Regardless of his injury, the village chief walked out of the crowd respectfully: "Your Majesty, no, no, I don't know what you mean?"
When the village chief spoke, even his tone was trembling.
After all, every word and sentence that Zhao Lei said next was related to the life and death of their village.
Zhao Lei said without doubt: "Everyone in your village must read and be literate next!"
The villagers made another noise.
When the village explained the ins and outs of the matter to Huang Fugui and others before, they had already said that the reason why the monster did not kill Cuihua, Yangyang, and Li Jincheng was because the monster liked to eat scholars and planned to train them into scholars before eating them. .
Now I heard Zhao Lei say this.
The mood of those villagers who had not knelt down in the first place suddenly fell to the bottom.
Sure enough, there was no luck?
Is the tiger demon going to wipe out all of their Li Village?
The mood of the villagers who knelt down and thanked them suddenly became complicated.
Are monsters really ruthless and do they really want to become their prey?
There is only one exception, and that is Li Ergou.
From the moment Zhao Lei rescued him, his family, and the village from the hands of the Black Tiger Gang, a group of demons that were more terrifying than monsters, his view of monsters had greatly changed.
Now when I heard what Zhao Lei said again, I couldn't help but wonder, was the Tiger King really planning to keep them in captivity and eat them?
Does the king have other motives for asking them to study in the whole village?
As for Yangyang and Cuihua, they didn't react much.
They have heard this sentence countless times in the past few days, and they have become somewhat immune to it.
Yangyang even sat on Zhao Lei's arm, clapped her little palms happily, and cheered in a somewhat leaky voice: "Okay, I can study with everyone."
Seeing this scene, the villagers didn't know whether to call her stupid or kind-hearted.
The village chief looked very anxious and suddenly knelt down in front of Zhao Lei: "Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to leave our Lijia Village a way out."
Zhao Lei was unhappy when he heard this: "I'm asking you to study, but I'm not asking you to die, right?"
The village chief heard the dissatisfaction in Zhao Lei's tone and immediately kowtowed and explained: "Big, big, big king. You don't know something. Our Lijia Village relies on farming for a living. If everyone goes to school and literacy, and no one takes care of the farmland, it will be ruined. There is no difference between our Lijia Village, Your Majesty..."
Zhao Lei was stunned for a while.
Emotional guys think they want them to do nothing but study around the clock?
I don’t know whether to say that they are not smart, or that they think their IQ is too low.
Since Zhao Lei intends to make the whole village read and write, he will naturally not be so hasty.
And the reason why he made this decision was actually just to prepare for a rainy day.
After all, in the beginning, a person is taught to recognize 100 characters, and the system rewards him.
And now 10 people can read 1,000 words.
Who knows after completing this task, will there be another task for 100 people or 1,000 people?
That's why Zhao Lei decided to fight to the end.
"Don't worry, I will let you study and learn literacy in batches. It will definitely not affect your farming."
The village chief was a little surprised that Zhao Lei was so easy to talk to?
After hesitating for a moment, he still said bitterly: "Your Majesty, it still doesn't work. It has not rained for a long time recently. The harvest this season is not expected to be very good. Not only do we need to find a way to collect enough silver to pay taxes, but we also need to prepare Food, firewood, and clothing for the winter. If everyone really wants to go to school, our Lijia Village may not be able to survive this winter..."
Zhao Lei cursed in his heart: Damn it, is it so troublesome to read a book?
However, the impatience quickly turned into joy.
Because the system actually sounded a series of prompts.
[It is detected that Lijia Village is facing a crisis of annihilation. Help Lijia Village solve the drought problem and you can get rewards. 】
[Help Lijiacun solve the tax payment problem and get rewards. 】
[Help Lijia Village solve the food problem and get rewards. 】
[Help Lijiacun solve the problem of keeping out the cold and get rewards. 】
[Help Lijiacun survive this winter and get rewards. 】
Zhao Lei immediately patted his chest boldly: "It's okay, I will solve these problems! Just listen to my instructions and go to school and become literate!"
Hearing Zhao Lei's heroic words, everyone in Lijia Village suddenly felt incredible!
Did the tiger demon intend to drive them all away?
Can the tiger demon really solve these problems?
If the tiger demon can really help them solve these problems, can their Lijia Village continue?
The village chief looked very excited and said in disbelief: "Big, big, king! Are you serious? Can you really help our village solve these problems?"
As he said that, the village chief suddenly got so excited that he kowtowed again: "Your Majesty, if you can really help our Lijia Village survive this winter and let Lijia Village continue, I must study hard! Become a scholar as soon as possible! Volunteer your life. , to satisfy the King! And on behalf of the whole village, I promise to the King that in the future, I will provide you with scholars who are satisfied with the King!"
With the village chief taking the lead.
The other villagers also knelt down and kowtowed one by one, agreeing with the village chief's proposal.
After all, everyone knows very well that if there is no accident, this winter in their village will probably be very difficult.
Whether he will starve to death or freeze to death is a question.
And they also have to face exploitation by the court. Or bullying by some rogue gang.
If Zhao Lei can really help them survive this winter safely, so that the next generation can grow up and pass it on. Those of them who are parents or the older generation in the village are still willing to sacrifice.
No, this may not be considered a sacrifice anymore.
Instead, he worshiped Zhao Lei as a god and offered sacrifices voluntarily.
"I beg your Majesty to have mercy!"
"I beg your Majesty to have mercy!"
He was judging people by their appearance again, so Zhao Lei didn't bother to explain so much to them. Anyway, Zhao Lei also needed to maintain a certain degree of deterrence to make them listen, so he simply let this misunderstanding continue: "Okay, okay! Everyone stand up! I'm hurt. Yes, go back to recuperate and rest. If you are not injured, continue to do your work. In short, after I understand the situation in your village clearly, I will start assigning tasks. Just remember to be prepared!
You are the village chief, right? Get up, take me to your home, and tell me carefully about the situation in your village.
And you, reader! Come with you too! "
At this time, Li Ergou walked up to Zhao Lei with a longing face.
Zhao Lei saw that he was so sincere and that he really needed a human spokesperson who was loyal to him, so he said, "You can come with us too."
Li Ergou bowed excitedly: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Zhao Lei put Yang Yang down: "You stinky girl, you are still reluctant to come down, are you? Do you believe I will spank you?"
Yangyang laughed loudly and ran back to her mother and sister.
