Chapter 21 Confucian Hu Xun, come to visit!

Looking at the man who kept kowtowing and repeating, Chen Ming sighed again, and it was a little heavy. If these people didn't look like Chinese people, they wouldn't be like this, but they looked too similar. In addition to the culture here, Chen Ming felt a little uncomfortable. It seemed that he had really traveled back to ancient times, and he was not a person with a heart of heart.

"Get up, don't be too polite." Chen Ming took two steps forward and helped the man up with his own hands. The man seemed to be afraid that his clothes would dirty Chen Ming's hands, so he did not dare to struggle. He said with some evasiveness along the way: "Thank you, young master, don't dirty your clothes."

After saying that, he turned around and shouted, "Huzi! Come and thank you young master, and you guys, look at me, fellow villagers!! The young master is here!! Our benefactor is here!!"

With his voice, the people who were already paying attention to this place were suddenly in an uproar. They were so brave that they hurried over. They didn't dare to come and knelt down on the spot, kowtowing to Chen Ming from a distance, and thanking the young master everywhere.

Widths of mysterious and yellow aura emanated towards Chen Ming, making Chen Ming understand where the huge merits of yesterday came from. It seems that this is not a one-time deal.

Chen Ming stood in the center of the crowd, looking at the people kneeling at him all over the ground, feeling complicated for a moment. After a while, he said to the dozens of people in front of him with a gentle voice: "Get up, listen to me."

Under his consolation, the crowd gradually stood up, and Chen Ming said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, build the houses, I will build several workshops to provide you with grain. All you need is to work hard and farm well. In the future, the academy will be built. People aged eight to fifteen in the village can enter the academy for free. As long as you work hard, I guarantee that you will not be hungry in the future!"

When everyone heard Chen Ming's words, they were about to kneel down again. Seeing this, Chen Ming said calmly: "Okay, go and tell others this news. I still have something to do, so let me take a step first."

After saying that, Chen Ming crossed the crowd surrounded by Canglong Guard and gradually left. He didn't know when he would be kneeling until he didn't leave.

After walking away, he sighed deeply. No matter which world it is, the people are pitiful.

"Teacher..." Wang Wei wanted to speak but stopped.

"What's the matter?" Chen Ming asked lightly.

"I admire what the Master did!" Wang Wei said awe-inspiringly. There are not many people in this world who are willing to accept common people as disciples. Unless they are really talented, even in the farming family, most of their disciples are children of aristocratic families, where will they have the influence?

Chen Ming: "…"

Then should I thank you for your admiration?

After holding it in for a while, Chen Ming said: "No need to do this. What I have learned is nothing different. What others have learned is useful knowledge."

"I wonder if the dog can join the Master..." Wang Wei asked embarrassedly. He didn't know what Chen Ming was doing, but it would be unusual to be called Master by the second young master. He seemed afraid that Chen Ming would refuse, and then said, "Of course, I won't make things difficult for the Master. I am willing to prepare generous gifts."

Although Chen Ming just said it was free, he couldn't just take advantage of it. Although he was not rich, he still understood the rules.

Chen Ming glanced at him with a funny look and asked, "How old is your son?"

"This year is exactly thirteen."

"Okay, I'll send it back to me and take it if it's right." Chen Ming said lightly.

He didn't dislike the many disciples. If he only passed on a few words, he was afraid that they would never learn anything in his life. Science is the field of genius.

"Thank you, Master." Wang Wei laughed. After this, the two of them got closer. He took Chen Ming to visit the land again and discussed the address of the college and workshop with the people of the Shaofu. The architectural style, etc.

After discussing with them, Chen Ming asked them to build a wooden bridge similar to a dock on the water surface. The college must be able to accommodate 3,000 people to go to school and accommodation. There are requirements for each place, such as where the canteen is, where the big classes are, where the people from each subject are, where the small classroom is, etc.

Chen Ming asked the craftsmen of Shaofu to write down one by one. This is not difficult for them. The slightly larger academies in the world all have this scale. The Confucian Academy, the world's No. 1 Confucian Academy, is known as 100,000 disciples. At the same time, there are probably tens of thousands of disciples in the academy. The scale of this academies is much smaller than that of Confucians.

"How long will it take to be completed?" Chen Ming asked.

"It will take about half a year." The head of the craftsman said carefully, and Chen Ming frowned and said, "So long?"

Academics of this size are only one week in a country that was known as infrastructure madman in the previous life.

"This is almost done." The craftsman smiled bitterly.

"Let's do this, I'll tell you a recipe. If you develop it, it should increase the speed." Chen Ming said.

"I don't know what formula it is?" the craftsman asked carefully. Anything that involves formula is a secret method.

"Cement." Chen Ming said lightly. Now the nobles of the royal palaces in this world use glutinous rice tri-corrosion soil to solidify the gaps between bricks and stones. Not only is it expensive, but it is also difficult and slow to prepare. There is already a scarce grain, and it is also necessary to use glutinous rice to build houses. This is simply luxurious. The common people just add some grass into yellow mud, or ordinary tri-corrosion soil.

Cement is different. Just add a little iron ore powder that has been scrapped after iron smelting, and there is no technical barrier.

After Chen Ming told the craftsman the cement formula, the craftsman was excited and confused, saying: "If it is true as the young master said, the academy can be built in only three months, and the cost will be greatly reduced."

The iron ore powder that is trained is always cheaper than glutinous rice.

"Well, do your best." Chen Ming nodded, ended his communication with the craftsmen, and took Hongyu back to Xiuchun Tower. When the road was bumpy, Chen Ming made up his mind to repair the road in the future.

"Young Master, you really know everything." On the carriage, Hongyu looked at Chen Ming with bright eyes, feeling her eyes full of stars.

People say that if they like someone, they will shine in their eyes. This is perfectly reflected in Hongyu. A smile appeared on Chen Ming's face and said, "Of course, your son can do everything, do you believe it?"

"Hongyu believes." Hongyu nodded without hesitation. Chen Ming laughed in silence, touched her little head and said, "Silly girl."

The carriage drove into the south city of Yeyang City, and there were crowds of people in front of the door of Xiuchun Tower. Men in gorgeous robes entered with tacit smiles. The carriage gradually came and the crowd separated. So an old man in a white robe and white hair appeared in front of the carriage. He stood there quietly without moving.

Finally, the carriage slowly stopped, and the old man stood with his hands behind his back and said solemnly to the carriage: "Confucian Hu Xun, I heard that Master Chen Ming lived here, so I came to visit me! Please get off the car and see me!"
Chapter completed!
