Chapter 488: Frozen three feet, not a day's cold

Whether in the East or the West, the pace of human civilization is roughly the same. Any civilization accumulates to a certain extent and will inevitably reproduce something new.

The difference is that there is a scientific system in Western civilization that exists since Aristotle, and there has been one in Eastern civilization before, but it soon withered, and there is no such thing in the entire civilization system afterwards.

In fact, this has nothing to do with people. Whether it is the East or the West, many geniuses in this field have emerged in this era of scientific boom.

It’s just that others have system bonuses. This system can gather the wisdom of a large number of geniuses and continue to carry forward them. However, only one fights alone here, most of them are still dead.

However, the germination of capital has already appeared in Weihui Mansion, and this capital idea will inevitably promote the progress of science, because benevolence and righteousness and morality cannot make money, and only by continuous creation can we make more money.

This is why a year ago, Guo Dan could not meet talents in this field at all, but this time when he came to Weihui Mansion, talents in this field emerged one after another.

This is not luck, but an inevitable result.

Guo Dan believes that more talents in this field will emerge.

However, without a scientific system as the basis, progress will still be very slow and unstable, and may disappear one day, because science cannot be separated from theoretical foundations, and pure technology is just a personal talent or experience, and it is difficult to pass on the world.

This must be coordinated with education.

The private colleges in Kaifeng Prefecture are also crucial to Guo Dan. This is a talent reserve database. Without talent, it is difficult for him to achieve something alone.

However, any new thing will inevitably be suppressed by the old forces. This is not a bad person, but a result of human nature. If new people come to this city, the old people will naturally not be willing to let new people make decisions.

This must be achieved through your own efforts.

The current status of Confucianism is not because it has fallen from the world, but because countless Confucian children have made their own faith and worked hard for many years. The two sages of Confucius and Mencius were not successful at that time.

Guo Dan had just finished dealing with the matter at the ironworks workshop, and before he could catch his breath, wealthy businessmen such as Qinzhuang, Duan Changcun, and Hu Yuan came to visit him.

"What do you guys ask me for?"

Guo Dan looked at them with a little curiosity.

Recently, everyone has been doing well in the business and nothing happened.

Qin Zhuang asked, "Nephew, what is the situation in your Promise Academy?"

Guo Dan was stunned and said, "It should be under construction at the moment. Why did Mr. Qin ask this?"

Qin Zhuang said embarrassedly: "My grandson wrote to me, saying that he didn't want to go to Yinuo Academy, but to go to Nanjing Academy."

This Nanjing Academy was naturally established by Su Xu and other famous Nanjing scholars. Although they are not in Nanjing, they represent Nanjing, and famous scholars from all over the world are named after their hometowns.

Only the local people in Kaifeng Prefecture did not name Kaifeng Academy, but Laoqiu Academy, because it is said that Laoqiu is the first capital of Chinese civilization. In order to show his profound background, he was named Laoqiu Academy.

Duan Changcun also said: "My youngest son doesn't want to go to Yinuo Academy."

Hu Yuan and others also expressed their sons and grandsons who wrote letters, saying that they did not want to study in Yinuo Academy.

Guo Tan asked: "Did they say why?"

“It’s really annoying.”

Qin Zhuang clenched his fist and punched his palm, and said, "What did my grandson say that only the inferior ones can go to Yinuo Academy to learn the strange and lewd tricks. If you want to become a superior person, you have to go to Nanjing Academy. This really makes me angry. He said this, isn't he just calling himself a inferior one?"

Duan Changcun said depressedly: "My youngest son also means that. Let's ask what happened and how it turned out like this."

When Guo Dan was there, many people slandered Yinuo Academy, but at that time, the children of the merchants were very determined. There were many people who signed up for Yinuo Academy. However, the other party’s public opinion war was really not hyped up, and they were slandering and slandering there every day.

Moreover, they will understand the details of the people who will go to Yinuo Academy to register and start to slander them in a targeted manner.

As a result, these businessmen's children began to shake, and they were despised when they went out to the streets. Who could bear this?

Guo Tan smiled and said, "Actually, I already knew about this in advance. There are some misunderstandings. I will go to Kaifeng Prefecture in two days, and I will deal with it at that time."

"That's good, that's good."

Qin Zhuang nodded repeatedly and said angrily: "That evil son is really ignorant. If he can pass the imperial examination, then I will not let him come to Kaifeng Prefecture!"

"That's right!"

Guo Dan nodded embarrassedly, feeling amused and amazed. You are also demoting my Yinuo Academy to a lower-level academic institution. Only those who fail to pass the imperial examination will come to my Yinuo Academy.

As soon as he saw Qin Zhuang and others leave, Aunt Xu came back from outside.

"It just happened that I saw that Qin Yuanwai and the others had just left. What happened?"

Aunt Xu asked.

Guo Dan sighed, "This ice is three feet long, not a day's cold!"

Aunt Xu was stunned and said, "How do you say this?"

Guo Dan immediately informed Aunt Xu about their purpose here.

Aunt Xu said: "This is expected. Did you think it was a little too simple before?"

She always thought that Guo Dan was very irrational in competing with the famous scholars in the academy. The key was that he was too fierce, and the first private college in the Ming Dynasty, wasn’t this a scolding?

Guo Dan said angrily: "It's not that I thought it too simply. I was forced to do it at that time. Those bastards forced me to send Kaifeng, Huaiqing and Zhangde's three palaces, but they didn't allow me to do business. I not only opened a college, but I was embarrassed at the moment, but the crisis of the three governments has eased and I still achieved my goal."

Son of a bitch?

Aunt Xu's face looked a little weird and said, "In this way, you don't value Yinuo Academy, it's just a bait."

"Of course not!"

Guo Dan snorted: "I invested tens of thousands of taels in. The bait is so valuable, I can eat it every day."

Aunt Xu hesitated for a little and said, "In fact, the situation may be even more serious than you think."

Guo Dan said oh and asked, "Does the layman know what?"

Aunt Xu said, "I just went to see Mr. Baiquan and others. For this reason, some of their students stood up for you in Kaifeng Prefecture and argued with those famous scholars. Unfortunately, they were outnumbered and were about to be driven out of Kaifeng Prefecture by them. Mr. Baiquan and others planned to rush to Kaifeng Prefecture immediately. They hope you can go together."

"Hold on the wrong side? I didn't let them do this, and they might not be for me."

Guo Dan rolled his eyes and said, "I plan to rush to Kaifeng Prefecture right away, but I definitely won't walk with them. I just said that the three feet of ice is not a day's cold. They want to completely deny the Theorem. They are not gods, so how can they do it?"

Aunt Xu said: "With that being said, how can you compete with the world's famous people alone? You need help from others."

"unnecessary!"

Guo Dan shook his head and said, "This is just a deal. I don't want to compete with them. You must know that they are the big financial owners of Kaifeng Prefecture, the main consumer. I want to drive them away. Kaifeng Prefecture is over. This matter cannot be won or defeated. We must constantly create arguments and attract more people to come to Kaifeng Prefecture to spend money."

Aunt Xu is really speechless. This is a little too businessman. When is this? You still want to make money.

Guo Dan smiled at Aunt Xu again and said, "Laby, I have to ask you for this matter. I am afraid that they will help me worse. If they stand up, it will become a dispute between ideas and schools. I am not good at this, and I don't want to fall into their mud pit. The key is that they can't fight. You can tell them not to speak out first and watch me perform."

Seeing that Guo Dan was full of confidence, Aunt Xu nodded and said, "Okay. I think they are very happy to watch your performance."

It just so happened that the matter here was almost done. If he came back, Guo Dan would set off for Kaifeng Prefecture immediately.

In fact, Li Zhi and the others followed him, but they left separately. Guo Dan didn't want to get involved with them for the time being. They were all crazy people. Do you know what trouble they would cause. In addition, Guo Dan had already made arrangements for this matter and didn't need their help.

After a few days of travel, the group came to the outskirts of Kaifeng Prefecture.

"Brother Guo!"

"Son-in-law!"

Two teenagers rushed over.

It was Chenchen and Cao Xiaodong. They came to Guo Dan. They all had tears in their eyes, both grievance and guilt, pouting and bowing their heads without saying a word.

The two of them have been smooth sailing since their debut, but when they came to Kaifeng Prefecture, they were defeated and were taught so much that they couldn't even raise their heads.

They felt that they had no face to see Guo Dan.

"Okay, OK!"

Guo Dan touched their little heads and smiled and said, "You two weak chickens are not the opponents of those big bad wolves. Just do the business well. How is our Yino Academy building?"

Chen Chen lowered his head and said nothing.

Guo Tan asked, "What? You haven't done this well?"

Chen Chen said nervously: "Son-in-law, Yinuo Academy has not been built yet!"

Guo Dan rolled his eyes and said, "Of course I know that it has not been built. If you can build it so quickly, then you can sit in my seat."

Chen Chen said again: "But the Nanjing Academy is about to be built."

"!"

Guo Dan said in a daze: "What did you say? It was built so quickly. After only a few months, have they built a few small thatched huts?"

Chen Chen shook his head.

Cao Xiaodong immediately said: "Brother Guo, their college is also very large and is built with wood. Mainly, during this period, the surrounding prefectures gave them great support and transported a large amount of wood to them. The houses they built were also very simple, so they were built very quickly. Most of our Yinuo Academy was built with bricks and tiles. Except for Weihui Palace, the surrounding prefectures did not support us, so they were not as fast as they were."

Although other prefectures on Henan Road do not want outsiders to rob the enemy, they hate Guo Dan even more. As long as they oppose Guo Dan, everyone will support him very much. He is the one who has money and the one who has strong power.

Try him! Try him! Try him to death!

Guo Dan said: "This is a good thing, and it has increased a lot of income for Kaifeng Prefecture. I did a good job and did a good job, haha!"

Cao Xiaodong and Chenchen looked at each other, then secretly glanced at Guo Dan, with his little face full of confusion.

As soon as Guo Dan set foot in Kaifeng Prefecture, the news had already reached the ears of the famous scholars.

"Mr., the student just received the news that Guo Dan had already arrived in Kaifeng Prefecture."

Huang Daxiao said to Su Xu.

"It's been here!"

Su Xu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this.

Huang Daxiao said in confusion: "My teacher seems to hope Guo Dan will come here early."
