Chapter Seventy-Nine: Building a School
On April 10, Jingci received the good news brought by Yang Miao from Jingcicheng in Wangcheng and was very happy. According to Yang Miao's description, the current bandits in Jingci City have all been eliminated. After the elimination of the Baosu forces on March 25, in the following days, all the bandits in the territory were cleared in one go, and a total of more than 300 people were captured.
Yang Miao handed over more than 300 people to Shang Ziche for trial, and as a result of the trial, nearly half of them were demoted to slavery, half of them were directly used to open the mountain and open the road, and half of the slaves were sold in other cities or exchanged for female slaves and brought back to Jingci City.
There are also three layers of bandits who usually do not do evil, and are sentenced to five years of labor for Jingci City, and after completion, they will return to civilian life.
There are also two layers of evildoers, all of whom are beheaded.
Jingci wrote back to Yang Miao, praised it, and added that he hoped to build more schools in Jingci City to educate the world, and said that he would meet Dazhiguo around August, and whether he was willing to go to Dazhiguo at that time, Yang Miao decided by himself, if he didn't go, he would return to the west one day, and Jingcicheng would be handed over to Yang Miao.
On April 20, Yang Miao received a reply from Jingci, saying that he would build more schools to educate the world, and let him suddenly have an inspiration, Jingci is a famous person in the mainland, and Jingci City is a fief of Jingci, and it should be a holy place for scholars.
Yang Miao immediately replied to Jingci, to the effect that he would follow Jingci to Dazhiguo, and before that, he would establish enough junior schools in Jingci City, so that all the children in Jingci City, including the children of civilians, could read. It is also necessary to establish some intermediate schools to cultivate talents for Jingci City and even Dashan Country.
When Jingci received this letter, he was very excited, and he wanted to come to Jingci City to make a contribution, but Shan Zhengmin explained the actual situation to him before stopping him. Jing Ciren didn't go, but he still wrote a letter and sent it to Du He in Shanning City, meaning that he would help Yang Miao build the school together, and explain that this was a major event for the benefit of future generations.
Yang Miao soon summoned Qiu Shi, Jia Zhenqi, Shang Ziche, Di Shi and Gong Lin, and prepared to start from the city first.
"I received a letter from my teacher who told me that he wanted to build some schools. After I saw it, I was deeply touched, this is the city of Jingci, and it is the fief of celebrities and gentlemen. This should be a holy place for scholars, and a place for scholars in the world to study. β
Yang Miao looked at everyone, and after hearing this, they were very interested, and continued: "I want to build a school in Jingci City, not only in the city, but also outside the city, not only to build a primary school for children to read and write, but also to build an intermediate school to cultivate talents for the future Jingci City, Dashan Country, and even the mainland." β
"You must be wondering if I'm naΓ―ve, and I can tell you that I have to do it, even if I do it slowly, but I have to do it. β
Yang Miao looked at everyone's surprised expressions, thinking that they would definitely ask a lot of questions, and Yang Miao finally said very firmly: "No matter how much I pay, I will build enough schools so that all children can go to school, for the primary school, it is free for two years, and the children learn basic reading, speaking, reading and writing." β
Qiu Shishi and the other five people stood up, bowed deeply, and Qiu Shishi said: "Childe, I used to value Childe's identity and ability, but starting today, I really admire Childe, Childe's move will be able to be passed down through the ages and benefit the world." β
Shang Ziche said: "Senior Brother's farsightedness has really conquered me today, no matter how difficult it is, I will definitely assist Senior Brother to complete this matter." β
Master Di bowed again, "Today's actions will definitely make Jingci City famous on the mainland, and Jingci City will definitely become a holy place in the eyes of scholars in the future, and it is a blessing for me to have the opportunity to participate in this matter." β
Yang Miao was also stunned, he thought that there would be a lot of problems to send him, but he didn't know that it was all praise.
Yang Miao calmed down and said: "I have received your compliment, but this matter is indeed very difficult, the first is to choose the site, whether there is an existing house for the establishment of the school, the second is money, I proposed that you can study for free for two years, and the cost of these two years needs to be paid by the City Lord's Mansion; the third is Mr. Teaching, can you invite such a gentleman." β
Qiu Shishi said: "Childe, I will solve the third problem you said, I can get the list of some of the teacher's students from Senior Brother Shan Zhengmin, there are always some students who are teaching like me, and it will not be too difficult to invite them at that time." β
Shang Ziche said: "Senior brother in charge, I can solve the second money problem, during this time, we rented out the empty street houses, and the Dongshan thieves also have more than 200,000 taels of silver into the treasury, plus the timber has begun to be sold, and now the treasury has about 300,000 taels of silver." β
Yang Miao asked Shang Ziche: "The east of the city will build a separation belt, and the east mountain will build roads and houses, all of which will cost money, have you counted them?"
Shang Ziche replied: "Childe, I have already counted them, and the cost of these is not large, because we have received a lot of labor from Dongshan, and these people do not need to be paid." β
Gong Lin said, "The first problem that the chief manager said, I can help solve it, and I am very familiar with the city. β
Yang Miao said, "Okay, let's do this together." β
"First of all, Shang Ziche is responsible for planning the approximate location of the school, and Gong Lin assists in finding out the suitable house. At the same time, Mr. Qiu began to go to Mr. according to their plan, of course, Mr.'s first choice was people in the city or nearby cities, which would be more stable. β
"Di Shi came to write a notice, writing down the matter of the city lord's mansion to run a school, as well as a subsequent planning idea. Submit it to me once you've written it. Yang Miao said.
After the meeting was dismissed, each of them entered into the matter.
Di Shi's notice was handed over to Yang Miao on the same day, and after reading it, there was no problem, so it was stamped and posted.
According to the distribution area of the population, Shangziche plans to run three junior schools in the south of the city, one junior school in the east of the city, five junior schools in the west of the city, and three junior schools in the north of the city.
As for the outside of the city, it is planned to set up a junior school in Beishan, and there will also be a school in the west and south of the outside of the city.
After Yang Miao saw it, he set up an additional school in the city. The final plan is to set up 16 junior schools first.
Yang Miao also proposed to set up an intermediate school in the north of the city.
According to the planning area of the school, Gonglin began to look for housing, the east of the city, the middle of the city and the north of the city are easy to solve, and the three outside the city are also ready to build new schools.
With the increase in population in the south of the city, three schools can still be found.
Only the west of the city remains.
The west of the city is densely populated and needs five schools, and the houses in the west of the city are basically private houses, Gong Lin searched all over the west of the city, and finally found only three courtyards suitable for the school, and he had no choice but to do the remaining two.
Gong Lin came over to see Yang Miao and told him about the situation in the west of the city.
Yang Miao also personally went to the west of the city with Gong Lin, and after being seen, the people along the street knelt down one after another.
Yang Miao personally met with several scholars in the west of the city and told them about it, fortunately, two of the heads of the families were willing to take out their own yards to the head manager to run the school.
Yang Miao was very grateful and said that he wanted this yard, but not for nothing, and used silver to buy it. The head of the Shi family didn't want silver, and he also hoped that he could do something for Jingci City.
In the end, Shang Ziche thought of a compromise and exchanged the houses in other places with the houses here for similar values.
The location of the school is solved, and finally it is the teacher who is going to find him in the autumn and ten years.
After the notice was posted, there were 15 applicants to be Mr. Teach, and after the assessment, 10 were admitted.
When Qiu Shiten was about to ask for help from Shan Zhengmin, Du He came and brought eight gentlemen at the same time.
The initial preparations for the academy were completed, and it took only twenty days, almost two months earlier than expected.
