Chapter 153: Ten Years of Trees and One Hundred Years of Cultivating People

As a result, in the whole of Mengxi, there are many shops, and many traders are pouring in, but the land is Qin Shaoyou's, so that this relies on the rent of the Qin family Zhuangzi here, but Qin Shaoyou makes a lot of money.

There is nothing more pleasant in the world than sitting on the floor and receiving money. It's a pity that the charter man has it, but the charter wife doesn't.

It's just that there are countless people in the world who want to be a charter wife, such as Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping, who is already salivating.

She rushed over almost angrily, looking extremely dissatisfied with Qin Shaoyou.

"Your Royal Highness, but I don't know what's wrong?" Qin Shaoyou was really helpless against this perverse princess of Taiping.

Li Lingyue looked at him coldly and said, "This palace only asks you, you want to build a road, this road ...... Who helped you fix it? ”

Qin Shaoyou hurriedly said: "Naturally, it's Wu Shangshu?" ”

Li Lingyue had expected that Qin Shaoyou was so heartless, so she narrowed her eyes: "Really? Are you familiar with Wu Shangshu? ”

"It's fine!"

Li Lingyue couldn't help but say: "What's okay, there is no palace to strategize, who built the road for you, you really crossed the river and demolished the bridge, fell into the well, and now the road is repaired, it is also lively here, you have earned a lot of money." ”

Qin Shaoyou sighed and said, "Actually, His Highness didn't earn less. ”

Li Lingyue said loudly: "This is not what the palace is talking about now, now there are so many vendors, you sit on the land to collect rent, but why do you divide your fief into a bazaar, the land of the palace is clearly close at hand, why don't you allow merchants to go, Qin Shaoyou, you are so favoritism, it really makes the palace blind." ”

Originally...... It's for the sake of the land, Qin Shaoyou is embarrassed, no wonder he made such a big detour.

Qin Shaoyou said: "Now our land is every inch of land, what does it mean to favor one over the other, His Royal Highness is serious." ”

"Or not?"

Qin Shaoyou shook his head and sighed: "Actually, it is a better use to leave His Highness's piece of land. ”

Li Lingyue pinned her face to the side and said, "You can't make money!" ”

Qin Shaoyou is really speechless, since he brought Li Lingyue into the business circle. Her Royal Highness the princess is really getting more and more philistine, and everyone is losing money.

Qin Shaoyou said: "I have a big thing to accumulate merit. ”

When Li Lingyue heard the word merit, she immediately became angry and said, "Merit...... Hongu is merit, and Hongu used to pray for the blessing of his grandmother. Becoming a monk and being a Taoist priest, isn't this a merit? Now that the merits of this palace have long been cultivated, now it is necessary to save money, save a lot of money, and buy a lot of things. As soon as I heard the word merit, the heart of this palace was cold, and you were allowed to come to earn money, but you actually instigated this palace to make merit, Qin Shaoyou, what kind of heart are you! ”

Qin Shaoyou smiled and said, "Your Highness is angry, who said that you can't make money by making merits?" ”

Li Lingyue finally sighed, and said with resentment: "No matter how you look at this palace, it looks like you are fooling this palace, okay, you can say it." What merit is to be made? ”

Qin Shaoyou said categorically: "Run a school." ”

Li Lingyue said suddenly: "Running a school? What does a school do? Didn't the imperial court have six learnings? Qin Shaoyou. You're really confused, aren't you now unable to be a scholar, so you want to start a school and relive the addiction of a scholar? ”

Facing Li Lingyue's 'misunderstanding', Qin Shaoyou felt a little sad, and he smiled bitterly: "Your Highness is angry, this school I want to run is different from other schools, Your Highness, do you think this Meng Jin is good?" ”

"Okay."

"That's it, Meng Jin is now the cornucopia of His Highness and me. Your Highness, think about it, there are so many industries here, and they will only get better and better in the future, and there will be a lot of cars and horses here when the time comes. Our tea, silk, and oil have to be sent from here, through Mengjin Port, to all parts of Henan and Hebei, and to Luoyang, but ...... The lower officials want to ask, what are we most lacking now? ”

"Money!"

"Heh......" Qin Shaoyou sneered before he said, "Your Highness is a nobleman of heaven." Can you not always mention that kind of blockage, let's talk about something noble. ”

Seeing Qin Shaoyou's depressed look, Li Lingyue couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, you say." ”

Qin Shaoyou straightened his face and said solemnly: "What we lack the most is ...... Person. ”

"People ......" Li Lingyue couldn't help but say: "There are 15,000 food households in the unity camp, this population is as many as 40,000 or 50,000, nearly 20,000 strong men, and there are many women and children. ”

Qin Shaoyou shook his head and said: "What Xia Guan said is talented people, in the future, we will make this place bigger, will we still rely on a group of illiterate people to maintain our workshops and fields?" Today we can spin yarn, tomorrow others can, today we can squeeze oil, sooner or later, others will also squeeze oil, we can make ice, but who can guarantee this craft, how long can we hide it? Now we can have this huge profit, just because we have the opportunity, one step faster than others, but today's one step faster, does not mean that we will always be faster than others, therefore, what we have to do is to maintain our own advantages, how to maintain advantages? The same is spinning silk, the same ice making, the same tea making, the only thing we do is to be better than others. ”

Li Lingyue frowned and said, "What does this have to do with running a school?" ”

Li Lingyue was finally moved, she was actually an extremely smart person, and many things could be understood by Qin Shaoyou.

Qin Shaoyou said: "Because the school we run is to make our skills more exquisite. We are not an official school, what to teach, it's not up to us to decide, I've already thought about it, how about this school is called Taiping Learning? ”

Taiping ......

Li Lingyue's face softened a little, and said, "What else?" ”

Qin Shaoyou held his chin and said: "Mengxue must be there for those young children to study, and the older ones can learn arithmetic, medicine, calligraphy and painting, ironmaking, and spinning...... Cooking ......"

"Wait!" Li Lingyue's beautiful eyes widened: "This ...... What the hell is this, except for arithmetic, calligraphy and painting, and medicine, everything else is the next nine ......"

Qin Shaoyou said seriously: "But this thing comes with money, Your Highness, if you study in this school, it is impossible for the imperial court to give them officials, will Your Highness let them study the scriptures and history?" The most important thing is to let them learn the arts, so that they can directly become blacksmiths, bookkeepers, and ......cooks when they come out in the future."

Li Lingyue couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Qin Shaoyou, you are really crazy, cough cough...... This palace came to ask you, such a knowledge, serious people are not willing to come, who wants their children to do these inferior things. ”

Qin Shaoyou said: "Your Highness is wrong again, the lower officials don't expect any high-ranking families and children of wealthy families to study, and it was originally prepared for ordinary people." ”

Li Lingyue gritted her silver teeth and said, "What books do they read, even if they read, do they have money?" If you don't have money, do you still want the palace to make up for it? Qin Shaoyou...... You're beating me up again. ”

Qin Shaoyou's body was shocked, and he said in his heart, Your Highness, I don't dare to fight your idea, even if you want to fight, Shangguan Wan'er is not bad, the humanities are quieter, and ...... She doesn't die for money.

Qin Shaoyou patiently explained: "The eaters are rich, didn't they just get paid? Anyway, they are usually thrifty, in addition to food, clothing, housing and transportation, most of the extra money has to be saved, but what we have to do is to take out their last copper plate, for this matter, I have not slept well for several nights, and finally came up with a solution. ”

"You say."

Qin Shaoyou said: "This hand is called the bottom of the kettle, first of all, we have to set the rules, all the children of the household, under the age of eighteen, are not allowed to come out to work, they are no longer growing grain, the children are young, staying at home is also idle, annoying, can't earn a money, even if it is at home to help with the farm work, I am afraid that it will not be enough, but there is an extra burden." ”

"Secondly, there is another rule, but all those who have dropped out of Taiping School and have experienced three years of Mongolian education, working in Mengjin, their salary can be increased by one percent, and if they have experienced another two years of college, their wages can be increased by another one percent."

"Your Highness, think about it, these people can't help much at home, let alone make money, and they are idle. On the other hand, if you study in school for five years, these five years, as long as you drop out, the salary will be more than others, ordinary people are only two or three times a year, but they have three or four or even four or five runs, and so on in the future, the business will become bigger, to promote the foreman, these people can also give priority, this year, two years naturally do not see the advantage, but ten or twenty years? Reading is not always a bad thing for them, it can make their lives better, can they not be tempted? This has always been whether it is a prince or a general, or a peddler and pawn, they all understand a truth, that is, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, even if they leave thousands of family wealth to their children, but if it is not successful, sooner or later there will be a time when they will be defeated, you can let him learn a craft, you think about it, whether they are when they reach the age, that is, to marry a daughter-in-law, it is easier than others. ”

"Of course, the tuition fee for this admission must not be less, at least five hundred yuan a year, this price, ordinary people can actually afford it, save a little and come, we not only do not post money, but make money, and when they learn the ability, they can also use it for us in the future, isn't it the best of both worlds?"

Li Lingyue calculated quickly, and then her eyes suddenly lit up: "There is a little truth." ”

Qin Shaoyou said with a smile on his face: "Actually, if such a thing is made elsewhere, it is guaranteed that no one cares, but this is Mengjin, which is different from other places." Your Highness, let's do it together, two and one will add five, and the capital will be paid together, as for teaching, I am afraid that His Highness will have to come forward. ”
