Chapter 370

The bright sun in May shines on the river, with waves and ripples.

The people of Jiangjia firm are moving goods in the workshop. In the past half a month, they have produced nearly 20000 catties of sweet potatoes. By the middle of June at the latest, the sweet potatoes purchased by the workshop will be finished. After all, there are three other sweet potato workshops in Qingjiang county. Although they don't do as much as her workshops, they have to pay 10000 catties a month.

And now there are some vermicelli in other places. It is estimated that in the second half of the year, the Jiang family's business will no longer be the only one. However, in the past two years, the Jiang family's business has made a lot of money in vermicelli, and last month, it also transported nearly 100000 Jin of vermicelli to sea and sold them to the surrounding countries.

At that time, even if the Jiang family can't be the only one in a large range, there will still be a profit for the Jiang family from the sea trade. However, this profit is not what song Xintong and his family can get. Let's make noodles honestly.

Song Xintong had already made it clear to the people in the village that although some people were dissatisfied with the temporary interests, most of them were still polite. They said that as long as she asked them to do it, they would do it, because they would work with her, and there was no meat to eat and broth to drink. Who wouldn't like it?

As soon as Mrs. Qiu came back from the field and saw song Xintong in the workshop, she sat down under the eaves of the bluestone house and had a rest: "the village school is almost finished. Have you gone to see song Xintong?"

"I just looked at it." From a distance, song Xintong looked at the village school built in the woods beside the main road on the other side of the river. It was built into a two-story building with six classrooms, a row of teachers' offices, and a place for accommodation and cooking.

The yard of the school is also surrounded. There are swings, slides and parallel bars, which are basic things.

Song Xintong paid the money for building the house, and her name was engraved on the wall at the gate of the courtyard of the village school, recording her contribution to benefit the whole village.

As long as the registered residence is a child in the Peach Blossom Village, they can go to school free of charge. The half year of the students in the outer village still costs 22 yuan, and the money is handed over to the village heads. They are paid by the villagers if they are not enough.

Now the master has been invited from the county. He is a scholar with good knowledge, but he is too honest. Teaching in the private school in the county is always crowded out by other teachers. He once opened his own private school, but there are only five or six students in half a year.

Lu Yunkai has talked with this master. Although he is honest, he still has some knowledge. It's enough to enlighten the children. When they pass the entrance examination, they can go to the county college to study.

The master's monthly salary is three Liang silver a month, which is one or two more than teaching in the county. Moreover, the village provides them with food and food, so that a family can save a few Jin for a year.

So the master came with his wife. As for the children, they had already married and worked in the county.

Song Xintong talked to the master's wife, who could also read and embroider. Song Xintong said that she would give one or two more chairs to teach the girls in the village how to read and embroider.

In this way, the girls in Taohua village will not be too shallow. Many little girls and their family's a-nai are full of swearing, which is very shameful.

She doesn't want women to be number one in the exam, but reading and reading can make people know how to be polite and sensible, so she won't be a village woman.

The lady is willing to. Originally, she came to help me cook. It's good to find something to kill time.

So up and down two floors, women upstairs, men downstairs, this can also avoid some, more convenient.

As for whether the classroom is enough or not, we will talk about it later.

"It's very well repaired." Song Xintong praised.

"Everyone is very happy to hear that the girl at home can also go to school and read." She said, "is that lady willing to teach her children how to embroider? That's the way she eats. "

"That lady likes children very much. As long as the girls who go there are sensible and obedient, she will certainly be willing to teach. She will learn calligraphy in the morning, embroidery in the afternoon, and accounting every other day." Song Xintong's favorite is to settle accounts. After all, many embroidery shops or cloth shops need female shopkeepers. If girls learn well, they will not be afraid of being abused by their husbands.

After that, the girls in Taohua village grew up, but they were loved by matchmakers. Everyone was willing to marry the girls in Taohua village. Who would let the girls know how to read, embroider and settle accounts? After that, ordinary people in Qingjiang county were proud to marry a girl from Taohua village.

Of course, that's the last word.

Song Xintong said with a smile: "like sister-in-law Juan, if they want to learn, they can also listen in."

"Can I go even if I'm married and have a baby?" Autumn old woman son surprised way.

"It's never too late to learn. As long as you have time and energy, it's useful to learn more." Song Xintong said: "in the future, the accounting of the village school will be handed over to mother-in-law Qiu. You must be transparent. You can't let the villagers have gossip."

When the village school is built, there will naturally be money exchanges. Village head Wan will write the account book, and the money will be taken by several reputable families selected from the village. In this way, the money and account will be separated and supervised to avoid being greedy.

"I know. Seven or eight of us are watching." Autumn mother-in-law said with a smile.

"That's good."

"By the way, Xintong, I heard the village head say yesterday that we need to plant a kind of fruit tree in our county. I don't know what kind of fruit tree it is. It will take five or six years for it to bear fruit. Do you think it can be done?

Zhai county magistrate moves so fast? Did the cherry tree come back so soon? I don't know how much I got or how much I can plant.

"Grandma Qiu still remembers the kind of fruit I sent to her a few days ago." Asked song Xintong.

"The fruit is delicious, but it's a little sour." Qiupozi responded quickly: "is this the kind of fruit tree that the village head asked us to plant?"

Song Xintong said, "grandma Qiu, you can have a try. Now the county encourages people to buy barren mountains and plant fruit trees. I think the county magistrate will try to sell them."

Song Xintong looked at the mountain forest on the other side of the village. In many places, he wanted to cut down trees to plant fruit trees. "Now buy half a dollar an acre on the top of the mountain, or mother-in-law Qiu can plant more than ten acres, or grow, eat and sell."

"Listen to Xintong." Mother Qiu remembers that there is a fast mountain on the other side of the river. "I'll go and buy the land there. I think village head Wan looked there yesterday. Don't take up the land for me."

"Don't worry, mother-in-law Qiu. I think the head of the village has gone to the county today. He has to ring before he comes back." Song Xintong will not be able to laugh or cry people to pull, "do not worry, do not worry."

"To the county." Mrs. Qiu was disappointed and sighed. Then she looked around and asked carefully, "Xintong, how much money do you think this mu of land can earn?"
