"Just as we said before, six thousand taels of gold."

"Sir, your six thousand taels of gold are enough to build a golden house. Stop joking."

Wright smiled in surprise and said, "Sister, how did you know I was going to build a golden house?"

"Sir, please stop teasing me. No one can really build a golden house."

"Sister, have you ever heard that books contain beautiful women and golden houses?"

The madam's eyes widened.

"Did I hear you right? You want to build a school next to a brothel. That won't do. If this gets out, we'll all become a laughing stock."

Wright showed no sign of panic.

"Sister, don't you have enough rumors about Yunyuan?"

The madam paused and laughed at herself. "Since I have done such a despicable thing, I deserve this little humiliation."

"Sister, there are some things I won't hide from you."

"My little Ying was ostracized at Longxue Academy and eventually lost interest in studying. That's why I wanted to build one."

The madam was amazed at Wright's financial resources and courage.

"Why was the Xiaoying'er mentioned by the young master excluded?"

Wright said calmly: "She's a girl."

The madam's pupils trembled.

"You are the one..."

Wright nodded.

"Yes."

The madam actually felt some admiration for the man in front of her.

"My Lord, you have good intentions, but this won't work. Women are not allowed to attend schools. This has been a customary rule in Shenzhou for thousands of years."

Wright sneered. "Then I'll break this rule."

The madam asked helplessly, "Sir, why are you so persistent?"

"I don't want the girls around me to live only by relying on men. If they change their hearts, they will be kicked aside like trash."

"At the very least, I hope that those girls can have enough food and clothing in this world without having to sell their looks, and walk on the street with their backs held high. Learning music, chess, calligraphy and painting is not to please others, but to please yourself."

The old procuress, who was very good at dealing with people, was also deeply moved by Wright's words. "Sir, I still advise you to stop."

"If I had listened to advice, I wouldn't have ended up like this. I've made up my mind."

The madam smiled.

"Then Sir, if that's the case, I'll give you that piece of land. It can be regarded as helping you in your great cause."

Wright advised: "That's not necessary."

"Sir, to be honest, if you are not desperate, who would want to do this lowly job? Everyone in this line of work has to drink this sterilizing soup to avoid disaster. There are always some who drink it but it is useless. They can't find their father, and even if they do, they won't admit it."

"Men are fine, they just do odd jobs in Bieyun Garden, but women...sigh."

The madam remained silent, not knowing what to say.

"Sister, please pay the money. When the school is built, you can donate money and materials. I won't stop you."

"Okay, I'll hand the deed over to you, sir, and write a receipt."

In this way, Wright bought the gambling house next to Bieyunyuan at a sky-high price.

The next day, the gambling house was completely demolished, and even the soil was replaced by digging three feet underground.

Outsiders don’t know what this is for, but they probably guess that another place for prostitution will be built here.

After all, this is a secluded alley.

With the help of money, the school was built in less than a month.

The facilities inside and the materials used for construction are all the strongest and most durable.

Three large facilities and six or seven small facilities were built.

They are Wenxuan Pavilion, Martial Arts Hall, and Fun House.

The plaque on the gate clearly reads "Women's Academy".

There was no grand opening ceremony, the Women's Academy just opened like that.

Just as the madam said, opening an institution in a brothel caused quite a stir in the entire imperial city and surrounding areas.

And on every notice board in the imperial city, the Jinguo Academy had posters seeking teachers with high salaries and recruiting female students.

In the palace, Long Jiang and Chong Xue played chess.

"Baby, how can Wright still be so troubled when he is already in this state?"

“I think he did a pretty good job.”

As he said this, he quietly stole a piece.

Long Jiang discovered that something was wrong with the chessboard, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"I mean, what is he doing this for?"

As he spoke, Long Jiang narrowed his eyes slightly.

He saw Chongxue stealing the child.

"What are you doing? Put it back. I was wondering what's wrong."

Chongxue shuddered and argued, "I didn't steal."

Chongxue held the two black pieces in his hand and insisted that he did not steal them.

Long Jiang had no choice.

"I'll give you two pieces, just two pieces, don't steal anymore."

Chongxue smiled knowingly and put the two pieces in the black piece jar.

"In fact, I feel that Wright did this not necessarily for the sake of justice for women."

Long Jiang's expression was a little serious.

"You mean, Wright wants to build momentum? Why?"

"Although most of the power in this world is in our hands, there is still a small part that is not controllable. Moreover, this small part of uncontrollable power sometimes causes us troubles. The momentum that Wright wants to create is similar to that small part of power, but it is fundamentally different."

"And given the many oppressions women face, if Wright succeeds in building momentum, its cohesion can be imagined. But Wright is a man, so it may not be appropriate for him to be the leader of that force, or he cannot be the nominal leader."

Long Jiang smiled.

"Wright is a good kid. It's not in vain that Sanbao loves him so much."

Chongxue smiled. "I'm afraid some people don't want to see Wright gaining momentum."

Long Jiang gave a sinister smile.

"That way, I can give it a good pounding."

The Women's Academy has been built for more than half a month, but the saying that there will always be brave men when there is a big reward has not come true.

Even without teachers, the school must continue to operate.

So Wright took on the role of teacher.

Some girls from Bieyun Garden also temporarily took over as teachers who were interested in visiting.

There are only a dozen or so girls in the teaching house.

Except for two who were sent here for school, the rest were the girls who had won the Contraceptive Soup from Bie Yunyuan and the new girls who were bought here.

Wright was not in a hurry, or rather, this was beyond his expectations.

He had no choice but to build the school here. Who would have thought that the brothel next to it would be his biggest help so far.

And listening to the children's laughter, Wright felt a lot better.

Long Xiaochen was helping out when he had nothing to do.

In the next few days, something big seemed to happen in the imperial city, and it was very lively outside.

Wright asked quietly, sipping his tea.

"What happened outside? It's so lively."

Long Xiaochen got off Wright's legs.

"Wait a minute, I'll go out and ask."

Wright smiled helplessly and said, "Master Xiaochen, you are really..."

After a while, Long Xiaochen ran in.

"Little Biscuit, I heard that the army that quelled the rebellion in the east has returned victoriously."

Wright nodded slightly.

"A triumphant return. Good things, good things."

Although they said so, none of them were very interested in watching the fun.

On the streets outside, residents of the imperial city lined the roads to welcome them.

The leader of the army was a female general riding a Ferghana horse and wearing silver armor.

The female general was extremely brave and ruthless.

Under the helmet was her stunning face, and a saber hung on the side of her Arabian horse.

And she was also looking casually at the enthusiastic crowd around her.

The female general's name is Dongfang Lizhu. She is the only female general in the Qinglong Dynasty and even in Shenzhou.

She is the only daughter of General Dongfang Hong from the Dongfang family.

Just as Dongfang Lizhu was suppressing her boredom and continuing her triumphal parade, she saw a school.

There is nothing wrong with having an institution, but it is rather abstract when it is located next to a brothel.

And the name of the school is also very intriguing.

"Academy for Women? Hmm, interesting."

After returning to the palace to report and being commended, Dongfang Lizhu returned home.

And her best friend, Shang Caiwei, the daughter of Shangshu Lang, had been waiting for a long time.

Shang Caiwei is the kind of lady from a noble family who couldn't be more typical.

The two have known each other since childhood and grew up together.

If they were able to have children, they would have been together a long time ago.

"You are back, my great general."

Dongfang Lizhu ignored Shang Caiwei's teasing and silently took off her armor.

Revealing the curvy figure beneath the armor.

When she untied her hair, her long black hair fell freely like a waterfall.

After changing into a set of home clothes, Dongfang Lizhu casually threw the bag wrapped in paper to Shang Caiwei.

“It’s a specialty over there.”

Shang Caiwei's beautiful eyes moved slightly, and her delicate hands quickly opened the paper bag. Inside were several extremely exquisite pastries, which had been well preserved along the way.

"The general is really thoughtful."

Dongfang Lizhu gave Shang Caiwei a cold look, and that look was full of charm.

Dongfang Lizhu sat down, picked up the tea that Shang Caiwei had prepared in advance, took a sip, and asked, "Did anything new happen in the imperial city during the time that the general was away?"
