Ten miles outside the capital, there is a place at the foot of a green mountain.
Qingshan has no name, so Yang Dong named Qingshan Lanxiang Mountain.
Although the name sounds a bit weird, Yang Dong thinks it is very reasonable.
Isn’t it unreasonable to have Lanxiang Academy at the foot of Lanxiang Mountain?
At this moment, although the door of Lanxiang Academy at the foot of Lanxiang Mountain is still closed, many students have gathered in front of the door.
They were either holding classics in their hands and reciting loudly; or they were leaning against a tree, closing their eyes and meditating; some even got interested and actually gathered together to play with crickets.
"Do you think Lanxiang Academy is really as good as advertised?"
A scholar stirred up the topic, and other students immediately joined the discussion.
"I think that Lanxiang Academy is probably not worthy of its name. Although it is backed by the imperial palace, its foundation is still shallow after all. And isn't the academy the most indispensable thing in the capital of our great Zhou Dynasty?"
After hearing this, many students nodded in agreement with this view, but some also raised objections.
"I don't think so. As we all know, it is true that there are many academies in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but I would like to ask you, among so many academies, are there any academies that do not restrict one's origin?"
"this……"
As soon as these words came out, a look of hesitation flashed across many people's faces.
Although I don’t know if Lan Xiang Academy is deceiving everyone. But just because this does not limit the origin, it is already a precedent.
And this is why so many children from poor families gather here.
Others may not know it, but only the children from poor families know in their hearts that if they want to get ahead, they must either find a good teacher and study hard for ten years; or they can participate in the imperial examinations held every three years and strive for more fame. body.
However, no matter which of these two paths you take, it is not easy and requires a lot of capital.
But the problem is, they all come from a poor family, how can they spend so much money at once?
So at this time, Lanxiang Academy was born.
No restrictions on identity or age. As long as you can pass the college exam, you can join Lanxiang College.
Moreover, food and accommodation are taken care of without any fees.
Many children from poor families admitted that they were moved.
No matter how good the reputation of Lanxiang Academy is, they are still a bit wary.
But when they thought that behind this place was the person on the dragon throne, they all felt relieved.
at the same time,
In the academy,
Yang Dong stood on Lanxiang Mountain, looking at the scene outside the academy door.
Yao Jia stood on tiptoes, put a long gown on him, and said worriedly:
"Mr. Yang, let's go back quickly. It's very cold here, and it will inevitably hurt your body if you stay here for a long time."
Yang Dong shook his head slightly, his eyes always falling on the students outside the gate of Lanxiang Academy.
"Don't panic, don't panic, let me observe carefully."
"If that old dog Lin Chunqiu wants to target me, he will definitely not let go of the God-given opportunity of opening Lanxiang Academy."
"In this case, Lin Chunqiu's people are hiding among these students."
Thinking of this, he looked at it carefully again.
He just stared at a cup of tea, but didn't find anything unusual.
Sure enough, Lin Chunqiu, an old dog, still has some skills!
Yang Dong pursed his lips in interest, and a bright light began to shine in his eyes.
Very good, it’s pretty well hidden, right?
Wait, I will never let your conspiracy succeed!
Yang Dong secretly made up his mind, then raised his head and looked at the time.
Calculating the time, it's almost the auspicious time.
Just as he was about to speak, the door of Lanxiang Academy made a dull sound.
Then, with the push of teachers and classmates, this dull door gradually opened towards the students.
Such a majestic scene immediately made all the students present wide-eyed.
They have seen many academies, but who would build such a heavy door when building an academy? I'm afraid the gates at the entrance to the capital are not as strong as this!
As for the interior decoration of the academy,
The moment they stepped into Lanxiang Academy, they were completely immersed in it.
Different from the traditional black and white freehand style academy, the construction of Lanxiang Academy uses the latest cement made by Yang Dong.
It is precisely because of the presence of cement that the entire Lanxiang Academy has been built with a majestic appearance. The angular straight lines are matched with the iconic columns from the ancient Roman period.
It can be said that the architectural design of Lanxiang Academy, in a sense, has surpassed some of the current times.
Even compared to the Forbidden City, they are no different. It can be said that each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
"Is this...really the academy?"
Looking at the huge and shocking scene in front of them, Zhao Yu and his group, who were the first to enter the door, expressed their yearning and surprise for Lan Xiang Academy.
With such a grand atmosphere, what if the teaching staff is weaker?
Besides, Your Majesty has invested so much money into it, and he will definitely not let it go to waste.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the cheeks of Zhao Yu and the others.
With the same mentality as them, there were also the second wave of Sun Qi and others, as well as other students who came here because of their reputation.
After seeing the academy, most of them unconsciously had a smile on their cheeks.
This place is really nice!
Unfortunately, joining the academy still requires an exam.
However, what they didn't know was that just half an hour later, the most painful experience in their lives was about to occur.
After sorting the seats, Yang Dong personally handed the test papers to the teachers in the academy.
The teachers waited for a moment, and then uniformly handed out the test papers in their hands.
What the candidates couldn't figure out was that every time the teacher handed out the test papers, there would be a weird smile on his face.
"The exam lasts for one hour, please answer as soon as possible."
Only an hour?
Many students had a look of surprise on their faces.
When they take exams on weekdays, they usually take at least three hours to answer questions.
This is only an hour, which is not enough!
But since it was Lanxiang Academy’s independent proposition, they couldn’t say anything.
As a result, many candidates came to their senses and focused all their attention on the test paper.
It was okay not to look at it, but when they looked at it, they were completely dumbfounded.
Because the content on the test paper is not the usual poems and songs, or some celebrity quotes and editorials.
What was lying on their test papers at this moment were one after another arithmetic questions that made people go crazy just looking at them.
"There are pheasants and rabbits in a cage today. There are thirty-five heads on top and ninety-four legs on the bottom. How many pheasants and rabbits are there?"
"Today there is something whose number I don't know. When I count three or three, there are two left. When I count five or five, there are three left. When I count seven or seven, there are two left. What is the geometry of the object?"
Some people died, but not completely...
