Chapter 148. The school is established, enrollment quota reached (30 monthly tickets update).
It’s heard that Shuzhen might take advantage of setting up schools and organizing tutoring classes to get them out of the cow shed, Wu Liguo and the others were extremely excited.
Winter is cold, summer is stuffy, there are tons of mosquitoes, and the place has an indescribable smell, they’ve had enough of it, alright?
Now hearing there’s a chance to get out, live in the village, teach the members to read and write, their eyes were sparkling brightly. They automatically brainstormed, determined to make this difficult task a sure success.
Originally, Shuzhen’s reasoning was quite grand; once mentioned, no one rebutted, nor dared to rebut.
Plus, with patching and mending from these think tanks, naturally it passed seamlessly.
Not only did they pass it, they even went along with it, getting quite a bit of sponsorship for bricks, tiles, and glass.
Regarding building a primary school in the village, so school-age kids don’t have to travel miles to attend, the members were all kinds of joyful and enthusiastic.
There was no shortage of praise for Shuzhen and Liu Shouren, saying the brother and sister were not only good at bringing in revenue for the village but especially attentive to the children. Simply model captains, advanced village accountants.
But once hearing that the adults also had to attend classes, nine and a half out of ten were like frosted eggplants, wilted.
Especially the women who were originally busy with farming, running into the mountains and forests during farm leisure for side gigs, still had to feed pigs, raise chickens, and keep bustling around with housework. They even ran to Shuzhen to plead, asking to skip this literacy class.
