The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 605
Huang Han smiled.Liu Zhilun is no longer that angry youth who is easy to get angry, he is fully mature.

He knew that as long as he kept in touch with Huang Han not in private or secretly, but in public, it wouldn't hurt anything.

Xu Guangqi and Zheng Guochang's high-profile application to the emperor for leave was approved. Because Huang Han made such a big noise, Chongzhen had already received a truthful report from the factory guard. He was curious and determined to be an adult.

The two court elders became the heads of the preparatory office and the second chief editors of the "Chongzhen Dictionary".

With these two serving officials of the imperial court with considerable practical ability to handle the matter, the wealthy Huang family will definitely get twice the result with half the effort if they contribute money.

Too many scholars with household registrations in the capital or resident in the capital came in droves.

Some officials who only have the reputation of a scholar are also eager to work under the old hands of the court, not just for the monthly money of five taels of silver.

Within a few days, two scholars from other places, who were scholars, recruited people, and returned home from work, rushed to the capital to recommend themselves.

It seems that the preparatory office of the "Chongzhen Dictionary" has become the most important event in the literary world, and its influence and scale far exceed the third conference of Fushe held in Huqiu, Suzhou last year.

Huang Han adopts the working method of classifying and subdividing responsibilities to people, and teaches Huang Yi, Lin Shunwen, Shen Youlue, and Wang Yu hand in hand, and asks them to assist Zheng Guochang and Xu Guangqi to do their work meticulously

This time the intention is clear, and the high-quality products will last forever.

Huang Han told his father-in-law and mentor to let them use as many people as possible to do things, don't worry about spending money, put work efficiency first, and don't consider the cost of investment.

Due to the sudden emergence of the city that never sleeps, the business of the yards in Jiaofangsi Hutong in the inner city has been difficult in the past two years. The main reason is that the decoration is too outdated.

In the spring of this year, Chu Chu bought Yichun Courtyard at a low price with her private money. Haitang, Qianlixue, Xiao Taohong and other sisters are all working for Chuchu now.

They are all managers of the Everbright City clubhouse, and they are also one of the minority shareholders of the Everbright City, with dividends recorded every year.

Du Liniang, the bustard of the original Yichun Courtyard, was secretly delighted, because she gritted her teeth and decided to gamble for her future when the city was first built, and handed over 500 taels of silver that she had accumulated for ten years to Chuchu as investment .

It was only later that I realized that I had made the right bet. The business in Jiaofangsi's yards was getting worse and worse. Nine times out of ten, benefactors followed the trend and went to the Nightless City to enjoy themselves. In the end, the huge Yichun Courtyard was deserted and crowded.

The owner of Yichunyuan not only cannot earn money, but also has to pay a lot of money every month. How can it be tolerated? No one in Mazi is sad.

The next day they turned to Chu Chu and got a salary that was higher than Yi Chun Yuan's income.

Falling into a vicious cycle and on the verge of bankruptcy, Chu Chu took over the Yichun Courtyard that the owner wanted to sell but no one cared about it. Without firing a single employee, Du Liniang was retained to renovate the Yichun Courtyard.

Chuchu adopted the latest design to redecorate Yichun Courtyard, built a water tower and a water supply and drainage system, and adopted the same heating and well water cooling mode as in the city that never sleeps.

Just when the decoration was completed, all the service staff and internal staff were in place after internships, and Du Liniang, who had a sense of ownership, was about to reopen the business with a new look, when something happened.

Lord Hou took a fancy to this place, and the new "Yichun Courtyard" was temporarily rented to become the headquarters of the "Chongzhen Dictionary". It didn't take long for hundreds of scholar-bureaucrats to come to work here every day, and the number of people eating in the big restaurant at noon exceeded [-] .

Scholar-officials and a small number of officials don’t mind coming to work in Yichun Courtyard every day. On the contrary, they also like the style here. When they are resting and relaxing, they visit the waterside pavilions, look at the garden, and listen to pipa music...

Chu Chu was delighted to learn that Lord Hou led hundreds of learned scholars to compile reference books that might be popular in Ming Dynasty in Yichun Academy every day.

There are so many scholars in the world who come to high-end places to play tricks. Will you visit the birthplace of the "Chongzhen Dictionary" with the mood of worship?
Chu Chu, who is talented in business, arranges the diet and daily life of four confidant maids, including Xiang'er, Yueya'er, and Yuzhui'er, who are in charge of Yichunyuan.

The hundreds of tortoise slaves, servants, mothers, and maids who have already been retrained are all on duty. Their current task is to take good care of the hundreds of editors and make these scholar-bureaucrats feel at home.

The musicians, geisha, maiko, and kabuki who have been bought and hired work normally, and they are entitled to provide free benefits for leisure and relaxation to the scholar-bureaucrats after work.

Huang Han lived again in the bright and spacious Peony Pavilion, which used a lot of glass floor-to-ceiling windows. It was completely different from four years ago. Abandon.

There is now a big blackboard set up in the flower hall of the Peony Pavilion. Every morning, there are a lot of people. There are five or six hundred people who come to listen to Huang Han's lectures and learn Chinese pinyin.

In addition to the three hundred teachers in the system, the six young guards and one hundred educated young musketeers who followed, there were also Zheng Guochang, Xu Guangqi, and many scholar-bureaucrats from the Hanlin Academy and the Five Temples.

That is, many of the hired editors saw that the well-known and learned man Xu Ge also listened to Dongping Hou’s lectures humbly. Many young editors from the Hanlin Academy and the Five Temples came to study on their own initiative, and they also followed hundreds of people " Ah! Oh! Hungry!" Practice pronunciation.

The two sisters, Xu Miaoyan and Xu Miaoru, have been working as confidential secretaries with Huang Han, and their level is improving day by day.

Because the husband needed to gallop into the capital, King Qin, they couldn't accompany them, and within a few days after arriving in Huxue City by boat from Kuizhou Mansion, the two of them couldn't wait to come to the capital to meet the great woman Zheng Xiu'e.

Sister Hua accompanied her father, Xu Mingyang, to the poor Pingshun County as the magistrate for three years. She saw a lot of hardship and helplessness. Her father also wanted to seek the well-being of the people, but the people became poorer and poorer, and their basic living conditions could not be met. .

Now that I have seen the stability and peace of Huxue City, and seen that the people in the sphere of influence of the "Red Banner Army" can not only live and work in peace and contentment, but also have food and clothing, the sisters have strengthened their confidence in helping their husbands and the world.

The two of them, Xiu Wai and Hui Zhong, have been taught by their father since they were young to study, read poems and songs, and followed Huang Han for more than a year and read many new books to gain a lot of knowledge.

Because they are close to each other, the two of them were even able to ask their husband in bed the Chinese pinyin that he hadn't memorized during the day, so they were among the first students to master how to spell it.

Now the sisters are Huang Han's good helpers, not only taking care of Huang Han's daily life in an orderly manner, but also helping to prepare lessons and correct homework.
