At that time, the enrollment of Sanwei Academy officially began.

Unlike other enrollment at Sanwei Academy, which was full before it began, when the enrollment was officially enrolled, the number of applicants who came in advance was only seven or eight.

However, Ji Ning was not disappointed.

Students who read the Four Books and the Five Classics are all people who can afford to read, and even in the prosperous Jinling City, there are not many families who can really afford to study. And families who are willing to spend money to send their children to study, of course, will not casually send their own reading seeds to Sanwei Academy in order to occupy this half month of free teaching, and must be decided after careful consideration.

In addition, this is not a good time to recruit students, and the enrollment of students in colleges or private schools is set after the Spring Festival, around the Lantern Festival.

The plan of the year lies in the spring, whether it is the private school of the college or the family for the children to study.

Therefore, Ji Ning set the deadline for enrollment for one month.

At the beginning, there were seven or eight students who signed up, which was already very good.

However, it is a bit unexpected that almost all of the parents of these students are coming for Ji Ning.

When the parents of the students who led the students of half the university saw Ji Ning, they immediately looked up politely and greeted Ji Ning, and then asked the students to bow and say hello to Ji Ning.

Ji Ning responded politely to these parents, and at the same time noticed that these parents were dressed plainly, and some even wore patched clothes. But it is quite possible that their children are well dressed.

In other words, the people who came to sign up were all poor children whose families could barely afford to study.

This was expected, and Ji Ning was very calm.

When Sanwei Academy was originally built in the west of the city, it was already decided that Sanwei Academy would take root among the common people.

Ji Ning introduced these parents and students to a temporary admissions office, and then asked Mi Zhirong to strictly assess and interview these students who came to sign up one by one.

During Mi Zhirong's assessment and interview with the registered students, some registered students came one after another.

Due to the strict assessment and interview, although there were not many students who came to sign up on the first day, Mi Zhirong had not completed the assessment and interview from the morning to the evening, and only the remaining registered students could only be postponed until tomorrow to continue the assessment and interview.

Moreover, among the students who signed up for the assessment interview on the first day, only two students from the eleventh were able to pass the assessment interview, and the acceptance rate was less than 20%.

The parents of those students who were eliminated were all shocked and surprised, and even unconvinced, and looked for Ji Ning's theory one after another.

It's no wonder that the enrollment of Sanwei Academy never limited any conditions for students to sign up for before, as long as they can afford the money, even fools can enroll.

Now, the enrollment conditions are suddenly so strict, it is simply harsh.

These parents can't get used to it for a while, and they can't help but complain.

Ji Ning's response is very simple, that is, this enrollment is to teach the Four Books and Five Classics, and those who want to participate in the imperial examination must be strictly required, and if they are not qualified, they are not qualified.

Those parents left angrily and threatened to spread the word everywhere, so that Sanwei Academy could not recruit students.

When night fell, the lights were on, and just after the day's enrollment work, Ji Ning and Mi Zhirong stood in the courtyard of Sanwei Academy and talked.

"Ji Gongzi, is the assessment of concubines too strict?" Mi Zhirong asked with some concern.

Ji Ning shook his head with a faint smile and said, "No, that's how it should be." The students' qualifications are too poor, no matter how hard they teach, it is difficult to achieve success, and it will only ruin the reputation of Sanwei Academy. Although Sanwei Academy was built in the downtown area in the west of the city and rooted in the common people, we can't indulge in self-indulgence, we only absorb the noble sons of the poor, cultivate talents and raise people, and even Jinshi! ”

"Except, of course, for the beginner class of literacy and writing."

"Miss Zhirong, tomorrow will assess the students who have signed up for the interview, please be more strict in the assessment." Ji Ning said to Mi Zhirong.

Mi Zhirong saluted slightly: "No." ”

Next, Ji Ning asked He An to drive the carriage to send Mi Zhirong home first.

On the second day, at the end of the day, only eight students came to sign up.

However, Mi Zhirong did not lower her requirements because of this, and only allowed one student to pass the assessment interview, and the acceptance rate was even lower than yesterday.

After the end of school, Mi Zhirong exchanged enrollment with Ji Ning, and Fang Xin couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Ji Ning calmly comforted Mi Zhirong and said, "You should know that I don't expect Sanwei Academy to make money at all. The restraint of the junior class is enough to support the daily operation of Sanwei Academy. Therefore, we must stick to our original intention, and we would rather lack than abuse, even if there are only three students, then only teach three students! ”

In the modern society before the time travel, why are key high schools so powerful? In addition to the strong faculty, excellent hardware facilities and strict management, the source of students is the biggest key. Except for some of the students who enter key high schools, all of them are hard-earned students in the local area.

If Sanwei Academy wants to develop, make a name for itself, and not be synonymous with a bad academy, it is necessary to work the source of students, and resolutely refuse to accept those who have no qualifications and talents.

Mi Zhirong heard the determination from Ji Ning's tone, and her heart immediately re-strengthened.

On the morning of the third day, Ji Ning took a carriage to Sanwei Academy as usual.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the academy, before he had time to get off the carriage, Ji Ning immediately heard a lot of noise outside.

Without waiting to get out of the carriage, he lifted the curtain on the side wall of the carriage and looked out, and suddenly saw a large number of people gathered in front of the gate of the academy, and the students and their families of the half-university were probably fifty or sixty people combined.

"Wow, young master, there are so many people!" Yu Ling also leaned over, watched through the small window on the side wall of the carriage, and exclaimed with a look of surprise, "Don't worry about recruiting enough students now!" ”

Ji Ning put down the curtain and nodded with a smile.

On the third day, the number of applicants suddenly skyrocketed, and he was not very surprised, and he knew why.

It turns out that this enrollment, although the bundle is no longer like selling words to collect money like before, it is still two percent cheaper than other ordinary private schools, and ordinary poor people can afford it by gritting their teeth.

In addition, Ji Ning also promised to invest no less than 50 taels of silver every year to reward outstanding students in the enrollment publicity.

Such favorable conditions are attractive to many poor families whose economic conditions are not very good.

However, these poor families send their children to study not only for literacy, but for the imperial examination, the examination of talent and jinshi, although the conditions of Sanwei Academy are excellent, but they are not willing to send them to Sanwei Academy to study, for fear of delaying their children's studies.

However, Sanwei Academy's enrollment was suddenly unexpectedly strict, with an acceptance rate of less than 20% on the first day and almost 10% on the second day.

The news spread, and after two days of fermentation, everyone realized that the strategy of the Three Flavors Academy had changed radically.

The poor family, who was hesitant to wait and see, immediately decided to go to Sanwei Academy early this morning to queue up to sign up, worried about missing the opportunity.
