Chapter 159

In Yunyang County, Mr. Xu got the chance to be promoted because of the appearance of two Jinshi in his jurisdiction. On his side, not to mention the Jinshi, at least a few scholars.

For people, read more to understand things, and to be more yearning and educated.

Du Youzhong went to Chenzhou not only to pay taxes, but also to report this matter. Moreover, he arranged for Hu Xin to be an instructor.If he is free, he will also go to the county school to give lectures to the students.

Hu was a little worried, fearing that Hu Xin would not be able to hold on to the scene when he was young.

Du Youzhong said that Hu thought too much and young people should exercise more.And there is also Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang is an expert in publicity, and he has publicized Du Youzhong's achievements. Why did he teach at Jinxi Academy? Many of the students he taught were child students.
Moreover, he also taught a scholar, a Juren, and the youngest son of County Magistrate Du is also very likely to be a scholar.

Anyway, the meaning is to say that with their county magistrate, there will definitely be a few scholars in Pengze County.

Let the young master of the rich family come over first to solve the money problem. After all, the funds allocated by the county school are not too much, only 'robbing the rich and helping the poor'.

Then they vigorously promoted the matter of the basic test. The top five are free to study in the county school, but you have to keep it up, because they will take the test again every few months. If you regress , then one year later, you will have to pay.

Of course, students are excluded, that is, scholars are excluded, but there are basically no scholars in Pengze County.

Master Wang made such a publicity, that big family, the rich family is really eager to go to the county school to study.

After hearing this, Du Yu said: "It's better to limit the number of places. This way, there is a limit on the number of places, so that everyone can know that you can't enter the county school with money, but it will be better for the reputation of the county school."

This was brought up by Du Yu when he was listening to his father, his eldest cousin, and Master Wang talking about the county school during dinner.

Let everyone know that the county school is a sacred place, not everyone can enter.

Once the quota is enough, no matter how rich you are, it will not be possible to give away a mountain of gold and silver.

Upon hearing this, Master Wang clapped his hands and said, "Okay, that's a good idea. We don't have enough manpower, and limiting the number of people also means that we are striving for excellence, and there is a quota limit. At that time, whoever is going to push back and forth, Compared with actively paying taxes, then this county school is not so easy to get into." It is like doing multiple things in one fell swoop, through this county school, government affairs are also connected. less?

If you offend the magistrate of the county, you will not be able to enter the county school.Let those thorns calm down a little.

Because there are few of them, everyone eats together, even Mrs. Wang and her two children are the same.

"This is also a chance for those private school teachers." Otherwise, everyone would run to the county school, and those private school teachers would have no use for them, so they would have to complain.Keep a line in front of people so that we can meet later.

Hu Xin said: "Speaking of Mr. Private School, I thought, why don't even the Mr. from the county school take the test, and then hire them to teach and educate people."

Du Youzhong nodded and said, "This is a good idea, then let's talk to Mr. first."

Good gentlemen are also an attraction to students. Although there are already Hu Xin, a juren, and Du Youzhong, an extracurricular tutor, some famous local gentlemen can enter the county school, which will improve the reputation of the county school. .

"Don't be an arrogant gentleman. I'm here to cultivate talents. If you study only to cultivate your sentiments, it's better to stay at home." Du Youzhong knew that some people thought they were high-spirited and thought they had a lot of knowledge. Only when others ask for it in person will they come out reluctantly. Just like that, they have to refuse several times. If you want Du Youzhong to say, it's just pretending, which is very useless.

If you are really knowledgeable, why hasn't Pengze County produced a scholar yet?
Now that the autumn harvest is over, such a major event in the county government will naturally attract the attention of the whole county. There are few scholars in Pengze County, but it does not prevent other counties from coming to take the exam for this county scholar. If you can become a county If you are a student, you can be regarded as a 'civil servant', and all you receive are public rations.

Because of the emphasis on this matter, Du Youzhong personally checked the husband, and finally took three husbands.At that time, board and lodging will be in the county school, and there will be three taels of silver every month.This is very good in Pengze County.An ordinary private school teacher can earn one or two taels of silver a month, which is more than enough, but here is three taels, which is good for food and housing.

As soon as the matter of the county school came out, Zhu Dahu, a big seafood player in the county, came to 'surrender' and directly hired a group of masons to repair houses for the county school for free.

Because Zhu Dahu sells seafood, his family is very rich, and he also has descendants in his family. Although he is rich, he also thinks that his descendants will be admitted to fame and honor their ancestors.

After all, if you are rich, you are rich, but is it not to say that everything is inferior, but education is high?

Others saw that this Zhu Dahu was ahead of him, and they all regretted it. Why didn't they think of this?Let this Zhu Seafood take the lead, and now some of his children and grandchildren must be able to enter the county school.

They heard that there is still a quota limit for this county school. Everyone is very competitive now, okay?

Zhu Dahu despised these people in his heart. If he hadn't found Mr. Wang, the confidant of County Magistrate Du, how would he know about this?
So taking the first step, Master Wang has already promised himself that he will definitely give the Zhu family two places at that time. Although it is a little less, it is not bad to have two.

Of course, Du Youzhong must have allowed Mr. Wang to do this. It is definitely not enough to rely on the tax revenue in the yamen. They willingly came to give money.

The unspoken rules are used well, and it is also beneficial to everyone.And this is not considered bribery, everyone is for the sake of running the county school well.

Du Youzhong also praised Zhu Dahu in front of the gentry for his dedication to giving Zhu Dahu to the United States for the sake of the descendants of Pengze County.Give others regret.

Of course, I heard that the county government here still lacks tables, chairs, beds, etc. for the students. Although others are not as popular as Zhu Dahu, they all understand and take the initiative to do it.

Afterwards, the county school was finally refurbished, and Du Youzhong asked someone to engrave a stele of merit. The big families who made the county school look new this time were all engraved on the stone tablet, "Let the descendants of Pengze County remember your deeds." Credit!" Du Youzhong said.

But these big families were moved and excited. These people are rich, but they are short of the reputation that will last forever. If the Du county magistrate does this, whoever comes to this county school to study will remember their names. In the past, they paid for their children and grandchildren, but now they are paying for it, so happy!Just let them pay again, they are all happy.

Moreover, they will maintain this monument of merit and virtue all the time, even if other county magistrates come, they will not let this monument of merit and virtue disappear.

Du Youzhong played it really beautifully.Not only did the county school have a new student without spending the county government's money, but it also made people appreciate him from the bottom of their hearts.

The county magistrate, Qin Chengyi, also had to admire this new county magistrate. Looking at him, this person is different from others. No wonder he can only be the county magistrate, but he can be the magistrate.

He knew how these rich people in Pengze County were stingy, and asking them to take money would kill them.

Now these people don't talk about taking money, they are scrambling to take out money.

Now there is no need to worry about the maintenance of the county school!

Next, it was naturally the exams for the students. Zhu Dahu also asked his sons and grandsons to take the exams together. He didn't want to fight for the free quota, but thought that maybe his sons and grandsons would be in the exam. , there will be one more spot if this gentleman is interested in it.

This time the county school only recruited forty students, too many people were not conducive to teaching.

Hu Xin came up with the questions himself, and he took three gentlemen to invigilate the exam.

I persuaded Du Youzhong in Pengze County and even the village to send messengers to publicize it. If you really have the talent for reading, you might as well come over and have a try.

If you can get into the top five, you can study in the county school for free for a year.This is also a great temptation for those poor students. It's not that Du Youzhong doesn't want to teach them all, but because his family is poor. So it's better to choose the best.

He wants the best.

After three days of exams, Hu Xin and the three gentlemen read the test papers of these students, discussed repeatedly, and finally decided on the top five, and posted the names and places of origin of the top five on the front of the county office. In the place of official documents, these five students can study the county school for one year for free, with food and housing included.

Just bring your own bedroll and clothes.

One of the gentlemen said: "There is a student here whose family is quite rich, shouldn't it be?"

Hu Xin said: "We can't be biased. It is true that it is to allow more poor students to study, but those who have money from their families have been admitted to the top five by their own ability. Why should we deprive them of What's more, it's not wrong for his family to have money. "

So stick to the original result.The gentleman didn't say anything after hearing this. After all, what Hu Xin said made sense. They shouldn't have a mentality of hating the rich, that's not good.

The other 35 students, the dozen or so students who put aside the unspoken rules, were already full.

However, the dozen or so students who came in under the unspoken rules expressed that they must pay the tuition fees, and they can afford it anyway.

The big money has been paid out, and the small money is even more indifferent.

And Zhu Dahu was even more delighted, it turned out that one of the top five was his grandson!That is, the gentleman who asked Hu Xin if he needed to be replaced earlier.
