Zheng Guo wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was a little tired on the way here. Now after he sat down, the sweat began to appear.
But this action fell in the eyes of others, because of Ran Fang's words, which put pressure in his heart and even broke into a cold sweat.
He didn't know what he was thinking. After wiping away the sweat, he looked at Ran Fang with very sincere eyes.
Then, he slowly said: "This matter... happened too suddenly, I didn't think about it well."
"I wonder if the commander has any suggestions?"
Although his tone was sincere, his actions gave people a feeling of guilty conscience.
But after several contacts with Ran Fang, although he didn't know much about Zheng Guo, he felt that this person was still very sincere.
Seeing him like this now, coupled with his first sentence just now, made him feel that Zheng Guo was not afraid of him, right?
However, he did not change his expression, but his tone was slightly better.
"Since it is your Majesty's responsibility, I can't interfere."
"But since it is to benefit the world and the people of Qin, it cannot increase the burden of life in Guizhou."
"Therefore, this book cannot cost money, so that people will be willing to read the book. Otherwise, they cannot even meet the basic needs of life, and who will spend money to read the book?"
"But if that's the case, and if those old people from the Six Nations deliberately provoke disputes, then this good thing will also turn into a bad thing."
"Am I right?"
Hearing this, both Chun Yuxian and Zheng Guo had expressions of admiration.
Chun Yuxian was surprised by Ran Fang's clear mind and his ability to take into account the sufferings in Guizhou. At that time, he only thought about using the doctors' classics to cure diseases and save people, but he never thought about whether they would be willing to use money in exchange for these opportunities?
For some truly poor families, the problem in their lives is not illness, but their inability to change themselves or make money.
Therefore, asking them to spend money to see a doctor for themselves and increase their knowledge is simply a fantasy.
"Master is so righteous that I can't think of these problems."
Zheng Guo admired Ran Fang's thorough understanding of things, and he expressed all the concerns of the ministers in the court in a few words.
After their discussion last night, Ran Fang had already thought of this. From what he said, it seemed that he already had a solution and also proposed the concept of free reading.
"This is indeed a problem, and the ministers in the government also said so."
"But this problem is very contradictory. How to solve it?"
"Your Majesty is probably worried about this, so he said that some books should not be taken out, and only some books that would not have any impact should be taken out."
"But if they are really insignificant books, I don't think they have much meaning."
"Moreover, if the books are to be read free of charge in Guizhou Province, if too many books are made, the cost will increase, and there will be no income. It is really inappropriate."
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid you won't agree."
Ran Fang nodded. The two people sitting in front of him really cared about the well-being of the Qin Dynasty and the lives of the people.
If all the officials in the world were like them, why would the Qin Dynasty worry about not being rich and strong?
As for Qianshou, I'm afraid they don't have to struggle in poverty anymore.
"Nowadays, the national treasury is not rich. If it is really free, not everyone can take it. How many books are needed to satisfy it?"
"And we have to avoid people with bad intentions, so we have to solve two problems together, that is to find a fixed place where people can read books for free."
"So, we might as well build a library and let people register their names and addresses when they come to read the book."
"This library can also be divided into various districts. People with different needs can find the books they are interested in and sit in the library to read them for free."
"In order to prevent someone from not wanting to read the book, points can also be made. Everyone can record how long they have read. At the end of each month, the people who have read the book for the longest time will be announced and given some rewards."
"In this way, people will naturally read the book when they have free time. If someone steals the book or practices the contents in the book, they can be found."
"What do you think? Is this method feasible?"
Chun Yuxian and Zheng Guo looked at each other, looking at Ran Fang with some enthusiasm.
Especially for Zheng Guo, he didn't expect that Ran Fang would solve the problem with just a few words, even after racking his brains.
At this moment, he was extremely lucky to have arrived at the commander's residence so early, otherwise he would have been unable to sleep for several days when he returned to his own residence.
"good!"
"My lord, this method is very good!"
"In this way, the books of each family can be displayed, and students from each family can also admire the grace of their ancestors."
"It's just...this book is free, will your Majesty agree?"
"There is also Brother Chunyu's medical skills. If you just don't learn them, I'm afraid it will be difficult to practice them, right?"
"How should this be handled?"
For them, the significance of this library is too advanced. Even if they can accept Ran Fang's proposal, some things still cannot be done.
It was like a free thing, and Zheng Guo was worried that His Majesty would blame him for this matter.
Ran Fang saw his concerns and said directly: "It can be sold."
"If Qian Shou is willing to spend money to buy some books that won't have much impact and study them, they can naturally be sold."
"The library can be divided into two doors, one for entry and one for exit. Then a bookshelf will be set up at the exit. If someone likes a book, they can choose it on the bookshelf and then buy it."
"You can discuss with the young master about which books we can produce more of."
"Isn't Meng Yi in charge of the affairs of the Young Mansion? You can just discuss it with him when the time comes."
Zheng Guo thought about what Ran Fang had just said, and said "entry in and exit". This was the first time he had heard of this practice.
When he builds this library, he will probably shock some people.
Moreover, His Majesty will definitely praise him. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile, and the beads of sweat on his forehead disappeared.
"Okay, okay!"
"Thank you Commander!"
"I will go back and find someone to make a good plan for the library, and then leave this matter to His Majesty for your decision!"
"When the time comes, I will definitely inform Your Majesty that this is the commander's wish, and I will ask you to reward the commander for his merits."
After teaching so many people, he was the first person to propose giving all the credit to himself in front of Ran Fang.
Looking at Zheng Guo, he was very pleased, and he had indeed seen him correctly.
"No need."
"If this matter can be accomplished, it will be a great blessing for my country, the Qin Dynasty. All the credit belongs to Your Majesty."
Hearing what Ran Fang said, Zheng Guo finally understood the gap between Ran Fang and veterans like them.
"It's my villain's heart."
"However, this matter still needs to be reported to His Majesty."
Ran Fang didn't say anything this time. He would naturally not refuse what Ying Zheng should know.
Zheng Guo didn't pay attention to Ran Fang's expression. After he finished speaking, he asked again: "I still have something unclear. I want to ask the commander why he asked someone to give me a chair?"
"I have never done anything, but I have received such a great favor from my husband. I feel really uneasy."
Ran Fang was a little surprised. He didn't worry about the affairs of Liuguang Pavilion, so naturally he didn't know about it.
"What?"
"How come I don't know?"
