赵员外愣了愣,寒门学子,寒门学子关他什么事情,他为什么要慷慨解囊？ Originally this Sir Liu today, him to contribute money, Zhao Family is indeed rich, but these money are not the gale blow, why must contribute. 原来这位刘大人今日来,是要他捐银子的,赵家的确有钱,但这些钱也不是大风刮来的,凭什么要捐出去。 The Landlord Zhao look deep place flashes through discontented, has not revealed, the smile on face actually bright, said: „Naturally wants, Zhao has also been thinking, must for some completely mental efforts- Zhao Fu, goes to accountant hundred taels of silver to come quickly!” 赵员外眼神深处闪过一丝不满,没有表露出来,脸上的笑容却更加的灿烂,说道:“当然愿意,赵某也一直想着,要为国家尽些心力-赵福,快去账房支一百两银子来！” Hundred taels of silver are not to him many, will not pay the big loss, can give this Sir Liu a confession. 一百两银子对他来说并不多,不会付出多大的损失,也能给这位刘大人一个交代。 He simply has not shifted responsibility onto others, for a money offends this County Magistrate Liu is not a wise choice, so simple decides the amount, wants to come the opposite party is not good to open the mouth again. 他根本没有推诿,为了一点钱得罪这位刘县令不是一个明智的选择,如此干脆的将数额定下来,想来对方也不好再开口。 On the County Magistrate Liu face has the smile as before, said: „The my impoverished family scholar of this Official generation of the world, first apologized to Landlord Zhao.” 刘县令脸上依旧带着笑容,说道:“本官代天下的寒门学子,先谢过赵员外了。” Landlord Zhao nods again and again: „Should, should.” 赵员外连连点头:“应该的,应该的。” The steward in Zhao Residence soon took 120 to come out, naturally had the yamen runner to help accepting. 赵府的管家很快就拿了一百两出来,自然有衙役帮着收下。 „this Official also has the matter in the body, first walked.” County Magistrate Liu and Landlord Zhao smalltalk several, then set out to say goodbye. “本官还有事在身,就先走了。”刘县令和赵员外客套了几句,便起身告辞。 Landlord Zhao sets out: „Delivers Sir Liu.” 赵员外起身:“送刘大人。” Although lost hundred taels of silver in vain, but sent off this Bodhisattva, is worth. 虽然白白损失了一百两银子,但送走了这位菩萨,还是值得的。 „If not for this Official really cannot put out so much money, is thinking actually contributes.” Two people to the mansion entrance walks, County Magistrate Liu shakes the head, said: „City south Landlord Xu, 3200 contributed a book collection pavilion for the academy, the city north chapter of storekeeper, 1200 contributed a school, feared that has the opportunity Upper House tablet, lets tight that this Official envies.” “若不是本官实在拿不出那么多银子,倒是想着多捐一些。”两人向府门口走去的时候,刘县令摇了摇头,说道:“城南的许员外,三千两为书院捐了一座藏书阁,城北的章掌柜,一千两捐了一座学堂,怕是都有机会上院碑,让本官羡慕的紧。” „Institute tablet......, may I ask the Sir, what is the institute tablet?” Had not listened he has mentioned this matter, the Landlord Zhao doubts to ask one a moment ago. “院碑……,敢问大人,什么是院碑？”刚才可没听他说起过这件事情,赵员外疑惑的问了一句。 County Magistrate Liu smiles, explained: „Must construct so many academies in each region, needs a big money, the state treasury cannot spend so much money suddenly, can only in each region fund-raising, Landlord Xu contribute the book collection pavilion, when the time comes in front of that book collection pavilion, will then set up a tablet, clear inscribing, this is who contributes, making these scholars remember that is who makes them have the book to read, whose benevolence should receive......” 刘县令笑了笑,解释道:“要在各地建那么多的书院,需要一大笔银子,国库一时间拿不出那么多钱,只能在各地募捐,许员外捐了藏书阁,到时候那藏书阁前面,便会立一块碑,明明白白的写上,这是何人所捐,让那些学子们记得是什么人让他们有书可读,应该承谁的恩情……” „In front of school that a chapter of storekeeper contributes, will set up such a tablet, as for the institute tablet, that is stands in front of the entire academy, before passing through the gate, will see, is raised by your majesty imperial brush, any to the person who the academy has contribute, all may nominate on the institute tablet, the goal is to then let the students of academy remembers, their all, is who gives.” “章掌柜所捐的学堂前面,也会立这样一块碑,至于院碑,那是立在整个书院前面的,进门之前就会看到,由陛下御笔亲提,凡是对书院有所贡献的人,皆可在院碑上提名,目的便是让书院的学生们记得,他们的一切,是谁给予的。” „Pitifully, the institute tablet only stands one time, after this time, only if there is extremely major contribution to the school, otherwise is not possible nominated......” “可惜啊,院碑只立一次,等到这次之后,除非对学院有极为重大的贡献,否则是不可能得到提名的……” Landlord Zhao hearing this, footsteps, standing on the spot. 赵员外闻言,脚步一顿,愣愣的站在原地。 This Sir Liu, may not have to say these with him a moment ago! 刚才这位刘大人,可没有和他说这些啊！ His Zhao Ritian half a lifetime doing business, making one look down upon, but he does not think generation after generation this. 他赵日天半辈子经商,让人瞧不起也就罢了,但是他不想子子孙孙都这样。 He does not want by oneself descendants forever being able to gain ground, never to straighten up the back to cultivate the behavior. 他不想让自己的子孙永远的抬不起头,永远不能挺直脊梁做人。 Therefore he spares no expense, to the son please the best mister, buy the best written records, light/only accompanied the studying children to invite four, after has not wanted to let him, can have prospects, was admitted to the academic honor, making Zhao Family get rid of merchant's the shadow of family/home...... 所以他不惜重金,给儿子请最好的先生,买最好的纸笔,光伴读书童都请了四位,还不就是想让他以后能有出息,考取功名,让赵家摆脱商人之家的阴影…… He makes these for what, not for name? 他做这些都是为了什么,还不是为了名？ Contributes the school, contributes the book collection hall, carves own name on the tablet, stands in front of the school, is that tablet your majesty imperial brush own topic? 捐学堂,捐藏书馆,把自己的名字刻在碑上,立在学院前面,那碑是陛下御笔亲题的？ From now on, but also who dares to look down upon his Zhao Ritian? 从今往后,还有谁敢看不起他赵日天？ Who dares to refuse to accept? 谁敢不服? Has the skill you also to carve the name on the tablet, lets your majesty imperial brush own topic? 有本事你们也把名字刻在碑上,让陛下御笔亲题啊？ That is the school, comes out the person from there, later has not known that will have many people to make a name for oneself, soars, by that time, perhaps these will be toward the ministers of class, occasionally will also recall when they will study young, will see that familiar name that on the institute tablet. 那可是学院啊,从那里出来的人,以后还不知道有多少人会功成名就,一飞冲天,到那个时候,或许那些位列朝班的大臣们,偶尔也会记起在他们年少求学之时,在院碑上看到的那个熟悉的名字。 Zhao Ritian. 赵日天。 Even if the people remember, to him, to Zhao Family, was enough. 哪怕有一个人记得,对他,对赵家来说,也足够了。 Not to mention these high officials still remembered many to the benevolence of past years, besides the tombstone, can carve the name on the tablet, to him, was one boasts matter for a lifetime sufficiently. 且不说那些大官心里到底对当年之恩情还记得多少,除了墓碑以外,能把名字刻在碑上,对他来说,也是一件足以吹嘘一辈子的事情。 County Magistrate Liu said a moment ago, this opportunity only this one time, crossed this village, did not have this shop. 刚才刘县令说,这个机会仅此一次,过了这个村,就没有这个店了。 Damn Landlord Xu, oneself before also had the graciousness to him in vain, such good deed, did not take itself unexpectedly, on the Landlord Zhao face appeared a angry look, but quick vanished, the smile unprecedented brightness on face, 32 steps caught up with County Magistrate Liu, saw him soon to step out of the mansion gate, hurried say/way: „Sir hold your steps!” 该死的许员外,枉自己之前还对他有恩,此等好事,居然不带上自己,赵员外脸上浮现出一丝怒色,不过很快就消失,脸上的笑容前所未有的灿烂,三两步追上刘县令,见他已经快要迈出了府门,急忙道:“大人留步!” County Magistrate Liu has looked back him, said with a smile: „, What matter does Landlord Zhao have?” 刘县令回过头看着他,笑道:“哦,赵员外还有何事？” 【Ps: Makes up 1 / 2.】 【ps:补更1/2。】
