These ideas were so novel that Zhang Han had never thought of them before, and he couldn't even fully understand Ran Fang's words.
However, he still understood some of the words.
The most important thing is that Ran Fang does not want to make money for himself, but hopes to bring more people with a chance to make money, which is much better than many selfish businessmen.
Thinking like this, he admired Ran Fang even more.
When he returned to the palace to report to Ying Zheng the next day, he couldn't help but praise his words, especially when he mentioned the chain concept mentioned by Ran Fang, he was full of praise.
"Your Majesty, I have already discussed it with the commander, and we will be able to prepare breakfast in a few days."
"Early this morning, I have sent the cooks to the commander's residence. When they are all finished, they can open one in the city and one in the villages outside Xianyang City to see the effect first."
"At that time, the commander's novel model will be widely publicized, and I am afraid that many people will join it. This must be a good thing."
He didn't notice that when he was speaking, Li Si's eyes were about to burst into flames.
Li Si was handling political affairs well in his own palace, and was summoned to the palace by Ying Zheng.
At that time, he thought Ying Zheng was looking for something good from the person's tone, but instead he was told that he wanted to open schools all over the Qin Dynasty, starting with Xianyang City.
Doesn't Ying Zheng know whether there is money in the treasury now?
But judging from Ying Zheng's tone, he was told to pay for this by himself. How could he be willing?
"Your Majesty, this breakfast shop thing is a good thing."
"But this school matter may be a little difficult."
“Guizhou doesn’t even have enough food to eat. How can we have the money to send our children to school?”
"This matter... I'm afraid I can't do anything about it."
Zhang Han, who was chattering endlessly, finally stopped talking, and his thoughts began to follow Li Si's words.
Li Si should be responsible for building a school in Xianyang City. No matter how you look at it, this matter is Ran Fang's handiwork.
From the beginning of the scientific examination to the subsequent visit to the library, Zhang Han knew that Ran Fang would not let this matter go so easily, but he did not expect that he would have so many "ambitions."
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, building a school is a good thing."
"When His Majesty implemented the imperial examination system, wasn't it just to allow the head of Guizhou Province to enter the court?"
"It's only fair to give them a chance now."
Li Si knew that Zhang Han was looking towards Ying Zheng and was not surprised at all by his words.
But seeing how he said it so lightly, it was inevitable that he felt a little angry.
But he is also an old man in the court and will not be angry because of Zhang Han's words.
There was an expression on his face that was half a smile but not a smile. He glanced at Zhang Han lightly, but looked at Ying Zheng persistently and said softly: "Your Majesty, what Mr. Zhang said makes sense."
"But after all, this matter is of great importance. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to do it on my own."
"Since Mr. Zhang said this just now, I guess Mr. Zhang also has his own opinions on school affairs."
"In this case, it would be better to let Master Zhang Han take charge of the school. It would be a good thing."
"I wonder what Mr. Zhang thinks?"
After being defeated by Li Si, Zhang Han was speechless for a moment.
This kind of thing is thankless and he doesn't want to participate.
"The Prime Minister is joking. I'm preparing breakfast now, so I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it."
"If the Prime Minister has any questions about this matter, it would be better to go to the commander's house and ask Ran Fang. I believe he can give the Prime Minister some suggestions."
"By then, the Prime Minister will no longer have these worries."
Ying Zheng sat on the high platform and nodded, agreeing with Zhang Han's words, with a smile in his eyes.
As a result, Li Si couldn't say anything more.
It's just that I'm still a little unhappy in my heart, but it's hard to show it.
"I accept the decree."
When Li Si came out of the palace with Zhang Han, Li Si looked at Zhang Han with a heavy look at him.
He was walking in front of Zhang Han and suddenly stopped.
"Master Zhang, you are quite scheming."
Zhang Han, who was focused on walking, suddenly stopped and almost accidentally bumped into Li Si.
He raised his head and looked at Li Si with very calm eyes, as if he didn't take Li Si's words to heart at all.
"I don't quite understand what the Prime Minister said."
"It's just that in my opinion, it is most appropriate for the Prime Minister to do this."
"After all, I have heard that the prime minister has a good relationship with those salt merchants. It has been so long and they have not left Xianyang City. I don't know what they are waiting for."
"If they were to provide the money, I guess the school affairs would be very simple, right?"
"What do you think, Prime Minister?"
Hearing Zhang Han mention the words "salt merchant", Li Si's eyes changed slightly.
However, it only returned to normal in an instant.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Zhang Han with a strong threat.
"Why can't I understand this?"
"Those salt merchants are in the city, I'm afraid they just have something to do."
"As far as I know, Rong Ming and Ran Fang are cooperating in business. Is it inevitable that other salt merchants have no friendship with Ran Fang?"
"There are some things that Master Zhang should not say easily, or you may bring trouble to yourself!"
The last sentence contained a strong threat.
Zhang Han seemed to have not heard it, and the expression on his face relaxed and smiled.
He originally just received news that the salt merchant had been staying in the city and was still communicating secretly in private, so he asked people to monitor them.
But he found that there were other people paying attention to the salt merchant, so he guessed that there must be something wrong with the salt merchant.
While he was asking people to investigate who was spying, he also wanted to see who those people were connected to in the city.
But he didn't expect that there would be a very obscure clue pointing to Li Si. Although he didn't believe it, he still had someone investigate, but nothing was found.
He didn't believe that the clue was for no reason, so he wanted to test Li Si. When he saw the defensive expression on Li Si's face just now, he knew that his guess was right.
I just don’t know what Li Si and the salt merchants are plotting.
"That's natural."
"Since the Prime Minister said so, I will naturally not ask for trouble."
"I just hope that the Prime Minister can handle the school affairs well and not let down His Majesty's wishes."
"I will leave first."
Looking at Zhang Han's leaving figure, Li Si showed a dangerous look in his eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person.
He looked back at the palace and knew that Zhang Han probably didn't tell Ying Zheng about the matter and wanted to investigate it himself, but he didn't know if he would have the chance.
"Huh, you're just a kid, but you want to find out about me."
"I didn't do those things, so what if you can find out?"
"It just so happens that this incident in the school has given me an excuse..."
"Ran Fang, let me meet you."
