Shi Bufan quickly came up with a way to rent books, which is actually to open a library, by putting books in the library for everyone to read and learn by themselves, so that they can pay a very small part of the borrowing fee, and then use this borrowing fee to maintain those books, and not for the purpose of making a profit, and the capital can be guaranteed. In this case, it can ensure that the vast majority of people learn on their own, although the conditions are certainly worse than those who have been tutored by famous teachers, but in this situation of casting a wide net, it is completely possible that there will always be some days to emerge.

As a senior lecturer at a later university, Shi Bufan naturally knew the benefits of cultural popularization. The popularization of culture helps to promote the mobility of social classes, promote the flow between classes, and maintain social stability. If the class is seriously solidified, then the lower class will not have the opportunity to rise, and the upper class will always be solidified in a small number of families, and then there will definitely be problems in the state. Although the later imperial examination system was reviled by many people, it led to the movement of social classes, and the imperial examination system can almost be said to be the fifth greatest invention in China and was used by various countries.

However, at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, although the imperial examination system was implemented, most of the people who were admitted to the imperial examination were scholars. Because ordinary people did not have the opportunity to study, their education level was still lower than that of the scholars. Through hundreds of years of economic accumulation, the scholars have given them a sufficient collection of books, and hundreds of years of book collection and economic accumulation can allow their descendants to learn cultural and reading without worry, and finally do not have to waste time to make a living. Then their only need is to study knowledge, and then strive to become officials.

However, because of the high cost of books, ordinary people cannot have the opportunity to read, let alone learn culture, and finally cannot go to the upper echelons of society. The most important competition for human beings is brain, wisdom, not the so-called brutal power.

"That's right! Why didn't anyone think of such a borrowed book before? If you can lend books, then the majority of poor children can also have the opportunity to study, and there is no need to worry about not being able to learn culture. But why didn't anyone have this idea before, and why were many people who had countless books unwilling to take it out? It's a big deal to charge some maintenance fees, even if it's a small profit. And in this way, everyone in the world can have the opportunity to study, isn't that great? Qin Jiarui said.

However, Dugu Daxue shook her head and said, "Sister Jiarui, it's not that simple. I'm afraid, not to mention whether anyone can think of it, and even if it does, those scholars will not be willing to take out these books for lending. ”

Shi Bufan nodded, this Dugu Daxue's political ability is obviously much stronger than Qin Jiarui, because Dugu Daxue is also from a not very prominent scholar family, although it has declined, but the inheritance of many years is not fake, and he can naturally understand the thinking of the scholars.

Shi Bufan knew that in ancient times, this was based on the family, and everything was considered for the family, the social structure was composed of the family, and the competition for social resources was not based on the individual or family, but on the family. Therefore, first of all, in terms of social structure, they will not have too many "public welfare" ideas, and they naturally do not want to take it out, but share it with members of their own family. In such a situation, those scholars who have a large collection of books will naturally not be willing to take out the books, because they naturally do not want those poor families to have too much culture. They wish that books would be expensive, so that they could further suppress the rise of the poor and prevent them from having enough wealth to learn culture. In fact, this method of public library may not be imagined by ordinary people, because this social structure is different, which causes different human thinking. Of course, even if a small number of people think of it, those who have a very large collection of books are not willing to share them with those who have a culture to steal their own interests.

So different people have different ideas from different eras. Shi Bufan was born in the social structure of later generations, so it is natural that he can easily think of this aspect. Moreover, as a teacher, he naturally has no scruples about popularizing culture, but supports popularizing culture, which is also a matter of position. What's more, the current popularization of culture is beneficial to the times, is conducive to the establishment of his own ideological and moral system, and is also conducive to the development of his career, so that he is keen on the needs of popularizing culture.

As a university lecturer in later generations, Shi Bufan knew very well that many students did not know what to do with the books of the past after graduation. Many of those textbooks have been thrown away somewhere, and have even been sold for scrap. After a student has learned the knowledge, the use of those materials is at best memorial. But when a student grows up, do so many books be used as a souvenir? The so-called way of circulating textbooks is also inappropriate, and it is difficult for the seniors' textbooks to be passed on to the next generation. There are a lot of things in this, and those interest groups are influencing the textbook, and there are also many students who are not enthusiastic about this circulating textbook. In particular, the cheapness of books and paper in later generations made everyone not cherish these books very much.

But in ancient times, paper was extremely expensive, and it was not easy for ordinary people to obtain books. So if someone can open a library, it will definitely attract a lot of people. It only costs a small amount of borrowing money, so they can read books almost casually, which has many benefits for them. They're going to come over, and those so-called borrowing fees can be used as the cost of maintaining and repairing the books, so the cost is much lower. And although they don't have the so-called ownership of books, they can learn the knowledge and culture in books. In the end, books are just a pile of paper, they are only used as a carrier of culture, not real culture. As long as the human brain remembers that knowledge, it doesn't matter if there are books or not.

"It's better to buy than to rent, this is the so-called practice of buying is better than renting. Qin Jiarui, when you do business in the future, you can consider the comprehensive cost more. If you don't use it for a long time and it's not the lifeblood of your property, you can consider renting it to save you a lot. Of course, if it is really related to the lifeblood and safety of your own industry, you must definitely own it, not rent, let alone buy, you must control it yourself. It's like talking about the tea fields in Gangnam Province, even more so. You did a good job this time, tea is one of our most important sources of wealth, so the land suitable for growing tea should be mastered as much as possible, and don't let others rob it. But for other things, such as the transportation process of tea leaves, you can entrust it to others, and don't keep a transport team yourself. Shi Bufan said.

Qin Jiarui nodded and said, "It seems that my husband is really good at business, and it seems that I still have to learn from my husband in the future!" ”

However, Dugu Daxue immediately asked: "Who are you going to hand over the newspaper and this library to do?" The person who does this must first be able to trust, but he must also be bold, otherwise in the face of the blows of so many scholars, maybe they will not be able to bear it. ”

"Of course, the person who does this must be bold, careful, and thick-skinned, and must have the means and courage, such a person is not easy to find!" Shi Bufan replied.

"Knock knock, Shixiao Shulang, the four students Ren Yaxiang and Xin Mao will ask to see you!" There was a knock at the door.

"Ren Yaxiang, General Xin Mao, hey, really said Cao Cao Cao, aren't these two more suitable candidates?" Shi Bufan muttered.

Soon, Ren Yaxiang and Xin Mao walked in one after another, and then they came to Shi Bufan, and quickly knelt down and said, "Student Ren Yaxiang (Xin Maojiang) to meet the teacher!" ”

Dugu Daxue and Qin Jiarui were also confused, why did these two guys just come in and immediately kneel down to apprentice? And these two students, almost all of them are the same age as Shi Bufan, why did they want to apprentice in turn? This is simply unthinkable, Dugu Daxue and Qin Jiarui were also surprised.

"Oh? Do you want to apprentice? Shi Bufan asked.

Shi Bufan obviously didn't expect that as soon as these two guys came in, they all knelt down immediately to apprentice, which obviously deliberately caused the so-called "established facts", which made Shi Bufan embarrassed not to accept them. These two guys can really be cheeky and actually be students for themselves?

Ren Yaxiang first said: "Shi Xiao Shulang, I heard that Shi Xiao Shulang was able to talk about the high level of Guozijian during the day today, and Xin Mao and I were suddenly like a mouthball, and we were so excited that we couldn't get more excited. Shixiao Shulang is a rare talent, and we are willing to learn from Shixiao Shulang. Shi Xiao Shulang can be honored by Master Confucius as a junior brother, which shows that Shi Xiao Shulang's great talent has been recognized by the Kong family. And we hurried to come here to apprentice, just hoping that Shi Xiao Shulang can be a disciple of us, and we can follow Shi Xiao Shulang to study hard, and truly learn the knowledge of the world! ”

General Xin Mao also said: "Although we are a few months older than Shi Xiao Shulang, we think that what Shi Xiao Shulang said is good, and there is no one who has learned to be a teacher." The saints have also said that they are not ashamed to ask! Shi Xiao Shulang is highly educated, we are willing to follow Shi Xiao Shulang to study, and then be able to serve by our side, and we will not hesitate to be a child who serves tea and pours water! ”

"Hey, you're so thick-skinned! Don't think I don't know what you two guys are thinking, I'm afraid it's fake that you are studying with me, but you have taken a fancy to my academic background. Today I just got Kong Yingda honored as a junior brother, so I haven't opened the door to accept apprentices, you two hurriedly came to apprenticeship, I think it's fake to learn knowledge, it's just that I fancy my reputation in the academic world. We are all thousand-year-old foxes, what are you playing with me and chatting! However, you two guys are thick-skinned enough to kneel down and apprentice as soon as you enter the door, and such a goddamn cheekiness is so promising! Shi Bufan thought to himself.

If it was an ordinary person, seeing Ren Yaxiang and Xin Mao, these two "thick-skinned" guys, had just come in, and immediately rushed to apprentice regardless of their identity, and even regardless of Shi Bufan's age being a few months younger than them, they also showed their faces to apprentice, and they did not hesitate. Shi Bufan knew what they thought, but in fact, the so-called learning was fake, and they valued their status in the academic world.

His Shi Bufan and them are the same idea, Shi Bufan used his so-called "Xinxue" and "Fa Confucianism" to throw it out, isn't it just hoping to gain a high status in the academic circles of the Tang Dynasty? As a result, he succeeded and won the recognition of Kong Yingda and Yan Shigu, and Kong Yingda also respectfully called him a junior brother, so that he could be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in the Datang academic circles.

But this Ren Yaxiang and Xin Mao are really thick-skinned guys, and they came to apprentice directly that night, and hurriedly apprenticed, so that they could take advantage of Shi Bufan's status in the academic world in the future. When many graduate students choose tutors, they choose those who have a wide social network and a high rank in the academic circle, and this kind of tutor and professor are the most popular candidates. Those who really know how to choose these two kinds of things, unless they really plan to engage in academic research for the rest of their lives, will choose those who are profound. Otherwise, most of them choose mentors with connections, or people with high seniority in the industry circle, which will be of great benefit to their future career development.

Even some of the smarter ones choose mentors who have been high-ranking officials among their students. If there is a high-ranking official among a professor's students, a large number of people will follow him to rush to apprentice, and he will be a brother to the high-ranking officials in the future, which will be of great help to his own society.

"Hehe, both of them are young talents of my Datang, and they will definitely have a very promising future in the future. In fact, we can communicate with each other as equals, so why bother? Shi Bufan said a little "fakely".

But Ren Yaxiang and Xin Mao immediately knelt down and said, "Shixiao Shulang, if you don't accept us, then we won't get up!" If you don't accept us, we'll die here on our knees! ”

"The two guys talk so neatly, if you say you didn't rehearse it beforehand, I'll let the author eat the keyboard!" Shi Bufan scolded in his heart.

However, Shi Bufan still said: "For the sake of your sincerity, I will also accept you." ”

"Student Ren Yaxiang (Xin Maojiang) visited the master, I wish the master a long life and good health!" The two of them said in unison again.

And the two women next to Shi Bufan were also shocked, they actually determined the relationship between the master and the apprentice so quickly?
