    One day later, Sun Yuanqi felt a little better, and the fatigue from the journey was gone, and he began to prepare for the school.  I have never done anything like this before, and now that I have done it, I know all the details.

    When establishing a new school, there must generally be a "xx School Preparatory Committee", and then each person will be in charge of fundraising, land acquisition and demolition, planning and building, recruiting teachers, drafting charters and then, the school  To get up.

    But now, I have nothing, and I am not prepared for anything.  The big words have been released, and the candidates are enthusiastic.  But what about school?  Not even a shadow.  It was said to be preparations, but except for myself, I had more than 80,000 US dollars and 10,000 taels of silver notes, but I had nothing.

    never mind!  Things come the same way.

    Let¡¯s talk about fundraising first.  I still have some money, so I can skip this one first.

    Let¡¯s talk about land acquisition and demolition.  Yes, determine the school address first!  This is the key.

    Do what you say.  He asked Lao Zhao to find a carriage and take Han Qu and Chen Jide with him as student representatives.  As soon as the students heard that they were going to choose a school site, a large group of them cheered and wanted to go.  Sun Yuanqi refused to listen to his dissuasion several times, so he had no choice but to bring Zhou Zongwu, Liu Bin, and Pan Xian with him.  Zhao Jingxing and Zhao Jingfan also wanted to go, but Lao Zhao slapped them back.  Sun Yuanqi thought for a while and took Tong Jingsheng with him.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If there are more students, the leader of the Boxer Boxing and several of his capable men must be brought along as a deterrent force.  Including Lao Zhao, a group of more than ten people left the city through Desheng Gate.  Later universities in Beijing were all located in Haidian District, which is now the northwest corner of Beijing.  The carriage followed the road and headed northwest.

    The first Jishuitan we arrived at was where Beijing Normal University would later be built. Apart from the mass graves, it was just a reed swamp.  Sun Yuanqi shook his head: No, it¡¯s too close to Beijing.  On the one hand, there is not enough room for development; on the other hand, there are big and small things happening in Beijing, and the school will definitely be affected. Doesn't it have too many painful experiences in the past life?  It's better to stay away from this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

    ?? ?Going to Huangzhuang, where Renmin University is located, it is also next to the reed swamp and not far from the capital.  no.

    ?? Blue Flag Camp, where Peking University and Tsinghua University are located, are all royal gardens, and they will not allow themselves to build universities.  Nope either.

    Then to the northwest are the Summer Palace and Old Summer Palace.  After walking around these two gardens, you can see a range of rolling hills.  It was the remnant of Yanshan Mountain. It was early summer, and the peaks were verdant.  It was already noon, we had walked forty or fifty miles, and the sun was shining brightly, so everyone was a little tired.  Seeing this mountain, I immediately felt refreshed.  When we approached the foot of the mountain, there was a sparkling river.  The refreshing cool breeze leaked from the mountains, and everyone shouted "Okay"!

    Everyone found a shady place by the river to rest and eat dry food.  Prepare to rest for a while after eating, and then walk around in pairs to see how it goes.

    Sun Yuanqi distributed the rations to the driver and asked, "Have you been to this place before?"

    The master took the dry food, thanked him quickly, and then said: "I have been to this place before. Because this place is close to Chongzhen Mausoleum, and a little further away there are Xiangshan and Reclining Buddha Temple. But I have never stopped here because there are not many people in this area.  .¡±

    "By the way, how are the land prices in the suburbs of Beijing?" Sun Yuanqi had never been exposed to the rural issues since the Qing Dynasty, so he had no idea about this.

    "That's divided into three, six, and nine levels. There are also good river fields with twenty or thirty taels per acre. Ordinary fertile fields range from 2 or 3 taels to more than ten taels. It's hard to say. As for those leprous fields, one acre is not guaranteed.  It¡¯s only a few hundred coins and a few coins.¡± No Chinese person cares about land prices, no matter which dynasty they are.  Therefore, the coachman has many treasures.

    Sun Yuanqi pointed to the mountainous land in front of him: "How much do you think an acre of this land is worth?"

    "This? If a hectare of land can be sold for ten taels of silver, the landlord should be smiling." The coachman was surprised, "What can be done with this land? It cannot be cultivated or planted."

    Old Zhao also came over, holding a handful of soil in his hand: "Mr. Sun, this land is not good! It is full of sand and gravel, and even grass refuses to grow. Let us in Shandong, this land, give people  No one wants it."

    Sun Yuanqi thought to himself: This is good!  That's good!

    After dinner, everyone had a rest and wandered around in twos and threes.  Sun Yuanqi took Tong Jingsheng and Lao Zhao in a carriage and drove half a circle around the hills. The more they went around, the more satisfied they became.  At that moment, Sun Yuanqi whispered to Lao Zhao and asked Lao Zheng to come forward and ask who the owner of the land was, and then buy the land.

    Back in the city, Sun Yuanqi made up his mind: It seems that this land does not cost much, and the key now is to find a suitable architectural design firm to be responsible for the design and construction.  But there is no rush, after all, the land has not been purchased yet.

    &nHe has a sallow complexion and thin muscles, with not even a ounce of flesh on his body, and his clothes are also revealing. In a nice way, he is called a quail clothes with hundreds of knots, and in a bad way, he is called a tattered figure.  If he is dressed like this and left on the street, some people will believe him if they say he is a beggar and a refugee.

    Sun Yuanqi asked doubtfully: "Are you the landlord of that land?"

    When the man saw Sun Yuanqi, he tremblingly took out the land deed from his arms and replied: "Hui Hui, it's yes, this this is the land deed."

    Sun Yuanqi asked his question: "Then why are you so depressed?"

    "Hey! That's really a child without a mother - it's a long story. We are bannermen, and our ancestors were also rich. When Conglong entered the pass, he owned tens of thousands of hectares of land on the outskirts of Beijing. Later, the family became more and more  If the land is big, the fertile land will be divided piece by piece; as the expenses are getting bigger and bigger, the fertile land will be sold piece by piece. After going back and forth, only this piece of river beach land where rabbits don't poop will be left. Otherwise, this piece of land will not be left.  No one wanted it, so we kept it until today!" Seeing Sun Yuanqi's friendly face, the man stopped stumbling when he spoke, "Since the reign of Guangxu, the money of the bannermen has been getting worse day by day. This is not bad, at least it is still good.  Yes. Last year, Emperor Guangxu and the Queen Mother of the West ran away, and even the small amount of money stopped. But the whole family wanted to eat, so they had to use clothing, household items, and a house in exchange for food. The land deed also  Anyone who wants to pawn them will not be accepted by the pawn shop. If only a few days pass, the whole family will starve to death"

    By the end of the sentence, I wanted to burst into tears.  Sun Yuanqi saw that he was an honest man and did not bully him: "What price do you want to sell that land for?"

    "Sir, we know that the person in charge of your house is Sun Shouzhou Zhongtang. Mr. Zhongtang is a good man, and we can trust his family. If you give me a price, I will sell it." The man was also unambiguous.

    Sun Yuanqi found it difficult to say: "You are the seller, why do you have to set a price?"

    "So, that piece of land is indeed not very good. Previously, the pawn shop also said that the piece of land is full of stones, and no one wants it if it is given away for free. If you want to buy it, just give me a few taels or a dozen taels.  Just silver." The man gritted his teeth and reported the number.

    "Ah?" This price surprised Sun Yuanqi: Isn't this too little?

    Seeing the surprised look on Sun Yuanqi's face, the man burst into tears and knelt down: "Master, this is our last possession. Please reward me with a few taels of silver and make our whole family a starving ghost."  Hell, thank you for your great kindness!"

    "Get up quickly, get up quickly." Sun Yuanqi quickly helped him up, "Then show me the land deed."

    The man wiped his tears and handed the land deed in his hand to Sun Yuanqi.  On some rough paper, the four sides of the border were roughly drawn, and there was a sentence at the end that Sun Yuanqi could see clearly: "It is estimated that the mountain field will be five and a half acres in two thousand five hundred and seventy-one days."

    "Two thousand five hundred and seventy-one days?" Sun Yuanqi looked at it carefully for a long time and confirmed that it was indeed the word "ÈÕ", then asked with some confusion: "What does day mean?"

    "" Old Zheng was stunned when he heard this.

    Sun Yuanqi thought he didn¡¯t understand, so he pointed to the words on the land deed and said, ¡°That¡¯s the word!¡±

    ¡°Oh, six acres a day.¡± The man explained immediately.

    Did this unit of measurement still exist in the Qing Dynasty?  really weird.  Sun Yuanqi thought for a while: "Well, after all, this land was passed down by your ancestors. If it is sold at a low price, it will not only look good to you, but also to me as a buyer. Besides, your whole family depends on this for a living.  I can't watch you sell your land to me and starve in the future. If you want to sell it, I will give you one tael of silver per day, and the fractions will be converted into whole coins, totaling 2,600 taels. You see  Ok?"

    "Twotwo thousand six hundred taelssilver?" The man's mouth was wide enough to fit into his fist.

    "Do you think it's okay?" Sun Yuanqi asked again.

    "Okay! That's great! Thank you, Master! Our whole family will never forget your great kindness" As he said that, the man's tears fell again.

    Old Zheng, who had been standing nearby, spoke up: "If it works, then you can find a few members of your family to be witnesses and go through the formalities! In case you have long nights and lots of dreams."

    The man was like a rabbit, running out to look for someone. After a while, a few people came dragging in.  Sun Yuanqi randomly found a neighbor, the two parties signed a non-sale contract, pressed fingerprints, and had a meal, and the 15,000 acres of land for running the school came to Sun Yuanqi's name.

    In this way, the first step in building the school was finally sold.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
