"Master, I'm back!"
At the same time.
A hurried voice came from outside the house.
Zhang Feng, who was discussing matters with the three women, was really shocked. He said lightly, "Speak!"
Jia Daoren pushed the door and hurriedly said, "Master, the Wu family's property has been accounted for. It's in the courtyard now!"
Zhang Feng heard this and his face suddenly became happy. He hurriedly said, "Go, go, go, go, let's go out and have a look."
Zhang Feng and the two women followed Jia Daoren to the courtyard. They saw that there were many large and small boxes in the courtyard. The boxes were filled with countless jewelry and copper coins. The dazzling lineup was quite spectacular. They didn't know how much these things were worth.
Zhang Feng was shocked by everything in front of him. He didn't expect that the small Wu family in Jiangnan would have such a huge wealth. It seemed that they spent a lot of money on normal days. They actually accumulated so much money. Now he didn't have to worry about the funds for the preparation of the academy. These assets were enough to start the academy, and it was more than enough. It just so happened that the businesses in Jiangnan could be operated.
Thinking of this, Zhang Feng couldn't help but show a touch of joy. Now the funds were enough. The next problem was the manpower. Now the news of the academy's opening had spread, so many students gathered in Jiangnan. However, the academy only had one teacher, Mr. Yushan. He was afraid that the manpower was not enough. It seemed that he could only invite Mr. Yushan to discuss it again.
He immediately asked Jia Daoren to invite Mr. Yushan to the mansion, saying that there was something important to discuss. Then he returned to the house.
While they were talking.
Outside the door, Gao Kan's muffled voice sounded.
"Master, Mr. Yushan is here!"
He hurriedly said, "Invite him in!"
Speak of the devil and he will appear!
He immediately got up and prepared to go out to greet him. With a creak, the door was opened. Mr. Yushan smiled and said, "Mr. He Xian, how have you been?"
Zhang Feng saw this and hurriedly went to greet him. He smiled and said, "What are you talking about, Mr. Yushan. Come, come, please, sit down and talk!"
Then he led Mister Yushan to a chair and sat down. Mister Yushan looked at Zhang Feng's smiling face and couldn't help but think, 'Could it be that this kid is up to something again? Why did he suddenly invite the Old Man here? What kind of medicine is he trying to sell?'
Mister Yushan stroked his beard and said, "Mister He Xian, why did you invite the Old Man here?"
Zhang Feng smiled. He didn't know what to say for a moment. The auction this time was also because of Mister Yushan's reputation to attract countless aristocratic families. The harvest was quite bountiful. This time, Mister Yushan definitely wouldn't refuse.
Thinking of this, Zhang Feng smiled and said, "Mister, the Wu family's property has already been accounted for. It's enough to set up the academy. The academy is also in the process of being built. Previously, the news of the academy was spread out, attracting countless students. Now, more and more students are gathering. If the academy is built, I'm afraid Mr. Yushan won't be able to handle it alone!"
Hearing this, Mister Yushan roughly understood what Zhang Feng wanted to do. Wasn't he just interested in the Old Man's students and his old friends in Jiangnan? He was beating around the bush to get the Old Man to bring those people to the academy and teach the students. This kid's belly was really full of evil tricks.
Mister Yushan looked at Zhang Feng suspiciously and couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you a great scholar yourself?"
Zhang Feng's heart trembled. This Mister Yushan was mocking him. Not only did he have to be busy with the academy, he also had to deal with the matters of the clans. How could he have the time to care about the academy? He roped in Mister Yushan to be a hands-off manager so that he could focus on other matters. He simply didn't have the time to deal with the trivial matters of the academy.
Thinking of this, Zhang Feng smiled and said, "Mister, this kid has just arrived in Jiangnan and is unfamiliar with the place. Mister Yushan is a golden signboard here in Jiangnan. This kid's talent is shallow. Moreover, I have to deal with the matters of the clans and have no time to take care of the academy.
Mister Yushan … "If an ordinary person wanted to become a great scholar, they would need at least ten great scholars to recommend them. Then, they would need to register with the Imperial College, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Appointments, and the Supreme Court. Only then would the imperial court issue a document.
However, this wasn't all. One still needed to obtain the approval of the Shandong clans.
Mister Yushan was in Jiangnan and had students all over the place. He also had old friends who were great scholars. If they joined the academy, then the academy could proceed smoothly. He could also busy himself with the matters of the clans and wouldn't have to worry about the academy.
Mister Yushan couldn't help but be moved when he heard this. This kid usually had a way of dealing with people. He was like a fish in water when it came to business. He opened the academy for the sake of the students and the common people. Considering his sincere heart, the Old Man would agree to his request.
Thinking of this, Mister Yushan said faintly, "Alright, considering Mister Yushan's kindness, the Old Man will help!"
When Zhang Feng heard this, he couldn't help but feel a burst of joy. It seemed that this matter had finally come to a successful end. Next, he would have to deal with the matters of the clans.
