Lu Kang was very happy. Sun Ce did not directly deny his recommendation, and was willing to meet Shen Zhi, which shows that Sun Ce is still very sensible, and does not directly list Sheng Xian as an enemy just because he is a member of the party. Even because of his face, it is very rare.

Lu Kang asked Shen Zhi to accompany Sun Ce to continue his tour of Qiziling and explain his plan for the development of county schools. He told Sun Ce that he had discussed it with Gao Dai and others, and felt that Sun Ce's proposal to strengthen education and let county bachelors take turns to teach in the township was feasible, and now he has begun to make arrangements, not only to determine the system, but also to arrange the corresponding funds for support. This fund can't all come from the county, the counties also have to share some of it, and some of it will be funded by the township elites, which should be about the same.

Lu Kang said while looking at Sun Ce from the corner of his eye, he wanted to be natural, but he was obviously not good at this kind of thing, and Sun Ce saw through it at a glance. With the experience of county studies in Nanyang and Runan, Sun Ce has already thought deeply about what to do in county studies, and he has a rough idea of what Lu Kang thinks in his heart. Universal education is to compete with the family for talents, how can he let the family take advantage of this to reach out.

"Lu Gong, it is the responsibility of the court and the county to educate the people, and the county shares the cost, which is as it should be, and the township sages don't have to. After opening this opening, Taishou and Ling Chang had another reason to apportion, and it became a task to donate and persuade students, but it was not beautiful. ”

Lu Kang sighed. "In this way, I'm afraid that the funds will be more tight. Not to mention anything else, there are more than 40,000 households in Wu County, and if 40 households need one division, they need more than 1,000 people, and each person earns 100 stones a year, which is 100,000 stones, plus expenses such as pen, ink, books, etc., but it is a large expense, and the pressure will be very great if it is all supplied by taxes. Why not make voluntary donations to persuade students? ”

"I'm not against voluntary donations, but the education of ordinary people's children cannot be borne by them." Sun Ce insisted on the bottom line. The common people admit that they are dead, and whoever they have benefited will recognize in the future. If universal education is donated by the family, even if it is a part, they will think of the good of these people in the future, and they will give priority to their workshops when they enter the workshop, so that he has cultivated talents for the family. It's okay for the family to buy people's hearts, but you can't meddle in this area. According to the current price of grain, 100,000 stone is equivalent to 1,000 gold, which is indeed a lot of money, but he can still squeeze it out.

"So how should we help students?" Lu Kang unconsciously changed his name.

Sun Ce said with a smile: "There are too many ways to help students, for example, if someone writes a monograph, or wants to copy it widely, or wants to engrave a monument, but suffers from lack of funds, you can provide funding, this is a good opportunity to make a name for yourself." ”

Sun Ce said a few words in one breath about the family's way of helping students, and Lu Kang was a little uncertain in his heart. Several of them have come up with this plan, of course, not only for the sake of fame, but also for the purpose of winning public opinion and public opinion. They probably know a little bit about what Sun Ce did in Nanyang and Runan, especially him, Lujiang is adjacent to Runan, and Lu Yi is by Sun Ce's side, he knows very well Sun Ce's idea of suppressing the family. As a family, of course, he didn't want his interests to be damaged, so he made countermeasures to Sun Ce's plan. Sun Ce was adamantly opposed to their meddling in enlightenment education, but he did not object to their sponsorship of academic activities, which he found acceptable. After all, the main body of public opinion is still the reader, not the ordinary person who has only received enlightenment education.

Both of them spoke more obscurely, touched each other's bottom line, reached a compromise, and tacitly led the topic away.

Seeing that it was noon, just as lunch was being prepared, the person sent to the Shen family came back and said a few words in Lu Kang's ear. Shen Zhi not only rejected Sun Ce's invitation, but also made disrespectful remarks, saying that Sun Ce was the son of a businessman, who did not understand the rules, and took Wu County without permission, while Lu Kang and others did not dissuade him, but instead helped him to abuse Yunyun.

Lu Kang's face was a little ugly at that time, and he couldn't help but glance at Sun Ce, and whispered a few words to the messenger, which sounded very blunt. Seeing that Lu Kang was slow to give him the result, Sun Ce knew that not only did this matter not go well, but it was likely that something went wrong.

"Lu Gong, what's going on?"

Lu Kang was embarrassed. Shen Zhi ...... Sick, bad for walking. ”

Sun Ce stopped Lu Kang. "In that case, I'll go see him."

"General, don't ......"

Sun Ce turned around and looked at Lu Kang with a smile. The smile on Lu Kang's face froze and smacked his lips in disdain. "General, if I do this too much, you won't have to make a trip."

Sun Ce had a fire in his heart, and he lost a smile on his face. Recently, he has given too much face to the Wu Jun family, and these people are a little ignorant of advancing and retreating. Lu Kang also didn't correct his identity. As the saying goes, a tiger doesn't wield power, when I'm a sick cat. The rule pays attention to both grace and power, grace has been given, and the majesty has not yet shaken, since Shen Zhi has hit the knife edge, how can he let go of this opportunity to make a fortune.

Sun Ce ordered the accompanying Yi Congqi to assemble and go straight to the Shen family. Lu Kang stomped his feet, and hurriedly sent someone to Da Lei Mountain to invite Shen You, and he also called a car to rush to Shen's house. Sun Ce came to Gusu City, did not bring Dian Wei and others, only Yan Xing, Ma Chao and other righteous servants accompanied him to protect, and acted quickly. By the time Lu Kang arrived at the bottom of the ridge, Sun Ce had already run away. Lu Kang was so anxious that he asked the coachman to hurry up and rush into the city.

When Sun Ce came to Shen's house, more than two hundred riders stopped in front of the inner gate, centered on the inner gate, extending to both sides, blocking the entire alley tightly. Without saying anything, pedestrians consciously pulled over and detoured, and no one dared to step forward to cause trouble. Seeing this, Li Zheng hurriedly went out to greet him.

"Dare to ask the general if it is ......"

Sun Ce said with a smile: "Under Sun Ce, please take me to Shen Zhi's house." ”

When Li Zheng heard that it was Sun Ce, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he blurted out. "It turned out to be Sun Lang. Oh hey, no wonder I heard the flower magpie call early this morning, it turned out that there was indeed a distinguished guest. Tut-tut, it's really a handsome young man. Sun Lang came to see Shen Jun? Just now...... Oh, someone was here just now, yes, yes, it's old and confused. Sun Lang, please, the old man will lead you to the Shen family. ”

Seeing that Li Zheng was overjoyed, Sun Ce didn't say anything, and followed Li Zheng inside. Ma Chao and the others rushed in, and when they arrived at Shen Zhi's house, they were surrounded by groups. When Li Zheng saw this posture, he felt that something was wrong, and he didn't dare to go inside when he stood at the door of Shen's house.

Sun Ce motioned to Pang Tong to take some copper coins and stuff them into Li Zheng's hand. "My husband takes it to drink, so you don't have to wait here."

Li Zheng left without repeatedly, and he didn't dare to look back to pick up a few copper coins that fell to the ground. Sun Ce turned around and motioned for Ma Chao to step forward and knock on the door. Ma Chao just knocked twice, and a slightly panicked voice came from inside.

"Who knocked?"

Ma Chao said loudly: "Rebel against the general Sun Ce, come to visit Shen Jun." ”

"My master ......" Before the words fell, another voice sounded inside. What is long-winded, if you don't see it, you don't see it. Sun Ce, listen, I'm Shen Zhi. The Tao is different, they don't conspire with each other, and the Wu County appointed by the imperial court is too guarded ......"

Sun Ce sneered and glanced at Ma Chao. Ma Chao took a step back, flew forward, and kicked on the gate of the Shen family. "Boom!" With a loud bang, the deadbolt of the Shen family's gate was kicked off, the door panel flew out, and even the door frame was torn off.

There was an exclamation from inside the door, followed by a dead silence.
