Chapter 264 Setting up an academy

"Me?" Lu Desheng pointed at himself, "Being the mountain chief?"

Lu Songli nodded seriously.

"No, no, no. My daughter, you think too much of your father." Lu Desheng shook his head like a rattle. Although he often irritated his colleagues, he usually did not harm the younger generation. "We can't mislead the younger generation."

The most important thing is that Lu Desheng said with conscience that the skills he knew were not serious skills.

Lu Songli laughed, "Dad, you underestimate your influence among scholars."

Lu Desheng still shook his head. The most important thing is that being a county magistrate is so busy now. Next, he will be a county guard and a mountain chief. Will he be too busy to die?

"Dad, please listen to me first."

Lu Desheng wanted to say something, but he wouldn't listen.

But when he saw his old wife looking at him eagerly, he shrank his neck and said, "What do you want to say?"

"What Honorary Master means is that you only have a name in the academy and you don't have to work. Occasionally, on some important occasions, you can just show your face and make a speech."

Lu Desheng touched the mustache on his chin. It didn't sound like the job was heavy, and he felt he could do it.

Jiang: "This job is not difficult, it sounds quite easy."

Lu Desheng understood. He glanced at his precious daughter and said, "You know how to use daddy."

Lu Songli laughed. She had to do a big thing, and it was indeed a bit troublesome.

Lu Songli stepped forward and squeezed his shoulders, "Dad, with great power comes great responsibility. Our family and the people of Tianshui Village all rely on you."

Lu Desheng enjoyed his daughter's massage with peace of mind, thinking happily in his heart, tsk tsk, what would this family do without him?

But he still didn't let go, he wanted to enjoy it for a while longer.

"Dad, don't you want to do something great in Liaodong County and slap those people in Chang'an in the face?"

Lu Songli already knew that when her father left, the officials of Chang'an City beat gongs and drums to see him off. When she heard that, she was really angry and funny.

"Don't mention them! It's bad luck!" Lu Desheng's nose almost became angry when he mentioned this matter.

It's better to challenge the general than to provoke him. Lu Desheng sat up straight in an instant, "Don't press the button yet. Come on, tell me what you want to do with your academy? What kind of charter is it?"

"Dad, it is imperative to build an academy. There are nearly forty or fifty children in Tianshui Village. With so many people following us, we have to find a way for their children to get ahead. In addition, we must run it well.

Liaodong County needs a lot of talents. It would be better for us to train these talents ourselves."

Setting up an academy was Lu Songli’s decision after careful consideration.

As the saying goes, no matter how poor you are, you cannot lack education.

To develop Liaodong County and even a larger territory, talents are needed. And the place they are located in is the most peripheral area of ​​Dali, which is not a place that talents are willing to favor.

This is the disadvantage of Liaodong County.

Everything has two sides. When she initially guessed that the Qin family's exile would be around Pingzhou, she allowed them to send the Qin family here.

She chose Liaodong County because of its geographical advantages. The sky was high and the emperor was far away, but the emperor did not pay attention to this. At this time, she could not dislike the shortcomings of it being less attractive to talents because it was not the hinterland of Dali.

As the saying goes, if there is a problem, solve it. There are always more solutions than problems.

Lu Mingzhi on the side said, "Second sister, I'm not trying to throw cold water on you. Building an academy will have no advantage in Liaodong County."

"Who said there are no advantages?" Lu Songli was not angry at his brother's doubts. Having doubts proved that he had started to think, which was a good thing.

"After all, our father is also a member of the Sanjue Monument with the same name as the three mountain chiefs, and he is no worse than the three mountain chiefs Zhang Yong, Chen Dinghuai, and Jiang Jiuqing. Our new academy does not want to be comparable to the three major academies of Wansong, Bailu, and Songshan.

Even though they have the same reputation, it is still possible to build it into a unique and iconic academy."

She built the academy to cultivate various technical talents, preferably those who could be put to use as soon as they came out, rather than to cultivate scholars who would serve as officials.

She said she wanted to build an academy, but actually it was more appropriate to say it was a technical school.

Lu Songli is as realistic as ever.

Lu Songli talked to them about the positioning of the academy to be built.

Lu Mingzhi still found it difficult, "Second sister, even if this is the case, it will be difficult. First of all, I no longer have a husband, and secondly, I have no source of students."

He knew Liaodong County relatively well. There were few literate people, few private schools, and few schools in the county. Also, Liaodong County was quite poor, not as wealthy as the hinterland of the Central Plains, and there were few people who could afford to read. No matter how you looked at it, Liaodong County was quite poor.

I feel like I'm missing a point.

Lu Songli knew it was difficult.

But she believes that Master will have something, just in this coming wave of zombies, no, talents.

This wave of talents who are embracing us must be the kind of people who are strong in action and execution. There should be some deviant things hidden in their bones. Those who follow the rules will not leave for the time being.

This fits the portrait of her husband from the technical school very well.

Having said that, Liaodong County now relies on her father's reputation, and she doesn't know how many talents it can attract.

Lu Songli felt that this attraction alone was obviously not enough, so she decided to set up an academy.

Who knows that Houcheng is located in the northeasternmost area of ​​​​Dali. Talents and talents have to pass through many places to come here. Someone will definitely intercept their people along the way.

Lu Songli never looked down on others. Smart rulers understood the importance of talents and valued them. It was rare for talents to pass through their door, so it would be strange not to try to cash in on them.

There are also those whose goals are not clear enough and whose eyes are dazzled by the random flowers while walking and who end up settling elsewhere.

Therefore, the bait must be enough, and the hatred must be attracted to her. Oh, no, the attraction must be enough to attract the fish.

Now that they have paid attention to her father, they have set their sights on Houcheng and Liaodong County.

Lu Songli decided to make a big noise and pay more attention to prevent them from getting lost.

Lu Songli's smiling eyes fell on her younger brother Lu Mingzhi.

"Second sister, if you have anything to say, tell me directly. If you do this, my brother will feel uncomfortable." Lu Mingzhi felt that he was being targeted, hoping that it was an illusion.

"I have two things to tell you."

"Second sister, please tell me?" Lu Mingzhi said cautiously.

"Write a letter to your wife and invite him to study in Liaodong County."

Lu Mingzhi was stunned, wasn't it? The second sister was planning on his wife?

Lu Songli said generously, "Just say that Cheng Yi, who has been traveling all the way, was released by us."

Is his second sister so generous? Lu Mingzhi knew that his second sister was very short of money recently and wished she could break a penny into two and spend it.

"Second sister, do I know if my husband can leave smoothly after coming to Liaodong County?"

"Why do you think so? Of course we in Liaodong County are free to come and go!" Lu Songli smiled, with a somewhat meaningful smile.

Of course, if he comes and doesn't want to leave, that's another matter.

"You can tell your wife that it doesn't hurt to bring more people. It will be fun to have someone to look after you on the way. We in Liaodong County will take care of their Cheng Yi."
