The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 793
[Chapter 793 Wang Baole’s bottleneck]
Wang Baole was kicked, a flattering smile appeared on his face, and he said: “The young master is really amazing, even when he founded the academy, the students are all top geniuses, and they are all first-rate. “
When Fang Xiu heard this, he waved his hands and said casually: “Don’t say these words anymore. There is something that I want you to do.”
Wang Baole was slightly startled and said, “Young Master, just give me your orders, little one. I must do it.”
Fang Xiu turned to look at Wang Baole, with a very serious expression, and said, “You should know about the changes in the imperial examination, right?”
Wang Baole nodded and said, “Of course I know. Although I haven’t read any books, I know that the imperial examination must be changed.
If it remains unchanged, it will be a stagnant water. What’s more, today’s competition, I can see what a scholar is
. Scholars are all idle people with little real talent and practical knowledge, so they must become more successful in the imperial examination.”
It has to be said that Wang Baole, like Bai Xiaochun, is extremely suitable to be an eunuch in some aspects.
Because they can guess the Lord’s thoughts and give appropriate answers.
Sometimes, even if they don’t think so in their hearts.
Fang Xiu naturally understood.
He looked at Wang Baole, nodded, and said slowly: “It’s good that you know, but there is one more thing, and that is the changes in the imperial examination, which are very involved.
This is a matter for the entire Chu State, and many scholars, Especially the poor people, they can’t read many books.
After the imperial examination, it is extremely difficult for them to study. “
“This”
Wang Baole seemed to understand something when he heard this, and his face showed surprise. Time actually didn’t know how to answer.
At this time, Fang Xiu continued: “Do you understand what I said?”
Fang Xiu wanted to let Wang Baole speak for himself.
Wang Baole is the shopkeeper of Baolefang, and he is very thoughtful. For this reason, how can he not understand.
So, he hurriedly said: “Young understand, this imperial examination change requires a lot of money, not only to appease the existing scholars, but also to consider the future. Children from poor families also need to study. After the
imperial
examination changes, it will be even more difficult for them to study.
Now, only Kyoto Prefecture has many academies, but there are no academies outside Kyoto Prefecture. If the imperial examination changes start like this, then those children will be afraid. There is no place to even study.
It’s okay in a prosperous place like Jiangnan Road. No matter how the imperial examination changes, those children can always get some information and make some changes.
But here in Southeast Road. I’m afraid it will be difficult in poorer places such as Lianghu Road, Zhongyuan Road, and Southwest Road.
The young master wants to use this money to build academies in various places. Is the young man right? “
Fang Xiu turned his head. , glanced at Wang Baole and nodded involuntarily.
I have to say that Wang Baole is indeed quite intelligent.
“You’re right. How much silver do you estimate you need?”
Fang Xiu looked at Wang Baole and asked.
Wang Baole has always been responsible for money matters, and Fang Xiu really doesn’t have much idea about it.
When Wang Baole heard this question, his expression became a little solemn and he said, “Master, I think it may not be possible even if all the money from our Fang Mansion is invested.”
Fang Xiu fell silent when he heard this.
Wang Baole continued: “But I thought that it was appropriate to invest all the money. After all, the change of the imperial examination is a major event, and it is a major event for you, young master.
This is the bright side of Baolefang .
The above is from the Wang family, but the younger one understands that without you, Baolefang would never be what it is today.
Now, if Kyoto Prefecture, and even the entire Chu State, is a banknote, it is our Baole. Fang, this is all thanks to you, young master.”
When Wang Baole said this, his expression became extremely serious.
He raised his eyes, looked at Fang Xiu, and said very solemnly: “Therefore, no matter what decision you make, young master, I will follow you, no matter what decision you make.” He
emphasized again at the end.
Obviously it means something.
Others may not know it, but they, the core members of the Fang Mansion, have noticed something recently.
Especially after the young master came back from the palace last time.
There have been some changes in many places.
Especially in the court, especially in Prince Kang’s Mansion, especially in the Qinjun Mansion.
I heard that the palace sent spies over and over again to various important towns, but there was no news from them all.
what does that mean?
In other words, what exactly happened in the palace that day?
Although Wang Baole didn’t understand it and he didn’t dare to ask, he knew it in his heart.
In addition, the recent changes in the imperial examination have caused an uproar.
In the final analysis, the changes in the imperial examination were not particularly big.
At the very least, there is no change at all.
It’s just a matter of converting the Jinshi subjects into six subjects.
But that’s the change.
Who is harmed? Naturally, they are the scholars in the world who have been studying hard for more than ten years.
But who benefits?
Take a look at the new-style academies now.
Let’s look at Tai Hospital again.
The one who benefits must be Fang Mansion!
Or rather the young master!
These are the young master’s confidants!
Up and down the Natai Hospital, there are now 23 out of 10 people who are doctors like Bianchi Bian.
And Bianchi’s master is also a young master.
After the imperial examination was divided into six subjects, above the court and in the palace, there were all the young master’s disciples.
What does this mean? Isn’t it clear?
That’s why Wang Baole said that no matter how much money he spent, it was worth it.
Because, if the young master really succeeds, his position as the shopkeeper of Baolefang will be taken to a higher level.
The reason is simple, because he has reached his own bottleneck.
The bottleneck is the shopkeeper of Baolefang, the spokesperson of the world’s most wealthy businessman.
But if his young master succeeds, he will be the richest man in the world. It’s just that there are a few words missing, but it has a completely different meaning.
And now he wants to break through his own bottleneck. At present, it seems that only the young master can succeed!
Fang Xiu didn’t expect Wang Baole to see so clearly, so he glanced at him subconsciously.
He took a step forward, patted his shoulder, and said slowly: “Since you understand it in your heart, just go ahead and do it.
Jiangnan Road is a prosperous place. Your Majesty just visited it some time ago. What is the situation there? , Your Majesty must know better than this young master,
but Qian Zheng is also there, so you don’t have to worry about it. Don’t worry
about him in Jiangnan Dao first. Someone will take care of him when the time comes. Other than that, it’s just money.
Don’t spend all the money on it yet. You still need to keep some.
When you go back, you can draw up a charter and send it to me.”
Wang Baole was a little excited when he heard this. , took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and answered with only one word: “Yes!”
