The house has green tiles and white walls, and the simple wooden bed in the house exudes the fragrance of wood. When they knew this was where they would live in the future, they couldn't believe their eyes. Such a place is much more beautiful and tidy than their original home. It makes them a little timid about the idea of living in it.
The handyman noticed that these children were a little intimidated, turned around and asked with a smile: "Why don't you leave?"
Several elders looked at each other, and one of the bolder ones pointed hesitantly and asked timidly: "Are these for us to live in?"
"Of course it's for you." The handyman explained with a smile. When he first learned about it, he was also shocked. He couldn't be better than these children.
"Not only is it here for you to stay, but it also has a change of clothes, your own bed and various daily necessities."
Seeing the stunned expressions on their faces, the busboy didn't bother to explain too much, waved his hand and said: "Let's go, you will know when we get in."
When they entered the house, they saw a dazzling array of various things. After the handyman taught them how to use each thing, they left.
The child who was left in the house carefully stretched out his hand and slowly pressed it to his bed. The dark brown brown mattress is covered with cotton padding filled with cotton. The outside of the quilt is cotton and the inside is filled with cotton. The light and soft touch made them retract their hands like an electric shock.
After a while, he reached out and tried several times. After they were sure that they were not dreaming and that everything in front of them was real, they lay on their beds and greedily inhaled the unique smell of cotton.
The children were lying on the bed, enjoying this unexpected and fulfilling day, when a series of hungry grunts came one after another.
Only then did they realize that the last time they ate was at dawn. It's already evening now, and I'm already starving before eating even a drop of rice. That is to say, they were just so excited that they didn't realize it.
By the way, eat.
The person just now seemed to have said, what should I use to eat? In this era where food and clothing are not yet available, eating is the most important thing for children.
fun and dreams. At the thought of eating, several people quickly stood up and looked at what belonged to them.
Inside a small wooden box, they found a stack of bundled papers. This is a meal ticket specially printed by Handu at the Baochao Lisu Department. It has the Ming Royal Academy and the words One Wen, Five Wen, Ten Wen, and One Hundred Wen printed on it.
"The Rebirth of Financial Giants"
Everyone, regardless of size, can get three hundred cash in meal tickets every month. After all, that's almost ten pieces of paper per day.
Just when these people were anxious with their meal tickets, the handyman came.
"Everyone must be hungry. My uncle has ordered me to take you to the canteen for dinner today. Please memorize the directions carefully for a while. You will need to go there by yourself next time. Or if any of you are literate, you can follow it. Look for the signposts on the road yourself."
The handyman took everyone to the dining hall. The steam was steaming from behind the huge dining hall, and the surging heat came out from the roof. There are neat rows of long tables and benches in the dining hall. It looks similar to the dining hall of the Banknote Bureau, but it is much larger in scale.
When these students walked into the dining hall, Han Du was already waiting inside.
Seeing Han Du, all the students wanted to go up and greet him, but they didn't know what to say. Only a few older ones had the courage to shout, "Sir..."
Han Du smiled and said to everyone: "In the academy, you don't need to call me sir, just call me sir. Do you understand?"
"Yes, sir."
Everyone saluted Han Du.
Han Du nodded with satisfaction. Seeing that they were holding meal tickets, he said: "This is the canteen of the academy. A meal ticket can be exchanged for a bowl of white rice or a big pancake, and a bowl of meat only costs three pennies. You guys. The meal ticket in your hand can only keep you full. If you want to eat well and eat meat every day, you need to earn it with your own hands."
"You have many ways to earn meal tickets. For example, those who are literate can teach people who are not literate how to read, or they can help my husband do some things. In addition, the academy will have regular exams. If you do well in the exam, you can also You can get corresponding rewards. Of course, you can also provide coolies. The grounds of the academy need to be swept and the trees need to be pruned.
You can do all of these things. "
Han Du wants a group of people who are educated, knowledgeable, and capable of being self-reliant, rather than a group of trash who are industrious and indifferent to grains. Therefore, the cultivation of their hands-on ability starts from the moment they step into the academy.
"You don't need to pay anything for tonight's meal. Just treat it as my husband's first meeting with you. You can eat as much as you want. You can eat whatever you want."
A smirk appeared on Han Du's lips. These were children from craftsmen's families. Although the life of this craftsman family has changed a lot since he took charge of the Baochao Lifting Department, it is probably impossible for the family to eat meat every day, let alone eat it happily.
In addition, the children of the poor become sensible early, and some of them may be satisfied with the meal tickets they are given. If everyone is proud of having enough food and clothing, wouldn't the purpose of training them be in vain?
They must first eat a delicious meal of meat. Only after they have tasted it can they remember it and think about making money eating meat.
And my reasons are also high-sounding. If this word spreads out about a gentleman inviting a student to have a meal, who wouldn’t give me a thumbs up and praise me for my benevolence and righteousness? Who would have thought that this is actually tempting these students?
"Thank you, sir." These students were not stupid. When they heard that they could have a full meal without spending precious meal tickets, they were naturally grateful to Han Du.
Looking at the various mouth-watering delicacies inside the dining hall window, can that student still hold back? Miraculously, there was not even a single vegetarian dish in the entire row of windows today, and all the pots were filled with various kinds of meat.
Is it still bearable for students to live there? They all waved their hands and pointed at the meat in front of them. Most people didn't know what these dishes were anyway, so they just pointed at them casually.
But with their current simple brain circuits, how could they think of the trap Han Du laid here? When they come back to their senses in the future, they will all be deeply saddened by their original stupidity. But now that things have come to this, and as habits have been formed, they have completely lost any room to resist.
But should I say it, the food in this academy is really delicious.
