Chapter 96: Gao Yang's Ambition

The wind is cold, and the snow is drifting.

The neighbor who came to visit at this time was surprisingly Gao Yang.

She is still dressed as a woman and a man, dressed like a showy gentleman. Standing in the courtyard with her hands behind her back, admiring the plum plant, Li Xiao's footsteps woke her up.

"San Lang, we will be neighbors in the future, please take care of us in the future." Gao Yang smiled brightly.

Li Xiao's brows furrowed.

"What, you're not welcome?"

"How dare you." said so, but Li Xiao really didn't welcome Gao Yang to be a neighbor, if there was no previous past, Li Xiao didn't care about Gao Yang being his neighbor, but because of the previous things, now she came, obviously with bad intentions.

To be honest, he is a small flat-headed commoner, and he can't afford to be tossed by a person like Gao Yang, who loves to die.

"This Blue Creek is poor and bad, why did the princess come here to buy Zhuangzi?"

"Because the mountains and rivers here are beautiful."

The sound of children reading aloud came from the corner of the compound, and the princess turned her head to look, "Before I came, I heard about a lot of San Lang's charitable deeds, such as changing rents, running schools, etc., and the tenants below were all praised." I've been your neighbor, and now I can only do good. ”

"I didn't do anything, and the landlord and the tenant should also have a good relationship, that is the way to mutual benefit in the long run."

"That's very good, you explain these things to me in detail, I'll study hard."

Li Xiao didn't believe that Gao Yang would really be interested in these things, but he couldn't reach out and not hit the smiling person, so he had to be helpless and perfunctory.

Briefly introduced the rent change and the original intention of running the school.

"It's a smart move, the amount of rent change is actually not much different from the rent originally received, but it can make the tenants more motivated, and you can run a school, it doesn't seem to cost much, but the praise you receive is amazing."

"Originally, I also planned to follow your example to set up a school, so that the children of tenants in my village can study for free, but now I have changed my mind, and I will give you the money that was originally used to run the school."

"Give it to me?" Li Xiao was surprised.

"That's right, isn't your school called Lanxi Academy, just make it bigger, or you won't be able to live up to the name." I heard that Cheng Wu, Xue Wu, Liu Si, Liu Si, these sons and brothers have all invested money in your academy, and they have also become a scholar, so I will also invest money to join the gang, and I will also become a director, and my only condition is that the children of the tenants in my village can also come to the academy to study for free in the future. Gao Yang said with a smile.

Li Xiao hesitated, Gao Yang wanted to get involved, which made people subconsciously want to refuse, this person was too capable of death. But on the other hand, Gaoyang has a wide range of resources.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse, your original intention of running the school is good, and I will join the gang to benefit one party. Not only did I invest money in the college, but with my connections, I was able to invite some better gentlemen. Now there is only one gentleman in your academy, and you can't teach it if you have too many children, so we can't get other people's children in, but we mislead people's children! ”

"Don't worry, I don't interfere in the management of the academy, now you can rest assured."

Li Xiao looked at Gao Yang, a little surprised by her words, it was money and Mr. Invitation, so you have to have a plan for it.

"Dare to ask the princess what she wants?"

Gao Yang smiled.

"Then what is San Lang doing with your school plan?"

What do you want to figure out yourself? To put it simply, Li Xiao runs a school to get a roll call and show some favor to the tenants, and in the long run, he also has plans to train some people for himself. And what the princess wants, she must not be uncommon to the praise of the tenants.

"I'll take 300 guan out to build a academy between our two Zhuangzi, and then come out with another 200 guan to buy books and build a library pavilion, and another 100 guan every year to do the expenses of the academy, only ask for the name of the director of the academy, and then let the academy allow my children of Zhuangzi tenants to study for free, this transaction is very cost-effective, right?"

It's a good deal, it's a great deal.

The cost-effective Li Xiao has no reason to refuse.

"Come with me."

Gao Yang said suddenly, he couldn't keep up with the change of topic.

"Fang Taifu came to me that day!" Li Xiao suddenly mentioned.

Gao Yang paused for a moment, then continued to walk forward, without looking back, "As expected, what did I tell you?" ”

"I said something to let me go to Jiangnan, and said that he would give me a travel fee."

"You promised?"

"Nope."

"And that's to be expected."

"In the end, he left unhappily, and before leaving, he gave me a title deed of a few hundred acres of land, and today you came, I just returned the title deed to you."

Gao Yang snorted, "Since he has to give it to you, then you can keep it, anyway, what he has is money." ”

"A gentleman is not subject to vain, I dare not accept this money."

Gao Yang turned his head and looked at Li Xiao, "He is really far behind you." ”

There is nothing to say about this.

Li Xiao took out the title deed from his arms and handed it to Gao Yang.

Gao Yang took it, and then stuffed it back into Li Xiao's hand, "If you don't want to accept his things, then I'll take them back for him." Now, I give it to you. ”

"Then I can't take it either."

The title deed of hundreds of acres of land, although this land is not in Guannei, but in Jingzhou, but it is always a lot of assets.

Gao Yang thought for a while, "I sold this land when I went back, and then bought a piece of land in this Lantian and gave it to the academy as a school field, and planted it as a tenant, and the rent obtained was used as the teachers and students of the academy to eat." ”

Government-run schools have school land, and the school land is rented, and the rent collected every year is the salary of teachers and the subsidy of students.

Walking on the path in the field, it was bleak.

Gao Yang pointed to the crooked Blue Creek Road, "This place is actually quite good, block a dam, and you can also build two water mills, and both water mills can earn hundreds of times a year." After the dam is built, the fields upstream can be turned into irrigated land, which can increase the yield a lot. With water, rice can also be replanted, and the price of rice in Guanzhong is very high, and the income can be higher. ”

Li Xiao was a little impressed by Gao Yang, but he didn't expect her to have this kind of economic vision.

"Lanxi Township has more mountains and less water and water, and this Lanxi is the lifeblood of many people, and the government has never allowed the dam to be repaired in the upstream, which will inevitably make the downstream water shortage. However, by building some waterwheels by the river to carry water, it is possible to turn the land along the river into paddy fields to grow rice. ”

"What about the government's regulations, if I want to repair two water mills, who can stop it?"

As soon as he heard this kind of words, Li Xiao couldn't help but hold his forehead. She is a princess, and she does have the ability to be domineering, but Li Xiao doesn't want to make everyone angry.

The dam is repaired, and the income is more than a few hundred yuan a year, which seems to be very cool, but in the season of water shortage, you will undoubtedly cut off the lifeblood of the downstream, and everyone will hate you to death.

When the water shortage season comes, there are large-scale armed fights in many places because of the competition for water, and there are big fights between clans and villages, and nothing can happen in any year.

Gao Yang saw that Li Xiao was unhappy, and said with a smile, "Since you don't want to, then don't cultivate." ”
