Start with a god-level director

Chapter 250
In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed.

One by one, the carriages came to a courtyard next to the Imperial College....

There is a hall here that can accommodate thousands of people. It was originally the place of Qin Tianjian, but now it is given over to Shen Yu.

The internal guards checked the identities of the people who came one by one, and then led them into the hall.

People in the capital love to watch the excitement, but what is the biggest excitement now?
Naturally, Shen Yu, Shen Hanlin and the Son of Heaven played against each other.

In the Song Dynasty, what happened in the palace was known all over the city in the afternoon. This is not the case in this era, but the people in the capital need fun and hot spots.

What else can compare to the legend of Shen Hanlin?
A scholar, a proud queen, playing the right role in the palace, neither arrogant nor humble.

He made a condition to the emperor and asked for a six-month free period to tell what he had learned.

"Your Majesty, I would like to write what I have learned in my chest, but this knowledge is more complicated than the Compendium of Materia Medica. If I write it, it will take at least 300 million words."

The young man's words stunned the emperor and the officials.

300 words...

This guy can really, dare to say!

"300 million characters, Shen Hanlin, what knowledge do you have to be able to write 300 million characters?"

A minister said in this way, how many words are there in the book of sages?A Compendium of Materia Medica is just the knowledge of various herbal medicines, which is understandable.

"The knowledge of self-cultivation, governing the country and the peace of the world. Establishing a heart for the world, establishing a life for the people, inheriting the knowledge of the past, and developing the knowledge of peace for all generations!"

That young man said so.

This time, all the criticisms were severely shattered. After all...everyone has said that, what else do you want?
Several young people quickly came to the hall, and what they saw was a couplet.

"I heard that Shen Zicai injured his right hand and could no longer write good characters. Therefore, he gave the draft of this couplet and everyone Lin wrote it."

"This pair is really good.

The sound of wind and rain, the sound of reading, the sound of the ear.

Family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, and care about everything. "

"I don't know what the course he taught today is?"

Someone asked like this.

"Well, I do know that Shen Hanlin was the first to talk about money in economics."

"Ah, he said A Duwu, what's so good about this thing?"

"I don't know, but my father asked me to come. He likes the book Compendium of Materia Medica very much, especially the little common sense in the supplement. He believes it very much. Now we only let us drink boiled water."

Several young people walked into the hall and found that it was full of people.

"Well, I really want to know how useful 300 million words of knowledge are."

Everyone was thinking like this, waiting for Shen Yu to come over.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Yu stepped onto the podium on time.

Neither overbearing nor humble, neither in a hurry nor in a hurry, Director Shen began to talk about the first lesson he gave to everyone, numismatics.

There is a booklet in his mind, which was compiled by Emperor Yongle in the 29th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty. It is used to teach the children of the royal family about money, currency, business, etc. Each book has a number and must not be lost, etc. wait.

This booklet is simple and easy to understand, but it is easy to understand. It tells about the financial problems and currency problems faced by a feudal dynasty, and how to solve them.

How to lie, how to coax, how to cheat, how to renege on debts, and how to transfer conflicts.

Also, in the past dynasties, how did a dynasty perish because of finances.

Then, this booklet was studied and completed by some people with rich heads and poor experience in later generations, pointed out the problems in it, solved some omissions, and wrote papers one after another, and then Shen Yu took the final result. come out.

Your Majesty the Son of Heaven, I have started my lecture, I hope you like my lecture notes.

……

"Economy is the foundation of a dynasty. Throughout the dynasties, all dynasties that collapsed were financially ruined first.

I am here to tell you about numismatics. "

This is Shen Yu's narration in class. At the beginning, it was full of vernacular, but it was all dry stuff.

The course that Shen Yu narrated was divided into two classes.

From 2 o'clock to [-] o'clock in the afternoon, there is an hour break in between. During the lecture, you can ask questions, but you must raise your hand first.

In Shen Yu's first class, every student turned pale, or excited inexplicably, because he told how a dynasty collapsed!
From an economic point of view, how does a dynasty work!
After 120 years of peace, money has penetrated into every aspect of life, and everyone has felt the magic of money. However, who can explain it as clearly as Shen Yu?
"That's all for today's class. Tomorrow I will start talking about the issuance of currency, etc. Everyone, I have printed a booklet about the currency course. Students of the Imperial College can get a copy for free. Other listeners, if you have If you are interested, each person will receive one tael of silver over there, thank you."

Shen Yu said, today's class is over.

A total of [-] copies of the booklet were printed, and two engraving blocks happened to be used up. As for whether it will be sold out?

Take a look at the cash register. Some people bought hundreds of copies at a time, so you know that there are fewer prints.

……

When Brother Tan returned home with ten booklets, his head was still dizzy.

He went to listen to Mr. Shen's class today. He originally wanted to join in the fun, but after listening for a while, he was deeply attracted.

It turns out that currency, gold and silver, still have that kind of gameplay?
He knows many things, many things he doesn't know at all, and many things are the secrets of the Tan family!

But now, they are all placed in front of everyone, let everyone learn!

"Father... I bought ten copies."

Father flipped through the booklet titled Currency, Gold and Silver and Banks, Finance, ignored his words, but continued to read the booklet with his brows tightly locked.

The booklet with tens of thousands of words, my father read it for half an hour before raising his head and asking him.

"The book is good. What page did Mr. Shen talk about today?"

"On the second page, Mr. Shen said that the course will last for six days. After six days, I will finish this booklet, and then I will take a day off to teach other courses. I want to listen to it tomorrow."

"Listen, why don't you listen? I'll listen to it tomorrow too!"

The father said loudly, and Tan Geer naturally would not ask his father what he thought of this book, because as the young master of the bank, he naturally understood the value of this book.

"By the way, go to the account to pay 500 taels of silver. You bought ten copies of the booklet today and it is not enough. Tomorrow, if it is still on sale, you can buy five hundred... No, one hundred copies. If you don't buy too much, you are afraid of the emperor. What ideas come up, but we must brush up our existence in front of Mr. Shen."

"This is the Dragon Slaying Skill!"

Old Tan suddenly sighed.

……

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The Son of Heaven flicked through the booklet in front of him, his face full of solemnity.

When Shen Yu applied for a lecture, he agreed, thinking that he would talk about pharmacology, or various things in the Compendium of Materia Medica, and even his heresy that the planet is round.

But... who would have thought that he would actually take out this thing.

"Why didn't you report to me in advance?"

he asked.

"Your Majesty, my negligence."

The commander of Jin Yiwei was also very helpless. Shen Yu asked people to engrave and print the booklet in the basement, and then the booklet appeared before the lecture. At this time, his subordinates did not understand finance and currency. People's things can only be let go - the emperor has allowed Shen Yu to give lectures, do you, a little servant, dare to stop it?

So, the course continued, and the booklets were submitted one by one, and it was already night when they were quickly in the hands of the emperor.

"It's really... really good..."

The emperor flipped through the pamphlets and handouts, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"Your Majesty, why don't you suspend Shen Yu's lecture, and then I will take back the relevant materials?"

"Stopped his lectures? That's because I endorsed his reputation and took back the relevant materials? Do you think those people have copied a lot?"

The emperor looked at the issuance of banknotes behind the numismatics, and said thoughtfully.

People and money are the most important things in Daqian. This Shen Yu caught the key point at the beginning.

"Let him finish the course in these six days."

The emperor rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, he had his own considerations.

There is a passage in Shen Yu's course that is right. Dagan is extremely short of financial management talents, which is very bad.

People and money, people and money!
……

"Everyone, as of today, the course is over."

In a blink of an eye, six days passed. On the last day of class, Shen Yu spoke for an hour, and then the next two hours were for discussion. If you have any questions, ask questions, and Chen Yu will answer them. If you can answer, Shen Yu Following Daming's example, he answered, and if he couldn't answer, Shen Yu said very politely, I'll think about this question again.

Then, at six o'clock in the afternoon, the course was finally completed.

A booklet, plus thick handouts, is sold for a total of two taels of silver. Those who like it can buy this priceless knowledge for the price of buying straw.

"Mr. Shen, I feel that your numismatics has something to say."

This is the last question, Shen Yu said that you are right.

"So, next week, I'll be taking a second course, economics."

Numismatics is just one type of economics. Shen Yu agreed, and I will give you 300 million words...

Simply put, more than 300 words per day, more than [-] words per week, continuous update for six months, guaranteed [-] million words, all dry goods, no moisture, let everyone learn to death.

Well, after Xuanwu settled on the fifth floor, Shen Yu found that he could clearly remember the materials he had studied before.

What?You do not believe?
What is in the booklet is what Shen Yu wants to talk about. What is in the lecture notes is not counted. By the way, even these things are only partly explained in class. You can read and learn the rest slowly by yourself.

……

The bluestone floor tiles were spotless, and the tulle hanging was like haze. From time to time, a beautiful court lady would pass by Shen Yu, her bright eyes scanning this famous and talented man in Beijing.

After finishing the lecture, Shen Yu was invited to meet the emperor the next day, but the place was in the royal garden, and the eunuch who led the way specifically told Mr. Shen, please don't be nervous, His Majesty is very happy.

"Shen Aiqing, you are beyond everyone's expectations."

The emperor didn't make Shen Yu wait any longer, and came here very quickly.

"I don't know Shen Aiqing, what do you think of my place? Not long ago, some people said that my place is too luxurious and wastes people's money."

"The great ones of the country are in the army and in the sacrificial offering.

Among them, the sacrifice is the ancient king. Every once in a while, a grand ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is held, requiring the nobles to take out money and food to sacrifice to heaven. Of course, after the gods have finished eating, the monarch will distribute the food and money to the common people.

Your Majesty's construction of palaces is actually a means of economic adjustment. When the crops are in short supply or when the fields are slack, the people can exchange money and food for their labor. As long as it is well operated, it is a good deed. "

Shen Yu's answer stunned the emperor for a moment, and then he laughed.

"Mr. Shen, you can really talk."

I have heard for a long time that Shen Yu is good at flattering, but now, after hearing what Shen Yu said, the emperor has to admit that some people are born different.

"Money is money only when it is spent. Your Majesty understands this better than my minister."

"Then...why do you write those things and give them to the world?"

Suddenly, the Son of Heaven asked.

What Shen Yu brought out was the art of the emperor. Simply put, he analyzed the financial content of Daqian.

"Your Majesty... There are too few people who know how to manage money. If there are more, a lot of things, it can be better."

Shen Yu replied politely.

"Hehe, hehe..."

The emperor didn't speak, but just looked at Shen Yu quietly.

"Shen Aiqing, what do you want?"

"Set up your mind for the heaven and the earth, set up your life for the people, set up a legacy for the sages of the past, and create peace for all generations."

Shen Yu replied like this.

There were thousands of words and many words of comfort to Shen Yu, but the emperor was silent for a long time.

He waved his hand and told his men to retreat.

"Shen Aiqing, things in the world are often unsatisfactory, do you know why?"

"I understand that it's like His Majesty wants to keep the crown prince, but many people are dissatisfied if he doesn't die."

Shen Yu's answer, like a sharp dagger, pierced the emperor's heart with a sudden pain.

"Very well, very well, I've never seen anyone like you!"

His eyes were bloodshot, he gritted his teeth and said word by word.

"You are a person who understands everything."

"Yes, I understand very well."

Shen Yu smiled calmly at the Son of Heaven.

"Very good, very good... If I were 20 years younger, I would protect you with all my might, but now..."

The emperor just sighed and said nothing more.

"From tomorrow onwards, you will be a fourth-rank Hanlin, Shen Aiqing."

……

In a blink of an eye, the weather gradually warmed up, the cold winter bid farewell to the earth, and it was time for spring sowing.

In the past two months, the most famous event in the capital was Mr. Shen's lectures.

In Guozijian, there are two classes a day, two hours, and one class a week. If you can understand, you can come and listen. If you don’t understand, you don’t have to worry about the time. Mr. Shen will announce in advance what the next class will be before the lecture. And print the corresponding courses, handouts, etc. in advance, so that those who come to listen to the lecture can read it in advance.

Many courses are very useful, such as numismatics, finance, etc. Many courses are very grueling, and not many people like to listen to them, such as geography, such as geological evolution, etc. Naturally, not many people like to listen to them.

However, every class is full of seats, and now those idle children in the capital are forced by their families to develop a new habit of going to the Imperial Academy to monitor classes.

Will someone make trouble?
This, the emperor sent Jin Yiwei to supervise the classroom, and you can sleep——Mr. The lightest punishment is whipping. As for beheading, etc., to be honest, if it gets to that point, no one has done it yet.

Mr. Shen gives free lectures to everyone. These are just the kind that don’t change for a thousand dollars. What more do you want?
All kinds of knowledge were taught, and booklets were printed.

Of course... After the shock at the beginning, all kinds of gossip also increased.

For example, now, some local officials wrote to the emperor, saying why the court didn't distribute corn, sweet potatoes or potato seeds?

The Compendium of Materia Medica is published all over the world, and the three crops are well known to everyone. Many people thought that the imperial court had this kind of treasure, and finally found out, ah, it turned out to be Shen Yu and Shen Zicai. He had news of these three crops, but he hadn't got them yet. .

"Mr. Shen, please tell me where this thing is. I will overcome all difficulties and get these things back."

"Mr. Shen, please think of all people."

"I am willing to go to sea instead of Mr. Shen, and I just ask for Mr. Shen's mercy."

Thus, all kinds of pressure fell on Shen Yu.

……

After finishing today's lesson, Shen Yu rode in a carriage and returned to his home near the Imperial College.

His Majesty gave him a lot of guards and maids, but he rejected them one by one. He also refused to accept the beauties and servants sent by others. The one who took care of him daily was a maid, and he lived an ordinary life like this.

During the day, they give lectures and receive visitors, and at night... they study behind closed doors. After the lecture notes are written, they will be taken out of the basement and handed over to the engraver.

He didn't buy real estate in the capital, and he didn't make money with others. Although many people used the methods he gave to find ways to make money, and some people gave him money, they were all rejected by him.

His only industry is a printing factory, which employs the best engraving workers and printing talents, hoards a large amount of paper and ink, and puts them in Xue's courtyard.

"Mr. Shen, please stay."

At the door of the house, Shen Yu was blocked, and some elders from the capital brought local specialties. Of course, it was also a sign of Qiqi Aiai, Mr. Shen, can you tell the emperor the whereabouts of the three treasures, so that the emperor can go hunting for them.

You are a scholar, thousands of miles away is too dangerous, there is no need to go in person, now the world is full of people, and everyone is willing to serve you.

The white-haired old man was very restrained. It could be seen that his hands and feet had been working for a long time. There was also a child standing aside shyly, begging Mr. Shen. .

"Old man, I will think about it. Please rest assured that this is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. Of course I will have a perfect plan."

Shen Yu sent the old gentleman away, and smiled mockingly.

An old man, who has worked all his life and does not know martial arts, can come before him. What does this mean?
Now that he has shown his talent, some people don't want him to go.

Such a good old scalper, if he doesn't fight for power and profit, how can he be willing to kill and eat it?

Boiling frogs in warm water has begun. Today this one persuades you, tomorrow that one persuades you, and in the end... you will naturally agree.
