Yes, there is no better way to understand a situation than to see it.
Emperor Hongzhi stood up, looked at Zhang Sheng and Ma Wensheng and said, "Let's go, come with me and take a walk."
Emperor Hongzhi walked out of the county government office, and the guards surrounded him on three levels inside and three levels outside.
Not far from the county government office, as expected, the sound of reading could be heard in the distance.
Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s eyes lit up, he looked back and glanced at Liang Min.
Liang Min followed Ouyang Zhi step by step.
And Ouyang Zhi is just like Fang Jifan's tail.
I have never seen a teacher for so long. I met today. Although the method of meeting each other is a little weird, there are many people, and they are not good at complaining.
Fang Jifan followed the footsteps of Emperor Hongzhi.
He looked down at his feet, stepping on the shadow of Emperor Hongzhi. The shadow moved forward a step, and he followed suit. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, His Majesty is really walking like a dragon. He is indeed worthy of being the first emperor after Emperor Taizu Gao to even walk. They're all so cool.
In front of you is a huge academy.
The reason why it is described as huge is because an academy actually covers an area of ??dozens of acres. Although it is not grand, it is very large in scale.
Outside the academy, there is a stone tablet with academic rules set on it.
After that, there is a plaque reading "Rongcheng Mengxuetang".
Liang Min introduced: "This was built by merchants in the county. It covers an area of ??67 acres and costs an astonishing amount. It hired 132 teachers and accommodated as many as 3,000 scholars. This is It is the largest academy in the county. There is another, smaller academy in the south of the city. In addition, there are three more on the outskirts of the city"
"Merchants are also interested in education?" Emperor Hongzhi looked surprised.
Zhang Sheng and Ma Wensheng looked at each other.
The layout inside is very compact. The bookstores are lined up one after another. There is not much scenery. The bookstores are divided into grades, and children of different grades study in different places.
Some of the teachers wearing silk turbans and silk scarves are teaching children to read in the bookstore, and someare still preparing lessons or taking a rest.
Hearing that the Holy Master had arrived, the dean of the academy hurriedly brought out a group of idle teachers, thirty or forty of them, and bowed down in fear.
Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but look at Liang Min: "Liang Qing's family hasn't answered my question yet."
"Your Majesty merchants are naturally interested in education, because children have to pay tuition fees when they enroll in school."
"Oh." Emperor Hongzhi nodded.
Liang Min added: "The tuition fee collected by this school in one year is as high as 20,000 taels. In addition, the county will also provide some subsidies, which is about 20,000 taels a year. In this way, The annual income is 50,000 taels of silver. Taking into account the expenses, this academy alone has a net profit of 20,000 taels of silver."
Emperor Hongzhi looked surprised, reading you still make money?
Fang Jifan couldn't help but glance at Liang Min, this scumbag, can you talk? Who taught you?
Fang Jifan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I think money is the second most important thing, and the most important thing is teaching and educating people."
Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "Not bad."
Zhang Sheng looked at it with interest: "Not necessarily."
"What?" Emperor Hongzhi and Fang Jifan, two people who had escaped from vulgar taste, couldn't help but look at Zhang Sheng.
Zhang Sheng said enthusiastically: "Your Majesty, the so-called prosperity in the world is all for profit. There is no reason to forget about studying. When I was young, because my family had quite a lot of money, my father established a clan school, which also needed to be spent. , because the people recruited are the children of the clan, so the expenses are all hidden."
Zhang Sheng then said: "But think about it, Your Majesty, if the school can't maintain the expenses, then wouldn't those gentlemen who are teaching be miserable? Most of these people are unsatisfactory scholars. Although they have fame and fame, it is difficult for them to do so." He was active but not engaged in production, and his family was in poverty, so life was not easy. I remember that the old man who gave me enlightenment had a very difficult life. Even if someone gave him two eggs, he would treasure them. It¡¯s so bad that I can¡¯t bear to eat it.¡±
"If such a large-scale academy can make a profit, I see that all these teachers are useless. Think about it, life will be easy." After Zhang Sheng said this, he stepped forward and asked a kneeling teacher: "How dare you Ask Gao¡¯s surname.¡±
The teacher was startled and said hurriedly: "My surname is Zhang."
"Mr. Zhang." Zhang Sheng smiled: "You and I are still from the same family. I wonder how much you will be paid if you are here, sir?"
Zhang ?His face turned red with excitement. After a few days of visiting, he suddenly discovered that there was a golden avenue in front of him.
In front of him, there is Fang Jifan, Ouyang Zhi, Liang Min, and even many young and capable people who cannot be named.
Emperor Hongzhi said: "Fang Jifan has made great achievements, Ouyang Qing's family has made great achievements through hard work, and the other officials in Baoding Prefecture have also made outstanding achievements. I am very pleased that Xincheng can achieve such a small success!"
He took a deep breath: "Xiao Banban, where is he?"
Xiao Jing came out sourly, bowed his head and whispered: "My slave is here."
Emperor Hongzhi closed his eyes: "Give me a decree, Baoding Mansion, be listed as a model, Ouyang Zhi, be promoted to governor"
"The governor" Zhang Sheng was stunned: "Your Majesty, this is the capital of the capital, how did you come to be the governor?"
Emperor Hongzhi said loudly: "If I say there is, there will be!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
