How I Opened an Academy and Went from Losing Money to Becoming the Richest

Bai Feixin is kidnapped by the System and taken to ancient times to run an academy. Ancient times can't compare to the modern world. She just wants to go home. She discovers that if the academy runs at a loss, she'll be sent back. Looking at the dilapidated academy the System has left her, Bai Feixin smiles. "Making a loss? That's easy as pie." For teachers, why hire famous scholars? Can't some idle young people picked up by the roadside teach? The doors and walls are falling apart. Why bother fixing them? As long as there's a classroom, lessons can go on. The academy is holding a huge amount of bonds? Burn them all. With all that, surely the academy will lose money. What a delightful plan. Then... Students: The academy's teachers are actually hidden masters. Teacher Bai has such a keen eye for talent. Commoners: Teacher Bai burned our bonds. What a righteous person! We must repay her. The ruler: Teacher is a pillar of my state. No one but her deserves to be the Crown Prince's tutor. Bai Feixin looks down at the little Crown Prince by her feet, completely bewildered. She asks in confusion, "How did I end up making money?" Everyone asks in reply, "Which person are you talking to?" She turns around. All kinds of famous people from history, whom the academy has gathered without her even noticing, are looking at her. Bai Feixin: "..." "I really only wanted to lose money!" Two thousand years later, when historians study Bai Feixin, the ancient poet, tutor to an emperor for the ages, famous gourmet, great inventor, and richest person in the Xiang Kingdom, they always wonder what led this all-around genius to open an academy in the first place. It has become an age-old mystery. Note: This is a fictional setting. Women can hold official positions. The Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods have been blended together, so famous historical figures from different eras will appear at the same time. Updates daily.
