The heavens start from saving Daming

The first batch of students from earlier years have successfully graduated.

Li Yunze gave them a choice, either to travel to other countries or stay as teaching assistants.

When traveling to various countries, it naturally depends on each person’s abilities.

If you stay as a teaching assistant, you can get not only salary, but also promotion and salary increase in the future.

After all, with thousands of students now, Li Yunze and Shao Zhengmao don't have that much energy to take care of education.

The split between those who choose to leave and those who choose to stay is about half and half.

In Li Yunze's view, this was only true in the early stages, because the first batch of students were basically from Lu.

When students from all over the world finish their studies in the future, most of them will naturally choose to return to their hometowns.

The school has been expanded again, and most students can only attend classes in the open air.

As for the content of Confucian learning, in addition to the unshakable physical training and martial arts training, the first step is to teach official script, then basic courses, and then professional education in different categories.

Wu Zixu had learned official script a long time ago. As for basic education, he could just ignore it.

As the oldest student, he is now taught alone.

Li Yunze directly handed him a book of Zonghengshu and asked him to study it.

The so-called vertical and horizontal skills are actually not pure diplomacy, it is more like using various means and various operating techniques to deceive one's opponents.

It was very suitable for Wu Zixu, who was determined to take revenge on Chu at this time.

Li Yunze didn't give him much time. "You only have three years to study. After three years, you must set off to make preparations. Destroying a country is not a simple matter. It requires long-term planning and arrangements. You don't have enough time." too much."

It is precisely because of this sentence that Wu Zixu studied hard day and night. The real thing was that he got up earlier than the chicken and went to bed later than the dog.

The motivation that supports him to persevere is naturally the blood feud of the whole family.

In Wu Zixu's words, as soon as he goes to sleep, he will dream of his family shouting to him, "Revenge, revenge!" '

He didn't dare to sleep and spent all his energy on enriching himself.

On the other hand, Li Yunze peacefully teaches young Fan Li and gives him a complete set of learning procedures.

Start learning from the most basic official script and lay a solid foundation bit by bit.

Li Yunze said easily, I have the ability to do business, and I hope you can inherit this mantle.

Young Fan Li was grateful to Li Yunze for giving him the opportunity to change the trajectory of his life. Naturally, he would do whatever his master said.

It's good to be a businessman, and it's good to make a lot of money.

"Do you know what a merchant is?"

"To put it simply, merchants buy goods and sell them to earn the difference."

"If we look at it in detail, businessmen are the lubricant of society and one of the driving forces behind production progress."

Young Fan Li nodded vigorously, as if he understood but also seemed not to understand.

Li Yunze didn't pay attention and continued to talk to himself, "If it's just to make money, there's no need to teach you anything. A real businessman should promote the progress of social production and fully act as a lubricant to make people's lives better. "

"Luxury goods are mainly enjoyed by wealthy families. Ordinary families either don't need them or can't afford them."

"The main focus of a product like this is scarcity. Just like paper, this kind of product is not needed by ordinary people who are mostly illiterate, but the demand for it is very high among wealthy families. How to price it? How to determine the production volume, how to compete with Emperor Zhou, etc. all need to be considered and planned. I plan to leave this matter to you."

"Bulk commodities in the true sense are mainly concentrated in food, clothing, housing and transportation."

"Clothing is not just about selling linen, but silk and silk. You need to know the needs of the local people and what price and quantity they can afford. To promote the progress of social production, the first step is to improve the tools. I have new looms here."

"Food is the most important thing for the people, and eating is always the most important thing. If you are a grain merchant, you can make money by hoarding, but you are just a profiteer. If you can make ordinary people eat well, you are a real businessman."

“I don’t want to talk much about housing, but I have nothing to say about housing, real estate, and property.”

"If it works, it involves a lot of technology. Every technological improvement and rule formulation means a change in the ability to act."

"."

Regardless of whether you understand or not, always speak first as a sign of respect.

As for how to understand, it is for students to test it through practice.

Time flies, spring passes and winter comes.

The three-year agreement has passed, and Li Yunze personally sends Wu Zixu on his way.

The white-haired Wu Zixu, with a sword hanging on his waist and a bag on his back, bowed his hands to Li Yunze and saluted, "If you go to the Kingdom of Wu, you will either get your revenge or die in a foreign land. Goodbye!"

"Ah."

Li Yunze nodded and said, "I wish you a great revenge."

Wu Zixu, who looked resolute, nodded and rode away.

But after running a few steps, he turned the horse's head and came back.

"What's the matter?"

"After Changqing completes his studies, how about letting him help me?"

"It depends on whether he is willing."

Wu Zixu, who had stayed in the academy for several years, naturally knew that although the Confucian academy taught many talents, the real top ones were Li Yunze's true disciples.

Zilu was brave and Fan Li was fond of merchants. Only Sun Wu, who practiced the art of war, was the most suitable to help him.

After all, there is a huge gap in national power between Wu and Chu. If you want to defeat Chu, you must use surprise.As for Sun Wu, when he was in the art of war class, his favorite thing was surprise moves.

Looking at Wu Zixu's leaving figure, Li Yunze said thoughtfully, "I hope you can hurry up. It's best to take revenge before the King of Chu dies. Don't dig a grave to vent your anger."

Wu Zixu’s enemy was the King of Chu, but the King of Chu was eating, drinking and having fun freely while Wu Zixu was suffering from his old age, and lived his life as he pleased with the princess of Qin who had been snatched from his son.

The most exaggerated thing is that before Wu Zixu took revenge, the King of Chu actually died.

Such a person can die a good death, which is simply a mockery of those schools of thought that talk about moral character all day long.

It’s so ironic that bad people do evil things but can enjoy life and die a good death, while good people live a miserable life with broken families and families.

Li Yunze rubbed his chin, and after a moment he asked Sun Wu to "select a group of outstanding medical students and let them go to the capital of Chu to make a name for themselves. It is best if they can serve the King of Chu."

Sun Wu's first reaction was, "Master, do you mean to poison the King of Chu?"

These words made Li Yunze laugh. "It's boring to poison him. Let the King of Chu live a good life. Wu Zixu will let him enjoy his life."

Sun Wu and the others didn't know that King Chu would die well before Wu Zixu took revenge, but Li Yunze knew.

Now that we know it, we can't let him die so easily.

"And yourself."

Li Yunze looked at Sun Wu and said, "Accelerate your studies and help Wu Zixu avenge you after you leave the army. You can also practice the military skills you learned."

"Yes."

Wu Zixu came to the Kingdom of Wu and, following Li Yunze's prompts, he became a disciple of Prince Helu.

The Chu State and the Wu State were feuding, especially when the Jin Dynasty was in turmoil and was unable to go out to fight, thus supporting the Wu State to fight against the Chu State. Wu Zixu, a traitor to the Chu State, was valued very much.

Especially when Wu Zixu showed his talent, Helu became his confidant.

"I heard that you are studying in the Confucian school of Lu." On this day, when Helu was entertaining Wu Zixu at a banquet, he asked casually, "I wonder what this Confucian is capable of?"

Wu Zixu, who put down the wine master, bowed first and then explained, "Everyone of the three thousand students of Confucianism is a talent of the moment."

"how is this possible."

Helu laughed and said, "If this is the case, wouldn't the Lu State with 3000 talents be more powerful than Jin Chu?"

Wu Zixu explained carefully, "Among the three thousand students, some are proficient in law, some are profound in the art of war, some are good at business, some are skilled in medicine, some are diligent in music, some are keen on farming, and some are busy craftsmen."

"Confucianism teaches without distinction and teaches according to talents. Disciples will always be given one or more appropriate knowledge."

"No matter which one you are proficient in, you can certainly be considered a talent."

Wu Zixu said this thoughtfully, "Is there anyone outstanding?"

"Of course there are."

Wu Zixu nodded and said, "The mountain chief is afraid that the three official disciples of Master are all great talents in the world."

Helu became more and more interested, "Can I be invited to serve the State of Wu?"

"They haven't finished their studies yet, so they have to wait two years."

Helu, who was a little disappointed, said casually, "I wonder if so-and-so will become the King of Wu in two years."

'I'm afraid my master has mentioned this topic to me! '

Wu Zixu recalled that when Li Yunze talked to him about the Kingdom of Wu years ago, he said that the young master Helu was ambitious and wanted to replace his father and become the king of Wu.

If you want to get the support of the Wu State as quickly as possible, gain Helu's trust to conquer the Chu State, and help him ascend to the throne is the best investment.

As the saying goes, there is no greater skill than rescuing a driver, but the skill of following a dragon is actually about the same.

Suppressing the horror in his heart that Li Yunze could see things and people so accurately, Wu Zixu immediately saluted and lowered his voice, "Sir, I would like to introduce someone who can help you."

"Oh?"

Helu asked curiously, "Who is it?"

"Zhuan Zhu!"

The next year, when Li Yunze learned that King Wu of Wu was assassinated by Zhuan Zhu with a dagger hidden in the belly of a fish, he smiled lightly and began to write to Wu Zixu.

The content of the letter was very simple, asking Wu Zixu to send him the dagger hidden in the belly of the fish.

This dagger is very famous in history and is called the Fish Intestine Sword.

"Your Excellency."

Li Yunze handed the letter to Sun Wu, "You can leave the army now. Take the letter to the Kingdom of Wu and join Wu Zixu, and practice what you have learned. As for the way to go in the future, you decide for yourself."

"Master."

Sun Wu saluted respectfully, "My disciple has no intention of glory and wealth, but only wants to learn the art of war. This time I went to Wu State, just to practice what I have learned. After I have accomplished my mission, I will return and continue my studies."

"I said, it's up to you to decide which way to go."

Li Yunze nodded with a smile, "You will definitely become famous when you go to the Kingdom of Wu. If you want to devote yourself to practice in the future, you may not be able to live in peace. That's all, let's go."

If Sun Wu assisted the Wu State in defeating the Chu State, then his reputation would naturally be heard all over the world.

Countries will inevitably compete for this kind of powerful military master.

The days to come were very lively.
