Chapter 680 Fertilizer water does not flow to outsiders' fields

"At the beginning of a person, he is good in nature, and has similar natures, and has distant habits..." In Xinzhu Primary School, there were sounds of reading. Li Xiu walked in the corridor outside the classroom with a satisfied smile on his face. The Three Character Classic had not appeared yet, but in order to help the children enlighten, he still produced the Three Character Classic in advance and used it as a standard enlightenment textbook for the school.

Xinzhu Primary School officially started after the Spring Festival. After a period of rushing adaptation, the school finally got on track. There were three classes every morning and afternoon. Now it mainly studied Chinese and mathematics. After all, these two subjects are the foundation of learning. Only by laying the foundation can you learn other subjects.

During this period, Li Xiu was also very idle. The Tang Dynasty destroyed its biggest enemy, the Turks. There was no enemy outside that could threaten the Tang Dynasty. It was even more resting and recuperating inside. With the promotion of high-yield crops such as corn and sweet potatoes, I believe that it will not take long to make food a problem that has troubled the Tang Dynasty. Even now, some ministers in the court have suggested that the ban on alcohol be released.

The court was fine, and Li Xiu's family was even more comfortable. The only problem was that after the mother Yi gave birth to Le'an, Princess Pingyang also wanted a daughter, but the fact that she had a child was uncontrollable, so Li Xiu could only try her best. In addition, Yue Chan was officially taken as a concubine, and she also expressed her desire for children in private, which made happiness and troublesome, and even had to take some supplements to nourish her body.

The morning class ended soon. As a rapid school bell rang, the children in each classroom rushed out cheerfully after saluting to the husband. After all, good luck is the nature of the child. Even if someone likes to learn, he will feel bored if he sits in the classroom all morning. What's more, the children are growing up and are already hungry at this time, so after leaving the classroom, these children almost rushed to the cafeteria like a swarm.

The canteen is the largest building in the school. After all, it needs to accommodate hundreds of teachers and students to eat, and sometimes it can serve as a conference hall. However, there are only tables and chairs in the canteen, and everyone must stand when eating. This is not because Li Xiu is reluctant to buy chairs by pressing the door, but eating while standing is actually healthier than sitting. In addition, it will also make people eat faster, and it also saves space. It can be said that it can be counted at one fell swoop.

Li Xiu never stings with eating this aspect. The food standards in the school are also very high, and there will be meat almost every meal. This is almost the standard for the cavalry in the army. For this, even the mountain Changtian Chop in the school is too luxurious, but Li Xiu thinks it is normal. If it were not for the conditions, he even wanted to meet the standard of one cup of milk per day for each child. However, there was no dairy farm in the Tang Dynasty, and even if he had money, he could not buy so much milk.

However, although they are willing to spend money on food, there is a requirement, that is, waste is prohibited. When the students are eating, there will be several men with tough looks on patrol in the aisle of the canteen. They used to be guards of the royal palace, but they retired due to injuries or age. Li Xiu arranged for them to go to school to be physical education teachers. After all, students cannot only know how to study, and they must have a good body, so physical education classes are also necessary.

In addition to teaching sports, these physical education teachers also have another task, which is to inspect during meals. If existing students waste food or do not finish eating, they will be scolded immediately. In severe cases, they will even be banned from eating. Of course, most of the schools are children from poor families. Even if Wuzhizhuang is rich, they were mostly poor people in the past, so these children know the wealth of food and dare not waste it easily.

In fact, in the Tang Dynasty, from emperors to people, they all had a sense of awe of food. In the first lesson after their children became sensible, they were almost always educated to waste food, even a single pill was not enough. This is mainly because the grain yield was not high at this time, and famine was often born. At this time, food was a life-saving thing, so no one dared to waste it easily. For example, many students in later generations ate half of it and poured half of it. In the Tang Dynasty, no one had to do anything. His parents alone had to beat him to death.

Since he graduated from school in later generations, Li Xiu has never eaten school meals again. At this time, he saw that the students were eating very delicious. He was on a whim and simply gave him a serving. However, after eating a few bites, he felt a little regretful. It was not that it was unpalatable. In fact, the school meals were almost the smell of a big pot of rice, which was very similar to those in the army. Li Xiu had just returned from the north for a few months. Now eating the meals in the school reminded him of the hard days he spent on the grassland.

However, the rules in the cafeteria were set by Li Xiu himself. Since he had to eat, he had to finish it. Fortunately, although he was sly-mouthed, he was not a spoiled person. He stuffed these foods into his stomach in a few seconds, and then he said goodbye to Tian Chou and left.

When Li Xiu had just returned home, Yue Chan immediately brought tea and asked, "Why did you come back so late? Have you ever had a meal?"

"No need, I've eaten in the school, but the meals in the school are really similar to those in the army. They suddenly reminded me of the days we were on the grassland." Li Xiu picked up the tea and took a sip of it and said with a smile.

When Li Xiu mentioned his days on the grassland, Yue Chan also showed a look of nostalgia. Although those days were very hard, they gave them the opportunity to get along alone. It was also there that the two of them finally made the last step. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little shy. After all, she took the initiative that day.

"By the way, I heard you want to have an idea for school?" At this time, Li Xiu suddenly thought of something and asked Yuechan with a smile.

"Look at what my husband said, what is the idea of ​​starting a school? The school is originally owned by our family, and our family has always lacked people in their business. It's okay for ordinary people. The key is that it's too difficult to find talents who can write and calculate. It just so happens that there are some older students in our school. They also need to do something after they finish their studies. As the saying goes, the wealth will not flow to outsiders. Instead of being cheaper to others, it's better to be cheaper to ourselves." Yuechan said with a blank look when she heard Li Xiu's words.

It turned out that after the school started in Xinzhu School, Yue Chan and Yi Niang saw the opportunity and immediately sent someone to recruit a group of students from the school. Of course, they still need to study in the school now, but after they finish their studies, they can enter the business of Li Xiu’s family to do things. This is equivalent to Yue Chan and the others giving these students in advance. Now, there is no fear of no one being available in business in the future. Moreover, these people are all tenants from Li Xiu’s family, and they are also aware of their roots and are more at ease when using them.

"Haha, I don't object to your recruitment, but you can't be too impatient. If they are willing to study for a few more years, don't urge these students." Li Xiu laughed at this, and then he reminded him that he was worried that Yuechan would be anxious to ask for people and would urge the students to leave the school early, which is not a good thing for the students.

"Don't worry, husband, we won't do things like killing chickens and getting eggs. Moreover, we recruited older students in the school in advance, most of them are over the 14th and 5th. At their age, most of them are unlikely to take the Jinshi exam. I guess they will come out to do things after a few years of study, which is exactly what we want." Yuechan immediately spoke up.

Li Xiu nodded when he heard this. In fact, as far as he knew, a considerable number of students in the school were like Yue Chan said, who had been studying in the school for a few years and had planned to go out to find things to do, especially those older students. Now Yue Chan booked them in advance, which solved their future employment problems.

Just when Li Xiu and Yuechan were about to talk about the school, a servant suddenly saw a quick step in to report: "Your Majesty, news has been heard from the palace, Your Majesty ordered you to enter the palace!"

"Oh?" Li Xiu was stunned when he heard the news. Li Shimin asked him to enter the palace, so there must be something important, but the inside and outside of the Tang Dynasty was very quiet during this period. What other important things could he need to enter the palace?

Although he was very confused, Li Xiu did not dare to delay. He immediately asked someone to prepare a car to enter the palace. When he arrived at Liangyi Hall, he found that not only Li Shimin was here, but also company chief Sun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were also here.

"See Your Majesty!" Li Xiu came in and immediately saluted Li Shimin.

"Don't be in harmony, this is the memorial just sent from the north. Look!" Li Shimin handed a memorial in front of Li Xiu and said.

Li Xiu also saw Li Shimin frowning at this time. It seemed that it was not a good thing. He took the memorial and opened it. As a result, when he saw the content above, he couldn't help but frown: "These Turks are really bold. They don't have weapons when they were escorting, and they dared to rebel. They are simply seeking death!"

It turned out that this was a memorial sent by Xingzhou in the north. According to local officials, when the first Turks moved south arrived at Xingzhou, some of the Turks secretly connected and attempted to rebel, including six tribes including the Muddy Waters Ministry and the Southern Mountains, with a total of more than 2,000 people.

The six tribes contacted secretly and then looked for an opportunity to rebel. They finally rushed to the camp where the army was escorted one night. Fortunately, they did not succeed. Instead, the escorted army killed nearly a thousand rebels. Now the remaining Turks have been controlled, and the local area in Xingzhou did not know what to do, so they sent memorials for instructions.

"Although these Turkic people's rebellion failed, they had just begun to move inward. If they had just started to do something like this, they might make people seize this matter and make a fuss!" At this time, Changsun Wuji spoke. As soon as he said that Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others also looked darker. This was also their most worrying issue, so they came to discuss it.
