Chen Xuanxuan's words were well-reasoned and logical. The Ma family members who came to pick up the children thought about it and felt that what she said was very reasonable and touched their hearts.
After thanking Chen Xuanxuan profusely, they returned home happily with their children.
After working hard at home for a few days and preparing all the things to be sold, the Ma family sent out more than 20 people to the surrounding towns and started selling buns there.
To do a business like making buns, you don't actually need a lot of connections. You don't even need a lot of capital.
Selling buns is actually a hard job in nature.
The Ma family, all of them are country folk, and country folk are generally very hardworking.
They suffer every day, shed tears and bleed, but they never complain to others, and they never cry to others when they see someone.
With their unique resilience, the Ma family gradually had their own small stalls selling steamed buns in several surrounding towns.
After the business got off the ground, their family did make a lot of money.
There are relatively few people selling steamed buns in this area of 100 miles.
If you count carefully, there are only a few of them.
Relying on their own advantages, the Ma family can make hundreds of yuan every few days from the three steamed bun stalls at home. Even if they paid protection fees to those thugs, their family's life was much better than before compared to the farmers who only knew how to dig for food in the fields all day long.
Anyone with a pair of eyes would know that since their child learned the craft from Chen Xuanxuan, their family's life has gradually improved.
It's only been a few months, but the other party's life is booming. Including the patriarch of their own family, their family also goes out to do business and sell buns every few days. The people in Gujiagang are no longer focusing on the 12 piglets.
They only focus on Chen Xuanxuan's family craft.
However, there are only two apprentices who have learned her craft.
According to the rules that old lady Liu said, if you want to learn the skill of making buns from her daughter, you must pay a tuition fee of 500 coins.
500 coins!
That's 500 coins!
This old lady Liu's daughter is so mean.
Although the villagers cursed every day, they knew in their hearts that if making buns is really a family craft, and it is the kind of craft that is passed down from generation to generation, then they spend 500 coins, which is actually quite worthwhile.
After all, outside, for example, in the county, in the town, if you want to find a master to learn a craft, those apprentices have worked for the master for at least 10 years for nothing.
Being an apprentice is like being someone else's grandson.
The master can beat or scold you at will, so how can an apprentice say bad things about his master?
Because those who have been out of the house know that it costs too much to learn a skill to make a living outside, they dare not offend Chen Xuanxuan openly at this time, let alone point at her nose and scold her in front of her.
...
Chen Xuanxuan found that those relatives who liked to make trouble in their house did not talk about their family all day long, nor did they curse that their 12 piglets turned into sick pigs in one day, and she felt much more relieved.
Sure enough, if she wanted to deal with someone, she didn't have to confront them face to face.
Those villagers had too many small thoughts. As for
her, she didn't have to argue with them, let alone fight with them.
After all, she was alone and powerless.
She lived in Gujiagang, and those who were older than her husband always liked to take advantage of their age.
If she said something unpleasant and made them angry, her reputation in this place would be ruined.
No matter what, this feudal era still ruled the world with filial piety. She didn't want to be known for being disrespectful, disobedient, and rebellious to her elders.
However, if her own status was much higher than these people, ... even if she had a lot of money and made a lot of money, these people would not dare to say anything to her.
Thinking of this, Chen Xuanxuan couldn't help but take a pen and paper and write down some plans she would implement in the future.
For example, she must let her children go to school.
She had already discussed the matter of her children going to school with old lady Liu.
Old lady Liu also agreed.
She said that if she really wanted her children to have a promising future and really wanted to send her children to a private school to study with a teacher, then she could say a few words to the clan leader of Chenjia Village.
Then, her children could go to Chenjia Village to study in the clan school.
No matter how good Chenjia Village is, it has produced many scholars.
300 years ago, there was a Jinshi.
More than 200 years ago, there were three Juren.
In the past 100 years, their Chenjia Village has produced more than 10 scholars.
At present, the collection of books in the ancestral hall of Chenjia Village has more than 500 books.
More than 500 books, for many scholars, this is an astonishing number.
Scholars in the county, including those in Tongzhen, sometimes come here because of its reputation.
Accompanied by the clan leader, they spend some money to copy books in the ancestral hall of Chenjia Village.
Thinking that Chenjia Village has a rich foundation, Chen Xuanxuan thinks that her son should go there to study. Thinking
of this, Chen Xuanxuan couldn't help but calculate that if the pigs can really grow to 200 kilograms next year and can be sold at a suitable price, then she will have to let her third and fourth sons go to Chenjia Village to take a look.
Whoever is more talented and smarter will have the opportunity to study.
If the IQ and EQ of these two sons are the same, then she will try her best, grit her teeth, and work hard with the whole family to make sure that both sons can study, pass the imperial examinations, and become successful.
After living here for nearly a year, Chen Xuanxuan has fully realized why the ancients often said, "Everything is inferior, only studying is superior."
Because here, only by studying and becoming an official can they completely change their status and change their social situation.
Being a farmer who digs for food every day will not lead to much.
Even if you are a wealthy businessman who can rival a country, if you don’t have social status and can’t get in touch with people in the government, no matter how much money you make, it’s all in vain, and it’s all for others. When
thinking of this, Chen Xuanxuan began to write and draw on the notebook.
It has always been the case that the poor are good at literature and the rich are good at martial arts.
To study, you must have money.
People without money cannot afford to study.
After all, if a child wants to study, he has to spend money in all aspects.
