The 206th Chua's Academy
After the autumn harvest of the sixth year of Yuanfeng, on the land in the northeast corner of Jingshi, there was a very wide area and a large-scale school - "Cai's School", and its first chief was Zeng Gong, Mr. Nanfeng.
People fight for a breath of Buddha for a stick of incense, and the clay people also have a three-point temper, not to mention Cai Dao?
Cai Dao looked at Yan Mansion three times, and even one of his subordinates dared to do this. Therefore, he held his breath and asked Chen Shidao to meet Zeng Gong.
This is the real reason why Cai Dao deliberately befriended Old Man Zeng.
This Cai's school was built by Cai Dao himself with full funding. Today, only a rough framework has been built, and many of the facilities that Cai Dao envisioned to build have not yet started. Moreover, at the turn of summer and autumn, Bianliang City has reached the rainy season again, which is not suitable for construction, and it will be winter in three months. Therefore, when the facilities of this school are really complete, we will have to wait until next summer.
With famous teachers, it will not be difficult for Cai Dao to recruit students again.
Zeng Gong's reputation is not covered.
On the first day of enrollment at the beginning of Cai's School, early in the morning, tens of thousands of people gathered at the gate of the school.
The reason why so many people were able to gather on the first day was because the purpose of the "Cai Academy" was not to recruit those students who were interested in the imperial examination, but Cai Dao put the first enrollment goal on those children from poor families.
Before Cai Dao reopened the museum, he released news in the north and east of the outer city of Bianliang City, saying that Cai Dao, the 'fortune boy', would open a school, and the mountain chief was naturally Zeng Gong.
There will be a variety of courses offered in the academy in the future.
At the beginning, Cai Dao didn't plan to be too deviant, as long as the children were taught the six arts of gentlemen - etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics. The six arts are from "Zhou Li Bao": "Raising the son of the country with Taoism is the six arts of teaching." That is, it is often said that there are six arts in the five meridians and six arts.
This is where the school opens, teaching students the main thing.
And the most important of them are books, royal and mathematics.
After all, most children are just mortals, no matter how capable the teacher is, no matter how famous the teacher is, no matter how good the teaching is, but what the students can learn by themselves still depends on their own talent, understanding and perseverance.
If anyone is willing to learn archery, Cai Dao will also invite archery masters to teach these children.
However, in the current political ecology of the Great Song Kingdom, soldiers are inherently inferior and have no human rights. Those ordinary people would rather let their children learn a trade than their children to become a big soldier with little interest in the future.
Therefore, Cai Dao also adapted to the situation and changed the course of 'shooting' to a hundred skills. As long as these children are exposed to skilled jobs such as carpentry, blacksmithing, farming, pig and sheep raising, medicine, and cooking at a very young age.
Cai Dao's fundamental purpose in opening this school is mainly to let these children learn some crafts and have a means of making a living when they leave.
Of course, if there are children who are talented and can read books, Cai Dao will still introduce them to the road of the imperial examination.
However, Cai Dao didn't expect that he and Zeng Gong would have such a great influence, and tens of thousands of people came at once, and it seemed that the crowd outside the gate still had a tendency to gather more and more.
If this continues, there may be some big mess.
The 'Cai's Academy' has insufficient teachers and incomplete facilities. Cai Dao originally planned to recruit only two to three thousand people in the first year. However, looking at the crowd outside, there are now no less than 5,000 children gathered.
Cai Dao immediately made a decision and immediately began to enroll.
However, looking at the current development of the situation, it must increase the restrictions on the source of recruitment.
So, after thinking about it, Cai Dao wrote a notice and asked people to post it on the walls on both sides of the entrance to the school.
Paihua and another brother with a loud voice inform the anxiously waiting parents and children.
As long as the content is roughly three,
First, the age limit is between five and seven years old;
Second, only one child is accepted per household, and, in particular, the older one is to be admitted;
Third, only children from the outer city are enrolled, and only children from the north and east cities are enrolled.
This rule is a little weird, but Cai Dao is also considered by himself. After all, the school is located in the northeast corner of the outer city, and the south and west cities are too far from here. It is impossible for Cai Dao to keep these children in a circle, and on holidays, they still have to go home to see their parents.
The nursery has been placed in another place, but Cai Dao has disassociated himself from it.
The children adopted in Bianliang City, as well as the twenty boys adopted by Cai Dao when he was in Xiaocili, were left in the new nursery. And the children of those clans and families have basically returned to their own families.
Only Hua Xianqi and his brothers were left by Cai Dao's side, as well as the eighty-one girls Cai Dao adopted in Xiaoci, led by Hua Lanxi.
The little confusion is still asleep.
Fortunately, with the help of these young but literate girls, the enrollment matter gradually stabilized.
Seeing the notice, some people cheered happily, some lamented again and again, and some even grabbed the feet and necks of the flower and begged for something?
However, Cai Dao himself is doing a great good deed, so it is impossible to meet everyone's demands at all.
The parents whose children were selected left with joy, but the crowd at the entrance of the school did not decrease.
It was noon, and Cai Dao counted that at this time, the school had already enrolled 3,000 boys between the ages of six and seven.
If it is recruited, Cai Dao's school will not be able to digest it at all.
Therefore, Cai Dao had to get up, stand on the table used for registration, and said loudly: "Bianliang City's fathers and villagers, when the school was first built, the teachers didn't have it, and they really couldn't accept students. You'd better disperse! ”
When Cai Dao shouted, the people in front of him still consciously closed their mouths and listened carefully to the words of this prodigy. It's a pity that his words can't touch the hearts of these people and meet the demands of these parents.
"I, Cai Dao, am here to promise. After tomorrow's autumn harvest, as long as you come here to register, this school will no longer set restrictions and will be enrolled. Actually, Cai Dao himself knew what he said just now, and it was not convincing. He just wanted everyone to calm down.
As soon as the promise was spoken, the people below breathed a sigh of relief. The reputation of this trailmaster is still very good, and most people plan to leave with their children just like that.
Who knows, at this time, Cai Daoyou spoke: "Of course, there are no more restrictions, it's not that there are no restrictions." If you will be seventeen or eighteen years old next year, this school will still not admit you. When he poured, Poor Dao had to go to Lord Yin of Kaifeng Mansion to check the household registration. ”
At this moment, those who did not leave were all dispersed at once.
The matter of Cai's Academy is settled.
However, in order to cope with the great changes in the situation after that, Cai Dao did more than that.
