Chapter 258: Classmates and Friends
What does the experience of the twenty-first century tell us that is the most important? Of course, talent is the most important resource, and provincial capitals, prefectures, and counties need to establish their own small cabinets, localities need to establish grassroots administrative units such as Xiangfang Township, and various localities need to establish new-style schools.
Zhang Xianzhong at the time of the defeat, in the CD Dabei Temple killed hundreds of scholars, but compared to the peak of the literary style of Sichuan is only a drop in the bucket, on the occasion of the recovery of the Volunteer Army, some students have returned to the provincial capital, everyone gathered in the former academy to study, in order to be able to get an official and a half job in the future.
The volunteers returned to the CD, and Yang Lin began to implement the new policy, in addition to sitting on the CD himself, he urgently needed the support of the vast majority of like-minded readers.
On the third day of returning to the teacher's CD, Yang Lin came to Jinjiang College with his second and third entourage, and listened to his cousin Yang Cheng, which should be regarded as a revisit to the old place, and he had studied in the academy for more than two years after taking the township examination a few years ago.
Anyone likes to form gangs, especially literati, hearing that the acting governor of Sichuan, Yang Lin, came to the academy, everyone greeted them one after another, and at first stood far away, but saw that there were only two or three followers around them, and they came around.
A scholar in his thirties with a medium stature and a crumpled Confucian costume arched his hand and said: "Your Excellency is now the governor of Sichuan, a prince, you should open the road in front of you when you go out, how can you come to this academy on foot?" ”
It can be said that he was born in a family of eunuchs, and he was raised at the age of 22, and he was a famous talent in the academy.
On the same day, Yang Lin was put into prison by Liu Zhibo, and this Shen Xunwei once came to visit the prison, so it seems that he is also a friend of cloth, so the other party has something to say.
Yang Lin smiled, arched his hand, patted the other party's shoulder and said, "Brother Shen said that he was joking, the younger brother also studied in the academy, and now he is back in his own academy to visit his old friends, what do you need to hug him, so many nondescript?"
Brother Shen, friends and classmates, you have been classmates for more than two years, it's not that you don't know my predicament that day. Besides, when I was framed by Long Wenguang, Liu Zhibo and others and imprisoned, everyone not only rescued me outside, but some even came to visit, send money and food, and more importantly, send so much delicious food. ”
At first, everyone was afraid of the official authority and did not dare to be too presumptuous, but now when they heard the other party say this, they laughed one by one, and they looked quite proud.
Shen Xunwei and others welcomed everyone into the lobby, although they cleaned up a little, but there were only more than ten tables and chairs on the lobby, and most of the others had been damaged.
Yang Lin frowned slightly, and a young scholar arched his hand and said, "Brother Ruzhen, you haven't returned to the academy for many years, you don't know the situation.
When I returned to the academy last month, the situation was even worse, but the prefect sent more than 100 people to clean up the broken tables and chairs.
Now, Brother Ru Zhen is the acting governor of Sichuan, and everyone was still saying yesterday that no matter what, they want you to donate a little silver tael from you. ”
The one who spoke was Fei Mi, a native of Xinfan County, CD Prefecture, whose father was an official in Yunnan, and his age was not much older than Yang Lin, and he was close to him when he was studying.
Yang Lin smiled, looked at the other party and said: "This brother, it's easy to talk about fundraising, everyone is not crazy that I robbed the Haoge camp, and I have a little silver."
This silver, if it is placed in the treasury, it will not make money, of course, it is for everyone to spend.
However, this brother, I heard that you were caught by bandits, why are you back now? ”
Fei Mi smiled and said, "Brother Ruzhen, don't change the topic, the academy is so dilapidated, tell me, how much money are you going to spend and donate?" ”
Everyone couldn't imagine that the other party was so generous, and they shouted loudly, some claimed to ask for ten taels of silver, some claimed to ask for one hundred taels of silver, and the most shouted five hundred taels of silver.
Seeing that the other party was smiling and silent, Fei Mi pushed and said, "Brother Ruzhen, I know that you are different from the past, you held two copper coins in the academy for a long time that day, but you are different from the past."
I heard that you spent 100,000 taels of silver in order to get Zhao Ronggui out of Long'an Mansion, and last month you rewarded the three armies, and I heard that you spent 400,000 taels of silver.
You also studied in the academy, and you have to give up this money to repair the academy. ”
Yang Lin smiled and looked at everyone: "Brothers, in the past, in the academy, the younger brother had a nickname Xiao Zhao Kuo.
Brothers, in less than ten years, why was the younger brother able to go from being the acting governor of Sichuan who was looked down upon by everyone, and why was this so? ”
Some people frowned, especially when they thought of their predicament today, the scene was a little solemn, and Shen Xunwei arched his hand for a long time: "I want to hear it."
Picking up the cup from the desk and taking a sip, Yang Lin stood up and talked eloquently.
Starting from book knowledge, to the feelings of the past few years, of course, the focus falls on your future plans.
Yang Lin seemed sincere and told everyone that he was able to succeed today, mainly because his ancestors had left more than 20 acres of public land, and the clansmen were able to hire private school teachers to educate everyone to read and write.
Mainly because he is well-read, rather than reading the teachings of the Four Books and the Five Classics, mainly because he is close to the people's livelihood, discovers the great disadvantages of society, and practices himself, starting from the ridiculed Shi Peng (ancient market managers) to protect the land, so that he has such achievements.
Now although the Tartars have retreated, they may make a comeback at any time, they need to rebuild the army, they need the government at all levels to establish their own small cabinets, and the local grassroots also need to establish grassroots organizations such as township offices and Xiangfang offices.
Facing everyone's warm eyes, Yang Lin said with a smile that he did not study as much as Shen Xunwei, and his studies were not as rigorous as Fei Mi, and his classmates in the academy were all local leaders, and what he lacked at present was experience.
Yang Lin is now the acting governor of Sichuan, and when he said this kind of thing in public, his heart to recruit talents was overflowing.
The worst of Jinjiang Academy is also a showman, everyone is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, compared with those who raise people to enter the scholars, what is slightly worse is the heat of making a fuss, or luck.
Everyone studied hard, and what they dreamed of was to come out to be an official and make a fortune, or to realize the simple revenge in their hearts.
In the past few years, Yang Lin has risen strongly, and he didn't expect that a classmate who was ridiculed in the past would become a big hero in the eyes of everyone, some people were unwilling in their hearts, some people secretly sighed that their luck was not good, and some thought about how to stand out.
This may be the reason why Ma Gan, the governor of Sichuan, died in battle, and everyone mobilized local squires to persuade Yang Lin to act as governor.
The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, now the war is in chaos, the local economy is withering, everyone is living a very hard time, how can they refuse to be rich in front of them?
You can choose to join the army, politics, education, and business, which includes almost all the aspirations of ancient scholars.
Those who choose to join the army can enter the academy to study for six months, and then start as a grassroots squad leader.
Those who are engaged in politics can first intern for three months, and then be assigned to the locality, starting from the grassroots Xiangfang Township Chief, or be recruited into the local small cabinet.
Last year, more than 30 primary schools were opened in northern Sichuan, and the same number of primary schools will be opened in the newly occupied prefectures and counties this year.
As for business, it is even more of a shortage of talents, and at present, the Volunteers have set up ordnance shops, shipyards, and money banks, and they need too many talents.
……
Although a few people have doubts, most of them are still actively engaged in the career that Yang Lin has planned for everyone.
People often say that ancient Chinese scholars were pedantic and conformist, but from the Westernization Movement, from the Republic of China, and from the reform and opening up, it can be found that the main reason is that everyone has been out of touch with society for too long, and what they have learned is out of touch with society.
As long as you put everyone into the society, with your ingenuity, after some crawling and rolling, many people should be able to become the pillars of the party.
