Daming: I have a showdown, my father-in-law is the emperor

Chapter 135 Daming Royal Primary School
When Chen Fan saw Li Yizhi's dismissive expression when he mentioned subordinate officials, he basically knew the attitude of the entire officialdom of Daming.

But this is also good, taking advantage of the fact that these civil servants don't care, Chen Fan can put people in every yamen of Daming.

At that time, if we promote the social reform of Ming Dynasty, the resistance will be much smaller.

Thinking of this, Chen Fan smiled knowingly.

Then, Chen Fan took out a few renderings of the school and handed them to Chongzhen.

"This is the campus I am planning to find someone to build for the children who are about to enter school."

Chongzhen looked at the rendering in his hand, his eyes nearly fell out of shock, and he looked at Chen Fan in disbelief and asked:
"My dear brother, is this a school for children? This is much more magnificent than my palace."

It is not that Chongzhen has never seen the schools in the capital.

But it was just a small house, covering an area of ​​only a few acres.

And because of disrepair for a long time, the students read and write in such a dilapidated environment.

But now Chongzhen can see the renderings of the campus.

Is this still a school?

Just covers an area of ​​hundreds of acres.

If that were the case, Chongzhen wouldn't be shocked.

But the point is, the environment on this campus is too good to be true!
The entire campus is full of greenery and the environment is beautiful, and the building is also unique in style, which he has never seen before.

Anyone who sees this magnificent building will be shocked.

"This is the campus of Daming Royal Primary School. I designed it according to the primary school standards of Huaguo."

Chen Fan explained from the side.

Not to mention Chongzhen, even Chen Fan was shocked when he saw the renderings of this elementary school.

The campus environment is really beautiful, and the architectural style is ultra-modern.

That's right.

The primary school that Chen Fan built for Daming was designed according to the standard of Hua Guo Noble Primary School.

It can be said that the hardware facilities of Daming Royal Primary School can be ranked among the top three when compared with more than 30 primary schools in Huaguo.

It's that inhumane.

Chen Fan upholds a principle, either don't build it, or build the best one.

"Your Majesty, look, this is the Etiquette Square, this is the Knowledge Garden, and this one, the Vitality Garden, the Friendship Garden, the Discovery Garden, the Art Garden, the Sports Garden..."

"These red modern buildings are the teaching buildings. There are also these, the administrative building, the art building, and the gymnasium."

"The library in the building is complete and the facilities are complete. There are computer classrooms, chess classrooms, science activity rooms, comprehensive practice rooms, music rooms, dance rooms, art rooms, calligraphy rooms, and libraries..."

Following Chen Fan's introduction.

Chongzhen and Li Yizhi on the side were stunned, their jaws almost dropped from shock.

Although they have never heard of these gardens or buildings.

But just looking at the renderings, their hearts have been deeply shocked.

If this Daming Royal Primary School is compared to a phoenix nest, then those imperial examination schools in the capital are completely chicken coops.

There is no comparison at all.

Chongzhen couldn't believe it when he saw such a magnificent campus.

"Brother, is this school too extravagant?"

Chen Fan said innocently:

"Extravagant? No, our elementary schools are all like this. Your Majesty, why are those skyscrapers and bright night scenes you saw before so developed? It is because Huaguo develops science education at any cost and invests a lot every year. financial resources.”

Chongzhen was a little speechless, finally sighed, and asked uncertainly:

"My dear brother, this elementary school looks very luxurious at first glance. It must be expensive, right?"

Although I don't know how much money is needed to build such a primary school, Chongzhen knows very well that it must be a lot.

Chen Fan tried his best to relax his tone so as not to scare Chongzhen.

"Oh, the fee! It's not much, it's only about 2000 million taels of silver!"

Chen Fan silently calculated an account in his heart, 200 billion should be more than enough to build a modern aristocratic primary school.

Although Chen Fan didn't think much.

But when Chongzhen and Li Yizhi heard that a school in the district actually wanted 2000 million taels of silver.

The two took a deep breath.

Chongzhen and Li Yizhi looked at each other, and saw a deep shock in each other's eyes!

Chongzhen looked at Chen Fan in disbelief, his lips trembled and said:
"My dear brother, to build a school, does it cost 2000 million taels of silver?"

Seeing Chen Fan nodding his head in admission, Chongzhen froze.

He was going to be shocked by such a high construction cost.

To know.

The Ming treasury still has 3000 million taels of silver, that is to say, the silver may not be enough to build two primary schools.

To put it more vividly, the current taxes collected by the Ming court from all over the country are about 500 million taels.

and so.

Chongzhen sadly discovered that the fiscal revenue of the Ming Dynasty for two or three years could only be used to build one primary school.

This made him a little ashamed and a little bit lost.

"Master National Teacher, is it inappropriate to spend so much money to build a primary school?"

Li Yizhi asked tentatively from the side.

He never thought that it would cost so much money to build a school.

Every county in Daming has a school, which is specially prepared for children to study and study.

But for those schools, it is only a few thousand taels to build one.

How is it like Daming Royal Primary School, which actually costs 2000 million taels of silver.

It's appalling.

Li Yizhi even wondered if Master Guoshi was doing something inside.

Thinking of this, Li Yizhi looked at Chen Fan with an inexplicable expression on his face.

Chen Fan noticed Li Yizhi's gaze, glared at him fiercely, and cursed:

"What kind of eyes do you have? If your eyes are sick, go to the doctor. Why are you looking at me? Crazy!"

From Li Yizhi's suspicious eyes, Chen Fan felt extremely humiliated.

It's as if he's taking bribes from within.

This suspicion is an insult to his character.

A modern aristocratic primary school already needs so much money.

Besides, he doesn't know how much money he can earn every year just by collecting 10% tax.

As for the 200 billion, he didn't like it at all.

"My lord, being an official doesn't mean that."

Li Yizhi smiled awkwardly.

"The lower official just thinks that building a primary school costs too much money."

Not only is there a lot, it is simply too scary.

Li Yizhi was afraid of irritating Chen Fan, so he was very particular about his words.

Chen Fan snorted coldly and said displeasedly:
"There are too many, not many at all. Think about how many imperial examination schools you have built across the country, there are thousands of them, right? Did I say anything?"

"Oh, I'm just building an elementary school now, just one, and you have so many opinions, Mr. Li, did you pole vault in the toilet—did you pass the dung?"

Chen Fan looked at Li Yizhi with dissatisfaction. This old man is really too much. Why don't he just build an elementary school? Why do he talk so much!
The corner of Li Yizhi's mouth twitched.

Cursing inwardly, aren't you ashamed to say this?

The construction cost of your elementary school is more than the construction cost of all imperial examination schools in Ming Dynasty.

Forget it, he didn't want to say more.

Let your Majesty worry about money!
