After Jiang Anyi's words were finished, there was silence in the hall, and everyone was still reflecting on what Jiang Anyi said, "what has been learned and used" and "virtue is carried away". Seeing the silence in the hall, Jiang Anyi felt a little weak in his heart, and he didn't know whether he was talking about good or bad. Applause rang out from Su Ziming and Ling Xu's hands, and then thunderous applause rang out in the entire hall, Jiang Anyi breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed to be okay.

After the applause stopped, a young student stood up and asked in a loud voice: "Wu Haiming, the late student Wu Haiming, what Mr. Jiang just said 'what you have learned and use it' is the same as what the sages of the Warring States Period said, 'know but do not do it, although you will be sleepy', and the later students are deeply inspired. Mr. Jiang can use rope nooses to hunt animals and make folding fans to solve family poverty, although he has also read miscellaneous books such as "Examination of Work", but after thinking about it, the records in the book can not help his later life get rich. Later students wondered, should they put down their books and focus on sundries? Wouldn't that delay your academic progress? ”

This doubt is quite representative, and many people nod their heads in agreement. Jiang Anyi just used himself as an example to propose "using what he has learned", but there are so many scholars in the world who can be like Jiang Anyi. Jiang Anyi was also a little flustered, he came here for another purpose, because of the dispute before entering the academy, he decided to come to the lecture temporarily, and he had a cold for a while and said "what he has learned is used", but he didn't expect it to cause a strong reaction, and now he can't get off the stage.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Anyi said: "What you have learned is used, and it is used to get rich is an aspect, which can be summed up in eight words: helping the people through the country and applying what you have learned." Reading should know the practice, you will be promoted in the future, and you will be the one who collects the shepherd for the Son of Heaven, and you can't govern a good place just by writing a good article. You can know that the grain is harvested twice a year in the south of the Yangtze River and once a year in the north of the Yangtze River...... Those officials did everything possible to exploit the people, with a variety of methods and names......"

Speaking of these practices, Jiang Anyi gushed endlessly, and the people in the hall were dumbfounded, and even Su Ziming and others were stunned, it turned out that there were so many ways to govern the place, and these books had never talked about it.

"To apply what you have learned, you must have the courage to take responsibility, Fan Fuzi's school motto is to first unite the family and then govern the country and then level the world, try to ask if the food and clothing are not yet warm and full, and the family is still hungry and cold, how to govern the world. I'm not asking you to put down your books and do other things, but I say that you should put your family's food and clothing before studying, for example, there is a shortage of private school teachers everywhere in Fuluo County, and the salary is not low, why can't you teach and learn from each other, and read and improve while teaching and educating people? The family is busy with farming, why not put down the books and help the parents for a few days? Reading is about flexibility. ”

Jiang Anyi led the topic to the purpose of the trip, and after discussing with Zhang Keji, he decided to donate 2,000 taels of silver to the academy, and at the end of the year, according to the results of the reward, to the poor students with excellent character and learning. Thunderous applause suddenly sounded in the lobby, five taels of silver was enough for the scholars to live in the academy without worry, and two thousand taels of silver could provide four hundred people. Jiang Anyi set the annual reward at 50, which can be used for the academy to reward for eight years. In eight years, you can participate in two or three imperial examinations, and it is very likely that you will change your fate.

Remembering that Master Jiang donated 10,000 taels of silver to buy land in Fuluo County to help students, and mobilized the squires of Fuluo County to raise some silver taels, more than 20 people from Fuluo County in the academy have food subsidies at home, and they can study with peace of mind, and other students are very envious of the students in Fuluo County, and many people secretly decide that these 50 reward places can not be taken by fellow students in Fuluo County. Wu Huayou and other students from Fuluo County have a different feeling, deeply feeling the kindness of Jiang people, and saying that they should be among the best in the academy, so as to live up to the love of Jiang people.

"It is an indisputable fact that Deng Shan, the head of Zechang Academy, once talked to me about asking me to sponsor more children from poor families to study when I have spare time. Jiang Anyi said in a heavy tone: "Jiang once said when he was in Fuluo County, I have a limited strength, and my salary is exhausted and the fire is passed on, if you have spare strength one day in the future, you may as well contribute to this scholarship, so that more children from poor families can temporarily relieve their worries about food and clothing and study with peace of mind." ”

The hearts of the poor students were surging, and the applause rang out again. This applause is a little unpleasant in the ears of some rich people, Jiang Xuelu shows that the carriage and horses are biased towards the Han family, will there be a foothold for us in the future of this Huangyang Academy?

Zou Yang, who stopped Jiang Anyi in front of the door, his father was a wealthy businessman in Jingyang Mansion, and his family was well-off, so he immediately got up and said angrily: "Lord Jiang, although the family has a little assets in the late life, and there is no need to worry about food and clothing, but the heart of studying and progressing is no worse than that of the children of the poor family. ”

Jiang Anyi smiled and pointed to Guo Fatzi sitting next to him, and said: "This is Guo Huaili who wrote 'People Idle Osmanthus Fall', and he is Jiang's friend." Brother Guo is the same as you, the family is a wealthy businessman, Jiang often goes to his house to borrow books when he is poor, and it is also sponsored by Brother Guo to go to the exam, and later the folding fan business is the cooperation between the Guo family and my family. ”

Guo Huaili is the most capable of doing things, listening to Jiang Anyi's introduction to him, he immediately stood up, rushed to the hall with a smile on his face, and unfolded the folding fan in his hand with a "brush", revealing the poem "People are idle and osmanthus flowers fall", and read it aloud and said: "Guo is not talented, because this little poem is a little famous, unlike the gentlemen who are ambitious, Guo is now a rich idler at home, planting flowers, raising fish, making the wind and admiring the moon, and enjoying the moon, at ease." Guo admires the gentlemen very much, and the brocade clothes and jade food do not lose their self-motivation, which really makes Guo feel ashamed and polite. ”

The rich children in the hall listened to Guo Huaili's funny words, and they all got up and bowed their hands in return.

"This brother said just now, Xiao Jiang is unfair, how can he set up awards for the children of the poor family, and turn us away, it is really unfair, Guo Mou deeply agrees." Guo Huaili shook the folding fan, shook his head, and did not have stage fright at all, and continued: "Of course, I can't wait to put those scholarships in my eyes, but the honors that deserve must not be less, even if we win the award and return the prize money to the academy, everyone said yes?" Or let Jiang Xuelu set up a reward for our rich children, let's just honor and don't reward it, everyone said, right? ”

The hall responded with a chaotic "yes" sound, Guo Huaili glanced at Jiang Anyi proudly, arched his hand and sat back in his position. Jiang Anyi was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect Guo Huaili to sing such a play, but what he said also made sense, in the same academy, although there was a dispute between the rich and the cold, but his own approach obviously intensified the contradiction, Guo Huaili made sense, he had to think of a name.

After discussing with Su Ziming and other gentlemen for a while, Jiang Anyi stood up again and said, "What Zou Yang said is very reasonable, Jiang is not thoughtful and has been biased. After discussing with Mr. Su Shanchang and other gentlemen, the college decided that the scholarship should not be divided into rich and poor, but also set up a bursary award, which will help students from poor families in difficulty, regardless of merit. Wealthy students can donate their scholarships to help their classmates from poor families, and the college will publish a list to recognize these donors. ”

This approach is considered to be a great joy for all, Jiang Anyi's main purpose of coming to the academy has been achieved, and there is an unexpected gain, which makes Jiang Anyi become a little excited, remembering the argument with Zou Yang when he was introduced, and said to the still excited crowd: "I said that Huangyang Academy is not as good as Zechang Academy at the beginning, this is a fact, Huangyang Academy was founded, the background is still shallow, and there is still a distance from the world-famous big academies like Zechang Academy and Zhangyi Academy, but seeing you today, Jiang believes that it won't take long, Huangyang Academy will be famous all over the world because of you. ”

This speech is very encouraging, not only the students are full of affection, but Su Ziming and these gentlemen also show excitement on their faces, famous all over the world, becoming a academy like Zechang Academy can be said to be the dream of Su Ziming and others, and they will also be spread through the ages because of Huangyang Academy.

"Bring pen and paper." Jiang Anyi's excitement was hard to suppress. Jiang Cixian has another great work, and it is a thing to boast about being able to witness it in person, and everyone flocked to Jiang Anyi, wanting to see Jiang Cixian waving with their own eyes. Su Ziming is also very excited, Jiang Anyi's poems are very famous, if he can write a poem about the population in Huangyang Academy, it will be another powerful propaganda for Huangyang Academy.

With a pen in hand, Jiang Anyi calmed down, quickly calculated the verses that should be written in his heart, and an inscription jumped into his mind. The inscription requires concise text, not a high level of content, and is more suitable for the academy than poetry, so Jiang Anyi decided to make a slight modification and write this inscription.

"The mountain is not high, but the name of the immortal. The water is not deep, and if there is a dragon, it will be spiritual. Si is a partial domain, raising Wu Dexin. The moss marks are green, and the grass is green. There is a lot of talk and laughter, and there is no white ding. You can tune the piano and read the Golden Sutra. There is no silk and bamboo, and there is no case. There is no need to envy Zhangyi, what is the use of Mu Zechang, starting today, Huangyang Fenden. ”

Su Ziming praised: "This inscription is warm and thought-provoking, both about the embrace and the mind, it is really a wonderful article." Anyi, Huangyang Academy will be famous for eternity because of your "Huangyang Ming". ”

The admiration rang out, and the people standing behind rushed forward, the scene was chaotic, and Ling Xu shouted: "Don't squeeze everyone, the person in front will read the inscription loudly, let everyone listen to it." ”

"The mountain is not high, there are immortals, there are ......" neatly recited in the lobby, the sound became louder and louder, more and more people joined in the recitation, over and over again, addicted and difficult to extricate themselves.

Su Ziming announced loudly: "I will have people engrave this inscription on the stone tablet and build a tablet pavilion in the academy to celebrate today's prosperity." ”

Everyone bowed down to Jiang Anyi and said, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang." ”

A few years later, the Yellow Sheep Tablet Pavilion has become a grand place for readers to come to play and watch, do not face the stone tablet, recite the "Yellow Sheep Inscription" again, recite the noble sentiment in the inscription, and talk about the noble ambition in vain. Decades later, the theory of economic application prevailed in Dazheng, and scholars took Jiang Anyi's speech at Huangyang Academy as the starting point.

(These two chapters are very difficult to write, and I feel that I lack knowledge and cannot write what I want to express)
