After the regular business was completed, everyone listened to Li Er say: "My dear friends, recently, there has been a lot of fuss about the Imperial College Student Supervisor's petition at the gate of the palace. After thinking about it, I feel deeply uneasy. As Bo Duhe of Yi County said,
A century-old plan, education is the foundation. Now what our Tang Dynasty lacks most is talents. The reconstruction of the Imperial College cannot be postponed any longer. Yesterday, Du He entered the palace and presented a plan for the reconstruction of the Imperial College. According to this plan, the reconstruction of the Imperial College will cost a small amount of money.
to 700,000 guan, which is a full 300,000 guan less than the previous estimate of the Ministry of Industry. I have carefully calculated and found that Du He did not cheat... Therefore, I have decided to start rebuilding the Imperial College from now on, with Du He in charge of the size.
Regarding the matter, you must assist Du He and complete the Imperial College as soon as possible."
Before everyone could react, they heard Zhao Yang shouting loudly: "If something happens, we will retreat. If nothing happens, we will retreat... retreat!"
Then, they saw Li Er leaving the Tai Chi Hall in a hurry without giving everyone a chance to present his performance.
Everyone looked at each other.
What exactly did Du He discuss with His Majesty when he entered the palace last night?
Why did His Majesty agree to it today when he was so angry about the reconstruction of the Imperial College yesterday?
The Imperial College official who was beaten several times yesterday felt as sad as if he had eaten shit.
…
When the news of the reconstruction of the Imperial College reached the Imperial College, all the members were stunned at first, and then cheered in unison.
Finally, everyone was calling Du He's name.
This matter was proposed by Du He, and it was also Du He who argued hard, especially at the gate of the palace yesterday. If Du He had not appeared in time, the heads of more than a hundred students would have been gone long ago.
In the evening of that day, Kong Yingda took the student representatives from the Imperial College and personally went out of the city to the headquarters of Dream Group to meet with Du He and express his gratitude.
Kong Yingda said sincerely: "Mr. Du, regardless of any previous unhappiness between us, if not for your great help in rebuilding the Imperial College, I'm afraid this matter will be shelved again. What happened in front of the palace yesterday, I am also concerned about."
I have heard that no matter what, on behalf of the Imperial College, I would like to thank Mr. Du for his help. In the future, if there is anything that needs help, I would like to ask Mr. Du to ask if there is anything we can do."
Saying that, Kong Yingda stood up and bowed deeply to Du He.
Du He quickly stood up and helped Kong Yingda up.
After this incident, Kong Yingda no longer resented Du He in his heart.
After sitting down again, Du He said: "Master Confucius, don't be polite. Although I, Du He, are just a businessman, I also care about the world. Education is no small matter. In the past, Confucius had three thousand disciples and seventy-two sages. The Mohist family
There are countless disciples, and there are many followers of Taoism, no matter who is right or wrong, but in that era, it was an era when hundreds of schools of thought in Chinese civilization contended and a hundred flowers bloomed. Education is noble and great... Education is related to the rise and fall of the country, and even affects the development of the country.
Life and death are at stake, so we should not underestimate it..."
Du He's remarks made Kong Yingda so moved that he fell to the ground.
Then I heard Du He say: "I am also very passionate about education, so I would like to ask Master Kong for help with something."
"Master Du, please speak frankly. I will do my best."
Just listen to Du He say: "To be honest with Master Kong, now my Dream Group has a small scale, with the number of employees reaching 3,000. The area next to the Bahe River was originally deserted, but now it is larger than a small town.
It is also prosperous and lively, with a large population and many craftsmen, but more than 80% of them are illiterate. Every time I see many people who can't even write their own names, can't read even half of Chinese characters, and can't accept the teachings of saints, I feel like this
It was very uncomfortable... Therefore, I recently convened a meeting of middle-level and above-level leaders of the entire group. We decided to open a private independent school within the Dream Group, mainly to teach these craftsmen to read and read, but... suffered from
There are no good teachers to teach. I have turned three hairs gray because of this..."
Du He sighed as he spoke.
When Kong Yingda heard this, he immediately said: "Master Du, why should you worry? When it comes to outstanding teachers, the ones with the most in the world are those in the Imperial College. This matter will be taken care of by me. As long as your private school starts classes, I can send someone over at any time to teach you."
You teach students, why should Mr. Du worry about such a trivial matter day and night?"
"Master Kong, is this really good?" Du He asked pretending to be surprised.
Kong Yingda waved his hand: "Master Du, you are worrying too much. The most important thing in the Imperial College is teachers. Many people have nothing to do all day long. It just so happens that coming to you to preach and teach is a great achievement!"
"In that case, thank you very much, Master Kong. With your words, I can rest assured that after my college is established, I will hire you as the honorary dean. I hope Master Kong will not refuse at that time." Du He stood up.
, said gratefully.
"I won't dare to say goodbye..."
After seeing off Kong Yingda, Du He was in a good mood and immediately called everyone to the conference room for a meeting to announce the matter.
When Li Lizhi heard this, she immediately curled her lips and said: "Du He, you are too bad. You know that Master Kong looks down on Dream Group at all. If you want to ask a teacher from the Imperial College to teach, he will definitely not agree, so you said this
What a bad move, I actually frightened Master Kong..."
Du He touched his chin: "What does it mean to be too bad? It doesn't matter whether it's a white cat or a black cat, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat. As a master of Confucianism in the Tang Dynasty, Master Kong is the leader of Confucianism, and he is also the emperor of the country. He
He doesn’t love money or profit, and what he likes most is reputation. I praised him, and he sent me a group of free teachers, everyone gets what they need.”
Afterwards, everyone returned to the topic.
Du He's plan is to establish a Datang Vocational and Technical College.
In the early stage, craftsmen were trained to read and write, and then various technical trainings were carried out.
For example, the simplest one, mechanical repair is a course.
This vocational and technical college requires at least an early investment of 200,000 yuan.
When everyone heard this, they thought Du He was stupid.
Zhang Du couldn't help but said: "Master, I'm afraid this kind of thing is thankless. This vocational and technical college is nothing more than a private school. If we charge money, no one will be willing to come. If we don't charge money, no one will come.
You have to pour money in."
"That's right," Xu Zhengdao also said, "those craftsmen only need to be able to work. Why let them read and write?"
"I also think that this matter should not be rushed."
The only one who supports Du He is Li Yuanshu: "This princess actually thinks Du He's idea is very good. Needless to say, the craftsmen, just the current financial department, the newly recruited accountant must learn the new accounting method of Dream Group
, even if it is a smart person, it will take at least half a month, and it will take at least a month to start working... If this vocational and technical college can train a large number of such people, they can start working immediately when they come to the Finance Department in the future.
It can save a lot of time.”
