Chapter 671: The Education Division's Grand Plan
The eastern suburbs of Jinling City, Zhongshan, the season of early autumn, the autumn is high and cool, the autumn wind is falling, at this moment, it is just evening, the residual sun is like blood, and the sunset is like a rainbow.
Jinling Academy!
In this large academy reflected in the light of the setting sun, there were bursts of bright scholars from time to time.
This is the largest academy in Wu today, and Jinling Academy has surpassed Jiangdong Academy, the first academy in Wu today, in terms of the number of students and the size of the area.
Of course, the influence of Jinling Academy is still not comparable to that of Jiangdong Academy.
Koto Academy is still the number one academy in the world.
A academy is not famous because of the number of people, not by the scale, but by the students, and now the students of Jiangdong Academy have emerged in the court.
Lu Xun, Bu Qi, Su Men...... The first batch of graduates have now begun to show their reputation in the Wu State Court, but the students of Jinling Academy have just stepped out of the gate of the academy.
There is no comparison between the two.
The sake study is located at the highest point of the academy, and has a geographical location with a view of the mountains.
In the study, the incense mats are spread on the floor, the sandalwood is faint, Zheng Xuan and Cai Yong are sitting opposite each other on the left and right of the bookcase, and a touch of residual sun light from the window obliquely shrouded in their bleak hunchbacked bodies, some melancholy, and some years of precipitation.
In the study, there was a third person, Sun Quan, as a junior, sitting on the side.
"Brother Kang Cheng, you are still at ease!"
Cai Yong took a sip of tea, raised his head slightly, looked at Zheng Xuan, sighed, and said lightly: "Once you enter the court, there will be no peace." The old man's good old age made this kid completely ruined! ”
In the middle of his words, he didn't forget to glance at Sun Quan, who was honestly sitting next to him.
Because of Sun Quan's plan, he walked out of Jiangdong Academy and became the director of the Education Department of the 24th Division, and it was the big education plan that he began to implement.
The so-called Great Education Program. There are two stages, the first of which is to establish a higher education hall in every county or province in the official name in the territory under the jurisdiction of the state of Wu to provide students with schooling.
The second stage is in every county. A primary school has been established to provide school for children between the ages of 6 and 13.
It was also for this big education plan that he walked out of the gate of Jiangdong Academy and walked out of the turbid water of the court.
When Sun Quan heard this, he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to answer the old man's words.
In fact, this is really his no, Cai Yong is now in his sixties, the age of sixties. In the next generation, it is also the age of retirement, in this era of ordinary age. He is already a long-lived person, and it is time to retire well.
Now that he has pulled him from the quiet academy closer to the cruel Huan Hai, he is more or less ashamed in his heart!
"Brother Bo, as the so-called capable person works harder, your body and bones are still quite strong, so you will be busy for a few more years. How many years older than your brother, this year has passed more than seventy, and the past two years have been riddled with illness, and now he is old and useless, and he has to pant for breath when he takes a few steps. You can't move it, and you can't leave the academy, otherwise such a famous thing will fall on your head! ”
Zheng Xuan stretched out his hand and stroked his goatee slightly, there was a glint of envy in his eyes, he looked at Cai Yong, and said with a smile: "If this matter is successful, you can be compared to the merits of Sage Kong!" ”
This is not a two-school academy, this is universal reading, which is an unimaginable thing in this era.
It is because of the advent of movable type printing that there is this opportunity.
But even if the ordinary princes have such a heart, they may not be willing to pay so much manpower and material resources to do it, you know, now the territory of Wu is huge, and a higher academy has been established in every county government in the country, which consumes manpower and material resources, which is an astronomical number, even if the rich Wu State cannot afford it.
The most important thing is that teaching is not a quick job, and if you want to produce talents, it will take at least ten years and eight years.
There is no immediate effect, but you have to go bankrupt to invest, this kind of loss-making business, in today's world, those who dare to do it, are willing to do it, may only be Sun Quan.
"Hmph, even if this kid can do something serious, the old man is willing to go out of the mountain to help!"
Cai Yong glanced at Sun Quan and said indifferently.
Although his tone was very flat, there was clearly a suppressed excitement in it.
The scholar has a good name, and he Cai Yong can not care about the rights of officialdom, but when he thinks that the entire Wu Kingdom will open the door to universal education by himself, his heart is more or less excited.
"Huh!"
When Sun Quan heard this, he smiled, he looked at the two old men with a pair of amber crystal eyes, and said with some flattery: "Isn't it true that Zhongmou can't find someone to carry the banner, otherwise he wouldn't let his father come to shoulder the burden of the Education Department, of course, this matter is also indispensable to the assistance of Master Zheng!" ”
Jiangdong Academy and Jinling Academy are cultivating talents, but the preservation of the Department of Education is to enlighten the wisdom of the people in the world, and today, the ratio of literate to illiterate reaches 1:100.
Even fewer have read books.
The biggest reason for the backwardness and superstition of this era is that most of the people who don't read books are ignorant and unreasonable.
"I know that there is nothing good about the two of you coming to our house today!" When Zheng Xuan heard this, he pursed his lips, and his heart began to be vigilant, he glanced at the two of them, and there was a cold glint in his eyes.
People are old and ghosts are old spirits, from the time the two of them came to the door together, he understood the reason why the two came to the door today.
"Master Zheng, we want to ......"
Sun Quan hurriedly wanted to analyze.
"Don't talk about it!"
Zheng Xuan didn't wait for the two to speak, looked at Cai Yong directly, and said resolutely: "Brother Bo, you want to poach people from the old man, but there is no door!" ”
If you want to complete the big education plan, the biggest trouble should be the teacher.
Therefore, the two of them came to poach people, because Jinling Academy has the most subjects and the most teaching teachers.
"Brother Kang Cheng, don't you give the king face?"
Cai Yong pulled Sun Quan out, a serious way.
"Brother Bo, you really think you brought this kid here. You can let the old man give you someone! You dream! Zheng Xuan said coldly: "He is your son-in-law, but he is also a disciple of the old man, there is no king here, the old man doesn't eat this!" ”
"It's been a long time, you're also a useless guy, and the old man pulled you to the door with a good eye!" Cai Yong was a little dissatisfied and put Sun Quan aside.
Sun Quan was so angry in his heart. But seeing that the two old men looked at each other like corns, they quickly became well-behaved and sat aside, deaf to them.
Sandwiched between two old men, he is not a person inside and out, and whoever he favors is a dead end.
Neither of these two old men regarded him as a noble king, and when one of them was angry, let alone scolded him angrily, he slapped him a few times. He had to greet him with a smile.
So not talking is the wisest choice.
"Good! Since you don't buy it, the king, you have to buy it! ”
Cai Yong's cloudy eyes became a little sharper, looked at Zheng Xuan, and said coldly: "When you established Jinling Academy, you poached people in my house, but a certain family didn't say anything, but now you turn your face and don't recognize people." It's not suitable! ”
"Brother Bo, you said lightly. When the old man asked for someone from you, and you blocked it in every possible way, why didn't you say it, the old man gave up his face, so he recruited a group of teachers who carried Jinling Academy, and pulled them into the door with the front foot of a certain good talk. You gave me a salary from the bottom of the kettle, and forcibly pulled a batch from my academy, you still mean to say! ”
Zheng Xuan blew his beard and glared, and almost Cai Yong, who didn't have a finger to point at, to question.
"I will ask you, when you established the shelf of Jinling Academy. Is there a part of a certain family? Cai Yong's face flushed slightly, annoyed and angry, and asked directly.
"The old man does not deny this......"
When Zheng Xuan heard this, he nodded subconsciously, but before he finished speaking, he was forcibly interrupted.
"Okay, it's good if you don't deny it, since it's a favor you owe, shouldn't you pay it back?" After all, Cai Yong has more experience in the sea than Zheng Xuan, and he is very slippery, grasping the main point, and not letting go.
"Cai Bojiao, you are a strong word!" Zheng Xuan's old face was a little unbearable.
Looking at the two old men who were highly respected in the eyes of the scholars of Wu Guo, now they have no image, and their ruthless words are like blades, you and you are fighting back and forth, Sun Quan is sitting next to him, sweating profusely.
He didn't even dare to get out of the atmosphere, for fear that the two old men would feel that there was another person beside him and burn the fire on his head, and it would be him who was miserable.
"It's not strong words, it's reasonable!" Cai Yong said leisurely.
"Brother Bo, why are you staring at Jinling Academy, you should go to Gu Hong and Lu Kang, Liaodong Academy and Jiaozhou Academy are also prosperous academies now, and there are not a few teachers among them!" Zheng Xuan said helplessly.
"Don't worry, none of you can escape!" Cai Yong said with a smile: "The household department has already allocated funds, and the big education plan can be carried out with teachers, so you all have to be people!" ”
"Old man, no one!"
Zheng Xuan bit to death and didn't let go.
"Brother Kang Cheng, in short, if you can't see anyone in a certain family today, you won't give up!" Cai Yong took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, then looked at Zheng Xuan, and said obviously a little scoundrelly: "Establish dozens of academies, just one Jiangdong Academy, how many teachers are not enough, you must at least give a certain family fifty senior teachers, otherwise so-and-so will not leave!" ”
"Brother Bo, if you want to say that we have known each other for some years, why doesn't the old man know that you are such a scoundrel!" When Zheng Xuan heard this, he felt that his three views were completely ruined, and he smiled slightly bitterly, and his expression was a little speechless.
"Brother Kang Cheng, you are the elder brother of a certain family, and a certain family is responsible for such a large teaching project, you must always contribute!" Cai Yong said softly.
"Fifty no, the maximum twenty teachers!"
Zheng Xuan was helpless, if he didn't give someone today, Cai Yong would definitely not give up, and could only bargain.
"Forty-five!" Cai Yong squinted slightly.
"Thirty, is there too much!" Zheng Xuan cut the way categorically.
"Forty, without this number, a certain will definitely not stop there!" Cai Yong is also very persistent.
"Thirty-five, this is the bottom line of the old man, it is already to give you the face of this old thing, if you don't want it, get out of the old man immediately!" Zheng Xuan directly slapped the table and turned his face, and became ruthless.
"Deal!"
Cai Yong's eyes lit up, he stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you Brother Kang Cheng for your support!" (To be continued......)
