Chapter 792: Town School and Township Martial Arts Hall [2]

"Dad/Grandfather/Great-grandfather, Mr. Qin is coming out." His descendants hurriedly reminded him and went to help him stop the Qin family's vehicle.

Chief Lu and Village Chief Zhou came out with their men and shouted, "Master Pan, please be careful with your words and don't make any excessive demands on Master Qin."

No one knew what this stubborn and scolding old man was trying to do. He just stayed here and refused to leave. They asked him countless times, but the old man didn't say a word. His bad temper and mouth were harder than stone!

When he got tired of being asked questions, he even beat them with his cane.

There was no other way, they could only stay with him to prevent the old man from saying anything bad and bringing harm to the entire Taifeng Town.

"Don't worry, my two elder brothers." Grandpa Qin hurriedly asked Miao Bo to stop the car, lifted the car curtain and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about, Mr. Pan?"

After saying this, he got off the car and came in front of Mr. Pan.

This time, Old Student Pan stopped cursing and bowed to Grandpa Qin in a very formal manner, saying, "Master Qin, I have been waiting here specially to ask you to help us run a school in Taifeng Town."

"Grandson, you tell me..."

I’m old and it’s tiring to talk too much, so I’ll let my eldest grandson do the talking.

The eldest grandson of the Pan family bowed and said, "Master Qin, my grandfather had the idea of ​​opening a town school decades ago, but he was not strong enough to accomplish it. After you were appointed as an official, my grandfather felt that the time had come for our town to open a town school, so he took the liberty to stop the car and put forward this suggestion."

He hurriedly said, "We will not let the Qin family bear the cost of running the town school. We will just ask the Qin family to take the lead and gather all the villages in the town to discuss this matter together."

"If we can come to an agreement, the Pan family is willing to provide a piece of land to build a town school."

What?

The stubborn, scolding and stingy old man Pan is actually going to donate his land to everyone to run a town school!

Patriarch Lu and Village Chief Zhou were so shocked that they could hardly close their mouths... Over the years, if anyone owed him a penny as rent, the old man would make sarcastic remarks about your family and make it known to the whole town.

Now you want to give land?

Haha, the two of them were very suspicious that the old man had some conspiracy, such as taking the opportunity to get close to Brother Qin's family, and wanting to be a teacher to the Qin family's children, so that he could act like a teacher in front of the Qin family in the future!

Ah this?

I can only say that he is worthy of being taught by Mr. Pan, and he actually guessed half of it right.

But it has been old man Pan's lifelong wish to set up a town school and help the children of farmers.

"It's not that there are no potential candidates for the imperial examination among the children of farming families, but too many of them are buried. Let the children study more and go out to explore more, only then can their fate be changed."

"So setting up a town school to allow more children to go to school is the first step for rural children to change their fate."

"The Qin family has the ability and power to do so, so I have the audacity to stop the car and ask Sir Qin to help the children of Taifeng Town and help our farmers' children change their fate!"

"Dad, please be careful with your words." Pan Lao Da, who is about the same age as Grandpa Qin, wanted to cover Pan Lao Tongsheng's mouth.

How can a farmer's son change his fate?

Is it possible to say this?!

Just be content. Your father is much more cautious with his words than Uncle Qin.

Uncle Qin sneered: "Oh, change your fate? Old man, do you think changing your fate means studying? Do you think studying can get you into the imperial examination? Do you think that if you pass the imperial examination, you can live to take office? Do you know that the imperial examination quota can be..."

boom!

Grandpa Qin kicked him directly and interrupted him: "Shut up, if you keep talking nonsense, I will make you pay!"

Seeing this, Pan Lao Da's eyes changed when he looked at Pan Lao Tongsheng, full of admiration and respect: "Dad is really good at talking, no wonder he can become the only Tongsheng in our Taifeng Town."

As a result he was beaten.

Snapped!

Old student Pan slapped him in the face and said, "Boss, you are slandering the entire Taifeng Town. In all these years, Taifeng Town has only produced me as a student. Is this something to be proud of?!"

Such a shameful thing, but the boss talks about it as something to be proud of. He is truly ignorant and incompetent, and he doesn't even have the courage to change his fate!

Chief Lu and Village Chief Zhou both stepped back three meters before speaking: "Master Qin, Master Pan, both of you should calm down and stop arguing with the child... Setting up a town school is a big deal, why don't we pick a date and then make a long-term plan?"

Qin Xiaomi reminded in the car: "Grandpa, Patriarch Lu and Village Chief Zhou are right."

After hearing this, Grandpa Qin said to Old Student Pan, "Old Student Pan, I have heard your opinion. I will go and discuss this matter with the clerk. If possible, we can choose a day, gather the people of Taifeng Town, and discuss it in detail."

Mr. Pan seemed very anxious and obsessed about this matter. He was silent for a moment and said, "Then I will come to your house in three days to inquire about the results."

He bowed deeply again: "Please have mercy on me, Lord Qin. While the Qin family is so powerful, please do something for Taifeng Town. I will be grateful to you. I am willing to work like a cow or a horse in my next life to repay you for your kindness!"

"Mr. Pan, you are too kind. Don't worry, I will give you a reply within three days." Grandpa Qin helped Mr. Pan up and invited him, "Mr. Pan, can my family give you a ride?"

Old Man Pan refused: "No, there are a lot of descendants following me, and Master Qin's car can't accommodate them. I can just ask them to pull me back on a wooden wheelbarrow."

"Okay." Grandpa Qin didn't insist. After asking the two elders Zhou and Lu to get in the car, the vehicle started moving and headed towards the town.

In the car, Grandpa Qin asked them what they thought about setting up a town school.

The two elders were silent for a moment, and then they spoke frankly: "Although Mr. Pan may have embarrassed Lord Qin, setting up a town school is indeed a great thing that will benefit future generations."

"Of course we support it, and we are willing to contribute money and take responsibility, but if Lord Qin doesn't want to get involved in this matter, then..."

The two local elders really couldn't say the word "don't care".

Because this will harm the opportunities of future generations.

Grandpa Qin understood and said with a smile: "Don't make things difficult for me, my two elder brothers. I also want to set up a town school for our town. After all, we, the predecessors, live to create opportunities and conditions for future generations."

"Brother Qin, are you willing to run a town school?" The two elders were delighted: "Brother Qin is righteous and kind, and he is a great lucky star for our Taifeng Town, hahahaha!"

The laughter spread outside, and people who heard it on the street were startled and muttered: "Whose old man is this? He is laughing so wildly? Be careful not to get a stitch in the side."

Fortunately, the two elders didn't hear me, otherwise, with their temper, they would have stopped the car and scolded me.

Grandpa Qin was concerned about the town school, and something he felt was more necessary to do, which was to take Uncle Qin, Jiang Dalang and others directly to the Silifang to find the clerk.

He first talked about how Mr. Pan asked him to come forward and unite the whole town to run a town school.

Without waiting for the clerk to give his opinion, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Nong, do you think it's possible to set up a village martial arts hall in the town?"

The clerk was shocked: "Father-in-law wants to set up a village martial arts hall?"

Grandpa Qin nodded: "The spies have been lurking for nearly a hundred years. It is difficult for us to avoid a war with Dongmo. The court has also issued a ban on migration. None of us in Northeast Province can leave. We must save ourselves, especially our farmers."

"If we want to save ourselves and have the strength to fight the war, we have to learn martial arts and how to fight. Therefore, it is an urgent matter for counties and towns to open up village martial arts halls and open as many village martial arts halls as possible."

"You have foresight. Please analyze this matter for your father-in-law. Is it possible to do it? How can it be done? What is the method? What are the risks?"
