Chapter 325 Return to Nanyang and open the door to accept disciples
Jiuyuan City was managed well by Li Su. At least in terms of prosperity, it was considered to be at a medium level in China.
For a border county city, it is already considered rare and valuable. But behind the prosperity, looking at the old and new bricks on the city wall, Xie Xin knew that this place had experienced wars again and again.
At first, Lu Bu brought peace here. Later, Li Su inherited Lu Bu's achievements and built it very prosperously.
There is a specialized mutual market here and broad official roads. Here, Chinese merchants can buy leather, dairy products, cattle, sheep and horses to the maximum extent. Hu merchants can also buy the iron and steel they need here.
Daily necessities.
If it is difficult to pay taxes, the official road outside the city can take Chinese businessmen to the grasslands at any time to trade directly with the Hu people; and the Hu people can go south to trade with the Han people as long as they are inspected. Of course, on the way back, there is a symbolic
Some tolls are collected, but the bulk is actually food, accommodation and supplies.
There are three private schools here, two schools and one academy. The private schools are all privately owned. One school was established by Li Su in conjunction with the aristocratic families here, and the other was a joint venture established by the aristocratic families themselves. Only the Prairie Academy is Li Su's
Su's sole proprietorship was established using the establishment model of Huaxia Academy. In fact, this model has long been out of date after many years of popularization.
A few of the people here continued the farming tradition of the Chinese nation. But Li Su would not stick to this, and at the same time developed animal husbandry and fish catching (raising) industries. The Hu people did not know how to catch fish and raise fish, and they did not eat fish much.
, but there are still many rivers and lakes on the grassland, and there are a lot of fish resources here.
Today, most of the rice is still imported from China, but Wuyuan County has met the demand for rice by 20% of the residents in the county. And a large amount of meat and river seafood have also greatly satisfied the residents of Wuyuan County.
food needs.
As for vegetables, the output can meet the needs of most people. Only a few people really have little money and can't afford vegetables. The price of vegetables here is at least five times more than in China. Most people really can't afford it.
After knowing the functions of vegetables, Hu people who have been troubled by constipation for a long time still find it difficult to resist the charm of vegetables, although they still don't like eating vegetables.
Seeing the changes in Jiuyuan City, Lu Bu was naturally filled with emotion, and after Xie Xin listened to Lu Bu's introduction, he also nodded.
In the next few days, he gave lectures at Jiuyuan City Prairie Academy. Naturally, the recipients of his lectures were not limited to current students, anyone who wanted to attend the lectures could come.
As for the content of the lecture, it is still economics, which he is best at.
At the beginning, many people were indeed disappointed after learning that it was not a Confucian scripture, and dismissed Xie Xin. But for Li Su and most officials, it was a rare and great opportunity.
For them, Wuyuan County is still too desolate and remote. They need more means to develop this beautiful place and let more people settle here.
Of course, the purpose is not that simple. The main reason is that the more people settle here, the more soldiers can be recruited, and their own life safety is guaranteed; and a large number of residents can also provide more taxes, and even
There are even more choices for taking a concubine.
Starting from the next day, most of the people who dismissed Xie Xin heard that Li Su personally took the lead in attending the lecture and that most of the officials from Wuyuan County were present. Whether it was to understand 'economics' or
Regardless of whether he was trying to curry favor with the officials, the lecture hall was packed to capacity anyway.
After five consecutive days, everyone was still unsatisfied. After all, Xie Xin only taught economics for three days. In the last five days, he also imparted a little knowledge of Confucianism and Legalism, which somewhat satisfied those who were full of Confucianism and Legalism.
Curious people.
That night, Li Su held another banquet to entertain Xie Xin and others.
"Are you going back?" After the banquet, Li Su asked reluctantly.
"I've been out for a long enough time, it's time to go back..." Xie Xin smiled faintly.
The forum has been teaching for more than five days. Unexpectedly, the guys who attended the class also brought him a lot of experience. However, the basic needs for upgrading are too great now, so it is not enough for him to enter a higher realm.
During this period, old students such as Guo Jia, Dian Wei and Mao Jie also brought him a lot of experience rewards for changing some history. This also made him discover that if he taught more such disciples, he might be able to upgrade faster.
?
Ultimately, it's because Wuyuan County is too remote.
He felt that instead of wasting time here, it would be better to return to Nanyang and make a random announcement saying that he was opening the door to accept disciples. Then he would naturally have more experience.
"In this case, it's not easy for Li to stay...it's just Jing'er..." Li Su asked cautiously.
"The qualifications are not bad. If he is willing, he can study with me for a few years." Xie Xin said with a smile.
"I'll just go and ask!" Li Su couldn't wait to run out.
Which parent in the world does not hope that their children will become dragons and phoenixes? Li Su hopes that his son will have a good teacher. This thank you letter is understandable.
But he couldn't help but think of the time when he was still in the rebellious period when he was a child. In his eyes, his parents were just constantly forcing him to learn knowledge. Why should he study, why should he study in that way, why should he go there to study, etc.
He felt that his parents were so annoying.
He always claimed that he had to control his own future. When he finally stayed at home and became a homebody, he began to reflect: If he had been a good boy, would he have successfully entered a certain unit to work? But today's life,
Is this the kind of life you pursue?
My parents planned their own future, but the future I took clearly failed.
Is it right or wrong for me to disobey my parents?
Or even if you are right, what have you gained in this future that you have walked out of?!
Should you be resentful? You say that nothing is your fault, just because your parents force you to do this or that, so you have to do it to them. As a result, you do many things that you know are bad, but you do them.
How much was self-esteem worth in that era? How much was integrity worth in that era?
In an era where everyone has money, for a low-class person like me, if others have given up their backbone and dignity, and I just pretend to be a bitch, is it just a joke?
Forget it, I'm a little off topic...
When Xie Xin came back to his senses, he realized that he had been thinking that although Li Su wanted his son to have a good teacher, would Li Jing be willing to accept him as his teacher?
In the end, he decided that if Li Jing didn't want to be great, then he would not accept him as an entry-level disciple. He would just become a registered disciple, keep enough teaching materials, and come here every month to teach him some knowledge and solve his doubts. Most of them
Just give him time to study by himself.
But the result was beyond his expectation, because Li Jing not only agreed to Li Su's arrangement, but also showed a surprising attitude of admiration.
It seems that those five days of teaching have made me become this little kid's idol.
"In this case, you will be my disciple from now on!" Xie Xin said with a smile.
Afterwards, Xie Xin and the others spent another day completing the entire apprenticeship ceremony, and then Li Jing became the disciple of Xie Xin. And for the first time, Xie Xin could check Li Jing's attributes through the student system.
Li Jing: 9 years old.
Politics: c- (qualification: aa); control: b- (qualification: ss) martial arts: b (qualification: sss); wisdom: c+ (qualification: s) After seeing his attributes, Xie Xin couldn't help but sigh:
In terms of blood relationship, first of all, this guy is a descendant of the Western Han Dynasty general Li Guang; and if we trace it back to the Qin Dynasty, his ancestor is also the famous Qin general Li Xin. Those who come from this bloodline are all geniuses!
As for those who did not become famous, it was probably due to lack of education and bad luck that they did not have the opportunity to show their talents, so they were buried like this.
For example, the Wei family was obviously a famous general in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but due to oppression, it fell into direct decline. Fortunately, Wei Yan came out of the family, and the Wei family flourished for a short period of time.
The apprenticeship has been recruited, so Xie Xin naturally no longer needs to stay here.
The next day, Xie Xin announced that the trip was officially over, and then took Li Jing back to Nanyang County.
This time it was not a sightseeing trip, so we went back very quickly. Within a few months, everyone returned to Huaxia Academy in Nanyang County.
"Is this the Huaxia Academy?" When he saw the campus for the first time, Li Jing was so surprised that his mouth opened wide.
"Yes, this will be the place where you study from now on." Xie Xin said with a smile.
Soon, an announcement was sent out to all of China from within the Huaxia Academy.
The content is just one: The dean of Huaxia Academy, thanking him personally, is opening the door to accept disciples!
Since that recruitment event a long time ago, Xie Xin has not recruited many inner disciples. In recent years, Ma Liang has been the only inner disciple.
How many people hoped to learn more profound knowledge from him, but Xie Xin had been cultivating in the past few years and had no intention of becoming a believer, so in the end they all came here to take advantage of their excitement and returned disappointed.
But now, an opportunity has appeared for them to get their wish.
For a time, Zunyi Township once again became the place that attracted the most attention from all walks of life in China. Anyone who had this intention, whether they were ordinary people or aristocratic families, sent their children here.
Not to mention Cao Cao, who directly sent Cao Zhi, Cao Xiong and Cao Chong over, making Xie Xin couldn't help but secretly wonder that these guys had clearly not married Bian Linglong, so why could they give birth to these children so smoothly?
Forget it, this man is also a lecherous master anyway. With so many wives and concubines, without the high-birth mother Bian Linglong, there will naturally be more women who are willing to bear children for him?
Gongsun Sheng did the same, and sent his nephew Gongsun Yuan and nephew Gongsun Gong over. As for his own children, the eldest had already come out to help him with government affairs. The youngest was three years old this year, and his mother was worried about letting him go out to study.
Huang Zhong gave his second son Huang Yu to him to help teach him, but his eldest son Huang Xu was sent to Chengdu, and Xie Bian also arranged a position as the commander of the inner guard for him.
Xie Yi, the younger brother, is the most rogue, and has arranged for his son Xie Jing to come in. At this moment, Haruyue has given him another pair of twins, and he is already the father of three children. The affairs of the clan have basically been handed over to him.
Xie Hao, he himself slowly returned to his days of cultivation.
There are naturally a lot of people who use the back door, but the children who are sent have very good qualifications, so Xie Xin naturally does not begrudge these two places. He just doesn't dare to take too many, because this time he only plans to accept 200 disciples.
.
It's not that they can't be taught, but that Huaxia Academy doesn't have that many dormitories for them to live in. And if there are too many disciples, the value of these disciples will be ruined, right?
After spending five days, Xie Xin briefly tested the students' levels of four attributes through four subjects. Of course, this could only generally measure their talents in this area.
Then, on this basis, he selected more than 200 of the best and announced that he would accept them as his disciples.
As for those who were unsuccessful, Xie Xin personally paid for it, held a large banquet for everyone to have a good time, and announced that the forum would be open for five days. Those students who were unsuccessful could take the opportunity to attend classes. For those who lacked travel expenses back home, he could also provide it.
In this way, the apprenticeship operation ended happily.
