Ge Dan shook the silver notes in his hand and asked Ge Lin, "What about this?"

"The court has treasure money, so merchants dare not make Jiaozi on a large scale in private. These Jiaozi are certificates of debt. Of course, these are unnamed." Ge Lin looked at Jiaozi in Ge Dan's hand, and then said: "It's very useful to pay when you see the ticket. This one in the young master's hand comes from the Shanxi Guild Hall, which is the industry of Shanxi merchants. As long as there is a Shanxi Guild Hall, you can repay it."

Looking at Jiaozi in his hand, Ge Dan felt very strange. On the one hand, this thing was made to facilitate business among Shanxi merchants, and on the other hand, it was also convenient for bribery?

This is the unnamed bond in later generations, and anyone can repay it. It is really secret, especially in this era, without an account, there is no evidence to check it out. Pay the ticket as soon as you see it, which means that the person who withdraws the money will not be registered. The Shanxi Guild Hall does not know who exchanged the money. It is amazing, it is really amazing. Ge Dan shook it and said with a smile: "They are not afraid of someone making fakes. If you do something fake, you will get rich."

While talking, Ge Dan was still shaking, and at the same time looked at the sun, as if identifying counterfeit money. Of course, he could only enjoy his appetite.

After searching in Guang's mind, Ge Dan soon discovered that this thing was not only done by Shanxi merchants, but also by Hui merchants. They were all recorded in historical records. At first, it was attracted by the imperial examination system, and students from all over the country studied hard to achieve fame and fortune. During the exams every year, hundreds of candidates from all over the country came to the capital.

Most of them have average families, some are still very poor, and the journey is long, the people and land are unfamiliar, and the local accent is difficult to change. They are often bullied by some shops when renting inns and some small things in daily life. The students urgently hope that someone can help solve these problems.

As these problems emerged more and more, they received attention from some local people who came to Beijing to work as officials and business. Out of friendship with fellow villagers, they invited each other, raised funds, purchased real estate, and used the accommodation of other students who came to Beijing to plan business or travelers. The guild hall was born. Because it was mainly for receiving the guild to come to Beijing for exams, these guild halls were also called "test halls".

In Ge Dan's opinion, this thing is for the fellow villagers to join forces. People in the officialdom hope to promote their younger generations, and it is also considered to be a party to a certain extent. This is how the word "Group Party" should be produced.

The purpose of merchants is even simpler. They need the care of officials. With a place like a guild hall, even if they invest some money, they are willing to do so. Whether they make friends with fellow villagers who are already in court or the officials who go to Beijing to take the exam, they are at least Juren. In the future, Jinshi and officials will have many benefits. Ge Dan feels like a Chinatown in his later generations, but the place is as far as the capital.

When you were in the imperial examination in Beijing, no one helped you and your fellow villagers took care of you. What was that feeling? Please help me in the future, would you help me? Ge Dan knew in his heart that this thing would eventually develop into the Qi Party, the Zhejiang Party, the Chu Party, the Jin Party, and the famous Donglin Party in the court.

"Five thousand guan!" Ge Dan put down Jiaozi in his hand and said with a smile: "What did the Qian family think? Wu Qianguan is a little stingy, right?"

Ge Lin glanced at his young master and felt a little hesitant. Is his young master's appetite so big now?

Ge Dan didn't care, and thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow, someone will send this 5,000 guan to the Qian family and tell the Qian family that this official is honest and honest, how can he receive money? Even if the Xingjiaohua requires money, it costs a lot of money, but the official cannot accept bribes just because Xingjiaohua spends money."

After glanced at his young master, Ge Lin took the 5,000-yuan jackpot and said, "Young master, you're thinking too much. This money is for me, mine."

Ge Dan looked at Ge Lin, this was really a big deal!

Seeing Ge Lin put away the five thousand guan, Ge Dan suddenly felt a little distressed, thought for a while and asked, "What else did he say?"

Gelin took the money without any psychological pressure. His wife and daughter were coming, and the money was just right to buy a yard. The expenses in Hezhou in recent years were enough. I guess there would be no such good opportunity in the future, so Gelin put the money up directly. When Ge Dan asked, Gelin said: "Qian Fu said that the eldest young master of the Qian family was willing to donate a college for the young master."

Donate to build a college?

Ge Dan nodded and said with a smile: "That's right. Giving some gifts is not enough. The test of a college is quite generous."

"Then we will come next, Master?" Ge Lin looked at Ge Dan and asked hesitantly.

"Stop waiting!" Ge Dan said with a smile: "You didn't agree to anything, right?"

"No!" Gelin shook his head decisively. The most unstoppable thing for subordinates is to make decisions for their superiors. Even if the boss is already planning to do this, he will change his mind if you make decisions. How could Gelin make such a low-level mistake? Gelin smiled and said, "I said I want the young master to make decisions."

Nodded, Ge Dan leaned his body against the rocking chair, and then said with a smile: "That's all, wait first! Don't worry, take your time."

However, Ge Dan also began to think about building academies. In fact, the Ming Dynasty was in the Chenghua period, and then there was Hongzhi and Zhengde. This should be the best period for the development of the academies. Because in the Jiajing, Longqing and Wanli dynasties, the court began to clean up the academies, probably because he felt that the traces of the academies were too obvious. Even during the Tianqi period, Wei Zhongxian destroyed the academies on a large scale, and even Donglin Academy was not spared.

Even so, Ge Dan dared not guarantee that his academy would work. If he was not careful, he would be afraid of those in power. Forming a clique is always a taboo topic.

To put it bluntly, what I do now is to support my juniors and promote education. I will do this by myself, but if I build a college, it will not work. What if I place it in Hezhou and transfer it away? Let the academy develop itself, it may not be my own academy. What will it be difficult to say, if I do it properly, I will be implicated. This matter cannot be done and I cannot do it.

Ge Dan kept reversing in his heart. Although the academy had many benefits, it was definitely not what Ge Dan wanted. Be more secure and take it slowly.
