Chapter 461: Digging Fang Xing’s Corner
"What's the name of the academy?"
Zhu Zhanji asked curiously, and at the same time was eager to show his skills. Δ Ww W. Lie Wen. CC
"Knowledge!"
Fang Xing wrote the two big characters of knowledge and action on the paper, and said, "I want the students to know before they act, to know while doing, to know and do, and finally to be the unity of knowledge and action."
"What is done on paper is always superficial, and I know that this matter must be practiced."
Zhu Zhanji thought about the meaning of this name, and felt that it was in line with Fang Xing's usual practice.
When Ma Su was selected as a scholar, the people who announced the good news saw how many people's jaws dropped when they saw that Mr. Xiucai was actually digging a hole with the mud legs.
What the literati like most is talking, but they don't like practical work. As long as they can talk and be invincible, they will enjoy it everywhere.
It can be seen from one of the Three Kingdoms that those invincible counselors are all positive images. Even Zhuge Liang was assigned two oral cannons, and the most powerful thing was to kill Wang Lang directly.
Fang Xing smiled slightly and said, "Can words strengthen a country?"
"cannot."
Knowing that Fang Xing was about to enter the spraying mode, Zhu Zhanji hurriedly took a step back.
But Fang Xing didn't start tweeting today, but said flatly: "An invincible tongue should go to the Ministry of Etiquette and fight for the interests of my Ming Dynasty there."
"As for the academy, I will also teach some western situations from time to time. Know yourself and your enemy, and you will win every battle!"
Zhu Zhanji didn't know why Fang Xing was always wary of those foreigners, even more wary of foreigners in the grassland.
There was some sunshine outside, but the spring rain was still falling. The hazy sun shines through the rain, and there seems to be a green shirt woven with fine yarn in the sky.
Fang Xing felt the gentle spring, squinted his eyes and said, "Zhan Ji, if you govern the country completely according to Confucianism, then I won't give you any students from this academy! Do you understand?"
Zhu Zhanji was shocked, what would these students do if they did not go into official careers after they finished their studies?
Could it be...
"Brother Dehua,
The younger brother always remembers that sentence. "
Zhu Zhanji knew that Fang Xing usually looked very gentle, but his stubbornness was no worse than anyone else's.
If Fang Xing was disappointed, Zhu Zhanji felt that he might... no, he would definitely leave!
Fang Xing turned around slowly, his eyes calm.
"Little brother always remembers to let the sun shine on the land of Daming forever!"
Fang Xing smiled slightly: "Just remember, the future development of this world will be progressive, one step at a time, one step at a time. My Ming is still ahead in some places at this time, but I can't be complacent. When I am aggressive, I will Looking forward to that day.”
Zhu Zhanji bowed to be taught, Fang Xing smiled and said: "Let's go, let's see if anyone has signed up."
The registration office was set up in the front hall of Fang's house. When Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji arrived, it was empty except for a little old man who was telling Ma Su about his situation.
"Your Highness, teacher."
Seeing Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji coming in, Ma Su hurriedly got up to salute.
Seeing this posture, the old man saluted immediately.
"Student Tian Fengshou, I heard that Uncle is recruiting professors here, so the student took the liberty to come and have a try."
Tian Fengshou looked at about fifty people, with a dry goatee and a thin body.
As soon as Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji took the chair, Tian Fengshou introduced himself with some embarrassment: "Your Highness, Uncle, the student's ancestral home is in Shandong, and his ancestors were military generals, but he fell down later, and the student studied in the countryside. conscious……"
This person speaks with a Jiangnan accent, and his voice is loud, and his origin can be seen from his name.
Fang Xing nodded and said, "Ma Su, have you passed the test?"
Ma Su bowed and said, "Teacher, I feel that Tian Xiucai has profound knowledge and should be qualified for the post of basic professor."
"oh!"
Fang Xing became interested, so he asked a few casually, Tian Xiucai didn't dare to neglect, and talked eloquently for a long time.
Fang Xing looked at Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Zhanji nodded slightly, and felt that although Tian Xiucai was a bit older, he had a very solid foundation in Confucianism.
Fang Xing nodded, and ordered: "Since you took the lead, the basic professor is yours, Ma Su."
"teacher."
Ma Su got up quickly.
Fang Xing smiled at Tian Xiucai, and said, "Make a record for Tian Xiucai, a monthly salary of seven stones."
"Uncle Xie."
When Tian Xiucai heard that the salary was so high, he was so excited that he was dumbfounded. Then he realized that he had made a mistake in the order, and quickly saluted Zhu Zhanji to thank him.
You know, the salary of the seventh-rank officials of the Ming Dynasty is only seven stones. How can he not be grateful that he, an old scholar, can get such a generous monthly salary!
Moreover, Fang Xing doesn't use treasure notes to measure his monthly salary, so he can avoid the risk of treasure notes depreciating.
A salary of almost 90 shi a year, this is more than 70 mu of land, the output of at least five farmers' hard work for a year.
After Fang Xing and the two left, Ma Su told Tian Xiucai while making notes, "Seven stones are just a basic monthly salary. If the academy thinks that you teach well, there will be a lot of benefits every year. Meat is not a bad thing. It will be less."
Is it that good?
If he hadn't seen Zhu Zhanji here just now, Tian Xiucai would almost have thought he was dreaming.
Ma Su finished the registration, gave Tian Xiucai a sign, and explained: "This sign must be kept well. When the academy starts, there will be someone on duty at the gate, and you cannot enter without a sign."
Tian Xiucai took the sign with trembling hands, wishing he could run home immediately to tell his family the good news.
Just when he was about to leave, Ma Su said slowly: "The academy has prepared small courtyards for each professor. If you like, you can move the whole family here. There is also a cafeteria in the academy, and three meals a day can be served in the cafeteria. Eat without paying."
All the way back home, Tian Xiucai was still in a daze, feeling that he went to a fake academy today.
When the old wife at home saw him, she woke him up and asked him if he was not hired.
"It's done."
Tian Xiucai said in a trance, "It's just that the conditions offered by this academy are so good, I don't think it's reliable for my husband!" He told his wife about the benefits of the academy.
"Pooh!"
His old wife snatched the wooden sign and said with a big laugh: "Xinghe Bo's is the first to open fresh food, the restaurant is making money every day, and His Royal Highness Taisun is in charge, how can it not be counted, move, let's go immediately!" move place."
Tian Xiucai's house was rented, so knowing such a good thing, his old wife couldn't bear it, so she quickly called her two sons, and was ready to move.
"Is Tian Xiucai at home?"
At this time, someone called the door, and when the door opened, a middle-aged man was smiling and cupping his hands.
"Tian Xiucai, my master is also planning to open an academy. The salary is generous. Dare to ask Tian Xiucai to give in."
Tian Xiucai frowned and said, "Who is your master?"
And his old wife and two sons all smiled crookedly. They didn't expect that Tian Xiucai wasted his whole life, but he was scrambled for when he was old.
The visitor smiled and said: "It doesn't matter who my master is, it's just that at the beginning of Chongwen Academy, there is an urgent need for talents like Tian Xiucai to join, so don't worry about the salary, how much Xinghebo's family will open, my master said, add 20% !"
In an instant, Tian Xiucai saw the expressions in the eyes of his old wife and sons...
