In the courtyard of Gao Mansion, Ma Wu and his brothers held the tray with serious expressions, with the waist-branded official uniforms and provocations brought back from Shenmu Fort on it.

Gao Jin, who had worn the official uniforms of a hundred households, looked at the team standing below. He first took the official uniforms of the waist-baring ones that tested the official uniforms of a hundred households, and then clicked Qin Zhong, "Qin Zhong, I hope you will perform your duties in the future, don't let me down."

"Mr. Xie Gao's reward is that he will devote himself to his duties until his death in the future!"

Qin Zhong trembledly and took the pallet with the waist cards and prosecutors from Ma Wu. He knew that he was not popular, but Gao Ye still rewarded him with the official position of the Gao Ye. Even though he had always been timid, he also had the courage to die for Gao Ye.

Chen Sheng and the others looked at Qin Zhong who was almost kneeling on the ground, and they were not in a mood. Everyone knew that the most suitable person in Hekou Fort to take over the position of the test household is Qin Zhong with sufficient qualifications. If the second brother did not praise Qin Zhong, outsiders would be placed in Shenmu Fort to be the test household.

"A Sheng, you are the most calm among all brothers and have always worked hard and hard. My second brother is now young, so he can only give you a general flag."

Gao Jinqi left two official positions in the General Banners, Dong Bufang, who was in Gubei Village, and the rest belonged to Chen Sheng. Among the brothers, Chen Sheng could entrust a major event, and no one would object to this General Banner.

"Thank you, second brother."

Chen Sheng also stepped forward to take over the official uniform and waist tag of the general flag. He had told Ah Niang that he would naturally shine on his family's lintel in the future, but he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.

Next, Gao Jin gave Ni Damachao and Yang Dayan and others a small flag with his official waist tags, and left two small flags for Zhang Chonggu of Gubei Village and Wang Dou, who was sent by him and pretended to be a horse bandit first.

"Brothers, this official position is just a symbol. What we can really rely on is not this official skin, but the knife in our hands. In the future, our Hekou Fort will grow stronger. Not to mention a few small flags of the general flag, even if you can be a hundred and a thousand households, you can't say that you can be a hundred and a thousand households."

Gao Jin said in a deep voice that he had no intention of loyalty to the Ming Dynasty. Now he just wants to farm peacefully and manage Hekou Fort, so he wants to remind his brothers below not to be fascinated by the official position.

"What the second brother said is that this official skin is nothing, only strong soldiers and horses are the real ones."

Chen Sheng responded first, and his joy on his face also restrained, "So what if Xu Tong from Shenmu Castle is a thousand households? When we meet our second brother, we will be defeated."

"Brother Sheng said!"

Everyone below quickly shouted, and the initial envy disappeared. Everyone knew that the second brother and Sheng were right. On this side of the wall, there was a strong army and strong horses, and their strength was the most respected. That official skin was really nothing!

...

With Gao Jin's return, the entire Hekou Fort became a construction site that was excavated everywhere. In addition to the pig house, the brick yard used to burn bricks and carpenter workshops were all started. No one in the fortress was idle. Compared to the lifeless winter in the past, such a Hekou Fort is undoubtedly much more vibrant.

Everyone has work to do, even half-aged children have to pick up gravels and help take care of the animals. Of course, Gao Jin doesn't let these children work in vain. They also have their own wages, and of course they use snacks like malt sugar instead.

As for adults, they were happy that their children were also organized into teams to participate in various labor, not to mention that the high-ranking master was in charge of food, and they had half a day to teach their children to read, so they couldn't even ask for such good things.

Doctor Liu Suifeng has temporarily become a teacher at Hekoubao School. Yang Dayan excitedly took Ding Silang and his peddlers to Shenmu County to catch those traveling doctors and gangsters, and they will not be able to come back in a few days.

Fortunately, Liu Suifeng was very happy to be a gentleman. Since the Song Dynasty, the saying "everything is inferior, but only high school students" has been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Even if Liu Suifeng was only half a scholar, people respected him very much in Hekou Fort, especially after he became a teacher for the children.

All the classic readings of Confucian enlightenment do not exist in Gao Jin. He was a general teacher who had been supporting the border. He even used simplified Chinese characters. He also compiled the textbooks used to teach children from Hekoubao by himself. They are all stories and fables in plain language.

Although Liu Suifeng felt vulgar and unwilling after reading it, Gao Baihu said that he just taught the children in Hekoubao to be able to read and understand. He didn't need to be very literary. If he really taught these children the Analects of Confucius, he would be scolded as insulting his ethics.

This wall is not a place where cultural education is prosperous in Jiangnan Water Town. If you teach those children seriously, you may be laughed at as if they are laughing at, and you may even be scolded as a monkey, which is a shame for your kindness. On the contrary, if a wild path like Gao Jin is spreading, no one will care.

Gao Jin now gave the children of this village to the Chinese and mathematics. Liu Suifeng was more than enough to explain the plain textbooks compiled by Gao Jin in accordance with the textbooks. He even thought about commenting on the literary talent of Gao Baihu, which is the level of street-speaking and speaking skills. He really couldn't bear to read it suddenly, but he had to admit that the content of these textbooks was straightforward, simple, concise and easy to understand, and he didn't need to extend it. He could basically understand it by just saying it once.

Idioms like watching the sky in a well, buying a box and carrying a bead, waiting for a rabbit, all turned into vivid stories. Although it looks vulgar, the final refinement is true. Even Liu Suifeng has to admit that these children cannot study seriously anyway, and there is no way to talk about taking the imperial examination. So instead of learning some open-minded reading materials, it is better to use the fables written by Gao Baihu.

But when he was in the mathematics course, even if Liu Suifeng claimed to be smart, he found that he was not strong enough in the end. He just relied on his memory to be better than those children, so he memorized the formulas of the nine-nine multiplication. As for the subsequent addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, he had to listen to Gao Jin's lecture with Chen Sheng and others.

"Gaobaihu, sometimes, I don't think you are a martial artist at all, but a scholar. But you know so much, why is this article written so roughly... It's as light as white water, without any literary talent. It's such a pity."

After the evening class, Liu Suifeng said with a confused look on his face, "He is not a fool. He stayed in Hekou Fort for several days and found that this place is really different from other forts beside the walls. But he understood some things, and some were confused. Even Gao Baihu suddenly became blurred in his heart. The only thing that can be sure is that Gao Baihu has lofty ambitions.

But the more this happens, the more Liu Suifeng wants to know what kind of career this Gao Baihu wants to do!

"It's no pity. I'm a martial artist. I'm just for ordinary people to read this article. It's just plain and easy to understand. For literary talent, it's better to forget it."

Gao Jin knew the benefits of classical Chinese, but it was better to use them in practical terms, because it was more detailed and even if it seemed verbose, it was practical and practical. It was useful if the people could understand and understand.

"Gao Baihu's words are somewhat reasonable. When I was studying medical books, if the teacher hadn't explained it carefully, I would have been completely unaware of the meaning."

After thinking about Gao Jin's words, Liu Suifeng replied that he had read many medical books in the past, most of which were concise and to the point. Without the guidance of a famous teacher, it would be difficult to learn the key points. He thought about it. If he followed the plain language recommended by Gao Baihu, he would comment on the medical books in detail in vernacular language again, so he would probably understand the meaning of them as long as the people read. However, in this way, there would inevitably be sages who insulted the books, and for a moment he became entangled.

Seeing Liu Suifeng being there as if he was crazy, Gao Jin did not speak, and he did not wake him up. Doctor Liu was still a little arrogant and arrogant as a scholar. This person's perception cannot be easily changed overnight. However, Gao Jin believes that as time goes by, the changes in Hekou Fort will become increasingly greater, and sooner or later, Doctor Liu will become a like-minded member.

...

In the newly-launched brick-burning yard, the craftsmen are busy. There is no shortage of good soil here in northern Shaanxi. When we returned to Longwan to clean the dredging, we dug a lot of river sand and silt and a large amount of clay. However, this brick is not something that can be burned by burning, and this brick has a name. For example, the bricks used by ordinary people to build houses, directly rinse the yellow mud and put it in the brick mold to smooth it out and then take it out and dry it. Then you can burn the bricks in a few days.

"Great Master, we can burn two or three thousand bricks in this kiln now, but the high-quality blue bricks will probably be placed until next year to burn paper."

In the red-burning brick kiln, the head of the masons reported to Gao Jin about the situation in the brick kiln. Everyone took Gao's money, and the young and strong men worked hard. So after the construction of the brick kiln started, they quickly opened the kiln to burn bricks.

"The blue bricks used in the city wall are not careless, so there is no need to rush to use them. Just burn these bricks for the time being enough. First build your house and pig house."

Gao Jin nodded. Speaking of which, the cost of building a brick burning yard is not high, but the output is very fast. In fact, Gao Jin doesn't care much about the top-quality blue bricks mentioned by the group. What Hekou Fort currently needs is fast and low-cost bricks, as long as it can be used.

"By the way, have you tried to burn that cement?"

After the brick burning yard was built, Gao Jin also gave these craftsmen a task, which was to ask them to try to boil cement. Gao Jin had seen small factories in the countryside in the past. In addition, he studied geology and chemistry was considered a metaphor. The raw materials required for boiling cement were listed, and the general proportion was also found. I don’t know if these craftsmen had burned it.

"I burned it a few times. As per your instructions, everyone tried it several times. The latest cement burned at the moment is probably what you want."
