Unparalleled Fortune in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 189 The Academy
Just after lunch the next day, Tong Cheng'er entered the palace with Yinzhen.

Then she met Wu Fujin.

The two were in the same class as the showgirls, but because of Tong Cheng'er's own reasons, even after staying in Chuxiu Palace for a while, most of them didn't recognize each other, so when she saw Wu Fujin, she still felt strange.

But Wu Fujin was no stranger to her, and Tong Cheng'er was dumbfounded when she said something about the draft, so she could only respond casually.

But from the looks of it, Wu Fujin is a very talkative person, and he seems to be quite measured.

She quite likes such a sister-in-law.

Although she is not afraid of arguing with others, she is not idle and likes to argue with others.

Even if the royal sisters-in-law don't meet much, it's best if they can get along in harmony.

As soon as she came out of the palace, Tong Cheng'er saw Ru Lan coming over with a smile and said, "Fu Jin, the account book for the first half of the year has been delivered, would you like to have a look at it?"

She wanted to refuse at first, but after thinking about it, she nodded: "Okay, bring the account book here."

As a high-achieving student who graduated from a financial management major, she went to a first-class university, and her grades were also ranked high. Naturally, the account book is not a problem for her.

In particular, the method of keeping accounts in this ledger all came from her.

There are a lot of ledgers, some for champions, some for jewelry shops, some for pencils, and some for sofas.

It was delivered all at once.

Tong Cheng'er looked at so many ledgers, and couldn't help but said, "It's as if we made an appointment, and they were all delivered together."

Ru Lan: "That's not true. The servant and Ru Xue did the math first before bringing it to you."

"So this is ah!"

She trusted Ruxue and Rulan Tong Cheng'er, seeing so many ledgers, she suddenly didn't want to read them.

"Tell me the number, remove the miscellaneous expenses, and how much you will earn."

Ru Lan said the number, and Tong Cheng'er's eyes widened in surprise.

How long has it been since: "Why are there so many?" It's more than 200 million taels last time.

Can you make money like this?
So unexpected.

Ru Lan: "The servant heard that brother Jiu made a lot of noise on the sofa. The sofa and pencils are selling very well."

She could have imagined that the benefits would be huge, but the result was still beyond her expectation.

Holding such a sum of money in her hand, Tong Chenger's heart bulged.

These are only hers. As far as she knows, Yinzhen still has private property, and it will not be less than hers. In this way, the two of them together are equivalent to half of the national treasury!
Tong Cheng'er thought it was an exaggeration when I heard the term "wealth can rival a country" before, but now it seems that being rich and rivaling a country is not particularly difficult!

How long has it been? Not to mention the wealth can rival the country, but also half the country.

"Ru Lan, how do you spend so much money?"

Food and clothing can't be used, even if she enjoys it again, she can't spend so much money!

Too much money is also worrying about people.

Ru Lan doesn't know how to spend money.

It's not that I don't know, it's just that I don't know how to spend such a large amount of money.

"Fu Jin, this slave doesn't know how to spend it." Ru Lan said helplessly.

Tong Cheng'er asked this question once.

After thinking about it all afternoon, Tong Cheng'er finally set her sights on education.

It's not that she dislikes that she has a lot of money, it's just that having a lot of money may not be a good thing, especially with her identity and the era she lives in.

In feudal dynasties, it can be said that the emperor is the etiquette, and his own money is almost the same as the treasury.

So she had to find a way to spend money quickly.

In the evening, Tong Cheng'er shared her thoughts with Yinzhen.

Yinzhen was quite surprised to hear Xiao Fujin said that he wanted to build an academy.

He was curious: "Why do you think of building an academy?"

"Ru Lan told me about the income in the first half of the year. It's too much. I think it's better to spend some."

"So you thought of building an academy?"

Tong Cheng'er nodded: "Yes, I think this is what I should do most now."

Yinzhen has no objection, but the academy was not built just because it was built.

How to build?
Who will be responsible for building it?
What kind of building?
What kind of students do you accept?
……

These issues need to be considered carefully.

"Do you have any ideas?"

Tong Cheng'er really has some ideas.

Think of it with reference to the modern nine-year compulsory education.

Of course, she didn't have the skills to do nine-year compulsory education.

After all, that's really expensive.

"I have two thoughts."

"The first idea is to build an academy in every county-level area of ​​the country. The academy accepts a certain number of students, but entering such an academy requires an examination. Only those who pass the grades can enter the academy to study. During the study period, all fees are exempted, and provide Pens, inks, papers and inkstones...Of course, the stalls would be relatively large and difficult to control."

That's the first thought: "What about the second thought?"

"The second idea is to let all the children go to school only within the capital city. Of course, they can only study for five years..."

Tong Cheng'er finished talking about two ideas, each with its own characteristics.

Tong Cheng'er: "Which one do you think is better?"

Yinzhen doesn't know which one is better for the time being.

"The silver is yours, what do you think?"

Tong Cheng'er shook her head: "I haven't figured it out yet."

After a while, Tong Cheng'er said again: "Actually, I prefer to start universal education in the capital."

Yinzhen was curious: "Why?"

"Maybe the sky is high and the emperor is far away. If the stall is too big, I'm afraid the money won't be used for real."

Although the capital city has to go through the hands of some people, it will be better under the nose.

After the capital is finished, there will be a template at that time, and the possibility of being fooled will not be too great.

"You're right, it's better to start from the capital."

Hearing what Yinzhen said, Tong Cheng'er decided: "Then do this."

"Have you thought about it?"

"Think about it, I'll go find someone tomorrow."

She can't do it, this matter has to be handled by a special person, and she is responsible for paying the money.

"By the way, do you have anyone suitable for you?"

Yinzhen: "There should be some, but I will tell you the specific candidates tomorrow."

"Okay, it doesn't matter if it's earlier or later."

After talking about this matter, Yinzhen looked at her.

Tong Cheng'er looked a little embarrassed, her face flushed: "What are you doing?"

Yinzhen laughed: "What do you think?"

Tong Cheng'er felt a little "danger".

"Don't come here!"

"I want to discuss the meaning of life with Cheng'er, such as the first step of giving birth."

First steps to having a baby?
The first step... isn't it to create a human?
Tong Cheng'er was about to speak, but he kissed her to seal it.

"Woooooooo..."

"Relax, let's continue."

The night is still long, it is almost winter, and the house is still full of spring.

Su Peisheng listened at the door, and ordered the little eunuch below: "Prepare water."

"Yes"

The next day, Yinzhen sent the person over in the afternoon, and after chatting with the person, Tong Cheng'er felt that it was the person Yinzhen had found.

So reliable.

When Yinzhen returned home at night, Tong Cheng'er praised the man, and Yinzhen suddenly felt that today's dinner was a bit sour!
