Uncle Ma and four villagers led eight children about ten years old to the town to find Chen Xu.

Chen Xu was explaining to the medical divination how to deal with the various medicinal materials purchased, so that several strong young men could clean up some of these medicinal materials with stone mills and stone mortars, and then put them in different categories.

"Xiaoxu, I'll leave all these kids to you. If you don't obey, you can beat them up. There's nothing to say!" Uncle Ma repeatedly reminded him.

This made Chen Xu feel a little tooth-ache, which was exactly the same as what his parents sent to the school to the teacher when he was in elementary school when he was a child. So he could only smile and say, "Don't worry, uncle, I will take good care of them!"

However, these children have skinny skin, but they have suffered from urination since childhood. They are thin like monkeys. They are in good spirits and never lazy when working. You should know that parents at this time are more unreasonable than parents in rural areas in later generations, and they don’t know how to reason. If they don’t do well, they are greeting each other by sticks. Therefore, these children basically grow up every day and bear the beating very much.

"By the way, this is the mosquito net that your mother has woven. I've brought it to you! There are also some dried and cut medicinal materials." Uncle Ma took out a roll of mosquito net wrapped in linen from the backpack, and then several villagers also opened the lids on several vine baskets, revealing various medicinal materials inside.

"Xu Yibu comes here and help me collect these medicinal materials from Xiaohe Village!" Chen Xu didn't even look at it, and raised his hand to summon Yibu.

The doctor's divination is called Xu Ye, who is almost fifty years old. He is an old Chinese doctor in his later generations. Unfortunately, there is no systematic Chinese medicine theory at this time. He also has no understanding of the medicinal properties of various medicinal materials. Most of the time, he can only treat diseases. He can feed them to the patient's mouths, and then... there is no more. Some seriously ill people are stuffed and hung up. Of course, there is no medical dispute in this era, and they will die if they die. The family members cry and carry them back to dig a hole and buried them, and then find the pavilion chief to register and be finished.

The doctor and Bu are always old, but they still have a look of their eyes. They knew that these people were from Lord Lidian, so they looked around and weighed them.

The Qin Dynasty used the lifting button cross bar scale, which was similar to what Chen Xu saw in later generations. It was uniformly produced and distributed by the government. The public was not allowed to carve scales privately. Not only were the scale rods fixed, but the length and size must be strictly required. The weight was also unified by the craftsman's house to make weight. Each county must be built according to strict requirements, and there must be no difference and then distributed to the county and township levels. Of course, this statement must be a bit exaggerated, and the difference will definitely be a bit, but it will definitely not be too big, because each scale is engraved with the name of the craftsman. Once there is too obvious error, the punishment is very heavy.

After weighing it, the doctor paid the money, and Uncle Ma and several villagers received more or less coins. These were all collected by the village these days, not too much, but it was only more than one hundred yuan in total. After taking it back, every household could get some, and almost buy a bucket of salt.

After seeing off a few happy villagers, Chen Xu began to be busy again.

Although these eight children, five men and three women, were already wearing the best clothes, they were still ragged and uncovered. The women in the town also needed to be arranged to sew a decent set of clothes for them. Of course, someone would do this for them.

After leading a few children from the same village to the newly built yard next to him, a middle-aged man took the children to measure their heights and arrange their residences.

"Old Chen, I will leave these children to you. I will learn literacy and arithmetic in the morning, and follow Niu Quan to learn abacus in the afternoon. If you are naughty, you can punish me, but remember not to be too serious!" Chen Xu said to the old man who explained the legal knowledge of the Qin Dynasty to him every time.

"Don't worry, since I have become the dean of this elementary school, I will do my best!" The old man's face was full of excitement.

Chen Xu had already consulted him when he was building this Qinghe Town Primary School. As one of the three elders in the town, Old Man Chen was still very excited. Although Chen Xu's approach was unprecedented in the Qin Dynasty, allowing some farmers and ordinary families to read and read, it was an excellent opportunity for him to increase his reputation. You must know that only famous scholars and scholars can do it when they open a library and teach them. Now he is an old man in a remote countryside. It is really a bit happy to show his face when he dies. Therefore, he naturally agreed, which led to the envy and jealousy of the other two old men.

In fact, in addition to the eight children in Xiaohe Village, Chen Xu also selected more than a dozen children of similar age from the town, both men and women, and there was no class division between them. At that time, Old Man Chen and Niu Quan taught them together, mainly to learn literacy and abacus. Chen Xu himself would occasionally take time to teach these children some simple physics and calculation classes. This is the seed of the future Daqin's new-style mathematics. When he grows up a little, these children can participate in his plan to revitalize Daqin.

Only when knowledge increases can social change be brought about, and only when more people with knowledge, mathematics, physics and chemistry appear, can some things be slowly studied.

The reason why this era is poor is mainly due to low productivity and many invisible wealth has not been used in production and life.

Nowadays, the land is vast and sparsely populated. It can be said that the land that can be cultivated cannot be measured. However, because the method of producing grain is too primitive and low-level, the method of growing grain for Maoer covering shit is far less than that of the later generations of intensive farming methods. Even if a household grows dozens or hundreds of acres, the grain output is still pitifully small. If the planting method is improved, the use of new agricultural tools is used in large quantities, and the production of grain will be greatly increased.

The simplest is for example, the invention of the threshing machine. In the past, it took one month to harvest summer grain, but with the help of the threshing machine, the time will be shortened to half a month or even ten days. This can avoid more disaster weather and allow more grain to enter the warehouse. This is also the most intuitive way to increase grain output. If mature grain cannot be harvested, it will be considered as no yield.

Once the food is abundant, then without worrying about filling the stomach, other material demands will increase in large quantities. With higher quality material demands, industry and commerce can slowly unfold, social material will become richer, and social wealth will gradually accumulate. This is what later generations call GDP growth. Now, the GDP of the entire Qin Dynasty combined, and it is estimated that even a prefecture-level city in the future cannot catch up.

There is a saying in later generations that knowledge changes destiny. Intellectuals not only change the destiny of individuals, but also gain a higher social status. For example, alchemists and sorcerers who refine alchemy and pharmaceuticals have emerged. It is precisely because of their appearance that some simple chemical theories and substances have begun to be applied and gradually become popular and used in a wider range of production and life. As more intellectuals appear, the destiny of the country will also change. If copper and iron smelting of copper and iron will never be different from ordinary earth and stone. Once copper and iron ore are smelted into metal, it will increase the wealth of society. If craftsmen make a cup, then the country will have an extra cup. This is the simplest wealth.

Poverty is not scary, what is scary is that there is no idea.

Business will not increase wealth, but can allow goods to flow.

Only when agriculture is stable, industry is developed, and commerce is developed can social wealth be accumulated.

To do all this, even if Chen Xu has Einstein's head, without enough helpers and power support, it is definitely impossible.

To fulfill some of his own ideas, only by cultivating a large number of outstanding talents to work together can ideals become reality.

Therefore, in addition to slowly managing and accumulating wealth, he also needs to transform these accumulated wealth into a driving force that can promote social progress, form a new force, and allow many people to see a better future.

The disciples of the Legalists implemented strict laws for the long-term stability of the Qin Dynasty, so they could also implement the knowledge concepts of later generations for the prosperity and strength of the Qin Dynasty.

China is big enough and has enough hidden wealth, but it only takes ten years, and I just hope that my time will still take.
