Not to mention that more and more students gathered at the door and showed no sign of dispersing.
Not to mention that the masters of various sects looked at the empty classrooms in front of them and were so angry that they held their chests and rolled their eyes...
Anyway, Xiong Wuliang and Le Yi, led by Huang Xie, successfully entered the main building of the academy and arrived at Huang Xie's study.
The decoration here is simple - after Huang Xie has been running the academy for such a long time, he seems to have lost all the bad habits common to aristocratic young masters, and instead looks more and more like his poor students.
It is simple but not extravagant.
Good at practice and too lazy to talk.
Xiong Wuliang followed Huang Xie with a smile. When Huang Xie wasn't paying attention, he reached out and touched Huang Xie's head: "Little boy, you have grown taller again."
"Very good, very good... Our Huang Xie is a big boy now, right?"
Huang Xie was so caught off guard that his head was touched, and his lungs almost exploded with anger!
Blanch!
This damn Xiong Wuliang is so hateful!
Little boy?
Where is the labor shortage? Why don't we go to the bathroom and sign with each other?
Every time we meet, we have to talk about labor and capital because of our young age... You are not even a few years older than me, okay?
Huang Xie turned around and glared at Xiong Wuliang. All the bad memories came to his mind at this moment...
Le Yi couldn't help laughing when he saw the funny scene in front of him, and almost laughed out loud.
Xiong Wuliang laughed: "This is Huang Xie, the head of the academy, and this is the famous Lord Chang Guo Le Yi... You all met at the dinner party a few days ago."
Le Yi smiled and bowed his hands to Huang Xie. The latter barely suppressed his anger and gave Xiong Wuliang a vicious look. Then he calmed down and saluted the former.
Le Yi suppressed a smile and carefully looked at Huang Xie in front of him...
Tsk tsk, he does look like a child with a yellow mouth.
It's just... that he can manage such a large academy in an orderly manner and has such weight in the hearts of many students - Huang Xie must be a super talented person despite his young age.
Let’s take a closer look at the talents under Xiong Wuliang’s command——
Le Yi is obviously the only one! He is a military and political talent who can be called 'S+', and he is full of six gods.
Qu Yuan is slightly inferior, but he is also a top talent in the 'S' level.
Zhao Hua and Huang Xie are both 'A+'.
General Shaohu can be regarded as an 'A-', and when Leyi's two sons Lecheng and Lejian grow up, they will probably be at a 'B+' or 'A-' level.
As for Song Zhe, who is in charge of the business shop, and Shi Er, who is in charge of the industrial park, they are considered to be 'B' or 'B-' level talents.
Yin Yu and Huang Wu are special-purpose talents and do not participate in ratings, but they can often perform miraculous effects in specific situations.
It can be said that there are so many talents!
…
Huang Xie deliberately avoided the topic of the 'three-year period', so he talked about it in a roundabout way. Xiong Wuliang suddenly remembered his conversation with old man Qu and mentioned Qu Yang.
Huang Xie clearly missed this disciple whom he once loved so much, and immediately became energetic: "You mean Qu Yang?"
"That boy is indeed smart and eager to learn, and he is quite methodical in his actions... In Huang's opinion, if he can continue to improve, he can be regarded as a pillar of talent... It is indeed a waste to treat you Xiong Wuliang as a mere petty official. "
"Anyway, there is no shortage of officials in your fief now... You can choose any of the students in the academy. Send Qu Yang back to the academy as soon as possible!"
Xiong Wuliang and Le Yi looked at each other and smiled.
OK OK!
Huang Xie's heart is already 80% fixed on the academy.
Xiong Wuliang tried to bring up the topic of the 'three-year period' several times, but Huang Xie shrewdly avoided the topic again and again. Obviously, he didn't think it through completely... In the end, he couldn't avoid it, so he cleverly said: "Yeah. It’s lunch time, so why not go eat first.”
Xiong Wuliang couldn't laugh or cry - what time was it? Converted into the time of future generations, it’s only ten o’clock in the morning. Is it time to have lunch?
However, Xiong Wuliang also understood that continuing to press in a roundabout way would not achieve any results, so he simply followed the trend and said, "That's fine... I would like to see how the food in the academy is."
Xiong Wuliang, Huang Xie, Le Yi, and Xiao Hei went straight to the academy's dining hall.
It was obviously not lunch time yet, and the canteen chef was obviously caught off guard...but the food was almost ready, and he was served one by one diligently.
Huang Xie glanced at Xiong Wuliang and told the chef: "No need to make anything special. Just serve it how we usually eat."
A stack of browned lotus leaf pancakes.
Each person has a plate of soybeans mixed with chopped green onions and a plate of pickled vegetables.
There is also a bowl of appetizing fish stew, the fish meat inside is crystal clear.
There is no bronze tripod, all the tableware is very simple basins or large pottery bowls, and the chopsticks are also made of wood, giving it a simple and rustic atmosphere.
Le Yi pointed to the fish soup in great surprise: "This...students in the academy eat fish every day?"
Huang Xie smiled slightly: "Mr. Chang Guo didn't know something - these fish were not bought from Fangshi, but were caught by students from the academy when they went to Huai River or Shao Lake."
"This is an outdoor sport in the academy - if we caught more yesterday, everyone could eat fish. If we caught less, we would all drink fish soup together."
"In short, no matter whether you make a lot or a little, it will eventually be used as a public property in the college canteen... With this activity, students can not only keep fit while studying, but also greatly increase the collective sense of honor."
Le Yi nodded repeatedly in admiration.
The food in the academy is not exquisite, but it is better than filling your stomach... Le Yi was even more shocked when he learned that these meals were all free for students.
Although the food is simple, there are thousands of teachers and students in the academy. They provide three meals a day and consume a lot of food... Even the Jixia Academy in Qi State could not provide completely free meals. It can be seen that Xiong Wuliang invested a lot in Quyang Academy.
Le Yi was shocked by the academy for the second time.
The four of them sat around a table and began to feast... But this peace did not last long. Soon, a large number of students heard the news and crowded around, staring at Xiong Wuliang eagerly.
The idol meeting begins again...
Being stared at by so many people, no one could eat anymore... Xiong Wuliang was not dissatisfied, and without any pretense he began to greet many students and inquire about their studies.
…
Soon it was lunch time, and more students came in. After Xiong Wuliang's repeated requests, the students finally dispersed and began to eat separately.
Grandmasters from various sects in the academy also came one after another... These grandmasters were in a very bad mood today.
No matter which teacher is there, if he discovers that his students are skipping classes collectively, he will probably get very angry.
The Mohist tycoon and the Confucian tycoon were the first to walk in. They happened to see Xiong Wuliang chatting and laughing with the students around him, and immediately understood the reason why the students collectively skipped classes... He looked at Xiong Wuliang with evil eyes.
"Humph, it turns out that Marquis Quyang is here." The Confucian giant snorted, very dissatisfied.
"Disturbing the teaching order of the academy..."
"Not a single student from my academy came this morning!"
…
After the meal, the daily routine after each meal begins, which is also a characteristic of the academy - meal fights!
Under the astonished gazes of Xiong Wuliang and Le Yi, students from various schools waved the noodles in their hands, ate and talked, and began to argue academically, with vegetable soup splashing everywhere.
It is still a common topic - who is the most famous scholar in the world?
…
