Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 541

Wang Xiu couldn't help but smile, Wen Xijun and Wang Qingzhu really don't get along, they just can't get along.Taking Nanjing as the center, Wang Qingzhu devoted all her efforts to the development of Wangji Department Store, joined forces with Wanshixing, set foot in steel, shipping, and banking, and set up branches in important military states one after another, almost becoming a giant in industry and commerce.

In addition to walking around in the palace, those noble ladies often come and go. The eldest sister of the Wang family has become the eldest lady of the Wang family, and she is definitely a respected existence. Even officials from Kaifeng Mansion and some military states in the southeast have to give some points to the eldest lady of the Wang family. Thin noodles.

However, there are still those who do not believe in evil, and Wen Xijun is not idle. He opened a department store in the first year of his arrival and raised all the funds to build a large-scale restaurant by the Xuanwu Lake. It is known as Xiaofengle Lou, there are so many guests!

Now, it is planning to build a real Fengle Building next to the Xiaofengle Building, with six floors and five floors side by side.Wang Ji Department Store, a force dominated by Wang Qingzhu, has never been able to get involved in the commercial catering of Jiangning Mansion, and the department store has signs of division into two levels.

He is not opposed to polarization. As long as it is within a moderate and controllable range, internal competition in Wangji Department Store is still welcome.Putting all eggs in one basket will always make people feel uneasy, and it is more appropriate to form a loose group.

"Sister, you have to settle this matter yourself."

Wang Qingzhu rolled her eyes at Wang Xiu, snorted and said, "I know you are protecting that foxy girl and you don't live in the mansion, so you have to open some other courtyard."

Wang Xiu was embarrassed for a while, isn't he avoiding your old man!Every time I come back, I take advantage of your old time to go out. How can it become an excuse to beat people?
"Come on, Chief Hong Shan is here, and he is waiting in the living room. I won't delay your business, so hurry over!" Wang Qingzhu said with her mouth curled.

"Sister, I'll accompany you to visit Qinhuai today, don't ask brother." Youqin Mo Yan said with a smile.

"It's okay, I'm really exhausted for the sea ships these days, and none of those stinky guys can make me worry." Wang Qingzhu thought of the troubles, and chattered again.

Facing Wang Qingzhu's dominance, Wang Xiu hurriedly dodges, not knowing what to see.

Youqin Moyan held her fragrant shoulders and said with a smile, "Eldest sister, you should find a stinky guy too."

"Bah, it's boring to look at." Wang Qingzhu rolled her eyes and said.

Wang Xiu ignored the women's affairs. When he came to the living room, he saw Hong Zhen sitting and sipping tea. He immediately cupped his hands and said with a smile, "I just came back from the palace. I kept Uncle Ben waiting for a long time."

Hong Zhen stood up and returned the salute, and said with a smile: "The mountain chief has a lot of things to do every day, and it's hard for me, the deputy mountain chief, to see him."

Wang Xiu rarely blushed, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Please sit down."

"This trip is still about the expansion of the university, so we can't wait any longer." Hong Zhen said bluntly, without being polite at all, and immediately got to the point.

Wang Xiu smacked his lips and was noncommittal, and Shangshui Primary School moved to Xingzai. On this basis, he discussed with Hong Zhen and established a large school to teach a better level of knowledge.Primary school students pass the examination and enter directly. After three years of study in university, they can continue to study or take the imperial examination. The courses are still mainly mathematics, physics and chemistry, political economy, astronomy and geography. Of course, Confucianism and poetry are indispensable.

After several years of development, the large and small schools located in Zhongshan have become quite large, and the rudiment of establishing an academy has gradually taken shape.

Just last year, he discussed with Hong Zhen to merge large and small schools to form a real academy, regardless of merging academies, the amount of work is really not small.Whether it is the establishment of each hall, or the head of the hall, the head of the hall, lectures, assistant lectures, management, etc., all need to be carefully arranged, and there must be no sloppy.

"What I mean is to set up an academy in Zhongshan, divide calculation, reasoning, chemistry, governance, economics, astronomy, geography, classics and righteousness, and poetry and Fu two rooms, set up a lecture system, hire great Confucianism and famous ministers, and then purchase Fertile land as funding..." He has not yet made his final decision whether to establish a comprehensive academy or a professional academy.

Hong Zhen nodded his head, he really regarded teaching as his lifelong pursuit, and now he would not do it if he knew the state, so he was naturally very concerned, and said: "Everything must be considered in the long run."

"Well, anyway, Zhang Ling, Lin Silang and the others have worked out the red bricks and cement. We will be self-sufficient if we don't waste our fat and water to outsiders. We ask Wanshixing and Department Store for funding, but we have to wait and see. We must not rush into the horse." Wang Xiu. Talking and laughing.

He did not intervene too much in affairs, but guided them subtly. The granulation of gunpowder, nitroglycerin, and steam equipment were quite far away, but they used local materials in the steelmaking process. Zhang Ling and Lin Shiro successfully made cement and red bricks horizontal. Birth can be regarded as a major event with epochal significance, but it has not been paid attention to by scholars for the time being.

"It's easy for you, but the red brick is indeed more economical than the blue brick, and the perception is better, so it can be promoted." Hong Zhen said with satisfaction. He often came into contact with Wang Xiu's knowledge. supporter.

"I still want to save trouble. Maybe something will happen soon. Uncle Ben will take care of everything in the academy." Wang Xiu smiled sinisterly.

The corner of Hong Zhen's mouth twitched, he looked at Wang Xiu puzzled, and said, "Shan Da Yin's court, what else is there to be busy with?"

Wang Xiu frowned, and said lightly: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop, it's time to do something!"

Hong Zhen also came from the officialdom, and he seemed to vaguely understand what Wang Xiu meant, so he couldn't help saying: "Master, the wind and waves are strong!"

"Just riding the wind and breaking the waves." Wang Xiu burst out laughing.

in the study at night
Wang Xiu looked serious, sitting on a high-backed chair next to the desk, quietly listening to Zong Liang talk about the investigation of the Yi case.Among them, there are many unknown inside stories, which involve so many officials and are extremely daring and shocking.

"Sir, it can be said that the bank, the Maritime Department, and the navy officials have colluded to the point of insanity, disregarding the safety of the country." Zong Liang sternly pronounced the verdict, almost deciding the heads of some people.

"It's true that I didn't expect that the situation is so serious that it must be done by thunder." Wang Xiu said flatly, but her tone was full of murderous intent.

Zong Liang swallowed, not surprised by Wang Xiu's attitude. During his secret investigation, he discovered that not only the Bank, the Maritime Department and the navy, but also some high-ranking officials of the imperial court were involved. And Han, said that he couldn't turn the page any longer, if he was not careful, he would really shake the government and the public.

Wang Xiu glanced at Zongliang, his eyes were full of complexity, and said, "What did Liu Shizhi say?"

"Involving the Ministry of Industry and the Military Weapons Supervision, Liu Shizhi, please make a decision."

"Okay, it's not easy for you to find out this step!" Wang Xiu said lightly.

Zong Liang felt uneasy, how could he not understand Wang Xiu, the calmer he was, the more cautious he would be, he didn't know that anger was enough to set off huge waves, not to mention his pettiness.
