For several days, Fang Zhengyi took Ali Bai around the capital.

Fang Zhengyi took him to visit all the shops, various academies and scenic spots, and even some less important offices in the capital.

Although Ali Bai had fun, he was really a little confused.

Fang Zhengyi's impression in his mind had been greatly changed without even realizing it.

Grand Master Paba said he was unusual and unconventional.

It's true... This person is too open-minded and upright! He seems to say whatever he has in mind. I'll tell you from the bottom of my heart, ordinary people definitely don't have this tolerance.

He was also present when he was teaching his subordinates, and he clearly understood rewards and punishments. Whenever he gave instructions, he was sure to be precise and clear, and never made any detours.

Moreover, he was full of swear words and spit, and he was extremely arrogant and looked like a hooligan.

Even in the Kingdom of Jin, it is almost impossible to find such officials?

With such a straight-tempered person, why did the Imperial Master ask him to be careful again and again... Alibai was confused.

However, Grand Master Paba's ability and influence in the Kingdom of Jin are obvious to all. If such a person asks him to guard against Fang Zhengyi, it will definitely not be in vain.

Therefore, Alibai still has fears in his heart and remains vigilant at all times.

Fang Zhengyi has also been quite depressed these days, and he didn't ask this guy anything useful.

Silly, it seems that he really has no status in the country and is not taken seriously.

It’s quite exciting to talk about novels and the country.

He probably came here purely to give gifts.

However, there were still some unusual things that Fang Zhengyi keenly noticed. This kid was guarding himself.

I don't know why, but it's not a good thing.

If something goes wrong later on when we go to the Kingdom of Jin, we will have to rely on Ali Bai in case of unexpected situations.

We have to find a way to develop him into a offline...

On this day, Fang Zheng was packing up his official duties, while Ali Bai was sitting quietly beside him.

There was also a stack of official documents beside him, and Fang Zhengyi specially showed them to him to relieve his boredom. They were nothing important.

It's nothing more than punishing some petty officials and the like.

After a long time, Fang Zheng gathered the official documents at hand and put them on the table. He raised his head and said, "Second Prince, we are not going to the theater today. How about we go to Dongjiao University to have a look?"

Ali Bai's heart skipped a beat.

Eastern Suburbs University... I think I've heard of it in the country, it's a special place.

Moreover, he had also heard that Fang Zhengyi was the president of Eastern Suburb University in the past few days in the capital.

This is a very important place and it seems necessary to visit it in person.

"Okay, everything will be arranged by Mr. Fang."

...

Outside the gate of Dongjiao University, Fang Zhengyi and Ali Bai stood side by side.

Ali Bai looked at the wide school gate and the huge landscape stone at the gate, and was slightly shocked.

A mere school can be run with such grandeur, it must be the only one in the world.

"Second Prince, please come with me, and I will introduce you one by one." As he spoke, Fang Zhengyi had already walked towards the school.

Ali Bai followed closely.

The decoration in the school is exquisite, and it can be said that every step of the way is a scene.

Coupled with the free and loose academic style, many students stroll around the campus and talk to each other, creating a relaxed and contented scene.

Fang Zheng pointed at the distant landscape and said, "Does the second prince know how much money it will cost to build this school?"

Alibai lowered his head and thought: "I'm afraid it's no less than tens of thousands of taels."

Fang Zheng shook his head and held out two fingers: "Tens of thousands of taels? You can't even pretend to be half of it, no less than two hundred thousand taels!"

"Look at the trees over there. They are all rare tree species brought from the south. The craftsmen who built the house are also craftsmen from the Ministry of Works, and there are also teaching materials in this school..." Fang Zheng said in a familiar tone,

"If this land hadn't been approved by the royal family, and with the support provided by the imperial court, 200,000 taels would not have been enough."

"Not only that, 200,000 yuan is only an initial investment, and a series of subsequent expenses will continue to come."

Alibai was shocked. The annual income of the Kingdom of Jin was only more than fifteen million taels, but building a school in the capital would cost hundreds of thousands of taels of silver?

What kind of financial resources is this!

"What do the second princes think?" Fang Zheng asked.

Ali Bai forced a smile and said, "It's indeed amazing, but is it necessary to spend so much money to build a school? What is taught here?"

"Everything is covered. Roughly speaking, it is divided into two subjects: liberal arts and science. This liberal arts is... but at the moment it is still focused on practicality. To put it simply, it trains craftsmen. Of course, these are knowledgeable craftsmen. We also have

Call me a college student."

"Craftsmen?" A huge doubt arose in Alibai's heart: "Based on my understanding of your country, the status of craftsmen is probably not that high, right? Doesn't it go against tradition to cultivate craftsmen with such a high profile?"

Fang Zheng laughed loudly: "The second prince is indeed well-informed, yes! But the so-called tradition is just the spirit of inheritance. It doesn't matter how it is expressed. In the future, one of the college students trained by our Eastern Suburb University will be able to carry ten oxen and horses. I don't know.

How many people will benefit?"

"The great scenery will also benefit from these cows and horses. This is tradition!"

A college student can carry ten oxen and horses.

There are so many people in Dajing...how many oxen and horses are there?!

"How can one man compare to ten cows and horses?"

Although Ali Bai didn't understand much, he was greatly shocked.

"Of course it depends on learning." Fang Zheng replied vaguely and continued to move forward.

Alibai didn't know what to ask, so he followed silently and looked around.

After a pause while walking, Alibai pointed to the buildings in front and asked, "Mr. Fang, I see that many of the houses inside have signs. What are the uses of the ones that don't have signs?"

"Oh, considering that new majors will be added in the future, there are many empty houses left for backup."

Fang Zhengyi said, pointing to the building in front of him: "Look, this is the medical school recently funded and named by the Patriarch Association of Beijing. People in Beijing who are aspiring to study medicine will come here to study."

"There are also many flowers and plants outside, many of which are herbs cultivated by students themselves. Let's go in and take a look."

In the medical school, the teacher was leading a group of freshmen in a nonchalant lecture, and a group of students were holding needles and gesticulating on the pigskin.

Alibai asked curiously: "Why did you get a needle? Is this practicing acupuncture? What is the tube behind the needle for?"

"No, it's not acupuncture. The tube contains liquid medicine. Injecting the medicine directly into the patient's body will have a better effect than drinking it."

"So that's how it is. It's really clever." Ali Bai memorized it in his mind and nodded solemnly, "I wonder if I can take a closer look?"

"It's just a small matter." Fang Zhengyi said and pushed the door open.

As soon as Fang Zheng arrived, everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and said hello loudly.

Fang Zhengyi raised his hand gently and said, "Today, the Japanese principal brought distinguished guests to visit. What are you studying?"

"Learn to give injections."

"Here, let's show it to our distinguished guest." Fang Zheng pointed and picked a student.

The student walked out of the queue tremblingly and said in a low voice: "Principal Fang, I just came here and haven't practiced yet..."

"What are you afraid of? Just do it if you are told. Your guest just wants to see how the injection is done, so don't be nervous."

The student tremblingly picked up the needle and gave an injection on the pigskin.

Fang Zheng pulled Ali Bai and said, "Let's go, Second Prince, I'll show you something else."
