Chapter 440: Sickly Elder Brother - Using Money for Construction

Not to mention that Jiayi didn't bring back a drop of wine when he returned to the capital, Lu Kuci listened to Jiayi's description of what happened with a confused look on his face. He was a little bewildered. Why was he angry?

Lu Kuci originally wanted to find Yun Mo to ask for clarification, but due to the drought in the west, spring planting was delayed again and again. The emperor asked him to go and see the situation and find a solution to the problem. He could only send a letter to Yun Mo and ask someone to deliver a large box of tribute cheese and tea.

Yun Mo accepted the gift as usual and put the letter aside. He did not reply or send any gifts. Jia Yi did not dare to say much. After waiting for two days without receiving any letter, he knew Yun Mo's attitude and had to leave alone.

On the day Jiayi left, Yunmo looked at the clear sky and made a mental divination. Then he brought out a box of silver bricks and started working on three things simultaneously: repairing the canal, making a waterwheel, and building a school.

He paid enough money, and there was an endless stream of people willing to come to work. Yun Mo simply recruited many people, and everything was done in less than two months. He did not lay off the workers, but instead built several wells for the village.

Two schools were built, one at the entrance of the village. All the people who came to the clan school were men.

One was built in the center of the village, and embroiderers, musicians and literate women were hired to teach embroidery, piano playing, reading, accounting and some simple self-defense skills. All the people who came and went were women.

Moreover, attending the women's college is free, with free food and accommodation, and two sets of clothes every quarter.

Families who were originally reluctant to send their daughters to school immediately sent their daughters to women's colleges after hearing about the treatment.

With food, shelter, and clothes to wear, and the chance to learn a craft, families with a little spare money would be reluctant to send their daughters to learn a craft.

Some families were not satisfied with taking advantage of others and sent their one- or two-year-old girls to girls' colleges. When the dean of the college came to find Yun Mo, Yun Mo seemed to have anticipated this. Not only did he ask people to send the children back, he also made a rule that girls could only enter the girls' college when they were three years old.

Those who send their children in early will be prohibited from entering Cui's College once their children are verified.

Well, both academies were funded by Yun Mo, and even the money for inviting the teacher was paid by Yun Mo. If he said that he could not enter, it would be useless even if the clan leader came.

Yun Mo paid for the repair of canals, the digging of wells, the construction of schools, the hiring of teachers, and the provision of food, clothing, and shelter for the girls. The clan also had more than a dozen waterwheels. The villagers benefited greatly, so they naturally listened to Yun Mo's words. There were a few troublemakers, but they were suppressed by their families and did not dare to act rashly.

Yun Mo's girls' school ran smoothly. After all, no one wanted to anger Yun Mo and ask him to take back the convenience he had given them.

As for the people in the nearby villages, Yun Mo couldn't take care of them. He could only try his best to take care of the people in the Cui family. You know, there are hundreds of people in the Cui family alone, and there are nearly a hundred girls. Just raising these girls is a huge expense every year. For this reason, he specially bought a shop on the street, and used all the rent to run the women's college, so that even if he left in the future, the women's college could continue to operate.

When everything was done, Lu Kuci's letter arrived again.

After two or three months, Yun Mo finally read his letter.

The letter was full of complaints, telling how he had led the laborers to dig canals in the west so that the people could have water, and how he had gone through untold hardships to allow the people to plant their crops. He also said that he was sick and missed his wine very much.

Yun Mo couldn't help but laugh. This guy even resorted to self-torture for a few jars of wine.
