At the end of October, Zhao State once again ushered in a major event. Schools in all counties and counties in Hetao officially opened, and the first batch of students entered the school gates under the spotlight. Ban
After nearly a year of development, although the once desolate Hetao has not yet turned into a truly fertile land, it has begun to take on some prosperity.
Looking around, you can see fertile fields, with patches of winter wheat standing tall and tall under the cold wind, exuding infinite vitality, like children rushing to school, bringing new hope to the State of Zhao.
Even though Zhao Guo repeatedly promised that he would build schools for everyone so that children could read and write, in fact, everyone did not trust him very much.
It wasn't until they actually saw the government summoning them to build the academy and receiving the specific time for sending their children to the academy that everyone felt relieved.
At this moment, the entrance of every school is full of people. Some are sending their children to school, while others are curious about what the college looks like and come to take a look.
It's almost November, and the weather is already very cold, with snowflakes already falling in some places in the Hetao.
But everyone's hearts are extremely hot. With three parts apprehension, three parts excitement and four parts expectation, while looking at the college, they whisper to their children that they must study hard and not be like their parents, who have no future and can only study hard.
Digging in the soil. Board
Every day I face the loess and turn my back to the sky, my back becomes more and more curved, enduring all the unwillingness and anger, but I can only sigh when no one is around.
The children looked around curiously, listening to the adults' teachings, nodding from time to time, wondering if they understood.
"After you enter the academy, you must study hard. I don't expect you to win the first place, as long as you can reach the middle or upper level. During the Chinese New Year, I will buy you a new dress and two pounds of mutton to replenish your health.
Remember? Goudan." Heizi stroked his son's head and whispered.
His brother who was a high-ranking official in the Zhao Kingdom told him that the king attached great importance to this matter, and even if some nobles objected, he would definitely implement it in the end.
Of course, even if children like them in Guizhou can read and write, it is impossible to compete with the children of the aristocracy, let alone reach the top, unless you are a once-in-a-millennium genius.
However, as long as you are not particularly bad, within ten years, or even within twenty years, students will definitely be able to achieve class leap, from the bottom to the bottom, or even to the lower middle class, and the best among them can even reach the upper middle class.
.
Such dividends will not last too long, and the later you get, the fewer benefits you will get. The earlier you learn literacy, the more benefits you will get.
As the first group of people to enjoy this opportunity, they still have to send their children to school even if they go bankrupt and go hungry.
After this opportunity, when most people, or even everyone, can afford to go to school, you can just throw in the towel to train children, but the effect will not be great.
Heizi didn't understand this, but he believed what his good brother Feng Ting said.
During the Battle of Changping, he had blocked an arrow for Feng Ting. The two had a life-long friendship, and Feng Ting would not lie to him.
Moreover, Feng Ting was once a Korean aristocrat, and now he is the governor of the Zhao Kingdom. He has won the trust of King Zhao, and his ability and vision are by no means comparable to him. A casual tip to him is enough for him to struggle for a lifetime.
Just like when he first came to Hetao, Feng Ting told him.
Because Heizi was hit by an arrow, his arms are not very flexible when moving, so he cannot continue to serve as a soldier.
Feng Ting told him that he could either stay by his side as a guard and, among other things, I would never let you go hungry if I had a bite to eat, or he could go to the Loop and fight for a future.
Although it was safer to stay with Feng Ting, Heizi was a little unwilling. He didn't want to rely on others all the time, so he finally chose to come to Loop.
Heizi trusts Feng Ting more than himself. Feng Ting said that it is right to spend money to raise children, so it must be right.
"I remember, dad, the child will definitely learn to read well."
Goudan is young, only seven years old. He has two horns on his head, a red face, and an old sheepskin coat on his upper body.
The sheepskin coat did not fit well. It almost wrapped Goudan's entire body, leaving only one head outside. This was a sheepskin coat issued by the State of Zhao. Each household had one piece. It had good thermal insulation properties, although it could still feel cold.
But at least they won't freeze to death, and last year they protected nearly 100,000 people from the cold winter.
However, the clothes seized by Zhao State were limited, and they could only distribute one piece to each household.
"Are you... Heizi?" At this time, a surprised voice came from the side.
"Ge? I didn't expect to see you here. Are you also in Changfeng Township?" Heizi turned around and saw a familiar figure standing in front of him. He was his comrade in the Changping Battle. He immediately walked away excitedly.
Go forward and hug each other.
The legions of various countries are basically divided according to regions. Both of them are members of the Shangdang. Because they were assigned to the same legion in the same county, they became familiar with each other after going back and forth.
During the Battle of Changping and the invasion of Qin, Feng Ting led all the people of Shangdang to join the State of Zhao, and their families also moved to other parts of the State of Zhao.
After the war, the two had not met each other. The transportation conditions these days were limited, and it was difficult to meet even in the same county, let alone the war that made them farther apart.
Both of them are married people, and they are not wanderers. They have nothing to do all day long, so they naturally have to run around for a living.
"Good brother, we haven't seen each other since we parted ways in Handan. I miss you so much. I have to go to my brother's place for a drink later." Ge solemnly patted Heizi on the shoulder, "How is your arm recovering?
Like? By the way, you helped General Feng Ting block an arrow, but that guy didn't care about you? I knew that guy was not a good person, don't worry, as long as there are brothers here..." Ban
"The general asked me to stay with him as a guard, but I didn't agree, so I came to Hetao to open up wasteland. Now my arm has almost recovered, and I don't have any problems when working, but it hurts when it's cloudy and rainy."
Heizi quickly said that he knew Ge's temper very well. He didn't care what he said and dared to scold anyone. Back then, he was hanged outside the camp gate by Jia Yan just because he scolded Jia Yan.
whip.
But later, because Ge's scolding was justified... Jia Yan let him go again...
As for being reused because of this, that doesn't exist. Jia Yan didn't punish him because he was broad-minded.
"I hear you two, are you all soldiers of the Changping Battle?" A tall man with only one arm also came over and said excitedly.
"Yes, you are..." Heizi looked back. The man in front of him was very tall, more than eight feet tall. He was very strong, with muscles all over his body bulging like hills. His clothes couldn't cover them.
Wu's evil spirit is by no means an easy thing.
If it weren't for the fact that the other party was missing an arm, Heizi doubted that neither he nor Ge would be a match for the other party.
