"The world will soon descend into chaos, so what use will it be to obtain the highest academic honors?"
These words were certainly not something Luo Yong could say himself; rather, Xu Rurong had written them down at the county government office and made him memorize them word by word.
As expected, after Luo Yong recited those few sentences, Zhang Xiucai opposite him was moved.
“You’re right. Things are really chaotic in all the states lately, and the capital isn’t peaceful either. So what if you pass the exam?” Zhang Xiucai sighed.
He was well-informed and naturally knew very well that the bandits were not dealt with by the followers of the Mountain Goddess.
Those bandits had already organized a force of five or six hundred men, and they were all vicious and ruthless bandits. They had slaughtered several villages in the county magistrate's area. How could they have been so easily dealt with without absolute strength?
Since that's the case, why not join the Mountain God Academy? Perhaps he can receive the protection of the Mountain Goddess and safely get through this chaotic world.
The first scholar Luo Yong invited accepted, and he was overjoyed.
Luo Yong then visited other people's homes, among whom were scholars and students. Upon hearing his invitation, they all fell into deep thought.
"Zhang Xiucai and Li Tongsheng have already joined. If you want to sign up, you'd better hurry, there are only a few spots left!"
Luo Yong glanced at the note secretly and then sternly addressed the group.
Sure enough, when they heard that there were only a few spots left, several hesitant scholars and students nodded.
Since Scholar Zhang has already joined, it means that this Mountain God Academy is not bad, at least the reward is very tempting to them!
Recently, many people in Guangming have been working for the county magistrate. They are provided with three meals a day and even receive ten copper coins. Every two months, they also receive cotton-padded clothes!
Such a good job is tempting even for some penniless students. Now, by joining the Mountain God Academy, they can not only bring their children to eat there and apply for cotton-padded clothes for the whole family, but also earn one or two taels of silver every month. It's really hard to refuse!
It wasn't until Luo Yong had visited all the households in the alley that he discovered most of the scholars had agreed.
He was overjoyed. He had completed the task in just one hour, and the Mountain God Academy would soon be open!
When passing by the courtyard rented by the Lin family, Luo Yong didn't even have anyone knock on the door; instead, he simply walked past it.
Little did he know, Lin Daqiang was waiting for him in the courtyard.
