Xia Hongsheng stayed in Chang'an for one night, and left Chang'an early the next morning and returned to Jingyang. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

When I arrived in Jingyang, just in time for breakfast, I returned home, and the housekeeper came over immediately, saying that when it was almost dark yesterday, someone sent some boxes, and a dozen or so people, saying that Xia Hongsheng sent them, and the accent was not like Chang'an people, and the housekeeper did not dare to accept it, so he placed it on Zhuangzi, and was about to send someone to come over this morning to ask.

Xia Hongsheng took a bite of breakfast, and then asked the housekeeper to bring the boxes and the dozen or so people.

The steward did so at once, and in a short time he brought things and people with them.

There are more than a dozen large boxes.

Xia Hongsheng counted, and it was almost enough for one person to correspond to a box, and there were more boxes than people, so the tuition fee was really expensive.

"Ben Hou was entrusted by the dog elder brother to teach you the way of things. You must know that together with things, we must start from the basics and lay the foundation. If you learn the foundation well and lay it firmly, you can learn it in the future. It's hard. Xia Hongsheng said to the dozen or so people: "Even if Ben Hou has seen you today, let's go down and rest first." Ben Hou will make arrangements for you and others in the next few days, and arrange to notify you and others of the meeting. Butler, take them down. ”

After saying something simply, Xia Hongsheng waved his hand and ordered the housekeeper to send them away.

After sending the men away, the boxes were carried to the storeroom.

"Qi Yong, go and open it and see, how many gifts did the fool of the Wa Kingdom give us this time?" Closing the door of the warehouse, Xia Hongsheng immediately said to Qi Yong.

Supporting the operation of the academy is really not small! Jingyang Academy is different from ordinary private schools. It must be known that almost all the income brought to Xia Hongsheng by all the westbound caravans under Xia Hongsheng was spent on the academy.

Qi Yong opened the dozen or so boxes one by one, even Xia Hongsheng, who was not short of money, had a heartbeat after seeing the contents of them.

Gold, jewelry, jade, ...... All kinds of treasures, almost everything.

Whichever one is taken out, it is priceless.

"Ouch, where did these slaves get these things?" Xia Hongsheng frowned: "These things can't be obtained by a few businesses doing business!" ”

"Childe, these Japanese people are really generous, more than one time!" Qi Yong was also taken aback.

"Well, these things are folded and exchanged for copper coins, but I'm afraid that there will be no less than 100,000 yuan." Xia Hongsheng nodded and said, "I'm curious, where did these Japanese people get so many rare treasures. Just those three firms? No matter how good the business is, it is impossible to get so many at once. These envoys sent by the Japanese State to the Tang Dynasty frantically made friends with hundreds of officials and ministers in Chang'an, and the amount of money was staggering, and now they have taken out so many priceless things at one time. These things would never have been brought by them from the Wa Kingdom, and there must be some reason behind this. I must find out and see how many secrets these Japanese people still have hidden in Datang. ”

"Childe, you said that the Japanese people are not right, and they sent more than a dozen people to the academy this time, obviously to steal the school!" Qi Yong said.

"Speaking of which......" Xia Hongsheng suddenly smiled and said: "Qi Yong, you go find someone to call out Zhang Laodao and that Hu Ren alchemist, as well as Li Taihe's work-study students in the school in Zhuangzi, they all called them to their home, and I have something to tell them." ”

Qi Yong immediately took the order to go out, and Xia Hongsheng also walked out of the warehouse, and ordered a few personal soldiers guarding the warehouse to lock the door. Then he left there and went to the study.

As soon as I opened the door, I was greeted by a fresh aroma, like a touching smile.

"Huh? Smell good! Xia Hongsheng exclaimed.

Yuexian poked her head out from behind the bookshelf and said, "This is the new incense that the slave family got from the Hu merchants in the Western Regions before, and the son came back today, thinking that the son would definitely come to the study, so the slave family ordered it in advance." ”

"Fragrant but not greasy, deep and clear!" Xia Hongsheng nodded: "It's weird and smells good!" ”

"It's good if Childe thinks it smells good, and the slave family also thinks Childe will like the smell." Yuexian smiled faintly and said.

Xia Hongsheng looked at Yuexian, and suddenly remembered what Inuemi Mita said yesterday, so he said again: "By the way, Yuexian, it is estimated that the Tang envoy from the Wa Kingdom will come to the house in the past few days." When the time comes, please sit on either side of me with Yuhime and support me for a while. Oh, you don't have to do anything, just sit on either side of me. Go back and talk to Yuhime. ”

"Hold up the scene?" Yuexian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly asked with some puzzlement: "Childe, where is there a female dependent to support the scene?" Childe, why don't you invite Yi Daxia and Qi Yong to them! ”

"Hehe, you'll know when the time comes." Xia Hongsheng shook his head and said with a smile: "They can't hold this face, Brother Yi and Qi Yong, they have to have the two of you to hold on." ”

Seeing Xia Hongsheng say this, Yuexian nodded: "Since Gongzi thinks so, the slave family is at the mercy of Gongzi's orders." ”

After sitting in the study for a while, Qi Yong came back with someone.

Xia Hongsheng let them all be in the main hall, and he went to the main hall.

"Zhang Laodao, how are things doing?" As soon as Xia Hongsheng saw Zhang Laodao, he immediately asked.

"Back to Master Hou, the original ones have been made better, and a few are being tried." Zhang Laodao said.

Xia Hongsheng nodded, and then said to everyone: "I called you here today because I have something to do. This matter is related to the interests of Datang, so you must listen carefully. ”

Listening to Xia Hongsheng's seriousness, everyone also looked solemn and listened carefully.

Xia Hongsheng continued: "Recently, more than a dozen envoys from the Japanese Kingdom sent to the Tang Dynasty wanted to come to the academy to study. If these Japanese people learn these techniques, they will be brought back to the Japanese country, develop the Japanese country, and damage the interests of our Datang. The Wa Kingdom is the most annoying country, and you can tell how they sent an envoy to the Tang Dynasty this time, and how the beginning of the letter of state was written......"

Xia Hongsheng explained to these people the threat and loss brought by the advanced technology of the Tang Dynasty after it was learned by the Japanese people, as well as the wolf ambitions of the Japanese people. After hearing this, everyone was filled with righteous indignation.

"Therefore, these dozen or so envoys from the Japanese State sent Tang envoys to Jingyang to study, and Benhou will not really let them learn useful things with his hypocrisy and grievances." Xia Hongsheng said: "In the name of starting from the basics, we arranged for them to enter the school in Zhuangzi. Zitai, you and the rest of your classmates are responsible for teaching them. Of course, you can only teach the most basic things, as long as you can. What ordinary children learn in three or five days, you can divide it into three or five months and teach them. Moreover, only the most basic things are taught in each subject. ”

"Students obey!" Li Tai and several other students glanced at each other, and then bowed down to receive the order with a solemn expression.

"So, this ...... Master Hou, this doesn't seem to be a matter of the old way......" Zhang Laodao asked weakly.

Xia Hongsheng smiled and said, "It's none of your business, Ben Hou let you be their chemistry teacher." ”

When Li Tai and a few students heard this, they almost couldn't hold back their laughter.

But Zhang Laodao didn't know what chemistry was, and his face was embarrassed: "But, but Lao Dao can only alchemize ......"

"It's for you to teach them alchemy." Xia Hongsheng said: "However, I can only teach you the original things, and I can only teach some simple pills." If you teach a little more, especially the things that Ben Hou taught you, Ben Hou will immediately play Your Majesty, saying that you are collaborating with the enemy and letting you split your five horses!
