to school.

It's just that the school here has to go to the town, and the cost is not small. If there is a school in the village, it would be the best. Just thinking about it makes people's blood boil.

So everyone echoed, "Uncle Lin did a good job!!"

"That's right, if we need to contribute, we will not be hypocritical."

"Yeah, save as much as you can. After all, you can buy school materials. We can't do books and paper, but we can still do hard work."

"Yes, yes," the men all expressed their opinions one after another.

"Let's add me, my child is also very skinny, don't ask him for anything else, if he can read some words, I will be thankful." A man also scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.

And the women are even more happy, who doesn't look forward to their children's future, haven't you heard that Liang Kuan from the Liang family is going to be a scholar?
If you pass the exam, it will be terrible, if you go up the exam, you will be an official, and you will be very prestigious.

Now that Uncle Lin gave such news is also an opportunity, they are naturally excited.

But after all, it is the woman who is more careful, and someone asked: "What about the teacher? How can the children learn without a teacher?"

Uncle Lin nodded and smiled when he heard this, "It's not urgent. Let's find it first. Before we find it, let me teach the enlightenment. Do you think it will work?"

Everyone came to their senses when they heard this, and the woman even slapped her thigh, and said cheerfully, "Hey, why did I forget, our Uncle Lin was born as a child!!"

Following the exclamation of the woman, everyone also reacted, and all laughed and said yes.

Uncle Lin dealt with trivial matters for them every day, and they almost forgot that he was also a child.

After they reacted, everyone said straightly that it would be great to have Uncle Lin as an enlightenment.

There are also juniors who have a good relationship with Uncle Lin, who couldn't help but say: "Uncle Lin, then you don't have to be tired, you are entangled in daily trivial matters, and now I will enlighten the children in our village. It won't be too much work."

When everyone heard this, they thought that they only cared about their own children's future and forgot to think about Uncle Lin, so they all smiled embarrassingly, and echoed: "Yes, it might be too tiring."

When Uncle Lin heard that the younger generation cared about him, he smiled in relief and said, "Yes, I am getting old too, and I will rely on young people like you in the future, so from now on, Lin Feng will take the position of village chief. , this child, as a father, I know him best, he is a good one, you can just trust him, ah, sometimes he is better than me, but sometimes he is still young when encountering things, and sometimes he may not be able to handle it It’s so good, I hope you all will bear with me when the time comes.”

Listening leisurely, Uncle Lin just passed the position of village chief to Lin Feng.

Fortunately, Uncle Lin has been taking Lin Feng with him these days, and everyone in the village knows about it, so he quickly accepted what Uncle Lin said.

After saying politely that Uncle Lin is not old or anything, he praised Lin Feng again.

"Uncle Lin, don't worry, we all believed in Fengzi, and there is nothing wrong with the children you teach." The one-year-old mother-in-law said with a smile.

Others also joined in.
