Chapter 240 Another thousand catties of iron
"roll."

with no doubt.

The Empress told Shanfang's subordinates to leave with a blank expression.

Money, of course she needs it.

But this kind of thing depends on the situation.

This imperial examination is very important to her.

She doesn't want problems in the imperial examination.

Moreover, she is not so short of money now, so she naturally has to consider repairing her reputation.

"Gao Yuanyi, is there anything you can do?"

"I... can't do anything." Gao Yuan smiled wryly, and shook his head helplessly: "It's really impossible, I can only find Tang Can. He said just now that he has a way."

……

Imperial City Roots.

Tang Can didn't have the self-consciousness of a foreign envoy at all, and leaned lazily against the wall, looking like a rascal.

Seeing Gao Yuanyi, he just smiled and didn't speak first.

Gao Yuan couldn't laugh or cry.

He waved his hand, stepped back, pulled up a chair, and sat down opposite Tang Can: "You didn't listen at all to what I told you."

Tang Can was a little dumb: "Why did King Liang say that? I listened to what you said, really!"

The expression is sincere and the tone is sincere, without appearing to be fake.

"Tell me, how to deal with the Xiuyefang matter." Gao Yuanyi really didn't want to continue this kind of unnutritious topic with him, so he shook his head helplessly, and directly talked about the business.

"How much?" Tang Can looked at Gao Yuanyi with a philistine look on his face: "I only want ironware, nothing else."

"A thousand catties."

"It's less, five thousand catties."

Gao Yuan's face froze.

Not only because Tang Can's lion opened its mouth wide.

It was also because before he went out, the empress told him that Tang Can would definitely need five thousand catties.

"One thousand catties." Gao Yuanyi asked the price again according to what the Empress said.

This time, without waiting for Tang Can to counter-offer, he immediately added: "Except for the one thousand catties of iron, the ten big boards per day that I said before, I won't fight."

"You don't need to be a guard when you enter the Gongyuan."

Tang Can frowned slightly, looked at Gao Yuanyi, and asked, "If you're not a bodyguard, what are you doing?"

"Head of the guards."

Gao Yuan smiled slightly, and then said: "The children you brought don't need to enter the Imperial Academy, but live in another courtyard, and they will be sent out by the Imperial Academy to teach in the other courtyard."

"It's the same as the Imperial College, with monthly exams."

"One year later, pass the Imperial College Entrance Examination and enter the Imperial College to study."

Tang Can thought for a moment, and then asked, "When will you start teaching?"

"today."

"Who will choose the professors for the Imperial College?"

"Me." Seeing that Tang Can was already moved, Gao Yuanyi didn't say any more nonsense and struck while the iron was hot.

In a few words, this matter is finalized.

"Then I'll go back to the mission and wait for the others. When the professor enters the other courtyard, I'll tell you what to do."

"it is good!"

After the two sentences were finished, the two left separately.

Gao Yuanyi naturally entered the palace to discuss with the empress, while Tang Can returned to the other courtyard to arrange things.

Without keeping him waiting, Gao Yuanyi led a group of middle-aged Confucian scholars into the other courtyard of the Gaochang Mission.

The reason for choosing middle-aged Confucian scholars is that middle-aged people are easy to control.

They are not as bloody as young people, and they will fight against Tang Can.

Furthermore, most of these middle-aged people are about to become grandpas, and they are relatively kind to children.

but……

However, Tang Can saw something strange from the selection of candidates brought by Gao Yuanyi.

because……

There are a few people with extraordinary bearing.I think that when he was still in Great Liang, he knew those professors who concentrated on teaching in the Imperial College.

His knowledge is much better than those officials who only know how to work in the officialdom.

Gao Yuanyi was a little too generous this time.

"What else does Prince Liang have to do?"

Gao Yuanyi was a little embarrassed, laughed dryly, and explained: "According to what you said, I will arrange the people in Shanfang to do things."

"But... a few people went there, but none of them passed the test of the so-called "Sage of Books".

"What do you care about the test of the book sage?" Tang Can couldn't help being startled, and said helplessly, "Didn't I say that, as long as the book sage is lifted up to reveal the things underneath, everything will naturally be explained!"

"But who is behind this matter, we always have to find out."

"Hmm..." Tang Can calmly agreed and lowered his head in thought.

original.

According to his plan, as long as that bullshit scholar stone statue is dug up, the students will know what's going on, and the matter will be over.

The students have to face, it is impossible to spread such a thing of being deceived.

Then at night, the mountain house was dispatched to arrest those who should be arrested and interrogate those who should be interrogated to completely wipe out this matter.

but now.

Gao Yuanyi wanted to take down the people behind him quietly and then make preparations, which was a bit troublesome.

"Money ready?"

"Naturally." Gao Yuan smiled and took out two bank notes from the top.

One is 1 taels, and the other is 5000 taels. They are all bank notes from the Universal Bank.

"This one is for Xiucai Ke. This one is for your hard work."

"It's rare and generous." Tang Can laughed at himself and didn't say anything else.

But Gao Yuanyi understood what he meant.

it's actually really easy.

Back then, Tang Can's sweet potatoes, potatoes, and white salt brought Daliang a lot of income.

A mere 5000 taels is really nothing.

"Where is the person from Shanfang?"

"Xiwenfang."

"How many people did you arrange?"

"thirty."

"not enough."

Tang Can frowned and thought for a while: "Jingshanfang is opposite Xiuyefang."

"You put people over there."

"I took a closer look when I went there before. Their back door is only one step away from Jingshanfang."

"If there is anything wrong, arrest people directly in Jingshanfang."

"Also, how do you contact Shanfang now?"

Gao Yuan was prepared early in the morning and took out a small whistle from his arms, handed it to Tang Can and received: "Birds singing."

"it is good."

Tang Can reached out to take it and tried it.

Hearing the crow-like sound of the small whistle in his hand, he couldn't help but get a few black lines on his forehead, and couldn't help complaining: "It sounds so good."

Gao Yuanyi smiled slightly: "It is highly recognizable and not easy to forge."

"..."

After being speechless, Tang Can looked at the sky and said casually: "It's still early, I'll go slowly."

"If nothing else happens, at the moment of Shenshi, I will take the people with me to Jingshanfang."

"no problem."

……

Xiuyefang.

Business as usual.

Whether it was the fortune teller or the scrutinizing eyes of those in the inner courtyard, nothing changed.

Even the students who come and go are still queuing up.

However, maybe because it was cloudy today, there were fewer people coming than before.

Such a result made the woman in the inner court pretending to be Shangguan Wan'er very dissatisfied.

"Spring will be here in a few days."

"The rest of our time is fully calculated, and it will only be about five days."

"If I don't get the money, I won't have time to run away when the time comes!"

The boy on the side also had an ugly face, and said dissatisfiedly: "You don't need to say. The most important thing is that you want them to be fooled!"
