This year, Xiangzhou has become a big winner in the imperial examination, a total of four scholars have been admitted to the Jinshi, ranking first in the north of the entire Yellow River, not only four people are on the list, but also two people are admitted to the first list, and even the third Tanhua is also captured by the Xiangzhou scholars, Xiangzhou is all rejoicing, and thousands of scholars in the state also specially held a grand celebration parade.

Compared with the joy of Xiangzhou, Tangyin County is full of boiling, the news of Li Yanqing's third place in the examination has spread all over the whole county of Tangyin, every household is lit up with lights, the sound of firecrackers does not stop all night, and the county government also took out the lanterns of the Shangyuan Festival and re-hung them on the main street to celebrate the joy.

Last year, when the whole army was wiped out in Tangyin County, just when everyone was depressed, the news of Li Yanqing's third place in the examination arrived in time, and the haze in everyone's hearts was washed, especially Jiang Dadao, the county governor, regarded it as the capital of his own promotion, and personally led a group of officials to Li Wen Village, Xiaohe Township, to report the good news.

But the real celebration center is still in Xiaohe Township, although the Spring Society has just ended, but Li Daqi took out 500 yuan, once again set up a greenhouse in the open space of the Lushan Spring Society, and set up a three-day and three-night flowing water banquet, the villagers of Xiaohe Township came from all directions, opened their stomachs and ate big, and celebrated Brother Qing's examination to explore flowers.

Early in the morning, Li Daqi and Yao Wannian took more than 200 students of Lushan School to worship Yao Ding's tomb, and the current teaching of Lushan School is served by Yao Ding's eldest son Yao Wannian, which is a rather ridiculous replacement, the previous Lushan School teaching Li Daguang served as Tangyin Xuezheng, and Tangyin Xuezheng Yao Wannian inherited his father's will and served as the teacher of Lushan School.

After worshipping Yao Ding, Yao Wannian invited Li Daqi to the school, Yao Wannian's room was still his father's room, and there were still couplets written by Li Yanqing to his father on the wall, Li Daqi read his son's couplet with his hand, and sighed: "No wonder Yanqing can be admitted to Tanhua, he has been a genius since he was a child!" ”

"My father used to say that!"

Yao Wannian put two cups of tea on the table and said with a smile: "I still remember the prodigy meeting back then!" Didn't Li Zhizhou say that as long as Yanqing is carefully cultivated, he will grow up to be a jinshi? ”

Speaking of careful cultivation, Li Daqi is even more touched, if it were not for the years of cultivation of Master Yao Ding, how could there be Yanqing today, and how could he have the opportunity to completely turn over, he has always been full of gratitude to Yao Ding in his heart.

"What difficulties do you need my help in the academy now?" Li Daqi said very frankly and sincerely, he sincerely hoped to help the development of the school.

Yao Wannian sighed and said: "The biggest problem of the school is that there are too many students, the place is too small, my father extended the school system by two years when he was alive, and the students who came out of the school can directly participate in the state school examination......

"Is Jiang Dadao allowed?" Li Daqi couldn't help but interrupt Yao Wannian's words, he hurriedly smiled apologetically, and motioned for Yao Wannian to continue.

"At first, of course Jiang Dadao refused, but then the state continued to pressurize, Jiang Dadao still compromised, he proposed a concession condition, the school students must participate in the county examination of the liberation test, and only after passing the exam can they go to the state school examination, my father thought that this condition was fair, so he agreed, as a result, last year's liberation test, only two percent of the county students have passed the county examination, and there are few scholars who have been admitted to the state, and all fifty students in our Lushan School have been admitted to the county examination, and forty-five people have been admitted to the state school, ranking first in the entire Xiangzhou, Now Lushan School is not only famous in Tangyin, but also in the entire Xiangzhou, and there are more than 1,000 students who strongly request to come to our Lushan School to study.

Seeing that Brother Qing was admitted to Tanhua, I estimate that the market of Lushan School will be detonated, and the biggest problem now is that there is no place for students to attend classes, we can only accommodate more than 200 people here at most, which is already full, or we can only expand the school, but Jiang Dadao has already let go and will not give us a penny. ”

"Money is not a problem, the key is whether there is a place for expansion, and where to hire professors?"

"The place is the cemetery behind the school, my family has looked for it, as long as each household compensates for the cost of moving the grave, they are willing to support the expansion of the school, and there is a piece of land at the foot of the mountain, the two places add up to about 120 acres, we now have only 20 acres in the school, which is six times larger, and can accommodate more than 1,000 students to study and stay, and I found a teacher Zhou Daru ....."

"Is it Zhou Wenbo, a great Confucian in Linzhang County?"

"It's him, his grandson heard that he was also admitted to the Jinshi this year, he is willing to come to our academy to sit in the town, as the chief professor, I plan to hire some young scholars with real talents from the four major academies with high salaries to teach, but these are just plans, because I don't have the money to implement, and the township can't make up so much money, the only thing that is implemented is that the state has promised that as long as the number of our students exceeds five hundred, we will be approved to be promoted to the academy, Lushan Academy, which is my father's lifelong dream."

"Have you calculated how much it costs?"

"I have carefully calculated, in the future, I can rely on tuition to balance the income, the key is to start a large amount of money, including moving graves to buy land, this is the big head, this piece alone costs 2,500 yuan, as well as leveling the land to build houses, buying tables, chairs and beds, teacher recruitment, etc., at least 4,000 yuan before and after, and now everyone in the township has made up 1,000 yuan, and there is still a difference of 3,000 yuan."

Li Daqi nodded, "I was also about to take out 10,000 yuan to fund Xiangzhou scholars, and then I thought about it, supporting Xiangzhou scholars is a bit unrealistic, and Yanqing also clearly asked me to support Lushan Academy, so I will use this 10,000 yuan to support Lushan Academy!" ”

Yao Wannian was a little stunned, 10,000 yuan!

He suddenly reacted and hurriedly waved his hand, "Daqi, you really don't need so much!" ”

Li Daqi said with a smile: "The person I am most grateful to in my life is your father, without him there would be no Yanqing today, this 10,000 yuan is the lottery money I won when Yanqing participated in the bow horse competition, isn't it good to use it to support Lushan Academy?" If the money is not enough in the future, even if you open your mouth to me, Yanqing and I hope that Lushan Academy will get better and better, and become the best academy in Xiangzhou and even Hebei West Road. ”

Yao Wannian was extremely moved in his heart, and bowed down to give a salute to Chief Li Daqi, "My father knows that he will definitely be very grateful for Daqi's generosity." ”

........

In the afternoon, Li Daqi was chatting with a group of villagers in the greenhouse, and at this time, Li Zhen walked over quickly and whispered: "Jiang Zhixian is here!" ”

Li Daqi was stunned, Jiang Dadao came for the second time, and he hurriedly saluted the villagers: "Everyone drink slowly, I'll come when I go." ”

Everyone laughed and said: "Knowing the county is important, but it doesn't hurt to go!" ”

Li Daqi walked out of the greenhouse quickly, and happened to meet Jiang Dadao of Zhixian County surrounded by a group of people, Li Daqi hurriedly hugged his fists and smiled: "Jiang Zhixian is running around for the people, and he is worthy of being a model for officials!" ”

Li Daqi is just a businessman, but he has the title of Seven-Rank Wu Delang, and he is still the Son of Heaven himself, which is higher than the eight-rank Tangyin Zhixian, Jiang Dadao is also extremely polite to him, and he does not dare to put on an official stand in front of him, not to mention that Li Daqi is still the big proprietor of Baoyan Zhai, and his strong financial resources are not allowed to be despised by Jiang Dadao.

Jiang Dadao hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Li Yuanwai has won the award!" ”

Li Daqi saw that Zhixian had brought more than a dozen entourage, so he said to Li Yanbiao behind him: "Take these brothers to drink in the greenhouse, and each of them will give five taels of silver for tea." ”

This is where Li Daqi will behave, these officials follow the magistrate to run around, there are few who do not complain, but they have benefited, not only are they all happy, but the magistrate also has face, which is extremely worry-free.

Jiang Dadao secretly praised in his heart, so he smiled and said, "Let Li Yuanwai break the bank." ”

He turned back to his entourage and said, "Don't thank Li Yuanwai yet!" ”

More than a dozen entourages were very happy, and they all hugged their fists to thank Li Daqi, and went into the greenhouse to drink one by one.

At this time, Li Daqi waved his hand and said, "Jiang Zhixian, please sit here!" ”

Li Daqi asked Jiang Zhixian to sit down in a slightly better greenhouse, and let people put the wine, Jiang Dadao smiled and said: "Two days ago, I came to report the good news to Li Yuanwai, the time was very hurried, and many things were not thought through. ”

"Jiang Zhixian, please speak!"

"First of all, the issue of rewards, Tangyin County has not been out of the imperial examination for decades, not to mention the third Tanhua, the last time the Jinshi was in the Shenzong period, when the county rewarded five hundred yuan, I think the reward of a few taels of silver Li Yuanwai is not good, so this reward I plan to change the way, I have changed the name of the county school diligence building to Tanhua Building, and encourage the county bachelors to take Ling Lang as a model and study hard, this is one of them; Secondly, I want to know, does Li Yuanwai have a house in the county? ”

Li Daqi shook his head, "I'm sorry, but there is no house in the county." ”

"Sure enough, I guessed it, that's the case, Li Wengui had a house in the county, and after Li Wengui committed a crime, this house was also confiscated as an official residence, I plan to give this to Li Yuanwai, as the Tanhua Mansion of Tangyin County, I don't know if Li Yuanwai accepts it?"

How could Li Daqi want Li Wengui's house, if he accepted it, it would be strange if the clansmen of Lushanfang didn't scold him behind his back, Li Daqi immediately shook his head and said: "I understand the kindness of Zhixian, if you must build Tanhua Mansion, it is better to use the old mansion of Li Wencun It is more meaningful, Yanqing was born there after all, grew up there, there are many traces of his life and study, the house will be expanded by me, and then I will ask Jiang Zhixian to inscribe the house card." ”

"Isn't that mansion in the county better?"

"Qiyu Zhi County, the mansion in the county will produce clan conflicts."

Jiang Dadao suddenly smiled: "Okay! Just use the old house as a flower exploration house, no need for Li Yuan to go out to pay, all the costs of this house are borne by the county. ”

Li Daqi thought about it, then turned around and took out a hundred taels of gold, and gently pushed it in front of Jiang Dadao, "The house will be repaired by the county, but I will bear the cost!" ”

Jiang Dadao's eyes narrowed with a smile, Huzi has no dog father, how can Li Yanqing's father be so smart! A hundred taels of gold fell into his pocket so justifiably.

"The second is the issue of compiling county chronicles, Yanqing must be placed at the forefront of the Hall of Fame, I hope that the county chronicles and township chronicles can be unified, and after compiling them, let Li Yuanwai see them."
