Within a few days, Qin Guangcheng sent someone to bring a message. He had already asked someone to read the birth dates of Wang Hengyue and Ma Yunxin. They found that they were the best match. Ma Weiqi had already agreed to Wang Ma's marriage. November 26th this year was a zodiac.
What an auspicious day, the wedding of the two families will be held on this day!
Calculating that there are still two or three months left, Qin Guangcheng will naturally be in charge of the Chengdu side. There is no need for Wang Hengyue to worry about the betrothal gift or the wedding.
The brothers knew that Lord Wang was going to get married in a blink of an eye, and everyone came to congratulate him.
After receiving the news, Zhao Xi also hurriedly came to congratulate him and kept blaming Wang Hengyue. Since his parents were in the United States and could not come back in time, he should naturally be responsible for the man. Wang Hengyue smiled and apologized again and again.
Zhao Xi also said that since he was getting married, it was not convenient to live in the military camp anymore, so he gave Wang Hengyue a large house near the military camp as a place to settle down, and also gave a few maids and servants as a gift.
Half of the houses on He Street belong to the old Zhao family. The old Zhao family has a lot of real estate, and Wang Hengyue did not refuse to accept it.
From the beginning to this era, Wang Hengyue has either lived and eaten in other people's homes or lived in military camps for a long time. This is the first time he has a "home" in the true sense.
After thinking about it, I asked Xingmeizi to take the maids and servants there to clean it first, while Xingmeizi would live there and take care of the big house.
"Marriage is a big event and cannot be taken lightly, but I also have a big thing to do." After the arrangements were made, Zhao Xi said: "To strengthen the country, we must first strengthen the schools. Nowadays, new schools are opening all over the country. Sichuan is no exception, but only in Rong County.
They are all still private schools, and there is no serious new school. Now that the scientific examination has been abolished, what is the use of those taught in private schools?"
Upon hearing that Zhao Xi wanted to open a new school, Wang Hengyue perked up and listened to Zhao Xi continue:
"Therefore, I have long wanted to open a new school in Rong County to teach useful knowledge. In fact, there is no shortage of new academic talents in Rong County. For example, a native of Rong County, Sichuan named Li, once served as a clerk for a French scholar who had read extensively in Chinese books.
How come we are now worse than before when we assisted in the translation of books such as 'Li Sao' and 'Yuan Dao'?"
Wang Hengyue nodded slightly: "What Mr. Xiang said is absolutely true. Neither can you save the country, nor can you strengthen the country by rote memorization. New schools and new education are extremely important. But Hengyue thought that while introducing Western learning, those in Chinese studies
The essence cannot be lost, otherwise the students will forget the roots of China, which will be very bad."
"This statement is very insightful!" Upon hearing Wang Hengyue say such words, Zhao Xi was overjoyed: "I mean the same thing. Western studies and Chinese studies are carried out at the same time. Famous teachers are invited, students are recruited widely, the dross is eliminated, and the essence is selected.
It will take several years to cultivate a group of outstanding students!"
Wang Hengyue was greatly impressed: "Xiang Gong has great foresight, but does this school have anything to show for it now?"
"It's roughly done." Zhao Xi said, "There is a primary school and a large school. Anyone between the ages of six and sixteen can enroll. Those who are poor will be admitted for free. What does Heng Yue think?"
Wang Hengyue stood up and bowed: "Xiang Gong's righteous act will be remembered by the people of Rong County for generations to come!"
I just feel strange in my heart, what is the money that Zhao Xi raised to open the school, which Zhao Xi took care of, come to me for?
Zhao Xi's words soon solved the mystery in Wang Hengyue's mind: "I am the supervisor of this school personally. I came to Shuzhi today to ask Shuzhi to serve as the honorary chairman of the school."
Well? Wang Hengyue didn't react, so he asked himself to be the honorary chairman? What was Zhao Xi's plan?
He touched his head and said: "Xiang Gong, Heng Yue is just a arrogant warrior, how can he be the chairman of the board?"
"There is no need to be modest when describing this." Zhao Xi said with a smile; "Shu has returned from the United States with rich knowledge, which is beyond the comparison of those of us who have lived in the countryside for a long time. Furthermore, his martial arts is illustrious and his reputation is far-reaching. No one in Rong County can compare with him.
For those of you who don’t admire me, who in Leshan, Yibin, or even Chengdu doesn’t know that Wang Gang led it? Here, I’d like to tell you that you are about to become Ma Junmen’s grandson-in-law..."
Wang Hengyue understood this immediately.
There are new schools everywhere in Sichuan, and many Rongxian counties are not noticeable at all. If you want to recruit more students in Rongxian County and surrounding towns, you must have a sign.
Although Zhao Xi is a famous scholar, his greatest influence is in Rong County and the capital. Outside these two places, his influence is slightly inferior. But Wang Hengyue is different.
Wang Hengyue has returned from overseas and has so many military exploits. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is "both civil and military". In addition, he is about to become Ma Weiqi's grandson-in-law, and Ma Weiqi's reputation and power in Sichuan are much greater.
There are too many!
Moreover, Zhao Xi also has a layer of selfishness. In the future, no matter where he comes from, as long as he graduates from Rong County School, he will be Zhao Xi's disciple. In exchange for Wang Hengyue, Zhao Xi will have students all over the world and give Wang Hengyue the false title of honorary chairman.
So what? This is also the common thought of celebrities in this era, so it is not surprising.
The last level and the most important thing is that Zhao Xi can use Rongxian School and the position of honorary chairman to bind himself, Rongxian and Wang Hengyue more closely together! Zhao Xi is a pure ruralist and has a very strong rural awareness
, determined to preserve the tranquility of Rong County.
Nowadays, there are chaos and gangs everywhere, and bandits are rampant. Wang Hengyue has soldiers and guns in his hands. With him protecting Rong County, there is nothing to be afraid of?
From this level, Zhao Xi has regarded Wang Hengyue as one of his own in Rong County!
After thinking about this, Wang Hengyue suddenly had an idea. He cursed himself for being stupid for not thinking of it earlier, and said with a smile on his face:
"Since Mr. Xiang values Heng Yue so much, how can Heng Yue not agree? He is so shameless that he can only wear the name of honorary chairman."
Zhao Xi laughed loudly, and Wang Hengyue said immediately: "But Hengyue also has a small request."
"Just tell me." Zhao Xi was in a good mood.
Wang Hengyue thought for a while: "I think it is not enough to have a new school. We should also have a military school."
Seeing that Zhao Xi was stunned for a moment, Wang Hengyue said confidently: "Looking at various places, in addition to various new schools, military schools are also blooming everywhere. If there can be an army primary school and a large school in Xiang Gong's school, students will be able to study anywhere.
If we take it in, won’t the talents we will cultivate in the future add more color to Rong County?”
Originally, according to Wang Hengyue's intention, he wanted to set up a navy and air force academy, but this idea is too unrealistic now. It would be great to have an army academy.
Zhao Xi thought about it carefully for a while and was overjoyed: "This is a very good idea, but I'm afraid it's hard to find a teacher in this field?"
"Everything is on Heng Yue. Heng Yue actually wants to run this school well!" Wang Hengyue thought very quickly and had already roughly figured out how to proceed:
"If Mr. Xiang can trust Heng Yue, he will hand over the Army Academy to Heng Yue!"
