At this moment, outside the government office, Xi Yu stood with his hands behind his hands, nodded approvingly to Chen Deng, and said, "It's great that Yuan Long can understand the righteousness so well."

"From today on, I allow you to enter the school directly to teach as a teacher without taking the exam. Zhuge Kongming manages the academic staff. You can ask him for advice on relevant matters."

"Thank you Mr. Xi."

After saying this, Chen Deng bowed deeply to Xi Yu, his face full of justice.

But deep down in his heart, he felt extremely uncomfortable, as if he was bleeding: I think that I, Chen Deng, am a man who has studied Confucianism, but now I have to bow to the opera master for the sake of the position of a deviant teacher.

It's really ridiculous and sad.

……

Xi Yu was very happy when Cao Ang arrived, and said with a smile, "Ang'er, come with me, we will go to the government office to talk."

"Okay, uncle."

Cao Ang smiled and then followed Xi Yu into the government office.

After Xuzhou's school-running policy spread quickly, various forces responded with mixed responses.

Some people were curious, some were amazed, and some were very angry. These people came to Xiapi City with their own thoughts.

Countless carriages gathered outside Xiapi City. According to Xi Yu's regulations, the carriages were only put into the outer city after checking that there were no weapons or people with suspicious identities in the carriages.

Most of the people living in the outer city are common people and traders.

At this moment, several carriages slowly came to the door of the post house, and then a group of Confucian scholars got off the carriages.

The leader is a little older and belongs to a prominent family in Wancheng, Mr. Qiao.

There had been constant wars before, and Duke Qiao heard that Xuzhou was implementing benevolent policies, that there were no bandits and bandits in Xuzhou city, and that the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, so the Qiao family abandoned their family business and came to Xuzhou.

Qiao Gong originally planned to live in seclusion in Xuzhou, but he heard that Xi Yu was a talented person with profound knowledge and high reputation. He also had a complete book of heaven and knew everything about the world.

In order to play Yu's plan, the people of Xuzhou volunteered to farm, and the ten farming households were organized into one to help each other.

Mr. Qiao was very curious about such a divine man, so he wanted to come and inquire about it.

And this time there is another person who is grieving with him, this person's name is Huang Chengyan.

Huang Chengyan was Liu Biao's brother-in-law. He was very important to his reputation and rarely interacted with people in Jingzhou.

At this moment, behind Qiao Gong and Huang Chengyan, followed a scribe with a very arrogant look. This man's face was very ugly and his skin was as dark as carbon.

This person's name is Pang Tong, and his courtesy name is Shiyuan.

Speaking of Pang Tong, there is one well-known fact.

Sima Hui of Yingchuan liked elegance the most and was good at understanding people. Before Pang Tong met Sima Hui, Huang Chengyan had a good personal relationship with Pang Tong.

Sima Hui praised Pang Tong, saying that this person may not be an ordinary person in the future, but he still needs to make some decisions before making a final decision.

Therefore, many people are looking forward to a real discussion between Sima Hui and Pang Tong, or to sell it at a price.

Most of the silver ornaments near Xiangyang lived in seclusion somewhere. After their fame spread far and wide, if the emperor wanted to seek talents and wanted to serve as officials, they would come out and gain a more satisfactory status and status.

If you fail to meet the enlightened master, you will have no choice but to live a life of peace and tranquility.

Nowadays, these people are closest to Xuzhou, so they will naturally become the first batch of Confucian scholars to arrive in Xuzhou.

After entering the post house, Huang Chengyan said, "Mr. Qiao has been working hard all the way. How about I treat you to a meal tonight?"

Hearing this, Duke Qiao gently stroked his beard, shook his head and said with a smile, "This is not possible."

"Now, I am just a homeless person. I originally planned to find a place to live in Xiapi City. After I have settled in, I will invite Mr. Huang and Mr. Shiyuan to sit down together."

"This... is so good."

Afterwards, the three of them stayed at the post house. Huang Chengyan and Pang Tong stayed there, while Mr. Qiao continued to look for a home.

Pang Tong and Huang Chengyan said, "This place seems to be peaceful and clean, which is indeed commendable, but it cannot be compared with the nine counties of Jingxiang and Jingxiang with its vast territory and abundant resources!"

"Also, this opera master may indeed have great talents, but he actually wants to abolish Confucianism. This plan will definitely be criticized by everyone, and I, Pang Shiyuan, will be the first to discuss it with him!"

"Mr. Huang, you will stay alone for the time being. I will go meet Mr. Drama immediately."

Seeing this, Huang Chengyan smiled and said, "Shiyuan, you and I have known each other for many years. We are not outsiders. I have money. You can live here in peace and don't have to worry about money..."

Huang Chengyan saw through Pang Tong's thoughts. Pang Tong was slightly stunned. He turned his head arrogantly and rolled his eyes at Huang Chengyan, "I, I..."

"Why did you say this, sir? Never did I say that I didn't have money to stay... This is..."

Pang Tong was stammering when he spoke, "I want to rectify the name of Confucianism! I won't joke with you, I will go to the Academy of Sciences to have a look."

After saying that, Pang Tong walked outside. After walking a few steps, he turned around and said to Huang Chengyan, "Remember to leave a room for me!"

Afterwards, Pang Tong walked straight towards the Academy of Sciences.

After Pang Tong left the post house, Huang Chengyan also had some thoughts on Xiyu's strategy for running a school.

Like other Confucian scholars, when he was still in Jingzhou, Huang Chengyan was also very angry when he heard about Xuzhou's deviant schools.

However, on the way to Xuzhou, Huang Chengyan's anger gradually calmed down, and he thought carefully about running a school.

Although Confucianism is good, in today's troubled times, wars are constantly going on, and most generals and soldiers have never studied Confucianism. It would be very difficult to control wars with virtue.

Is it possible that when the troops are approaching the city, they can retreat by talking loudly and arguing with each other?

In today's troubled times, if you want to help the Han Dynasty, only practical learning is possible!

Huang Chengyan deeply admired the wonders of Xi Yu’s school-running strategy.

However, other southern celebrities still cannot understand how engineering, agriculture, and business can be compared with Confucianism.

……

Pang unified the formation on foot and arrived at the gate of the inner city. It was guarded by guards and was heavily guarded, making it impossible to enter easily.

Looking at the entire Xiapi City, compared with previous years, the city is now much thicker due to the strong fortifications, almost half the height, and the city has become much thicker.

It has truly become a big city.

Pang Tong thought to himself: The city is still like this. Compared with the city, which has been expanded a lot, I am afraid that the city alone can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. It is really unimaginable. "This master, there is really a lot of money..."

Pang Tong stood at the door for a long time, thinking about it again and again, and then said to the guard, "Pang Tong is in Xiangyang. I'm here to pay a visit to the opera master. Please inform me."

Hearing Pang Tong's words, several guards at the door looked embarrassed and replied, "Master Xi has already ordered us to beware of famous people, especially people like you who announce their names and say that they are here to pay a visit.

, but I was empty-handed and didn’t bring anything..."

Nowadays, Master Xi is not something anyone can see if they want.

"Even if you are having a banquet, you still need to bring some handkerchiefs. You also need good wine, good meat, and good tea..."

"If the people from the outer city come to pay homage, the drama master will naturally meet each other. As for the celebrities, the drama master has something to say but does not see them."

Hearing this, Pang Tong was stunned for a moment, and even blushed from his face to his neck: "Master, what's so important about this?!"

But...it does make sense.

"Shi Yuan?"

Just when he was in trouble, Pang Tong suddenly heard someone calling him.

He looked back and saw a man about to enter the city. Behind him were a book boy and twelve black-armored cavalry who were skilled in steel-making.

This person is wearing a white robe, with long hair tied behind his head, and is elegant and energetic.

"Kong Ming? When did you come here?"

As soon as Pang Tong finished speaking, the guard in front of the door bowed deeply when he saw Zhuge Liang, "My lord, have you just finished inspecting the fields?"

Zhuge Liang said to the guard, "That's right. Open the city gate quickly. This gentleman is my friend."

The guard looked stunned, then opened the city gate and said, "Okay, sir."

Seeing that Zhuge Liang was respected by the guards and must now have a high status, Pang Tong felt really uncomfortable in his heart. He never thought that he was the same age as Zhuge Liang and was also recommended by celebrities in Jingzhou, but now...

After the city gate opened, Zhuge Liang led Pang Tong into the city. Pang Tong's face suddenly changed, and he was shocked by the novel things around him.

Before that, Pang Tong had also visited Xiapi City. At that time, only the government offices used stone for houses in the city, but now, almost all houses use stone.

Zhuge Liang saw Pang Tong's surprise and immediately explained to him, "This material is made of concrete and designed by the Academy of Sciences."

Although Pang Tong didn't understand what concrete technology was, he could only nod his head, "Oh, I see..."

Soon, Pang Tongyou noticed the novelty of the ground, and was even more surprised: the ground was made of bluestone slabs, neat and flat, without any unevenness. When he stepped on the thin bottom, it was as comfortable as a palace.

When he was in the outer city just now, Pang Tong noticed that there were still gravel on the road and there were traces of carriage wheels. Now that he was in the inner city, it was completely different.

Pang Tong was amazed in his heart and asked, "Kong Ming, are you serving as an official under a master of opera now?"

Zhuge Liang nodded and replied, "Well, although I am young and have insufficient qualifications, the Opera Master appoints people on their merits. He does not mind that I come from a poor background and appointed me as the head of the Academic Affairs Council and in charge of many teaching matters in the school."

Zhuge Liang said with a bit of pride, "Master Xi asked me to take care of the farmers in Xuzhou. Now, the situation in Xuzhou is very good. This autumn, there will be an unprecedented bumper harvest."

Pang Tong looked slightly startled and exclaimed, "Now, summer is about to begin, but many places in Jingzhou have not had rain for many days. I am afraid that a drought is coming."

Zhuge Liang showed no signs of worry and said with a smile, "Don't worry. The rainy season in the hinterland of Jingzhou is after January or February. Farming must be carried out carefully during this period. It is not suitable for large-scale farming. It is best to keep a few meters apart."<
