The three of them wandered around until the afternoon before returning to the village. The students took good care of their home, the pigs had been fed, Yun San had also taken a bath, the firewood pile at the door was piled high, and on the platform of the bamboo building
There are also some washed wild vegetables.
After Yun Zheng came back, he called all the children together and set up a firewood pot to heat hot water behind the bamboo house. He bought a lot of insecticides from Doushaguan today and didn't believe that the lice on these children could be removed.
It can't be killed cleanly.
Having lice always crawling around on your bald head is really unsightly. Firstly, it’s for your own sake, and secondly, it’s also for your child’s health, so as not to spread the infection even if you have a minor illness.
The adults in the village all ran out to watch the fun. Seeing a group of children being forced by Yun Zheng to jump into a hot water bucket and take a bath, they all blushed. Seeing that Yun Zheng brought more powder, they also used the medicine on the children's quilts.
Iron it once.
Facing a group of naked children, Yun Zheng gestured with a bamboo stick and said: "The journey of learning is difficult and unpredictable, and even if you work hard, you may not have good results. Therefore, before you start learning, I plan to first
I will teach you how to build a career. Only when you have a certain skill can you have the opportunity to use this skill to support you in completing your studies.
If you want to learn this skill, first of all, you must not have any lice on your body, not even a single one. Now you go back and I will check tomorrow morning. If I find a lice on anyone's body, he will not need to learn this skill."
Yun Zheng's last words were spoken in a sharp voice. Each of these children shrank their heads and went home naked. When they told their families the news with sad faces, even the old patriarch was shocked.
The biggest respect people in the village have for Yun Zheng is not because of his knowledge, but because of his ability to get rich quickly. A half-year-old boy who had no money and a younger brother not only built a village in just half a year.
The first brick house in the country used maids, which was almost a miracle in the eyes of the simple mountain people.
Everyone wants to know how Yun Zheng made his fortune, but no one takes the initiative to ask. This is a very taboo thing. Peeping on other people's tricks to make money is more serious than murdering parents. Generally, only people who can teach people the skills to make a living are
A kind of person, this kind of person has a special title, called Master!
As both a teacher and a father, one can only imagine how profound this kind of kindness is.
"Yunba, have you thought about teaching the children the secret skills to make a living?" The old patriarch was recommended by the uneasy villagers to go to Yun Zheng to find out whether this matter was true or not.
"This is natural. If you don't teach them how to make a living, I dare say that the knowledge they learned from me will be lost in a few years. Children in the mountains always need to go up the mountain to chop firewood and go to the fields to farm. At the age of eleven or twelve
This is the time for your baby to learn more. If you go to support your family, you won't be able to read and write, and all your hard work will be in vain."
Yun Zheng's answer was very natural. There were too few people in ancient times and modern times who could study while raising a family. Yun Zheng felt that why should he ask his students to do something that he didn't do when he was young?
To this point?
The old patriarch received a definite answer from Yun Zheng. He didn't even ask Yun Zheng what he wanted to teach the children. He nodded and left. When he left, he specially bowed his hand to Yun Zheng. This had never happened before.
.
When Yun Zheng saw that the old patriarch had left, he took out the centipede kite that he had tied up a few days ago, carefully painted it with gold paint, and bought some cinnabar from the drugstore, and carefully put these red dots on the centipede.
On the body.
A centipede kite is actually a series kite composed of small discs and a pair of legs. The production of this thing is very complicated. At first, Yunzheng and his students won the regional kite competition with the combined centipede kite.
The good result of first place, now asking Xiao Wugen for five guans for this treasure is actually not much at all.
Teaching these children skills always requires raw materials. For example, when making tie-dye and batik in batches, gray cloth is absolutely indispensable. Lime, beeswax, dyes, and salt, what else are missing?
I asked shopkeeper He, who specializes in batik business, that he no longer allows people to make tie-dye privately because he dislikes tie-dyeing as it is too labor-intensive. However, batik is a secret of Bai Miao people, and the ones made by the Han family are not always the same.
What's the matter, if batik ghosts can come out of Doushaguan, they can go to Dali to have adventures and transport strings of bamboo to serve as officials.
Since batik has appeared a long time ago, it is just a single hand-made production and has not reached grouping or streamlined production. As long as the technology is improved, Yun Zheng believes that it is not difficult to make the whole village rich. It is estimated that such a result is also the result of the old master.
What Bo would like to see is that after all, it would be beneficial to the Song Dynasty not to purchase batik from foreign countries.
They already have a simpler mountain trade, and interfering in the business of obedient people is not something a wise person would do. You can only choose one of them for anything, and you cannot think of taking all the benefits of the world into your own pocket.
, the only consequence of taking advantage of it is to get nothing. The style of moderation is extremely popular in this era and is faithfully implemented.
Early the next morning, Yun Zheng stood in front of his tile-roofed house, checking his students one by one. Although there were a few more students, Yun Zheng didn't care.
After checking the hair, collar, and back one by one, Yun Zheng let go of these students who had been soaked in potions all night by their parents. It doesn't matter if the clothes are shabby, but they must be neat and tidy. This is Yun Zheng's only requirement.
He took out the centipede kite and handed it to the eldest Cang Niu, and ordered him to drive the ox cart with the four older children to Doushaguan and hand the kite to the young master of the Xiao family, and then receive five strings of money from the Xiao family.
, it must be five guan of money, and cannot be less than a penny. If it is less, go to the young master of the Xiao family and complain. There is no need to give face to any servant of the Xiao family.
After getting the money, you have to go to the Hejia cloth shop to buy eleven pieces of gray cloth, then go to the dye shop to buy indigo, wooden barrels, and iron pots, and go to the drug store to buy a large amount of beeswax. As for lime and salt, it depends on their bargaining skills.
The people in the village did not go out to do any work all day today. Instead, they stood in front of the brick house of the Yun family and watched Yun Zheng and the children busy. Although they did not understand why the paper kite was worth five guan, nor did they understand what Yun Zheng was doing.
Why would Zheng give such a large amount of money to five twelve or thirteen-year-old children? Out of their trust in the children, they extremely hoped that the five children would bring back what Yun Zheng said he had requested.
Those things.
Near noon, the children came back and brought back a lot of things. Yunzheng asked for a lot of supplies. He didn't even ask the children how hard they had gone through to achieve their goals. He just ordered them to put down the supplies.
After that, we started to work, at least eleven large stoves for burning fires were needed...
Chasing one's own profits and doing whatever it takes is the instinct of profit animals.
