Li Hang didn't expect this situation, after all, this is a matter of custom, just like the festival in later generations, why do you say there is a festival? Isn't that natural?

But along the way, Li Hang can be regarded as seeing the carriage of this era.

Even if the futon is padded, this carriage can still shock people, and what kind of car shock is not a matter in the face of this shock, this is the real car shock.

Li Hang, who was bumped and wanted to vomit, shook his head depressedly, although it was very refreshing to look at the surrounding scenery along the way, but along the way, Li Hang also found some problems.

The Great Winning Dynasty is very powerful, at least in terms of land area, it is already about the same as the Great Han Dynasty, but in reality?

The people of this place are very poor, and the north is still full of graves.

Why?

The harassment of the nomads of the north! Every winter, when they don't have enough food, they come down and loot, and these people go crazy burning, killing and looting.

Along the way, Li Hang had already seen a lot of graves.

A lot of these are dead at one time.

They were all plundered and died.

Miserable!

When he arrived at this Huishan Academy, Li Hang realized what was going on with this grand event.

The gathering of literati in the north is not a matter of one sentence or two sentences.

The reason why they all come to Huishan Academy is because there is a huge Confucian temple in this academy, which was officially built.

"Tomorrow there will be a memorial service, and the old man will come to you to go to the dean later!" patted himself on the back, Zhu Zhengheng skillfully beckoned a group of students, and moved these materials to the college's warehouse.

And Li Hang followed his wife and sister-in-law to stand there and visit the academy.

"Master! This place for reading is different! That's not a big deal! ”

It covers an area that spans almost the entire mountain, and even the bottom of the mountain is the field of this academy.

Li Hang can be regarded as underestimating this academy.

Originally, he only read the sage books, and he really didn't know about this situation, but this Huishan Academy is a bit similar to the Shaolin Temple, the fields under the mountain are all theirs, and around this mountain, the people under the mountain are all their tenants.

Looking at this academy entrenched on the mountain, Li Hang was even more amazed.

The place is quite well built, and there are plenty of rooms on it, enough for these people to come and play.

And this time it was not only Li Hang and a group of students who came over, but also a lot of businessmen who came here.

After settling his wife and sister-in-law, Li Hang asked Wang Dali to guard outside. "If there is any problem, go to the nearby patrol students and the people here, and wrap up Yurong and them."

Looking at Zhu Zhengheng who came over, Li Hang looked at him curiously with a pair of eyes.

"Let's go! Go to the dean with the old man! ”

Li Hang nodded and followed behind him.

After walking several steps, Li Hang reached the highest point of this academy, where the teachers lived. The wooden house looked quite a different charm, and when he entered, Li Hang smelled a faint fragrance.

It's not incense! It's the scent of wood!

I'll go! Rich man!

It's the smell of wood coming from the furniture.

No matter how you look at such furniture, it is a high-end product!

Li Hang looked at the bright lights inside and knew how rich the people inside were.

The people who can light the lamps in these years are all rich people, after all, the lamps at this time are all burning oil, either animal fat, or vegetable fat, which is more expensive than animal fat.

It's not something that everyone can afford.

"Student Li Hang, I've met Dean Wang! Seeing that the teachers are still in good health, the students are relieved! Li Hang stood at the door with a smile, and he was frightened as soon as he entered the door.

There was a large group of teachers sitting in the academy.

Sitting in the middle was Dean Wang, an old man with gray hair, who was probably in his fifties and could be considered to have a long life. In addition, he is well maintained, his temperament is still very good, and at first glance, he feels that he is the kind of elderly intellectual, and the scarf on his head is also clean. The teachers around him are similar to Li Hang's impression, most of them are middle-aged people in their twenties and thirties, and they have more or less taught themselves.

What the hell is this?

"Li Hang is here!" Dean Wang touched his beard and looked at Li Hang with a curious expression.

Seeing Li Hang coming, Dean Wang stood up. "Lord Yuan also said that what you said makes sense, why don't you come here and talk to us! Just so we can hear your thoughts, too. ”

Yuan Jishi said that it made sense, they naturally wanted to hear it, and this was said by a former student, they would naturally pay attention to it, after all, Yuan Jishi attached so much importance to it, of course they would also pay attention to it.

"What's going on...... this matter" Li Hang hesitated for a while, and then glanced at the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the side.

I picked up a pen and wrote on paper.

After a few minutes of writing, the paper was picked up and displayed in front of them. "What I said about the lack of reading is because of the problem of affluence, which can be explained by a very intuitive example."

Dean Wang touched his beard and nodded with satisfaction, seeing that Li Hang quickly entered the state, he was also quite satisfied.

And looking at their situation at this time, many people were even more disdainful of Li Hang's remarks.

After all, all of them have taught Li Hang, and it can be said that all of them have a feeling that what Li Hang says will not exceed what they teach.

But after seeing the piece of paper that Li Hang held up, they were a little stunned.

There is nothing on the top, there is only a string of numbers on the top.

"The first row of numbers represents the annual income of an average family! I take the porters on the dock as an example, each of them earns a maximum of 100 wen a day, and the maximum income per month is about 3,000 wen, deducting the cost of eating about 1,000 wen, even if you save a little more, that is, the price of saving 2,000 wen, but this is talking about people with high incomes, generally speaking, when the income is not good, their income will not exceed 50 wen a day, so how much money can the whole family have? ”

If it's fifty wen, it's five hundred wen left at most a month, and it's not even consistent.

And there are other overheads.

You have to make clothes for half a year, right? There are three illnesses and two pains!

These are trivial things that even ordinary people want to do.

That is to say, the annual savings are almost within 6 to 30 percent, and the farmers may be better, but overall it will not be much worse. Other low-level people are almost like this, the tuition fee of our academy is about 30 yuan a year, this is just a simple tuition fee, students always have to pay some other fees for learning, such as pen, ink, paper and inkstone, these students want to learn well, they have to buy a little paper to practice by themselves, so that the cost alone is about 40 to 50 yuan, so when the annual expenses of ordinary families can not meet the expenses of a student, let alone learning knowledge, survival is the first priority! ”

Li Hang didn't say anything, but began to say along with the numbers he had written.

The first line is the annual income range, the second line is the tuition range, and the third line is the focus of Li Hang.

"But this is income in a stable state, and it is not immune to all kinds of accidents!"

The hearts of the teachers moved, and they remembered that Li Hang dropped out of school because of this.

I'm afraid that's why he thought of this!

A group of people glanced at each other, and then immediately showed some knowing expressions, this is really strange, and this Li Hang wants to do this kind of thing, what is he going to do?

Seeing that a group of teachers didn't speak, Li Hang raised his fingers. "Three points restrict the development of the northern scholars, the first is wealth! This is what I said before, the question of how much money can everyone make, the second point is war, the northern people not only always come to burn and loot, once they burn and loot, not only will they lose the population, but also lose a lot of money and property, the people are not happy, if they are unstable after birth, who will choose to study? Finally, the third point is actually a more troublesome point, that is, the source of the paper! The paper of our academy has to be transported from other places, and the same is true of books, which seriously restricts the development of our northern scholars. ”

Li Hang said this before he looked at Dean Wang, who was sitting above, and looked at the satisfied smile on his face, Li Hang scratched his head embarrassedly. "It's all the students' own thinking! If there is anything wrong, please ask the teachers for advice! ”

Zhu Zhengheng and a group of teachers looked confused.

What you say is reasonable, not only is there no problem, but it is all extracted from life, what evaluation can these teachers have?

Dean Wang slapped his thigh excitedly. "Good! Worthy of being a student of my Huishan Academy! With this statement, it is enough to step into the top five of the academy! ”
