Chapter 439 Business

Shen Yueyao felt that there was no need to be so pedantic about opening a school.

"Dean Shangguan, think about it, if everyone always stays in the academy to study, after a long time, maybe everyone will only know how to study and not know how to distinguish facts."

Scholars are passionate, but they are also easily exploited.

Because their pens can write a lot of things.

"Only by going out and gaining more experience and communicating with others can we understand more and know how to distinguish certain things."

"Besides, many people in the academy may not necessarily want to take the imperial examination to become an official!"

"Some people don't have to enter the government, but they can still understand the truth and do a lot of things through reading."

As Shen Yueyao was saying this, she suddenly thought of setting up a college.

There were too few academies and private schools in the entire Great Yan Dynasty, not to mention teachers.

The main reason is that many academies and private schools were founded by the deans themselves with money paid for out of their own pockets.

But what if someone specifically gives these teachers monthly wages?

They don't have to worry about anything, they just need to be responsible for teaching everyone to read.

Shen Yueyao felt that if she could win over the scholars of this academy, they would be able to do a lot of things after graduating from the academy.

Reading and writing can play a big role.

Shen Yueyao's eyes lit up just thinking about this.

Shangguan Bin felt that the girl in front of him was really bold.

"The young lady is indeed worthy of being a sixth-rank lady. Her thoughts and ideas are different from those of others."

An ordinary woman would never say such words.

They would not have the courage to come to the academy to find him just to ask him to give the academy some authority.

The academy was indeed originally opened by the Shangguan family and later handed over to him, and some of the rules were indeed set by him.

"I wonder what Dean Shangguan thinks?"

Shangguan Bin said: "I need to see your medical skills."

Shangguan Bin had no choice but to be selfish for once for the sake of his son.

And what Mrs. Shen said was right. Perhaps changing the rules would be good for the students of the college.

So Shangguan Bin did not reject the idea of ​​changing this rule.

Besides, he thought that a woman who could discover high-yield crops might also be able to make some changes in other areas.

I don’t know why, but Shangguan Bin had this feeling in his heart.

The current emperor is a wise ruler. Since he can confer the title of sixth-rank lady on the woman in front of him, it means that this woman is not an ordinary woman.

Since the founding of the Great Yan Dynasty, no emperor had ever directly issued an imperial edict in this way.

Many women earned their imperial decrees from their husbands or sons.

But the woman in front of him received her imperial decree because of her own contributions.

That's very different.

Shangguan Bin also wanted to see her abilities.

Shen Yueyao nodded and said, "Okay, I just happened to bring something."

"Dean Shangguan, call Young Master Ling here, prepare a separate room, and prepare some medicinal herbs."

As she spoke, Shen Yueyao quickly wrote down the medicinal herbs on the paper.

Shangguan Bin was amazed when he looked at the handwriting in his hand. It was really good handwriting!

It is not easy for a woman to master calligraphy to such a level.

Moreover, this character is not the hairpin-shaped font commonly used by women, but has a sparse and majestic style.

But at this time Shangguan Bin didn't care about anything else. He hurriedly called the manager and asked him to get the medicine.

Because of his son's health problems, the academy has a special pharmacy with various spare medicinal materials.

The medicinal materials that Shen Yueyao needed happened to be in the prescription, so he asked the steward to get them.

Then, Shangguan Bin took Shen Yueyao to a room in the backyard that he had prepared for his son. It was quiet and elegant.

He asked someone to bring his son Shangguan Kang back.

He knew that his son liked to bask in the sun near the back door of the academy.

It seemed that if he did that, he would feel like he had escaped from this place and he could go anywhere freely.

But he also knew his physical condition.

Shangguan Bin thought about all kinds of questions, but he never thought that he was poisoned by a Gu worm, and it was a Gu worm from southern Xinjiang. This was something he had never thought of.

No wonder so many doctors couldn’t find any problems.

Shangguan Bin said seriously, "Mrs. Shen, can you take a look? Is there anything else you need?"

Shen Yueyao shook her head and said, “No, this is fine.”

After a while, the young man came in.

When he saw Shen Yueyao, his eyes lit up, "It's you!"

Shangguan Kang was originally feeling a little weak and didn't want to move. Perhaps he would feel too weak to move. But after drinking the milk tea and snacks given by the girl in front of him, he felt full of strength.

Shangguan Kang turned to look at Shangguan Bin and said, "Dad, no matter what she wants, you have to help her. The milk tea and snacks she just gave me are delicious. I feel stronger after eating them. Isn't that amazing?"

Shen Yueyao thought for a moment and said, “My milk tea is made with the best mountain spring water and nutritious milk, so drinking it is good for your health.”

Shangguan Kang didn't know why, but looking at the girl in front of him, he felt an involuntary sense of closeness and intimacy in his heart.

Shangguan Bin was stunned when he heard this.

His son had never said such a thing to him.

He always seems to have no desires.

It was as if he had no ties to the world due to his health.

Even his expression towards his father was indifferent.

But he didn't expect that because of the girl in front of him, he would say such words to him, and there was a look of joy between his eyebrows.

Shangguan Bin was so excited.

Shangguan Bin looked at his son's expression without blinking, afraid that he had seen it wrong.

He choked up slightly and said, "You...you like to eat those cakes. Didn't Dad have someone bring them back for you before? Didn't you dislike them?"

Shangguan Kang curled his lips and said, "That's different. Things are different. Those cakes are so unpalatable. The cakes she gave me are especially delicious, and the milk tea is especially good. I want to go to that shop at the foot of the mountain in the future."

When Shangguan Kang was talking to the girl in front of him, he learned that she opened a milk tea and pastry shop at the foot of the mountain, and he wanted to go there often.

But he didn't know if his body was strong enough to make it down the mountain.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Kang's bright eyes dimmed, which made people feel distressed.

Shangguan Bin wanted to agree to Shangguan Kang immediately, but he knew Shangguan Kang's physical condition best.

Shangguan Bin felt very uncomfortable and felt like he couldn't breathe all of a sudden.

But he was very curious, is the food really that delicious?

The pastries he asked people to buy were from the most famous pastry shop in the inner city of Beijing. Every day, people had to queue up for a long time at the door to buy them.

Moreover, they are all century-old shops. The pastries are made fresh every day, and new pastries are launched from time to time.

The noble families in the capital all like to buy cakes there.

Shangguan Bin was also a little curious about what it was that made people think the food tasted better than the one in that restaurant.

Then I thought about what Mrs. Shen said, and I always felt that Mrs. Shen seemed to be very confident in what she did.

Yes, Shangguan Bin only realized at this time that this Mrs. Shen had always been shining with confidence.

From the moment she first came to the academy to the moment she talked to him, and everything that happened afterwards, she was the one who took the lead from beginning to end.

Confident people naturally have the confidence.

But it is unknown whether her confidence comes from the title of Sixth Rank Lady, the things she has made, or her medical skills.

But Shangguan Bin realized that this woman was not simple.

He knows his own son's character best.

It's good enough if he doesn't bother others. There is no one he is willing to get close to and trust, let alone speak up for him.

But Shangguan Bin also knew that he would not treat this person like this for no reason, there must be a reason.

Or maybe it was because the girl in front of him really had some extraordinary qualities.

Shen Yueyao also had a good impression of this young man.

Shen Yueyao smiled and said: "If you want to drink milk tea or eat dessert in the future, even if you can't go down the mountain, I can have someone bring it up."

In fact, just for a moment, Shen Yueyao had another idea in her mind.

That is whether the milk tea dessert shop can provide takeaway service.

In this era, there is naturally no computer, Internet or mobile phone to place orders.

But we can arrange special people to go to the academy or go to a certain street to count what milk tea and desserts people drink and eat, and then arrange people to deliver them.

The shops in the inner city must be very busy and have no time to care about what's happening outside.

But we can arrange takeout specifically at Zhuangzi's place.

We have a special group of people in the kitchen preparing desserts and milk tea for outside.

This way, the businesses are independent of each other and can expand sales.

In this case, three stores in Beijing will be enough. As the main business is diverse, there is no need to open more stores.

Moreover, the shops in Zhuangzi are several times larger than those in the inner city.

Thinking of this, Shen Yueyao's eyes lit up, and she felt that she could think about it carefully and make some arrangements.

You can start by ordering takeout from the college.

In this way, when students are busy, they don’t have to go down the mountain at noon, and someone will naturally bring things up.
