I'm a marquis in Datang

Du Qidao: "What Mr. Wang said is true. The private school is already undergoing renovation. Another point is the selection of the teachers of the academy. Mr. Wang will contact people first. If there are not enough people, I will recruit some more."

"Row!"

Wang Ji answered with a nod.

Du Qidao: "Mr. Wang will live in Du's house for the time being. After the private school is properly decorated, Mr. Wang will move here. During this time, Mr. Wang must have a lot of things to do, so he can discuss with me at any time at Du's house. .”

Wang Ji nodded in agreement.

He looked it over again, and he knew what he knew, so he left with Du Qi.

Du Qi brought Wang Ji back to Du's house, just as Wang Ji was settled, Du Ruhui came to Du Qi's yard, he entered the room, sat down and said, "Erlang, you really invited Wang Ji to be the principal of the private school? "

Du Qi nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Wang has agreed. Now, he lives in our house for the time being. After the selected private school is properly decorated, he will move in."

Du Ruhui said: "Wang Ji is a talented person. Such a person, even the King of Qin, is extremely eager. You boy, you are really impressive. Not bad, not bad, very powerful."

Du Qidao: "Father is absurd."

Du Ruhui said seriously: "Speaking of which, this private school of yours only recruits the children of workers under your command. Do you want to recruit the rest?"

Du Qidao: "It is not open to the outside world for the time being, father asked, is there something wrong?"

Du Ruhui said: "There are also some people in our Du family, all of whom are descendants of the family. In fact, these people have no chance to study. I mean, when the time comes, people from the Du family will also be included."

"no problem!"

Du Qidao: "Father, don't worry, this will be arranged directly."

Du Ruhui asked again: "What is your private school called Academy?"

Du Qidao: "The academy's name is very simple, it is Datang Academy. Anyway, no one has ever used the four characters "Datang Academy". Not only that, I will ask His Majesty to inscribe the four characters "Datang Academy."

Du Ruhui said: "It's not easy."

Du Qidao: "Father, my son believes that His Majesty will be happy. This matter is not difficult."

Du Ruhui said: "That's right, His Majesty has always been extremely doting towards you, you kid. You always respond to His Majesty's requests, even the princes in the court are not as favored as you."

Du Qidao: "Father, this is my son treating others with sincerity, so His Majesty values ​​me."

Du Ruhui smashed his mouth.

This sounded strange, but he also shook his head and smiled helplessly. He couldn't compare to his son.Because Du Qi's weight in Li Yuan's heart is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Du Ruhui changed the subject, said something else, then got up and left.

Chapter 344 Convincing Li Yuan

Persuade Li Yuan

The next day, early in the morning.

Today's weather is rarely sunny.The snow has dissipated, and the sun is shining on the earth.However, in such a cold winter, even if there is sunshine, it is still cold and windy.If the hands are kept outside, the cold will soon freeze the bones, which is very uncomfortable.

This is the weather today.

Du Qi was wearing a down jacket, sitting in the yard drinking tea, basking in the sun, and the days were extraordinarily comfortable.

The whole morning passed by in a hurry.

In the afternoon, Du Qi had lunch and took a lunch break before entering the palace with the latest manuscript to meet Li Yuan.The two books, Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Romance of the Gods, are now entering the final stage, and there are not many remaining chapters.

Du Qi entered the palace, handed over the latest books, and stood aside.

After reading it, Li Yuan looked up at Du Qi, and asked, "Erlang, speaking of it, there are so many negative news about Wang Zongzhou in the Tang Daily, you boy, you are really powerful."

Du Qidao: "Your Majesty's absurd praise, the kid also has no choice but to fight back, it's a helpless move."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Wang Zongzhou has become a turtle now, hiding in Chang'an City and seeing no outsiders. This kind of Wang Zongzhou has only been slandered, and there is no real damage. In my opinion, he will definitely retaliate against you. You have to prepare early."

Du Qidao: "Soldiers come to cover the water and soil, and wait and see the changes for the time being. What's more, this is Chang'an City, not Taiyuan. If I were in the old nest of the Wang family, I would be afraid of Wang Zongzhou, but in Chang'an, I am not afraid of Wang Zongzhou."

Li Yuan said: "Your boy is confident."

Du Qidao: "The kid's self-confidence comes from His Majesty. After all, His Majesty is helping the kid."

Li Yuan looked at Xiao Li immediately, and said with a smile, "Xiao Li, did you hear that, Du Erlang's mouth is capable of flattering you about anything. This kid has such a brilliant tongue."

Du Qi looked aggrieved, and said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, you have broken me. The boy is telling the truth, if His Majesty does not help, the boy will definitely not be able to face the Wang family so smoothly."

Li Yuan stroked his beard and smiled, and said with concern: "Anyway, be careful, kid."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."

After Du Qi thanked, he said again: "Your Majesty, in fact, I have something else to do today, and I hope to get your Majesty's help."

Li Yuan said: "But it doesn't matter."

Du Qidao: "My boy is going to open a private school in Yongxing Square, called Datang Academy. My boy, I implore, Your Majesty bestows a letter, so that thousands of future students of my boy's Datang Academy can admire His Majesty's glory."

Hearing this, Li Yuan narrowed his eyes.

He didn't say yes right away.

After a short pause, Li Yuan said in a deep voice: "Erlang, you just opened a down jacket store and made a lot of money. Now, are you going to change direction and make money through the academy?"

Du Qi makes money, and a gentleman loves money in a proper way. Li Yuan approves of it and is willing to support him vigorously.

Reading is a sacred thing.

Li Yuan believes that this should not be exhausted to make money, and you cannot make countless money.The Tang Dynasty needs thousands of students and talents, so we can't let people keep sucking the blood of scholars.

Du Qi wants to take advantage of this, but Li Yuan does not agree.

It was Du Qi, Li Yuan asked.

If it were someone else, Li Yuan would have scolded him long ago, scolding him bloody.

Du Qi said: "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood me. The kid started Datang Academy for three reasons."

Li Yuan said: "Let's hear it!"

Du Qi explained: "Your Majesty, this is the first reason and the most important reason. The boy once promised to the workers who worked for me to tell them that anyone who works for me, Du Qi, I will let their heirs , can no longer face the loess and back to the sky, no longer need to nest in the mountain village, and can read and write."

"That's my original intention."

"Because whether it's the workers in tea shops, or restaurants, or bookstores, or even workers in down jacket stores, many people come from mountain villages, and they are not well-off people."
