Chapter 509 Cao Cao Wants to Run an Academy

When Zhang Yu arrived at the academy, he saw people inside and outside the academy.

In addition to the limited number of people in the classroom, the library is also crowded, and many students can only stay outside the college. They borrowed books to read outside.

Or many students wait for their friends who go in to bring them notes and let them study.

"Haha, so many 'overseas students' are all talents in the world, and some of them can be used by me. It won't be long before I have no shortage of talents." Zhang Yu became terrified when he saw the situation in the academy.

He was unable to watch a few big shots debate because there were too many people and they were all unavailable.

Zhang Yu came back after turning around, because there was nothing for him to do.

After Zhang Yu came back from a circle, he asked people to prepare for the expansion of the academy, which must accommodate more people.

At this time, some of the representatives of the major princes had already returned to their own territory after their investigation.

As soon as Cheng Yu went back, before Feng Chen left, he followed Cao Ren and others to meet Cao Cao in a hurry.

Cao Cao also waited for a long time.

"Thank you for your hard work, please sit down quickly." Cao Cao came out to greet them in person, and let them sit down and rest after welcoming them in.

After everyone sat down and breathed a sigh of relief, Cao Cao said: "I have already learned about Jiangdong's affairs through your letters. I didn't expect this Zhang Yu to be so difficult."

Cheng Yu said: "My lord, this Zhang Yu is not only not simple, this trick immediately attracted the world's talents to use for him, and his ability to make money can no longer be underestimated. Zhang Yu wants money and people. We It has to be taken seriously.”

Cao Ren went on to say: "Master, if this Jiangdong can manufacture weapons on a large scale, Zhang Yu still needs as many soldiers and horses as there are soldiers and horses, but Zhang Yu seems to prefer to be a rich man and has no intention of invading other places, otherwise Yangzhou Inside, who is his opponent."

"I invite everyone to come here today to study some of Zhang Yu's policies. Intuitively speaking, and from the few contacts I have had with him, Zhang Yu is definitely not the kind of person who gets by. He has huge ambitions. It's still far away, but we have already paid enough attention to it." Cao Cao said.

Cheng Yu said: "My lord, Zhang Yu can be said to be far-sighted. According to the speculation of his subordinates, Zhang Yu has not expanded externally. I am afraid that what is restricted is the talents. If there are not enough talents, it will be a trouble for him to win a place. But now Jiangdong Academy can already By absorbing a large number of talents, I am afraid he can solve the talent problem in a short period of time.”

Cao Cao pondered for a while and said, "Can we, like Zhang Yu, build an academy and recruit students for our use?"

Several people were silent for a while and said: "Master, of course, but the effect may be limited. At least we can't absorb foreign students, we can only train our own students, and the scale cannot be as large as Zhang Yu."

Zhang Yu’s Jiangdong Academy had more than 1000 students studying there at the same time before there were large-scale foreign students.

However, in some famous academies today, there are at most dozens of people studying together, which is quite a big gap.

"To do it, we must try it first, otherwise we will never be able to do it. Even if we provide us with a few or dozens of talents every year, it is worth investing in." Cao Cao said.

Cheng Yu had studied Jiangdong's situation in depth, and he said, "My lord, I'm afraid it's not that simple. According to my subordinates, Zhang Yu has set up county schools in many counties, and Jiangdong is called a junior college. Each college has hundreds of children. They are studying, and some children who are good at studying are recruited by Zhang Yu and enter the higher education institute, that is, Jiangdong College to continue their studies."

"In this way, Zhang Yu's education has become a system. Even if there are no foreign talents, he can train a lot of talents every year. His subordinates have a preliminary understanding that there are tens of thousands of children studying in elementary schools, and they enter Jiangdong Academy every day. There are hundreds of people studying, and the scale is still expanding."

Cao Cao was silent after hearing this. In this way, Zhang Yu had been working hard for several years and established a talent strategy early.

"Oh, no wonder Zhang Yu dares to offend all the aristocratic families, occupy a place, and destroy all the disobedient aristocratic families. With his own talents, Zhang Yu no longer has a place to be controlled by others." Cao Cao sighed after being silent for a while.

However, Cao Cao decided to establish his own academy.

"Although it's late, we also want to build our own academy and train our own talents. Do you have any suggestions?" Cao Cao said.

Cao Ren said: "Mengde, to establish an academy, we only need books and teachers. Let's invite some old gentlemen to come out and recruit a group of students. As long as we promise that after completing their studies, they can serve in the government, I believe it will not be difficult to recruit students."

Cheng Yu waved his hand and said: "It's not that simple. Books are easy to buy, but you have to go to Jiangdong to buy them. Only books from Jiangdong can allow us to build a huge library. Although there are hundreds of books available for purchase on the market, this Far from enough, many books are only available in Jiangdong."

Cheng Yu knew that Zhang Yu's education system was not that simple, as long as there were students, teachers and books.

Jiangdong Academy also has many disciplines and talents that are not available in other places.

Cheng Yu made a statement to Cao Cao again. Cao Cao was silent for a while and then said: "It seems that investing in education is not something that can be done easily. Based on this calculation, wouldn't Zhang Yu have to invest tens of millions of dollars every year? And more.”

After thinking for a while, he said: "Zhongde, I have to trouble you in a few days. I am going to Jiangdong again. Our academy must be started."

Cao Cao was a decisive person and could not establish a system as complete as Jiangdong's, but as long as he took the first step, he could gradually improve it.

Cao Cao asked Cheng Yu to go to Jiangdong again. In addition to discussing with Zhang Yu to buy books, he also had to learn the entire operating system of the academy.

There are many things that Cheng Yu can't understand deeply. Zhang Yu's entire system has been in operation for many years, so there must be a lot to learn.

At the same time Cao Cao said: "Let's select another group of family children to study at Jiangdong Academy, say hello to Zhang Yu, and I will write him a letter. I believe it will be all right."

If you want to learn, you must learn thoroughly, not just learn the appearance.

Cao Cao is very different from others. One is to be decisive in doing things, and the other is to value talents.

Seeing Zhang Yu recruiting so many talents at once, he immediately became jealous.

At the same time, he also saw the benefits of Zhang Yu doing so.

Historically, among the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao was the only one who used poor families on a large scale. This was met with a lot of resistance from the aristocratic family, but in the end Cao Cao still pushed it hard and appointed talents in an eclectic manner.

Now that he saw that Zhang Yu had such a good model, he naturally wanted to learn from it.
