At first, the money was to help some homeless people, send some clothes and food, but with the development of commerce, the homeless people who came to the capital at the beginning have also found a livelihood, mainly working in the horse racing area, and then Marseille set up an education fund, and almost all the money donated by Marseille was invested in education.

That is, the monastic education and Taoist education planned by Guo Dan.

This is mainly because, in Beijing Normal College, even if it is a primary school, it is a more troublesome matter, and the key is that this teacher is difficult to find, and if you find it, you may not listen to you, after all, this scholar has a lot of principles.

Guo Dan simply put education in temples and Taoist temples.

Monks and Taoist priests are not engaged in education, they don't have too many principles in this regard, you Guo Dan give money, you can teach how you say, anyway, this is a good deed, not something that hurts nature and reason.

But Guo Dan didn't care about it after that, at most he got some arithmetic textbooks for them.

Of course, he knew that many of the people in Nobuyuki came from these monasteries, but he also did not expect that now the rich people also wanted to study there, so he decided to go and see it.

"Wow... We're not in the wrong place. ”

When Guo Dan came to the foot of the mountain, he saw the magnificent temple on the mountain, the long corridor, and many buildings still under construction in the surrounding area.

In the past, Jogokuji Temple was a very ordinary temple.

Yang Feixu on the side said: "Aren't you richer than before." ”

Guo Dan tilted his head to look at Yang Feixu, and grinned: "You are also much more beautiful than before." ”

At this moment, a voice came from afar: "Amitabha! ”

Guo Dan looked back and saw Huiming leading two old monks over, and immediately put one palm on his chest, and read: "Color is emptiness, emptiness is color." ”

"That's the eunuch." Yang Feixu said coldly.

Guo Dan immediately felt a cool breeze blowing under his crotch, and couldn't help but shiver.

"Master Guo Shi is here, and our temple is full of brilliance."

At this time, Huiming stepped forward and performed the Buddha ceremony.

The two old monks behind him also bowed respectfully.

It is said in the Journey to the West that the monks also ask for personnel.

Guo Dan laughed and said: "The abbot is modest, even if I don't come, your temple is still shining!" ”

"Huh?"

Huiming was stunned for a moment, and then smiled embarrassedly: "This is all thanks to the blessing of the Guo Shizhu, since the Guo Shizhu came, there are a lot more people who come to burn incense, so the old man ......." ”

"The abbot doesn't need to explain, it's as it should be."

Guo Dan raised his hand and said, "If this temple is built a little bigger, it can also accommodate more children to study, which is a good thing, and I support it very much." ”

"Amitabha."

Hui Ming performed the Buddha ceremony again, and then said: "The donor is merciful, good! Wonderful! ”

"Where, where!"

After some greetings, Guo Dan and Huiming walked up the mountain.

The money for the expansion of Jinggu Temple is not the money donated by Marseille, but the money donated by many merchants, this is because businessmen often come to you to recruit people, do not donate some money, this is not easy to deal with, over time, the incense here is more and more prosperous.

As soon as I came halfway up the mountain, I could hear a burst of reading, as if I had come to the academy, and I couldn't hear the chanting of the Buddha at all.

Guo Dan said very clearly at the beginning, don't teach any Buddhist scriptures, just teach them to read and write, teach Buddhist scriptures, if they believe in Buddhism and leave home, you can't afford to raise them.

Huiming is right to think about it, but he can't teach indiscriminately, after all, there are not many fields in Jinggu Temple, and he really can't afford to raise them if there are too many people.

When he came to the mountain, a flash of surprise flashed in Yang Feixu's eyes.

I saw that on the corridor, in the courtyard of the house, there were all children, both men and women, not to mention two or three hundred.

"Abbot, there are really a lot of people!"

Guo Dan was also a little surprised.

"Amitabha."

Hui Ming bowed and explained, "At present, there are a total of 632 students in our temple. ”

Yang Feixu frowned and said, "There shouldn't be so many, right?" ”

Hui Ming hurriedly explained: "That's right, because we have too many students here, and at the same time, there are many businessmen who need help from time to time, so we arrange for each student to take classes here for three days, and then go to the merchants to help for two days, so that they can not only apply what they have learned, but also earn money for these three days, and there are only about 300 people studying here at this time." ”

"I see."

Guo nodded with a smile and said, "No wonder the students here are so popular, they all have work experience when they come out of school." ”

Hui Ming nodded with a smile and said, "The donor is right, that's exactly what he said." ”

But this is really not Huiming came up with it, or in order to save costs, but the businessman took the initiative to ask, now the bartender has to find a way to read, because the customer wants to read the newspaper, how can the bartender find the newspaper that the customer wants to read, and some students are specifically responsible for distributing newspapers in restaurants such as Jinyulou.

Guo Dan was not in a hurry to sit in the house, but accompanied by Huiming and them, he looked around and found that the teacher was teaching them to read and write, and there was nothing special.

"Abbot, this can read and write, a teacher can teach, as for those experiences, for those merchants' sons are not so important, they don't need to let their sons come here to study." Guo Dan asked.

Hui Ming replied: "Regarding this matter, the old man has also thought about it carefully, and even inquired, because some merchants have found that even if they specifically ask teachers for advice, their sons are far inferior to the students here.

According to Lao Wei's analysis, there are two reasons for this: first, we attach great importance to arithmetic here, and the teachers they invite are generally to teach the Four Books and Five Classics, but the Four Books and Five Classics are not of much help to do business;

Second, the students here talk about how to do business on a daily basis, which is something that the teachers can't teach. ”

Guo Dan nodded thoughtfully, and said: "But we can't help it, the money that Marseille took out is used to do good deeds, about this, I have promised the imperial court, if we accept those rich children, we are afraid of attracting gossip." I hope that we can all stay true to our original aspirations, only help those in need, and not let our feelings ruin our previous efforts. ”

"Wonderful! Wonderful! ”

Huiming clasped his hands together and was about to perform the Buddha salute, when he suddenly heard a shout from the bottom of the mountain, "Captain Guo! Are you on it? ”

Guo Dan looked down, only to see a small eunuch and two guards hurriedly walking towards the mountain, this eunuch Guo Dan knew, named Xiao Jin, it was this eunuch who specially blocked him at the city gate, he couldn't help but look nervous, what happened again, beckoned: "Grandpa Xiao, I'm here." ”

Shokin looked up, and his pace was faster.

After a while, Xiao Jin and the two guards came to the mountain, "Guo Dan, it's good that you are here, Your Majesty is about to arrive." ”

"Your Majesty?"

It was not Guo Dan who spoke out, but Hui Ming.

I saw that Hui Ming and the two old monks had surprisingly consistent expressions, stunned, and their jaws were about to drop.

The emperor wants to visit our temple?

Is this a dream?

Guo Dan couldn't care about them, and said in surprise: "Why is Your Majesty here?" ”

"You still want to ask, but it's all because of you!"

Xiao Jin gasped and said: "Your Majesty originally planned to ask you to go to the Royal Horse Farm to have a look today, but your father-in-law said that you came here early in the morning, and after Your Majesty heard about it, he temporarily planned to come over to have a look." ”

Guo Dan blinked, thinking, I can't blame me! Who told you not to make an appointment in advance, and you are too exaggerated, you can send someone to call me, there is no need to follow me, this is not like the style of the fat house!

But at this time, I didn't think much about it, and hurriedly went down the mountain with Huiming to greet them.

When they came to the bottom of the mountain, they saw a large group in the distance slowly approaching this way.

"Wow! So many people? ”

Guo Dan was surprised.

Xiao Jin hurriedly said: "When Your Majesty leaves the palace, of course the ministers must accompany him." ”

In fact, what they have seen now is only a part, because the family members have already gone to the Royal Horse Farm.

Traveling with your family, it can be seen that it is not a matter of one or two days, Wanli is to live in the Royal Horse Farm for a period of time.

It turned out that after winning the tariff battle, this fat house suddenly became excited, he wanted to do something, but he really didn't like the imperial city, he felt that it was very dull, and there were some old men around, and there were many rules, he didn't want to work there, at that time he thought of the office in the prize pool hall, so he decided to go to the royal horse farm.

After a while, the team finally came to the bottom of the mountain, only to see the fat house carefully getting off the carriage with the support of Li Gui.

In addition, there are Zhang Jing, Zhang Cheng, Shen Shixing, Wang Xijue, Wang Jiaping, Fang Fengshi, Yang Mingshen, Li Zhi, and so on.

At least half of the court came!

Guo Dan, Huiming and other fart people hurriedly knelt down and bowed.

"Excuse me!"

Wanli stepped forward and said with a smile: "This education fund, but I personally approved it, I have long wanted to come and see if all your money is used for education." ”

Regarding this matter, he has actually been a little unhappy, because the money is all from him, but he can't say it, his reputation has been earned by Guo Dan, he feels that this is a loss, the stingy Wanli wants to let Huiming know that this is my approval, without my supervision, Guo Dan, a big profiteer, will never take so much money to do good deeds, and everything else is Guo Dan's merit.

Are you concerned? It's also a calculation. Guo Dan was not Wanli's careful thinking, and hurriedly said: "If you can get the guidance of Your Majesty personally, it will really be a great blessing for those students!" ”

Zhang Whale smiled: "You kid is really good at talking, Your Majesty just came over to see if your money is really used, the protégé of the Son of Heaven is not so easy to be." ”

Wanli glanced at Zhang Whale, smiled happily, and said, "You Aiqing, go up with me to have a look." ”

"Your Ministers obey."

As they talked, the Praetorian guards had surrounded the place, and even the birds couldn't fly over.

When they came to the mountain, the scene in front of them suddenly stunned Wanli and the others.

There is no silk and bamboo, there is no case, in the mist, there is the sound of Lang reading aloud everywhere, and the scale of reading is something they have never seen in their lives.

Shen Shixing, Wang Jiaping, Yang Mingshen and other scholars were suddenly infected by this atmosphere, and they were all excited, as if they had found a home.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a reading voice: "...... It blooms once in 3,000 years, bears fruit once in 3,000 years, and is ripe in another 3,000 years, and it takes 10,000 years to eat. ”

Everyone's expressions suddenly changed.

This... Isn't this Journey to the West?

Yang Mingshen frowned and asked, "What are you teaching here?" ”
