Chapter 90 Bursary Fund
"Vivian, this kid doesn't seem to be pestering you for a day or two, right?" Seeing Enrique and the three flee in disgrace, Xu Yi turned around and frowned and asked Vivian.
The reason why he appeared at Baron Ricto's Academy of Magic today was that in addition to teaching a basic lesson in the theory of magic mechanics, there were some important things to do.
Who knew that when I walked to the campus after class, I saw Vivien talking to three young boys from a distance.
At first, Xu Yi thought that the three boys were Vivian's classmates, and he was happy that Vivian had made friends in such a short time, and even guessed whether there was Vivian's suitor among them, but after a while, he suddenly saw one of the boys grabbing Vivian and pulling her outside the school gate.
Although Vivien did not call for help, her expression and movements revealed incomparable resistance.
How can Xu Yi endure this, Vivian has lived with him for many months, and he has long regarded Vivian as a family member, so without saying a word, he directly smashed Enrique into the air with a fireball, and he didn't give him a chance to defend himself.
However, Enrique is actually the son of Fuller Morgan, the president of the Falcao Chamber of Commerce, which is quite unexpected.
Because the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has joined the Chamber of Commerce, the relationship between the Falcao Chamber of Commerce and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is now in the honeymoon period, and the relationship between Xu Yi and Fuller Morgan is still getting along well for the time being, if President Morgan knows that Xu Yi actually taught his son a lesson, although he should not blame Xu Yi for this, but there will still be some embarrassment between the two parties.
"Hmm. Hearing Xu Yi's question, Vivian lowered her head and responded.
"Then why didn't you sue me earlier?" Xu Yi grabbed Vivian's arm that was held by Enrique just now and took a look, and found that her arm had been pinched out with a circle of bruises, which showed how hard Enrique had used his hand just now. "What if that kid does something if I'm not here today?"
Vivien hung her head for a moment before whispering, "I...... I'm afraid you're worried, master. β
Xu Yi sighed and touched her head: "Stupid, if something really happens, I'm worried that it's too late." Next time you encounter something like this, you must sue me, understand?"
Vivien nodded lightly and mumbled.
Xu Yi suddenly laughed again: "Then again, Vivian, you have made progress." β
"Huh?" Vivien looked up at Xu Yi, unsure why.
"You are afraid that I will worry about you, which proves that you have regarded me as a family member in your heart, and you know that I will be worried. Not bad, not bad. It seems that it was the right thing to send you to school here, and in less than two months, you have grown a lot. Xu Yi said with a smile.
Looking at the smile on Xu Yi's face, the only trace of fear left in Wei Wei's peace of mind also disappeared, and Chong Xu Yi showed a sweet smile, and her little face was slightly red.
"That's it, if this kind of thing happens today, you go and ask the teacher for a leave, don't go to class today, go home and rest first. If I'll come back in the evening, we'll go out and find a place to eat. What do you think?"
To Xu Yi's surprise, Vivian shook her head when she heard his mention.
"No, I'm fine. I still want to...... I want to stay in the academy for a while, and it would be good to study a little more. Vivian looked at Xu Yidao with a hint of expectation.
"Oh, you're so interested in learning?" Xu Yi sighed, thought for a moment, and agreed to Vivien's request.
After Enrique knew his name just now, he must not have dared to trouble Vivien again.
It's really not possible, Xu Yi can also ask Director Shearer to help take care of Vivien more, after all, Baron Ricto's School of Magic has received so many gold coins from Xu Yi, so it has to be a little discounted.
After asking a few more questions about Vivian's study, Vivian proposed that the painting class was about to start, so she said goodbye to Xu Yi and left.
Xu Yi came to the Academic Affairs Office again to meet with Director Shearer.
This time, Xu Yi came to Baron Rictor's Academy of Magic, in addition to opening a basic course on the theory of magic and machinery, another important thing to do was to sign an agreement with Baron Rictor's Academy of Magic again.
In between teaching the basic course of magical machinery theory, some students of Baron Rictor's School of Magic, including Ou Lin, privately told Xu Yi that they were very interested in magical mechanics, and after they graduated from the academy, they wanted to join the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to continue their research on magical machinery.
Xu Yi naturally welcomed this, and the reason why he spent a lot of money to hold a basic course on the theory of magic machinery in Baron Rictor's magic academy was to arouse the interest of the students in the academy who studied magic, and strive to make them devote themselves to the study of magic machinery.
Although Xu also has a deep knowledge of mechanical theory that has been studied on Earth, the theory of magical machinery is also a new topic for him.
It is impossible for him alone to study this theory thoroughly, and it is necessary to have a large number of magicians involved and integrate the power of more people in order to create a complete theory of magical machinery faster and better.
Although more than a dozen students have expressed their intentions in this regard, Xu Yi still felt that it was too little, and after careful consideration, he simply talked in detail with Director Shearer, who represented the official of Baron Rictor's Academy of Magic, and decided to set up a bursary fund in the name of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the academy.
There are two kinds of bursary funds, one is for children from poor families in the college, as long as they apply, and then after verification, they can get the bursary fund of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to help them pay part of the tuition and living expenses.
The other is specifically facing the Magic Branch, and the amount of funds is higher than the previous one, and the requirements are also high.
Students in the Magical Branch who have received the second type of bursary can receive full funding from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce during their time at the Academy, which not only includes full tuition and living expenses, but also includes a part of additional financial support, so that the student can obtain better conditions for studying magic.
Correspondingly, students who receive the second type of bursary must become an employee of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce after graduating from the academy for a minimum period of three years.
As for what this student wants to do in three years, there will be no restrictions on what the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will do.
After hearing Xu Yi's mention of the bursary fund, Director Shearer could be described as a mixed bag.
The good news is that if the bursary fund promised by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce becomes a reality, it means that many students in the college who are unable to continue their studies due to their family circumstances may rely on this bursary fund to continue their studies in the college.
It's a good thing for both those kids and for Baron Ricto's Academy of Magic.
The worry is that in this way, the students of Baron Ricto's Academy of Magic will inevitably have a great sense of identity with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
In particular, the students of the Magic Branch who have successfully applied for the second type of bursary fund, regardless of their own wishes, must go to work in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for three years after graduation, so it is indirectly equivalent to Baron Ricto's School of Magic training a group of magicians for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Director Shearer himself is a veteran magician, and he has always believed that the most important thing as a magician is to improve his magical strength and strive to become stronger.
And the application of magic, especially the magic machinery of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, is just some crooked ways, and it is not enough to become the right path for magicians.
If it weren't for Xu Yi's funding that he couldn't refuse, he wouldn't even agree to Xu Yilai to teach the basic course of magic machine theory.
Director Shearer's worries were finally repelled by Xu Yi's words.
"The bursary fund is completely voluntary, and our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will never force students to accept, nor will the college force them to accept, so in fact, it is no different from before, but it can also give students a choice. What's more, if those students don't even have the financial resources to support their own studies, then even if they don't accept our bursary fund, they will only end up being unable to go down the path of magicians. Which outcome do you think is better for those children?"
Director Shearer was persuaded by the facts Xu Yi said, so he also went to convince the other academy leaders himself, and finally facilitated Baron Ricktor's Academy of Magic and Xu Yi to reach this agreement.
Xu Yi came today to sign this agreement.
The negotiation process had already ended before, and after Xu Yi met with Director Shearer, he met with the dean again, and then signed an agreement on behalf of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Baron Ricktor's Academy of Magic.
There were no accidents in the whole process, and the only disharmony was probably the wry smile that Director Shearer showed after looking at the agreement that had been signed.
"President Xu, if our college had enough financial support, I would never let those children embark on this path. β
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Director Shearer, perhaps you now think that engaging in the research of magic machinery is an evil path, not the right path. But I believe that it won't be long before you realize that combining magic and mechanics to make magic successfully serve humanity and improve people's lives is the real way to go. At that time, these students who have walked out of the academy and entered our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to study magic machinery will definitely create zΓ o far beyond the value of their zΓ o as a traditional magician. β
Director Shearer glanced at Xu Yi and sighed lightly: "I hope so." β

PS2: I saw a lot of people questioning the protagonist's handover technology, what about this...... Please note that there is an arrangement behind the main character. Handing over technology does not necessarily mean that you lose money, but can bring greater benefits, and I think this truth should be easy to understand.
Of course, there must be problems with this book, and I hope you can find out and raise them, but I don't want to be abused, and I hope you can be a little more patient, thank you~
