Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty Six: Major Events Are Set (Monthly Pass)
Wen Zhenggong did not care about the disapproving eyes of the crowd, but said seriously: "This person is a hermit and has always been inconsistent with fame and fortune. Because of this, his reputation is not prominent. But even so, the Prince of Dongshan and Prince of Beihai of Dachen invited him out of the mountain and treated him like a god... This person is called Fang Wucai."
“…”
Fang Wucai... I haven't heard of it.
Where did this come from?
However, since it was recommended by Wen Zhenggong here specifically, naturally this person is definitely not an unknown person.
Maybe, he is really a strange man of great hidden power.
Yan Shenggong frowned and said, "It's just because of this?"
Wen Zhenggong said again: "It is reported that this person had gone to Northern Yan State, and the emperor of Northern Yan State also treated him very well. The most valuable thing is that this person never cared about fame and fortune. After only taking a scholar, he stopped taking the exam. He only hid himself and studied, knowing astronomy and geography, and has deeper attainments in Confucianism."
This...it seems to be very powerful.
But... it's obviously not particularly outstanding.
At least compared with other people recommended by the public, there is not much chance of winning.
Obviously, these did not cause too much attention from Yan Shenggong. Yan Shenggong only said lightly: "This person's origin is unknown, so it's better to be cautious."
Wen Zhenggong remained silent.
Immediately afterwards, the Dukes recommended three more people. Yan Shenggong was also unsure of his mind and was very upset. He simply decided to let this go in advance and said slowly: "Let's just discuss this today. I will consider the matter of the candidate."
Everyone had to nod and said, "Yes."
Then everyone stood up, bowed to Yansheng Gong, and said goodbye.
Only Wen Zhenggong stayed.
Yan Shenggong was yawning all the time. Not only could he not control his nose, but he even had tears flowed out. Seeing that Wen Zhenggong was left behind, he was unwilling to continue to delay here, so he waved his hand indifferently and said, "I'm going to take a break."
Wen Zhenggong said, "The Lord, there is one thing he learned and needs to report it."
Wen Zhenggong said, looking left and right.
Seeing Wen Zhenggong's actions, Yan Shenggong felt strange. He still insisted so much when he asked Wen Zhenggong to withdraw. In this way, is this matter really serious?
He was a little silent, then gave a wink at the boy beside him, and the boys quickly retreated.
There were only two of them around. Then Duke Wen Zheng respectfully arrived at Yan Shenggong's side and said, "That Mr. Fang is really a master. He is now famous in Luoyang. The Duke should consider this person carefully."
Duke Yan Sheng suddenly showed disgust. He felt that Duke Wen Zheng was a little too much and couldn't help but say, "I have my own considerations."
Duke Wen Zheng was still unwilling to give up, but continued slowly: "I have another thing to report after learning. Mr. Fang, I heard that many buildings in Yanshenggong Mansion need to be repaired, especially when I heard that the Lord was in poor health, I should build a garden and take good care of him, so... I am willing to donate some money to share the worries of the Lord. The Lord, this person regards silver and money as dirt, and this kind of love is really rare."
However, a look of disdain flashed in Yan Shenggong's eyes and said mockingly: "It's not just him who worships the public servants. Is he trying to buy a scholar? I have learned rituals and music since I was a child and inherited the family business of my ancestors. If I regard the scholar as a business, how can I be worthy of my ancestors?"
Wen Zhenggong was not in a hurry, but said slowly: "This person is willing to donate 200,000 taels of silver."
Yan Shenggong's face suddenly became stunned.
Two hundred thousand taels?
This is definitely not a small number, even Yan Shenggong could not help but be moved.
Yansheng Gong Mansion has been expanding, and gardens have risen from the ground, but these are all for money. The Gong Mansion mainly relies on the offerings of various countries and scholars, and only one million taels of silver a year maintains the expenses. In comparison, these 200,000 taels are already an astronomical amount.
Yan Shenggong couldn't help but look at Wen Zhenggong, and his tone was obviously loosened: "Is this person trustworthy?"
Wen Zhenggong naturally understood that Yan Shenggong was already moved, so he smiled and said, "He is now under the Prince of Beihai. I have learned to find out clearly. Prince of Beihai treats him like a god. If he is not trustworthy, I am afraid..."
Yan Shenggong nodded, but said with a little concern: "I'm afraid that the other dukes will be dissatisfied with this."
Wen Zhenggong had obviously thought of a countermeasure long ago and said, "Learn to let some great scholars recommend first and promote his deeds. The Lord of the Sage will follow the flow. The Lord of the Sage will rest assured. Mr. Fang is a great scholar, and now he is also known as Zhen Luoyang, so no one will question it."
Yan Shenggong's face calmed down a little, and he said, "Since that's the case, then you can do it." He glanced at Wen Zhenggong deeply and said, "Don't make any mistakes."
"Yes." Wen Zhenggong nodded, as if he remembered something again, and then said: "Chen Kaizhi educated the Warrior Camp, and this matter was also praised by the intersection. Should Yansheng Gongfu express it?"
"Hasn't it been rewarded?" Yan Shenggong said impatiently: "Does a student still need to reward him? Such children don't have to pay attention to it."
Yan Shenggong yawned and waved his hand and said, "Go."
Wen Zhenggong was convinced that this matter should be almost done.
When Duke Wen Zheng left, Duke Yan Shengyao couldn't help but yawn again, and he suddenly called out: "Zhang Zhong."
In the distance, a man walked quickly and said, "The Lord."
Yan Shenggong narrowed his eyes and said, "I don't think it's so simple. After you go to Luoyang, you must be careful. Since it involves the remnants of all the sons, you must never relax."
"Yes." Zhang Zhong responded and bowed.
Yan Shenggong sighed at this time: "I should take medicine, please serve me to eat."
"Yes." Zhang Zhong's eyes were shiny, and he also liked to take the elixir very much. Every time Yan Shenggong took the medicine, he mostly accompanied him. So when he thought of the elixir, Zhang Zhong couldn't help but yawn.
……………………
At this time, on Feiyu Peak, the sound of firecrackers resounded throughout the mountain, which was very lively.
Chen Kaizhi excitedly led Qiu Ba and others to stand in front of a huge building in Cuxin.
The new library has finally been built.
I saw the door open. In this huge building, it was a building similar to a courtyard house, with three floors. There were more than 30 rooms here. Each room occupied a considerable area, and it was filled with bookshelf. The ones that were open now were only three rooms. Because there were not enough books, I had to do this for the time being.
These three rooms are now filled with a wide range of books.
In the middle of the bookshelf is a long table with benches placed at the bottom. Tables extend into the house, and a room is enough to accommodate hundreds of people to read.
Now Qiu Ba and others have fully mastered the text and have the ability to read books. Even if they encounter some uncommon words, they will not be able to understand the contents of the books at all. These thousands of books have now become their spiritual food.
When Chen Kaizhi told them that more than half of the morning class in the morning would be changed to freely entering the library to read books, Qiu Ba and others were immediately excited.
Everything they see is fresh. It was too boring to recite the Four Books and Five Classics every day. Now everyone walks to the bookshelf one by one and looks at the dazzling array of books.
For them, reading books here seems to have become a rare entertainment in the mountains in the future. After all, most of them are practicing dogs at other times. They can sit here quietly, find a book they like, and read here, which is really a lucky thing.
At the same time, Chen Kaizhi has begun to formulate a cultural movement about Xiayu Village. For Chen Kaizhi, a person who doesn’t know big words is useless. They can only engage in some of the simplest jobs. Horse-raising horses can only raise horses step by step. The guys who raise chickens are only suitable for mechanical chicken raising.
However, Chen Kaizhi was not satisfied with this. He hoped that those who lived in this mountain could become better. He was a human being for two lifetimes, not only believed that knowledge changed destiny, but also believed that knowledge could change people's lives and production methods.
Everyone who goes up the mountain is a brand new person in Chen Kaizhi's eyes, whether he is Qiu Ba of the Warrior Camp, a Confucian scholar of the Confucian scholar of the lacquer, a swineherd, a shepherd, a horsewoman, a maid who serves himself, a blacksmith or a stonemason.
On this mountain, Chen Kaizhi tried his best to make them eat better. If they eat well, they would become energetic. They would no longer be as depressed as before. They would let them bathe on time every day to keep their bodies clean. This could prevent the occurrence of infectious diseases. In addition, they should also keep the habit of washing. Of course, Chen Kaizhi was determined to let them learn to study.
Working for four hours a day, after four hours, ask someone to teach them to read and write. In the future, they can also get one hour to enter the library to read.
When people have knowledge, they are prone to thinking. As long as people are willing to think, although most of the things they think are useless, as long as there is one useful, it may change a way of production.
After all, it would be a painful thing to do everything by Chen Kaizhi, telling them in detail how to stir up pigs, how to raise chickens better, and how to make irons better.
Chen Kaizhi felt that imparting their knowledge was the best way to let them find the principles in the library themselves, rather than simply telling them how to do it. Obviously, it was easier for Chen Kaizhi.
There is already a housekeeper on this mountain, named Liu Xian. He used to be the chief clerk in the county, but was finally exiled because of his crime and then sold himself as a slave. Now, this guy who is over 40 years old has been lucky enough to be respected by Chen Kaizhi.
Because he had the experience of becoming an official in the past, he quickly became accustomed to the affairs of the mountain.
