Chapter 299: Iron Rooster
Ma Shen smashed the imperial plaque angrily, was deprived of his fame, sent back to his hometown, and after the prisoners were warned to besiege the palace gate, perhaps because he felt the absolute will of the Son of Heaven, he did not dare to continue the confrontation after all.
A new plaque was hung on the front of Yenching University, and the construction of the university was still in full swing, and the first batch of students was soon welcomed.
What shocked Shilin the most was not anything else, but no one expected that the sacrificial wine of Yenching University would be the champion of Zhengde for six years, the son of the current Shoufu, the famous Yang Shen!
Yang Shen was promoted by the emperor to be a fourth-grade sacrificial wine, although it also caused dissatisfaction in the officialdom, but the voice of doubt and criticism was not too big.
The reason is very simple, Yang Shen is the champion, as long as he has qualifications, he will one day become the important minister of the Ming Dynasty, and now the lack of qualifications is true, but so what?
Except for the official who has nothing to do, who will be idle and can't get along with the future important ministers or even auxiliary ministers?
What's more, the father of the family is Yang Tinghe, the first assistant, even if Yang Tinghe, who is the first assistant, does not form a party, but there are fewer students outside the court, in the same year, and there are not a few people who are the first assistant and the first assistant in the court, which is a natural alliance in itself, the so-called gentlemen group and not the party.
There are so many court bigwigs who don't object, even if they are a little dissatisfied or even have red eyes, it's not worth mentioning.
So Yang Shen jumped four levels in a row and took office......
Wang Shouren, who was also busy with his studies, was already in Hunan at this time.
At this time, Wang Shouren was in pain and happy......
The success of Xingxue Nanzhili depends on the businessmen who have been cheated, but when the plaques are sent into the house and hung on the door, almost all the big businessmen who donated to the three township schools feel what is worthy!
Even the value can no longer be valued!
The status of businessmen is low, and they have always been the object of exploitation by the government, and businessmen who have no foundation or have lost their foundation are directly the fat in the eyes of officials.
Now, with the plaque of the Son of Heaven's Imperial Pen 'House of Benevolence' hanging there, if the local government still wants to demand too much from the merchants, then it really has to weigh whether its own weight is heavy enough.
Of course, it doesn't mean that this plaque has become a talisman, there can be no taboos, business and Taoism want to become bigger and stronger, can not do without the protection and support of the government, if the four o'clock is short of filial piety, even if the government does not deliberately make things difficult, just disgusting can disgust you.
Businessmen are profit-seeking, very shrewd, and naturally they will not do stupid things, but they bought a royal pen plaque with more than 10,000 taels of silver, which is indeed worth no more.
Fortunately, it is a pity that Wang Xunxue said that the businessmen who donate a lot of education will have the opportunity to be received by the Son of Heaven, and many emerging things in Tongzhou Industrial Park may also be handed over to them to sell.
When they first heard this, most of the businessmen were still skeptical, but they didn't have much hope, but who would have thought!
The Son of Heaven actually summoned seven merchants who donated more than five township schools, all of whom met the Holy Face, and indeed all had novelties being represented!
This kind of opportunity is really a rare time in a century, but it was missed by them so alive, and those who donated one or two township schools will be counted, but as long as they donate three, the businessmen who received the plaque all beat their chests with remorse.
Opportunities are hard to find, at least for the businessmen of Nanzhili, but now?
Wang Xun went to Hunan!
How can the businessmen of Hunan not be moved!
So there was no need for Wang Shouren to convene at all, and the threshold of the school tour yamen was almost broken.
However, Hunan business is not prosperous, and there are only a dozen big businessmen who really have the strength to donate five to go to the countryside to study, and there are many who are willing to donate three mixed plaques.
This is not to say that if you donate three, you don't have the strength to donate five, and it is a matter of a few thousand taels of silver, and you can still get it by gritting your teeth, but how can businessmen not have their own abacus?
The Son of Heaven's move is obviously to build momentum for the revitalization of learning, and it is to give Wang Shouren's absolute support, and Nanzhili is a typical example of the Son of Heaven erected and shown to the world's businessmen.
With the wisdom of the Son of Heaven, how could he not know that after this happened, the merchants in the world would definitely be eager to try, after all, which businessman was not willing to spend 20,000 or 30,000 taels of silver to get the Son of Heaven's reception, and he could also have royal business to do.
So don't ask, if you want to be received by the Son of Heaven this time, five township schools are definitely not enough, and ten must be the start!
When Wang Shouren finishes his studies in Hunan and moves to the next place, such as Hubei, it is estimated that ten schools may not be enough.
In other words, for the businessmen in Hunan, this is an opportunity to get big profits at a small price, and if you miss such an opportunity, you can only jump like the businessmen in Nanzhili.
"Grass people donate ten!" Hu Hao, a big businessman, patted his chest and seemed to have made up his mind.
As soon as Hu Hao's voice fell, several businessmen with similar net worth followed up one after another, asking for donations to ten township schools.
Wang Shouren did not speak.
"Ten?" Zhou Bo smiled and said, "I'll donate twenty!"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Shouren also looked slightly sideways.
Twenty Township School ...... According to the cost of a township school is 4,000 taels, 20 is 80,000 taels!
The Zhou family in Hunan is really wealthy!
But then again, this Zhou family ancestor has produced three Jinshi, the highest once an official to a squire of the Yingzong Dynasty, and now the Zhou family also has a side line of children as officials in the court, and there are also two lifters and more than a dozen talents in the current family study.
Although it is a family of businessmen, it is not bad to say that it is a scholarly family!
It is precisely with such a strong background that the Zhou family's business is very large, involving more than a dozen businesses such as grain, tea, pawnshops, etc., and it is the richest man in Hunan!
"Zhou Xiucai wants to donate twenty township schools?"
Zhou Bo also has a reputation for showing talent, but he can only be a talent in this life, in order to provoke the burden of the family business, he put down the Four Books and Five Classics and picked up the abacus......
However, Zhou Bo is indeed a business wizard, and in just a dozen years, the Zhou family's assets have increased by 30%, and he has completely secured the throne of the richest man in Hunan.
If Wang Shouren's first stop in the world is not Nanzhili but Hunan, even if he summons Hunan businessmen, even if Zhou Bo gives Wang Shouren, the face of the school tour, he will not donate more than three, or even only one.
Because this guy not only has a background and connections in officialdom, but he is also an iron rooster, do you expect to pluck the feathers on the iron rooster?
But this iron rooster suddenly went against the norm and even wanted to donate twenty township schools!
So all the businessmen were dumbfounded, and even Wang Shouren suspected that he had heard it wrong......
