Chapter 62: Headmaster Zheng Xuan

Zheng Xuan finished teaching Yuan Yun a lesson, and strode into the teaching building, judging from the way he walked, in fact, this old man was very satisfied, this academy occupies such a large area, it has long exceeded his expectations, and after seeing these school buildings, he is also very satisfied with the sincerity of the materials, and continues to blackmail Yuan Yun, but he knows that Yuan Yun's ability is not only that. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

A few people walked through a few classrooms, and soon came to the end of the corridor, looking at a room with a book on the 'principal's room', Zheng Xuan nodded with satisfaction, and walked in first, Yuan Yun and the others could only follow the stream.

When he arrived in the house, Zheng Xuan pushed open a window and looked out a few times, nodded with satisfaction, and then turned around and exhaled a long breath comfortably, feeling very angry that Yuan Yun used expensive paper to make window paper, it was better to build a few more classrooms for such a luxury of making a window.

"Paper is such an expensive thing, the old man is sometimes reluctant to write a few big characters, but you kid uses it to paste the windows, there is really no place to spend the money?" Zheng Xuan complained, and then sat down in the principal's wide chair.

Yuan Yun chose a sofa and leaned in, and then exhaled comfortably, and then smiled: "Old man, don't worry about paper, the papermaking workshop in Luoyang has taken shape, and paper can naturally be supplied in large quantities in the future. ”

"Looking for a fight!" Zheng Xuan raised his palm symbolically, and finally nodded with satisfaction, turned his smile and said: "From then on, these papers will be supplied to this academy regularly, and the old man doesn't plan to pay, who wants your kid to kidnap the old man to teach here, it's no wonder that others." ”

Yuan Yun smiled and nodded in agreement, some paper is just a banknote, and it is not a banknote, so you can't be stingy.

Shi Shen, Xiaoliu and others could only stay at the door, and Yuan Yun actually said filthy words to Zheng Xuan, a great Confucian, not only frowned, but also was a little surprised when he saw Zheng Xuan disapproving it, this old man would go up and kick twice when he saw someone walking crookedly in the new city on weekdays, but when he faced his lord, he became an old disrespect, and I don't know if it was a good thing or an ugly thing.

After Zheng Xuan sat down, he knocked on the wide table in front of him, and then nodded: "The materials are very sufficient, it seems that your kid didn't cut corners, come on, tell me if the old man's proposal just now is accepted, such a large land, at least two more teaching buildings must be built." ”

Yuan Yun said with a smile: "Since you have explained it like this, I will naturally find a way for you to do it, and now the cement and masonry workshops in Luoyang are extremely sufficient, just a little material, you don't need to be too stingy, just go back and build it for you." ”

Zheng Xuan listened to Yuan Yun until he finished speaking, and then he blew his beard and said: "Do you think the old man is blackmailing you kid, you still haven't thought it through, the old man came to ask you, what kind of academy did you build, didn't you want to accept many children to enroll?" Since there are children enrolled in school, there are naturally young people who also want to enroll, and then there are people with better learning who are enrolled in school. ”

Yuan Yun's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "It turns out that the old man's idea is even grander, it seems that I am a little angry, cover the cover, and I will let Ma Jun build two teaching buildings when I go back, and ensure that all of them will be completed before the college is completed." ”

Zheng Xuan laughed and said: "The children can be taught, the children can be taught." ”

Yuan Yun also laughed along, until he saw the bewildered faces of Shi Shen, Xiao Liu, and Ma Jun, so he stopped laughing, and then said to Ma Jun: "It seems that Old Man Zheng Xuan is not only going to teach those children, but also to expand the influence of the academy, and to open the door to the world's scholars, such a teaching building is really not enough, I am afraid that you will have to work hard in the future, Ma Jun, and build two more buildings." ”

When Ma Jun and the others heard this, their eyes lit up, if all students from all over the world can come to this academy, then this matter is really a big deal, scholars and literati are unattainable nobles, they are all concentrated in Luoyang Academy, which will naturally bring a lot of benefits, these are not those workshops can be compared.

Zheng Xuan stretched his legs comfortably in his seat, and then continued: "The old man has already distributed a lot of posts everywhere, inviting some old friends to come, if these people agree, Luoyang Academy will sooner or later become the place where the world's scholars yearn for, Yuan boy, you have taken advantage of the old man again this time." ”

Yuan Yun hurriedly got up and arched his hand: "The old man's kindness, the kid will definitely repay it with a lifetime." ”

Zheng Xuan shook his head and said, "Don't tell the old man about these false things, the old man will ask you, since you let the old man be the principal of this college, will you have to meet any requirements that the old man makes in the future?" ”

Yuan Yun thought about it cautiously, and finally nodded: "Try to be satisfied, try to be satisfied, just ask the old man to raise his noble hand, don't be too demanding." ”

Zheng Xuan snorted and said, "Is the old man an unrestrained person?" You are prepared to run an academy, it is not as simple as you think, whether it is money, food or manpower, it will be very scarce in the future.

Now that the venue has been decided, the old man will let some old things come over to help one after another, these people are not doing it for nothing, you have to arrange it properly. ”

Yuan Yun did not have any intention of refusing except nodding, as long as people are willing to come, it is a great thing, and now Luoyang is gathered either coolies or displaced people, or officials and soldiers, there is no cultural background at all, which is very unfavorable to the development of a city.

Yuan Yun's purpose in building this academy was to attract some Confucian students to come over, but this little thought was immediately seen by Zheng Xuan, but this old man seemed to be in a hurry than him, and he had to make a big splash when he came up.

"I can't ask for it." Yuan Yun said silently in his heart.

Zheng Xuan saw that Yuan Yun agreed to his request, so he didn't pay attention to it, but said to Ma Jun who was guarding the door: "You have so much work on the construction site, don't delay, go back to work now, and by the way, tell Jia Xu that the old man will hold a banquet in Yuan's mansion tonight, and let him call all the heads and faces in Luoyang." ”

Ma Jun said yes and hurried away.

Yuan Yun didn't have any displeasure at all about Zheng Xuan's banditry behavior of preparing a banquet at his house, and he was also going to meet the few local clans before, but the people didn't give face at all, thinking that Yuan Yun was just a new marquis, and his status was not on the stage, so he sent a side disciple to entertain him at most.

As for the business involved in the reconstruction of Luoyang, these local clans are only sending the shopkeeper Zhang Luo of the family, and the head of the family does not show up at all, and the score is so that people have nothing to say.

Well, now that the old man Zheng Xuan has come forward, this is completely different, the world-famous Confucian, this identity is enough to shock those local turtles to death, this time I don't have to worry about what they can put on again.

Glancing at Zheng Xuan with a smile, Yuan Yun said gratefully: "The old man has done the kid a great favor this time, these Luoyang clans are big enough to serve, it's really difficult to serve, they are here tonight, the kid will definitely be entertained." ”

Zheng Xuan glanced at Yuan Yun suspiciously, and then said with great disdain: "Don't pretend to be a good person, tell me what kind of ghost you are paying attention to in your stomach, these local clans are so snub to you, you will be kind enough to entertain them to have ghosts." ”

The corners of Yuan Yun's mouth raised slightly, and he smiled: "Since they are all your guests, old man, how can the kid be lazy, he will naturally be entertained." ”

Zheng Xuan blew his beard and said impatiently: "Don't make these false things with the old man, your kid is naturally resistant to the big family, and I don't know how your master taught him?" These people are all nobles, but you don't even have the slightest respect, can you tell the old man why?

Look at you, the old man just said a few words and you were impatient, it seems that you have a lot of resentment in your kid's heart, what is it that makes you hate these families so much? ”

Yuan Yun pursed his lips and said, "Old man, you come to tell the kid that when the Zhou family is in the world, can there be these nobles in the world?" ”

Zheng Xuanwei was stunned and replied: "Naturally not, most of today's nobles are divided by Hanzu Liu Bang, and even if there is, it is extremely rare, why do you kid ask that?" ”

Yuan Yun Zhengse said: "Since there were no such nobles before, so they were just mud legs at the beginning, how can they be more noble than others?" Since they are ordinary people, they naturally have fools two hundred and five, why should even these fools two hundred and five be one level higher than others?

My teacher Zuo Ci never taught me to hate these big clans, but he told me that people can change themselves through acquired efforts, whether it is knowledge or soul, they can be sublimated or improved through acquired efforts.

That's why I don't like those lazy families, they just rely on the inheritance of their ancestors to make a fortune, where do such people need to be respected? There is a saying that there are only three generations of wealth, and now these clan children are probably more than three generations, right? Just by looking at the gentlemen who linger in the green buildings on the streets of Xudu, you can know how rotten they are, how can I raise my mind of respect? ”

After Zheng Xuan heard Yuan Yun finish speaking, he was not angry, but he had a special feeling for the sentence "rich but not three generations", and felt that these five words had exhausted the sorrow of the family, and then thought of his own family, isn't it the same, his son is still good, but when it comes to his grandchildren, he will be stupid, and he is really rich for three generations.

After being silent for a long time, Zheng Xuancai smiled bitterly: "The kid has a very high spirit, this kind of thing of educating the people is done by others as an ideal, but you have already actually operated it, the old man really wants to see what you can toss into?" If you can really produce a few talents from these coolie children, it is equivalent to slapping the mouths of those big families, and then the old man will really admire you.

It's just that the old man needs to remind you, when dealing with those big families, it's better to be gentle, even if you are ready to bite with your mouth, at least wipe the saliva clean, otherwise you will give people a clue, and sooner or later they will unite to crusade against you, and then the old man will see how you resist? ”

Yuan Yun arched his hand and smiled: "The kid understands this truth, so I took advantage of your old light tonight to reconcile with the local clan in Luoyang, boy, I lowered my body so much, I shouldn't be hated by people again, right?" ”

Zheng Xuan snorted heavily and said, "Since tonight is a banquet in your Yuan Mansion, the old man doesn't interfere too much, just do whatever you want, and the old man should be a bystander." ”

Yuan Yun was stunned, and laughed in an instant, it seems that Zheng Xuan has agreed with his idea of stabbing these big clans, but he can't understand that Zheng Xuan himself is also a child of the big clan, why don't he object?

The wise, the real wise. Yuan Yun could only think so in his heart.

With a long sigh of relief, Zheng Xuan said again: "Now that the facilities are complete, how are you going to recruit students?" ”

Yuan Yun looked at Zheng Xuan in surprise, and said in confusion: "Just go and talk to the laborers on the construction site, is there any special ceremony to talk about?" ”

Zheng Xuan laughed and said: "If you say this directly to these laborers, I guarantee that you will not be able to recruit anyone, these people are born poor, let children learn to write This kind of thing, they don't even dare to think about it on weekdays, even if you provide convenience, they will still worry about identity problems, and the children in the family need to do a lot of things on weekdays, all go to school, which is equivalent to one less labor, which will definitely not be allowed." ”

Yuan Yun nodded and asked, "Does the old man have a clever plan?" ”

Zheng Xuan rolled his eyes, shook his hand unhappily and said: "The old man only cares about teaching and educating people, where can he still care about these miscellaneous things, you can think about it yourself, aren't you very profitable?" The big reason why these poor families don't let their children go to school is that they need to contribute a labor force to subsidize the family. ”

Yuan Yun pondered for a moment, was suddenly startled, and said, "Child labor?!" ”
