Mei Ruoyan asked Fei'er to prepare gifts and carriages, and rushed to Yuyan Bookstore with Shao Xi. Shao Xi said that he also wanted to send some books and the four treasures of the study to the children in the school, although these free things are also provided in the school on weekdays, but after all, there is still a limit to the amount of use.

This is also the original Hao Yi proposed to be diligent and thrifty in running a school, most of the children who go to school in Yuyantang have no money at home, and even some are orphans.

The reputation of the school has not yet been hit, although it has a relationship with the Egret Academy, but so far the rich children in Daliang City are still willing to study in the Egret Academy, and Yuyantang is only recruiting some poor students at the moment.

Shao Xi didn't mind this, originally he didn't run his own school to make money, but Hao Yi always felt that since the school had provided free room and board, and also went to school for free, he should save as much as possible in terms of daily use.

Although Shao Xi once said to Hao Yi that there is no need to consider the expenses, Hao Yi still adheres to the policy of running a school with diligence and thrift, and saves if he can.

At this point, Shao Xi can't blame him for being stingy, to a certain extent, he can be regarded as a grateful retribution, since he can't bring Shao Xi any obvious rewards at the moment, then he uses saving money for Shao Xi to show his gratitude.

Shao Xi also deeply understands this, so he has never blamed him on this matter. Since I am going to visit the students in the school today, I just took this opportunity to send some books and the four treasures of the study to the children in the school, which can be regarded as an encouragement to them in their studies.

When Shao Xi and Mei Ruoyan came to Yuyan Bookstore in a carriage, Shao Xi sighed that he had been away from Kyoto for half a year, and now he came back to the door of Yuyan Bookstore, where people still came and went, and there were many booksellers, and it seemed that the business was better than half a year ago!

It seems that in the past six months, Bai Dinggong and Liu Xingzhai have not only expanded their business scale, but also improved the quality of book printing.

Before leaving, he repeatedly instructed the bookstore that the price of the books sold must remain unchanged and not increase in price.

Now it seems that there are more and more people reading books, and there are naturally more and more people buying books, and the business of this bookstore is becoming more and more prosperous, no wonder it has made so much money in half a year.

After Shao Xi and Mei Ruoyan entered the bookstore, they directly called the steward, prepared two boxes of books and two boxes of four treasures of the study, loaded them into a flat carriage, and turned around to go to Yuyan Hall with them.

However, the most important thing to come this time is to pick a few decent books, so that Xiao Yuming can take them with him when he goes back to the palace.

This prince likes to read books on weekdays, so there is never a shortage of all kinds of classics and classics, poems and beautiful texts in his study.

Shao Xi felt a little embarrassed for a while, but Mei Ruoyan gave Shao Xi a good idea. Since the prince loves reading so much, he must also like to write, so Shao Xi might as well simply choose some good calligraphy calligraphy and rubbings to bring into the palace and give them to the prince.

Even if the prince does not lack these things on weekdays, it will not be too much, and there is no need to guess Xiao Yuming's preferences on weekdays to send these things.

Although it is not written by the calligraphers themselves, it is just some printed matter, but it does not have much impact on the appreciation.

Shao Xi felt that Mei Ruoyan's proposal made some sense, after all, ordinary prints were too featureless, and these calligraphy masters were printed separately through more complex rubbings and reproductions, which were more difficult to print, and sending these things could show that they were more sincere.

So Shao Xi listened to Mei Ruoyan's opinion, and asked the steward to choose a few volumes with posters and rubbings engraved by some famous artists.

After everything was done, they loaded it into the carriage, and the two of them rode all the way to Yuyan Hall. When Shao Xi founded Yuyantang, he didn't choose a place that was too noisy, after all, this place to study was not suitable for being too lively, but the place where it was located was also prosperous.

In addition, the establishment of the school requires the purchase of a large piece of land, of course, it is more cost-effective to buy cheaper, not to mention that the warehouse of the cloth store was in a hurry to get rid of it, so he bought it.

Now it seems that the location of this school is just right. When the two of them came to the Yuyan Hall, the school had already begun to teach, and the supervisor of the academy was originally the gentleman of the Egret Academy, so he naturally recognized Shao Xi, and when he saw Shao Xi coming, he hurriedly invited Shao Xi and Mei Ruoyan into the main hall of the academy for tea.

At the same time, it was arranged for someone to properly place the cart of books and the four treasures of the study room brought by Shao Xi for distribution, while the pastries and snacks brought by Mei Ruoyan were arranged to be evenly distributed in the canteen according to the number of students in the college, and one for each person when the meal was served.

After everything was arranged, Shao Xi asked everyone to go about their own affairs, while he and Mei Ruoyan wandered around in this Jade Word Hall Academy.

Speaking of which, Mei Ruoyan is more familiar with this place than Shao Xi, Shao Xi has been here for half a year, but Mei Ruoyan often comes here to take a look.

In the past six months, the academy has indeed been built quite well, and the courtyard has also built a rockery lotus pond, pavilion and bridge, which looks like an elegant scenery, and does not have so much dull atmosphere for learning.

Shao Xi is very satisfied with this, the school should have a relaxed and elegant learning environment, if it is like a military camp, the pressure on the students will naturally be much greater.

Although reading in this era is the only way for many people to advance to that level, only a very small number of people can really step into that class.

Shao Xi's purpose is more to let these children who can't afford to read learn real knowledge, even if they are just a teacher in the future, a craftsman or a businessman, it is better to read than to be illiterate who can't read a few words.

This is what Shao Xi once said with Bai Dinggong and others about opening up the wisdom of the people and learning from the world. Listening to the loud reading voices of the middle school students in the school, Shao Xi also began to miss his student days.

When I was in school, I always liked to skip class and go to play ball with my male classmates in the same grade, and the head teacher looked for his mother for this matter, so angry that my mother chased him with a rolling pin and didn't know how many times?

Thinking about it now, Shao Xi feels very regretful that he didn't listen to his teacher and mother back then, otherwise he would not have just studied secondary school and evolved into a factory worker, and he would not have had the experience of being unemployed and working as a security guard in the Yancheng parking lot.

Only those who have experienced it know that in fact, the easiest thing in life is to study and study when you are a student.

When a person goes out into society and faces the reality, he will find that everything is actually more difficult than learning in school, but he didn't understand this truth when he was young.

Now Shao Xi is living again, although the conditions are more difficult than in the past, but in the ten years of the grassland, he has learned the lessons of the past, and through hard self-study, he has mastered a lot of knowledge that needs to be mastered in this era.

At least be able to adapt yourself to this era, otherwise it is impossible to be so praised by the two old gentlemen, Bai Dinggong and Liu Xingzhai.

He hopes that the students in this school will be able to succeed in their studies, because in this era, life will be more difficult for people without knowledge, and they will not even have the opportunity to work as security guards in the parking lot.

Looking at the education career created by himself in front of him, an unprecedented sense of pride arose in his heart, and he never imagined that he, a former scumbag, would one day be able to lead the development of education in an era.

Although it is ironic to say, it is the painful experience that has become my best teacher, so that I can truly realize how important knowledge is for a person's life and for the development of an era.

Just thinking that he could influence a generation, Shao Xi already felt that it was worth it to come to this world, even if he would become nothing in the future, at least he had left the most important thing here.

Before I knew it, a morning had passed, and as the school ended at noon, the gentlemen in the academy began to arrange for the students to go to the dining hall for dinner.

At this time, Hao Yi also walked out of the lecture room, and was taking a photo with Shao Xi and the others, so with a smile on his face, he quickly came to Shao Xi and bowed down, and greeted Shao Xi and Mei Ruoyan.

This Hao Yi looks full of scholarly spirit, he has always been polite, modest and amiable, Shao Xi has always had a good impression of him, this is a responsible gentleman.

"Mr. Hao has worked so hard! I was ordered by the imperial court to go to Nanzhao as an envoy, and this trip was half a year, and the academy was all operated by Mr. Hao for half a year, and I am really grateful. Hao Yi hurriedly bowed down and saluted again, and replied with a humble face: "Mr. Shao has said it, Mr. Shao, as the head of the academy, is naturally worried about some big things, if these trivial things in the academy can't be shared for Mr. Shao, won't he become a useless person in the future?"

"Mr. Shao can establish this academy so that these poor children can have books to read, it is really a meritorious thing, in addition to gratitude and admiration to Mr. Shao, how dare to say anything hard? In the future, I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Shao for the children, who have made these children have a better future. Shao Xi likes Hao Yi's this, being able to devote all his body and mind to the care and education of these poor children, regardless of the gains and losses of personal interests, this is the good character that a teacher should have.

"Mr. Hao is too modest, doing well is doing well, I have always been a person! Seeing the current scene of the academy, I naturally know Mr. Hao's dedication to Yuyantang.

"When I came this time, I saw that the number of middle school students in the academy has increased significantly compared to half a year ago, I wonder where Mr. Hao recruited so many students?" When Hao Yi heard Shao Xi ask about this, a proud expression suddenly appeared on his face.
