I was thinking that I would stop Zhu Zhanji at the gate of the academy early tomorrow morning and keep a close eye on him the whole time, not giving him a chance to cause trouble.
"Thank you very much, sir. Zhanji will be here early tomorrow morning." Zhu Zhanji smiled and winked at Han Du.
Early the next morning, Han Du rarely got up before dawn and waited at the entrance of the academy early.
But looking left and right, he didn't see Zhu Zhanji.
"Are you sure Zhu Zhanji didn't sneak into the academy?" Han Du turned his head and asked Fang Xiaoru. ??
Fang Xiaoru glanced at Han Du, "I stare at the academy and not even a fly can fly in. If he enters the academy, I won't know about it."
Han Du raised his head and glanced at the sky. The time had already passed. Why didn't Zhu Zhanji come? Did he forget?
Just as Han Du was getting more and more angry, a fast horse galloped to the entrance of the academy and stopped.
Zhu Zhanjiying got off his horse angrily, walked quickly to Han Du, raised his hands and apologized, "Zhanji is late, please forgive me."
Han Du's face was very ugly. How could Zhu Zhanji have the face to keep him waiting for so long?
But he couldn't reach out to hit the smiling man. Zhu Zhanji kept apologizing and making amends, which made it difficult for Han Du to have a fit on the spot.
"Forget it, there's no need to argue with him over these little things. It's more serious to send him away as soon as possible."
With a plan in mind, Han Du reluctantly showed a smile and said, "It doesn't matter. I'm old and sleep less, so it doesn't matter if I go earlier."
Fang Xiaoru's eyes widened when he heard this, and he looked at Han Du in disbelief.
Getting older?
Sleep less?
In all these years, except today, he has never heard of Han Du getting up early.
Fortunately, Zhu Zhanji didn't know this and apologized to Han Du apologetically.
"
Your Highness, please." Han Du turned sideways and stretched out his hand to signal to the side door.
Zhu Zhanji cupped his hands and responded, "Thank you very much, sir. I'd rather invite you first."
Han Du stopped delaying, nodded with a smile, and walked towards the academy.
Entering the academy, Zhu Zhanji saw a large piece of tall and famous wood.
This was his first time visiting the academy, but he had heard his father talk about it many times since he was a child.
Especially after arriving in America, every time I mentioned the academy, my father always had a look of sadness and nostalgia.
Following Han Du, Zhu Zhanji's mind seemed to be echoing the words his father had said countless times.
"When you enter the academy, the first thing you see is the Mathematical Academy opposite the gate. Han Du, who founded the academy, believes that mathematics is the foundation of everything and the most important subject. All people in the academy must learn mathematics."
"Turn right from Shuyuan and walk through a small path to the Wuyuan. Opposite the Wuyuan is the Huayuan."
"Behind the School of Physics and Chemistry is the workshop. There are mechanical workshops, chemical workshops, physics workshops, etc. After so many years, I don't know what else has been added. These workshops are all used for students to make
A place for various experiments, and manufacturing.”
Zhu Zhanji followed Han Du's footsteps and after crossing the back door of the courtyard, he saw a huge workshop.
It looks like the scale is much larger than what Dad said. Apparently a lot of new buildings have been built here in recent years.
"After passing through the workshop, there is a large school field at the back. Building a large school field inside the academy is also what Zhen Guogong insisted on doing. He said it was to train the students' bodies?" Zhu Zhanji thought silently in his heart.
However, Zhu Zhanji raised his eyes and looked at the students walking by him. They were indeed strong and strong.
Completely different from those powerless scholars.
Obviously, the role of this large campus is very obvious.
And these students are exactly the talents Zhu Zhanji longs for.
I don’t know how many times Xinming was attacked in America every year. Anyway, I couldn’t record it at all. After I got used to it, I didn’t bother to record it.
The poisonous arrows of the Native Americans are very cruel, and the blood will seal the throat until death. After being attacked by a sneak attack, if you can't react quickly, even if you fall down for an instant, your chance of survival will be much greater.
For those who are weak and slow to react, very few will survive such a sneak attack.
Zhu Di also brought all the subordinate officials of the Yan Palace and the civil servants who later took refuge to America, but almost all of them died in these years.
On the contrary, almost none of the generals under his command were injured in the sneak attack.
In a place like this, having a strong and responsive body is even more important than knowledge. Of course, if you also have knowledge and are agile, that would be perfect.
When Zhu Zhanji was leaving, Zhu Di specially took him and taught him earnestly, "Zhanji, it doesn't matter whether you can buy slaves when you go to Ming Dynasty this time, it doesn't matter whether you can open up trade with Ming Dynasty."
"The most important thing for you is to deceive as many academy students as possible at all costs! It's to attract them."
Zhu Zhanji also understood what the emperor meant by entrusting him with this matter. It was foreseeable that these people would be taken seriously in the new Ming Dynasty, and perhaps within a few years, these people would become important ministers of the imperial court.
As the person who brought them to Xinming, he was born with a close relationship with these people. As long as he wins over these people, the future throne can only be his.
Even if my father wanted to establish another heir, it would be impossible.
Place
Zhu Zhanji understood that he was not only recruiting talents for Xinming, but also building a foundation for his future.
With such a mentality, Zhu Zhanji looked at every student in the academy with an extremely enthusiastic smile on his face.
He didn't notice that the students who passed by looked at him with strange eyes. In fact, if he hadn't followed Mr. Han in, someone might have wanted to beat him.
It's really Zhu Zhanji's expression that is so disgusting, as if he is trying to stuff someone else into his eyes.
Han Du noticed Zhu Zhanji's expression and couldn't help but frowned. What was going on with him? He was showing such eager eyes to each man. Could he have that kind of hobby?
But I have only heard that he is the Cricket Emperor, but never heard that he has such a hobby?
Is America really a magical place? Can it change a person's hobbies?
"what is that?"
Just as Han Du lowered his head and thought deeply, Zhu Zhanji suddenly raised his hand and pointed in one direction.
When Han Du heard this, he raised his head and looked along his fingers. He saw something hanging in a pavilion in the distance, and a large group of people gathered around the pavilion.
"Oh, that's the award list established by the academy."
"Reward list? What is that?" Zhu Zhanji was very curious and had a slight thought at the same time.
Han Du had no choice but to explain it to Zhu Zhanji. In order not to attract Zhu Zhanji's attention, he explained it very simply.
"It's nothing, it's just that the academy uses some money as rewards to give to outstanding students."
Of course, Zhu Zhanji would not believe that it would be so simple. He looked towards the pavilion and said with a smile, "This reward should be very generous, right? Otherwise, it would not attract so many students to gather together."
Han Du laughed dryly and said nothing, wanting to avoid the topic.
