Early the next morning.
A man carrying a cloth bag and wearing a yellow gown walked lightly into the simple house.
"I only have one request, and that is for you to remember the words above, then write them down, and then read them to me!"
Lu Changsheng stood in the room, looking at the 'Master's students' in front of him.
"How old is the master? Why is the student so old?"
There was a faint voice in the ears, but when the middle-aged man had a straight face, no one dared to talk anymore.
The room was empty, and they, the 'study' people, stood in a circle.
Without pen, ink, paper and inkstone, there is also no place to sit down.
Everyone stood quietly, with serious expressions.
The words written by the middle-aged man were clearly one of the 168 words written down by Lu Changsheng.
"It turns out this is a pile!"
My heart suddenly became enlightened, and then I became extremely excited.
It was a long-awaited pleasure of harvest.
"That's a bit much!"
Not long after, the middle-aged man suddenly came to his senses, stopped a half-written text on the wooden board, and sat down on a chair to rest.
"25 words in total!"
Lu Changsheng looked a little disappointed when he saw the middle-aged man stop.
afternoon.
The middle-aged man picked up the wooden board, walked up to a boy, pointed at the words on it and asked, "How do you pronounce this word?"
The boy hesitated and couldn't speak, so he continued to walk towards the next person with a straight face.
"You come and read it!"
"May?"
"It's panic!"
Go to the next one.
The boy had memorized the pronunciation of "panic", but unfortunately, when the middle-aged man pointed at another word, he was suddenly confused.
This time, he did not continue to read out, but walked up to another little girl.
"What does this word mean?"
"rain!"
"Really-huh?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and looked at the little girl intently.
"Not bad! What's your name?"
"Lee Pumpkin!"
The middle-aged man said no more, asked a few more people, then put away the board and walked back.
"That's it for this class!" He said and walked out.
On the first day of studying, Lu Changsheng clarified and organized the 25 words.
While eating, Liang Hu came over carrying a large bag of steamed buns.
A boy from the Zhao family thought it was for them to eat, and since he was hungry, he went to get it.
Unexpectedly, a stick hit the back of his hand.
Liang Hu put his hands on his hips and kept shaking, with the corner of his mouth slightly tilted, "What are you doing! Look at you, how do you look like a scholar? How can you read and write like this? What a bitch!"
After scolding him, he put his stick on the bun.
"Two copper coins and one steamed bun! Master is not a good person. Teaching you how to read and write, and providing you with a place to live will open your eyes! If you want to eat, use copper coins to buy it!"
The Zhao boy glared at Zhao Hu angrily.
This person's name is Zhao Liang, and he is also a childlike figure in Zhaojia Village, but he doesn't like to associate with people with foreign surnames such as Lu Changsheng and Wang Heihou.
The anger in his heart was not because he needed to pay, but because Liang Hu's actions were too insulting.
"Haha, you look like you have a bad temper!"
There was a ruthless look on Liang Hu's face, he took two steps forward and grabbed Zhao Liang's clothes.
He was over thirty and in his prime, while Zhao Liang was only in his early 12s. How could he have any room for resistance?
He was immediately lifted up.
Seeing a hint of fear on Zhao Liang's face, Liang Hu frowned slightly.
"If you hadn't been—"
He seemed to realize that he had made a mistake, so he quickly closed his mouth and let go of Zhao Liang.
"This is Master's rule. If you can't accept it, go back!" He shook his head and said.
······
"I've lost four copper coins, but I still have 50 more! I can last for about ten days!"
Lu Changsheng did not get involved in Zhao Liang and Liang Hu's affairs.
I just paid for two meals of steamed buns.
Seeing that he bought two, Wang Heihou and the others also bought two.
"Chang Sheng, his steamed buns are a bit expensive. I remember that the steamed buns in this town only cost a copper coin each!"
Wang Heihou ate one steamed bun and looked at the other one with unfinished thoughts, but when he saw that Lu Changsheng and the others didn't move, he gave up this tempting idea.
"Maybe things in Fucheng are more expensive!" Lu Changsheng said.
"How much money do you have left?"
This question is more private.
At their age, even if they don’t understand, the adults in the family will tell them in advance.
But Lu Changsheng needed to see if the three people in front of him really trusted him.
“This is the initial stage, and you need to find people you can trust when investing!”
If they are not willing, then their plans will definitely change.
Fortunately, among the three, only Wang Heihou hesitated, but seeing that the other two had already said it, he still said it.
Li Guanggu has 38 coppers!
Niu Dazhuang is 90!
King Black Monkey has the most, and he still has one hundred and fifty copper coins.
Lu Changsheng understood in his heart.
Wang Heihou's family situation is better, and this time his family gave him more copper.
Niu Dazhuang and Li Guangquan have similar family backgrounds to their own, but their situations are also different.
Li Guanggu's family basically treats her in a semi-freedom, and giving her more than forty coppers is considered generous.
Niu Dazhuang only has an old mother and an older brother left in his family. The older brother has a deep relationship with him. If he comes out this time, he may wipe out all the family wealth.
As for Lu Changsheng, he gave part of it as a gift before, and later, he also gave part of it during the engagement.
That's why the difference in copper among several people is so huge.
"In the end, it was Zhao Xinghua who was harmed!"
Lu Changsheng sighed in his heart.
"Let's learn all the words first! Then we'll see if we can find something to do!"
Under normal circumstances, teaching a group of illiterate people to read and read more than twenty words would probably require repeated teaching many times.
Mr. Tian Tian just wrote everything down and then asked them to read and write.
Only Lu Changsheng himself could follow this kind of teaching.
Sure enough, the next day, the gentleman wrote another row of words on the wooden board.
Taught the reading method once, the writing method once, and the meaning of the words again.
Before leaving, do the test just like yesterday.
I asked several people in a row but couldn't get the answer.
The 'Master's Student' looked unhappy, but he didn't say anything. It was just that the expressions of the young men whose names were called were full of dejection. It was obvious that they had been hit hard.
"Sir, you are so strict!"
"Yes! If you hadn't spent some time learning to read from Changsheng before, I would have been scolded this time too!"
In the evening, several people got together.
Lu Changsheng gave them Xiaozheng to read.
Hearing this, he nodded and said: "Sir, it is a good thing to be strict. This way we will have more pressure and be more motivated!"
Wang Heihou muttered a few words, suppressed his irritation, and practiced calligraphy with a stick.
A group of people are working hard to learn more words. If they can't become Master's students, they can use this ability to find a job.
but--
"This thing always feels a bit strange!"
Lu Changsheng recalled Liang Hu's behavior and felt that it was not like an ordinary person.
"If the master really wants to choose a student, he will definitely not be able to find someone like this!"
No one can discuss this matter, so Lu Changsheng can only take it to heart for the time being.
"Anyway, you can indeed recognize the characters here. Even if it's just a game, as long as your life is not in danger, it's not a big deal!"
Lu Changsheng thought.
