Chapter 613: Princess's Disciple
At the beginning, there were not many things at the express station, but now everyone knows about the express station. Many people send things there, and some even come here specifically to ask if there are any things for them.
The express delivery stations are very busy.
However, Xiao Yueyao entrusted these to the manager she personally trained.
Then there are the many people who want to send things to other places, such as Yunzhou, Xizhou and other places.
Because some people have relatives over there.
They also want things shipped quickly.
Because express delivery stations charge cheap fees and deliver things quickly.
It's much faster than letters. Even letters take more than a month to receive.
If the express delivery station is fast, it will be delivered in four or five days.
So Xiao Yueyao also thought about expanding the express delivery station.
However, they still have a lot of things to do, and they have to take care of everything, so they are really overwhelmed.
Because Xiao Yueyao had already spread the news that the girls' college was about to open.
I estimate that there will be many people coming for the interview.
Xiao Yueyao will personally preside over the interview at the girls' college.
Make sure that the girls admitted to the college are girls of good character and good temperament.
Because once these women graduate, they themselves represent the reputation and prestige of the college.
Xiao Yueyao also takes it seriously.
"Once we find the cement and repair the road, we'll set up the bus stop and run the buses. Now let's focus on the girls' college first."
"But I'll also find time to set up route map sites and bus routes based on the map of the entire state..."
Su Xueyi said, "Let me arrange the stations and routes. It will be very tiring for you to do everything yourself."
"good!"
Xiao Yueyao nodded.
Anyway, Su Xueyi has now recruited many strategists, and these strategists are quite capable.
…
Time passed quickly, and the day came for the opening interviews at the girls' college.
Xiao Yueyao originally thought that there might not be many people coming.
Because many people still have feudal ideas and don't pay much attention to girls.
But she never expected that when she arrived, the college entrance was crowded with people.
Many parents come in person to send their daughters here.
Some parents wear patched clothes, but they dress their daughters in clean and new clothes. Although they are also made of coarse linen, they are clean and tidy.
Some came here on their own.
Some of them looked to be seven or eight years old, and some were in their teens.
Xiao Yueyao said, "It seems that some parents still value girls' education and want them to learn a skill."
"But it seems like there are a few families with good financial conditions."
"Families like this usually hire a female teacher to teach them individually."
Liu Tongtong said from the side: "Princess, those people know that the entire women's academy is opened by you, Princess, and they all want to become your disciples."
Xiao Shuang said, "However, there are also some wealthy and noble families who are watching. They don't want their daughters to study with ordinary people. They are afraid that it will affect their reputation. The few who can come here and look well-off are also daughters of merchants. Some merchant families don't teach their daughters to be so particular."
Xiaoshuang and Xiaoju are the maids that Xiao Yueyao brought here from the capital.
I was too busy before and sent them out to do housekeeping.
Both of them have made rapid progress and are doing very well.
She also brought them along to help with the interview at the girls' college this time.
Liu Tongtong is the girl Xiao Yueyao rescued in Hezhou. She keeps her by her side and Liu Tongtong does a good job.
So Xiao Yueyao was also willing to use her.
Listening to everyone discussing this, Xiao Yueyao had an idea in her mind.
"Let's enter the academy from the other door!"
…
The academy is no longer the remote and desolate place it used to be. After Xiao Yueyao's transformation, the surrounding area has become shops.
The things sold in the store are all for learning.
There are also some snacks, as well as bookstores and paper shops, and many people come here to shop.
But this place is different from the pier. It is more elegant here, and most of the people strolling here are scholars.
There were also some women who were dressed more elegantly.
This street has an elegant feel to it, and there are many head ornaments and accessories, so people come here to browse.
Some small shops are decorated very elegantly.
The environment here is relatively quiet.
Xiao Yueyao also made plans for what the store would be used for at that time.
Many young girls looked at this place and felt curious, their eyes sparkling.
"Mom, this place is really different."
"Of course, this is a place designed and built by the princess herself, so it's naturally different. My daughter, you must learn skills well. The women's college opened by the princess is the first of its kind in the Great Yan Dynasty. Even if you learn a few skills, it will make a difference."
"Yes, you see, the princess's niece has opened a restaurant. I heard that you can learn cooking and medicine there. You must work hard."
"If Mom were in her teens now, she would come and study too."
"Once you learn a skill, it's a real skill. You'll never starve with this craft. As the saying goes, even in a famine, a skilled craftsman will never starve."
"We don't know where to learn a craft ourselves, and in some places, even if we pay money, the master won't teach us seriously. But it's different here. I heard that the princess and the prefect have invited
The girl, who was being instructed by her mother, nodded seriously and said, "Mom, I know. I will definitely study hard."
"Don't think girls are so special. Look at the princess. She has done so much for us ordinary people and saved so many people. So as long as you are willing to learn, you can acquire skills."
"Mom, I know."
The mother and daughter we are talking about were the ones who had to flee when there was a flood in the village.
Later, her family returned and the people from the prefectural government arranged a new village for them to live in, with a new house and new fields.
The whole family is grateful to the princess and Lord Su.
When she learned that the princess had opened a girls' academy, she decided to bring her daughter to study without hesitation.
Because it was a girls' academy, even if one did not have money to pay tuition, one could just go to the princess's workshop or shop to help out after graduation.
Anyway, the princess pays a lot of money.
Does this mean that I can still find a job after studying for free?
Ordinary people like them have received favors from the princess, so they naturally believe in her.
What's more, he is also a disciple of the princess. If he goes out, he will be looked up to by others.
There was also a father and mother next to them blessing their daughter and saying all kinds of things.
"I heard that the princess values character the most, so don't worry, as long as we are kind and upright, everything will be fine."
"Yes, there is also an interview. Your father works in the princess's workshop. This interview is actually just asking you some questions. Just answer truthfully. Don't be afraid."
There was also a village where several families sent their daughters for interviews. Everyone knew each other and encouraged each other generously.
"Our princess is so kind, she will definitely let you in to study."
"Yes, yes, this is a rare opportunity to learn. I must study hard. I heard that the princess even invited an embroidery master to teach us."
"And there's also Mr. Confucius, a great scholar of our time. He personally came to teach us how to read and write..."
