Transmigrated into the book to become the villain prince, the son of the plane to destroy

Now that Xiao Jie and the Tao family have reached an agreement on the most important issue, the focus of the next discussion is naturally how the Tao family donates to support their education.

Regarding this, Xiao Jie already had an idea, and said with a smile: "Since it is a donation to support education, the first step is naturally to build a free school. The Tao family can spend money to build a large academy in Luoyang City, recruiting talented students from the capital. Students enroll in school, not only do not charge students a fee, but also provide students with free three meals a day. In addition, each student can also receive a regular amount of money every month, which is used as the daily expenses of the students expense."

Before Tao Lu expressed his opinion, Xiao Jie's father-in-law Tao Song couldn't hold back, but he didn't dare to push it too hard, but carefully raised his doubts: "Your Highness, is it too much to treat students so preferentially? Our Tao family is duty-bound to not charge students any fees, but it is more appropriate if the three meals a day and the monthly expenses can be borne by the students themselves..."

Before Tao Song finished speaking, Tao Lu gave his ineffective son a hard look, and said in a tone of hatred, "Song Er, how can you be so rude to His Highness?"

After all, Tao Song was Xiao Jie's father-in-law, and when he was reprimanded by his father in front of his son-in-law, his face was obviously a little uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to attack, so he had to lower his head and dare not speak any more.

But in fact, everyone knows that Tao Song's question also represents the doubts in the hearts of many Tao family members present. After all, the Tao family is generous enough to contribute money and efforts to build a free school without charging students a fee, so why continue to spend money to support these students in the future? Well, not only do they have to take care of their three meals a day, but they also have to pay them an extra monthly fee every month, which is obviously a loss-making business.

Although these expenditures are just a drop in the bucket for the Tao family, the Tao family is essentially a businessman, and they must seek a profit when they invest their capital. They can't figure out what benefits the Tao family has for spending so much money to support these students every year , just to win a good name of generosity?

Anyway, Tao Song is his father-in-law, and Xiao Jie didn't want to embarrass Tao Song too much, lest Tao Han be caught in the middle, so he smiled and rescued Tao Song: "Master Taishan doesn't know, most ordinary people rely on a few acres of Susukida It is still a problem to make a living and support the whole family. How can I afford to support the scholars? I am afraid that my children can go out to work when they are older, and earn money to support the family earlier. Therefore, if these students are not provided with some money every month , to subsidize their families, how can their parents send their children to colleges?"

Everyone suddenly realized when they heard the words, but Tao Song's face was even more embarrassing. He, a businessman who traveled all over the world, didn't understand the sufferings of the people better than his son-in-law, who didn't touch the sun. He was really ashamed.

Tao Lu looked around at the Tao family, and his tone was unquestionable: "Your Highness is right. Since the Tao family has decided to donate to help students, it is natural to implement it to the end. How can we care about gains and losses?"

Xiao Jie saw it, nodded slightly, and then continued: "Grandfather Yue, as for my second plan, the Tao family may need to spend more money."

Tao Lu seemed to be mentally prepared, nodded and said: "Your Highness may as well say bluntly, as long as our Tao family can do it, it must be obligatory."

Xiao Jie smiled faintly, and said in a deep voice: "I hope that the Tao family can donate a sum of money to my father, and my father will set up a scholarship to reward students who are outstanding in their studies."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the Tao family couldn't help being a little dumbfounded, but due to Xiao Jie's power and the prestige of the Patriarch, no one dared to question it, but everyone's expressions were a little uncertain.

Although Xiao Jie did not specify how much silver taels to donate to the emperor, but since King Qi Xiao Jie offered to donate to the emperor, it would definitely not be a small amount.

They really couldn't figure out why the Tao family had already done enough for these students, so why would they still spend another sum of money to reward the best of them.

Even if it is really for the good name, it should be rewarded to outstanding students in the name of the Tao family, instead of donating to the court, but fulfilling the holy name of the emperor and his old man.

In fact, the establishment of scholarships to reward outstanding students is also the result of Xiao Jie's deliberation, because the theory that reading is useless is very prevalent in this era. I won't spend much blood, sweat and effort on reading anymore.

And once there is a scholarship, these students will also realize the truth of having a house of gold in a book. For the scholarship that can change the fate of their families, they will definitely keep their hands on the book and work tirelessly. His hopes are naturally much higher.

As for why these scholarships should be donated to the emperor first, instead of directly rewarding outstanding students in the name of the Tao family, Xiao Jie believes that Tao Lu, as the head of the family, will understand the truth. Can't live.

Tao Lu knew very well in his heart the truth that Muxiu would be destroyed by Lin Feng. If he really dared to give scholarships to outstanding students in the name of the Tao family, he would probably be giving those aristocratic families an excuse to deal with the Tao family.

Although Xiao Jie did not say how much he donated, Tao Lu knew that Xiao Jie wanted them to donate not only money, but also an attitude.

Thinking of this, Tao Lu didn't hesitate anymore, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, in order to show support for His Majesty's emphasis on education, our Tao family is willing to donate 1000 million taels of silver to His Majesty."

Everyone in the Tao family was dumbfounded again, what the hell, when the Patriarch opened and closed his mouth, one-fifth of the gold and silver in the underground secret room under their feet disappeared?

……

Major matters were decided, and seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Jie took advantage of the opportunity to get up and leave.

Tao Lu wanted to send Xiao Jie off in person, but Tao Song took the initiative to stand up for the first time and stated that he wanted to send his son-in-law. Although Tao Lu didn't know what medicine his son sold in the gourd, but after all, they were also Weng-in-law, It didn't stop me.

Xiao Jie and Tao Song walked towards the gate all the way, but Xiao Jie could see that Tao Song's expression was a little unnatural, absent-minded, he was hesitant to speak along the way, as if there was something he wanted to say to himself but couldn't. It's good to open this mouth.

Not long after, Xiao Jie and Tao Song had already reached the gate of Tao Mansion, and Tao Han in the car was already beckoning Xiao Jie to get on the car, but seeing that Tao Song still couldn't open his mouth, Xiao Jie had no choice but to ask: "Master Taishan, do you have anything you want to tell me? You might as well speak up when there is no one else here."

Seeing Xiao Jie's initiative to ask, Tao Song finally mustered up his courage, and said softly: "Your Highness, can you arrange an official job for her brother for Han'er's sake? I really don't want him to do it again." A businessman."

After finishing speaking, Tao Song looked at Xiao Jie a little nervously, as if he was worried that the other party would suddenly reject him, and even turn against him on the spot.

Although he is Xiao Jie's father-in-law, he always lacks confidence every time he faces Xiao Jie. Xiao Jie's engagement to marry Tao Han to Xiao Huang was fortunately stopped by his father in the end, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Although he knew that it was impossible for his father and daughter to tell Xiao Jie about his scandal, he still instinctively dared not face Xiao Jie. Tao Hui, the only legitimate son, asked for an official position, and secondly, he wanted to sound out Xiao Jie's tone, to see if he knew about the bad thing he had done before.

Xiao Jie smiled slightly: "It turns out that Master Taishan was talking about this matter. Since we are all a family now, you can ask your uncle to meet me at Prince Qi's mansion some time, and I will arrange an errand for him."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Tao Song secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the son-in-law agreed so readily, it seems that he really didn't know what he almost backtracked back then.

Thinking that his son would soon get a job in the government, Tao Song felt even happier, and thanked Xiao Jie again and again.

But at this time, Xiao Jie smiled slightly, changed the subject, and said softly: "Master Taishan, what I want to say is that some things have passed, let it pass, as long as no big mistakes are made, there is nothing wrong between Weng and son-in-law." We can't forgive each other."

After saying that, before Tao Song could react, Xiao Jie bid farewell to him, and then walked away.

Until the carriage went away, Tao Song was still in a daze, with a wry smile unconsciously showing on the corner of his mouth.

It turned out that his son-in-law knew everything. Fortunately, for his daughter's sake, he didn't hold grudges against him, and was willing to give his son a future.
