Li Fengheng was surprised.

In his heart.

The Pope should be similar to the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Such a big man would even have an intersection with a small person like him.

Moreover.

The other party's attitude didn't seem domineering, it was something that I couldn't even think of.

If this is in the Heaven Dou Empire, his identity as a businessman is only afraid that he is worthless, not to mention being able to meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, the difference between the two, one in the sky and the other on the earth, is not related.

"His Holiness the Pope. This time, Mr. Li was called to discuss the issue of education. ”

"There are still a few important places in the new urban area plan, which have not been decided. One of them is the planning of the education district. ”

Li Mubai got straight to the point and got straight to the point.

"The Education District? Isn't the Martial Soul Hall able to awaken martial souls for free? These talented boys and girls, can't they all join the Wuhun Hall to study for free? ”

Bibi Dong was a little surprised.

Isn't it possible to study for free in the Martial Spirit Palace, why do you need to build a special academy?

Li Mubai shook his head, his tone full of regret:

"The free learning of the Martial Soul Hall is just for children with martial soul talent, what about those who don't have talent?"

Bibi Dong's expression moved slightly, and he looked at Li Mubai and asked, "What do you mean... Let those children who do not have the talent of martial arts also receive teaching? ”

"Yes."

Li Mubai nodded.

Li Fengheng, who was on the side, was also shocked by Li Mubai's remarks.

Although he had already known about Li Mubai's plan, this did not prevent admiration from rising in his heart.

Over the years, his state of mind has already undergone earth-shaking changes.

His true identity may still be a noble member of the Heaven Dou Empire, but in his heart, he has long forgotten his noble identity.

All of this stems from a woman he loves.

Li Xiaoxiao.

That's right.

It's such an ordinary name.

She was born in a humble background, she didn't know poetry and books, and she didn't have the talent of a soul master, just a weak woman.

But she is such a weak woman, but she has great ambitions.

Study.

Why?

She said: "After reading and reading, I can get the lowest title." I won't be a civilian, and your father won't stop us from being together because I'm a civilian. ”

Heaven Dou Empire.

The lowest knighthood can be obtained by examination.

That's what she's reading for.

It's a pity that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes.

The two failed to be together after all, and finally yin and yang separated.

That's why.

Li Fengheng resolutely decided to invest in the lowly status of a businessman despite his father's opposition, and he was bound to make a fortune in it.

He wanted to prove to his father that even ordinary people could be famous in this world of power and tyranny.

Thereupon.

A few days ago, when Li Mubai told him about this plan, he agreed without saying a word.

Ordinary children go to school and study, which is also what he wants to see.

If in other empires.

He may still have some concerns.

After all, books were treasured by the aristocracy, so how could those people tolerate passing on such a precious thing to the poor, who were second only to slaves?

The lowest rank of the two empires can be obtained by passing the exam.

If knowledge is given to those poor, isn't that a way to cut yourself off?

Therefore, knowledge has always been the product of monopoly, circulating only at the aristocratic level.

Of course.

In addition to this way of crossing classes, the poor have other ways.

One is to join the army, and the other is to rely on one's own martial soul talent.

But these two, no matter which one they are, are out of reach for ordinary people.

Ordinary children, even if they enter the army, are cannon fodder when they start a war.

Want to get a knight?

Think too much.

The credit belongs to the chief, so what does it matter to ordinary people?

As for the second martial soul talent, this is even less to count on.

Martial souls are hereditary, and this is something that the whole continent knows.

If the child had been gifted, his mother or father would not have been a pauper.

Of course, this is not absolute, the world is so big, there are no surprises, there are always one or two exceptions.

But except for this exception, most of them still don't have martial soul talents.

When most children awaken martial spirits, they are awakened sickles, hammers, hoes, or scissors, blue silver grass, etc., useless waste martial spirits.

Even if you can awaken a better martial soul, most of the subsequent innate soul power tests are unsatisfactory, and the future achievements are doomed from the beginning.

If you want to be knighted, or become a soul master, you can only dream, and you can have everything in your dreams.

"Ordinary people also need to teach, so what's the use? It's better to learn a skill, specialize in it, and bring forth the new on this basis. ”

Bibi Dong frowned slightly.

In her opinion, even if ordinary people are educated and can read and write, it is useless.

Wuhun City is not two empires, and you can get a knighthood.

Wuhun Hall relies on strength to speak, and there is no such thing as a title.

But.

Even so.

It is also a beautiful city in the eyes of many ordinary people.

Why?

Just because Wuhun City doesn't have so many harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes is enough.

The nobles of the two empires are in charge.

In order to feed this group of people, ordinary people have to face various types of deed taxes, and the amount of tax to be paid for each of them is very high.

Except for a few areas where life is okay, most villages are in misery, and it is common for them to eat the last meal without the next.

Li Mubai smiled indifferently and slowly took two steps.

Just as Li Fengheng and Bibi Dong were staring at his back, they said:

"The so-called education.

It is a social activity that imparts knowledge and technical norms in a purposeful, organized, planned and systematic manner.

The fundamental value of education is to provide Wuhun Hall with talents with lofty beliefs, noble morals, honesty and law-abiding, exquisite skills, erudition, and multi-specialization.

Nurturing and nurturing the workforce needed for economic and social development.

Cultivate qualified citizens to create scientific knowledge and material wealth for the Wuhun Temple, for the family, and for the society.

Promote economic growth, national prosperity, human development, world peace and human development.

Education is the cornerstone of the development of Wuhun Palace, education is related to the prosperity of Wuhun Palace, the well-being of the people and the future of Wuhun Palace, and education involves thousands of households.

Ultimately.

In order for the Wuhun Hall to be able to maintain long-term peace and stability, develop steadily, and promote the reform of education, it is a foregone conclusion. ”

Bibi Dong's brows furrowed so much that it became a Sichuan character.

Li Mubai said a lot of nouns, which caused her to not understand at all.

But.

In the last sentence of this paragraph, she understood, to put it bluntly, Li Mubai's purpose in doing this was for the good of the Martial Spirit Palace.

Although she didn't understand it in many places, it didn't prevent her from agreeing with it.

She thought carefully about Li Mubai's words, thought about it, and still frowned and raised her doubts.

"The implementation of education is indeed feasible, and perhaps, it can indeed make Wuhun City grow and develop. But..."

Looking at Li Mubai, who turned around, Bibi Dong continued:

"But have you ever thought that if you want to make education universal, education must be free.

Because more poor people cannot afford to pay for their children's schooling.

And the awakening of the martial soul that is tightly free has brought a lot of pressure to the martial soul hall.

If education is free of charge, it will greatly increase the burden on the Martial Spirit Palace.

With the current Martial Spirit Palace, how can it afford this part of the expenditure?

What's more, even if I agree to this matter, the finances of the Martial Spirit Hall can support it, but how can you sleep?"

Bibi Dong's words are very simple, to popularize education, yes!

But who pays?

For this problem, Li Mubai had already expected it.

He smiled faintly, and then moved his gaze to Li Fengheng, this question should be answered by this wealthy businessman.

Seeing Li Mubai coming, Li Fengheng immediately understood, then rolled up his sleeves and arched his hand towards Bibi Dong: "Your Excellency, Li is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”

"You?"

Bibi Dong looked at him with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Li Fengheng's identity, she already knew.

The Heaven Dou Empire, the youngest son of the Li family, has been away from home for ten years, and he has achieved today's achievements.

For businessmen, Bibi Dong disdains to understand.

But no matter what Li Fengheng said, he could be regarded as a relatively large businessman in Wuhun City, and his identity information would naturally appear on her workbench, so he learned about it naturally.

To Bibi Dong's surprise, since the other party was a member of the Heaven Dou Empire, how could he help the Wuhun Palace?

In her memory.

Even if the Wuhun Hall has some cooperation with the two empires, the vigilance of the two empires towards the Wuhun Hall has not decreased at all, but with the expansion of the Wuhun Palace, the vigilance has deepened day by day.

Especially this month.

After the Shuangfeng War, Li Mubai's fame became famous in the soul master world, and the two empires were even more afraid of the Wuhun Palace.

It was such a sensitive time.

Li Fengheng even dared to help the Wuhun Hall carry out beneficial reforms, isn't this asking for hardship?

Aren't you afraid that you will be caught by the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire and use your family to cut it?

Li Fengheng's face was respectful: "Your Excellency the Pope." You don't have to worry about the burden of opening a school. In this matter, Sili Commercial Bank will definitely do its best to support it. ”

Bibi Dong looked at Li Fengheng: "No merit is not punished." Why did you help the Soul Palace? Aren't you afraid that the Heaven Dou Empire will wear small shoes for your family? ”

Li Fengheng shook his head: "Your Excellency the Pope, I really don't hide it. Actually, just the year before, I got a letter from my brother. The Heaven Dou royal family is already dealing with the Li family in secret. ”

"Your Li family is the inheritor of the Heaven Dou Empire, and you are known for your iron selflessness. The power in his hands is even more amazing. How many generations of hard work have you paid for the Heaven Dou Empire, how can the Heaven Dou Imperial Family move you? ”

Bibi Dong came to interest.

Of course she knew about the situation in the Heaven Dou Empire.

But for the specific power struggle, this kind of thing is not something she can know.

Of course.

If she wanted to know, she must have the ability to know these things, but she had no interest in them.

At this moment, under Li Fengheng's story, there was a hint of interest.

Li Fengheng smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency the Pope has praised it falsely. It is the excessive power in this hand that has attracted the jealousy of the royal family! ”

"And what do you mean?"

Hearing this, Bibi Dong had some understanding of what Li Fengheng wanted to say.

"The Pope is a great talent, and he must have guessed the purpose of the following." Li Fengheng didn't want to hide anything, so he simply said straightforwardly:

"That's right, I'm paving the way for the Li family in the future. If Li Jiazhen is forced by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family at that time, I hope that the Pope will allow us to settle down in Wuhun City. ”

"If you solve the worries of the Martial Spirit Palace, then this matter is not unavoidable."

Bibi Dong agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Considering that the Li family is just surrendering, what about the situation of wanting to spy on the Martial Spirit Palace?

With enough strength, of course, she is not afraid of all wind and rain, this is the confidence of the Wuhun Palace, it is her confidence!

Once the other party enters Wuhun City, it will be completely under her line.

A group of ordinary people, what is there to worry about?

"Li once again replaced the Li family, thank you Pope."

Li Fengheng respectfully declined.

Seeing that the matter was discussed, Bibi Dong asked people to deposit all the money into the treasury of the Wuhun Palace.

Li Mubai also took Li Fengheng to say goodbye and leave.

Leaving the Wuhun Palace, Li Mubai directly took Li Fengheng to the wasteland planned by the new district.

No.

It can't be called a wasteland anymore.

Li Mubai, who had just come here, saw a group of people, holding shovels, hammers and other tools, making drastic changes to the wasteland.

The weeds that used to be all over the ground have disappeared now, and only bare rocks are left in place.

And these strange rocks are slowly disappearing into the hammers of the workers.

The construction of the new area is proceeding rapidly!

Li Mubai came directly to the raised hill of the wasteland, this place is the planning place of the school.

He plans to turn this raised hill and the surrounding thousands of acres of land into the largest university in the world.

And the teachers of this academy will not be any soul masters, nor will they teach any soul master combat skills, nor will they teach courses on how to speed up their cultivation.

This academy only teaches physicalization.

Or something like nitrate, disulfur, and charcoal.

In particular, one nitrate, two sulfur and three charcoal, this is an important course in this college!

He wants to let the brilliant spark bloom in this world.

Once gunpowder appears in this world, the pattern of this world will definitely change dramatically.

This is the most direct way to enhance the comprehensive strength of the Martial Spirit Palace!

After Li Mubai explained some detailed plans for Li Fengheng, he left directly.

The rest of the things were handed over to Li Fengheng.

And what Li Mubai has to do is just come to check the progress of the project regularly.

.....

In a blink of an eye.

A few more days passed.

There are still three days left before the monthly meeting of the Martial Spirit Palace.

And today.

It is the day when the Wuhun Hall distributes the money.

A woman's boudoir.

Hu Liena looked at the things sent by the visitor, and her face was full of doubts: "What's the matter, why is today's pocket money several times more?" ”

Whoa...

The gold coins in the bag made a crisp sound under Hu Liena's weighing.

At this moment, Hu Liena was very puzzled.

Why is today's pocket money suddenly increasing?

Wasn't it always a little bit in the past?

Could it be that her teacher suddenly felt that the money she gave before was too little, or maybe she saw her recent efforts, so she gave more money as a reward?

These ideas were quickly overturned by Hu Liena.

The monthly pocket money is almost always a fixed amount, and it is unlikely that it will suddenly increase much.

She still knows very well what kind of person she is a teacher.

Suddenly.

An idea popped into Hu Lina's head.

"Could it be that the Tenth Elder's messy project is really making money?"
