“Your Highness, is this really for the Physics Academy?”
Inside the Bowen Academy, Lin Wentao asked in an excited voice.
The students of the Physics Academy were flushed with excitement as they looked at the fifty thousand taels of silver notes in Xiao Ming’s hands.
They had all been poor scholars; none had ever seen this much money before. Fifty thousand taels—it was unbelievable.
Xiao Ming nodded. “This is what I promised you. Naturally, it’s for you. But one thing—this money is for public use by the Physics Academy, not for private gain. It will be managed by the academy’s administration, and every expenditure will be reported to the government office.”
Lin Wentao nodded in agreement. This meant that aside from the usual support provided by the government, they now had an independent budget to buy experimental materials as needed.
“Thank you, Your Highness! We will use this money carefully.” Lin Wentao’s face was glowing with joy. Last time, it was his lack of funds that got him kicked out of the textile workshop. Now that they had funds, they could finally run experiments freely.
Xiao Ming handed the silver notes to the administration of the Academy and clearly explained their purpose.
Aside from being the head of Bowen Academy, Xiao Ming had appointed several old scholars to teach literature and oversee daily affairs—this formed the academy’s administrative office. Without such oversight, a large academy like this would have descended into chaos.
After storing the silver in the academy treasury, Xiao Ming walked around the campus. Unlike before, the learning atmosphere was vibrant. Students could be seen gathered in groups discussing textbooks.
