Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 170 The Magic of the School

"I think this King Qi is actually pretty good. Last time we didn't have a conflict with him, that's right!"

After eating Li You's mutton, the third child began to speak for Li You.

The youngest ate the mutton meal just now. He ate a bowl of mutton and ten steamed buns for himself. While eating, he regretted that there was no wine. Of course, eating meat is already good. A small complaint is just Had a mouthful.

"It's pretty good. If we want to build a school for our dolls, according to King Qi's regulations, the two dolls in our family must go to the school. My God, our old Zhao family will also be educated!" A former old man in the cottage showed a happy expression.

"Father, I feel that King Qi is a pretty good person. Which prince can be like him. He has no airs at all, and he even eats a tripod of food with us." Liu Yuning was also impressed by Li You.

"I know all of this, but don't forget, we are bandits!" Liu Dageng reminded.

"We are bandits, but we want to be farmers! Going to the south of the Yangtze River is to be a farmer, and here we are also farmers. And going to the south of the Yangtze River is not our home, this is the king of Qi. Yes, I think we can Stay here." The person who spoke was Cheng Kui, the second head of the cottage!
"The second brother Lanlian's boat is about to arrive. You agreed to go to Jiangnan, and Jiangnan is better than here. Do you want to stay at this time?" Liu Dageng looked at Cheng Kui with some confusion.

"Brother, I know that Jiangnan is very good, but if we go to Jiangnan, our children will not be able to make a living for the rest of their lives. Now that King Qi has opened a school in Zhuangzhong, if our children acquire knowledge in the future, they can serve as servants of King Qi Get out, so they have a future.

Brother, you are a robber, and I am also a robber, but I don't want my two children to become farmers! "

"Second brother, big brother knows what you think, but don't forget that our identities are in danger of being exposed. If we are exposed, then we will die." Liu Dageng shouted to his old brother.

"Brother, I want to give it a try, for the children, they want to become scholars, they want to have their own future, so I want to stay.!"

Cheng Kui still expressed his thoughts.

Cheng Kui wanted to stay, for the sake of his two sons, although it was safe to go to Jiangnan, but after arriving in Jiangnan, he and his children could only be an unknown farmer. This may be Cheng Kui's life.

But Cheng Kui knew that this was not the life of his two sons. Tonight Li You's amiability and Li You's demeanor won the hearts of some people, especially the establishment of the school and Li You's guarantee, six and 12 years old Children can go to school for free.

This made this group of people who could not see hope at all see hope.

Reading was a very sacred thing in ancient times. Before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, reading and literacy were only eligible to be learned by nobles and scholar-bureaucrats, while ordinary people were not eligible.It wasn't until Zhou Tianzi declined that reading and literacy entered the homes of common people, and ordinary common people had the opportunity to read and write.

After the unification of China by the Qin Dynasty, reading and literacy has been completely distributed to the common people, but the class at this time is still very strict. Keqing, and this is where people above the scholar-bureaucrat class like to keep customers, and these customers need to have special skills, such as making plans, calculating accounts, etc. There is no need to worry about money and money, because these nobles are fully capable of supporting these guests.

In the Tang Dynasty, although "scholars, peasants, businessmen" had different statuses in society, except for the "scholar" who ranked first and gained both fame and fortune, the last three were either too hard or had no status, so everyone scrambled to be one. Scholars, with a view to high school.

The benefits that come after high school are not just increased power and status, but many other benefits as well.These benefits are also the reasons for the high status of scholars.

We must know that after Du Fu escaped from the fallen city of Chang'an, if it weren't for his status as a scholar, he would have been dragged into a strong man. How could he have the opportunity to write "Three Officials" and "San Farewell"?
Therefore, a school run by Li You really caught the hearts of all the people who were about to leave the manor. There are those parents who don’t think about their children, especially Chinese parents. They have devoted their lives to their children. , if there is a chance that their children can get rid of their current status, they will fight desperately.

"Brother. I also want to stay for my two little nephews." Zhao Hei, the youngest who had been scolding Li You all the time, and even wanted to fight Li You, said softly: "My elder brother blocked a knife for me and died. , leaving two eight-year-old children behind, if they follow me to Jiangnan, their lives will be ruined, but they can go to school if they stay here, even if they cannot go to high school in the future.

But with the ability to read and write, you can still find a job as an accountant, which is better than eating in the dirt! "

"Third brother, you want to stay too?" Liu Dageng was dumbfounded.

And when Liu Dageng was even more dumbfounded, it was not only his second child, but also the third child. In fact, many people present had already decided to stay, not for themselves but for their own children.

Anxious Liu Dageng shouted: "Li You said, let you shovel the wheat and plant potatoes. Have you heard of potatoes? Be careful to be deceived by him!"

"Brother, what can King Qi deceive us? The land belongs to him, and the seeds also belong to him. We will plant whatever he says, and King Qi also said that we don't need to pay rent to grow potatoes. How much do we charge? It is all ours, and we are given six buckets of grain per mu every six months.

His Royal Highness King Qi's demeanor and benevolence, I believe I am willing to stay and fight for once.! "

After the second brother Cheng Kui finished speaking, the others nodded slightly. Seeing that his brothers were determined to stay, Liu Dageng didn't know what to say for a while, but at this time, Liu Dageng's daughter Liu Yuning said: "Father, all uncles and uncles, should we contact Master Xu."

"That's right!" Liu Dageng immediately said: "That Li You will leave the villa tomorrow, let's ask Mr. Xu for his opinion tomorrow. Mr. Xu is a scholar with a wider vision than us, so let's ask Mr. Xu for his opinion. Agree with us to stay.

Then I, Liu Dageng, have nothing to say, so I will stay with everyone. If our identities are exposed at that time, I, Liu Dageng, will bear it all. "

"Brother!" Everyone was still very moved by Liu Dageng's loyalty.

Since Liu Dageng said so, everyone has no objection.
