Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After breakfast, Pan Zhongzhen came over in a hurry, took Zhao Hao to join Liu Zixing and other local gentry, and wandered around Chaozhou City to choose a site.

    Fortunately, it was a cloudy day and there was a rare wind, so Mr. Zhao would not be burned out by the sun.

    According to the fashionable people¡¯s taste, an elegant institution such as an academy should of course be built in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers. In this way, it is not only conducive to learning, but also has good feng shui, so that academic studies can be prosperous.

    ¡°But because of the public security issues in Chaozhou, we didn¡¯t dare to go far away from Fucheng, so we had to stay nearby to ensure the safety of teachers and students.

    Therefore, Liu Zixing recommended three quiet and beautiful locations with good Feng Shui to Zhao Hao.

    One is Jinshan located in the north corner of Fucheng.  Although the mountain is not high, the scenery is very beautiful, and there are still traces of many literati.  Moreover, the mountains are like the back of Fucheng, with Hanshan Mountain in the east, Hulu Mountain in the west, Fenghuang Mountain in the north, and Chengguo Street in the south. The Feng Shui is also the best.

    The other one is located in the West Lake outside the city wall in the northwest of Fucheng. It was originally a tributary of the Han River and stretched for more than ten miles.  In the Tang Dynasty, the North Embankment was built, which cut it off from the Han River and turned it into a large rectangular lake.  This dynasty built Chaozhou City and turned it into a moat.

    There is also a Hulu Mountain beside the West Lake. The mountain is green against the lake, and the lake is surrounded by green mountains. The scenery is naturally excellent.  The "West Lake Fishing Raft", one of the eight scenic spots in Chaozhou, refers to this place.

    Oh, by the way, Jinshan is also one of the eight scenic spots in Chaozhou, euphemistically called ¡®Jinshan Ancient Pine¡¯.

    Mr. Zhao took in the sights of the lakes and mountains, and then came to the third place to choose.  It is also one of the eight scenic spots in Chaozhou, located in Fenghuang Island on the Han River in the southeast of Fucheng.  Known as 'Fengtai Shiyu'.

    Accompanied by everyone, he climbed up to the Phoenix Tower, which is more than ten feet high, and looked far away from the Wangjiang Pavilion. He saw a blue sky, white clouds, and endless peaks in the distance; he looked up close and saw the three mountains surrounding the ancient city; and looked down across the bridge.  The incoming river water divides into two streams when it reaches the head of Fenghuang Island, which is exactly the scene of "three mountains are halfway out of the blue sky, and two rivers are divided into Bailu Island".

    At this time, the breeze was blowing, the river breeze was blowing, and the summer heat was gone. Mr. Zhao was in a good mood and praised this really good place.

    "The sandbank here was originally called Laoya Chau. The former prince visited the island many times and loved its beautiful scenery. He said that this is the place where Phoenix lives, not the place where Laoya falls into the forest, so he changed its name to 'Phoenix Chau'.  ', and built this Phoenix Tower." Liu Zixing, who served as a tour guide, said proudly: "Of course, this Phoenix Tower is mainly used to observe the enemy's situation."

    "Yeah." Zhao Hao nodded and smiled: "Even if there is no enemy, climbing high and looking far can inspire ambition."

    Seeing that Mr. Zhao liked this place, Liu Zixing suggested that the luncheon should be held on the Phoenix Terrace.  Zhao Hao readily agreed, so the accompanying servants filed onto the stage carrying food boxes, tables and chairs, arranged tables, chairs and wine utensils in the Wangjiang Pavilion, and then placed all the exquisite dishes in the food boxes.

    Chaozhou is poor, but the big dog owners are not poor at all. They have special cooking ships with top chefs, complete cooking utensils, and the freshest and most precious ingredients.  It can ensure that the gentry can still have a grand feast anytime and anywhere when traveling.

    ¡°In terms of pure enjoyment, these Chaoshan guys are no worse than the big bucks in Jiangnan.

    ???????????????????????? But it¡¯s too much power to stretch your hips.

    ?????????????????????????????????????? If the whole government does not produce a Jinshi in a few years, it is simply a scumbag, okay?  In the court, the only thing you can do is to be bullied to death!

    So after drinking for three rounds, Liu Zixing couldn¡¯t wait to ask: ¡°I wonder if these three addresses can catch the eyes of the young master?¡±

    "Well, not bad, they are all good." Zhao Hao smiled and nodded, praising: "Chunlan Qiuju, each is good at winning."

    "Then which one should I choose? Does the young master have any regulations?" A group of Jin gentry asked hurriedly.  They had made inquiries recently and found out that the real owner of the Jiangnan Group was the unworthy Sima Yanei.

    "Well, the most troublesome thing for me is the multiple-choice questions." Zhao Hao took a sip of the glutinous rice wine in the cup and said with a smile, "So I want them all, do you want to?"

    "Hooray." Liu Zixing was so shocked that he couldn't help but say, "It's just that the young master wants so much space. Do you have any other arrangements besides running a school?"

    "How could I do such things as selling sheep's heads and selling dog meat?" Zhao Hao shook his head, put down his wine cup and said seriously: "Of course these three places are all used to run schools."

    "Can an academy use it?" A gentleman blurted out: "This Phoenix Continent alone is as big as the city."

    "Who said there is only one academy?" Zhao Hao shook his head and smiled: "In order to quickly reverse the current situation of the local cultural and educational backwardness, our Jiangnan Education Group has created a package of education revitalization plans tailored for Chaozhou Prefecture."

    "A packageeducation revitalization plan?" Liu Zixing and others asked with interest: "What does that mean?"

    ¡°The purpose is to comprehensively improveImprove the cultural level of local scholars and the basic quality of the labor force.  The plan is divided into five parts" Zhao Hao said, raising his right hand, and then clenched his fist and said: "Clench five fingers into a fist, and only when we fight together can we gain strength!  "

    "I would like to hear the details." Everyone hurriedly listened attentively.

    "The first one is the Chaozhou campus of Yufeng Academy that everyone is most concerned about. Since Duke Hou said that this is where the Phoenix lives, then I think this academy will be located on this Phoenix Island, and its name will be  Phoenix Legend Oh no, how about Phoenix Academy?" Zhao Hao began to talk about the treasures.

    "What a name, what a blessing!" A group of Jin gentry raised their hands excitedly and said: "When a golden phoenix flies out of Chaozhou, it is called Phoenix Academy!"

    "And when students go to Fenghuangzhou, they are separated from the glitz and glamor of Fucheng, so they can study with more peace of mind." An old scholar echoed, listening to this, there must be a libertine in the family who is unwilling to concentrate on studying.

    "Of course, in order to ensure the quality of teaching, the threshold of Phoenix Academy is still quite high. But you don't have to worry, our academy also has an affiliated middle school and an affiliated primary school, which is a one-stop education model." Zhao Hao introduced:

    "That is to say, your children will receive the most scientific education from the time they are enlightened. In this way, as long as they can graduate successfully, most of them can study in Phoenix Academy." Zhao Haoden paused and said: "Considering that the children are still  They are small, so they study on a day-school basis. I think it would be good for these two schools to be built in Jinshan."

    ¡°Hoo woah ho woah.¡± A group of Chaozhou gentry were extremely grateful and enthusiastically expressed their willingness to donate to fund their children¡¯s education so as to ensure their children¡¯s degrees.

    ??~~

    "What about the West Lake? What kind of school does the young master want to build?" Liu Zixing asked curiously.

    "Our Jiangnan education has always adhered to the concept of elite education, basic education and vocational education, three arrows at the same time." I heard Mr. Zhao talk about it: "One flower blooming alone is not spring, but a hundred flowers blooming together will fill the garden. Only if Chaozhou people can also  Only when people are literate, knowledgeable, and have higher labor skills can Chaozhou truly change."

    "That's it" The enthusiasm shown by the Jin gentry was not as good as before, and it was obvious that they had no interest in letting a hundred flowers bloom.

    "These free schools for ordinary people are not aimed at cultivating scholars." Zhao Hao suppressed the anger in his heart and said slowly but firmly:

    "You must not be short-sighted. Our practice in Jiangnan has proven that establishing basic education and literacy education is the fastest way to change the poverty and chaos of a place."

    "You are actually not poorer than the rich people in Jiangnan, but why do you still envy Jiangnan? Because the clothing, cultural relics and cultural relics there are more prosperous than in Jiangnan, and the literary talent and style are the best in the country? I think it is more because the food, clothing, housing and transportation there are all exquisite.  . Rouge, gouache, calligraphy, painting, toys, and all kinds of gadgets, everything is available, right?"

    "Haha" Everyone laughed sheepishly, obviously they were touched by what they said.  Place names such as West Lake and Phoenix Terrace are enough to show their admiration for Jiangnan

    "All the beauty in Jiangnan cannot be created and maintained by scholar-bureaucrats alone. We must also rely on skilled craftsmen with cultural accomplishments. We need a broad class of citizens who have a certain level of education, entertainment needs, and a certain amount of spare money. You guys.  Don¡¯t you want Chaozhou to be as prosperous as Jiangnan in ten years?¡± Zhao Hao said in a seductive tone:

    "And who benefits the most from this process? Of course it's all of you. With your perspective, you must understand that a rising tide lifts all boats."

    "Hmm." The big dog owners were finally a little moved, thinking that they couldn't bring down Mr. Zhao's face, so they could just treat it as a good deed.

    "So the purpose of the free school is to cultivate future skilled craftsmen and citizens?" Liu Zixing asked, grasping the key point.

    "Yes, our Jiangnan Group will soon open many factories in Chaozhou. These factories use more advanced production technology and more scientific management methods, and the production efficiency is many times that of traditional workshops. But workers with a certain cultural foundation are needed.  We have to make great efforts to cultivate skilled workers, so this is not only for Chaozhou, but also for ourselves." Zhao Hao said lightly:

    "So a Chaozhou Vocational and Technical School will be established at the foot of Calabash Mountain by the West Lake to train our own skilled craftsmen."

    "That's it." The Jin gentry's eyes lit up one after another. Chaoshan people have an innate sense of money.  From Mr. Zhao's words, they heard a once-in-a-lifetime business opportunity.

    The story of Chao people in the Nanyang has been said, which is ¡®no one is unattended by Chaozhou¡¯. How can these big gentlemen do n¡¯t know that overseas trade can bring wealth?

    In fact, a large part of their family¡¯s wealth comes from ¡®remittances¡¯ from clan members doing business overseas!

    So they all dream of participating in overseas trade.  But the three links of overseas trade are production, transportation and sales.  The first two are also the most profitable production and transportation links. One is monopolized by Jiangnan's industry and commerce, and the other is monopolized by the sea masters and the Folangji people. Neither of them can get involved.

    The tribesmen have no choice but to leave their hometown and go to Nanyang to get a share of overseas sales. On the way back, they may encounter pirates and loot all their hard-earned money.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Listening to what Mr. Zhao means, she said, is Chaozhou also going to be turned into a production base for export goods?

    That is simply what they dream of!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)??Sales.  The first two are also the most profitable production and transportation links.
