Chapter 326 School for Ordinary People
“One, two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight.”
“Two, two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight.”
Hotel Behind the wall is a school football field. At this time, more than fifty children aged seven or eight are punching and kicking under the leadership of a teacher. It seems that they are learning some kind of boxing technique.
Fatih saw those children all wearing uniform black trousers and white short-sleeved pullovers, and wondered if this was a military camp. Those children were Duke Wesson's trusted army established by following ancient methods?
This thought was quickly thrown out of his mind. This was a hotel where people came and went, and no one would set up a military camp here.
Fatih's eyes lit up with a blue light as he looked at the building further away. It was a four-story house built with red bricks and red tiles. It was about the same length as a football field, and the windows on the wall were all very large. Through the bright glass in the window, one could see an adult at one end of the room speaking to the children inside. On both sides of the football field are the same four-story buildings. The walls are plastered with white dust and clothes are drying in the corridors. They look like residential areas.
A guess arose in his mind. Could it be a school there?
Fatih estimated that there were hundreds of children here, ranging from six to twelve years old, both boys and girls.
He thought for a while, this might be a school for the children of the nobles and wealthy merchants and gentry of Wesson State. These children will become closer after living together for many years. In the future, Wesson’s children will be put there You can find your own team here.
Similar methods are used by many people, but not on such a large scale.
Fatih can't help but think that when he has children, he will let them do the same before they reach adulthood. He might as well serve as the principal himself, so that the future heirs of the domestic families will have a closer relationship with him, and it will also be easier for them to invest in everyone. Prince.
While he was thinking, he kept looking at the children practicing boxing on the playground. He didn't pay attention at first, but soon he became serious and forgot about imitating them.
Fatih came to the throne by killing his other brothers. He conquered the throne in person before he became emperor. He was also able to lead cavalry assaults on the battlefield. Not to mention that he had been taught martial arts by famous teachers since he was a child, and was good at self-defense and The fist and kick skills used for training are quite experienced.
The punches that the children were doing on the grass looked very simple. They were just a combination of basic skills. However, after careful observation, I found that this set of boxing techniques not only included various basic movements, but also had certain skills when combined. Practical, it is an excellent enlightenment boxing technique.
Fatih observed carefully on the balcony, wondering if this was Richard Naer's handiwork. In martial arts, sometimes the simpler it seems, the more difficult it is in fact.
In the guest room, Hakan and the waitress finished communicating about the food, laundry, travel and other issues in the coming days, and came over to report to the leader.
Fatih ignored these trivial matters and just nodded.
At this time, the children on the grass dispersed, and a group of people ran towards the small house in the corner of the football field. In the following free time, some played football, some played bang bang ball, and some Pick up the ball.
Hakan asked: "Master, where will you dine today?"
Fatih looked at the sky and said, "Let's go for a walk and eat outside."
They came for inspection, so naturally they would not stay in a hotel room.
Fatih only took Hakan out, while the others stayed in the room to look at their luggage.
"There are very few horses and mules on the road." Hakan said as he walked.
If it were in other cities, there would be many beasts pulling goods in the bustling commercial streets. Their cries would be mixed with people's cries, and one of them would accidentally get hit by their tails.
But it's different here. The road is very wide. Most of the people walking on the road are the bicycles and tricycles that Richard Null used to pull the fish around. From time to time, you can see the three-wheeled "bang bang cars" used as taxis. I didn't see anyone with four legs.
Fatih thought about it and said: "Weisen State has been importing a large amount of various grains. It is said that the population here exceeds 500,000, and the land area is too small. Reducing the number of draft animals is also to save grain. . ”
If there were officials from Weisen State next to him at this time, they would definitely admire his sharp thinking.
No one can tell how many people there are in Wesson today. Even Frederick can only know the local population through household registration management and estimate the number of permanent residents through community rental contract filings. A large number of unknown people Registered outsiders cannot be counted. Fatih had a destination in mind. He didn't look at the shops on the street along the way. He made two turns and finally came to the main entrance of the school behind the hotel.
The street where the school's main entrance is located is lined with four-story new buildings. The first floor is the facade, and the residential floors above the second floor have balconies. Colorful coats are drying on many balconies. Judging from the materials, they belong to ordinary people.
Most of the stores on both sides of this road sell clothing. There are some restaurants, stationery stores and bookstores opposite the school gate, and there is also a bicycle shop on the corner.
Fatih thought it was a school for the children of powerful people, but he was a little unsure when he saw the street outside the school gate. It was too life-like and not a bit noble.
The Royal Academy of Magic in Broussa, the capital of the Ghazi Empire, is either the children of dignitaries or the children of wealthy businessmen. There are more entertainment venues outside the academy than near the palace, and the facilities are more luxurious than the palace.
The main gate of the school is a large iron gate, with the name of the school written on the sign on the door.
Fatih frowned when he saw it. If the German language he learned was correct, the name of this school was "Textile Road Primary School".
While he was thinking about the meaning of these words, the guard came over and asked him: "Sir, who are you looking for?"
Fatih asked the guard curiously: "You guys Is this a school?”
Seeing that his skin was darker and his speech was awkward, he knew he was from outside, so he replied: “Yes, this is where children study.”
< br>Fatih asked him again: "Whose children are the students studying here?"
The guard said with some confusion: "Who else could it be? The people living around and the children of workers in the garment and textile factories in the north."
Fatih blinked in disbelief. Ask him: "Are you saying that the parents of the children studying here are ordinary craftsmen?"
"Of course." The guard looked like it was a matter of course, and then suddenly thought of something and said: "Yes. If you just moved here and live nearby, as long as you pay enough taxes for one year, you can send your children to study next year.”
Fatih was confused. This school seemed to be in good condition. Aren't they private schools that only teach literacy and simple arithmetic, but the students in them are just children of ordinary craftsmen?
He asked: "Can I go in and have a look?"
The guard shook his head and replied: "We can't let outsiders in here casually. If you want to visit, you can write a letter to our principal."
Fatih finally got the principal's business card from the guard.
"Master, look behind." Hakan reported his new discovery at this time and pointed to the shop opposite the school.
Fatih turned around. There were several restaurants opposite. The sign at the door of one of them said "Gazi Barbeque" in both German and Ghazi.
The two of them felt a little emotional when they met a fellow villager thousands of miles away, so they went over to take a look and say hello to the fellow villager.
It's just that they walked to the store with question marks on their heads.
Hakan asked the emperor with some uncertainty: "Sir, does the Ghazi Empire have such barbecue?"
There are delicacies from all over the empire in the palace, but His Majesty the Emperor was also confused at this time. Said: "The taste of this spice is somewhat impressive. I seem to have eaten it somewhere..."
"By the way!" He remembered, "This spice is the recipe of Wanjing City."
>At this time, the owner of the barbecue restaurant came over. She was a very young girl with a thin figure and some scars on her face.
