Tu Jiaojiao donated four thousand taels, Xie Rou and Xie Ying each donated two thousand taels, and Luo Ziling also donated two thousand taels.
Such a generous gesture really shocked the wealthy families in Suzhou. How could they dare to be stingy?
So they donated generously.
Jiang Er and Feng Xinyi also set up fundraising points respectively and had large billboards made with the identities and amounts of the donors directly written on them. Not only were they displayed publicly, but they also had people beat gongs and recite them.
This is true even if a beggar donates a penny.
Such a high-profile publicity method really opened the eyes of the people of Gusu!
Many people even donated money just to have their names appear on the billboard and enjoy this rare honor.
The wealthy families, however, were very worried.
After what Jiang Er and Feng Xinyi did, how could they dare to be stingy?
If they donate too little and are outdone by those who are not as good as them, their entire family will be embarrassed!
But if they really have to spend too much money, they are reluctant to do so.
So some wealthy families held a private meeting to agree on the amount of investment in order to put an end to comparisons.
Unfortunately, there are always some people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to curry favor with Jiang Er, Luo Zheng and Situ Yuan.
Therefore, the fundraising point always received large donations, which caused the people to talk about it and made several prominent families in Gusu secretly resentful.
Xie Xiu and Jiang Er don't care what these people think.
As long as they have the money, build the school and operate it well, they will have done a great job.
However, building a school requires more than just money; you also need teachers and students.
If there are no famous teachers willing to teach and no outstanding students, no matter how good they build the school, it will only become a laughing stock.
So when the news that Jiang Er and his team were going to build a school came out, many local teachers in Gusu became interested and waited for Jiang Er to poach them with high salaries.
The eldest master of the Cao family even specifically told his younger brother Cao Xuehai: "With your reputation, they will definitely invite you to teach. This is an opportunity for our Cao family!"
Although Cao Xuehai was somewhat tempted, he shook his head after careful consideration. "No, Qingyun Academy is great. I've been here for many years. How could I abandon it just for a tiny profit? I'd be a worthless person."
Master Cao laughed coldly and said, "I think Xie Xiu is quite ambitious. If he really builds an academy, he will have made great achievements in politics, but he will have taken advantage of it!"
When Cao Xuehai thought of Xie Xiu, his face darkened.
Xie Xiu passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar at the age of 28, and he was also one of the top three scholars. He was a man of great knowledge and talent.
He had read Xie Xiu's article and found it to be very well written. Even he could not find any mistakes in it.
However, this man had been working as a compiler in the Hanlin Academy for less than half a year when he was promoted to the governor of Suzhou. This was a bit too fast.
Emperor Taihe clearly favored Xie Xiu and intended to promote him.
Perhaps Concubine Jiang was also responsible for this.
The woman was arrogant and domineering, and was extremely favored by Emperor Taihe.
Now that she has the only prince, who else in the harem can be her rival?
This time the Jiang family paid for the construction of the academy. I'm afraid that once the academy is completed, Emperor Taihe will be eager to make that woman the empress.
Cao Xuehai's face was gloomy.
He did not like Concubine Jiang, nor did he like Emperor Taihe who doted on Concubine Jiang.
Such a tyrant is not worthy of his loyalty at all!
Xie Xiu was talented, but he aided the evildoers and was obviously a villain who fawned on the powerful.
What's more, this person doesn't recognize his biological father and grandparents, and even ignores his own brother who is from the same mother!
How is such a cruel, heartless, unfilial and unkind person different from a jackal?
He disdains to associate with such people, and it is even more impossible for him to leave Qingyun Academy to help the Demon Concubine become famous!
Not only him, but all the famous teachers in Gusu would not go.
He wanted to see, without famous teachers, what good students could they recruit even if they built this academy?
