Chen Li sat in Dong Liang's study for a long time, and the two of them mainly talked about issues related to education.

This Chen Li does have his own unique insights into education.

Moreover, he opposed the current rigid eight-legged essay education, advocated applying what he learned, and believed that reading should serve all walks of life, not just for being an official.

Chen Li very much recognized Dong Liang’s vision of universal education plus university elite education.

He greatly appreciated Dong Liang's willingness to use a large part of the country's fiscal revenue to develop education, which was at least unprecedented.

Looking horizontally, current Western countries cannot achieve this level.

Dong Liang actually paid a huge price for doing this.

If the money for education is spent on the military, the Chinese military will develop faster.

It is far more difficult to train a scholar than to train a soldier.

But this is a long-term project. It takes ten years to cultivate trees and a hundred years to cultivate people.

The layout of education cannot be delayed for a moment. If you can plan it in advance, you must do it in advance.

Finally, with a wave of his hand, Dong Liang allocated the Office of the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi at the southern foot of Guanyin Mountain to the Ministry of Education to establish the Guangzhou University Hall.

Chen Li was very moved and immediately said that he would die after exhausting himself.

Dong Liang gained another capable Ma Zai.

After seeing Chen Li off, Shang Yun walked in and put away the tea sets.

However, Shang Yun did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood next to Dong Liang and said: "Ah Liang, didn't Shopkeeper Wu want to send his daughter to the Head of State last time? I think you should just accept it. There are always people in the mansion."

There is a person serving tea and water, I don’t have time, and Sister Yingying also has her own things to be busy with.”

Shang Yun felt that Dong Liang's refusal to accept other women was entirely due to his own reasons. He was a good man.

As an elder, Xiang Bang warned Shang Yun that women who want to be heads of state in the future must not be jealous.

There has never been a king who favored only one woman.

Shang Yun, who grew up in the palace, knew this very well. So she decided to take the initiative to ask Dong Liang to bring more women around.

"Yun'er, I really don't dare to accept a daughter from the Wu family. Do you know the name of Wu Chongyao's daughter?"

"You even asked for his name, and you said you didn't want to accept it." Shang Yun said with a smile.

"I asked around by the way. The girl's name is Wu Meiniang. Do you think I dare to accept her?"

"Haha..." Shang Yun couldn't help laughing.

"What's the point? There are so many girls named Mei Niang. There aren't many names for girls to choose from. There are also a lot of girls named Yun'er."

Qingyun Lane, in a two-story building in the Wu family mansion.

A beautiful girl in a red gauze skirt hung a two-foot-long red water chestnut on the beam. Then she staggered over and brought a small round stool with only three legs.

The girl's eyes were filled with tears, as if she had been greatly wronged.

With a "pop", the stool fell onto the mahogany floor with a crisp sound.

The maid passing by the door happened to hear it.

"It's not good, come here quickly, the young lady has hanged herself..." The maid shouted loudly while holding the young lady's legs and moving her upwards.

The little maid has too little strength and is thin. Although the young lady is not fat, she is tall and her legs are still kicking.

The little maid was kicked to the ground by her.

Fortunately, other people heard the sound and came over.

"Meiniang, my silly daughter, why can't you think about it?" Wu Chongyao's wife Wang cried while holding her daughter.

"Mother, my daughter should not marry that pirate leader as a concubine." Because she discovered it early, Wu Meiniang was not injured.

It's just that my throat was strangled and my voice was a little hoarse.

Thanks to Ye Mingchen's vigorous publicity, Dong Liang's image was not very good in Guangzhou.

In the minds of many girls from wealthy families who are in deep boudoir, Dong Liang is a tall man who likes to go shirtless, with a round face, thick arms, a beard, and big yellow teeth when he smiles.

There are even rumors that he likes to fry girls' hearts and livers on a stone slab in fish oil and eat them.

Wu Chongyao was sure that the Chinese would definitely succeed in the end, so he thought of giving his daughter to the young head of state, so that the Wu family and the Chinese would be completely bound together.

In the eyes of these people, whoever a daughter marries is not a matter of marriage. If it can bring benefits to the family, then of course it is better.

You must know that when the Wu family was at its strongest, it had assets of 28 million taels and was recognized by Westerners as the richest man in the world.

Now even though the family is in ruins, the total assets exceed tens of millions.

So without a certain bond of interest, how could Wu Chongyao use all of his family property to cooperate with the Chinese?

Wu Chongyao's grandfather had already made a fortune. Rich people must marry beautiful women. After several generations of family genes improving, the girls they gave birth to would naturally be beautiful and fragrant.

At this time, Wu Meiniang was crying so hard that it made her delicate face look even more charming.

"Daughter, you don't know. Your father said that the head of state is not only young and handsome, but also quite knowledgeable. He will be an emperor in the future. After you follow him, you will at least be a noble concubine. Your parents will feel sorry for you.

.”

Wu Meiniang only felt that her mother was lying to herself. Which pirate would be young and handsome, and how could he be knowledgeable?

"Mother, my daughter does not want to get married. She should serve her mother at home."

…

"Stop crying. If you want to go, they won't accept you." At this moment, Wu Chongyao's majestic voice sounded at the door.

"Don't accept it? What do you mean, sir?" The Wang family also came from a wealthy family and was Wu Chongyao's first wife, so she would not be afraid of Wu Chongyao.

But from what Wu Chongyao said, it seemed like the matter was dirty.

"Yes, the head of state does not accept women, not even maids. Alas... I have never seen such a person, so self-disciplined. Do you know that the head of state is twenty years old, and he doesn't even have a maid by his side. So...

Leading by example, this Chinese clan will definitely be able to dominate the world. Look at the guards entering the city, they really do nothing wrong and they can do this only by following the example."

Wu Chongyao sighed in his heart. Which man can resist the temptation of power and sex after becoming powerful?

Wu Meiniang immediately stopped crying and became curious about that person, but she still couldn't be happy in her heart.

"Master, this is a good thing. My Mei'er will be the mistress of a wealthy family no matter what in the future. Why should she follow that head of state as a child?" said Wang.

"What do you know? The head of state is already twenty years old and has not yet married. I heard that his wife is the princess of the Ryukyu Kingdom. When the head of state was at sea, the Ryukyu people were kind to him."

"Besides, the head of state doesn't even have a maid. If our Mei'er comes to the head of state, she will at least be ranked second in the future. We can't compare with other princesses." Wu Chongyao's words were somewhat regretful.

From now on, this matter may become a laughing stock in the Guangzhou business community.

Wu Chongyao used his daughter to curry favor with the head of state of the Chinese clan, but was rejected.

Wu Chongyao also felt ashamed in his heart, but now that Guangdong is under the rule of the Chinese, what else can he do?

"You are such an ignorant girl. Your father is working hard to support the Wu family's business. You all just want to sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. But has any of you ever thought about sharing some of your burdens with your father?"

Wu Chongyao could only throw fire on his daughter's head.

He actually loved this daughter very much. He had five sons, but he only had this one daughter.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Wu Meiniang started to cry again.

"How old is the boy from the Su family? He became a disciple of that head of state early on. My vision is not as good as Su Wencan's, and my godson is not as good as his."

Now that the Chinese control Guangdong, the Su family's affairs have also been exposed.

All the properties previously misappropriated by Zhang Yalin were taken back by the Su family.

However, the Chinese changed the Zhang family's property into a government-run food factory, which was mainly used to provide logistical supplies for the army and was not handed over to the Su family.

"Dad..." Seeing her father so disappointed, Wu Meiniang felt a little guilty in her heart.

"The head of state wants to embarrass his father, so Mei Niang will go and be his servant girl. What's the problem? Mei Niang will just treat this life as a waste."
