Chapter 331 What I want to do

Felissa walked far enough that she couldn't hear clearly what they were saying, but she could see that they were constantly holding the test papers, comparing things, and arguing.

She sighed and thought seriously about what she should do next.

In this world, everyone has a place they should stand, things they should do, and responsibilities they should bear. Even Nancy, who has such a wanton and flamboyant personality, has to face the reality and sacrifice her dreams to shoulder the responsibility.

Responsibility fulfills other people's needs.

So...what about her?

What is she trying to do, and where is her footing?

She has always followed the crowd. When she was in the Royal City, everyone took care of her. She only needed to be obedient and see what Safi needed her to do. The same was true in Cliff City. She only needed to assist Hao

Livia is enough.

But is it really enough?

She has seen the extravagance of the royal city, the civil strife, and the struggles of the common people. She has also seen a larger, broader, and more advanced world. Does she really just need to do her "duty" well?

She always felt that it shouldn't be like this.

Just as she was thinking, Mark and Jason came over: "Miss, we have discussed it."

Felissa retracted her thoughts and looked at the two of them: "What's the result?"

Jason replied: "Four people stay to study, and four people go back to the military camp."

This happened to be divided into two groups. Felissa raised her eyebrows: "Why do you do this?"

"Eight of us stayed. We didn't have enough property to pay the tuition, so we agreed that four of us would stay and study, and the other four would go back to the military camp. With such a skill, the military camp probably wouldn't let us quit so early. There would be some income support.

.”

Felissa narrowed her eyes slightly. This arrangement was beyond her expectation. She didn't know whose idea it was, but it was quite clever.

She asked, "Everyone?"

"Everyone is willing as long as you bear witness."

This sentence is quite interesting.

The common people at the bottom do not recognize the contract. After all, most of them are illiterate and they cannot understand what is written in the contract. People are always skeptical about things they do not understand, but it will be different if there is a witness from a noble.

, the testimony of the nobles is the highest legal effect.

As long as there is Felissa's testimony, there is no need to worry about who will fall out in this cooperation.

"That's a good idea," Felissa nodded approvingly, "but now is not the time."

Jason and Mark suddenly panicked: "What do you mean?"

Felissa calmed them down gently: "I'll let you make a choice, but not now, it's not time yet. You can stay and study with peace of mind."

What does "not now" mean? But Jason and Mark knew that it was best for them to keep their mouths shut and not question it any more, but they were still full of doubts and uneasiness.

Felissa asked again casually: "How are the lists divided?"

Mark replied sheepishly: "The points will be divided according to the answers to your questions. If you remember more, you will stay and study."

Sure enough, Felicia shook her head. Some people gave more answers, but the answers were wrong. But they were illiterate, so they thought they knew more just because they wrote more.

"No matter what you learn in the future, you must learn to read from today on," Felicia turned and walked towards the pharmacist. "During the day, you will follow the pharmacist's instructions and help him do things."

She casually broke off a branch, then burned the branch with a flame in her palm. The carbonized branch could be used as a pen to write on the ground.

When teaching people how to read, start by teaching each person’s name.

The pharmacist stood aside and listened. After realizing that there was nothing for him here, he shook his head and went about his own business.

Early the next morning, Felissa went to the city lord's mansion and met Olivia.

Olivia was as kind to her as ever: "What happened when you came so early?"

Now Felissa has relaxed a lot in front of Olivia, and her words are somewhat casual: "I want to ask how long can those eight soldiers stay?"

Olivia frowned slightly: "Can't they learn suturing techniques?"

"No," Felissa immediately denied, "suturing is not difficult, but if they want to learn skills other than suturing, it will take a longer time, so I want to ask how long they can stay."

"You want to keep someone?" Olivia asked without answering, "Tell me what you think."

"That's a concentration camp for wounded soldiers," Felissa said. "The people lying there now are all wounded. After they recover from their injuries, they can only get a pension and then leave the army. The Cliff family will not care.

Their life and death."

Olivia looked at Felissa and said: "The Cliff family has done their best to benevolent and righteous. It is impossible for the Cliff family to support them for the rest of their lives."

"I understand." Felissa is not blaming the Cliff family. As Olivia said, the Cliff family has done a lot by treating them and saving the lives of these people. There are too many nobles who do not

There are many people who regard the lives of civilians as life and burn them all when they die. Felicia can't care what those people do, but retired soldiers in her previous life will have certain guarantees, such as helping them find jobs.

, giving preferential treatment to children, she thinks Cliff City can do the same.

"I want these injured veterans to have a job that can make a living, such as growing medicinal materials, or other positions, and then let their children learn to read."

"Well," Olivia responded calmly, "What else?"

"I want to change the concentration camp for wounded soldiers into a combination of a hospital and a medical school, hire pharmacists and doctors, and each pharmacist will have an apprentice. It is open to everyone. You can pay a consultation fee for medical treatment, and you can also buy medicinal materials. As long as you can afford it, you can

Anyone can come. If you agree, I will go back and write a plan immediately."

Olivia looked at Felissa squarely: "Is this what you decided to do? You are responsible for everything you think about?"

"Okay," Felissa nodded, "but I still want to do a basic school so that all children can read and read."

"Make all children literate and read?" Olivia laughed and shook her head as if she had heard a joke, "Most civilian children have to help adults when they can walk. Where do they have time to study?"

"That's because there is no future in learning. If you continue farming after learning literacy, I think no one will want to continue learning."

"So, what do you think they can do in the future?" Olivia asked, "Although there are no hard and fast rules, it is a convention that every industry and every generation is passed down. The son of a blacksmith will only be a blacksmith, and the son of a farmer will also be a blacksmith.

You can only be a farmer, and if you have no other skills, you can only join the army. Do you want to break this phenomenon?"

"Both my uncle's side and the medical school side will need people. The industries are all newly developed. As long as one person can make a good living because of literacy, there will definitely be others willing to follow suit."

Everything is easier to handle as long as there is a precedent. For example, she has a precedent of rising from a commoner to a noble. Fred has a reason to reuse those marginal nobles, down-and-out nobles, and the adopted sons of nobles. It is precisely because of this.

Felissa had no way of staying in the royal city, so she took refuge in Cliff City, otherwise who knows what those nobles would do to her.
