Chapter 57 Plan
Bai was very happy recently. She found that she had made the right choice and the kind gentleman really fulfilled his promise.
This settlement, which can be called a slum, was rarely scaffolded. Masons and carpenters in the city who had previously dismissed them gathered to build houses for them.
They are four big houses with bedrooms, bathhouses, and even drainage ditches dug to bring water from the Blue River, so you don't have to go far to fetch water.
They have no dissatisfaction with this. After all, Bai has never expected that everyone can have a house. What's more, not only a house, but also plenty of food and brand-new clothes, although they need to start working and helping others now.
The factory builds infrastructure, but there are also wages every day.
The kind gentleman fulfilled his promise and allowed the monster hybrids to live a much better life than before. They didn't even need to stay up late or run around.
Thinking of this, Bai felt like he was going to cry.
But she didn't cry. She still had things to do. Mr. Kindhearted told her that she had to learn a lot of things today.
Many, many things have been like this in the past few days. The gentleman dealt with those things during the day, and at night he came to teach her and school, teaching them literacy and arithmetic.
The husband said that he taught these people to himself first, and then they taught it to the adults who need to work. Everyone has to learn so that they can make more money in the future.
Although some people have doubts about this, and some even said to his husband, what is the use of studying? If you have time to study, it is better to work more and get some wages, but Bai knows that his husband is right.
When she was working as a messenger, she knew the importance of literacy. Those who were illiterate earned much less than those who were literate. She also had a little foundation of self-study before. She learned it on her own in the market. Those clerks who wrote or occasionally
Some customers didn't mind teaching her two words. Every time she would write them down and practice them for a long time, for fear of forgetting because she didn't know when she would learn them again.
But it's different now.
Thinking of this, she took the valuable book and started studying more seriously.
This settlement has gradually got on the right track. Although the monster hybrids are not yet clear about the situation, at least they will live up to their good intentions. Some of them still have doubts about Lu En, but doubts are doubtful, at least there is one thing.
There is no doubt that that gentleman definitely has no ill intentions towards them.
"Xiaobai, the books you bought and the clerk you invited are here. Didn't you say this was the master's order? Go quickly." At this time, a monster hybrid shouted outside.
She was a former monster whore. Although her clothes were no longer so alluring, she was still doing nothing and did not go out to work.
But the gentleman doesn't seem to mind this, so there are currently many monster hybrids who are still waiting for charity. Anyway, they all have something to eat, and the good old man doesn't care, so they are happy to eat and wait to die, but help to pass the message
This can still be done, just like now.
Bai immediately stood up, thanked the monster girl first, and then quickly ran outside.
Outside, a carriage was pulling many books, and a bookstore clerk was waiting there driving the carriage.
Seeing Bai coming, he also got off the carriage.
"Welcome to your business. This time you have ordered a total of fifty-five textbooks and thirty children's enlightenment books. The money has been paid before, so I sent the books. In addition, you also ordered a scribe service. My name is
Kestor is a clerk." The bookstore clerk who came here said politely, without showing any other expression because of the mixed blood of monsters here.
The person who came was none other than Kestor, who was in the bookstore that day. The clerk couldn't help but look around and marveled.
While saying hello in business language, Kesto looked at this place with some surprise. He thought that this place was very dirty, and that it was all filled with the kind of lowly and vicious monsters in the rumors, or the coquettish monster girls, but here he was.
After arriving here, he found that the place was surprisingly clean, with a lot of construction going on, and a very cute little girl came to greet him.
Although judging from the white hair of the other party, there is no doubt that she is also a monster hybrid, but...compared with the monster girls I saw in the red light district in the past, she is a little unusual, and her body——
There is a vigor and vitality that cannot be seen in those monster girls. Every time he passes by the red light district and sees those monster girls standing on the street, he feels that they are just walking corpses with dull eyes.
But the monster hybrids here, including those who had led him before, those who were working outside cutting down trees and breaking rocks, and the little girl who greeted him in front of him, did not have that kind of death aura.
Throwing these thoughts out of his mind, Kesto immediately took out a piece of paper: "Then please sign here. According to the market price, the price of hiring a scribe is one hundred thousand words and three Star Maple Silver Coins, but I am
Clerk, so my price is slightly more expensive, costing seven silver coins, and you also need to bear the consumption of pens, paper and ink. If you are not copying books, but asking me to write something completely new, then I will do it according to your requirements.
You will be charged for what you write.”
Although the situation here is strange, money still has to be earned, and Kesto is not prepared to work for nothing.
"Well, please come here. We need to copy a lot of literacy collections. We don't need to create them ourselves, but you know...if we buy them all, the price will be a little unacceptable." Bai nodded, these things have been done before.
It has been arranged, and although the money is a lot, my husband has ordered that it is necessary for everyone to learn to read.
It is a pity that books for literacy are too expensive. It should be said that no matter what kind of book it is, the price is very high. This carriage book cost more than 300 gold coins, which is more than the cost of building the entire settlement.
You must know that there are hundreds of people here, and the daily food expenses are only two or three gold coins, which is enough to feed hundreds of people for a day.
Therefore, it is more common to just buy paper and copy it. Bai originally planned to copy it herself, but she was illiterate and the quantity was too large, so she could only hire a scribe to do it.
The two people were talking while the carriage drove inside.
What they didn't see was that on the other side of the road, the old man looked at the carriage and the clerk who came in, and was a little surprised: "Are you going to teach these monsters to read? Mr. Lucian, what do you think?"
