Chapter 1636: Little Black and Big Cat
....
Translator: Lonelytree
When Little Black heard Little Green’s words, its round eyes rolled coldly and disdainfully.
It was very dissatisfied with this. Then, it slid its snake body closer to Little
Green. It stretched its head out and caught the mouse. It placed it beside Little Green’s feet. The mouse, which was not dead but was on the verge of death, gritted its teeth.
Little Green jumped up and roared at Little Black,” Little Black, what are you doing?”
Little Black ignored the angry Little Green. It threw the big rat on the ground and leisurely moved its tail, slipping away.
Little Green was so angry that he looked at the big rat under his feet and could only dodge and stomp his feet.
It was really funny.
The fearless Little Green was afraid of that rat.
This fact made Jiang Zhennan and everyone in Lin Family Garden burst into laughter.
Ever since Little Green appeared, it was fair, fat, cute, smart, and very likeable. However, this child was a naughty child who climbed up the wall and tore off the tiles all day long.
However, no one could bear to scold him, let alone beat him.
Therefore, whenever Little Green smashed a hole in a wall, went up to the roof, or removed a tile, they would shake their heads and smile. Then, they would undo the damage he had done.
Of course, people didn’t let Little Green do these things at first because they were worried that he would get hurt when he played. Later on, Lin Yuelan didn’t stop him from playing. She even told the others not to stop him. Later on, even Lin Deshan and Doctor Zhang turned a blind eye and let Little Green play.
Of course, Little Green knew what to do.
It wouldn’t go too far and cause people trouble. He wouldn’t cause too much damage. Otherwise, it would take too much time to repair it.
To the villagers, time was money.
Other than working time, they would use the extra time to study!
Many people had already moved into Taoyuan Village, and the village was getting bigger and bigger.
Lin Yuelan immediately set up a school in the village. All children above the age of six, whether they were servants or villagers, could go to the school to learn how to read as long as they were willing.
This made the servants and villagers in Lin Garden especially grateful to Lin
Yuelan!
The appearance of the dictionary, which was printed and distributed by the imperial court, had been implemented in every village of the Longyan Kingdom. Each village had at least two copies of the dictionary, and the chief of the village had taken care of it on their behalf.
In the early stages, the imperial court would send people who could read and use a dictionary to every county and village to teach them how to use a dictionary.
Each village would send at least two people to learn how to read the dictionary. After learning, they would have to teach the children between the ages of seven and sixteen. Three months later, the imperial court would send people to each village to inspect the results.
Anyone who neglects their duties and slacks off will be severely punished if they are caught!
Time flew by, and two years had pa.s.sed.
The effect of this was obvious.
Because they were literate, many people would not get cheated anymore.
In any case, Longyan Country was developing at a visible speed because of its literacy.
Moreover, because of the improved methods of planting crops provided by Lin Yuelan, there were no more hungry people in Longyan Country.
Oh, even if there were hungry people, it was because of laziness. They could not blame the court system.
However, for these starving people, if they were able-bodied, the government would not care, even if they starved to death.
In other words, they deserved to starve to death!
Of course, if the family had no capable workforce, the government would provide a monthly subsidy according to the number of people in the family. Each person would receive two catties of rice and eight catties of coa.r.s.e grain per month!
In the past two years, the people of Longyan Kingdom were all grateful for the Emperor’s wisdom.
It was because of the current Emperor that they were able to live a healthy life today, eat their fill, and wear warm clothes.
Because of this, they believed that their days would get better and better in the future.
In two years, Longyan Country had truly embarked on the road of prosperity.
This was all Lin Yuelan’s credit.
However, Lin Yuelan didn’t want to take the credit.
This was her agreement with the Emperor!
Not only that, as a person from the modern era, Lin Yuelan was very clear about the importance of a country’s business development.
Only when the business developed could the economy go up..
