Outside the West Courtyard, Yang Cheng had to buy another piece of wasteland next to it in order to establish a winery.

Unlike before, the scale of the distillery was very large from the beginning. In the past, things were hindered by financial problems, and the scale could only be expanded a little bit, but now it is different, I have money in my hands, I don't panic, and I have to do things with a lot of atmosphere.

In the past, there were some industries that were not suitable for trade between city-states. For example, staple food, which is not conducive to preservation, cannot be produced locally, and it takes another half a month to be delivered to nearby city-states. Of course, snacks are OK, but they are not yet on a large scale, and I don't know how far they are delivered, so it would be very good to be able to develop consumption habits in Xianwuzhou City.

But wine is different, so it is easy to store and transport. Therefore, at the beginning, he considered laying the liquor industry wider, and the personnel were allocated according to the scale of 500 people as soon as they got started.

The porcelain container that Le Yin Gong tried to make was used to make wine bottles. He designed high, low, and medium grade containers, and when they were fired, they had to have the name of the wine, as well as the words of Yangmen Distillery, which was conducive to building the brand. Le Yin Gong has already paid a deposit of 10,000 yuan, and the sample has also come out, just waiting for him to order batch production.

And he has just built a factory here, with a soaking pool, a large iron pot, and a fermentation tank. But especially the equipment for distilling alcohol, he is still trying it out with the blacksmith in the furniture workshop, and it has not been completely completed, after all, no one understands this technology, so he can only put forward a general idea and let the blacksmiths try it repeatedly. It is estimated that he will have more than a month to try making wine, but he is not in a hurry and has time to try. He believes that the power of high-grade liquor will definitely make the eyes of those who are used to drinking turbid rice wine shine.

The industry in front of him did not compete with anyone, and this was a strategy of low-key development. However, the advent of high-grade liquor will compete with almost all the liquor industry, and it will inevitably provoke some wealthy families, and he needs to be prepared to deal with it. In addition to the strength of the family, the distillation equipment and brewing process are also important secrets to protect.

Standing on the top of the back mountain, looking down on the entire Yang family, Yang Cheng couldn't help but think that now the expansion of the entire Yang family is almost one-fifth of the back mountain. If it expands further, it will eventually surround the back mountain. At that time, he had to spend a lot of money to buy the title deed of Houshan and become the private land of the Yang family. In this way, many houses and facilities can be built against the mountain, much like the size of the big family in the mouth of the white twilight cloud.

At present, Houshan has only purchased a small land deed and used it to build a college.

At present, the academy is about to start operating, and it is named "Yuhua Academy" by him.

Yuhua Academy is built according to the planning of Yangcheng: it is built on a mountainous terrain, overlooking the Yang family, and the environment is quiet. In addition to the teaching buildings for classes, there are also dormitories and student dormitories on both sides. There is also a large square with a floor in the middle, and a fountain above it. Fountains are scattered in the pool like rain flowers. He also specially designed some gardening in the academy, and the scenery is not bad.

The students who were hired were extremely satisfied, and they all praised this as a holy place for reading and educating people.

There were as many as 600 children sent by each workshop, which Yang Cheng did not expect, but fortunately, the scale he planned could accommodate nearly 1,000 people. It seems that with the establishment of the distillery, I am afraid that there will be an additional building for teaching.

The academy is temporarily short of talents, and Yang Cheng can only serve as the dean himself, and fifteen teachers are responsible for teaching literacy, arithmetic, scientific examinations and other courses. Only by waiting for the performance to be seen in the future, then the college administrators will be selected from among these teachers.

On the day of the opening of the hospital, except for the parents of each family, they came to visit. Yang Cheng also invited Lu Baichuan, Liu Changqing, and Bai Duyun, who was wrapped in a cloth towel, as well as two friends, Le Yingong and Zhu Bumiao, to visit.

Liu Changqing and the three of them were well-informed, but they were instinctively curious about what Yang Cheng had made, so they decided to join in the fun. The three of them were also very low-key, and took a tour in the middle of the crowd.

The college should pay for it, including accommodation and food, which is free of charge, which really makes the parents of the children very happy, and they all smile.

Looking at these children at the bottom, Le Yin Gong and Zhu Bufu were full of emotion, and they were deeply impressed and appreciated Yang Cheng's behavior. As businessmen, the two of them knew in their hearts that this was not just a good deed. It is a long-term investment, and among these children, perhaps some will become officials and some will become business leaders due to scientific research in the future. These possible opportunities were created by Yang Cheng. In the hearts of the children who go out here every year, there will be the mark of "Yuhua Academy", or the mark of the Yang family in Nanqiu.

That being said, but with such foresight and such generosity, there are a few businessmen who can do it.

However, others see it from a different angle, they see that only Yang Cheng is willing to spend energy and resources on the children of these low-level families.

Lu Baichuan didn't feel strange about what Yang Cheng did, and even felt that it was possible for him to do something special, and he had already felt numb from repeated surprises. On the contrary, Liu Changqing, a strong man who is usually unrestrained and cynical, today he went against the normal state of laughing and scolding on weekdays, and fell into a deep silence.

Bai Duyun knew that he knew the family style, but he felt that he couldn't see through Yang Cheng, the little family leader.

Running a school is a good thing to do good and accumulate virtue, but Yang Cheng's thinking is not to be a virgin. Everything he does takes into account the interests of many parties, not only to bring benefits to these families, so that their descendants have the opportunity to turn around, but also to closely link them to his interests. Although these ordinary people lived a humble life in the cultivation realm, he understood that the world was actually created by them at the bottom.

In addition, the more he does things now, the more he finds that there is a shortage of talents, and a capable Steward Su is already lacking in skills. Even Xiao Wu, who has only followed him for two or three months, has already driven ducks to the shelves. In the future, if he wants to reach farther, he will need more talented and loyal people.

He can be trained to become a warrior, a merchant, an official, and no matter how poor he is, he can also become a manager or technician of the workshop. In the future, no matter how far the people of the academy go, they will carry the imprint of his Yang family. The return is far greater than what he is investing now.

In addition to the regular college courses, he also specially added business courses, selected some students with this understanding, and invited Zhu Bufu and Le Yingong to occasionally talk about his business experience. The two deeply feel that they are not only helping friends, but also doing good deeds and accumulating virtues, and they do not shirk.

In addition, he also instructed the family lineage martial artists, Zhong Qiang and others, to carefully screen among these children, but if they have good qualifications, they can teach the method of cultivation separately. Even if Zhong Qiang is their descendant, he is not shy about it, and asks them to bring out a group of young warriors who are loyal to the Yang family to inject fresh blood into the Yang family.

Zhong Qiang and the others are naturally actively leading the order, although this process will take a long time and it will be difficult to achieve results in the short term, but this is a good thing to enrich the strength of the Yang family. Only when the Yang family is strong, they will have a better future, and the old thing of being separated from their relatives will no longer happen.
