Half an hour later, the sketch of Linglong riding a horse was completed.
Fang Zheng took the painting, looked at it, and nodded with satisfaction.
Linglong rode on the horse in a heroic manner, looking forward with a determined gaze, and her 'cloak' fluttering behind her.
Thanks to a few students who caught the incident, they fanned Linglong hard with a palm-leaf fan.
Although the drawing was done in a hurry, the general idea is shown, and it can be modified in detail later.
After a careful inspection, Fang Zhengyi handed the painting to Mo Xiaohu and said, "Find someone to carefully carve it into a printing plate and send it to the Banshan Newspaper Office. It must be meticulous and no omissions can be made."
"Okay, sir. The plaque over there in the teaching building has been hung. Would you like me to take you to have a look?"
"Walking."
....
He hurried to the teaching building with the three girls.
The previously idle building now has a plaque.
The three words "Linglong Tower" were clearly displayed on it, but Zhao Linglong was still at a loss as to what exactly was being taught there.
However, looking at the plaque with her name engraved on it, she couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in her heart.
Fang Zhengyi boasted: "How efficient am I?"
"The area here has been demarcated and the name has been chosen. It will probably take some time to customize the charter of the girls' school, and then we can recruit students."
"The first batch of students will be enrolled for free. Not only that, I will even give them money. Linglong, what do you think?"
Linglong stared at the plaque in a trance and asked, "Is what Lord Fang said true?"
Fang Zheng nodded.
Of course, there is no empty talk. If you want to enroll women in school, you must spend a lot of money.
Nowadays, women are considered as "money-losing goods" in the eyes of ordinary people. If it costs money to go to school, it would be impossible to recruit one.
Not only that, I'm afraid he will have to create further jobs for women in the future.
These things are extremely difficult to meet in the current market.
"I will pay out of my own pocket, and give out 10,000 taels of silver in advance for the girls to attend school. I will not stop subsidizing them until the women taught in this school are fully capable of earning money independently. As long as I have money, I will definitely help them to the end."
Listening to Fang Zheng's decisive words.
Linglong, Chu Qinghan and Chu Youyi were all shocked and burst into tears.
Linglong lowered her head, feeling touched, "Why did Lord Fang do this..."
Fang Zhengyi turned around and put his hands behind his back, leaving the three women with a dashing back view, and sighed softly: "This world shouldn't be like this."
"From ancient times to the present, most women have been treated as property, and their dignity has been trampled upon. In addition, there is a folk custom that if a boy is born, people will congratulate each other, but if a girl is born, the baby will be killed. This is a loss of morality and a corruption of human nature."
"When I was a local official, I had to personally take charge and crack down on bad practices. Moreover, I am now in a high position..."
"I think my life is all about the welfare of the people of the world and striving to promote world change, that's all."
Although Mr. Fang pretends to be nice, he really speaks from his heart.
But this light sentence brought a shock to the three women that was no different from a bomb.
Everyone has heard the nice words, but now it requires real investment.
Is that fake? Such a great sentiment, such a noble character.
Fang Zheng turned around and saw the admiration in Chu Qinghan's eyes, and he couldn't help feeling a little flattered.
Little guy, aren’t you crazy about this?
Then, he reached out his hand to Linglong Shen again, lowered his voice by two points, and said in a deep voice: "Linglong, are you willing to join my team?"
Appreciation of Mr. Fang's body language
team?
Linglong felt a little awkward when she first heard this, but it soon passed.
A sense of mission and a sense of nobility suddenly ignited in her heart.
What kind of business is this?
You should feel honored to have the opportunity to join. Can you refuse?
Looking at Fang Zheng's outstretched hand, Linglong wavered...
"I...if Master Fang wants me to help, I am willing to do so. But I have one request. If I want to go home, I hope Master can let me go home."
Fang Zheng was delighted. "Why wouldn't I agree to such a small thing? As long as you are willing, you can go home anytime. Not only that, I will take care of all your food, clothing and daily expenses in the capital, and pay you your salary on time every month."
Linglong waved her hands awkwardly, "No, no."
Fang Zheng said without question, "It must be used. You don't need to say anything about this. Let's just do it!"
"From today on, you are the first female student in this school. As for any subsequent activities, just follow my arrangements."
"Just relax these few days and let Qinghan and the others have fun in the capital and try to get better."
"Thank you, Master Fang."
......
The next day, Fang Zheng rushed to the newspaper office alone.
I haven't been to the newspaper office for a long time, but it's still busy and as usual there are many new faces.
Inside the room, Fang Zhengyi and Xie Xian sat opposite each other.
Fang Zheng took a sip of tea and asked, "How is the newspaper going recently?"
"Everything is normal, but many people have left. They are all preparing for the exam. However, we are recruiting new people very smoothly."
"But..." Xie Xian hesitated.
"how?"
"The new employees are not very obedient and keep clamoring for a salary increase." Xie Xian said helplessly.
Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Two taels a month plus so many bonuses and holiday benefits, and you still think it's not enough. How can a newcomer have such a big appetite?"
Xie Xian nodded solemnly: "Two taels... is indeed a lot. But to be honest, the prices have increased quite fast in recent years."
