Next, Su Qin also took the lead in introducing everyone present to Li Wufeng. It should be said that these guests were invited by Xiao Tang, Su Qin, Wang Liao, Wang Zongxi, He Jing and others through various private channels. The invitations were jointly issued by the Northwest Military and Political Jiedushi and the Kansai Military and Political Jiedushi. In the name of the invitations were invited to visit the northwest and Kansai and inspect the economic and social undertakings in the western Xinjiang region of the Tanghe Empire, and invited everyone to give lectures in the northwest and Kansai. This invitation with extremely high standards is undoubtedly a symbol of considerable reputation and qualifications. Being able to receive such invitations is naturally a supreme honor. Therefore, after receiving the invitation letter jointly issued by the Jiedushi of the two counties, almost no one could refuse such invitations with academic visits.

This is the third batch of invitation letters sent by Li Wufeng. The people who came were much more important than the guests invited in the previous two times. Especially in the East China Sea, Jiangnan and Wuhu were in war, and there were foreign invasions in the north, the invitation letter also specifically indicated that guests were invited to travel with their families to travel to Li Wufeng's jurisdiction outside of Li Wufeng's empire - the Western Regions, the Tengger Grassland, the Northern Luzon, and the Burmese land, to experience the scenery of the exotic region. This extremely tempting invitation finally attracted many

The first and second batch of important guests who are biased against the Northwest and Kansai. After all, they can take their wives, children, and children for free to visit the mainland and enjoy exotic customs. This is also a rare opportunity in life. Moreover, the other party has such a sincere invitation. If you really refuse again, it really seems a bit unkind. In addition, there is constant wars in various places, and you can avoid some unexpected natural disasters and man-made disasters when traveling and giving lectures. At least the long-stabilized western region has never heard of any problems in public security.

Wufeng was treated with etiquette and did not dare to neglect at all. This is why Wufeng asked Xiao and Su to accompany him to meet him. He wanted to use this attitude and specification to fully show his importance to talents. You should know that although these people are not nobles and tycoons, they are all famous people from all counties and governments in the empire. Some educate everyone, have disciples everywhere, some are leading medical experts, countless living people, and have a reputation. Some are secluded talents.

Although scholars have little contact with the outside world, they have made great achievements in academics. Some have not entered the officialdom, but are great talents in governing the country and ensuring national stability. They have failed to retaliate because of their background or other factors. Once these people can offer suggestions for themselves, they will definitely be able to make their rule more stable. Even if they are unwilling to serve themselves, their reputation of being respectful to the wise and honest in others can spread throughout the empire and abroad, which is enough to attract more knowledgeable people to serve.

Almost every time he walked to a guest, Wufeng always had to exchange experiences with the other party about the road that the other party was good at. Although this was a bit time-consuming and troublesome, it was enough to prove Wufeng's respect and respect for the guests. This made almost all guests feel grateful to the Northwest King who was powerful in the empire from the bottom of his heart. After all, no matter how famous they are, none of them are from a noble family. In terms of unpleasant words, they are called white, and the other party has already rejected the title of King Qin.

"Mr. Ganquan, Yuelu Academy is famous for Xiaoxiang, and its disciples are everywhere in the Five Lakes. However, the Wu Lake area was originally a rich place for the empire and had good educational conditions. However, Li's jurisdiction, such as the northwest, south and even Guanxi, was located in the western border of the empire, and his social undertakings were lagging behind for a long time. Although Li was also willing to develop the education in these places, he was helplessly lacking in staff and was unable to have enough strength. For example, those in Northern Luzon, Burmese, Western Regions, and Tengger Grassland, admired me even more of the Tanghe culture, thoughts and arts, and longed to be bathed in our Tanghe culture, thoughts and arts. With Mr. Qiu's mind, can't we open several academies in Li's territory, so that people in backward areas have more opportunities to receive education, and give the people who have transformed into other countries the opportunity to rely on the rain and dew that inherited the Tanghe civilization?"

The old man who had always remained humble and elegant, although his face was calm after hearing Li Wufeng's words, Wufeng felt a slight change from the other party's half-closed eyes.

To be honest, Li Wufeng's remarks are indeed a bit tempting. The situation in the empire is now in chaos. Although Yueyang has not been greatly affected, the Wuhu area has actually been controlled by several major forces. The six major academies in the empire, whether it is the Zhongzhou Songyang Academy in the imperial capital, the Jinling Shigu Academy and the Jiujiang Bailudong Academy, or the Yuhang Qiantang Academy and the Gusu Donglin Academy in the south of the Yangtze River, have been more or less affected by the chaos. From the observations from oneself to Guanxi, there is no situation in the northwest of the country and the people in peace.

Affected by the war in the empire, if the influence of Yuelu Academy can be extended to Guanxi and northwest, it can educate the world, and it can also enable Yuelu Academy to continue to maintain its influence on the entire imperial cultural and educational circles. The other party’s extraterritorial teaching proposal made the old man feel excited. If the essence of the Tanghe nation’s cultural, ideological and artistic qualities can be transmitted to foreign regions outside the empire, the reputation of Yuelu Academy will be far more than the current situation, and its own name may be permanently recorded in history and will shine through the ages.

Seeing the old man seemingly pondering, Wufeng didn't press on but threw the topic to another middle-aged rich scholar next to him who seemed to be interested in his words: "Mr. Guishan, the sound of wind and rain sounds and readings are heard, family affairs and national affairs are concerned about everything in the world. This couplet has won the praise of many literati throughout the empire. When Li was young, he was also excited by reading this couplet. The major education events in the northwest, Guanxi and Tiannan are also considered state affairs? And Northern Luzon, Western Regions, Myanmar and Tengger are also considered within the world. Donglin Academy has ambition to educate the world. Haven't it thought of doing its part to the people far away in Western Xinjiang and even outside the region?"

The eyes of the old man and the rich scholar quietly collided in the air after Wufeng's words, and then turned away. Both sides seemed to understand what each other wanted. As both imperial education experts, Donglin Academy and Yuelu Academy were among the six major academies. Competition was inevitable. Donglin Academy dominated the south of the Yangtze River, and Yuelu Academy was famous in the five lakes and each led the way. However, with the turbulent situation in the empire, the academies were inevitably affected. How to continue to maintain the influence of the academies and even expand the influence has become the first issue that the helmsmen of major academies need to consider, and now it seems that this opportunity has come.

"Two gentlemen, the people of Western Xinjiang are eager to receive education and it is a great merit if the people outside the region can get bathed in the Tanghe civilization. I think the two gentlemen will definitely not disappoint the people in Western Xinjiang. Li thanked him first. Of course, Li also knew that establishing a college and Everbright education is not a piece of paper, and it is necessary. Li also solemnly promised that if the academy can be built in any place under Li's jurisdiction, the local government will provide free land and build all buildings free of charge according to the requirements of the academy. Every year, governments at all levels can allocate a certain amount of education expenses to purchase books and support scholars according to the scale of the academy. The government will not interfere with the academy's lecture style and affairs."

Wufeng's decisive words immediately shocked the old man Qian Chong and the rich scholar almost at the same time, and asked in unison: "Sir, do you think this is true?"

No wonder the two of them were so out of character. You should know that the meaning of Li Wufeng's words was to treat academies that were originally private schools as treated as public schools. This was the first time that the entire empire was created. Not only were the two excited and ecstatic, but the others around them were shocked by Li Wufeng's words. You should know that running education is a long-term and lasting business that has no output. This is also the main reason why both Donglin Academy and Yuelu Academy are in the economically developed areas of the empire. Only in this environment are the many wealthy gentry and merchants in the local area.

Only with support can the school be maintained. The consumption of academy is quite large. In addition to daily support, the school also needs to provide assistance to poor students to help outstanding students complete their studies. Although it does not require money to invite famous scholars from all over the country to give lectures, it is also a considerable expense. There are many things that seem nothing, but it seems very difficult to maintain the money like a school without any source of income and relying solely on donation support funds. This is especially a cause that requires years and years of persistence. It is no wonder that the helmsman of the academy has to be careful.

"Mr. Li always speaks with words, but never loses his words." Wufeng waved his hand to stop Xiao Tang, who was about to say something, and said decisively.

"Okay, Yang Shi, here I, is also solemnly promising that Donglin Academy will build a new Donglin Academy branch in Hanzhong within the year. Donglin Academy will send the best students and disciples to teach here." The rich scholar snatched the folding fan and snatched the old man Qian Chong, saying word by word. Although the voice was not loud, his tone was unquestionable.

Yang Shi stole his head and Qian Chonghou the old man was upset, but with his heart, he just passed by his heart and said with a smile: "Mr. Guishan chose Guanxi, and Zhan Ruoshui, on behalf of Yuelu Academy, asked Lord Li to build a house on the outskirts of Qingyang City. Yuelu Academy will also send disciples to the northwest to set up a branch within the year to do its best to promote my Tanghe culture, thought and art."

Qingyang is located at the junction of the Middle East and the intersection of the Eastern and Central China civilizations, and is also the center of the northwest. There are many immigrants from all over the country and ethnic groups. The old man Qianchong wants to use this to expand the influence of Yuelu Academy and lay the foundation for Yuelu Academy to march to the Central China in the future.

Yang Shi - an educator in the Song Dynasty, a Fujian general, with a name named Lu Li and a pseudonym Guishan. Donglin Academy was named after its "Lid Walk on the Donglin Road" and was named after it.
