After seeing off the hard-to-welcome mother-in-law, Li Qi stood in front of the door and let out a long breath, saying to himself: "Mother-in-law, it's not that I don't want to help you, it really doesn't matter whether I help or not, the result is the same."
Just as he was about to call Ma Qiao over, he suddenly saw Wu Furong coming over. He hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Uncle Wu, didn't Jinlou invite us to a gourmet feast?"
Wu Furong seemed to have just woken up, and was a little confused by Li Qi's question. After a moment, he shook his head and said: "No."
Li Qi frowned and sighed secretly. It seems that Old Fox Cai's guess was not wrong. Zhang Chun'er has made up his mind not to invite me. What a pity. I am also planning to prepare some Three Kingdoms dishes for the new book.
Do publicity.
Wu Furong asked curiously: "What's the matter?"
Sweat! People have abandoned us, and you are still so calm. It seems that this old man doesn’t want to participate in this delicious feast. Li Qi shook his head and said: "No. Okay, I have to go to the academy."
.
When he rushed to the college, Li Qi first went to the office and turned around. Seeing that Cai Jing hadn't come yet, he didn't wait any longer and went to Bai Qiannuo's office to see if the girl was here.
When I arrived at Bai Qiannuo's office, I saw that she was the only one in the entire office, and she was concentrating on writing something.
Boom, boom, boom.
Although the door was not closed, Li Qi still stood in front of the door and knocked several times.
Bai Qiannuo turned around and saw that it was Li Qi. He quickly stood up and said, "Brother Li, you are here."
Li Qi hummed, walked in, and asked, "Where are Hong Nu and Feng Niangzi?"
"Oh, they went to study in the morning." Bai Qiannuo said, pouting: "Brother, why do I have the fewest classes? I can't attend many classes all day long, and I'm less than thirty in a month.
Lesson."
Sweating! When others are teachers, the less lessons the better. You still hope to have more lessons, I really don’t understand. Li Qi smiled and said: "Aren't I worried about your health? You are almost busier than me now."
, I plan to cut off a few more classes for you."
Bai Qiannuo said depressedly: "Ah! Still less?"
"Well, don't use your brain on this matter. There is no need to discuss it."
Li Qi saw the dissatisfied expression on her face, walked up to her, patted her shoulder, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I will give you more classes when things at the foundation clear up."
"
Bai Qiannuo was overjoyed and said, "Really?"
Li Qi hummed and said, "By the way, have you sent the notice I asked you to send?"
"Well, we have informed them that they will study in the morning and then go to the conference room for a meeting."
"That's good." Li Qi nodded and said, "Qiniang, are you familiar with our paper mill and printing shop in the capital?"
Bai Qiannuo was stunned and said, "Brother, do you want to print the book yourself?"
Li Qi nodded and said: "It's not that I print books myself, it's just that the college has a greater demand for these things now. I think it's better to earn this money for others than to earn it myself, so I want to spend money to buy a few larger paper publishers.
Workshop, make paper by yourself. Print by yourself.”
Bai Qiannuo said in surprise: "How many more do you want to buy?"
"Of course, today's paper mills are like mills. They are too small and cannot be used by one family. Not only that, I also plan to start a business with the Four Treasures of the Study."
Li Qi said it was light, but Bai Qiannuo was sweating when he heard it. After being stunned for a moment, he said: "But brother, this is not a small sum of money."
"What does this little money mean?" Li Qi, who was very wealthy, said hehe: "Go and help the elder brother to find out. In fact, the workshop is secondary. The key is to have talents."
"Okay, I get it now."
Bang bang bang.
The bell rang suddenly after morning self-study get out of class.
"Let's go to the conference room."
The conference room of Taishi Academy was originally the meeting hall of the Zhao family. When Li Qi and Bai Qiannuo arrived at the conference room, it was already full of people, gathered around in twos and threes, discussing the purpose of the meeting.
Since the probation period has not yet passed, the big stone still hangs in everyone's mind.
"associate dean."
When everyone saw Li Qi coming in, they quickly silenced themselves and stood up to salute.
Li Qi hummed and said, "Is everyone here?"
Chen Dongdao: "Except for the Grand Master, all the other teachers have arrived."
"That's good, everyone, please sit down."
Li Qi was naturally sitting in the upper seat, while Bai Qiannuo and the three girls were sitting in the back corner. This also fully reflects how small the status of women is in this patriarchal society.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Qi first asked representatives from each office to make a simple report, and then had a simple exchange with them about teaching. Then he said: "Everyone, the main purpose of convening this meeting today is to
Let me tell you a piece of good news. To be precise, it will increase benefits for everyone, which is commonly known as making extra money."
Making extra money? Everyone was stunned, but the word "increased welfare" still hit their young minds hard. Now the welfare of Taishi Academy is good enough. If it still increases, it will be really incredible.
Already.
Li Qi glanced at everyone and said: "In order to increase the influence of our Taishi Academy in the capital, I plan to start a folk tale selection in the name of our Taishi Academy."
Ouyang Che asked curiously: "Vice Dean, what does this folk tale selection mean?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "To put it simply, I ask you to write a story, like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Of course, you don't need to write such a long one, just a short one, ten thousand words or tens of thousands words will do, but
The most important thing is that it looks good. Don’t give me any poems or the like. You should choose folk materials and describe some small things happening around you, making it ups and downs, twists and turns and bizarre."
Xu Xian, who was half-informed, asked: "Vice dean, can you explain it in more detail?"
Sweating! Isn't this detailed enough? Li Qiwei pondered, and said: "Let's take the matter between men and women. If both parties are well matched and a match made in heaven, it would be boring. It would only be written in eight words, and no one else would like to read it.
But if it's an affair, it's different. These two words alone are enough to attract everyone's attention. But this is not enough. You can also add some ingredients, such as a widow's affair and a married woman's affair, which are different.
Yes, it is obviously more exciting for a married woman to have an affair, and there is more content to write about. But you can also write more twists and turns. In the same way, a married woman has an affair, one is a swinger, and the other is a monk.
, this is different again, right? Do you understand what I mean?"
Bai Qiannuo and the three girls all blushed when they heard this and lowered their heads. The other male teachers were not much better. In this sacred school, they openly discussed cheating. This is really unethical. They looked at each other in shock.
, I don’t know what to say.
This vice president is really evil.
Chen Dong objected: "Vice Dean, if you ask us to write a story, we are willing to give it a try, but if you ask us to write such obscene things, then I, Chen Dongshu, will not be able to obey."
"I'm just saying this as a metaphor." Li Qi glared at him slightly, this guy was really a smelly and hard rock, and said: "But then again, this is not an obscene thing. This is called a hundred years of life.
I think you have also read my Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and I bet that your influence on Diao Chan and Xiao Qiao must be very profound."
Everyone was silent. It was considered acquiescence.
Li Qi added: "The reason for this is because their life experiences were rough. Diao Chan first followed Dong Zhuo, and then was taken away by Lu Bu. She followed me, and then her son. I didn't see anyone saying that it was anything obscene."
Let's go back to the topic of cheating. Don't be so evil and think about the pleasures of the boudoir. You can start with why the woman cheated. This is the focus. For example, her husband often gets drunk and beats her, or her husband
He often stayed out at night, looking for flowers and flowers outside, leaving her alone in the empty boudoir, which led to her having an affair. Her husband himself came back to steal her, and her lover was her favorite. These are all things we often encounter.
.We can definitely use this story to call on everyone to love their wives, respect women, and care about women. This is a matter of immeasurable virtue and cannot be called obscene."
Is it true that we are evil? Chen Dong was dumbfounded and looked at Li Qi dully.
Feng Yinu was stunned for a while, covered his lips and chuckled, and whispered: "This man is really good at talking. It makes him sound like he is doing good deeds. I am convinced by him."
Bai Qiannuo said proudly: "Of course, brother has his own reasons for everything he does. It's not just about making money."
Ji Hongnu nodded in agreement.
Ouyang Che stood up and saluted and said: "Vice-dean's words are all beautiful, Ouyang has learned a lesson."
Chen Dong was slightly startled, then bowed and said, "Chen Dong didn't know what to do and misunderstood the deputy dean. Please forgive me."
Hehe. In fact, what everyone likes the most is the excitement of having an affair. Li Qi secretly chuckled in his heart, but said: "You two are serious. In short, you must remember these eight words, twists and turns, ups and downs, pig.
There is nothing strange about pigs giving birth to pigs, but it is strange for pigs to give birth to dogs. But you must also remember that you must not write about matters involving the imperial court, even if you have even the slightest hint of it. I and Lady White Snake will check this for you.
After you write it, you have to give it to me and White Snake for review. If it is approved, we will put your story in a selected magazine and sell it to the people. Whoever's story is popular will get more money.
I will hold a meeting to explain the specific matters to you in detail, but you still focus on class, and writing stories can only be done in your spare time. Do you understand?"
When everyone heard that there was still money to be made, they quickly nodded in agreement.
Li Qi said again: "By the way, have you seen the quill pen I use?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"That's good. Starting today, you can try to learn to write with a quill."
Chen Dong was surprised and said: "Why is this?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Of course it's to save paper. Think about it, the paper you use to write one calligraphy character is the same as the paper I use to write four characters with a goose quill pen. Besides, what you are reading is a story, not a story.
Your calligraphy."
"Oh, we got it."
Li Qidao: "Okay, that's it for today's meeting. You can take advantage of this time to think about it. Let's adjourn the meeting. Oh, Lady Feng, Chen Dong, Ouyang Che, you three stay." (To be continued.
