This news not only spread in Xianyang, but also quickly spread to various counties.
This is especially true in counties where elementary schools have already been built and are waiting to open.
The local people were all crazy.
With such cheap tuition and no entry threshold restrictions, ordinary people can also sign up.
Even girls can enroll in school.
This caused the entire Qin State to fall into this trend.
Let’s talk about Hanzhong County first. As the county town closest to Xianyang, it naturally built a primary school early on.
Not only were there any in prefectures and counties, but several were also built in county towns.
The boys and girls who had been sponsored by Lu Jing and Zhao Jun to go to school were suddenly very excited.
Especially the girls, who only discovered when they started school later that as one of the few girls who could already read, they could directly learn higher knowledge.
Just as Lord Zhao once told them, opportunities come to those who are prepared.
I just didn't expect this opportunity to come so soon.
"Du Jiang, have you heard? The news they spread about building a primary school is true. We have one in Xincheng County."
"I remember your son is just fourteen years old this year, right? Go and see if you can still sign up."
In Xincheng County, a sister-in-law hurried into the field to deliver the message to Du Jiangshi.
At that time, Du Shaozheng was working in the fields with his mother.
The boy was no longer the short and petite boy he was a few years ago. He had grown into a young teenager, but his face was still dark and his clothes were ragged.
Upon hearing the news, Du Jiang immediately dropped the hoe and dragged her son to the county regardless of anything.
At the same time, there are many other people doing the same thing.
All county government offices and newly built primary schools were almost overcrowded.
In Xianyang, the situation is even worse, after all, there are so many people here.
Zhao Jun, Qing Liu and many others took part in the battle, but it still took several days to explain the matter clearly to everyone.
"Sir, these people are so enthusiastic."
After a busy day, Qingliu collapsed exhausted on a chair in the Nei Shi Mansion, his voice hoarse.
"I can't help it. Everyone cares."
Zhao Jun had already expected such a scene, but he was still tired.
"Fortunately, all the explanations are now completed, but we should still be busy on the day of registration."
Fusu was also very tired sitting on the chair on the other side.
But even though it was hard work, he felt more excited and relieved.
"Yes, today is March 28th. Registration is from April 1st to 3rd, and school starts on April 15th. I can already imagine the huge crowds when registration begins."
Qingliu imagined the scene in his mind.
"It should be easier when we register later. We won't have to explain it then. The school will have teachers to do it."
Zhao Jun slumped in his chair and sighed deeply.
She had already sent out the message to all counties and prefectures to recruit primary school teachers.
The requirements for primary school teachers are not that high. Besides, there are textbooks, so it is generally enough to teach according to the books.
The enrollment brochures received by each county also indicate the registration and school start times.
So for the next half month, all the people were busy signing up or discussing.
In Fangling County, Hanzhong, the registration for Fangling Primary School has been completed.
Fangling County itself has an educational foundation, and almost all children of appropriate age have participated in the registration.
Fortunately, when the school was built, the number of local children was surveyed according to Xianyang’s order, otherwise the place might not be big enough.
"Brother, our registration has been approved and school will start in a few days."
In the field, a dark-skinned boy was running and shouting.
This person was Xiaobao, who had just turned seven years old. Walking in front of him were his two older brothers.
"Xiaobao, we all know this, run slower."
Dabao is now twelve years old and looks quite like an older brother.
The three brothers walked together, talking and laughing.
"Excuse me, is this the way to Xianyang?"
The young man, who was in his twenties, was wearing a long gray cloth gown and carrying a small bag on his back, looking like a traveler.
Dabao reacted quickly and answered.
"Yes, just keep going straight along this cement road."
The boy pointed the way very politely.
The young man smiled gently and thanked him.
"By the way, can I ask one more question?"
After getting the answer, the young man did not leave immediately but stood there and continued asking.
Dabao stood in the front to protect his younger brothers and glanced at the young man in front of him.
He looked very gentle and had a smile on his face, so he shouldn't be a bad person. So Dabao nodded.
"Excuse me, I've heard many people discussing the topic of elementary school registration and the start of school along the way. I don't know what's going on. I'm from another place, so I don't know much about it. I hope you can help me understand."
The man spoke in an elegant manner and looked like a scholar. Dabao answered quickly after listening to him.
"That's right, the three of us brothers just came back from signing up."
The two younger brothers behind him also kept nodding their heads.
"How is it possible?"
"How do you make money with such low tuition? And can girls also enroll?"
Zhang Liang was very shocked. He heard many people discussing it along the way, but he never thought that things would be like this.
He asked several questions without frowning.
Xiaobao, who was standing behind, couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"How can we know if you ask so many questions? Anyway, as long as we can go to school and the price is cheap, isn't that enough?"
"Besides, this is something made by Lord Zhao, so it must be good."
Xiaobao has now become a staunch supporter of Zhao Jun.
"Master Zhao, was he the one who proposed this elementary school?"
Zhang Liang had another question.
"We don't know any of this. You're going to Xianyang, right? Lord Zhao is in Xianyang. Maybe you'll find out when you get there. We'll be leaving first."
This man had so many questions that Dabao didn't want to get entangled with him. After saying that, he pulled his two younger brothers and ran away.
Zhang Liang stood there in silence for a while.
Forget it. I’m going to Xianyang right now. I should be able to get the answer there.
He sighed, turned around, looked at his surroundings and prepared to continue on his way.
Wait a moment.
Is this the direction the little kid just mentioned?
Forget it, I'll just ask passers-by as I walk.
Zhao Jun and others in Xianyang also successfully completed the enrollment plan of Xianyang Primary School.
During the three-day enrollment period, there were always people at the primary school gate.
Fortunately, the recruited teachers have already started their posts, otherwise they would be extremely busy.
After the three-day registration period, the school quickly conducted a statistics.
A total of 732 children in the whole of Xianyang signed up, including 310 girls.
This number greatly shocked several people.
Zhao Jun couldn't help but feel fortunate at this moment. Fortunately, the rapidly growing population in Xianyang was taken into consideration when the school was built.
Otherwise, it might not be able to accommodate so many children.
