Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

Blackstone County, Tieshi Town.

"Uncle Tiezi, why are you in such a hurry? What happened?"

"Why are you still here in a daze? Come on, hurry up... Go back and tell your mother-in-law and the children at home to gather at the notice board. I have something great to announce."

The old farmer who has now become the 'Iron Mayor' hurriedly walked, holding a notice in his hand and even throwing away his crutch.

"A great thing? What a great thing?"

"The newly built academy in our town is about to start enrolling students." After more than a year of development, Tieshi Town has now become the most prosperous commercial town within dozens of miles. Therefore, when the academy was first built, Mo Jun was here Two primary schools and a junior high school were built.

"Let's just recruit students! What's the big deal?"

During the construction of the three academies in Tieshi Town, people in the town and several nearby villages and towns often watched, and many families had the idea of ​​waiting until the academies were completed to send their children to study in the academies.

After all, the living conditions of civilians in Hanzhong County are now better, even several levels higher than before.

But although there are people who have this idea, they are not many.

the reason is simple.

Because studying is really expensive these days. Even if the living standards of more than 70% of the households in Hanzhong County are no longer inferior to those of the "rich households" in Xianyang, the pressure to pay for a child's education is still too great.

Therefore, it is indeed a good thing that Tieshi Town's academy has started enrolling students, but in terms of a 'great good thing', it seems that it is not to that extent.

However, Mayor Tie's next words instantly made the civilian who asked the question jump three feet high.

"In this recruitment, children who study in primary schools will be free to study. Do you think this is a good thing?" Mayor Tie glanced at him lightly as he walked away.

"No money? How is that possible!" The civilian who asked the question suddenly widened his eyes.

"Hey~ not only is there no money, but the academy also includes food and accommodation!" Seeing the other party's reaction, Mayor Tie laughed again, and then dropped another bombshell, directly blinding the person who asked the question.

"This, this, this... Is it possible that Mr. Shengping, the old man, is really the reincarnation of a saint?" The person who asked the question muttered to himself as if he was stupid.

"Hehe~~ I don't know if the old man is the reincarnation of a saint, but in my heart, Mr. Shengping is much better than any so-called saint."

The two were stunned for a while.

After a while.

The civilian who asked the question suddenly slapped his thigh and said suddenly: "By the way, I have to go back and tell my wife and children at home the good news. Mayor Tie, I'm leaving first."

Say it.

I saw the man running away quickly.

Mayor Tie Shi continued to rush to the notice board and began to spread the news about the academy's enrollment quickly throughout Tieshi Town.

For a while.

There was a craze in the entire Iron Stone Town.

"Old man Shi, have you signed up your child?"

"Haha~~ Of course I signed up. Mr. Shengping took pity on us untouchables who were digging in the fields and gave the old man and his family this opportunity. Of course, the old man can't let Mr. Shengping down!"

"Yes! If this had been left in the past, we wouldn't have dared to think of such a good thing."

"Hey! Who says it's not the case? This is the message sent by Lord Shengping himself, otherwise if it were anyone else, I wouldn't believe it at all."

······

"Shengping-kun is really a saint in this world, and he can be so ambitious. If these academies can be successfully run, then there will be another path for scholars of our generation in the future!"

"Of course, this is a time of change that has not happened in thousands of years. Brother Li, why don't you and I also go to the academy to apply for a job as a teacher?"

"Hahaha~~ The heroes have the same idea. I didn't expect Brother Huang to have the same idea."

······

"Brother, I wonder what the "academy" you just mentioned means?"

"Coming from out of town?"

"yes!"

"No wonder. If you are literate about this matter, you can go to the notice board in the center of the town and find out for yourself."

······

Hanzhong County is now home to hundreds of schools of thought, and there are heroes all over the world. As the first 'stop' entering Hanzhong, Tieshi Town is now home to countless people from all walks of life.

In fact, when Lord Mo first gathered hundreds of scholars with [Printing Technology] and [White Paper], many people thought that Lord Mo just wanted to build an academy similar to [Jixia Academy].

However, it was not until this moment that they suddenly realized that they had completely underestimated that Lord Shengping.

Some people saw ‘free’ and ‘food and accommodation included’.

Others saw something deeper.

There were also some businessmen who had just arrived here. After hearing the news about the 'New Academy' from everyone, their eyes gradually showed a thoughtful look.

······

······

at the same time.

【Mofu】.

"Sir, the academy's enrollment is now gradually on track. However, this time, many nobles have sent their children to the academy. I'm worried..."

"It doesn't matter!"

Mo Jun waved his hand to dispel Chen Jinghui's concerns and said: "It's just some small tricks. When the time comes to recruit students, except for the main academy in [Shengping Town], you can just find an excuse for the academies in other areas." Just throw them out.”

Chen Jinghui was stunned and said: "If we just throw them out like this, what if they take the opportunity to cause trouble?"

Mo Jun sneered and said: "It doesn't matter, it's just pre-registration now. When the official registration comes, you can add another rule. Each family can only have three children at most who can go to school for free. If the extra people want to enroll, You need to pay tuition.”

"As for taking the opportunity to cause trouble? Haha~ If they have the courage, let them try it!"

This time when the academy is recruiting students, Mr. Mo is not worried at all that this group of nobles in the Qin Kingdom will cause trouble.

As for the reason.

In fact, it is very simple, that is, these nobles have already made trouble.

However, before they had time to take action, they were forcibly suppressed by Ying Zheng and Mo Jun.

And it's different from before.

This time it was a real forcible suppression, without even a reason or excuse.

When the news of the academy's enrollment had just spread, Mo Jun's intelligence agency had vaguely sensed something was wrong. Although he had not found enough evidence at the time, this hint was enough.

What happens after that is simple.

Mo Jun complained, Ying Zheng gave the order, and the net was launched.

Overnight.

Thirteen high-ranking officials and nobles were slaughtered, and blood flowed like rivers.

As for what happened afterwards...

There is no afterthought at all.

Ying Zheng randomly found some "evidence" and threw it out, and then forcibly calmed the matter down.

The current Ying Zheng is no longer the young dragon who was trying to survive among the forces of Lu Buwei, Lao Ai, and Chu's foreign relatives.

Why did Mr. Mo choose to make such a big fuss at this time? It was because now they were able to control the situation, and they suppressed everything unreasonably with absolute strength.

The various clans, old aristocrats, and landlord forces in the Qin State are indeed like centipede insects, dead but not stiff.

Even Ying Zheng can't get rid of it now.

But if there is no stalemate, there will be no stalemate. With Ying Zheng's current strength, if he just kills dozens or hundreds of bugs, there will still be no problem at all.
