Su Wan's idea is simple. If there are too many people in the academy, it will naturally be noisy. For students who are facing the imperial examination, a quiet learning environment is the most important.
In this way, the academy can be divided into two parts. One part is at the foot of the original mountain. In the future, nearby children can come here to study and learn calligraphy. When they grow older, they can go to the academy on the mountain to study.
The academy at the foot of the mountain is also divided into several parts, including classrooms, dining halls, and places where boarding students live. The dining hall is unified at the foot of the mountain. The academy on the mountain does not have a dining hall. Anyway, the distance is not far, just a few steps away. , just think of it as exercising.
The academy at the foot of the mountain is not big, just a large courtyard with four buildings in the east, west, north and south. In the middle of each building is a smaller room for teachers to rest on weekdays. On both sides are classrooms for lectures.
As for the place where students live, a place is circled on the edge, and a small courtyard is built. The intervals between the rooms are similar to those of modern dormitories. If there are too many students in the future, they can be transformed into upper and lower courtyards. Bed form.
In addition, there is a row of eight small shops in the academy. The shops are open in the academy and sell some pens, inks, paper, inkstones, books and other items. A few shops will be built at the entrance of the academy first, and we will see the situation later. Add more.
There is an open space next to the teaching courtyard and the courtyard where students live, so there is no pressure to build additional buildings in the future.
A courtyard of similar size was designated on the mountainside for teaching, as well as a courtyard for students to live in. The two academies were connected by a long step from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside.
The place where the gentlemen live is a row of small courtyards built in an open space on the other side of the mountainside. After all, most of the gentlemen are raising families and it is impossible to live in a courtyard like that of students.
In this era, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and mountainous areas like this are not very valuable. There is no need to worry about the lack of space. Moreover, these are the Shi family's own mountains and forests, and you can enclose them at will.
Li Lin looked at her divisions on the map and listened to what she said. He nodded lightly. In fact, the academy is almost like this. Academy, accommodation, and dining halls all depend on how the land is enclosed. As long as there are not too many Questions are all ok.
He left things to her just to let her find something she liked to do.
"Add a courtyard behind the two academies. The courtyard will be as big as before. Let's build a library next to it. The rest is fine. The building is a little smaller, but it is enough."
Su Wan paused: "If we add another courtyard, I'm afraid it will cost a lot more, and the library is not easy to maintain. It would be embarrassing if there was only a library but no books."
The main reason is to consider the issue of cost. The academy for teaching and the courtyard for students to live cannot be saved, but for the library, if you can save it, save it first.
Although it is said that the design is free of charge, she can't do it randomly. She always has to consider practical issues.
"It doesn't matter, I'll pay for it."
Su Wan: "?!"
Su Wan was shocked: "You paid for it? Funded to build the academy?"
Li Lin's expression remained calm: "It's not really a big deal. If we want to raise money, the Shi family may have to put in a lot of money. If the academy doesn't run well, life may be difficult for a long time." "
"I just wanted to ask the Shi family to raise half, and I'll provide the other half." Although he wanted to help, he didn't want the Shi family to pick up a ready-made product without any effort. .
"My mother was born in the Shi family, and she also hopes that the Shi family will be well, so I will do my last for her."
When I arrived at his place, I still remembered my maternal uncle, who was a close relative by blood, but further down the line he became estranged. If he lived close by, he could still walk around, and he was a relative, but if he was far away, I would probably know these people in this life. , The feelings are weak, and the intentions are hard to say.
For example, he himself only remembers where his grandmother's natal family came from. Because they are too far away, he has never seen her before.
Su Wan nodded: "You can do whatever you want, but as for the library, the books will cost a lot of money."
"As for the books, I just ask people to find some, and it only takes some time. As long as I don't look for those orphan books to collect, it also costs a lot. I get the same books, and then let the academy spend some pen and ink money to ask the students of the academy to copy ten Just a few copies will do.”
"Some of the unique books handed down from ancient times can be copied, and some can also be copied and put in."
Su Wan thought his idea was feasible: "Then let's add a library. Speaking of which, it's a bit awkward for an academy to not even have a library. By the way, maybe we can discuss this matter with Hongyan Academy. "
Previously, Stone Bridge Academy gave Hongyan Academy a chance to breathe. As it should, Hongyan Academy cannot refuse to provide convenience to Stone Bridge Academy. If it refuses, it will be a betrayal and ruthless burning of bridges.
"By the way, doesn't Mrs. Sun Er have a lot of books? Ask someone to ask if they can get a copy of her book collection." Although Su Wan has never met Mrs. Sun Er, he has an impression of her. It's really not good.
She likes to collect books and read and is a bookworm. She doesn't have any objections, but she heard that Mrs. Sun Er could actually borrow books from other people's collections without returning them, and even said that people didn't cherish the books and didn't use them for other purposes. The most correct place.
Su Wan herself has many orphan books. Although she is a layperson and does not understand the eagerness of collectors, she knows that these things are valuable and are the legacy of her ancestors. They are very precious things. Money cannot buy time.
If someone came to snatch her things for a high-sounding reason, she would definitely fall out.
"I'll talk to my uncle."
"good."
Su Wan erased the strokes in his hand, and then re-drawn them with a carving pen. The carving pen was called a carving pen, but it was actually similar to a modern mechanical pencil.
The pen body is made of small bamboo, and there is a refill inside. It is very close to a modern refill, but it is not as small as a mechanical pencil. It is about the size of a 2B pencil refill, and it also sheds some powder when used. , but compared to the brush, it is already very good.
It also comes with a cloth that can wipe off handwriting, and I am really satisfied with it.
As the evening meal approached, Su Wan almost laid out the general structure of the academy. The academy on the mountainside was called Taoshan Academy, and the academy at the foot of the mountain was called Lushan Academy, thus distinguishing the two courtyards.
She also arranged some plants in each yard, and the first draft was still in style.
"Not bad." Li Lin was a little surprised. Originally, he wanted to leave this matter to her and let her pass the time, but he didn't expect that she was quite capable and had a lot of ideas.
If so, things can be settled in two days.
