Chapter 229: Free Learning

"There should be a disproportionate amount of input and output." Tang Mian naturally took over the words.

Boss Sun saw that she knew the truth, and plucked up the courage to continue, "Boss Tang, your early investment in this academy will be at least a few hundred taels of silver, the students are all children of poor families, and you can afford it for a few years, the old man has been similar to you for so long, I can't bear to see you go on like this." ”

At this time, Boss Sun expressed his opinion, he analyzed so much, he just wanted Tang Mian to stop quickly.

Tang Mian shook his head, "Boss Sun, I've been thinking about building the academy for a long time, I can accumulate the family business now, all from scratch, and it's also thanks to my mother's literacy, I can learn pharmacology knowledge by myself and earn the first pot of gold......"

As soon as she opened her mouth, she couldn't stop, and added a few sentences after she finished: "Boss Sun, the academy will definitely lose a lot of money in the early stage, but after five years, I am confident that the academy will become the number one in the world!" ”

Boss Sun saw that Tang Mian couldn't listen, so he didn't persuade him again, but heard that she wanted to order the children's clothes, bed sheets and bedding, so he said that he was willing to sell them to her at a 5% discount......

"Mian, isn't that Boss Sun of Lin Xiufang?" Bai Yunniang stewed some millet porridge and brought it to Tang Mian, and as soon as she came from the left, she saw Boss Sun leaving.

"Hmm." Tang Mian nodded, her heart was a little touched.

When she first got along with Boss Sun, she obviously felt that he was too utilitarian. He only recognizes money and not people, but he didn't expect that he was willing to sell her those things at such a low price.

In recent days, the mouths of the people in the imperial city have been full of free enrollment of Tang Mian's academy.

As long as you meet the corresponding conditions, you can enter the college to study for free for two years.

"I heard that the academy not only has masters who have been hired a lot of money, but also leaders from all walks of life."

"I also heard that if I go to their academy, I can read and write, and I can also learn martial arts, medicine, ironsmithing, cooking, and ...... according to my needs."

"Hey! If it weren't for the fact that my boy was only three years old, I would have sent him to the academy to sign up. Not to mention the food and accommodation of the academy, after two years, they will be assigned to work everywhere according to their study situation, and the monthly income of Boss Tang's family is the highest in the entire imperial city. ”

……

Gong Weishu was walking on the street, and all he heard along the way was about Tang Mian's academy.

His brow furrowed.

He was a businessman and knew that running a college was a thankless task.

What does Mian really think?

Previously, he spent more than five million taels of silver for Qiao Sheng.

Now that I am in the academy, it is estimated that I will always be subsidizing money.

"Master, tables, chairs, benches, various farm tools, books, pots and pans have been ordered according to your orders, but—" Xiao Cui paused for a few seconds, a little unspeakable.

"Is there something wrong? There is a question to say! ”

"Master, it's only been half a month, and our early investment is already almost one million taels of silver, if this continues, it is estimated that it will exceed this number in the end!" It was also after Xiao Cui helped Shrimp count the cost of building the academy just now that she was frightened.

Now there are 289 craftsmen in the academy, and the average daily expenditure is more than 50 taels of silver, according to the master's explanation, they must ensure that they have three meals a day, and must also have two meat dishes, and recently the food fee has risen directly to 70 taels of silver a day.

Counting the salary expenses, it is almost a hundred and twenty a day.

Add to that what you ordered, and it's really like a bottomless pit.

"Xiaocui, you go to the account room to pay some money." Tang Mian is very satisfied with everything so far.

She must dare to make herself poor before the emperor dies.

She's been buying a lot lately, so why did she use up so much money.

Seeing that she hadn't reacted yet, Xiao Cui boldly mentioned, "Master, the person in the account room said that at present, there are only 100,000 taels of silver left on our books, and we must keep it as a backup fund for chewing incense." ”

Oh! It turned out that there was no money.

Tang Mian got up and walked to the bookshelf, took out a book, opened it, and took out a few redemption tickets and his own private seal.

"This is the silver I saved in the Bian family's bank, you take it all out, the academy is bothered."

After taking it, Xiaocui was frightened when she saw the number on the redemption ticket.

Two million taels of silver!

When did the master save so much money?

"Isn't it enough, you wait!" Tang Mian got up and returned to the bookshelf, this time drawing out the silver ticket of another bank.

After a bunch, there are about a million taels of silver.

"Isn't that enough? I still have! Seeing that Tang Mian still wanted to get it, Xiaocui hurriedly waved her hand, "Enough, enough!" ”

After going out, she looked at the amount of silver in her hand.

sighed that the master has a big heart, why has it been so long, and he still likes to put all the silver tickets in the study.

Half a month later, the college was half-built.

Tang Mian received news from Zhongyi Hall that the children selected from all over the country would arrive in the imperial city one after another recently.

Thousands of sets of bed sheets and bedding custom-made by Mr. Sun were also delivered.

She went to the college and saw that the dormitory had been built.

It was called Xiami to announce the day of enrollment.

According to Tang Mian's standard, the age must be between eight and fifteen years old, the family is poor, and you can sign up if you are self-motivated.

However, they have to go through the first round of screening – an in-person interview.

Since there were more people coming this time, Tang Mian called the mouth to close and let all the guys come to serve as interviewers.

When the list of 300 people was announced three days later, the people who came to see the list directly blocked East Street.

"Why don't you go?" Prime Minister Xu asked a few friends to drink tea today, but he was delayed by some things before he came out.

The coachman outside the carriage was also flustered.

In the end, something big happened on East Street, and the road in front of it was surrounded by people.

"Master, it's Koukouxiang who announced the list of selected academies......"

College? He'd just heard about it.

That is, a rich master like Tang Mian burns money so much.

No matter how talented a child from a poor family is, if he can't be a man, he will end up being just a wild man.

Seeing that the hour was not early, he asked the guards to get into the carriage and told the coachman to make a detour.

"Master! My hands are about to break! After the shrimp finished speaking, Xiao Cui hurriedly nodded.

I'm so tired!

Relatives and friends of 500 children rushed up and almost scared her to death.

If you know it, you will listen to your master, let them go home first, and they will inform them one by one.

Her throat still burns.

Tang Mian saw that they were stunned on the first day, and opened his mouth to cheer them up.

He also said that he would assign them a house to live in the day after tomorrow or something.

Recently, the academy has not been built, so for the time being, they will teach the children first.

"Isn't it! Master, just let me go! I've been squeezing so many accounts lately, I can't do it! Shrimp shouted at the top of her voice, her face full of helplessness.

Tang Mian threw him a self-inflicted expression.

Looks like a little green.

"Master, don't you want me to teach the children too! I can't! Xiao Cui understood Tang Mian's intentions, and bounced directly on the bench, she swung her hand vigorously and slammed her head against it. The whole body resisted it.

Before she was bought by Tang Mian, she didn't know a single big word.

Now I recognize all the words, but the writing is very poor.
