From the day when the Miscellaneous Academy opened, in this relatively secluded place away from Langyuan City, you can often hear the sound of reading, and sometimes you can see some young people dressed as scribes holding various kinds of books.
Strange wooden or bamboo utensils are seen by the river, or some strange things are being done in the fields. Farmers passing by occasionally look at them out of curiosity, but they can't understand them.
But the news that there is an academy here slowly spreads.
As Zhang Yan initially judged, there was a big problem with the academy's recruitment of students. When Xiao Shu came to see Zhang Yan before, he expressed his attraction to Zhang Yan and his recognition of Zhang Yan's identity and status. At the same time, the two of them
Although it was not stated explicitly, some exchanges of interests were made tacitly, including "students".
But the problem is that this is for Zhang Yan's sake and has nothing to do with the miscellaneous studies in nature. Therefore, Zhang Yan has talked with Luo Changshan before, and it may not be easy to recruit students. Now it is indeed the case. Now in the miscellaneous studies academy
All the new students are outstanding students from their own families, and there are no serious students recruited.
Luo Changshan thought of many ways, such as finding some acquaintances to serve as intermediaries for introductions, or identifying himself in places where miscellaneous knowledge was effective, thinking that he could recruit students immediately, and he believed in the charm of miscellaneous knowledge.
.But the result was nothing. This was a heavy blow to Luo Changshan and other people who promoted this matter. Their idea that "the world has long been hungry for knowledge in the field of miscellaneous studies" seems to have little effect now.
It's a little ridiculous.
Of course, this seems normal to Zhang Yan. The line of miscellaneous studies has always been hidden in the mountains and plains, and few people know about it. How can it have any reputation? Even if it does, it is only for people like Shi Xuan who know miscellaneous studies.
It is well known among the upper-class people who are interested in learning benefits. How do the majority of ordinary people know about your ability in miscellaneous studies? Let alone giving up the traditional mainstream school of thought that can lead to an official career and joining in miscellaneous studies.
However, Luo Changshan and others had expected it in advance. Although they were deeply hit, they would not let them give up their ideas. Even the Miscellaneous Academy has been able to open quietly until now without being burned down. In fact, it has already
This was their biggest victory. This showed that they had won the bet. Because of Zhang Yan's identity, people from the mainstream school could not touch them on the territory of Beijiang County, and they could not even interfere directly. All they could do was covertly.
As long as they can stabilize, the students' problems will have time to slowly find solutions. Luo Changshan and others do not believe that the Guangbo Expo on miscellaneous studies will not attract students who truly yearn to learn the truth.
Zhang Yan saw all this. He knew very well that Luo Changshan and others had made a mistake that is easy for academics to do behind closed doors. That is, they only focused on knowledge and regarded all outside scholars as themselves.
Such pure people who regard exploring the truth as their goal ignore that in terms of knowledge, exploring the truth is actually something only a few people do. Most people, even if they are very talented and accomplished, but their purpose is to "use it"
"Learning makes you live a better life" is the goal.
This creates a problem that seems difficult to solve: How can the general education system, which has no external resources to rely on, allow talented students to live a better life for themselves and their families through learning.
The mainstream school can pursue an official career, become an official, and have real material support. What about the miscellaneous school line? What is there?
If this problem cannot be solved, in Zhang Yan's view, Luo Changshan's ideas will continue to be thorny and difficult to move forward.
However, Zhang Yan has no way to remind him about this matter. Saying some things will cause cracks. There is no need. After breaking their heads, the truth will naturally break into Luo Changshan's brains. Even if they are said now, they will still be the same as before.
His suggestions for recruiting students will not be taken seriously.
The problem is from the Miscellaneous Academy and has little to do with Zhang Yan. What he has to face now is another problem: choosing people.
Early in the morning, the entrance to the Miscellaneous Academy was different from the past. There was no longer only the faint sound of reading or the rustle of bamboo leaves in the wind. Instead, there were the sounds of children chirping happily.
"Jiaoxi Zhang, these are the children of the current age of the royal family. They are all smart and smart. There are three princes, three princesses, and four princes." Xiao Shu stood at the front and smiled at Zhang, who was also smiling.
Yan gave a brief introduction. He did not go into details. After Zhang Yan has selected the person, he will only need to introduce it further if there is a suitable one. There is no need now.
In fact, further away in the academy, there are still many people standing on the edge of a small forest overlooking the gate. They are all adults bringing their children. And they are not all poorly dressed. And there are long trees on the edge of the forest.
A row of carriages was waiting.
News in Nanyuan Kingdom, except for military matters, even the secrets of the royal family cannot be hidden. Whether it is the Miscellaneous Academy, the tacit understanding between the royal family and Zhang Yan, or the royal family's hurried selection among the clan
For children between the ages of five and eight who are in elementary school and before elementary school, all this information will be known to the wise people more or less quickly.
You must know that Zhang Yan is now a fragrant steamed bun. The bone-strengthening pill, the "Medicine for Refining Skin and Flesh", and magic weapons are the most sought-after skills that have undoubted facts. The royal family is flocking to them. In order to
Zhang Yan would rather work with the mainstream school. What about people under the royal family? Will they follow closely?
Of course, attitude and order are still important. Although we are following closely, the first one to go up should be given to your royal family. Can't we just follow up after your royal family's affairs are over? That's it.
It can also be seen that the tacit understanding between Zhang Yan and the royal family has been found out.
Xiao Shu knew what happened next, and even the city guard Zhou Cang knew it very well. After all, it was a very important event for so many high-ranking people to enter the city.
But Zhang Yan didn't know clearly. What he was seeing now was the ten little children standing in front of him.
Whether she is a princess, a prince, or a heir apparent, there is no difference in Zhang Yan's eyes, nor is there any difference between Wang Nian, who is hiding behind the door frame and looking around with a smile on his face, excited. They are all babies.
It’s not that Zhang Yan has a big picture, but as a strong man in the Taoist realm and the only fire in the wilderness, his vision is fundamentally different. He may choose to be content for the time being in order to survive, but
It will not affect his confidence to stand on the Taoist gate and overlook the world.
Let's go and see.
"Xiao Yuanjian, I won't waste any more nonsense. Let's try it first to see if there are any suitable seedlings. We'll talk about the rest later, okay?" Zhang Yan didn't waste any more nonsense.
"As it should be!" Xiao Shu raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
