Enqing School...the name sounds interesting, full of the warm and profound feelings of the people.
Emperor Jing couldn't help but smile like a father as he thought about it.
"Good name!"
"I didn't expect that the academic style here is so strong. How many talented people are there in the county?"
Since his education is so outstanding, he must have accumulated abundant resources at the bottom of the officialdom.
Yang Fengfan quickly recalled: "Last year, there were forty-six scholars in the county who passed the exam, but there are currently a total of 221 scholars in the county."
The ministers shouted: "Where did the nearly two hundred extra scholars come from?"
This thing sounds too scary! Its message is far more important than other aspects.
There are usually only about twenty scholars in a county. If it is a large county, it can reach the level of forty or fifty.
The scholar looks unremarkable, but in books and plays he seems to have a bad reputation.
But this is not the case. Just by virtue of this status, you can be exempted from a lot of taxes. Being admitted as a scholar is basically the same as being admitted to the mainland, and you have to be in the pornographic category.
As long as you give up the illusion of continuing to improve and don't mess around, you can live a happy life.
"Many scholars also came from other places, because before the policy of easing business restrictions, there were only twenty scholars. But last year, more than thirty scholars came out at one event. The businessmen who went out spread the word, and gradually the news spread. This place is where the cultural context is, and that’s why we have what we have today.”
"Some people still come from far away, even if they have spent all their money, they still want to come here, soak up the cultural spirit and continue to make progress." Yang Fengfan said with emotion.
Emperor Jing felt a little ridiculous when he heard this: "How can these people live in the city after spending all their money? Is it possible that they will also work in the workshops?"
Yang Fengfan shook his head and said: "No, these people are the seeds of my study in Dajing. Everyone has the opportunity to join the court and serve as an official. If you lose a big thing due to distraction, then the gain will outweigh the loss, so I am also here Find ways to take care of them as much as possible.”
"To this end, the county has set up a new plan to lend a sum of money to these scholars without interest, so that they can prepare for the exams."
"Because there are so many students here, we simply call it the student land plan. Many students have borrowed money from the county, and they can get interest-free for three years."
After listening to this, Emperor Jing clapped his hands and smiled: "Okay, the Qing family has arranged everything well."
"The academic atmosphere in Pingwan County is booming now. I dare say that it is very rare in Dajing. I wonder if your majesty would like to take a look at Enqing School?" Yang Fengfan said cautiously.
"Yes, I have this idea too, so please lead the way."
After hearing Emperor Jing's promise, Yang Fengfan turned around and gave Fang Zheng a look of affirmation, then led the way.
Emperor Jing and a group of ministers were already discussing in the background.
Except for Sun Sheng, who was lost at the end and his face was stained with blood.
At this moment, he seemed to have been abandoned by the whole world, and he didn't know what fate was waiting for him.
But no matter what, the reputation I have accumulated so far has been completely destroyed...
Fang Zheng glanced at him, quickly walked to Yang Fengfan and whispered: "Are you ready in advance for the school?"
"Your Majesty has just sent people back to prepare for the ribbon-cutting ceremony. We have prepared paper fireworks. His Majesty must be very happy." Yang Fengfan replied in a low voice, "But what about our fireworks?"
"This is nothing. The fireworks will be set off tonight. Then you can tell His Majesty this..."
A group of people were walking and discussing.
After Yang Fengfan's explanation, looking at the situation in Pingwan County, it seems to have turned into a different scene.
The original 'chaos' looks vibrant and pleasing to the eye.
The various smells in the air have also turned into human smoke.
Even the merchants who originally looked down upon him seemed to like him a lot this time.
Halfway through the journey, a noisy scene suddenly appeared in front of Fang Zheng and others, which seemed a bit unusual.
Guo Tianyang and others immediately became nervous and gathered around Emperor Jing.
Emperor Jing did not panic. He waved his sleeves gently and asked, "What's happening ahead?"
"I'll go ask!" Yang Fengfan plunged directly into the crowd and squeezed in separately.
Not long after, he squeezed out again out of breath and said to Emperor Jing: "I know, the richest man in Taoyuan is here to teach merchants and tell his business experience, and he is signing books and selling books!"
"Who is the richest man in Taoyuan?" Emperor Jing asked Fang Zhengyi sideways.
Fang Zhengyi was also a little puzzled.
Who else could be the richest man in Taoyuan? Me!
But he seemed to have heard this name somewhere, but there were too many things going on, and he couldn't remember such small things clearly.
"Your Majesty, wait a moment. I'll call him for questioning."
As soon as Fang Zheng finished speaking, he led Zhang Biao towards the crowd.
Zhang Biao pulled hard twice to open up a passage, and the people on the left and right remained silent.
Fang Zheng took a closer look and remembered.
Isn't this Liu Zhongshun? He didn't sell his house in the county and came here.
"Liu Zhongshun!"
Liu Zhongshun was immersed in signing autographs. After signing one book, he threw it to the other side very rudely, and then signed another book.
It has the signature signature of an international superstar.
When he heard someone calling his name, Liu Zhongshun raised his head and saw Zhang Biao at first glance. The next moment he saw Fang Zhengyi said in surprise: "Brother Biao? Master? Why are you here?"
Fang Zheng stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty is here. When you see him later, you have to talk to him nicely. If you do this... leave this stall alone and come with me."
...
Not long after, Fang Zheng pulled Liu Zhongshun and walked to Emperor Jing.
Emperor Jing looked at Liu Zhongshun and smiled: "Are you the richest man in Taoyuan?"
Liu Zhongshun bowed down tremblingly: "Common people don't dare to take it seriously. It's just rumors from the outside world."
"Then what do you do for a living?"
"Selling a house, a house in Taoyuan County."
"Why here?"
Liu Zhongshun swallowed, briefly recalled what Fang Zhengyi said, cleared his throat and said: "The ordinary people have some experience in doing business and have made some money, so they want to pass on some of their methods to others to benefit the people. .”
"And the grassroots people heard that merchants are emerging here, and many people are lacking guidance, so they came here. The grassroots people often heard our master say in Taoyuan County that merchants can't just make profits."
"Merchant's business is private. Since it is a product of the private sector, it must bear some responsibilities of the private sector. The responsibility of a merchant is to do a good, long-term, long-term, and professional business. He must be responsible for the employees and the people. To be responsible, we must also contribute to our country and provide high-quality and low-priced goods, and actively pay taxes.”
"The most important thing is that the merchants in Taoyuan County have always had a fine tradition of feeling for their family and country. Only when they have a good structure can their business grow bigger. Only when their business grows bigger can they better benefit the people and cooperate with others. Therefore, ordinary people come to Pingwan County to teach their experience. .”
