"Shaoning, I will leave this crane to you. With this thing, I believe the construction progress of the academy will be much faster~! Please be sure to build the bishop, canteen, and dormitories within a month~!"
Seeing such a novel gadget for the first time, a group of students from the Arithmetic School naturally couldn't help but go up and try it out for themselves. It took half an hour for their enthusiasm to subside, and then everyone went back to After going to work at each station, Li Zexuan found Yan Shaoning and said with a smile.
Yan Shaoning had just tried the crane himself. He nodded and said, "Well, that's right~! This crane is really helpful to us... Oh, no, Xiaoxuan, do you want to go back and be lazy again~?"
Li Zexuan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, secretly wondering why is this guy so sensitive now? He hurriedly said: "That's not the case. I will come here often when I have time recently~! You have to be more careful about things here. If you have any problems, you can also send someone to come to me directly~!"
Yan Shaoning looked as if he was like this, and said depressedly: "I know that if you want to be lazy, you are not as good as those students of yours~!"
Li Zexuan shook his head and said: "You can't say that, I'm not going home to be lazy! You are responsible for the construction of the academy, and I still have a lot of things to solve~! For example, the water conservancy supply of the academy, the recruitment of teachers, Enrollment promotion, textbook compilation, etc., these all need to be solved by me as soon as possible. Compared with those students, this is the real hard work and labor for me, okay~?"
After Yan Shaoning heard this, he stopped complaining. He thought for a moment and said, "Well, what you said makes sense. Then go and do your own work~! I will take care of it here~!"
Li Zexuan smiled and said: "Okay~! Then please~!"
After that, he was about to say goodbye and go home. What he just said was not perfunctory or making excuses. He was indeed very pressed for time. These things should have been started very early, but they were delayed by the Seven Xiu Sect's affairs. It's been a long time, so there really isn't much time left for him now.
Yan Shaoning suddenly remembered something at this moment and said quickly: "By the way, Xiaoxuan, there is one more thing I need to tell you~!"
"What happened~?"
"The autumn harvest is coming soon recently, and many people want to take leave to help collect grain. However, the construction period here is getting tighter and tighter, and if we recruit people again, the new people will definitely not be as skilled as them, so I will temporarily They are not allowed to go home~! But this is definitely not a long-term solution, do you think there is any good solution~?"
Li Zexuan frowned slightly. He had overlooked this. In ancient times, spring planting and autumn harvest were very important to the people. Basically, the whole family relied on the little food in the ground to survive the year. He absolutely couldn't. Because of his own selfish interests, he delayed the autumn harvest of more than 10,000 families. He thought for a moment and said:
"More money~! All the peasants and craftsmen who are willing to stay will have their wages doubled this month. They can use the money to hire people to help with the autumn harvest. Besides, each of their families should have half-year-old children. I guess the problem is not Of course, if he doesn’t want to stay, we won’t force him to do so. We will allow him to take leave and go home after handing over the work, but he will definitely not get the double salary. Let them make their own choice~!”
Yan Shaoning raised his eyebrows and exclaimed: "Double wages~? Xiaoxuan, are you crazy~? Putting aside the sumptuous food, the wages we pay here in Yunshan are considered to be the most generous. You Do you want to get double wages~? Do you know that just for this alone, you will have to spend an extra thirty or forty thousand yuan this month~?"
Li Zexuan shook his head and said: "Shaoning, you can't settle the accounts like this~! Yunshan is a special situation. Although the food and wages are very good, haven't you seen that these people are also very dedicated and hardworking~? Yanhuang Which construction team can complete such a large project of the academy in two months~?
They can do it, their efforts are fully worthy of this treatment~! As for double salary, isn’t there nothing we can do~? In any case, I cannot affect the start of school for students because of the progress of the college construction. This is the most important thing~! "
In this era, students' field holidays are usually held in mid-September. Calculating that the day is only a little over a month away, it makes sense for Li Zexuan to be so anxious.
Of course, he also has the capital to say this. Qiquge and Zuixianlou are now hens that can lay golden eggs. It is not an exaggeration to call them making money every day, and "Datang Daily" has already been on the right track. It’s no longer about making money at a loss, but now it’s just about the income from advertising and investment, which adds up to a very impressive sum.
Yan Shaoning said helplessly: "Okay, it's your money anyway. The rich man is the uncle. You can play whatever you want~!"
………………………
After coming down from Yunshan, Li Zexuan did not go home directly, but went to the workshop. Yanhuang Academy's enrollment promotion had to rely on the power of "Datang Daily". At this time, he couldn't help but feel lucky that he had First, we created the "Datang Daily". With this public opinion tool, it became much more convenient for us to do other things.
"Brother Ma, in the next few issues of "Datang Daily", you can help me write a few promotional articles for Yanhuang Academy. I will write the first article myself. You can arrange for people to study hard and let them also be interested in my engineering studies." Do some research, and you will write the manuscripts for the next few issues. I want to recruit students~!"
In the editorial department, Li Zexuan found Ma Zhou and began to explain.
Strictly speaking, Ma Zhou is not a pure Confucian disciple. What he studied is the science of governance. He knows all the knowledge useful for governing the country, and his character is quite adaptable and not rigid. That's why Li Zexuan is so talented. Don't worry about leaving such an important department of "Datang Daily" in Ma Zhou's hands.
When Ma Yiyi heard this, he understood what Li Zexuan meant. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, Sir, we will fully cooperate."
After going through so many things with Li Zexuan, Ma Zhou still has a very deep understanding of engineering. He himself has no bad feelings towards engineering, because the success of the current "Datang Daily" is inseparable from the support of Li Zexuan's engineering.
Moreover, he felt that the study of engineering could make the people of the Tang Dynasty live a better life and allow more people to afford education. The flourishing pattern of education for all peoples was likely to be brought about by the study of engineering, so Ma Zhou still hoped that Li Zexuan would study engineering. can be carried forward.
"Okay, I'll have someone send the manuscript up later. You have to leave a good spot for me in tomorrow's newspaper~!"
Li Zexuan nodded, said goodbye and left. He was really pressed for time now.
