Chapter 29 Complete the first mission

After sitting back in her seat, Gu Jiayue saw that the system, which had not responded to her calls just now, now automatically unfolded a light screen in front of her that only she could see.

The light screen was very simple, similar to the Peach shopping app she used in her previous life.

She opened the mall and took a look. There were a lot of things, all kinds of items, really everything you could want.

However, looking at the price again, even Gu Jiayue couldn't help but gasp.

Take the book "Five Years of Palace Examinations and Three Years of Provincial Examinations" for example: it costs 1,000 Education Points! And "One Hundred Questions on the Tongsheng Examination" costs 500 Education Points. As for "Research on the Number One Score Examination Questions," it's even more outrageous, at 8,888 Education Points! And "One-on-One Tuition from a Famous Teacher" is priced at a staggering 30,000 Education Points!

"This price is no different from robbery!" Gu Jiayue couldn't help but mutter under her breath.

She currently only has 100 education points, so she can only exchange them for items such as "Postpartum Care for Sows" or "One Hundred and Eight Methods of Rice Planting".

Filled with curiosity, she asked the system, "System, what's so mysterious about this 'One-on-One Master Classroom' that it requires such a high education value?"

The system immediately opened the promotional page and responded: [This course allows the host to have face-to-face, point-to-point, one-on-one video lessons with renowned thinkers, educators, and politicians from Daxia's five thousand years of history. During the course, the host can also ask questions simultaneously, and they will answer their questions on the spot.]

As the promotional picture slowly unfolded, Gu Jiayue looked closely and saw Confucius, Laozi, Mozi, Dong, Zhu and other sages appearing on the screen one after another.

She couldn't help but gasp and asked cautiously, "Is this... a genuine, authentic copy?"

System: [Selling counterfeit goods is illegal. This system is a genuine system. The installed programs are naturally genuine, and the items sold are naturally genuine!]

Gu Jiayue's eyes lit up, and she said hurriedly, "Tongtong? Little Tongtong..., can this course be paid in installments?"

She knew clearly that with her current knowledge, it was more than enough to enlighten a few children, but it was not easy to teach students who were interested in the imperial examinations.

It’s not that she is not talented and knowledgeable, but that what she has learned in modern times is very different from the knowledge required for the ancient imperial examinations. The knowledge she has learned in modern times is not tested in the imperial examinations.

In this way, if she wanted to teach the knowledge related to the imperial examination well, she had to start from scratch.

But how can studying on your own be as quick and effective as learning from a famous teacher? If you can get a little guidance from these famous teachers, it will surely benefit you for a lifetime.

However, the system ruthlessly rejected it: [Sorry, host, at your current level, you cannot choose the installment project. I hope the host will work hard!]

Gu Jiayue secretly complained in her heart: Humph, aren't you just worried that I won't be able to make it through the day when I pay off my debts? This is really the behavior of a profit-seeking 'swindler'!

She felt a little discouraged. She decided to save her life first. "Buy it."

System: [Conversion system purchased successfully. Costs 30 education points.]

[The conversion system has been successfully installed. One point of education is converted into one point of health. One point of health can allow the host to survive for twelve hours. Does the host need to set up automatic conversion?]

Gu Jiayue was devastated. Seeing that her education value was only 70 points, she couldn't even afford the cheapest "Postpartum Care for Sows"!

But there was no other way but to click 'yes' with tears in my eyes.

Are you kidding? This is a matter of life and death for her. If she hadn't set up this automatic conversion, and she was so busy that day that she forgot to click the conversion system, wouldn't she have died in a matter of minutes?

Still set up a little insurance.

System: [Congratulations, host! Your life is now safe. Now issuing the second task - please build a school within two months.]

Gu Jiayue didn't want to talk anymore. This system's ability to lie with open eyes was quite powerful.

She completed the first task with great effort and received 100 education points.

Well, I bought a conversion plug-in and it cost 30.

The remaining 70 education points were barely enough for her to survive for two months. This system was good, allowing her to build a school right from the start.

"System, you want me to create a school out of thin air in just two months? Isn't this just wishful thinking?"

He wanted to start a school after only accepting two students, and he was not afraid of taking too big a step and hurting his crotch.

The person who designed this system must be an ambitious and impractical person.

The system remained as cold as ice. [Host, please do your best to complete the task! Everything is for the great cause of education.]

Gu Jiayue has lost her temper.

This system was completely different from the systems described in the novels she had read before! It wasn't cute at all!

Aside from a few words on the first day, he rarely spoke to her after that. He didn't argue with her, nor did he offer any encouragement. He just issued tasks, truly cold and heartless.

Gu Jiayue sighed helplessly. Since her life now depended on this system, she had no choice but to obey. After all, staying alive was the top priority.

I calmed down and continued to teach my two children to read carefully.

But I saw two children reciting the "Three Character Classic" in their tender and clear voices.

The sound of reading spread to every corner of the courtyard. Gu Huangtai, who was resting inside, and Bai Lu and Zhi Xia, who were embroidering under the eaves, all stopped their work involuntarily and recited silently.

The sound of reading seemed to carry a magical power that soothed everyone's hearts unknowingly, and time passed quietly in the leisurely sound of reading.

Before they knew it, night had fallen. The two children had already learned the first four lines of the Three Character Classic and recognized six simple Chinese characters.

Gu Jiayue took out some candy and gave each person a piece. "That's all for today. Come back tomorrow after sunrise at 11:00 AM to continue our study."

Goudan handed the candy back to Gu Jiayue and said respectfully, "Sister, I don't want the candy. I will come on time tomorrow! Thank you, sister!" After that, he bowed solemnly to Gu Jiayue.

Gu Jiayue quickly reached out to support him, fearing he would fall. "Don't be so polite, kid. From now on, I'll teach you whenever you want."

Brother, I’m not afraid of you coming, I’m just afraid of you not coming.

Goudan's eyes sparkled as he said excitedly, "Really? Thank you, sister. No! Thank you, Master! I'll go home now and ask mother to prepare the ceremony for my apprenticeship."

Gu Jiayue quickly tried to stop him. "Don't worry, don't worry. Just study for a few days and see how it goes." After all, this was her first time teaching in ancient times, and many things were not standardized, so they needed to be gradually adjusted and improved.

Although she is quite confident in her teaching ability, she does not dare to be careless, for fear that those parents will regard her as someone who is acting on impulse and intends to cheat people out of their money.

Goudan replied obediently, "Everything is up to the Master's arrangements."

As expected of a student that Gu Jiayue favored, he changed his name so quickly.

Gu Jiayue found the title "Master" quite pleasant to the ear.

"Go and have fun, and be sure to be on time tomorrow," she said.

"Okay, teacher, please go to bed early. I still have to continue practicing calligraphy after I get home." After saying this, Goudan put the words he wrote today into his cross-body bag and ran out of the Gu family yard like a gust of wind.

Gu Yuhe was originally holding a windmill, planning to find Goudan to play with it, but when he saw this, he felt that the world was full of malice towards him.

I've been studying all day, and now I'm finally done with school, but why do I have to go back home to write? Brother, you're so diligent, what should I do?

It’s a pity that Goudan ran so fast that he didn’t notice his helplessness at all.

Seeing this, Gu Jiayue shook her head in amusement. She ignored Gu Yuhe and walked straight to Gu Zhigeng and Gu Bailu and asked, "Have you memorized those lines from the Three Character Classic I just taught you?"

Gu Bailu and Gu Zhigeng were both stunned, looking bewildered.

Huh? This has something to do with us?

"Recite it for me to hear." Gu Jiayue said.

Gu Zhigeng looked at Gu Jiayue, feeling a little nervous for some reason, and began to recite the poem stutteringly. "At birth, human nature is good. Natures are close, but habits separate them. Gou... Gou..."

Gu Jiayue looked at Gu Bailu again, who was also very nervous: "When people are born, they are good by nature. People are close to each other, but habits... habits... make them separate. If you..."

They both got stuck on the word "Guo", crying out inwardly: "Help! You didn't say you were going to spank me! We were just here to watch the fun, please, Second Sister, please have some mercy..."

"Gu Yuhe!" Gu Jiayue shouted loudly.

"Here I come!" Gu Yuhe hurried over, holding the windmill in his hand.

"Your fourth and fifth sisters haven't memorized what they just learned yet. You must teach them before they go to bed tonight. Do you understand?"

"Ah?" Gu Yuhe looked reluctant. Wasn't it already over? Why did he still need to teach others?

"What? You forgot what you learned after an entire afternoon? Look at Goudan, he's studying so hard. When he comes tomorrow, he might even be better than you."

"Nonsense! How could I forget!"

"Really? Then I'll come to check on your teaching results in an hour."

In this way, Gu Yuhe was forcibly dragged here for "teaching".
