Chapter 2804 It's not worth it
Gu Yundong and Cai Yue were standing behind one of the windows. There was also a small bamboo forest, which just blocked their figures.
As soon as he stood still, the voices of the scholars came from inside.
"Mr. Liu, we really have no choice. We don't have enough pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the books are worn out. There is no money to buy the textbooks explained yesterday. But the yamen has not allocated the tuition fees. If this continues, we will all have to pay. home."
"Yeah, sir, when will you get the money, sir? We really can't wait."
"I didn't see the teacher today, is he hiding from us?"
The one called Mr. Liu should be the preceptor of the county school.
He looked very idle. He held a purple clay pot in his hand, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "What are you anxious about? The matter of arranging the repair of the money, Master Jiao Yu will naturally find a way. Don't worry, You are all students of the county school, and the teacher will not ignore it."
"But the newly arrived Master Shao is different from the original Master Xu. He doesn't seem to care about the county school, and instead is busy with the affairs of the common people."
"That's right, I don't think he will give out his salary to support the county school like Master Xu."
"Hasn't you been to the county government office last time? But you came back empty-handed. Sir, if Lord Shao really doesn't care about this, what should we do?"
Mr. Liu laughed and said calmly, "What should I do? If the county school is unable to make ends meet, we can only reduce the number of students. As for who to reduce, I don't know."
"Sir, you must help us."
"Yeah, sir, we can't go."
"Please accept this sir."
The last person took out a purse from his sleeve and hurriedly stuffed it into Mr. Liu's hand.
The other two also took things and put them in front of Mr. Liu.
Mr. Liu glanced at it, laughed, and put all the things in the drawer of the desk, "Don't worry, you are all learned people from the county school, whoever leaves, it will not be your turn to leave."
"Then we can rest assured."
Gu Yundong watched those people coming out, narrowed his eyes slightly, and hurriedly took Cai Yue out of the big house.
After walking far, Cai Yue tugged at his fist and said, "That instructor, he actually took a bribe openly."
"It's not really a thing."
Cai Yue raised his head, "Aunt Biao, since these people are so poor that they can't even pay for a bundle of repairs, how can they still have money to pay bribes?"
Gu Yundong smiled and said, "Of course what you get is much more than the money you give away."
There are a lot of repairs in the county school, not only these, but also pen, ink, paper, inkstone, books, uniforms, and other scattered expenses, which add up to a lot of money.
If you participate in the imperial examinations in the future, you will have to spend a sum of money.
And listen to the meaning of the few people just now, these fees are all paid by the county, and they don't give a cent, just study.
The county school is funded by the government, but the amount is limited, and it is impossible to include all the expenses mentioned here. That is to say, in the past two years, all the money was given by Xu Ji to Minato.
Xu Ji was originally well-intentioned, but how could he feed the appetite of these people.
Cai Yue was a little annoyed, "If you want the county school to teach students to be like this, then I won't go to this school."
