Quan Qijin was persuaded by his own wife, and honestly called a meeting of the villagers the next day.

When everyone learned that they were going to use the money from the village to start a school, everyone's expressions were very unified.

They all looked at Quan Jin with puzzled and curious eyes.

Quan Qijin was looked at in a daze, and asked back: "What do you all see me doing? If you have any ideas, just say it directly. If you don't agree, it's okay, let's discuss it together."

Then everyone retracted their gaze and looked at the other people around them.

In the end, it was old man Zhou who spoke first, and said, "Village chief, the construction of the school is a matter of our village. Isn't it normal to use the money of the village? Why do you want to talk to us specifically?"

The others immediately echoed.

They really couldn't figure it out.

Quan Quanjin blushed instantly.

With so many people in the whole village, he is the only one who doesn't think so!
Qi Zheng knew what was going on as soon as he saw Qi Quanjin's expression, he cleared his throat immediately, and said, "What the fourth brother means is that the school belongs to the village. But there are too many things to do with the money in our village accounts. It will definitely not work if all of it is used to build a school, so I ask everyone to come over and study together to see what to do if there is not enough money."

Quan Qijin glanced at his father, wanting to say that he didn't think so.

But this is what he thought about, and he didn't dare to really say it.

"Well, that's what I mean. It's my fault, I didn't make it clear."

Quan Quanjin coughed twice, which dissipated the heat from his face.

The three old men of Zhou family, Wang family and Sun family looked at each other.

Based on their understanding of the fourth child of Qi's family, it is very likely that the other party didn't think about it that much at all, and what Old Master Qi said was purely making up for his son.

But they won't make it clear.

After all, the majesty of the village chief still needs to be maintained.

"The money in the village is not enough, so let's all work together!"

Grandpa Sun said: "Those who have money will contribute money, and those who have no money will contribute. In the end, it is to build a school for the children in our village. From now on, the children will all be able to read and write. If nothing else, it will be convenient for them to find a job in the city."

Mr. Wang also said: "That's the reason. Our Wang family pays ten taels of silver. If it's too much, it really won't work. The family has to live."

Mr. Zhou said: "My family also pays ten taels of silver."

Grandpa Sun: "My family also pays ten taels of silver."

The three families directly pooled 30 taels.

too much?
many.

But if it is used to build the kind of academy designed by Yimeng, it is obviously a drop in the bucket.

Lao Tongsheng and his party looked at each other, and finally reported the money that each family could pay.

Not many, a family of two or two.

Just two taels of silver is not too little for them.

Ji Hu and the others saw that the old boy gave birth to them, so they followed the trend and became a family.

Some people think it is too much and are unwilling to release it, but they are too embarrassed to object, so they can only hold their noses and endure it.

Those who moved to the village later were reluctant to give out even two hundred Wen, not to mention two taels.

They don't even have a decent house yet, so how can they have the spare money to build a school!
But they were also embarrassed to say that they would not participate, so they expressed that they could contribute.

Quan Quanjin saw that everyone was very supportive of this matter, and the stone in his heart fell.

"I understand what everyone means. Let's do it this way, let's not talk about making up ten or two. Later, I will find someone to figure out how much money it will cost. Our family will pay the bulk, and we will study who will pay for the rest. .”

After a pause, Qi Quanjin said again: "We won't let everyone work in vain if they can work hard. The wages that should be counted still have to be counted, but it's not as much as doing other things."

At this moment, Qi Erlang suddenly ran over.

Qi Erlang was originally going to see Xiao Shiyi with other brothers, but his fourth aunt arranged for him to pass the message, so he hurried over.

"Fourth uncle, fourth uncle, my fourth aunt has something to say."

Qi Ercai ran to Quanquanjin's side, leaned into his ear and whispered a few words, then turned and ran away again.

After hearing this, Quan Qijin smiled a little more on his face, and said: "I almost forgot something my wife told me yesterday. Thanks to Erlang who came to remind me, otherwise I will have to torment everyone Come here."

As for the wife of the village chief, everyone in Yongping Village now has to say that she is a capable woman.

So now when they heard that the village chief's wife said something, everyone cheered up and looked at Qi Quanjin, waiting for him to continue.

Qi Quanjin said: "A school is a place to teach and educate people, so it is impossible to do it without restraint. After all, the doctor we hired, as well as the tables, chairs, pens, inks, papers and inkstones all need money."

"But my daughter-in-law said that Su Xiu doesn't need much for the children in our village to go to school. But if he can recruit children from other villages, the income from the school will be included in the village's account."

"Although it's just an idea now, if one day the school in our village becomes profitable, we will distribute dividends to everyone according to the initial investment."

Qi Qijin conveyed his daughter-in-law's meaning to the villagers. When someone showed a puzzled expression and obviously didn't understand, he would explain the meaning of what he just said.

When everyone understood everything, everyone was shocked and stunned.

They really didn't expect that one day, people like them who planed in the soil would still have the hope of earning money for the school.

"That's the thing, the situation is the situation. Everyone go back and think about it. If you have any ideas, come and tell me. If you think there is no problem, then I will go to the city to contact the craftsman tomorrow."

Qi Quanjin looked at Zhou Tao: "Taozi, tomorrow you will bring a few young people into the city with me."

"Hey, I understand the village chief."

Zhou Tao quickly agreed.

What I have to be busy with is the affairs of the village, so naturally I can't just bring the Qi family into the city to make amends.

Bring a few villagers with you to let everyone know what you are busy with when you go to the city. This is also what Yimeng taught Qiquanjin.

Do the villagers have an opinion?

Can you have any opinion?
Thinking that one day in the future they might earn money from the school, everyone was so excited that they didn't know what to do.

Especially the old men of Zhou, Wang, and Sun's family immediately asked the old woman in the family to calculate how much money was left in the family as soon as they returned home.

That kid Quan Jin said, the more money you invest now, the more money you will share in the future.

Even if the money cannot be distributed, the names of all the villagers who paid for the school will be engraved on the outer wall of the school.

That is a good thing that will be passed down for an unknown number of years!
The thought of the future children and grandchildren being able to see their ancestors' names engraved on the wall, and still in the front position, made the hearts of the three old men surge with passion.
