They had to solve the internal problems, but they couldn't ignore the external problems.
With a specific goal in mind, the people of the Gong family didn't wander around like headless flies.
At least now, they knew the direction.
On the surface, the Gong family was calm as usual.
But behind the scenes, whether it was her, her five brothers, or even her great-grandfather, they were all busy.
The most quiet and elegant place in Ye City was the teahouse called "Nianxiang".
The teahouse only had two floors for business, and the third floor was reserved for the owner to entertain guests.
Moreover, the stairs to the third floor were directly from the backyard, so there was no need to go around the first two floors.
After breakfast, Lin Mengya secretly brought Qinghu and Baisu to this teahouse.
"You're finally here."
Cai Ling was still dressed in a green robe in front of her.
There was still a shy smile on his handsome face.
Lin Mengya looked around and couldn't help admiring Cai Ling in her heart. He was indeed a man with good taste. He could live an ordinary life no matter where he was.
"No wonder Fourth Elder Brother praised you so much on the way here," Mu Qiqi said with a smile.
The decoration of the third floor was very simple. There was a desk, a bed, and a few chairs. Everything was elegant and ancient.
It was neither to be cultured nor to make a fool of oneself. Every brick and tile was full of vicissitudes of life.
"Not at all. It's just that everyone likes it."
Seeing that she liked it, Cai Ling was also very happy.
However, he was a thin-skinned man. No matter how happy he was, he wouldn't show it on his face.
After inviting everyone to sit down, Cai Ling personally made tea for them.
Lin Mengya took it and lifted the lid. A fresh and sweet smell slowly spread out.
"It's indeed the tea made by Boss Cai himself. It's hard to buy it outside."
She smiled sweetly at Cai Ling. Even though she was wearing a mask, her bright eyes curved into crescents.
Cai Ling blushed again. He pursed his lips and looked down at the tea in front of him.
"Alright, you sweet mouth. Let Cai Ling go first. This is what you want. Have a look. "
Gong Si's eyes flashed, covering a trace of deep thought.
Although Cai Ling was a little shy, he was actually very indifferent to people and things.
Otherwise, how would he be able to manage the Cai Family's huge business?
But in front of his little sister, he always looked shy.
To Cai Ling, this wasn't normal at all.
But little sister …
Forget it, let's hope he's just overthinking it.
Lin Mengya took the things that Gong Si gave her.
It was a thick name list, and it recorded the most famous civil and military officials in Wei Nation.
Behind the name, there was a list of background information.
In the last column, there would be a suggestion for reference.
Whether they could invite him or not, they would have to make a judgment first.
The list was divided according to the region. This was what Fourth Elder Brother and the others had been collecting ever since they returned from Dragon City.
Currently, all of Weiguo's reputable misters were on this list.
She flipped through it carefully and had a rough idea in her heart.
"Up here, you should have invited almost all the people you can invite, right?"
Gong Si nodded. The school building had been built about a month ago.
After that, the teachers who had been hired also set off one after another, rushing over to this place.
"However, many of the great scholars declined our invitation. The school now, even among the family schools, is not considered the best. "
Gong Si frowned slightly. This was the big problem.
If there weren't any powerful teachers, why would those aristocratic families send their juniors over from so far away?
"These people are enough for the time being. Fourth Elder Brother, I remember that the Gong family has a library, right?"
Gong Si was stunned for a moment, then he immediately remembered and nodded.
"Yes, but the things in the library are passed down from our ancestors. Don't have any ideas about it. Otherwise, great-grandfather will be very angry. "
Gong Si was careful with his words.
In fact, according to the Gong family's past wealth, the things in the library were all rare treasures.
Even if the Gong family had not fallen to such a state, great-grandfather would not let them have any ideas about the library.
She touched her chin and pretended that nothing had happened.
"Look at what you're saying. I can't destroy great-grandfather's life no matter what. It's just that I feel that this library has been in disrepair for a long time. If there are snakes, insects, rats, and ants, wouldn't it be a waste of good things? "
Her words were soft and gentle, but Gong Si felt that she was definitely up to no good.
But he also wanted to know what she was up to.
He could only follow her words and continue speaking.
"This …"
"So, we have to spend a lot of money to build a magnificent collection for our Gong family's library."
"This is feasible, but …"
She narrowed her eyes and smiled wickedly.
"Since it's a treasure trove, if it's not a great Confucian scholar with a plaque or something like that, I'm afraid it'll tarnish those incomplete books."
Cai Ling suddenly came to a realization.
"What Gong Ya means is that those great scholars will definitely feel that they are qualified to do so. But none of them will be convinced by each other! "
She snapped her fingers. That's right, when the time comes, she would just add a little more fuel to the fire!
"But even if they fight, it doesn't mean that they will stay in our academy."
Lin Mengya shook her head, looking confident.
"At the beginning, I don't need them to stay in the academy for the time being. I just need to let them hang on to the name. When our school is established, do you think it's better to be the teacher of one family or the teacher of the world? "
Gong Si and Cai Ling both understood this point.
"Wonderful! No wonder the old ancestor of the Gong family often praised you for being smart. You're really good at using this trick. "
Cai Ling praised in a soft voice, and her eyes were shining.
Gong Si's throat was stuck, and he was even more worried.
If his little sister didn't have a lover, then Cai Ling would definitely be a good choice.
But she had never hidden the matter between her and Prince Xi from him.
The two of them had already fallen in love with each other, and he was afraid that there would be no room for anyone else.
Cai Ling was afraid that he had used the wrong idea.
"Fourth Brother, what are you thinking about?"
She found that her fourth brother seemed to be distracted today, so she asked softly.
"No, nothing."
Gong Si hid his emotions very well.
Lin Mengya looked at him again, and after making sure that he was really fine, she was relieved.
She almost didn't spend much effort on the construction of the library, and her great-grandfather agreed.
And the location was at the back of the academy.
The scenery there was beautiful, and it was close to the academy. It was a good place.
As the honorary principal and founder of the academy, she had never been to the school.
This time, she went to the school for the first time in the name of investigating the location of the library.
The academy established by the Gong family was divided into three parts.
The first part was the "Children's School", which specialized in training students under the age of twelve. It was considered as the preparatory class of the academy.
After graduating from the "Children's School", they were officially accepted into the academy.
Here, the students had to receive at least three years of education, and after three years, they would take an examination.
Those who passed would go on to further study for another four years.
And in the last two years, the Gong family would arrange some internships for them.
These children who were born in aristocratic families could really understand the life of the common people.
At the same time, the children of the common people could also study together with them.
Her original intention of establishing this academy was to at least achieve relative equality in terms of education.
So this time, she wanted to recruit female students.
Therefore, there couldn't be any mistakes in the management.
The academy was built on the outskirts of Ye City, and it covered a large area. At the same time, there were many follow-up facilities being built and improved.
But at least the basic things had been built.
When she saw the clean and tidy school buildings outside the carriage through the window, she couldn't help feeling a little excited.
After all, in her past life, the school occupied most of her time.
She always had some feelings for the school.
Although she was lonely and destitute at that time, she still cherished those pure and beautiful days.
At the gate of the school, there were already many people waiting for their arrival.
But now, her identity was a little special. Fortunately, there was a girls' school here, so she naturally became the first female student of the girls' school, and she also served as the superintendent.
In this way, it was reasonable.
Because most of the teachers had not moved in, the academy now seemed a little empty.
But the other people who did odd jobs for the academy had almost been recruited.
At first glance, there were quite a lot of people.
The person in charge of the school was an old teacher who used to teach in the Gong family.
Although he wasn't very knowledgeable, he had a good character and was serious in his work.
In the past, the five elder brothers' education was all thanks to this teacher.
Now, when the fourth elder brother saw this old teacher, he still greeted him as a disciple.
"Greetings, Mr. Liang."
This Mr. Liang was over seventy years old, but he was hale and hearty.
His white hair was neatly tied up on top of his head, and he was dressed in a simple and unadorned greenish-gray cotton robe.
But there was a kind smile on his face.
"Mm, don't stand on ceremony. Come in."
His tone was very familiar with the fourth elder brother.
The fourth elder brother smiled, took a step back, and said respectfully.
"Sir, this is Miss Su, whom I mentioned to you before. She's the female teacher invited by the master of the family, and also the superintendent of the girls' school."
At this moment, Mr. Liang finally noticed her.
She nodded slightly and introduced herself in a natural manner.
"I'm Su Mei, greetings, Mr. Liang."
Mr. Liang looked at her from head to toe, and a warm smile appeared on his face.
"Since the master of the family has chosen her, she must be outstanding in some way. In the future, we must work together and not let the master of the family down. "
He didn't make things difficult for her, nor did he question her.
