If the academy wants to grow, it cannot just rely on Han Du and a few people.
Take Han Du, for example. He is in charge of shipping, and he has to lead the navy on an expedition. After a year, he has very little time to come to the academy. And Han Du is still lazy, so the time to come to the academy becomes even more
not enough.
As a result, the two subjects of physics and chemistry are still taught only briefly.
As for mathematics, thanks to Han Jingyun's hard work and rain or shine, the academy students have made rapid progress in mathematics and are now able to take charge of their own business.
"You want to stay in the academy to teach?" Han Du asked in disbelief.
"Please Master Han, please do it." Everyone stood up with a swoosh, bowed and said.
Han Du was startled by such a uniform move. After reacting, he waved his hand quickly and said: "Sit down, everyone, sit down. I need to consider this matter in the long run."
Seeing that Han Du wanted to agree, they slowly returned to their chairs and began to smile.
Han Du stood on the podium, stroking his chin and pacing back and forth. Recruiting these people as teachers in the academy will make the academy truly strong. With so many people joining, the academy will never lack teachers to teach in the future.
The academy can also get on the right track and be passed on for a long time. Instead of like now, once he and Han Jingyun are gone, the academy will exist in name only.
After a few laps, Han Du suddenly stopped. He finally made up his mind and did it!
Why should I give up the students I worked so hard to teach to Lao Zhu?
Han Du glanced around. Each of these people was a treasure. How could he be willing to leave it to Lao Zhu to waste? Rather than letting them embark on official careers and be constrained by power in the future, it would be better to stay in the academy and teach them
A world of freedom.
Isn’t it just salary?
If it comes to other things, Han Du may not have a solution yet. But when it comes to money, even if he gives up his hundreds of pounds, he will always be able to get money for them to support their family.
Having made a decision in his heart, Han Du nodded and said, "If you want to stay in the academy, I will definitely welcome you."
"Ouch~" As soon as the words came out, bursts of ghostly cries and howls came like waves.
Han Du was so driven by the noise that he had to turn his head to avoid it, otherwise his ear holes would feel painful.
When the cheers slowly subsided, Han Du quickly stopped their voices and said, "However, there are two things I want to say first."
"Sir, please tell me, students
I'm all ears." Wang Yuanji agreed with a smile.
Han Du glanced at him without saying anything. He turned to everyone and said: "First, the academy has no money now. The salary you will get if you stay in the academy as a teacher will definitely not be as good as if you become an official. On this point, I hope you will
You have to think it through carefully.”
"Don't worry, Master Han. We don't ask for much salary. Even if it's the same as when we were students, we have no regrets." Wang Yuanji laughed and said, and others also agreed.
However, Han Du still waved his hand to stop their words, glanced at Wang Yuanji, pointed at him and scolded him: "Wang Yuanji, you are not allowed to think like this. I also know a little about the situation in your family. Apart from you, you
You also have a younger brother and younger sister, right?"
"What you said is correct." Wang Yuanji replied immediately.
Han Du continued with a reproachful tone: "Your parents have worked hard to support you in your studies. After you have achieved success in your studies, you should earn more money to support your family so that your parents no longer have to work hard and your younger brother can also
Continue studying so that your sister can buy beautiful clothes. Even after you start a family in the future, you must have enough money to support your family's expenses.
Money is not a bad thing, as long as you use it properly, no matter how much money you make, it is what you deserve.
You go to the academy to study. In addition to teaching you knowledge, the academy hopes that you can become a man, a big tree that can protect your family from wind and rain and can be relied on, instead of becoming a person who abandons his family for a little fame.
.
If one day, one of you becomes such a person, the academy will definitely expel him!"
Han Du said it categorically.
The students below were shocked when they heard that not all of them came from wealthy families. Many of them were like Wang Yuanji, and the whole family worked hard to support them. The family also hoped that they would one day be honored with a gold medal and honor their ancestors.
The most important thing is that I hope to take this opportunity to change the fate of their whole family.
Young people are impulsive and irritable, and are easily swayed by sudden comments. When their minds are hot, they dare to resign blatantly, without thinking about the consequences after they resign. Even if they can avoid the penalty of being exiled thousands of miles away, they will fall into a
The situation of never being able to use it again is as great as the sky falling and the earth falling for their whole family.
Han Du didn't want them to regret it for the rest of their lives because of their impulsiveness.
Sure enough, after Han Du finished speaking, some students began to slowly wake up and were able to weigh the pros and cons rationally.
At this time, Han Du raised a second finger and said: "Second, there are one hundred and ninety-four of you. You also know how many students there are in the academy. Do you think the academy can really need so many of you?"
Teaching?”
Including the Jinshi in front of me, there are less than a thousand students in the academy. Even if the academy continues to recruit students in the next few years, there will be at most two thousand students. Two thousand students, thirty or forty teachers will be enough, even if
If Han Du wanted to stay longer, he would need at most fifty or sixty people.
It is simply impossible to keep all 194 people.
The Jinshi here know clearly what is going on in the academy. They are all math masters, and after a little mental calculation, they know how many teachers the academy can retain at most.
When Han Du saw the expressions on everyone's faces changing, he knew that they already knew what they were thinking. He smiled lightly and said, "Let me make it clear. In the three disciplines of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, plus Shi Wen, there will be at most sixty people left."
This number was higher than the results everyone had come up with, and they also knew that Han Du had indeed tried his best.
Wang Yuanji thought for a while, raised his hands and asked, "May I ask Master Han, how do you select these sixty people?"
Seeing that everyone had begun to accept it, Han Du also felt relieved and said without hesitation: "Simple, the three subjects of mathematics, physics and chemistry plus time and literature, each subject has fifteen people, you know in your heart which subject you are good at and which subject is bad.
.You can choose for yourself. If anyone thinks it is unfair, then we will take a test for all four subjects and judge the difference based on the scores."
Han Du looked indifferent. After all, organizing an exam is nothing to the academy. When these people were preparing for the college entrance examination, they had to organize a mock exam almost every day in the last month. This was not a big deal for them.
It is said that it is simply a familiar road.
"No, that's not necessary. Just do what Master Han said. We can make our own choice." Wang Yuanji smiled awkwardly.
We are all classmates, and some are even friends in the same dormitory. Who doesn’t know who is who? They know very well who is good in which subject and who is bad in that subject. There is no need to take the test again, and there is no need to take the test again.
What changes will happen? It’s better to make your own choice.
Han Du nodded indifferently, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Then, except for these sixty people, everyone else should go to work and don't ask for resignation. Of course, I have something to say first. You must think about it when you choose.
In your own home, never let the impulse of the moment,
Let your family members suffer with you. The one who can carry the whole family on his shoulders is the real great husband."
"Of course, you don't have to choose now. I will give you three days. After three days, those who want to come to the academy to teach can come to me to register. In the end, I will select up to the top fifteen people based on the registration status."
As for those who didn't come, naturally they should be regarded as giving up and going to be officials in a decent manner.
After everyone bowed to Han Du one by one, they slowly left.
No matter what choice they make in three days, at least it will be a choice they make after careful consideration. They will not regret their impulsiveness in the future.
Everyone has left, and Han Du is ready to find a way to plead for mercy. Even if sixty people resign, this is a unique thing for the court. If it is not handled well and Lao Zhu is angered, then don't think about anything.
The academy has grown and developed, and maybe I will be exiled thousands of miles away with them.
It would definitely not work to go directly to Lao Zhu to plead with him. When Zhu Zi said that he was resigning as an academician, Lao Zhu's face was extremely ugly. You don't need to think about it to know that Lao Zhu was definitely opposed to this matter. If it hadn't been for Lao Zhu's resignation
Zhu hadn't figured out how to deal with it yet, so he might have ordered the academicians to be exiled thousands of miles away on the spot.
Fortunately, Han Du also had a candidate, and that was Zhu Biao.
"Do you want Gu to plead for the academy scholar?" Zhu Biao asked with a sigh as his heart sank heavily after hearing Han Du's intention.
Han Du nodded slightly and said: "I know this matter is extremely troublesome, so I want to ask the prince to be lenient."
"What's the use of being alone? What will happen in the end depends on Father's nod and consent." Zhu Biao sighed, glanced at Han Du, and suddenly asked: "Those precious students of yours resigned in the first place.
I’m afraid I didn’t get angry with you about the idea, right?”
Han Du smiled bitterly and nodded when he heard this.
Those guys are just like newborn calves who are not afraid of death. They just come up with an idea and write a letter to Zhu Zi to bring it to the court. They have no idea how harmful such behavior is to the court and the emperor.
bad.
Zhu Zi was also a fool, and he did it without knowing the seriousness of it. Perhaps in his opinion, he had done even more extreme things than this on weekdays, and he didn't see any problems.
But Zhu Zi didn't want to think about it. He was Lao Zhu's biological son. A tiger's poison would not eat its seeds, so Lao Zhu would naturally be tolerant to him. But his classmates were just subjects. When Lao Zhu got angry, there would be no trace of it at all.
