"I know now why you want them to have a full meal in the school." Ning Wanjun took the towel handed by Qiuyue and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
After a physical education class, the students were staggering from exhaustion, but the princess only sweated a little, which made Xia Fan intuitively feel the other party's unfathomable physical strength.
"This move is also out of helplessness. Although they are all school-age children recruited from Jinxia City, their family backgrounds are different." He replied with a smile, "If we let them solve it at home, some of them will definitely go hungry. Come to class on your stomach.”
"But how much will it cost?" Qiuyue smacked her tongue. "It's free of charge for books, pens, ink and paper are provided. Now even three meals are provided by the school. Mr. Xia, I'm afraid this is not a long-term solution."
"If it were other cities, it would be true. But Jinxia City is different - as long as there is a way to turn these students into producers, the returns can far exceed the initial investment." He paused, "Of course, this The initial investment will be relatively long. Fortunately, the Wang family sponsored us and gave Jinxia the opportunity to carry out a comprehensive education."
The princess burst into laughter, "Sponsorship? It doesn't sound like a good thing."
"No way, it's obviously a perfectly normal word."
She was neither wearing a palace robe nor holding a sword. In order to play the role of an approachable teacher, she only wore a short-sleeved dress. Her hair was simply tied up with a red hairband, with a few strands stuck by sweat. With bangs, he looked like a high school student who had just participated in club activities and was about to go home.
"Huh? Are you looking at me?" Ning Wanjun noticed his gaze and turned around with her hands behind her back, "What do you think?"
"It's quite... natural."
"So you like this style?"
"What style?" Xia Fan raised his eyebrows.
"Young and energetic girl next door." Ning Wanjun shrugged, "Would you like me to introduce you to one?"
"It sounds like you know a lot of girls like this. No... why did you suddenly bring up this topic?" Xia Fan came back to his senses.
"I'm afraid the only one who can talk to me like this is a lawless and disrespectful listener like you, so what's wrong with talking about this?" Ning Wanjun said in a relaxed tone, "You have reached the age to start a family, right? ? I heard that after you have a family, it’s hard to run around. Or... do you already have someone you like? "
Someone you like...
Xia Fan subconsciously slowed down.
Looking at his expression, Ning Wanjun felt a strange feeling in her heart, which made her suddenly not want to talk about this topic anymore, "Well, since you don't mean it yet, just pretend that I didn't say it."
"Your Highness..." Qiuyue glanced at the princess in slight surprise.
"There are still many things in the villa waiting for me to go back and deal with. I'll go ahead and leave the finishing work of the school to you." Ning Wanjun waved her hand and led the guards out of the Privy Council Mansion.
Why did he suddenly leave in the middle of the conversation? Xia Fan touched his head, turned around and walked towards the student who was still lying on the ground breathing.
After that, they arranged dinner and answered questions from the students’ relatives. By the time all this was done, it was almost evening.
Judging from the excitement of most onlookers, he knew that the first day of classes at the school was enough to cause huge waves in the city.
Presumably, in the next few months or even half a year, the Secretariat School, open to all school-age children, will become the hottest topic on the streets, and it will gradually become one of the iconic symbols of Jinxia City in the future.
When the crowd in the mansion had almost dispersed, Fang Xiandao came over and stopped him, "Xia Fan, you actually deceived me."
Wait, what’s this opening line, “Did I?”
"You used those books as a condition of exchange for Qianzhi to make ice for you. I thought it was some kind of secret record that was not shared with others, but I didn't expect that you regarded it as enlightenment teaching and taught it openly in front of these people."
"If the divination doesn't work... it's not normal for the young master to be deceived - Awu."
Halfway through Qianzhi's words, Fang Xiandao pressed his head and forcibly shut his mouth.
"I never said they were secret records, right? And they are indeed the prerequisite for understanding the electromagnetic shock technique." Xia Fan spread his hands and said, "I don't know where to start talking about deception?"
Fang Xiandao sighed, obviously feeling cheated, but there was not much resentment in his heart. Of course, there is a reason for this that I misjudged its external rarity through the content of the book, but more importantly, the other party was able to treat them as an introductory course in the school and tell them in front of hundreds of people - and realize the value of this knowledge. People who are rich may not even have half of it.
No wonder the divination didn't work for him.
People who behave like this without any rules are probably the only ones in the world like Jinxia City.
"Even if you are right. But since there is first-level arithmetic, there must be higher-level content behind it, right? Especially the introduction to probability that you gave me last time."
"Yes, yes, but..." Xia Fan said deliberately. To be honest, it was okay to ask him to recall some introductory knowledge. The higher he went, the less he could remember. By the time he reached high school, he could only recall some fragments here and there. But if he doesn't say it, who will know? According to the pace of advancement of the course, this will only be a few years away.
"Do you still want the living dead?" Fang Xiandao suddenly lowered his voice, "I have communicated with the Fang Family Mansion, and now they have sent a living dead - the one who stood up during your lecture."
Xia Fan looked beyond Fang Xiandao and looked behind him. The black-haired girl was standing not far away, waiting. The setting sun shone from above the courtyard wall, casting a layer of gold along the outline of half of her body. This calm look is reminiscent of a long-dusted picture scroll.
"Is she the living dead sent to me by the Fang family?"
"You think so." Fang Xiandao snorted, "Listen clearly, this person's name is Qian Yan, and her status in the Fang family is extraordinary. She must have the intention of censoring Jinxia this time. There are already many people in the Fang family. I haven't sent out any living dead in years, so whether you can get the old lady's approval or not will most likely depend on what she wants."
"Hmm... This is quite a prudent approach." Xia Fan nodded.
"Let me remind you one more thing, don't try to lie in front of Qianyan, or show contempt."
"You don't want to say that she can read minds, do you?"
"That's not true, but there are rumors in the family that because she has lived for so long, she has already gained insight into people's hearts - anyone is no different from a piece of paper in front of her inspection." Fang Xiandao's tone was as if he was enjoying a good show. , "Anyway, I've brought it to you, and it's up to you."
