As Chi Dongyi said this, he was already thinking about which house in the village could be vacated for the new master's family to live in.
They even thought that if all else failed, the Master's family would have to live in the ancestral hall for the time being.
After the soil thaws next spring, everyone can work a little harder to build one for him.
Qin Mu couldn't make that decision for someone else, so he immediately replied, "I have someone in mind, but I can't make that decision for him."
So, I'll have Ah Kai ask him what his opinion is when he goes down the mountain.
If you're willing to come, then let's add a little something to what you've already said.
During the disaster, food and lodging were provided, and 500 coins were given per month.
Once the disaster is over, when people want to leave, you must not stop them.
If you're willing to stay, then you can discuss it yourselves.
You should know that the teachers in those private schools down the mountain earn much more than that each month.
Students were required to send gifts during the three festivals and six holidays, and each student received a monthly allowance of one hundred coins.
Or you could pay it on an annual basis, a certain amount per year.
Moreover, the person I can summon to be my teacher must be someone with official rank and reputation.
Three hundred coins? I really can't bring myself to ask for that."
Upon hearing that the other party was a person with official rank, Chi Dong was immediately delighted.
Although he was a rough man, he admired learned people, especially those who could pass the imperial examinations.
Just like before, he was proud that Chijia'ao had a scholar as a son-in-law.
He immediately made a decision: "If the other party is a scholar and is willing to come here, then we will do as you say."
Qin Mu nodded: "Okay, then I'll ask A-Kai about this. By the way, there are seven people in his family: his parents, his sister, his wife, and his children."
When Chi Dong heard that there weren't many people, he readily agreed.
"Okay, I'll let the others know first."
He was a shrewd man, and after hearing Qin Mu's words, he guessed that the matter was very likely to succeed.
Therefore, he needs to make arrangements first, lest the guests arrive without even a place to stay.
The Chi family ancestral hall is large; if he really can't find a place, he'll have to call someone to partition it off first.
Not long after Chi Dong entered the ancestral hall, Chen Kai came out again.
Qin Mu faced him without any hesitation and stood directly under the eaves.
Upon seeing someone, he would say, "Ah Kai, after you go down the mountain, take the charcoal to the yamen first."
After settling the accounts, I'll go to Shen Zhaochen's house first. I'll tell him about the impending disaster.
Ask him if he would be willing to bring his family to Chijia'ao for refuge.
If he was willing, he could tell him that Chijia'ao wanted to hire a tutor, but because they were poor, they couldn't afford much tuition.
Currently, food and lodging can be provided, and an additional 300 coins will be given each month.
Once the disaster is over, he can leave with his family if he doesn't want to stay.
Of course, if he feels the amount of silver is too little, you can say that you are also here and will try to get him five hundred coins.
If the people of Chijia'ao don't have enough money, they can't give it to them.
Even if I have to pay out of my own pocket, I'll cover it so he can rest assured!
Shen Kai was dumbfounded upon hearing this: "No, Brother Mu. If you call Shen Zhaochen over, can you still stay?"
If you don't stay, what will happen to that person?
Shen Zhaochen has the title of Xiucai (a scholar who passed the lowest level of the imperial examinations). Since the people of Chijia'ao have invited him to be their teacher, Aye and the others will definitely come to learn from him.
When that time comes, there will be no need for Brother Mu anymore. Will Brother Mu, who is "useless," still be able to stay?
If we can't stay, how can we cultivate feelings?
