Chapter 12 College Trivia
For example, what Lin Fengjin took out to the magistrate of the county was a letter from a member of the Nanzheng Officials' Department, and for a military attache like the county lieutenant, it must be a letter from Yu Linwei of the Ministry of War.
In short, now Li Hu is actively expanding the relationship network for the Tian family, it is difficult to get a letter from a waiter, a book, or something like a squire, but there are at least a few hundred officials in the entire ministry, and there are dozens of people who can take power.
Note: Among the first department of Nanzheng, there is one Shangshu (similar to the current minister), Zheng Sanpin, two Shilang (deputy minister), Zheng Sipinshang, two Langzhong people, Zheng Wupinshang, and two Yuanwailang, from the sixth rank.
Next, there are 11 people in the history of the Jiaku Order, 8 people in the pavilion chief, 12 people in the Zhanggu, 4 people in the history of the Si Feng Ling, 9 people in the history of the Shu Ling, 4 people in the Zhanggu, 33 people in the history of the Si Xun Ling, 67 people in the history of the Shu Ling, 4 people in the Zhanggu, 15 people in the history of the merit examination, 30 people in the history of the Shu Ling, and 4 people in the Zhanggu
After taking care of the affairs of the county first, Lin Fengjin asked people to go to the streets of the county to check the shops, and Ji Lu planned to expand his own business first, and then at this time, the obscene payment who went to inquire about the rules of the academy also turned back, and copied a copy of the rules in the academy and handed it over.
After Lin Feng read the rules of the academy, he decisively gave full play to the true character of the gentleman's money, decided to pay a high fine, and then went to rent a larger mansion outside the academy to live. As the saying goes, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift, since it is already the second generation of the rich, then it should naturally look like the second generation of the rich......
Among his group, Linde and Lewd Fu must stay, and Linde's wife Liu Zhi will definitely not leave, so he has to buy a small maid and maid, so the smaller house is really not able to live.
Fortunately, it was a bitterly cold year. It was also snowing heavily in the south, and Lin Fengjin was considered early at this time, and he had enough time to prepare for these things.
This person's family is also wealthy, directly in the best scenery of the Qingxi next to the hundreds of acres of land, after the construction of a large number of buildings, at this time, after the end of the school, this scholar returned to his hometown to prepare for the exam. It is estimated that he will not come back, so I asked the dental store to help deal with it.
It's just a little embarrassing that this house is troublesome to rent, so it is only sold and not rented, trying to save worry about a transaction, and the main family is not short of money, so it has been vacant since last year.
Lin Fengjin was not short of these few hundred taels at this time, rushed to see the environment, and then made sure of it. I felt very satisfied, so I entrusted the dental store to do the paperwork.
This kind of large transaction also needs to be witnessed in the county, and it usually takes a few days to wait, but I didn't expect Lin Fengjin's post to be handed over. The master who did the work heard the owner mention the name of Lin Fengjin, the "dragon crossing the river", and the tea was handed over, which made the people in the tooth line panic in their hearts, and pumped water (commission) from it. They are very gentle, and they come to the lowest standards.
After placing the people who accompanied him, Lin Fengjin held the letter of recommendation that he had purchased for more than 3,000 taels of silver. There is also a new household registration certificate (ethnic minority ID card) obtained from the county magistrate, and the official report of going to the academy. After a long distance, I saw that the gate of the academy was built with blue bricks and small tiles, and the pavement was made of stone slabs, which was very neat and elegant.
After walking in, I saw that the shadow wall on the opposite side was made of blue bricks and white tiles, which was very elegant, and it was written: self-victory is strong, self-seeing is clear, these ten words, stroke by stroke, very dignified, as if to reveal the stone wall to fly out.
Before Lin Fengjin came here, he also temporarily reviewed the relevant books, and knew that these two sentences came from Han Feizi, which means that those who can defeat themselves are strong, and those who can recognize themselves are wise.
After entering the second gate, I saw a plaque hanging under the gatehouse in front of me: Tianchang Academy. The person who signed the payment only wrote the word "Qi", and the writer of this plaque was He Qi, who was the senior brother of Shen Dao, the founder of the college.
This person is very famous today, I believe that when he wrote down these four words, he probably never thought that he could become famous in the world decades later, and become the great middle school of Xirong.
At this time, the founder of the academy, Shen Dao, had already retired because of his frailty and illness, and the current mountain chief/principal was his nephew Shen Ke, and under the mountain chief, there were three deputy mountain chiefs, six hall heads, and fourteen lecturers.
At this time, Lin Fengjin's goal is to find the deputy mountain chief Liu Qingshao, who is in charge of the general affairs of the outer courtyard, and find him to go through the admission procedures.
However, at this time, there were already five or six people in front of Lin Fengjin, all of whom were waiting outside, and Lin Fengjin could only wait, and saw a white stone erected next to it, which read: "The garden is full of flowers and trees half new, and the stone comes from the far shore of Pinghu." The bamboo shoots burst into the neighborhood, and the ground has several layers of moss through the mountain rain. These four very fresh verses,
Although he is named as the deputy mountain chief, he does the work of a housekeeper, often receives guests, and recruits students by him.
Lin Fengjin felt that this deputy mountain chief was very talkative, and he did not discriminate against him as an older child at all, but after thinking about it, the academy used such a deputy mountain chief to manage the outer disciples, which showed that most of them adopted the method of wide entry and strict exit, and it should not have too many expectations for the outer disciples.
After completing the formalities, Lin Fengjin was finally considered a student of the academy, although he had to add an adverbial of the outer door and the child in front of him. After the students came, they all went to study at any time, so Lin Fengjin will come to the academy tomorrow to listen to the lecture.
After he went out, he happened to see several young people walking in with their trouser legs very casually, hoes on their shoulders, and shoes in their hands, talking and laughing loudly as if no one was around. It's just that Lin Fengjin glanced at it a few more times, and the one with the thickest eyebrows among the young people looked over, frowned and said:
"What's there to see? Haven't you ever seen Shimoda working?"
Lin Fengjin shrugged his shoulders and smiled:
"I just think that in a place like the academy, walking barefoot and casually is a little disrespectful to the elder. ”
The other small-eyed young man immediately sneered:
"Our family is poor and self-reliant, but the mountain chief allows us to plough and study half-way! Some rich and noble people who don't know the walls of the crops, and the smell of copper is ruining the purity of the academy!"
Lin Fengjin said lightly:
"If I'm not mistaken, after walking here, it is the statue of Han Fei's first saint, although I don't read well or much, but I also know that Lu Dao should be self-cultivation in front of the first saint, proper clothes, sincerity, you go over like this, not only disrespectful to the elders, but also disrespectful to your own learning. This kind of simple thing that is not clear and clear, there are still people who raise the name of the mountain chief to oppress people, this knowledge is done amazingly"
Lin Fengjin finished speaking and left, these students were furious, and wanted to catch him to argue a few more words, but this guy had already gone out of the gate, got on the horse and whipped away. However, the young man with thick eyebrows pondered for a moment, and then began to tidy up his appearance, and the rest of the people were cursing stupidly.
It wasn't until I went back and inquired about Lin Fengjin that I realized that the survival and development of the academy was inseparable from funding, and at this time, the academy advocated education without class, not to mention that the academy was still playing the sign of educating barbarians?
Therefore, in addition to raising a sum of money from the children of wealthy families, the source of the college's maintenance and operation mostly depends on the school field. At the beginning of the rise of the academy, private funds for running the academy were mainly provided by private land or land donated by others. Therefore, if you want to open a college, you need not only knowledge, but also money.
Fortunately, Tianchang Academy is located in a remote county, so the cost of opening is low, and Shen Dao is also the son of a large family here, so it can last for forty years, and it is thriving. After the academy's school fields were reclaimed, there was already a surplus.
Therefore, for some inner disciples whose families are extremely poor and are indeed talented, the academy allows them to work and study half-time, while farming and studying, similar to the current work-study program.
And this kind of semi-cultivation does not require students to dig the ground, sow seeds, and harvest all the work, but only symbolic labor, and the rest is naturally done by tenant farmers.
Therefore, if you can go to the field to farm, it is actually a status symbol in Tianchang Academy. As soon as Lin Fengjin came, he offended these seniors who were favored by the academy, and he was afraid that his life would not be easy in the future. However, as far as Lin Fengjin's current personality is concerned, most of them will not take this matter to heart.
The next day, Lin Fengjin came to the academy, and according to the instructions of others, he came to the teaching room at the outer gate and sat down. The classroom is very neat, bright and spacious, and there are nearly 100 desks of all sizes, and the names of people are written on the rice paper pasted on the desks, which should be a measure to avoid random sitting, but about half of the seats have not yet been visited, and they must still be on the way.
When you come to the academy, the most important thing for students is their studies, and the daily study time is divided into four sections: after waking up, after breakfast, in the afternoon, and in the evening, and each section has a prescribed study task. And there are both self-study, discussion, and teacher solving, which is still very scientific. (To be continued......)
