Chapter 132: Preparing for the College (Part II)
Tian Shanchang saw the sincerity he said, and understood in his heart that this son was not just playing, so he was willing to talk to him more about the follow-up development of the academy.
"Your idea is naturally good, but the masters of the academy know very little about this, how much can you teach by yourself?"
He Qiu wasn't worried about this, "Let's do it first, I'm not in a hurry, and I can also draw some manpower from some commercial houses." ”
Although He Qiu really wanted to "run into communism", he also understood that the current Ming poetry and book heirloom idea was deep-rooted, and he could not easily shake it alone.
It can only be said that he did it casually and put a few idlers on it.
He Qiu also said his strategy: "You just need to notify the nearby Zhuangzi and tell them that if they are willing to learn more of my courses, they can enter the school for free, and I will provide them with room and board." ”
"If you study well, there will be a scholarship, of course, if you don't study well, you still have to make up the tuition."
Tian Shan felt that such conditions were already very good, and should be able to attract many children from the neighborhood to enroll, and this academy was originally opened for the children of nearby farmers, and there were few good conditions.
But if you want to say that the parents of these students do not understand the benefits of reading, it is pure nonsense, but the cost of reading is too high to afford.
After all, a set of four books and five classics, plus the usual paper and ink money, is a lot, if you buy some more contemporary texts, the cost will be even higher. However, there are still a few people who are really admitted to the show, the road is too difficult, and the input is not proportional to the output.
Tian Shan Chang was still quite satisfied with He Qiu, seeing that He Qiu was so enthusiastic, he thought of when he would buy the academy and renovate it.
He didn't want to hide the matter from He Qiu, and said with a grim face: "Actually, if I want to transfer the academy, it's not that I really can't run it." It's just that most of the surrounding areas are Huangzhuang, and the steward of the village has always wanted to take away the land of the academy and connect the Huangzhuang together. ”
"But this is just what he said, I heard the farmers on the village say that this steward is not so kind, he is planning to swallow the land of my academy privately, I really can't resist such people, and I plan to sell the academy in frustration."
As he spoke, the Tian Shan chief looked at He Qiu and Zhu Di with hopeful eyes, for fear of embarrassment on their faces.
Zhu Di didn't care, "It's just such a killing talent, it's just a slave of the Son of Heaven, and it's just a matter of taking him down, Tian Shanchang can rest assured." ”
Tian Shan grew up overjoyed, as the saying goes, "Hades is good, but the little ghost is difficult", this Huangzhuang steward is equivalent to a little ghost, or a little ghost wearing a royal skin, if you can't do anything, it's easy to do bad things.
Although he is a showman, there is no good way to hold such characters, and it is difficult to say whether the same year recognizes him as an old and poor sour.
He Qiu saw that this Tian Shan chief might be a nerd, but he was quite sincere, so he planned to finish the renovation of the academy before the acquisition, and by the way, help him send the steward of Huangzhuang away.
After all, it's not good to keep him scared.
He Qiu opened his mouth and said to Tian Shanchang: "Old Mountain Chief, don't worry, no matter whether the acquisition of the academy can be completed or not, we will definitely help you solve this stewardship." By the way, I helped repair the academy, and if it was not negotiated in the end, the repair fee would be considered to be given to you by me. ”
Elder Tian Shan's face flushed, a scholar, after all, he wants to save face, and he resolutely refuses to accept it. He couldn't help the matter of taking charge, so he could let He Qiu and them help solve it, but the mountain chief didn't agree to the matter of repairing the academy.
Tian Shan Changzheng said: "Originally, you helped me solve the matter of the management of the Imperial Village, and I have already taken advantage." If you can't negotiate the cost of repairing this academy, I'll give it to you anyway. ”
He Qiu couldn't help but glance at Tian Shanchang in his heart, and said with a smile: "Then I'm going to arrange for someone to come over." ”
The two discussed the details of the cooperation here, and reached a preliminary cooperation agreement. Before leaving, He Qiu asked Tian Shanchang if he could notify the parents of the child outside. He planned to take this child as an apprentice, and he would take it away directly today.
Tian Shan nodded, he could still do this little thing, and he felt pitiful when he saw the child, so he turned a blind eye to his behavior of skipping classes, otherwise he would have been driven away a long time ago.
Out of the academy, He Qiu Wenyan asked about the child's family situation.
He claimed to be Li Goudan, he didn't have a big name, his family was headed by his stepmother, and his biological mother died when he was born.
This stepmother treats him harshly, which is normal, it's not that his own children don't hurt, but his father also ignores the situation, he is six or seven years old, and he doesn't have a serious name, and he also sends him to mow the grass and feed the pigs.
The youngest son in the back began to look for an enlightened teacher early. He Qiu could only sigh secretly in his heart, but although this child was in rags, he had no stage fright in front of them, and he could only sigh in his heart that he was really a poor man's child.
He Qiu immediately gave the child a name, Li Siwei, taken from "Guanzi" "The state has four dimensions, one dimension is absolutely tilted, two dimensions are dangerous, three dimensions are overthrown, and four dimensions are extinct."
Li Siwei was so moved that he almost cried, and seriously gave He Qiu a bow to the teacher, calling him a teacher.
He Qiu comforted and comforted him well, and took him and Zhu Di and the others to check on the other academies they had contacted before.
I have to say that it makes sense for Ma He to put this academy in the first place, and the situation in the later academy is really bad, the mountain chiefs are all old and stubborn, with a mouthful of benevolence and morality, and they refuse He Qiu's desire to open other courses.
The angry He Qiu never mentioned the repair fee for the academy, and returned to the palace with Zhu Di and his party depressed. Only then did he feel how difficult it was to engage in basic subject education in Daming, and the impact of science was really far-reaching.
When he arrived at the palace, He Qiu first asked the maids to lead Li Siwei down and settle down, and he and Zhu Di sighed there.
Zhu Di came out of Tian Shanchang, his face was not very good, and now he finally couldn't hold it back, "A little Huangzhuang steward dares to force the academy to sell land at a low price, and he wants to take the land for himself, he really deserves to be killed!" ”
He Qiu frowned, "You can't kill such villains, you should think about how to reduce the occurrence of such things." ”
"Just a steward dares to do this, it can be seen how corrupt the atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty is, and reform is imperative."
Zhu Di sighed about the reform, and asked curiously: "I don't know what class you plan to teach?" I can see that you definitely didn't tell Tian Shan the truth. ”
He Qiu said with some uncertainty, "Mathematics, history, geography, physics, chemistry, biology, plus Western things? ”
