Chapter 163: Preparing for the Creation of the Jade Word Hall
Shao Xi sent Mei Ruoyan back to Mingfeng Fang, and agreed that Shao Xi would come to the workshop to support Mei Ruoyan in a few days, this time Mei Ruoyan reluctantly agreed with Shao Xi that she must come, and she must not miss the appointment again, otherwise she will really be angry and ask for guilt.
On the way back, Shao Xi kept thinking about what Mei Ruoyan said to herself, maybe it was really time to put down Ye Ziyuan's affairs, after all, there was still a long way to go, just try her best to do her thing after her death.
Thinking of this, Shao Xi reached out and touched the sheepskin belt bag on his waist, and the red ribbon was lying quietly in the waist bag at this time.
As Mei Ruoyan said, put that person in the depths of your heart, don't forget, and quietly keep that memory and continue your life!
Mei Ruoyan also said to him just now, "As long as you are alive, you will meet many people in your life, and you will leave many people, many things may you have to pick up, but you are also destined to put it down one day, grasp the things you can grasp in your hands, and learn to let go if you can't grasp them." ”
Yes, some people have to leave after all, some things have to be let go after all, no matter how tightly you hold on, you still have to let go one day.
Now that he has planned to prepare for the establishment of the school, he must not delay, this matter must be completed within a month, because he will be sent to Nanzhao in a month, how can he have time to be busy with these messy things at that time?
Although I am not worried that the Bai Ding Guild will oppose this matter, I have to go and say hello to my husband, no matter how I say it, this is also a separate door, as a protégé of others, this is the minimum courtesy, and I can't take my teacher seriously, right?
Thinking of this, Shao Xi quickened his pace and rushed towards the Egret Academy, this matter was said to be done as soon as possible, so that those children could be brought over as soon as possible.
When Shao Xi walked into the backyard of Egret Academy, he was in a trance for a while, is this still the previous academy? It's literally a factory.
The processes in the paper mill and the printing room are well organized, and the workers are busy with their duties. The finished paper is neatly cut by the workers, and the excess material is sent back to the processing room for reprocessing; Workers in the printing room cut the printed pages and began to bind them, and the bound books were neatly stacked in large wooden boxes, ready to be pulled away.
The backyard of the entire Egret Academy was a busy scene at this time, and no one even noticed Shao Xi when he walked in, let alone greeted him.
At this time, Bai Dinggong and Liu Xingzhai were supervising and managing the work of the workers on site, and if they found that there was a mistake or improper operation in the process, they would correct and adjust it on the spot.
Shao Xi couldn't help but complain secretly in his heart, the two old masters who were academics are no longer academic, and have become the workshop directors of the paper mill and the printing room, isn't this not a serious job? Neither of you are writing books, what am I going to print? How can I make money without books to sell? Isn't it putting the cart before the horse?
I persuaded them last time, but it didn't seem to have any effect, it seems that people often say that people can't be idle when they are old!
Now Shao Xi didn't bother to persuade again, and after walking in front of the two masters to meet the ceremony, he bluntly mentioned the establishment of the school.
Originally, I thought that the two old masters should at least hesitate, but who knew that the two old men were very excited after hearing the news, and they all strongly agreed, which made Shao Xi a little confused.
It stands to reason that Shao Xi's approach will not only take away a large number of students from Egret Academy, but also affect the influence of Egret Academy.
"Shao Xi! Don't think that the two of us are old and stubborn, and now your new school is cultivating more useful talents for the world. And you said that you only accept the children of the poor, I think your idea is very good, since the funds for running the school are sufficient, there is no need to accept those gentlemen, and there is no way to be a teacher back then, and now it seems that only the poor students are really studying hard. Although you are called the old man's protégé, but the old man has never taught you anything until now, but you have taught us two old guys a lot of things, and now you run a school and I am still in the name of a teacher, how can I object? You run the school well, and our two old guys will support you! ”
Bai Dinggong was really an open-minded person, and a few words dispelled Shao Xi's concerns.
"Since you run a school, I can't find so many gentlemen who teach for a while, so it is better for Ding Gong and me to arrange some protégés to teach in your school. At the beginning, it was you who put forward the idea of creating a new school, and now in your school, the school created by the two of us back then is used as the foundation, so as to pave the way for you to preach the new school in the school in the future, what do you think? ”
Liu Xingzhai's support for this matter is no less than that of Bai Dinggong, and now the two of them are busy in the dark, and the teaching is also taught to their protégés, Shao Xi founded the school, and they are naturally willing to let the protégés who have no chance to teach to Shao Xi's school to exert their heat.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it was Shao Xi who helped their students who didn't find anything to do to solve the employment problem, originally Shao Xi's school started from the baby, and the early teaching didn't need to be at the level of Mr. How high, so wouldn't it be just right? Employers and the talent market are seamlessly connected.
At present, the problem of teachers has finally been solved, Shao Xi is not worried that there will be no Mr. to teach him in the future, as long as the remuneration is given, no matter how good the teacher can be, at present, the two old masters have helped him solve the most urgent needs, Shao Xi is grateful in his heart.
This matter was approved and helped by the two old masters, and Shao Xi felt a lot more relieved.
The next thing is to contact the shopkeeper Cao, now he is not short of money in his hands, and the industry that needs to be purchased by this school can no longer be funded by Taihe Commercial Bank in any case, and he always takes advantage of others and feels sorry in his heart.
As for the rest, it is not a problem at all for Shao Xi, in short, it is easy to do things with money, and it is easier to spend money than to make money.
In the next three days, Shao Xi ran inside and out, first buying a large mansion in the relatively prosperous area in the west of the city through Cao's shopkeeper.
Shao Xi's requirements are very simple, the house does not need to be luxurious, but it must be large enough to support the scale of the school. The shopkeeper Cao also lived up to expectations, and the house he found not only covers a large area, but also has a large area of houses.
I heard that this was the largest cloth store warehouse in Daliang City to store fabrics, and now the cloth shop business is not good, so I want to sell this warehouse for emergency purposes, so although the area of the house is large, the price is more than half cheaper than when I bought Shuangxue Building, which makes Shao Xi's heart feel refreshed.
The house was bought, and the next thing was to ask a craftsman to repair and renovate, and then to hire a carpenter to build the furniture and utensils needed for the desks, bookshelves, bookcases, etc., in short, everything was available, and basically all the places that the Egret Academy had were still purchased.
As for the name of the school, Shao Xi specially went to consult Bai Dinggong, although it was a self-supporting door, but if Bai Dinggong asked him to name the school Bailu Academy, he would have nothing to say. Who knew that Bai Dinggong generously said that this school was founded by Shao Xi alone, and this name should no longer be called Bailu Academy, so he suggested that Shao Xi use the name of the bookstore, and the school should simply be named "Yuyan Hall".
Shao Xi was a little depressed in his heart, he finally didn't need to be called Feng Yuyan, and used his name back, why do you feel that everywhere is Feng Yuyan now? It's about to form a psychological shadow.
But if you think about it carefully, you will be relieved, isn't it Feng Yuyan?
used Feng Yuyan's body, using Feng Yuyan's identity, from Lao Wu to Bai Dinggong, and then to the many people in the court who took care of themselves, which one didn't look at his identity as Feng Yuyan? It would be a bit unkind to complain about this matter now.
They didn't offend you, you ran to others yourself.
Besides, since he used someone else's body, it is also appropriate to leave something for him in this world, and someone else can still leave a tombstone when he dies! Now that your body is occupied by you, and you can't live in peace, what's wrong with leaving a name for others?
Shao Xi pays attention to efficiency, and the renovation of the interior of Yuyantang has been completed in three days, and a comprehensive and thorough renovation has been carried out from the inside to the outside.
The efficiency is so high, all thanks to the salary given by Shao Xi. In the past three days, the craftsmen have been working almost desperately, you must know that this trip has earned more than the past two years, how can you not play with your life?
After the completion of the project, the hired workers and handymen cleaned the inside and outside of the school and made it spotless. Shao Xi stood in the courtyard, looked at the plaque with the three big characters "Yuyantang" hanging on the lintel of the main hall, and nodded with satisfaction.
Three days! It only took Shao Xi three days to conjure up a school out of thin air.
However, the matter is not over, although the school has been completed, there are still many troublesome things to do. Mr. Teach is no longer a problem, the four treasures of the study, books, poems, scrolls, and classics of history are not a problem for Shao Xi, who opened a bookstore, and now the biggest problem is that he needs to go to Jingzhao Mansion to record and register in order to recruit students, open classes, and preach and lecture.
The imperial court itself encourages the private sector to establish private schools, but it must be verified and certified by the local government, and only when it is determined that the academy it founded has sufficient teachers and the courses taught are not some sideways and fallacies, can it be officially opened and taught.
This matter is troublesome and troublesome, and it is simple to say simple. With Shao Xi's current rank and official position, it is not impossible to talk to Yin of Jingzhao Mansion directly, the problem is that he is not familiar with others! Is it appropriate to come to the door so bluntly?
He is not suitable, but there is one person who is suitable, and he thinks of his senior brother Bai Jingnian.
It shouldn't be difficult for Dr. Guozi to apply for a school qualification, right?
