Chapter 1489: appropriate price
Chapter 1489 The Right Price
A villager who happened to have a few five or six-year-old children at home still couldn't believe it, and asked in shock: "Uncle Li Zheng, did I hear it right? You said that the Murong family wants to help our village build a school? Our children Can I go to school in the village in the future?"
Li Zheng nodded and said solemnly: "You heard right, I called everyone here today just to inform you. If it is successfully completed, it should be able to start enrollment in a few months. Another purpose of calling you here. , that is, I have something to tell you. This school was built by the Murong family for the village. If you want to send the children to study, it will be planned for the children recently."
"I know, you used to think that your family had no conditions, so you never thought about letting your children study. Now the Murong family has created the conditions for you, you should take good care of it."
"Although some people think that their children are stupid and do not have the talent to obtain fame, but the purpose of reading is not necessarily to obtain fame, but also to change their destiny."
"I'll give you the simplest example. The people in the village who knew how to read were all helping Murong's family selling vegetables at first, but now they're all working in the shop. The wind can't blow, the rain can't hit, and they don't need to be exposed to the sun or the rain. There are also charcoal fires to bake in winter, and there are even work clothes to wear.”
"I have also seen the work clothes. The material is better than the clothes made by myself, and the monthly payment is also more, and the usual benefits are better than those who work in the fields."
"If you haven't read books, you can only go to the fields to work hard, and the money you make is far less than that of those who know how to read. When it comes to heavy work, you are so tired that you can't even straighten your waist. Those who are weaker, If you do a few days of work, you will become seriously ill and waste a lot of money in the family.”
"So, for the sake of the children's future, let's all think about it in the past few months. After the school is built, we can send all the children that can be sent, not to mention that they will be able to do easy jobs in the future. If they really have the talent for reading, It won't delay them. If the child is really promising, it will be a happy event to honor the ancestors."
If he had never dared to say these words before, but now most families have a lot of income every day, and every family can afford at least one child to study.
Murong Lingran also said in a timely manner: "Yes, reading can change your destiny, and I hope that if you have the conditions, you can enroll at that time."
The villagers looked at each other, and there were some expressions on their faces.
There is a school in the village, and they now earn a lot of daily wages. If the repairs are not expensive, they are willing to let their children study.
Someone suddenly asked: "Little Master, how much is Shuxiu?"
I heard that some schools in the city cost forty or fifty taels of silver a year. If it is too expensive, they can't afford it.
Murong Lingran smiled lightly and said, "We haven't agreed on this yet, but don't worry, as long as you work hard in the fields, your wages will be enough for your children to study. We will also consider carefully and decide on a suitable one. The price is guaranteed to be affordable by everyone.”
Seeing her say that, the man was relieved.
The rest also sighed in relief.
Bao Tongye from Baiyun Village asked: "Xiao Dongjia, then... can the children of us outsiders also be admitted to school?"
