The escape system takes me to dig for treasures

Chapter 74 This is the end of the world

Jiang Li was a little embarrassed, calmed down for a moment, and then asked humbly: "What is the difference between Mingjing Academy and Mingjing Academy?"

The pork stall happened to have few customers at this time, so Pork Chen patiently explained to Jiang Li, "Mingjing Academy has been open for a few years, and many people are still able to send their children to study there."

"As for Mingjing Academy, it was opened in recent years and the fees are relatively high. As you said, one month's maintenance fee costs five hundred cents per child. This is a child who has just started to learn. I heard that it is quite interesting. It not only teaches children how to read and write, but also takes them to play. This is what I heard, but I don’t know the details.”

"But just because of the high fees, many people have been dissuaded. And there is another point. Mingjing Academy does not accept everyone's children. Didn't you just say that? You are also asked to write poems."

Pork Chen said: "This is suitable for those merchants, like us who are still working hard for a bite to eat, who would be willing to spend so much money to send their children to play there? Isn't it just for sending children to school? Read and be literate.”

Jiang Li listened to Pork Chen's somewhat sour words, but she also understood that these were all forced by life, otherwise no one would want their children to live a better life, not to mention Pork Chen's family has five children, and if the pork stall makes money, then I can't bear the cost of repairing the beam every month, which costs several taels of silver.

"Oh, forget it, I've already paid the money, so let's leave it like this for now. If it doesn't work, I'll change it later."

After understanding the preliminary information, Jiang Li still had high hopes for this Mingjing Academy. This academy sounds like a modern aristocratic school, with education and fun, which prevents Jiang Baishu from becoming a nerd after studying.

Seeing the boss stop talking about the meat chopping knife in his hand, Jiang Li hurriedly said: "My father is watching over my braised pork stall, so I have to go back quickly."

After hearing this, Pork Chen quickly cut the meat and bones for Gracilaria.

Pork Chen was busy and said with a smile: "Little girl, have you composed a poem?"

"I don't know how to do that, but luckily I've seen it before and heard someone say something like, a blind cat meets a dead mouse, so I copied it, so I got away with it."

Jiang Li touched her nose and said.

"Our boy is as old as you. You can support the family, take care of your younger brother, and run a business. It's really amazing. That boy of mine is still reaching out to ask us for money."

Pork Chen and Jiang Li had been dealing with each other for a while, and suddenly the idea of ​​marrying his son home as a wife came to his mind.

"I'm thinking that if he fails to pass the Tongsheng test next year, I'll let him come to my pork stall to help. Although our business doesn't sound so glamorous, we have saved a little money and will demolish the old house next year. Build a brick house.”

Jiang Li knew that the Pork Chen family was in the city, had urban household registration, and had to build a brick house. Moreover, selling pork meant that the family had a lot of money.

"That's because your family has a reliable backbone like you. Our family is still building a new house. There are almost ten people in the family and we don't have a very stable income yet." Jiang Li said with half envy and half sigh. said.

"Let's not talk about it for now. We have to go back and look at my braised pork stall."

Jiang Li took the meat from Pork Chen's hand and hurried away.

Looking at other people's houses, they were all showing off in front of her. How could she still be in the mood to chat here? She had to go back and make money.

When compared with others, the sense of urgency immediately arises.

Fortunately, when I returned to my stall, the business looked pretty good, which made me feel a little relieved.

At first, Xie Kui cut and weighed the meat, and asked Jiang Youli to collect the money. After all, it was not easy for him as an outsider to handle other people's money.

Who knew, after selling two houses, they discovered that Jiang Youli didn't know how to count.

She was scolded by the aunt for not giving someone enough money. Xie Kui quickly complimented her, and the aunt gave up.

So when Jiang Li came back, what she saw was Jiang Youli cutting meat and Xie Kui looking for money. The two of them worked together, which was quite neat.

There were quite a few people waiting to buy in front of the stall. Someone saw Gracilaria standing not far away and asked, "Why didn't you come to set up the stall yesterday? My relatives happened to come to my house yesterday, and I couldn't find you if I wanted to buy something. people."

Jiang Li gave a brief explanation, "I had something to do at home, so I came over to set up a stall for a while and then came back. Seeing that there were no people on the street, I took it back to eat at home."

I don’t know if I didn’t come to set up the stall yesterday, but there were so many people buying braised pork today, and the meat I prepared was sold out in no time.

Jiang Youli, Xie Kui, and Jiang Li were all very happy, "When our new house is built, we can sell more. Let's see if we can get some chickens, ducks, and geese to braise and sell." "

Jiang Li now earns two taels of silver a day from selling braised pork. The whole Yunzhou City is so big, if the stall is spread out, it will definitely make more than this amount of money a day, and it can sell more.

"I can help you find out."

Xie Kui volunteered and said that asking for information was one of the basic skills of their guards, and Xie Kui still had some confidence in him.

Seeing Jiang Li looking at him, Jiang Youli thought for a while and couldn't think of anything to do, so he said, "I'll do whatever you ask me to do, okay?"

"Okay! As long as you say so, that's all." Jiang Lei said, "When the new house is built, our whole family will have to do a literacy program."

"What literacy?"

Jiang Youli and Xie Kui were both a little puzzled.

"Eradicate illiteracy. You said you want to do business. Even if you are illiterate, you must at least be able to do arithmetic, right?"

When closing the stall, Xie Kui explained to Jiang Li why his and Jiang Youli's jobs were changed.

Jiang Youli was out of breath and said, "It's nonsense. I'm already quite old, and I still want to do this?"

As he said that, he turned his head away and did not look at Jiang Li.

After being silent for a while, he took a sneak peek and saw that Jiang Li was still staring at him and pursed his lips. Jiang Youli had no choice but to give in, "Okay, okay, I'll just follow along and learn from him."

"So reluctant? Oh, forget it, who am I doing it for? It's not all for the good of this family. It's really not easy for me. If you don't want to, then forget it. At worst, I won't be able to survive by then."

Jiang Li walked silently in front, looking very depressed.

Xie Kui patted Jiang Youli on the shoulder, "Brother, you're a little too much. Look how much you hurt Ah Li's heart and make it so difficult for Ah Li. Ah Li is not doing it for herself. Go quickly and make a promise to Ah Li. one time."

Jiang Youli was a little hesitant, but Xie Kui pushed him. Jiang Youli took advantage of the situation and stepped forward and quickly assured Jiang Li: "Ali, dad will learn. Dad will definitely learn. What do you think of learning? Dad listens to you. In our family I know that the life I can live like this now is all thanks to you."
