If someone takes the lead, others will naturally follow.
After a while, nearly a hundred Dali Temple officials all gave chase.
Even if some people are forced to do so, reality leaves them with no choice.
"Dai Shaoqing, please speak kindly to His Highness the King of Han."
"We are willing to listen to his arrangements as long as we can earn enough money to support our family."
Some officials asked Dai Zhou to help him put in a good word.
Dai Zhou really wanted to punch these guys.
Isn't it okay to just talk to him properly? After being so angry, he still needs to wear his coat and lick his face to plead for mercy?
If it weren't for the kindness of his colleagues, Dai Zhou would have walked away.
But at this moment, Dai Zhou still walked up to Zhao Chen and said with a smile: "Zhao Shangshu, I still want to trouble you today. I will make amends with Zhao Shangshu in a certain generation."
After saying that, Dai Zhou and Zhao Chen deeply held hands.
"Boy Zhao, forget it, just think of it as doing me a favor." The emperor also advised Zhao Chen.
The emperor couldn't really let these Dali Temple officials starve to death.
But he really can’t get the money now!
Zhao Chen turned around and looked at the people behind him looking at him expectantly. He waved and said, "Follow me."
…
The emperor and a group of Dali Temple officials followed Zhao Chen.
As they walked, everyone realized that they had arrived at the entrance of Wangyou Bookstore in Dongshi.
There was a long queue outside Wangyou Bookstore. They all came to the bookstore to buy books.
In the team, there were poor people dressed in rags, as well as rich housekeepers dressed in gorgeous clothes.
"What are we here for?"
"You're not asking us to queue up, are you?"
"If you're here to queue up, that's fine, but don't ask us to sell books."
Dali Temple officials were a little nervous.
They are all wearing the official uniforms of Dali Temple at the moment. If they were standing here to help Wangyou Bookstore sell books.
That really became a joke!
The people on the street also saw these Dali Temple officials wearing official uniforms.
Seeing so many people standing around them, I must be very curious.
"Hey, looking at their clothes, they seem to be officials from Dali Temple. Why are they here?"
"Did something happen?"
"I don't know, isn't that the young minister of Dali Temple, Dai Zhou, Dai Shaoqing?"
"Why is he here too?"
"Could something big happen to Wangyou Bookstore?"
"No way, His Highness the King of Han is behind Wangyou Bookstore, how could something happen?"
"Yes, then why are so many of them here?"
The people were curious, and Dai Zhou and the others also looked confused.
They didn't know why Zhao Chen brought them here while walking?
However, Zhao Chen asked them to wait here, and then he went into Wangyou Bookstore with the emperor.
They were left here being stared at by all kinds of strange papaya pastes.
"Everyone, there is good news today."
While everyone was discussing in low voices, they saw the shopkeeper of Wangyou Bookstore suddenly walking out, smiling and shouting to everyone.
The people all looked over, and so did all the officials from Dali Temple.
"As you all have seen, we have some special people here today." The shopkeeper of Wangyou Bookstore looked at the officials of Dali Temple.
The people also looked at it.
Only the Dali Temple officials felt their faces turning red with shame at this moment.
If they had their way, they wouldn't come here.
"Yes, they are the officials of Dali Temple."
"Perhaps many people will ask if there is something wrong with Dali Temple officials coming here."
"This is the good news I want to tell you."
"Dali Temple is the department that hears criminal cases, and the officials of Dali Temple are very familiar with the criminal laws of the Tang Dynasty."
"For this reason, His Majesty the Emperor plans to recruit a group of students in the Imperial College. This group of students, as long as their three generations have not been in prison, are eligible to enter the Imperial College."
"Become a candidate for the future Dali Temple Yamen."
"And the Dali Temple officials in front of us are their husbands." The shopkeeper of Wangyou Bookstore said.
The scene has completely quieted down.
Entering the Imperial College is a dream for many people.
Moreover, these officials from Dali Temple now teach in person.
Being able to become an official student of Dali Temple is something that not many people dare to think about.
What's more, there are no identity requirements for students who want to enter the Imperial College this time.
As long as no one within three generations of him has ever been in prison.
This also means that no matter who they are, scholars, farmers, industrialists or merchants, they are qualified to enter.
"Is there such a good thing?"
"This is incredible."
"My boy almost got into the Chang'an Military Academy before. This time is also a good opportunity."
"You have to listen carefully. Such a good opportunity cannot be missed."
The people looked happy.
Such news is clearly a blessing to them.
"Fortunately, we are just asked to be husbands. I thought before..."
Dali Temple officials also breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as they don't go to the streets to hawk, it's no big deal.
Teaching the law to the children is not a big problem.
If there are one or two promising guys in the future, maybe they can still shine!
Dali Temple officials were also smiling at this moment.
Dai Zhou also breathed a long sigh of relief.
Inside Wangyou Bookstore, the emperor looked at Zhao Chen, he didn't quite understand what Zhao Chen was doing.
"Boy Zhao, how many students are you planning to recruit?"
"There are about a hundred officials in Dali Temple. How many professors does each person have to teach?"
"And, your money..." the emperor spoke and asked Zhao Chen.
"The scholars recruited by the Imperial College every year, to put it bluntly, many of them are useless people."
"We waste so many resources every year to train them, why not train some specialized talents."
"For example, Dali Temple trains students to study law and judge prison matters."
"The Department of Accounts trains students to understand, keep accounts, and check accounts."
"This is called specialized people doing specialized things, and work efficiency will be greatly improved."
"In the future, even if there is a shortage of people in the court, we can always find people to fill the vacancies."
"As for the number of students Your Majesty mentioned, I plan to be a teacher and teach eight students."
"And these eight students are scholars, farmers, industrialists, and merchants, and they all account for two of them."
"As for the money, it will naturally be deducted from the student's salary. If the merchants are rich and have the lowest status, they can be asked to pay more for the salaries of the gentlemen and the surplus retained by the Imperial College."
"As for the other three, just meet their needs for daily life and study." Zhao Chen slowly talked with the emperor about his thoughts.
The emperor opened his mouth. He felt that Zhao Chen's mind was definitely not that of a normal person.
Otherwise, how could you come up with such a clever method?
It not only solved the salary problem of Dali Temple officials, but also reserved professional talents for Datang. It also allowed some money to be spent elsewhere.
"You brat, you are such a genius." The emperor slapped Zhao Chen on the shoulder, but Zhao Chen dodged and slapped him on the table in front of him.??
