Chapter 143 Teaching Assistant

The impact of smallpox on Changsheng County gradually disappeared. Although vaccination caused partial death, those who survived no longer had to fear the disease of smallpox. After all, gratitude is much greater than hatred.

Production gradually recovered, and the Chinese literature school was further expanded. In Changsheng County School alone, there were already 23 Chinese language teachers and 270 Chinese language registered practitioners.

Their lectures are not only in the school, but also in the construction site of the saw yard, but also in the dense jungle, in the sweaty corn fields, and in the scorching brick and tile kilns. This is a real half-working and half-reading. Through the mouths of more than 400 tribal leaders, everyone knows that learning Chinese is an opportunity to change their destiny.

Those Chinese registration practitioners are actually not Han people. They are the first people to learn Chinese on this land. For example, when studying in the Han Literature School in Changsheng County, a long-legged bear from Zhuangyuanqiao.

His main job here is to be a kiln maker apprentice, and he learned brick and tile firing with his master. His monthly salary is 2,000 yuan for Wanli Tongbao, which is 1,400 yuan higher than other apprentices, and 2 taels of silver.

Even in the Ming Dynasty, this income is relatively high among ordinary people and can protect you from food and clothing.

The additional 1,400 Tongbao is divided into three parts, and 600 is the salary of a part-time professor of brick and tile factory worker. The remaining 400 is the reward for his ability to listen and speak Chinese and speak Chinese and to be more handy in work and study; the other 400 is the reward for his proficiency, down-to-earth and willingness to work.

There are 270 native people like Long-legged Bear in Changsheng County. Their talents are different from those of their work. The same is that no matter what they do, they learn faster and can get more bonuses than others. Naturally, they are more respected by others.

What makes them respected is not these papers with Wanli Tongbao printed on them, but these papers can make them have more.

They could go to Qingliangju teahouses and listen to the Beiyang generals who improvised a book. Although they had to grit their teeth to buy a pot of green tea, the long-legged bear also tried to tell a book by himself. The story of his tribe leader Zheng Tu's decisive battle with the Spaniards was applauded. The eye-catching feeling was really good. Even the Beiyang Banners who were on vacation applauded him.

Not only did he wear a Jinghai suit, he also customized a light blue long gown from the tailor shop, which was usually worn by noble people who did not need to work in the Ming Dynasty. Although the fabric is of poor quality and does not have those low-key and luxurious dark patterns, the long-legged bear is already very satisfied.

He was not a local, so he didn't catch the good opportunity for the court to build a house for the people. He rented a house in the south of the county at the same price as a small cup of tea, and took him to get the little Mongolian horse in the earlier battle and lived in.

In fact, what he got in the battle was an Andalusian horse, a tall and big Spanish horse. He and two soldiers from the No. 1 Bridge fought to kill the spoils of the Spanish light cavalry. One of the two was injured by the war horse, and the other was cut through the cotton armor by the sword, and the light cavalry's armor and long sword were separated, and he took the horse away.

Because he had already had his own martial arts, the reward from the tribe leader Zheng Tu, a heavy set of cotton iron armor and helmets of the Liaodong Army of the Ming Dynasty, and a well-made Ming waist knife.

His trophy was taken by the cavalry captain named Hulan under Beiyang Mashuai, and he exchanged the Andalusian horse for a Mongolian war horse at the cost of teaching equestrianism. This transaction was very suitable.

In Asia, he could no longer find such a superb rider to teach riding skills. Moreover, this horse from the "Ming Shunyi King Tribe" is an excellent military horse. Its hooves are as hard as iron, and it can be worn on any terrain without even having to hang a palm.

In the small courtyard he rented, another family came from Shandong in the Ming Dynasty, with a family of seven. The elderly man was over 60 years old and could still work in the fields. During the slack season, he sat in the yard and enjoyed the coolness under the trees. For a long period of half a month, the long-legged bear once thought that the food for the old man to enjoy the cool was sugarcane burrito, and he felt deeply confused about this.

Why do people from the Central Plains do not need to spit out spoils when eating sugarcane?

It was not until he tasted it that the white vegetable was called onion. After asking for advice, the long-legged bear learned that the green onion burrito was the most correct and authentic way to eat it. I heard from the old man and god that the best green onion in the world was born in Shandong, which was a delicacy that could taste sweet, but it was not possible here. The sunshine was too strong and it was a bit bitter.

But the long-legged bear can only taste the spicy food. The first few times he ate it so spicy that he burst into tears. But after only half a month, he could sit side by side in the yard in the yard and have a lot of fun with the scallion burrito.

I heard that the eldest son of the old man's family was a county magistrate in Shandong, and his second son was a scholar. He followed his brother's instructions and came here to join the Dongyang Military Mansion. His second son easily got the position of the county magistrate. Although his salary was not high, his treatment was very good.

The old man said that there was a well-made handgun hanging on the table of the county government office called "Law", which ordered all officials to be banned from embezzlement. Once the property was found to be confiscated, the gun was killed. However, in contrast, the military government distributed the fields to the officials and asked them to hire people to farm. For example, the county chief clerk had 200 acres of land, and was allowed to hire six people, and a summer subsidy of 500 yuan per month Tongbao.

The long-legged bear lived in Changsheng County very peacefully, and went to the Chinese literature school, brick kilns and Qingliang House. A few days ago, a tribal leader from the south came to propose marriage, hoping to recruit him as his son-in-law in accordance with the rules of the Ming Dynasty, but the long-legged bear did not agree.

It’s not that he looked down on that leader, nor that girl, he looked down on everyone in his own tribe. This is how the teachers in the Chinese literature school teach it, which is completely different from what the Spanish did.

Those teachers said that if a person's bloodline and his compatriots look down on him, no one in the world would respect him.

The teachers also said that whether a person can be respected by others does not depend on his deliberate plea or beg for mercy, nor does it depend on the bird of color, but on what kind of person he is, what kind of talent and future he has. The Ming Dynasty has given them the opportunity to learn talents and a bright future, which is the foundation for their respect.

This is not what the teacher said. Those teachers are gentle scholars from the Ming Dynasty. However, because this is the original words of an Asian strategy and ordered them to tell every citizen who is studying Chinese, they have such relatively vulgar teachings.

This is also the confidence of the long-legged bear to refuse the engagement, because "the people of the Ming Dynasty should not underestimate themselves." He believed that his learning ability and talent could make a difference in Asia in the Ming Dynasty, and he could rely on his own abilities to become a respected person.

Just like those people from the Central Plains, they get a piece of their own land through the government here, and through their hands, everything is available.

Maybe it will be his turn to go to that tribe to propose marriage in the future, and it will also follow the tradition of the Ming Dynasty, but it will not be a marriage, because at that time, he must have created his own wealth.

Not long after, his chance came.

The old man in the yard said that there are many immigrant villages without teachers. The government recruits local people who are skilled in Chinese as assistant teachers and goes to remote villages to assist teachers in opening Chinese literature schools. They give Tongbao 1,000 yuan a month, and can also get 200 acres of free land in the local area, so he can try it.

The long-legged bear packed his bags one night, hired a strong hunter of the same tribe with Qibaitongbao to put on his armor as a guard, rode on the Mongolian war horse, wears a capable Jinghai suit, and set off with the order from Changsheng County Government.
