A few days later, Mr. Sun Jianai indeed sent someone to deliver inscriptions, each of which was one foot square. Sun Yuanqi was overjoyed and quickly arranged for someone to carve the name of the school. In this way, the school's "eight" character was finally written. As for that "restraint", it is the teacher issue that Sun Yuanqi is most scratching his head about.
Sun Yuanqi knew that in the newly built school, he was only suitable to be a lecturer, and being a professor would be condescending. Be a principal? Those were entirely made of sorghum stalks¡ªnot that material at all. In Sun Yuanqi's mind, the best candidate for principal should be the famous educator Mr. Cai Yuanpei. But I don¡¯t know where Mr. Cai is now. A few days ago, Shi Yunyu came to visit, and during the conversation, I learned that just a few days ago, Cai Yuanpei became the chief teacher of the special class of Nanyang Public School. When Sun Yuanqi found out, his heart was filled with regret! When Shi Yunyu returned to Shanghai, Sun Yuanqi asked him to bring a letter to Cai Yuanpei for him. The solicitation in the letter was quite explicit! I don¡¯t know if Cai Yuanpei has changed his mind about his employer.
The boss absolutely means what he says! In addition to the inscriptions, there were also several unsealed letters sent, one of which was addressed to me, so I opened it and read it. I saw it read:
My grandson Baixi, the plaque I asked you to inscribe is now written. I am not good at writing big characters. Due to my old age, I struggle to grasp the pen. The charm is gone and the characters are scattered. If it's not suitable, don't use it. I also studied the classics and history of the school, and I thought about it for a few days. Among the great Confucian scholars in the country today, we should commend Yu Quyuan of the Qing Dynasty, Renqiu of Xiangyin, and Yiwu of Changsha. Qu Yuan is eighty years old and lives in Suzhou, fearing that he is unwilling to move. In Renqiu, Zeng Wenzhenggong called him a deceitful person, but he had always had a great reputation and had thousands of books in his chest. Yiwu has the essence of knowledge, and now he is at home. He is a person who loves to educate talents. It is not easy to get to these three people, but you can send me the letter I have drafted, just in case. If you can come, it will be the glory of the school and a good teacher for all students. Even if you can't get it, you still have the intention of seeking virtuous people and worshiping saints. Among the middle-aged generation, Ruian's Sun Zhongrong is the most outstanding. He is well-educated and well-educated. If you express your respect, you can come. Shanhua Pilumen also had knowledge, while Jingyan and Liao Jiping had many new theories. Others, such as Ke Shaoyan, Wu Rulun, Ye Dehui, Miao Quansun, Cui Shi, Yan Fu, Chen Yan, Yang Shoujing and Shen Zengzhi, were all chosen at the moment. You can choose it yourself. The word Zu Nai.
As a science student, Sun Yuanqi didn¡¯t know any of these people except for some impressions of Yan Fu¡¯s translation of Tianyan Lun. But if it can be recommended solemnly as a bachelor and the Minister of Etiquette, then it must not be much different, right?
Sun Yuanqi still has thirty to forty thousand US dollars on hand, which can be converted into more than forty thousand taels of silver. After excluding daily expenses and student scholarships, plus the American architectural design firm is coming soon, it is estimated that he will even have ten thousand taels on hand by the end of the year. There is no money left. Ten thousand taels of silver would be enough to feed and drink Sun Yuanqi alone for ten or twenty years; but for a huge school, it might only be enough for one or two months.
Gritting your teeth, you can¡¯t bear to let your child catch the wolf, and you can¡¯t bear to have your wife unable to catch the gangster! It seems that you can't hire talented people if you don't want to spend money. So when I wrote to these old gentlemen, I offered huge bonuses based on the grades recommended by them: the best Yu Quyuan of Deqing, Wang Renqiu of Xiangyin, and Wang Yiwu of Changsha would each receive a salary of 4,000 taels per year as long as they came to teach; Ruian Sun Zhongrong, three thousand taels per year; Shanhua Pi Lumen and Jingyan Liao Jiping, two thousand five hundred taels per year; Ke Shaobin, Wu Rulun, Ye Dehui, Miao Quansun, Cui Shi, Yan Fu, Chen Yan, Yang Shoujing, Shen Zengzhi, two thousand taels per year . I remember that back then, as a returnee from a prestigious university and the nephew of a bachelor of Sun University, the Capital University only offered an annual salary of 600 taels. This time, I can definitely call it a big investment. If all these people come, the school will be in debt before the Chinese New Year!
Sun Yuanqi sent out the admission list and recruitment letters, and returned to the outside of the city. Stay in the new campus every day, supervise the construction, compile teaching materials, and then wait for the start of school. He doesn't even care about the "Xinchou Treaty" signed between China and the Eight-Nation Allied Forces - even if he cares, there is nothing he can do, so he might as well save his time and do something else.
On this day, Sun Yuanqi was urging the workers to speed up the progress at the construction site, when he saw Lao Zheng running in panting on his horse. Sun Yuanqi probably was looking for him, so he put the matter aside and went to greet him. But I saw Lao Zheng holding a telegraph newspaper in his hand, which was written in English: "We will arrive at Beijing Railway Station on September 14th, please pick us up."
Who is calling? The lower corner of the person who wrote the letter was densely covered with dirt and was soaked in Old Zheng's sweat. After careful inspection for a long time, no clue could be found. No matter, it must be someone from an American architectural design office. I just don¡¯t know when the 14th will be, so I might have to spend a day at the train station.
Think about it, today is September 11th. If Americans come, there will be a place to stay, and corresponding hygiene products and bedding must be prepared in advance. At the moment, we arranged for a few students and Lao Zheng to go back to the city first to deal with these trivial matters. I will take a few students back to the city tomorrow to prepare for the guests.Old Zheng timidly waited for him by the roadside.
"Old Zheng, what's the matter?" Sun Yuanqi asked.
"Pleaseplease ask sir, thesemistresses¡ª¡ª"
"Master - mother -?" Sun Yuanqi was so depressed that he almost spit out a mouthful of blood: I am more unjust than the goose of the Dou family! I, I have never had any bad intentions towards these foreign girls! "Remember, call them miss from now on!"
"Sister?" Lao Zhao's eyes looked a little strange.
Following Lao Zhao¡¯s eyes, he slowly looked over and realized that he was still holding the hands of Lilith and Nina. Immediately, he quickly shook them off and began to introduce them one by one, pointing at Vera: "This is the eldest lady."
Pointing to Elena: "This is the second young lady."
??Similarly, Lilith is the third lady; Nina is the fourth lady.
"Sir, these four ladies, should we arrange accommodation first or eat first?" Lao Zheng asked, not knowing whether he had remembered the sizes of these four people. I guess in his eyes, all four foreign girls are equally ugly, so how can he tell the difference?
Sun Yuanqi decided to ask these ladies for their opinions first: "Dear ladies, welcome to my home in Beijing. Now there are two choices before you: a, eat first; b, rest and wash up first. Please answer!"
Nina asked first, "Mr. Johnson, are all your slaves in the yard?"
"No, many of them are my students." Sun Yuanqi replied casually, "Nina, you have the right to vote now, hurry up and exercise your rights!"
"Is this middle-aged man your student now?" Nina, a little lolita, is still a curious baby.
"If you fail to make the right choice twice, it will be deemed as an automatic abstention. Dear Nina, this is your own precious opportunity to give up the opportunity to exercise your rights. Next, Lilith?" Sun Yuanqi couldn't bear the pain of killing this cute little loli, and finally replied, "You may consider him my servant."
Finally, it was Lilith¡¯s turn to answer. For fear of losing the opportunity, she immediately gave the answer: "I choose b. I will take a rest and wash up first."
Nina flattened her mouth and said unwillingly: "If I choose, I will choose B."
Sun Yuanqi ignored her and continued to ask: "What about Elena and Vera?"
"b"
"b."
"Okay. The voting result is: b, take a rest and wash up first." Sun Yuanqi motioned to Lao Zheng to lead everyone to the accommodation first. After walking a few steps and running around, Sun Yuanqi, who was very hungry, felt a little strange, "Have you already had lunch on the train?"
"No!" replied in unison.
After a while, I saw these girls combing their hair and washing their faces in front of the mirror, or hiding in the room to change clothes. Sun Yuanqi finally understood: Even in the early twentieth century, women put clothing first.
In the afternoon, Sun Yuanqi arranged for O&C engineers and teachers from Yale, MIT, and McGill to take a day off. Let¡¯s go to the new campus together the day after tomorrow. As for the four girls, they stayed in the study and wrote letters home to report the specific situation.
Sun Yuanqi stole a moment of leisure and was walking in the front yard, thinking about the placement of these new arrivals, when he heard a noise outside the door. On weekdays, Sun Yuanqi's yard is full of students. Although he and his neighbors don't "hear the sounds of chickens and dogs, and never interact with each other until old age," they just meet and say hello. So there was silence in front of the door. I don¡¯t know why there¡¯s so much noise today?
Just as he was about to go out to take a look, he saw Lao Zheng hurriedly coming in from the door. Sun Yuanqi asked: "Old Zheng, what's the matter? There's so much noise outside the door?"
Lao Zheng had a wry smile on his face: "Sir, aren't there ten or twenty foreigners who have come to the yard? The neighbors are a little uneasy"
Sun Yuanqi was confused: "There are foreigners coming to our yard, what are they doing? I didn't provoke them!"
"Isn't this just for the foreigners who come to Beijing to make trouble" Lao Zheng said with a bitter look on his face, "The neighbors' knees are weak when they see the foreigners, for fear of causing some trouble and causing a big disaster"
Sun Yuanqi was helpless. He couldn't have a dispute between neighbors because of this matter, right? I had no choice but to compromise: "Then you go out and tell them, we will move outside the city tomorrow!"
After saying that, he waved his sleeves and entered the inner courtyard.
On September 14th, the Qing government issued an edict on the establishment of schools, saying: "In addition to the university halls already established in the capital, which should be reorganized, all academies in the provinces should be reorganized into university halls in provincial capitals, and all government offices should be directly controlled by prefectures. All have middle schools, and all states and counties have established primary schools, and many have primary schools.¡±
Within a year since then, schools have sprung up all over the country. Shandong University, Beijing University, Shanxi University, Guizhou University, Beiyang University, etc. have been restored, built, or renovated. China's higher education has seen a development trend. The first golden stage.
