Chapter 6, Agricultural Dazhai

August of the 34th year of the First Emperor.

The first private school was established in the Chen family. The villagers were very enthusiastic about this private school. They renovated an abandoned house next to Xu Fan's house and turned it into a school.

So the sound of reading "a, o, e.y, u~~~" resounded in this small village.

As long as the villagers in Chen's family hear the sound of their children reading, they will smile unconsciously. Their children will be able to write their own names after one day of school. They have the seed of reading and do not dare to delay it.

A primary school was established and he became a wife. Xu Fan also gained the respect of the villagers in Chen's family, and he had a foothold in this world.

However, one thing was different from what Xu Fan thought, that is, he wanted to make money to support his family through his career as a master, but in the end, he was wrong.

It was going well at first, but a lunch completely disrupted Xu Fan's plan.

Xu Fan is a modern man who eats and eats almost every day, but when he came to this world, he barely had enough to eat. He simply couldn't bear the habit of eating two meals a day, especially in this body, which was even more powerful. He also ate more, so he would make a lunch every day at noon. Although there was no big fish or meat, it was still full of white rice and served with some wild vegetables that Xu Fan was not famous for.

For Xu Fan, this standard of food is already a weight-loss meal, with no fat at all, but the smell of rice is the biggest temptation for children who are studying.

As soon as Xu Fan's lunch started, his students lost interest in studying when they smelled the aroma. Children of this age are the best eaters, but Chen's family is lacking in material supplies, especially during this lean period. Every villager does not have much food at home, and most of the children eat wild vegetables at home. The children are so hungry that they are skin and bones. In a real leather bag, you can see the rows of ribs under the child's skin. This situation rarely occurs in the 21st century, but in Xu Fan's memory, it was like this when he was a child.

Xu Fan was not a good person, but he was the only one eating when a group of students were hungry. Under such circumstances, he was too embarrassed to eat alone.

So he looked at the students and said, "If any of you are hungry, just come over and eat!"

The other students looked at each other and did not dare to go there, but Asheng was already very familiar with Xu Fan, and since he was familiar with it, he walked to the kitchen without ceremony, made a big bowl of rice and started cooking.

After this example, other students went to the kitchen unceremoniously, fearing that they would lose their share if it was too late.

Xu Fan saw the crowd and shouted, "Go back and get the bowl!"

Although he made a lot of rice, it was not enough for 23 children. He could only make two or three mouthfuls for each person. Then he made a few more kilograms of rice and made a big pot of white porridge. It was not dense, but it was large in quantity. .

"No more!" This may be the first full meal they have ever eaten in their lives, and every child has a bulging belly. Xu Fan was afraid that something would happen if they ate, so he stopped them from eating and drove them to the yard to eat.

From that day on, Xu Fan's private school would provide a lunch every day. He couldn't afford white rice, so Xu Fan could only cook porridge, which was relatively thin. Occasionally, he would make an egg drop soup to share among 24 people. , which can be regarded as an improvement in food (in fact, this is what Xu Fan wants to eat, but after all, he cannot do such a thing as eating alone.)
  After the villagers learned about this, they respected Xu Fan even more. Xu Fan could feel that this respect even exceeded that of the village chief Chen Gang. Chen Lin also asked Chen Xiu to help Xu Fan cook, and she became a logistics staff member of the private school. Other villagers often give Xu Fan some rice and salt. In short, they try their best to reduce Xu Fan's troubles.

At the same time, this incident was also spread by the villagers of the Chen family, causing Xu Fan's reputation to spread throughout the villages. Everyone in Yangcheng County knew that a highly respected master had come to the Chen family, and students who came to study at his home were even given a free package. meal.

Now that Xu Fan has left Chen's house, other villagers also respect Xu Fan very much when they see him. They always call him Master Xu, which makes Xu Fan very satisfied in his heart. This era is still simple, and people who have done good things can have justice. Feedback can be respected by the entire society. Thinking of his hometown, China, hey, don’t mention it.

But soon Xu Fan understood what it means for a young man to eat me to death. Originally, he still had some rice and noodles at home, but after providing lunch for these children, the supply quickly decreased. Xu Fan calculated that if he taught these students for one year, he would not make any money. , a lot more needs to be posted. But seeing these skinny children, he was embarrassed to cancel his lunch.

"Teach, teach no matter what. People are about to starve to death, so let's find a way to survive first!" The oppression of reality made Xu Fan think clearly. What the children in Chenjia Village need now is not to study, but to find a way. To survive, these children need wilderness survival skills.

On the evening of August 34, the 8th year of the First Emperor's reign.

Xu Fan summoned all the parents of the Chen family and said: "The most important thing for your son now is not to study and read, but to find a way to survive."

The villagers looked bitter. Who wouldn't want their children to have enough to eat if they had food? The key is that they don't have food.

Xu Fan also understood the villagers' difficulties and said: "The village has designated a wasteland for me. I plan to use this wasteland as a school field, and all the proceeds from the field will be used for students' meals and study expenses."

After Xu Fan settled down and started a family, especially after he became a wife, in order to retain high-priority talents like Xu Fan, Chen Gang, the head of the village, just allocated a piece of more than ten acres of wasteland to Xu Fan. He said that it was his farm. Of course, the wasteland was cleared. He can only leave matters to himself.

Xu Fan didn't pay attention at first, because he understood that the troubled times at the end of Qin were coming, and that Chu and Han would fight for hegemony in the future. In such a troubled times, it was natural to point out the country on the keyboard, but when he really traveled to this era, Xu Fan was Don’t dare to participate. He didn't even dare to go to Africa. How could he dare to participate in a troubled world where half of the population died.

He had planned everything. When the Chen family had some savings, he would find a way to cross the Yangtze River and move to Jiangdong to settle down. He remembered that no matter how fierce the Chu-Han War was, it was just a chaotic war in the Central Plains, and Jiangdong was almost Not exposed to war.

Because he had the idea of ​​relocating, Xu Fan didn't care about this wasteland. But now that he was suffering from the food crisis, Xu Fan thought of this wasteland and planned to turn it into a school field.

Chen Lin objected: "Xu Fanqian must think clearly, the land is the foundation of a family."

Xu Fan said: "I have thought clearly. This is the wasteland of the Chen family. Now it should be used to support the children of the Chen family."

Then he looked around and said: "I just want to explain to everyone that in the next time, I will take these children to support myself and teach them some survival skills. They will spend more time working. I hope you don't misunderstand!"

Next, Xu Fan plans to take his students to open up wasteland, farm, and raise chickens and ducks. He was worried that the villagers would misunderstand that he was treating the students as tenants, so he explained it in advance.

Chen Gang immediately said: "We can trust Master Xu's moral character. Anyone who dares to doubt Master Xu will definitely spurn him to his face!"

Other villagers also expressed their trust in Xu Fan. Their children ate all the food they gave to Xu Fan. How could they not trust such a noble person?

Xu Fan sighed when he saw these trusting eyes. It turns out that people in this era have a high moral bottom line.
