The game starts with escaping from the famine and flipping the table
Chapter 414 Xianyu Family (1)
Jizhou is known as the "granary of the world". This vast land is fertile and rich, and all kinds of crops grow well, with bumper harvests every year.
The Xianyu family has been passed down for generations, with a profound heritage and many talented people. They not only have outstanding achievements in the economic field, but also pay more attention to spiritual pursuits and social responsibilities.
The Xianyu family won wide respect for their noble character and erudition, and established a high prestige in Jizhou.
The Xianyu family has always believed in the truth that "knowledge changes destiny" and regards it as one of the family creeds. Because of this, they pay great attention to cultural and educational undertakings and invest a lot of resources in it.
In order to provide more people with educational opportunities and promote the development of this land in a better direction, the Xianyu family generously donated money to establish colleges - not only built many large-scale academies and schools with complete facilities; but also spared no expense to hire those highly respected, knowledgeable and talented people to serve as teachers to give lectures!
In this way, tenants under the Xianyu family and many children of ordinary people will also have the opportunity to enjoy high-quality, comprehensive and systematic educational resources.
Of course, the Xianyu family gave special preferential treatment to their own tenants: anyone who was six years old or older could go to school for a full year and learn basic knowledge and skills such as basic characters, handwriting, reading comprehension, arithmetic, etc. from the teacher!
The Xianyu family is here to screen and train talents, but they are not the ones who take advantage of them, so they naturally have restrictions and screening on these students.
All children had the opportunity to go to school for free. Of course, this initial stage only lasted for a short period of time.
One year later, the school will enter the crucial "assessment" phase.
Survival of the fittest, no one complains.
Only those who successfully pass this rigorous test will be given the opportunity to continue with free learning.
Of course, this isn't permanent.
Be prepared for danger in times of peace.
There will be an assessment every year in the future. This is also to prevent students from being careless and to ensure that every student can always maintain the best condition and strive to improve their level.
In addition to the daily teaching of the teachers, the Xianyu family also pays great attention to cultivating students' practical skills and cultivating their horizons, so as to prevent them from becoming nerds or frogs in the well who are blindly arrogant.
To this end, the Xianyu family actively planned various travel activities, encouraging students to go out of school and visit nearby well-known colleges and universities or the schools of famous families, so that they can better experience the customs and practices of different regions through mutual exchanges, learn from the strengths of all parties and promote common growth and progress. This encourages young people to study hard and constantly explore innovative ideas.
After going through layers of screening at Xianyu Academy, the poor students who finally passed the imperial examinations were all grateful to the Xianyu family.
Those who failed to make it to the imperial examinations, the Xianyu family was a large family with great wealth, and the demand for shopkeepers and clerks from all over the country was still particularly large. Otherwise, how could we say that the head of the Xianyu family had foresight. The shopkeepers and clerks trained in this way were loyal to the Xianyu family and would fight for them until their death.
Of course, the Xianyu family had no intention of keeping these talents confined to the Xianyu family. Instead, they gave them a larger and broader space to display their talents.
With the unremitting efforts of the Xianyu family, the overall cultural atmosphere of Jizhou has become increasingly strong, and a large number of outstanding talents have been cultivated. Some of these people serve as officials to benefit the people, some engage in business to promote economic prosperity, and some focus on learning and write books to pass on to future generations...
In short, while these people were fulfilling their ambitions, they also gave back to the Xianyu family in their own way, which made the Xianyu family more famous and became a good story passed down by the world.
Don't underestimate such a reputation. Many knowledgeable people have come forward to join the Xianyu family.
It was obviously unrealistic for Prince Ning Yuwen Tai to stir up trouble in the Xianyu family.
Fortunately, although King Ning was greedy, he was not that stupid. He was just extremely extreme and stubborn.
Since arriving at his fiefdom, Prince Ning has shown his desire for power without reservation. What's more, he will stop at nothing to achieve his goal, just to eventually ascend to the supreme throne.
Yuwen Tai knew very well that if he wanted to achieve his ambitions, he would have to possess extraordinary strength and solid and reliable backing.
Therefore, Ning Wang Yuwentai used a series of combined punches and relied on many strategies to consolidate his position:
First, he humbled himself and flattered the powerful families and forces that held sway over the government, such as the Xianyu family, and expressed his willingness to form an alliance with them.
Second, he recruited all kinds of talents, regardless of their family background or ability. As for character? Haha! Which strategist or general with good character would rebel?
Third, he secretly bribed all the middle and even small families who were willing to be attached to him, and promised them various "titles" to make these people become his loyal supporters. After all, the merit of following the dragon is extremely tempting.
Not everyone can clearly see the dangers lurking behind the interests.
Therefore, there were too many people who were confused. It also rapidly expanded the power of King Ning, and he was no longer alone.
In addition, Ning Wang Yuwentai used various means to make money crazily - increasing taxes to exploit the common people, forcing merchants with no background and unwilling to serve to hand over large sums of money...
These actions enabled King Ning to accumulate huge wealth in a short period of time, but also made the local people suffer.
When facing those who are powerful, Yuwen Tai behaves in a fawning and servile manner; when he encounters people or forces weaker than himself, he immediately changes his face and becomes cruel, brutal and merciless.
Ning Wang has two faces. It can be said that in this fiefdom, Ning Wang Yuwentai is the best interpretation of the four words "bully the weak and fear the strong".
The Xianyu family looked at what King Ning had done and felt sorry for the common people. But for no reason, they could not confront King Ning directly, so they could only protect their own people first.
The closeness of family members and relatives must be clearly distinguished.
Now that they have received the notice from the Su family, the Xianyu family naturally understands that the current situation is more serious. Before, the worst that could happen was that they would just put up with humiliation for a while and wait until Prince Ning returned to the capital. But now, I am afraid that Prince Ning will start to target the Xianyu family.
After all, how can I allow others to snore next to my bed?
They had to prepare for evacuation early. The Xianyu family began to quietly send all their direct descendants to the new city of Huzhou.
With the Su family here, it is the safest place.
However, the Su family’s background is really terrifying!
The ten great families all have both open and covert connections in Kyoto, but the Su family was the first to receive the news, which makes them not to be underestimated.
As expected, just as the Xianyu family had made arrangements, news came through their own information network, which was identical to the news from the Su family. However, the next day, Prince Ning announced that he had declared himself king.
The head of the Xianyu family couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they had made preparations in advance, so they were not caught off guard by King Ning.
Fortunately, the Su family gave them the Qiankun Gourd, which allowed them to collect all the transferable wealth into it and hand it over to their direct descendants.
