The two senior brothers were immersed in the ocean of scientific knowledge and did not notice Xu Yue's arrival.
In addition, she was practicing martial arts and her steps were light and graceful. It wasn't until she stood in front of the two of them that she said "Hey!" and the two of them were startled.
"Miss Third?!" the two exclaimed, and then looked confused.
Cui Yuan asked: "Is there anything wrong with Third Miss?"
Xu Yue nodded, sat cross-legged in front of the table for the two of them, and naturally took a piece of dried braised xiang that was placed beside the table for the two of them to eat as snacks, put it in her mouth, chewed it, and asked happily:
"Can you two speak in tongues?"
Huh? Why are you asking this?
The two looked at each other, a little confused.
But I still answered Xu Yue’s question.
Cui Yuan said: "I know the dialects of Hebei and Henan, as well as the Mandarin of both cities."
Guanglu Hai grew up in a border county and had contact with the nomadic people in the north since he was a child. He humbly replied:
"I know a little about Wuhuan, Xianbei, and Goguryeo. There are also the dialects of various counties in Youzhou. Because the pronunciation is similar, I can all understand them, but the words they speak may make the locals laugh."
"Enough, enough, these are enough. I can also speak some dialects in the southern Shu region and southern Yunnan. If the three of us add up, we are proficient in the dialects from all over the country!" Xu Yue quickly waved her hands to tell them not to belittle themselves.
"Right now, we have to go to Jiaozhou (Guangxi and Guangdong) and Yangzhou...but we don't need to think about it for now. The main economic center is still in the north. Learning these should be enough..."
She shook her head to herself and murmured something, but Cui Yuan and the other two did not hear clearly.
She lowered her head and pondered for a while, then raised her head and smiled at the two of them:
"There is a rule in our village that all workers are allowed to eat, and those who do not work are not allowed to eat. Even a child as old as me is not allowed to have free time..."
Cui Yuan and his two men felt their hearts sinking. Could it be that they were going to be driven away now?
The two of them placed their hands vigilantly on the natural science lesson plan book they were looking at with fascination, and waited anxiously for Xu Yue to finish speaking.
"You two, our school is about to open an intermediate class. Why don't you two go to school and become teachers?"
As he said that, he quickly added: "The main teaching content is what you have been watching these days, as well as the northern and southern dialects that I plan to add temporarily."
"Don't worry, our school can afford the salary... It's just a monthly salary. There are two classes, the classroom and the night school. There are six days a week and one day off. And there are only classes in the morning. The rest of the time is completely free. You can do whatever you want."
After hearing this, Guang Luhai breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a curious smile: "How much monthly salary does the third lady plan to give us?"
Xu Yue answered with a smile: "One day of class is worth 60 work points, and it is divided into weeks. If you go to class six days a week, it is 360 work points."
The two of them didn't have any specific concept of work points. At first glance, they just thought it was a piece of cake. After all, they didn't lack a pound of food for five work points.
Xu Yue saw the hesitant expressions on the two men's faces and knew that they had not yet realized the meaning of these work points.
Xu Yue calculated for the two of them: "A set of fine linen clothes at the canteen costs 50 work points, and a set of cashmere sweaters costs 100 work points... Let me put it this way, 300 work points can be exchanged for three pieces of fine linen cloth with a width of one meter.
One and a half pieces of silk."
Or in exchange for 180 pieces of tofu, two jars of fermented bean curd, a pair of glass cups, a set of white porcelain bowls, a small mirror, etc.
In the future, Aniang will build a red brick factory. After the first batch of iron ore is delivered, the arsenal will also produce various agricultural iron tools, such as needles, plows, hoes, kitchen knives, iron pots, etc.
Xu Yue didn't say anything later, but Cui Yuan and the others had already thought of it from their personal observations in Xujiazhuang during this period.
Valley
The two quickly made a calculation in their minds. The width of the cloth outside was only 50 yuan. One piece of Xu's cloth was worth two pieces outside. This was converted into the current price of 300 yuan for a piece of fine linen outside.
These three hundred work points can be compared with six pieces of fine linen outside, which is 1,800 yuan.
According to the rules of the Xu family, there are four weeks in a month, which is 7,200 yuan!
After getting this number, the two were shocked.
Only then did they discover that the cloth produced in Xujiazhuang was actually so cheap. It was so cheap that it was several times lower than the price of cloth in the outside world!
If the price of cloth all over the world were the same as that of the Xu family, wouldn't the wealth of the rich and wealthy families who were farming cloth have to be reduced several times?
Cui Yuan, who was proficient in calculations, raised his head in horror and looked at the little girl in front of him who was seriously waiting for his reply. Suddenly he realized that he couldn't even see through this eight-year-old child.
His heart was shaken and he could not calm down for a long time.
But Guang Luhai was still thinking about what he should buy with such a generous monthly salary.
Xu Yue waited patiently for the two people to reply. After they nodded, she stood up with a smile, jumped up and continued to class.
But he didn't know that Cui Yuan looked at her leaving back. The hands on his knees were clenched and loosened, loosened and tightened again, and his heartbeat was beating so hard that it almost jumped out of his throat.
After a long time, he convinced himself that he shouldn't think too much, maybe the Xu family made cloth simply wanted to make the villagers wear clothes at the lowest cost.
Xu Erniang walked in with the teacher uniforms prepared for the two of them. She clearly saw Cui Yuan's confused expression and snickered in her heart:
My child, you don’t think too much, you can even think more boldly.
She smiled at the two of them, put down her uniform, turned around and left without saying anything.
Cui Yuan and Guang Luhai curiously picked up the dark gray clothes left by Xu Erniang. They were similar to the clothes worn by villagers on a daily basis.
The upper body is a narrow-sleeved, double-breasted, stand-collar blouse with four pockets, and the lower body is a pair of long underpants.
Perhaps taking into consideration the two's unaccustomed habits, they added a straight long skirt with slits on both sides to the panties, which can be worn or not.
Guang Luhai remembered that Xu Yue said that this top seemed to be called a Chinese tunic suit. She saw it in the ancient books she found from the Zhongshan Kingdom. It was a court dress from the Zhongshan Kingdom in ancient times.
Pants and a straight skirt with slits on both sides are called trousers and coat skirt.
It's really a strange dress, but after trying it on once, the two of them really liked it.
The tunic suit tailored to fit the body shape makes people look more upright and upright. The metal cufflinks sewn on the cuffs are exquisite and noble, giving it a low-key luxury.
I'm a bit uncomfortable with wearing trousers, but they are more convenient for walking, sitting and lying down than a complicated and cumbersome skirt.
Guang Luhai simply threw away his jacket and skirt, put on a complete tunic suit and sighed: "I don't have to sweep the floor in a jacket anymore."
Cui Yuan shook his head and laughed. Looking at Guang Luhai, who was wearing the teacher's uniform of the Xu Family School and showing off his tall figure perfectly, he couldn't help but praise him for his good figure.
However, does this dress fit a little too well?
Moreover, they had just promised Xu Yue to become a teacher, and the next second the second lady of the Xu family brought over her uniform. Was it too quick a reaction?
They both thought of this at the same time and were stunned.
Why do you have the illusion that you are being deceived into a trap step by step?
