I just didn't expect the county lady to be so easy to talk to.
"Well, everyone go back and tell the people around you about this. We'll start harvesting the cotton in seven days, and then we'll weigh it and pay you directly so that everyone can rest assured. Also, during the days of harvesting cotton, have the yamen runners patrol the streets a few more times to prevent people who sell cotton from being targeted." Wang Jinhe said after thinking for a moment.
Everything he said was done with the people in mind.
"yes."
After seeing off the county magistrate and others, Wang Jinhe went to call Chen Jinnian, Lin Zien and others over.
"Don't you have anyone more flexible? Let them come to see me, and let them be responsible for harvesting the cotton from now on."
"Madam, you have a few people who are capable, and the others need experience." Chen Jinnian said after a moment of silence.
“I’m here too.”
"Then let them work together one-on-one, and finally call a team of soldiers to help transport the cotton to the workshop."
In half a year, the older girls in the academy have mastered the use of spinning machines and looms. They left the school and went to the workshop a month ago. Of course, this was according to their wishes. Those who still wanted to learn more in the academy have not been sent there yet.

"We'll go give the order now."
"Do you know where cotton is grown most?"
"Yes, the towns around Linjiang Town have the most of them."
"Then we'll go over there and take a look."
"Madam, why didn't you tell the young master about this?" Chen Jinnian couldn't help but ask.
She plans to go to Linjiang to check on the cotton harvest. Does the young master really agree
"I will tell him when I get back that I plan to take the students of the academy on a study tour." Wang Jinhe asked after thinking for a while.
"Study tour?"
"Well, they spend quite a bit of time in classes here. Although they do participate in things like planting and harvesting on weekdays, they are all our own. They cannot understand the real feelings of the people." Wang Jinhe said after thinking for a while.
Chen Jinnian and the others looked at each other and immediately understood what Wang Jinhe meant.

"Although our academy was only opened this year, there are indeed many good candidates for officialdom. Some of them are commoners, of course, but some are children of wealthy families. Even if they have labor classes on weekdays, it is no different from playing for them. So what we need to do is to let these people truly understand how difficult it is for ordinary people to make money, and the happiness and satisfaction they feel after making money."
The more you get in touch with and understand, the more you will know what to do in the future.
Do officials become officials just to bring honor to their family, or do they want to do things for the people? Do they want to make the people's lives better
These are questions for children to think about.
"Indeed, if all children are like this, then Xuan Kingdom will surely become powerful in the future."
"That's right, so some officials need to be trained from a young age."
"Madam is right."
"Go and get the people ready. Lin Zien, you go with me this time. Chen Jinnian and Chifeng, you two stay at home. Now go and call all the people you think are suitable. Ask those nearby to go back home. Once you go there, they can't come back until the cotton is harvested." Wang Jinhe gave the orders.
"yes."
After the three left, Wang Jinhe went to find Su Yu and told her his thoughts.

After listening to this, Su Yu nodded in agreement: "That's fine too."
"After I send Xiaobao and the others to the academy tomorrow, I will discuss it with the dean and other teachers. But I think Xiaobao and the others may be excited." Apart from the capital and the county towns here, these children have never been anywhere else.
"You are right."
The next day, Su Yu personally sent Xiaobao and the others to the academy. Xiaobao and Xiaozhi looked at him strangely: "Dad, are you not busy anymore? Why are you personally sending us to the academy today?"
Su Yu raised an eyebrow and looked at her son, smiling and asked, "Why don't I send you off myself?"
"Not really, but you and mom are busy now, so you definitely won't send us to the academy." Xiaobao said firmly.
"Dad must have something to discuss with the dean and the teacher." Xiaozhi said from the side.
Su Yu shook her head in amusement: "You two little brats are really the ones who are wrong. I really have something to do here today."
"Really? Dad, can you tell us about it first?" Xiaobao asked expectantly.
Even Xiaozhi and Changle looked at Su Yu curiously, waiting for his answer.
However, Su Yu did not plan to tell them at this time: "You will know later. I will definitely not tell you now."
Xiaobao and Xiaozhi asked a few more times, but gave up when they saw that Su Yu really would not tell them. However, the younger ones were still discussing this matter.
After sending Xiaobao and the others to the academy, Su Yu went to see the dean.
"Why did the prince come here today?"
"I came here to discuss something with the dean." Su Yu told the dean about Wang Jinhe's idea.
After careful consideration, the dean nodded in agreement: "This is a good idea, but the safety factor will increase with more people."
"It's okay, just let the soldiers follow when the time comes." Besides, if they went there, Nan Qiao and the others would not stay here, so the child's safety would not be a problem.
When the dean heard Su Yu say that, he naturally nodded in agreement: "Since the prince has said so, I have nothing to refuse, so I will do as the prince wishes."
"Okay, today the dean will tell the children about the matter and ask them to tell their families. We will then set off directly from the academy and will be gone for about ten days." It would certainly take more than ten days to harvest cotton, but ten days was enough for the children.
"I'll arrange this later."

"Then I'll go back and make preparations."
After Su Yu left the academy, the dean had a faint smile on his face. This princess's ideas are indeed different from others, but the children raised in this way will also be different.
fine.
At noon that day, the dean asked all the teachers to tell all the children about this matter.
Xiaobao and the others were excited to hear the news.
Xiaobao's classmates looked at their excitement and asked in surprise: "Su Ziqin, do you know what cotton is? We have never seen it before."
"Knowing that this is what my mother grows, it's so comfortable to use it to make clothes and quilts."
"We also went to pick cotton ourselves, but we probably won't be able to see it this time. If you want to see it, mom and I will take you there early next year so you can pick it yourself."
Xiaozhi stood by and added: "We picked them ourselves last year. It was tiring but satisfying."
"Then we must try it next year. Su Ziqin, we are counting on you."
"good."
That afternoon, after Xiaobao and the others returned, they told Wang Jinhe about this matter one by one. The latter looked at them in surprise after listening.
