Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 985 Famous Teachers Produce Excellent Apprentices

  The monarch and his ministers are right, what matters is fate.

  Fate has come.

  Then even if it is a fart, the other party will think it is delicious.

  Emperor Hongzhi's current mood is probably like this.

  It smells so good!

   Liu Wenshan and Wang Bushi entered the palace to have an audience, and they played against His Majesty for three hours.

   It was not until the sky was full of rays of light, and a ray of yellow fell on the glazed tiles of Daming Palace, that the two of them left the palace slowly.

  At the gate of the Meridian Gate, Liu Wenshan and Wang Bushi looked at each other.

   Just like the way out of the palace, they continued to be silent.

  Meet each other and smile to obliterate grievances?

   This is bullshit.

   I frankly hang the name of your mentor Fang Jifan on the door of my house. Fang Jifan is worse than a dog when you write a letter. You Liu Wenshan and I have a try.

  Wang Bushi had a stern face, but his expression was still dignified.

   Liu Wenshan was smiling, but he didn't say much.

  Afterwards, the carriages and horses of the two came separately, so... everyone boarded the carriage quietly.

   Liu Wenshan was in the car, full of emotions, as if in a trance.

  Wang Bushi was in the car, leaning on the sofa, pursing his lips, speechless, but not at all calm in his heart.

   Those **** clear streams are like flies.

As for Fang Jifan... well, he just taught a few good students, so Liu Wenshan has to admit that he is indeed a great talent, just now... hey, why didn't he say hello to him? After all... this person can be regarded as his own teaching Teacher.

  …

  Passing by the bookstore, this inconspicuous little bookstore was overcrowded and very noisy.

  People flocked into the bookstore.

   "Is there a Wealth of Nations...is there..."

   "Why is there no more, let's go to the next one."

   Whoever controls the future is invincible.

  The Wealth of Nations can give people insight into tomorrow, which is a terrible thing.

  The news has spread all over the world. The vast majority of people in this world are always flattering their feet, belatedly...

  …

  Fengtian Temple...

  At this time, Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly, with his hands behind his back, his eyes fell on one spot, but he was thoughtful, as if he was still digesting what Liu Wenshan and Wang Bushi said today.

   After a long time, Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Xiao Jing and said, "Xiao Banban, do you understand?"

  Xiao Jing: "..."

"say."

  Emperor Hongzhi likes to talk to Xiao Jing, after all, this person has been with him for many years.

  As the son of heaven, he is actually lonely. In this deep palace, he is a loner, and he must have someone to talk to him occasionally to make him appear to be so human.

  Xiao Jing said with a bitter face: "I understand a little bit."

"Tell me."

  Xiao Jing thought for a while and said: "There is an invisible hand in the market, it controls everything..."

   "You still don't understand!" Emperor Hongzhi interrupted immediately: "Study hard in the future."

  Xiao Jing had no choice but to say: "Yes, this servant must study hard in the future."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded his head, he was silent for a long time, and then said again: "I intend to let Liu Wenshan be the servant of the household department, but... I also thought about this Theory of the Wealth of Nations... still needs to be perfected, or order him to be a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, and order him to compile it. Revision of the Wealth of Nations..."

Hanlin Servant and Servant, one step further, is the Hanlin University Bachelor, which is an extremely noble position. Even, every once in a while, the lectures are almost all presided over by the Hanlin University Bachelor and the Servant Bachelor. Power, one can imagine.

  Xiao Jing's heart was sour, but he still hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is holy, Liu Wenshan is really amazing."

Emperor Hongzhi said again: "There is also the king who is not an official. He is very intelligent and unusual. He mentioned his feelings about reading The Wealth of Nations today, which is different from Liu Wenshan. Although this person was born out of The Wealth of Nations, his vision But it is unusual, this person... can be of great use in the future, let him be a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, and let him wait for the imperial edict."

   Xiao Jing has become numb.

   Another promising person.

The king was not an official, but he was just a servant, but with the addition of a bachelor, it was completely different, not only the grade was directly raised, but also from the literature and history museum to the waiting room, which was almost the chief officer of the waiting room. Yes, the status can be imagined.

  In the future, His Majesty may summon him at any time to inquire about financial affairs. This person, it is difficult to say, may even have a chance to enter the cabinet like Liu Wenshan.

  Xiao Jing said very habitually: "Your Majesty cherishes talents so much...it's really holy..."

"What are you holy?" Emperor Hongzhi looked at Xiao Jing, his face turned livid. He couldn't bear to see such inexplicable sycophants, and said with a cold snort: "If I am a holy man, why did I not know about these two gentlemen until now?" You are right. If I am a sage, if Liu Wenshan did not strongly oppose it, and Fang Jifan was there to speak for Liu Wenshan, I would have sealed up the trading market. How can I be a sage? Hmph, the reason why I am not a sage is because you are always around Such a person who is always sage, if you say what I say, you say sage, so can I be sage? You have served me for many years, what else have you said besides sage? In the list of teachers, there is a sentence called Suo good way by counseling, check Na Yayan, the meaning of these words is that those who are the emperor should unreservedly offer loyal suggestions and adopt correct opinions. The advice of Liu Wenshan and others is to sue good ways by counseling, As for the so-called sage you speak of, I need to be careful and vigilant, only in this way can I judge Naya's words."

   Xiao Jing nodded yes, still smiling, but there were tears in his smile.

  ...

  The carriage has just arrived at the school.

   Outside the academy, it was boiling.

   Crowds of people, pitch black.

  Countless students lined up one after another.

   Wang Shouren, Tang Yin, Jiang Chen and others were also waiting here, all smiling.

  As soon as the carriage stopped, Liu Wenshan just got out of the carriage when a figure rushed towards him and hugged him.

   is...a teacher...

   Liu Wenshan was stunned.

After Fang Jifan gave him a warm hug, he didn't give him a lingering French wet kiss. He turned around and ordered loudly: "The firecrackers sounded for me, applaud, everyone laughed. Liu Wenshan, Liu Wenshan, my teacher didn't love you in vain, you really As expected of the most beloved disciple of the teacher, haha... come, come, come..."

   Liu Wenshan's face was numb, and when he looked up, he felt a little dizzy.

   There were huge crowds of people, everyone was smiling and applauding.

  The firecrackers sounded, and the face of the teacher was full of joy. The teacher held his hand, raised his head and chest, with a proud face, but Liu Wenshan was... a face of bewildered.

  Master...I really have nothing to say to myself.

   "Everyone gives way, everyone gives way..."

Fang Jifan separated the excited crowd, these people are very annoying, and he loves to hold his feet for his teacher, this is because of his habit, why are you here to join in the fun, it seems that Liu Wenshan has something to do with you melons Yes, this is all the result of my Fang Jifan's daily strict teaching. Famous teachers produce excellent apprentices, this is the ultimate truth.

  Finally separated from the crowd and entered the study, Fang Jifan finally let out a breath.

  The Theory of the Wealth of Nations is indeed remarkable, and it has epoch-making significance.

  In the future... even The Wealth of Nations may be included in the Imperial Academy, and once it enters the Imperial Academy, it may become a textbook for future emperors.

  The significance of this book does not lie in how correct it is, how it understands the principles of the economy, or how business activities are directly linked to the rule of the king and the well-being of the country. The truly epoch-making significance lies in the fact that this is the first book in which people put aside benevolence, righteousness and morality, and use the most naked interests to observe the entire national economy and people's livelihood with those superficial sages and inner kings.

  It opens a new door for the people of the world.

  This door may have limited light, but once it sees the light, it will definitely have a profound impact on the world.

  That's right, this is written by my dear and beloved disciple Liu Wenshan!

Fang Jifan sat down with a smile on his face and looked at the thin Liu Wenshan. It just occurred to him that in the past two years, Liu Wenshan must have experienced countless hardships in order to study the principles of business. And adding examples, I don't know how much thought it took.

   It's really not easy.

  Every child is not easy.

   "Teacher..." Liu Wenshan had already bowed down, and choked up again.

   "Get up, get up, don't knock your knees, pay attention to your body." Fang Jifan said with emotion.

   "The teacher treats the students with such kindness as a mountain..."

"Don't talk about this. Among all the disciples, the mentor has always admired you. Do you know why? Because you are like a bamboo, with a toughness like bamboo tendons inside. Today, His Majesty told you, is it a dragon?" Where is Yan Dayue?"

   Liu Wenshan nodded and said: "Your Majesty has repeatedly said yes, and even praised your teacher."

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "What is there to praise? I recruit talented people, and I accept such outstanding people as you into my sect, and teach them carefully. Is it because of His Majesty's praise? This is because I hope you can get my true biography. It is beneficial to the world, it is beneficial to people... no, it is beneficial to the common people. Oh, I heard that the scum of the world also has an audience?"

   "Yes. His name is Wang Bushi."

  Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Wang Bushi, didn't you thank him for being a teacher?"

  Liu Wenshan thought for a while, and said honestly: "Master...no!"

"He has no conscience." Fang Jifan couldn't help baring his teeth: "This dog-like thing, if I hadn't ridiculed him and called him a scum in the world, making him notorious, he would probably still be a clear stream who only knows what he knows. Now that I have learned a little truth from my disciple, my tail is soaring to the sky. People’s hearts are really vicious and terrifying. How can there be such brazen people in the world? Wang Bushi, let him continue to soak in the clear stream in obscurity like this, and let him rot and sink day by day!"

   Liu Wenshan wanted to say something, but found that there seemed to be nothing to say, so he simply shut up.
