After leaving the small courtyard, Fang Chen walked on the streets of Yanghuafang, feeling that his whole body was full of strength.
The feeling of being in the same room with Ye Xue'e before was so nostalgic. Now he just wanted to finish all the things he had to do last night, and then take Ye Xue'e out of the small courtyard as he just said.
Let her gain true freedom.
He even thought about leaving the Great Yan Dynasty. With his accumulation during this period, he would not have to worry about the future.
This probably corresponds to the saying that Wenwen Township is the Tomb of Heroes.
All ambitions and ambitions disappeared in front of women. King You of Zhou even lost the world to the princes by smiling and playing with beacon fire for a beauty.
At this moment, Fang Chen suddenly understood this fatuous king.
As he was walking, suddenly a group of officers from the Military and Horse Department hurried towards him: "Master Fang has finally found you."
"What happened? Look at how excited you are." Fang Chen said with a smile.
The official quickly said: "That's it, Mr. Fang. A large group of scholars from our Military and Horse Department came and said they wanted to see you."
"Scholar?"
Fang Chen suddenly remembered that when he and Ye Fan parted last night, the other party said that he wanted to publicize his literary name.
These scholars must have come here because of those poems. He nodded immediately: "Okay, let me go and meet you."
Arriving at the Xicheng Army and Horse Department, it was already noon, and Fang Chen saw a group of people wearing scholar's long coats from afar.
There are young men and women in their prime, and there are no more than one or two hundred good ones.
Li Yun, the commander, seemed to be desperate, and these guys tried to say whatever they wanted but didn't listen.
If you have to wait here, do you still have any prestige as a soldier and horse commander?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Fang Chen and immediately said hurriedly: "Master Fang is here!"
Upon hearing this shout, all the scholars turned their heads in unison, and Fang Chen was startled by the neat speed.
As for that!
"Ahem, hello everyone, I'm Fang Chen. I heard that you guys want to see me?" Fang Chen coughed twice and said hello to everyone with a smile.
The eyes of these guys reminded him of those groupies in his previous life, and he never thought that one day he would become an idol.
"Master Fang!"
"This is Mr. Fang, I didn't expect him to be so young!"
"Yes, he is the one who wrote The Sapphire Case! The poems are peerless, and people are born to be majestic and extraordinary!"
In an instant, countless people started asking questions, and it seemed that the meeting between fans and their idols suddenly turned into a press conference.
Fang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry and quickly raised his hand: "Quiet for a moment, everyone. Let me tell you, you two hundred or so people have so many questions. If I answer them one by one, when will I go?"
"That's right, then I'll ask first!" A thief scholar said with a smile.
Suddenly someone next to me was unhappy: "Why should you go first? I'll ask first!"
Seeing that everyone was about to start a quarrel again, Fang Chen hurriedly said: "Stop, stop, stop, you guys are making me a big boss, so you can discuss and elect ten representatives, and let me know when you have discussed the ten issues."
Fang Chen said as he walked into the Army and Horses Division, he wanted to make careful plans to build a school.
After a while, Li Yun came to report that those people had already discussed it.
Fang Chen went out to answer the scholars' questions. Most of the previous questions were about poetry, so Fang Chen was confused.
However, a few scholars asked about the changes in Yanghuafang, and Fang Chen answered them one by one. The last scholar stood up, a little upset, but his friends and colleagues around him gave him encouraging looks.
Zhou Muzhi took a deep breath and then said: "Sir Fang, student Zhou Muzhi has something to ask you."
"Please tell me." Looking at this extraordinary-looking scholar, Fang Chen sat upright.
Zhou Muzhi said softly: "Today, students and friends and colleagues visited Yanghuafang and found that the city has changed tremendously. The people live and work in peace and contentment and the neighbors are harmonious. It is shocking."
"But Mr. Fang, I dare you to ask your lord, is this enough?"
Fang Chen shook his head without hesitation: "Of course it's not enough."
"Then I dare to ask Mr. Fang, what else is missing?" Zhou Muzhi looked at him expectantly.
Fang Chen frowned slightly and said without thinking: "There are many things missing, but the most important thing now is undoubtedly education."
"Education?" Zhou Muzhi was surprised. This word was a bit new to him.
Fang Chen smiled and said: "That's what you scholars often call enlightenment. Although the people of Yanghuafang have a better life, their lack of academic knowledge is still very serious. The people are illiterate. When the children grow up, they either work in the fields or help.
Working in the shop at home."
“I don’t realize the importance of reading and learning knowledge at all.”
The eyes of many people changed, especially Zhou Muzhi. He frantically suppressed the excitement in his heart and deliberately said: "Sir, students think that studying is useless? We all call ourselves scholars, and studying for ten or twenty years wastes money.
Countless, but so far, nothing has been achieved. If you can’t take part in the imperial examination or become an official, what’s the use of reading more books?”
"Therefore, isn't it reasonable for ordinary people to let their children go to work in the fields?"
"Absurd, the most ridiculous thing in the world!"
Fang Chen snorted coldly: "It's the biggest joke in the world that studying is useless. If studying is useless, why do you come here to see me?"
"The country needs people with knowledge and learning to lead the construction. Without knowledge and learning, we will fall behind, and those who fall behind will be beaten! The trend of great competition in today's world has emerged. The strong will become stronger! The weak! Will perish!"
"Education should start from the childhood of children! I have made up my mind to build a free private school in Yanghuafang, so that in Yanghuafang, no! Even in the entire imperial capital, as long as the people and children are willing, they can come
Study and learn knowledge in a private school for free!”
"It is true that my rank is low and my ability is still shallow! But I can swear that in the future, everyone in my country will be able to study! Everyone can take the scientific examination!"
"You are all from a humble family. The rich and powerful in this world have closed the door for you. I, Fang Chen, am here to open the door for you! You said studying is useless? I will give you a poem."
"Rich families don't need to buy fertile land, they have thousands of grains of millet in their books.
There is no need to raise high beams to build a house, there is a golden house in the book.
When marrying a wife, don’t hate an unscrupulous matchmaker. There is a beauty in the book.
Don’t worry if no one follows you when you go out. There are many carriages and horses in the book.
When a man wants to fulfill his life ambitions, he reads the Six Classics diligently in front of the window."
The words fall.
The whole house was shocked!
Everyone has a book to read! Open a dragon gate for poor people in the world! Free private school!
They had no idea that Fang Chen would dare to be so bold and say such things in front of the public.
Doesn't he know that this move will undoubtedly go against the world's richest families?
But none of that matters now.
Zhou Muzhi burst into tears, knelt heavily on his knees, and hit his head on the ground in front of him: "Student Zhou Muzhi, please follow me, and I am willing to die for you!"
A pool of blood burst out from Zhou Muzhi's forehead on the ground, showing the young scholar's passion.
Then countless voices sounded.
"Student Zhao Tong, please follow me, and I am willing to die for you!"
"Student Zhang Kai, please follow me, and I am willing to die for you!"
"Student Diplodocus, please follow me, and I am willing to die for you!"
…
At this moment, Fang Chen's reputation among these scholars and students was so high that it was unprecedented!
