Chapter 142 Start of Construction
At night, Ni Nanai was alone in the study drawing the design. When she finished the drawing, she found that the few thousand taels of silver were not enough to build the academy. She would have to use other funds. However, a private school that cost so much money would not be a private school anymore. She might as well just build it into a college.
Judging from the buildings here, it is not suitable for major renovations, so the drawings should be kept for building an academy in the capital.
Ni Nanai drew two drawings in one night, organizing the organizational structure of a private school and the organizational structure of an academy.
The next day, she gave the finished blueprint to Xing'er. She originally thought that they could start work today, but Xing'er encountered a big problem because no one dared to start work in this ghost alley. No matter how much money they were offered, no one was willing to do the job.
Ni Nainai arranged for Xing'er to call the craftsmen and talk to them in person. However, when people heard that the project site was in a ghost alley, they all shook their heads and refused.
"It's a famous weird place, and we don't want to get into any trouble." said a craftsman.
"Yes, we don't want to get into trouble for a few dollars." The other craftsmen echoed.
"Okay, forget it. It seems that you are really not suitable to make this money. Let's go." Ni Nainai looked at their timid appearance and waved her hand to signal them to leave.
"What are you talking about!"
"Yeah, what is this!"
……
The craftsmen went out one by one, grumbling unhappily. They had thought that if they refused to do the job, they would get some extra pay. As long as there was pay, who wouldn't want to do it?
Ni Nai Nai resorted to the same old trick and posted a notice to recruit laborers, only beggars were accepted and no one else was accepted.
Only beggars are not afraid of death. They will starve to death anyway if they have no money. It is better to die with a full stomach than to die anyway.
Sure enough, Ni Nainai's trick was indeed effective. The beggars were a little hesitant at first when they heard that it was a ghost alley, but after some hesitation they still took the job.
Ni Nainai brought them to the scene. This alley did not have the same atmosphere as before, and it felt unusually ordinary.
The decoration here is very simple. Just organize it and divide it clearly, and then let them make some desks and chairs.
A few days later, the private school looked quite established. She named it "Common People's Private School", which meant a private school exclusively for common people. Ni Naina asked Bei Ning to invite a teacher and asked Xing'er to purchase textbooks.
Everything that needed to be prepared was ready, and now all that was left was for the children to go to school. This time, she did not post notices, but instead asked Xing Er and Bei Ning to personally investigate and sincerely help those children who needed help...
After arranging the matters for the next few days, it was time for Ni Naina to leave. She had to go and investigate those counties that were said to have allocated funds to the palace.
Ni Nainai looked at the ring, thinking that the scum cat must have returned to the magic continent, so she didn't summon it again, because there was no trace of it on this continent at all.
Ni Nainai set out on the journey to the county seat of the grant. Along the way, she carefully observed the surrounding environment and thought about how to better understand the local situation.
After several days of trekking, Ni Nainai finally arrived at her destination. She went deep into the county town, communicated with the people, and listened to their needs and difficulties.
During the investigation, Ni Nainai discovered some unusual signs. These counties seemed to be hiding some secrets, and these secrets were related to the appropriation.
She decided to dig deeper to uncover the truth behind it. With her keen insight and wisdom, Ni Nainai gradually solved the mystery.
Ni Nainai discovered that there was collusion between the county magistrate and the county magistrate. They falsely reported the disaster and defrauded the court's appropriation. Even more abominable was that they embezzled most of the funds and only left a small part for disaster relief.
In fact, from the very beginning, Ni Nainai already felt that there was something fishy going on. Unexpectedly, her first feeling was actually right. Fortunately, she was careful and did not allocate funds directly to them, otherwise they would be very happy now.
It was already the beginning of August, and in ten days or so it would be his wedding to Prince Zhan. But she was not in a hurry at all. The most important thing right now was to meet with County Magistrate Chen who was going to petition for funding.
Ni Naina was walking on the street in a snow-white dress and a veil, when she met Shu, who was wearing white clothes and white hair.
"We meet again?" Shu stopped in front of Ni Naina and said lightly.
"How did you get here?" Ni Nainai was puzzled. It seemed that she could meet Mr. Zhu everywhere. But Ni Nainai suddenly remembered that he seemed to have brought a little girl with him that night, and that little girl was finally given to that scumbag. Could it be that the scumbag was a good friend of Mr. Zhu? She had never asked this question during the days she had been with them.
"I came to do something, your..." Shu looked around Ni Naina and found that all her pets were gone.
"They went out to play. Did you lose that little girl that day?" Ni Naina asked deliberately.
"No, I gave it to an old friend to raise." Shu lied without blushing.
"Okay, then I'll go get busy first." Ni Naina smiled and left.
Shu looked at Ni Nainai's back. Her back really looked a bit like Yu'er. Shu paused and followed her...
