Rebirth of a Cute Kid's Parallel World Adventures

Chapter 64 Discussing Village Development with Grandpa

For the past two days, everyone has been gathered in the space, meditating quietly to stabilize their cultivation. The distribution of treasures was delayed because of the cultivation techniques.

The treasure hunt was very fruitful, yielding a large number and variety of treasures.

Just as the vines were about to distribute these treasures,

The old aunt and the wolf king said in unison, "We don't have anything urgently needed right now. You can keep all the treasures for now and come back to retrieve them when we need them later."

Upon hearing this, Hua Yeman pondered for a moment and then discussed it with her second sister, younger sister, the wolf king, and her aunt.

After some discussion, Hua Yeman proposed that all the gold and silver treasures, which had nothing to do with cultivating immortality, be used for village construction.

Projects such as building roads and bridges are being implemented to improve the quality of life for the villagers.

The wolf king and his aunt both stated, "Whatever decision you make, we will fully support you!"

The second and youngest sisters echoed, "Doing good deeds and accumulating virtue is human nature, and doing good is everyone's inescapable responsibility."

Seeing this, the three sisters, Huayeman and her brother, were overjoyed. They immediately went to their grandfather and explained to him in detail their idea of ​​funding the construction of bridges and roads in the village.

Upon hearing this, Grandpa's face immediately lit up with a gratified smile, and he repeatedly praised, "It is a blessing for the villagers that you children can do such a good deed!"

So they went to find the village elders that very night. After discussing the details with them, the elders said that the village didn't even have an ancestral hall anymore.

Ask Grandpa to go home and ask if it's possible to build an ancestral hall. As soon as Grandpa got home, he immediately told the three sisters, Huayeman, about the plan to build an ancestral hall.

Hua Ye Man solemnly said, "Alright, let's start the repairs then. This bridge, this road, and that ancient ancestral hall were all funded by the three Hua Ye Man sisters."

"Not only that, I have an even grander plan in mind—to build a school! However, before that, Huaye Man has a small request."

"From this day forward, everyone in our village, regardless of gender, is welcome to come and study at this school."

"If boys from this village want to study here, their tuition is free, but they need to bear their own living expenses."

"Girls are even luckier; not only do they not have to pay tuition, but their room and board are also taken care of."

"There are many different classes in this school. The first is the literacy class, which aims to teach some basic literacy skills, enough to meet daily needs. Usually, it only takes one to two years to complete the course."

"As for those who serve as literacy class teachers, even students who have passed the preliminary examination are qualified to do the job."

"In addition, there were special examination classes for the imperial examinations. To become a teacher in these classes, one needed to have at least the title of Xiucai (a scholar who passed the county-level imperial examinations)."

"In addition, considering the importance of physical fitness, the school has also specially set up a martial arts class."

"In the initial stage, Huaye Man thought it would be good to invite some of the best students that the Wolf King had taught to serve as teachers."

"The wolf king first taught them the relevant skills, and then they patiently and meticulously guided the other students to practice martial arts."

"It is worth mentioning that Huaye Man is also preparing to establish a cultivation class full of mystery."

"In the early stages of this class's development, we can invite our cousins ​​who embarked on the path of cultivation with us to come out of seclusion and teach, so that more people with aspirations can explore the wondrous world of immortality."

Just then, Grandpa, seemingly lost in thought, asked again, "What if someone from another village wants to come and attend school?" Upon hearing this,

Without hesitation, Hua Yeman replied, "If someone from another village wants to study here, then of course they need to pay tuition! Just think about it, it costs us a lot of money to hire a teacher."

Then, Grandpa's gaze became even more profound, and he asked, "According to what you said before about building an ancestral hall and opening a school, we should immediately start organizing people to begin construction?"

Faced with her grandfather's barrage of questions, Hua Yeman calmly replied, "When construction begins, as for manpower..."

"First, each household is required to send at least one strong and able-bodied male laborer to assist in the construction of ancestral halls, the repair of schools, the building of bridges, and the paving of roads."

"As for the major undertaking of building the ancestral hall, the meticulous renovation of the school, the construction of the bridge spanning the river and connecting the two banks, and the paving of the wide roads,"

"All the building materials needed will be borne by the three of us sisters without reservation."

"However, on the other hand, what if you happen to encounter elderly people who are lonely and living alone, or in special circumstances where there is really no adult male labor force available in the household?"

"Then women, young children, and even elderly people who are still able to do their part can also actively participate in these construction activities and do what they can to help."

"For example, helping to move some lightweight building materials, handing tools to busy workers, serving tea, etc."

"Although they may not be able to undertake heavy physical labor like strong men, the small contribution of each person, when combined, will surely allow the entire project to proceed smoothly."

Grandpa frowned slightly, looking seriously at Huayeman, and raised another crucial question: "What if some people are unwilling to participate in the voluntary labor? Also, if there aren't enough people, should we recruit more?"

His tone carried a hint of worry, as if he were quite concerned about the situation.

Hua Yeman thought for a moment, then replied seriously, "Grandpa, if someone really doesn't want to participate in voluntary labor, we shouldn't force them."

"However, since then, any projects funded by Huaye Man and involving various benefits have been completely unrelated to these people!"

"For example, if their child wants to come here to study for free, that won't do. If they really want to study, they can, but they have to pay."

"As for our school's tuition, we can reduce it by 20% based on the town's standards. And as for the teacher's wages and hiring helpers, we can raise them by 20% compared to the town's rates."

"Actually, it's not necessary for everyone to do voluntary work for the flowering vines. We can just hire people to build them."

"But if we really do that, and everyone doesn't contribute anything, over time some people might develop the bad habit of 'a little kindness is appreciated, but too much kindness breeds resentment.' That's not the outcome Huaye Man wants to see!"

At this point, Hua Yeman paused for a moment, then continued, "If we're looking to hire people to do the work, we should first consider family members from our village who have participated in voluntary labor, since they have already demonstrated a certain level of enthusiasm and dedication."

"Furthermore, good character is also a very important selection criterion. If we don't have enough people in our village, we can recruit from other villages, but no matter what, it still comes down to the same thing: good character is the most important!"

While Hua Yeman was talking with her grandfather, her two younger sisters remained quiet and well-behaved throughout, focusing mainly on participation. No matter what Hua Yeman said, they kept nodding in agreement.

The reason Hua Ye Man had these thoughts was because the space spirit, Xiao Lan Mei, had bought many novels and placed them in her space, which Hua Ye Man would read whenever she had free time.

One of them is about a modern woman who travels back in time and builds up her hometown.
