“Where do you think the nomads are from?” Su Wenzhe asked curiously.
“They must be from the northern border. They have plenty of cattle and sheep there,” Liu Yinyin replied.
Su Binglan added, “Perhaps they’re here to buy seeds and grains.”
The nomads had cattle and sheep in the north but not much food. At that moment, Su Binglan remembered Lin Zheng saying that he was the son of the City Lord of Bright Moon City.
Bright Moon City was a city in the desert, and no one knew its exact location. Although Su Binglan knew Lin Zheng had already returned to Bright Moon City, she did not know how he was doing.
‘Perhaps I can visit Bright Moon City on my way back to the border province.’
Su Wenxiu said, “Many people wearing foreign clothing visit the village and town often now.”
Su Fengmao chimed in, “It means our town and village are famous. So many people know about Su Teng Village.”
Last time, Lan Ruozhu did not spread the news about Su Teng Village because of the country’s internal strife. However, he had become the country’s emperor, and things had become peaceful.
Dingzhou opened its gates to the outside world. Therefore, news about Dingzhoul and Su Teng Village spread to all parts of the country. Many people visited for the delicacies and entertainment. Dingzhou had become a tourist spot for many.
Foreign merchants would even bring their local specialties to Su Teng Village and sell them there. They would even buy things from Su Teng Village and bring them to their hometown. The village had also become somewhat of a trading ground.
The Su family looked outside the carriage and discussed these things as they traveled to the farm.
Shen Qiuhua was stunned when the carriage passed by Blue Mountain Academy. “l haven’t been here in a long time. I didn’t expect to see so many shops around there. 1 see so many people coming and going.”
Su Binglan explained, “Most of the things we sell here consist of learning tools like paper, books, brushes, and ink.”
Su Xuexuan added, “There’s also a snack bar that sells dried fruits. The students like coming here at noon to buy snacks.’
Even the poorer students had pocket money now that every household in Su Teng Village had improved living conditions. Not everyone could eat their fill in the past, but they could even afford snacks now.
Moreover, the food in the cafeteria was so cheap that the students could save money on food.
Su Wenxiu said, “Some of the students who graduated from Blue Mountain Academy have continued their studies to prepare for the Imperial Exams.
“Some found jobs in the surrounding areas, while the others moved to the capital. Many places need talents like them now. It’s easy for the students to find high-paying jobs, too.”
After some thought, Su Fengmao said, “The academy is famous now. People are more willing to hire the students who graduated from here. Some work as managers, and some work in the factories.”
Su Xuexuan said softly, “Some of our seniors’ studies are average, but they don’t intend on taking the Imperial Exams. They just want to start a career near their homes to be closer to their parents.
“Some of our seniors did well and moved to the capital to become government officials. A few even returned to the academy to become teachers.
“Several of our seniors have returned to their hometowns and started private schools there. They even got registered to be teachers at the Imperial Court to receive salaries.”
The Imperial Exams only occurred once a year, and Lan Ruozhu’s demand for talent had increased. The former emperor was biased when picking talents in the past, but Lan Ruozhu selected talents based on their overall capabilities.
One could still hold a high position in the Imperial Court if one possessed more agricultural knowledge than others.
Moreover, Lan Ruozhu and Su Binglan had begun opening schools in various places, allowing children from all over the world to study for free. They also recruited talented students to be teachers.
Those who came from scholarly backgrounds or were outstanding graduates from Blue Mountain Academy could also become teachers. Even so, the principals had to guarantee that no problematic students could become teachers.
After all, Su Binglan and Lan Ruozhu would need plenty of teachers if they wanted to set up schools all over the country. Since there were not many scholars around the country, they had to hire college graduates to be teachers.
Shen Qiuhua sighed and said, “It looks much nicer around her now. I always thought Blue Mountain Academy’s surroundings were cold and lifeless in the past. The students looked numb and indifferent back then.”
“That wasn’t their fault,” Su Fengmao said, “They were like that last time because they barely had enough to eat. If I were in their shoes, I wouldn’t want to waste my energy talking, either.”
Everyone felt his words made sense. People would only have energy after eating.
Liu Yinyin said, “Many parents order milk for their children these days. They want to make sure their children are well-fed. People used to think of how expensive it was to send their children to Blue Mountain Academy.
“They might not even be able to rank in the Imperial Exams. That would have been a waste of their studies. Things are different now that His Imperial Highness has issued many beneficial decrees.
“It’ll be easy for the students to find stable jobs if they study hard enough, not to mention the Imperial Exams, which only occur once a year.”
Liu Yinyin read plenty of books because she often sent her children to school. Since that was the case, she had accumulated knowledge about the government decrease and Blue Mountain Academy.
“l didn’t expect you to know so much.” Su Wenzhe was surprised.
Liu Yinyin said in embarrassment, “That’s because Binglan encouraged us to study more. I feel reading books is very beneficial.”
Su Binglan asked, “Would you like to be a teacher, Sister-in-law?”
Liu Yinyin was stunned. “l…can be a teacher? But I’ve never gone to school, and I’m a girl.”
Su Binglan responded, “Most of the teachers are guys, but there are male and female students. The schools will feel more confident in helping the female students if there are female teachers. After all, women are more attentive. The
Imperial Court encourages girls to study.”
Liu Yinyin felt a burning passion in her heart when she heard Su Binglan’s words. “Can I really become a teacher? Will I need to take the Imperial Exam,
Su Binglan answered, “Well, you’ll need to continue reading and learning. I’ll organize some books for you to study later. Before you know it, there will be an examination to become a teacher. You can become one if you pass the exams with no background issues.”
Su Binglan had discussed these things with Lan Ruozhu when she was in the capital. He even felt it would be better to have male and female teachers.
Liu Yinyin felt motivated, saying, “I’ll study hard, Binglan!’
