In fact, by the time Jia Huan returned from the estate outside the city, the number of students in the clan school had already successfully surpassed thirty.
I've heard that the number of students at the ethnic minority school will increase further after the Lunar New Year!
Not only the children of the Jia family, but also many children from relatives' families wanted to come and study here!
This is the advantage of a clan school producing two students who pass the preliminary examinations in one go. It gives people more confidence in its educational standards, so there is no need to worry about the source of students. On the contrary, the number of students from other clans must be strictly limited.
"You did a great job at the clan school!"
In the main study in the front courtyard of the Rong Mansion, Master Zheng Er, with a smile on his face, praised Jia Huan.
"This is what I should do!"
Jia Huan chuckled lightly and said leisurely, "The clan school is just a place to cultivate talents. It's just fulfilling our duty, nothing special!"
With so many resources poured into it every year, how disappointing would it be if we didn't see any ripples at all?
This time, with the help of Jia Rui and Qin Zhong, two newly promoted students, to share the attention, no one paid much attention to Jia Huan's changes, which was definitely a good thing.
At this time, he was only slightly shorter than Cong-ge, who had been practicing martial arts for more than two years.
But her overall physical condition is definitely better than Cong Ge'er's, that's for sure.
Just standing there, he exudes a healthy and robust aura, a stark contrast to when he first transmigrated here.
In particular, the confidence he exudes is quite infectious.
Sure enough, when Master Zheng spoke to him, he seemed much more confident: "Your merit is your merit, there's no need to be too modest!"
Although he is slow to react to external events, he is not really stupid.
Although Master Zheng had not witnessed the state of the clan school firsthand, he knew from Jia Huan's detailed account that the situation was far from optimistic.
The main problem was that Uncle Dai Ru firmly held onto the clan school, but as he got older, he became lax, and coupled with his own poor teaching skills, the clan school was completely abandoned.
After much effort, Jia Huan managed to get the clan school back on track!
Spending a little more money to support Uncle Dai Ru is not a big deal, the main problem is that we didn't understand the ins and outs of this before, and we wasted so much time.
Furthermore, Jia Huan's most brilliant move was to take away the scholar Xiang Gongli, a fellow who was interested in teaching and educating people, and send him to the clan school to become a teacher.
These scholars, though only xiucai (a degree in the imperial examination system), were seasoned veterans with solid foundations.
At least teaching the children in the clan school is no problem at all.
Therefore, Master Zheng believed that Jia Huan deserved the most credit for the sudden outbreak of the clan school.
However, it's really not good to spread this fact to the outside world.
Whether the old lady likes it or not, outsiders would probably laugh their heads off.
It's utterly shameful that the prestigious Jia family school has to rely on a child to get on the right track.
"It's not that I'm being modest!"
Jia Huan said with a smile, "If it weren't for the help of the scholar in the main study, it would be quite difficult for the clan school to achieve any results!"
That's just how messed up the world is!
Even top-tier martial arts families like the Jia family struggle to find truly talented and dedicated scholars who are willing to focus on teaching and nurturing students.
Those talented scholars would rather be an unknown lecturer in an academy than become the core teacher of a clan school established by a top-ranking military family.
At most, he could be hired by wealthy and powerful families to become a tutor for their direct descendants!
On one hand, the academy has a great surplus of teachers, while on the other hand, the Jia family school is quite lacking in capable teachers. That's just how strange things are.
If Jia Huan hadn't intervened in time, the Jia family's academic tradition would have had a very difficult time gaining prominence.
The eyes of figures like Master Zheng Er, and the former clan head Jia Zhen, were mostly focused on those prestigious scholars who had passed the imperial examinations, or even those who had passed the highest level of the imperial examinations. It was as if not inviting them would be unworthy of the status of the Jia family school.
In fact, given the previous state of the clan school, any senior scholar with solid foundations would have been sufficient.
Just like Jia Rui, his skills are already quite solid, much better than Qin Zhong's.
However, due to the lack of proper guidance and his grandfather Jia Dairu's special status in the clan school, he became a cunning and treacherous person who oppressed and exploited students.
However, after Jia Huan reorganized the clan school, and with the careful guidance of a senior scholar with sufficient ability, his solid foundation demonstrated his strength. After more than two years of accumulation, he successfully passed the preliminary examination and became a student.
In fact, according to the clan school teacher in private, with Jia Rui's current level of knowledge, he was fully capable of participating in the county-level imperial examination, and if he was lucky, he could easily be at the bottom.
Of course, the senior scholars who were also teachers also said that if Jia Rui's will was not strong enough, he should not try to take the imperial examination, as it could easily have a negative impact on his self-confidence.
Isn't it just that we're afraid he won't pass the exam, and that the setback will affect his confidence?
Master Zheng was very pleased with Jia Huan's humility and said with satisfaction, "It's good that you know what you're doing!"
"What are your thoughts on the future development of clan studies?"
"I think the number of students in the clan school is quite large now, so we can divide them into classes!"
"Class division? Like those academies?"
"exactly!"
Jia Huan chuckled and said, "Don't think that only modern times have class divisions. Ancient academies have been doing this for many years, and they have long clearly distinguished between regular classes and elite classes."
Seeing that the Second Master Zheng was puzzled, he revealed his thoughts.
The clan school can now be divided into classes for first-year students, senior students, and junior students.
If we have even more students next year, we can add a middle class!
In any case, class assignment can be done in a completely open and transparent manner, based on the students' learning progress.
You will be placed in a class based on your level, which not only allows you to continue small-class elite teaching, but also avoids the phenomenon of too many students forming cliques.
After all, Master Zheng had not studied at the clan school for more than a few days, so he was unaware of the drawbacks of the academy model.
But Jia Huan knew it!
If it's not managed properly, problems like school bullying are bound to happen.
He hadn't mentioned that a capable underling would need to be assigned to oversee things at the clan school.
The goal is simple: to prevent the order and learning atmosphere of the clan school from being affected.
Therefore, Jia Huan planned to personally oversee the situation for a period of time before handing the important task over to Cong Ge'er.
As long as they can fight and keep those particularly naughty kids in check, that's fine!
After a while, you'll be able to tell whether someone has the aptitude for studying or the desire to study.
The division of students will be carried out at that time, which will have the least impact on the clan school and will not cause dissatisfaction among the clan members.
Some things are best kept to oneself; there's no need to inform Master Zheng.
As the head of the Rong family, all he needed to do was fully support Jia Huan so that he could make all the necessary arrangements smoothly at the clan school.
Once the clan school is back on track, it will be able to cultivate a continuous stream of talent over time.
As long as there are enough mid- to low-level talents, and as long as the Jia family in the capital does not participate in major treasonous cases such as rebellion, it is unlikely that they will be completely ruined.
Of course, the Jia family in the capital does not represent the Ning and Rong mansions!
In short, the fact that the Jia family academy produced two students who passed the imperial examinations has had a significant impact. When other noble families heard the news, they would offer their congratulations, whether sincerely or insincerely, when they met Master Zheng or Jia Lian.
At this time, Jia Huan had already returned to the clan school.

It was unusual that Xue Pan returned to the capital and appeared at the clan school.
"How come you, such a busy person, still have time to hang around in the clan school?"
Jia Huan casually kicked the leather football away, then asked with a smile.
"Well, I heard the clan school is quite lively here, so I came to take a look!"
Xue Pan chuckled, puffed out his chest, and said, "Things in Tongzhou are almost settled, so there's no need for me to stay there. That's why I'm heading back to the capital!"
"You didn't come back because you got bored in Tongzhou, did you?"
Jia Huan saw right through him and said irritably, "Behave yourself in the capital. If your enemies snatch you up with a sack and beat you up, don't blame me for not warning you!"
Xue Pan's expression hardened; he was genuinely worried that such a thing might happen.
In Tongzhou, he had many brothers supporting him, and he was very arrogant and domineering, but he offended many other forces.
Having witnessed many underworld tactics, he naturally didn't believe that his enemies wouldn't dare to attack him.
If you're not careful, you might accidentally capsize in a ditch – that would be truly unlucky!
My life isn't a big problem, but being humiliated is much more dangerous.
"Then I'll stay at the clan school for a while!"
Xue Pan said with a grin, "Perfect, let's get closer to Huan-ge'er!"
"Stop being disgusting!"
Jia Huan lightly punched the guy and said irritably, "It's good that you're here. There are quite a few new students at the clan school, and some of them have quite a temper!"
"It's not appropriate for Cong-ge and me to go too far. You can use your strength to bully the weak and let them see the wickedness of society, so they'll behave themselves for a while!"
With a smile, Jia Huan grabbed Xue Pan's men.
