Naturally, when she said that she was a lady, she was referring to the cost of raising a daughter for a year from a high-ranking family in Beijing.

In real terms, different families have different expenses, but no matter how they are calculated, the expenses of women from rich and noble families are indispensable.

For the imperial court, just adding a line of small characters on the door plaque and inscription can solve the big trouble of building the academy. It can be said that this matter is beneficial and harmless to the imperial court and Yunyanzhu.

One thing that Lou Rongrong didn't say clearly is that the Yun family built an academy for women all over the world. After a hundred years, it will definitely retain a good reputation among women. By then, with such a reputation, women all over the world will be grateful However, it may be difficult for Yun's firm to decline.

In Daqing, if you want to find a business firm as rich and powerful as Yun's that can single-handedly build all the academies in Daqing, there are only a handful of them, or you can directly say that there is basically no one else except Yun's.

Even the most mysterious owner of Mingyue Building in the capital city only has businesses in the capital city and a few wealthy cities, and most of them are women's makeup and clothing, and belong to some restaurants, far less extensive than the Yun family.

It is worth mentioning that the Yun family earned a lot of money, and the Daqing court could also reap a considerable amount of taxes. In this way, the court's finances could go further, forming a virtuous circle.

Ying Ze watched her eating snacks, smiled and poured a cup of tea with his own hands, and handed it to her to relieve her boredom:

"Eat slowly, don't choke. Fluffy's method sounds like the "win-win" you and I used to say?"

Lou Rongrong took the teacup and said with a smile:

"Exactly. Neither the imperial court nor the Yun family suffers, and both get what they want. Isn't it a win-win situation?"

"Rongrong has already thought about it. After the academy is completed, I will ask Brother Yun to set up a project for me. If there are women who want to study but cannot afford the school, they can apply to Yun's Commercial Firm." Receive a sum of money, and after verification by the Yun family, it will be paid directly to the local academy for girls from poor families to study."

This is what she thought about early in the morning. She has supported an academy for only one year, and she knows that with the current financial resources of the court, it is impossible for all the women in the world to study for free. There is a chance to read.

The advantage of using the name of a commercial firm instead of the imperial court is that you don’t have to argue with those courtiers who are afraid of bleeding themselves, and the specific rules and amounts can be adjusted flexibly, and you can even learn about the repairs and expenses of academies in various places. The first-hand data is probably more credible than the accounts handed over by the Ministry of Accounts.

Ying Ze obviously also thought of this, and was silent for a moment:

"Let Zheng Baisheng take you to the private treasury of the royal family in a while, you can take whatever you need, and ask Zheng Baisheng to make a list later, and send everything to the palace."

Lou Rongrong knew at a glance that Ying Ze had to use the academy's responsibilities to dismiss the officials of the court because he had to clean up the factions in the court. As a result, the officials who finally took office in the academy might have resentment, or they themselves resisted women's study, and instead Guilty about the results.

She sighed slightly in her heart, but knew that this must be inevitable.

Most men in the world have been influenced by the social environment since they were young, and they have a lot of contempt for women. Even without this experience, local officials will never be able to devote themselves to the academy like her.

But Lou Rongrong did not reject Ying Ze's kindness. In this joint, any help is invaluable. More money can help a few more girls to read and write.

Therefore, when Zheng Baisheng led her to the private treasury of the royal family, she was not polite, but what she took most was the real money in the treasury.

After Lou Rongrong came out of the palace, before he even had time to change into a suit of clothes, he hurried to the academy by car.

All the girls in the academy knew that Lou Rongrong had entered the palace today, and they needed to know the result of this assessment.

Although the academy has not closed classes today, all the teachers who are teaching can clearly feel that everyone's heart is not in the class. Every time after a while, each of them can't help but turn their heads to look out the window, wondering if Lou Rongrong has come back.

In desperation, Mr. can only stop today's class, let everyone study by themselves, check for omissions and make up for the vacancies, but he is thinking about it, thinking about Lou Rongrong, and can't help but look out of the window.

After Lou Rongrong came to the academy, whoever saw Lou Rongrong enter the door from the window first shouted:

"The princess is back!"

Immediately, everyone was shocked, and as soon as they dropped the book, they all rushed out.

In Lou Rongrong's eyes, as soon as he entered the door, no matter the students or the teacher, they all rushed out of the school door like a school fire drill in the previous life, and in a short while they all gathered in the open space in front of the school, one by one. Looking at Lou Rongrong, she looked like some kind of small animal that couldn't wait to beg for food.

She was directly blocked at the door, and couldn't even get an inch in.

The impatient Zhao Beier asked directly:

"Princess! Did we pass the examination? Can women also take the imperial examination?"

Lou Rongrong touched the little girl's head and said with a smile:

"That's natural."

The little girl opened her almond eyes, which were as round as big glass beads, with a face full of disbelief:

"Passed? Have you really passed? Then I will be able to take part in the imperial examinations and get honors just like my younger brother?"

Lou Rongrong smiled and nodded.

Another older girl, who was going to marry if she couldn't study, was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but squeezed to the front to confirm again:

"Princess, do you really mean that we can continue to study in the academy? Then we can be like men and become officials through the imperial examination?"

Lou Rongrong smiled and said:

"In the early morning of tomorrow, you should be able to see the notices plastered all over the capital. His Majesty ordered that all the prefectures in Daqing set up women's academies for women to study. The new imperial examination will be opened this year, and the provincial examination will be reset this year to record A man of talent."

"Although we can't directly take the provincial examination, if we have solid homework and good writing, we can also start to take the county examination and government examination this year to pass the examination. However, women are different from men after all, and it may take some time , to adjust specific entries."

The girl stared at her blankly, not knowing how to react for a moment.

Her family had promised her to a rich man in a neighboring village, and received a dowry of ten taels of silver, but the rich man was over 50 years old and married her just to be a concubine.

Lou Rongrong looked at her tenderly:

"Now you can go home and tell your parents that you can study and become an official like men, and you are one of the few women in the world who have studied. It is very likely that you will find an official position in the future. Ten taels of silver is not enough to marry a future lady."

The girl looked at her, and in the blink of an eye, the tears that filled her eyes immediately flowed down.
