Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 295 Hongdu Academic Journal
Floating on the boat, Mu Jing always had a feeling of unreliability, and only when he answered the shore did he regain a little sense of security.

"Zhang Heng, after you go back, go back to Nanyang immediately, and summon all the shopkeepers who belong to Jingping!"

After getting off the boat, Mu Jing moved his stiff bones, and then said to Zhang Heng beside him.

"Boss, we have just entered the Luoyang market. Although we won a big victory in the salt market, we can kill [-] enemies and injure [-]. We went south to the market, but the initial investment has not yet recovered the cost. Now let's take a look." Are you a little too anxious to target the entire grain market in Guanzhong?" Zhang Heng asked impatiently when he heard this.

He boarded your boat with Mujing, and he was silent on the boat, but he also listened with He Yu and heard the discussion between Mujing and Mi Zhu.

"urgent?"

The corners of Mu Jing's mouth slightly curved up, a comfortable smile appeared on his face, and he said calmly: "It's true that I was in a hurry. If it was only the financial resources of our Jingping Trading Company, I wouldn't be in such a hurry, but with the support of the Mi family, There is hope here, what I want is to cut the mess with a sharp knife!"

Taking down the grain market in Guanzhong, Mushan can be regarded as standing up straight above the imperial court, and he will not be checked and balanced by the public opinion of the wealthy family in Guanzhong.

So even in a hurry, Mujing wanted to give it a try.

"But there is too much money to be squeezed out, and Jingping Trading Company may not be able to sustain it!"

Zhang Heng was still worried.

"Then provoke the grain merchants in Jingzhou and drag them into the water!" Mu Jing gave him a note: "I believe they will be tempted by this big piece of fat in Guanzhong!"

Jingzhou is also a wealthy place, and there are many grain merchants in Jingzhou.

"Jingzhou grain merchant?"

Zhang Heng's eyes lit up, and he had a little plan in his heart. Although he was still not very optimistic, he did not continue to object.

"I will stop all the pressure from the government, and I will try my best to make them talk about business!" Mu Jing instructed: "The grain market in Guanzhong is related to the trend of the court, and it is also related to whether Jingping Trading Co., Ltd. can make one move. Shock the whole world, so I hope that Jingping Commercial Bank will do its best this time, even if they give up some business in Nanyang, they must move the funds out!"

"Understood!"

Zhang Heng nodded. Although Mu Jing gave the order, the arrow was on the string and he had to send it out. He could only do his best.

The two started discussing while walking. Mujing didn't say anything very clear about the next offensive strategy, but just gave Zhang Heng a general idea. After Zhang Heng thought about it, he felt that this battle was more and more hopeful. Also some blood boiled up.

After they reached the intersection of Huangdao Street, they parted ways. Zhang Heng couldn't wait to return to Jingping Commercial House, ready to start the layout of the grain market, while Mu Jing went straight to Hongdumen to learn.

Hongdumen School, nominally side by side with Taixue, is one of the two universities in Luoyang today.

However, Hongdu School is notorious among scholars, known as heresy.

It's just that Mushan's power in the imperial court is at the height of the sky, and Mushan's only son, Mujing, is behind the Hongdumen school. On the surface, even those great scholars will not have too many comments on the Hongdumen school. At most, they are secretly criticizing .

Therefore, the Hongdu School went smoothly during this period of time.

When they take a break at the age of [-], they resume school on the fifth day of the new year. In fact, when they take a break at the end of the year, most of the students stay in the school and leave unwillingly. They cherish the hard-earned learning. , no one wants to waste time.

"Master Jijiu?"

The four students standing guard in front of the gate saw Mu Jing's figure, and hurriedly bowed to salute: "Meet Master Jijiu!"

Hongdu School is the main school of Mujing, with a very strong Mujing style. Mujing does not lead the study of death, he needs students to learn to be self-reliant, so although the school is free of tuition and textbook fees, it can be eaten The fee is still charged.

Of course, it is also very flexible. If some people can’t afford it, they can replace it with labor. For example, some cleaning work in colleges, and some jobs at the front and rear doors of the station can all be paid.

"Don't be too polite!"

Mujing stepped forward, actually he didn't recognize these four students, but he just had some impressions from the opening ceremony. He fixed his gaze on the four of them, broke out the majesty of sacrificial wine, and pretended to be coercive once: "Remember, this gate is the gate of Hongdu. The face of our school, the impression of outsiders who come in and out of here, will let the people in the world know the atmosphere of our Hongdu school, and you stand here to tell the world that we are from Hongdu school. Students, keep your spirits up!"

"Yes!"

When the four students heard the words, they immediately straightened their bodies, raised their heads, raised their chests, and looked up high.

"well done!"

With his hands behind his back, Mujing walked in swaggeringly with an extraordinary bearing.

"Meet Jijiu!" The Deputy Jijiu of the school, the leading doctor, Shi Yiguan, was preparing to give a class to the students. When he walked to the corridor, he just happened to see the scene of Jijiu Mujing, who hadn't shown himself for many days, and hurriedly salute.

"Doctor Shi, are you going to class?" Mu Jing greeted with a playful smile.

Shi Yiguan's character is a bit old-fashioned, he can be regarded as an old pedant, although he looks down on the ways of those old pedants, but he still respects the persistent spirit of these old pedants in his heart.

Mujing spent three days fishing and two days posting on the net. Without the hard work of Shi Yiguan, there would be no right-track development of Hongdu School today.

But Mujing came here today because he had something to discuss with Shi Yiguan: "Doctor Shi, don't go to class, I came here today to discuss something with you, go to the study!"

"Liu Qi!"

Shi Yiguan recruited a Ph.D., handed him the textbook in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "You take the "Doctrine of the Mean" class for the students in the third class of the literature department instead of me!"

Hongdumen School now has more than [-] students, divided into three major disciplines, with a total of seven classes.

There are four classes in literature, two classes in Li Yi, and one class in miscellaneous subjects at the end.

"promise!"

A middle-aged doctor took over the teacher's textbook and went to class.

Mu Jing and Shi Yiguan walked into the Jijiu Study Room.

This study itself is Mujing's office, but Mujing doesn't come here several times a month, so it looks a bit desolate, but it is still very clean because someone cleans it every day.

The two walked to the desk in the middle and sat down opposite each other.

Shi Yiguan raised his head, clasped his hands and asked, "Jijiu, is there something to do with the Hongdu school?"

"I'm going to recruit students for the second term!" Mu Jing said in a deep voice.

"The second batch of students?"

Shi Yiguan's eyes lit up slightly when he heard the words. Although the current Hongdu School has a bit of a reputation, its background is far from the "Tai Xue" of today's number one university, not to mention other reputations. , fame, etc., as far as students are concerned, they are far behind.

"I also want to discuss this matter with Ji Jiu!"

Shi Yi said: "It's just that I'm afraid that the school will not be able to afford it. We are not bound to cultivate. It is not a simple matter to maintain the huge expenses of the school!"

"This aspect is a problem, but it can still be solved!"

Shepherd nodded.

If a school wants to survive, it cannot rely on his own funds alone. This kind of development is abnormal, and it needs healthy development in order for Hongdu School to develop gradually.

"First of all, in terms of the imperial court, I will try my best to get the same treatment as Taixue!" Mu Jing said.

"If you can get the same treatment as Taixue, you can recruit students immediately!"

"Recruit it first, I can handle it!"

Mu Jing said: "I was planning to enroll students once a year, and this year's spring has begun, so we must implement enrollment as soon as possible, and then arrange for students to enroll!"

"Okay, I'll arrange it now!"

"Wait, there is one more thing about you!"

This is the topic of Mujing's visit today. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I want to use the name of the school to find a job that can make a living. All the funds that can support the school's expenses will be obtained from this business!"

"Master Jijiu, are you going to let us do business?" Shi Yiguan frowned.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, thousands of years of deep-rooted traditions, he naturally cared about it, even when he was poor, he never thought of doing business to survive.

"Don't worry, Doctor Shi!" Mu Jing waved his hand: "How can I discredit Doctor Shi and our doctors of Hongdu School!"

Although he wants to uphold business principles, it's not that he doesn't understand the limitations of the times, so he won't be tough.

But it doesn't mean that cultural people can't do business.

Jingping Study is the best representative. Now Jingping Study is blooming everywhere in Luoyang, and it is also famous in Nanyang Jingzhou, but no scholar would say that Jingping Study is a merchant.

In the hearts of scholars, buying and selling books is not a business.

Of course, Mu Jing of Jingping Study has been handed over to his father, Mu Shan, which is beneficial to Mu Shan's move to establish his reputation among scholars. Shares, you can get benefits, you can also get reputation.

So Mujing is going to start another cultural business.

"Does Dr. Shi know about the palace newspaper of the imperial court?" Mu Jing asked.

"Naturally know!"

Shi Yi said: "The imperial court will report to the local government every month to announce the imperial government's policies, so that the local officials can communicate with scholars all over the world!"

"Let's do one too!" Mu Jing said.

"What do you want?" Shi Yiguan was taken aback for a moment, feeling overwhelmed.

"Residence report!"

The corners of Mujing's mouth raised slightly, and he said with a smile.

"Shall we run a mansion newspaper?" Shi Yiguan looked at Mu Jing, calmed down after a while, and asked: "We can't represent the imperial court, what kind of mansion newspaper should we run, you must know that the imperial mansion newspaper is related to the imperial court's national policy, Do not offend!"

He couldn't turn his mind around at all.

"Dr. Shi, why don't you understand?" Mu Jing said in a deep voice, "I said that I want to run a mansion newspaper, not to compete with the court for business. The mansion newspaper we run is about the common people!"

"Preach to the common people?" Shi Yiguan looked at Mu Jing suspiciously, but still didn't understand very well.

"For example, we publish some good articles and anecdotes about sages in the residence newspaper. As the saying goes, teaching is entertaining. Small things can teach people a lot of great knowledge, and then publish them all over the world, for the common people to read, and for the common people. Look, show it to merchants, show it to scholars, as long as anyone is willing to see it, they can see it, what do you think!"

"This one……"

Shi Yiguan's brain began to react, his pupils changed color slightly, and he bowed his hands to Mu Jing: "Master Jijiu is a great talent, I admire you!"

When Mujing said this, he fully understood. At the same time, he also realized that once this report is completed, it will be such an honor for the entire Hongdumen School, and it will surely spread the Hongdumen School to the world. .

"I'm going to handle this mansion newspaper in the name of Hongdu School, and it's called Hongdu School Journal!"

"Hongdu Journal!"

When Shi Yiguan heard the words, his heart was full of enthusiasm. This report is [-]%. It is rumored that the scientific name of Hongdumen will surely be preserved in history. His Shi Yiguan's name will also leave a heavy mark in history. He suddenly became excited: "Master Jijiu, don't worry, I will handle it properly!"

After Mu Jing persuaded Shi Yiguan, he began to explain his strategy. What he said was frothy: "There are not many people in the world who can read, so our residence report should be simplified, and we can't just use the words of the sages. Typesetting, you are now in charge of the university, and you are already full of things. Hongdu Journal needs an editor-in-chief to check, and we also need a lot of editors, typesetters, etc. to support. Although there are many Ph.D. Preaching and learning, I can’t let these things cause chaos, so I’m going to recruit people from the outside, there are actually quite a few scholars in Luoyang, among them there are many talented people, people who live in poverty, I’ve let my staff find a lot , but lacks an editor-in-chief who controls the overall situation!"

"I do have a candidate!" Shi Yiguan thought for a while, and thought that what you said, Mu Jing, was right. He was too busy with the Hongdu school, and there was a second phase of enrollment, which was also a big deal. He would not leave at all. I don't want to host Hongdu Journal, so I recommend someone.

"who?"

"Mr. Kong Ming!"

"What?" Mu Jing's eyes widened.

Which Mr. Kong Ming?

In the history of the Three Kingdoms, he seems to have known Mr. Kong Ming, but he doesn't know where he is now, he is probably just a kid.

"Master Jijiu knows Mr. Kong Ming?"

"Tell me!" Mu Jing calmed down and said.

"Mr. Kong Ming's name is Hu Zhao, style name is Kong Ming, and he lives in a small village about a hundred miles southeast of Luoyang. He is a scholar in Yingchuan, but he had a feud with Zhong's family in Yingchuan back then. I left Yingchuan at home and came to Luoyang!"

When Shi Yiguan was forced to close his school in Hongdu School, he was living in poverty, but he met a lot of down-and-out scholars. There was one person who met Mujing's requirements, but this person had a bit of a stubborn temper: "He was in that small village. There was a private school there to teach people basic learning. Back then in Luoyang, he was also above the Taixue on rites. With his knowledge, he defeated countless Confucian scholars with his words, and finally sat down with Cai Yong to sacrifice wine and discuss learning, thus becoming famous all over the world. Shilin, but he has a persistent personality, he would rather have a bowl of fresh water than high-quality wine, because he is disliked by aristocratic families!"

"Hu Zhao?"

Mu Jing's eyes were burning brightly. From this point of view, this person is in line with what he thought in his heart. First of all, he has a reputation and can control Shilin. In addition, he is not a running dog of a wealthy family and does not worry about fire in the backyard. Editor of the Di newspaper.

"Is there a way to invite him out of the mountain?"

"I can give it a try. Although I had friendship with him in the past, this is a matter of principle. I don't have much confidence!"

"I'll go with you!"

Mu Jing said in a deep voice: "Such a great talent, how can he let him be abandoned in the mountains and forests!"

He thought for a while, stood up, and said: "However, the residence newspaper has to be run. There is a lot of preparatory work in the early stage, and we have to cooperate with the printing supervisor. It must be started as soon as possible. The few houses on the west side of the capital school are the place where the residence is reported. In addition, the Confucian scholars I recruited from abroad do not have much trust after all, and I don’t know how much they are capable, so I must let some doctors from the school watch! "

"No!" Shi Yiguan nodded.
