The splitting of the school must be done.
Otherwise, with more students enrolling in the future, it will sooner or later become overcrowded.
So after discussing it with the old man, Takumi made a decision on this matter.
The various disciplines would be split directly, and several new schools would be rebuilt.
The new campuses would also require planning.
So there was no need to rush.
The two only discussed the general direction.
If it was really going to be implemented, other people would need to be called in to discuss it.
For example, Dr. Mei.
The matter of splitting the schools must go through her.
Keqing and Ningguang also needed to be informed.
Keqing's main concern was the land issue.
This was relatively easy to solve.
Just designate some areas and let Keqing arrange for people to build the schools.
After the two roughly discussed the content,
Takumi said to the old man:
"That's about it."
"Come over again tomorrow."
"I'll call Dr. Mei and Ningguang over so we can discuss it further."
Hearing Takumi's words, Zhongli nodded.
"Alright."
"In that case, I'll come back tomorrow."
"That's all for today."
Zhongli glanced at the time.
He then got up and left.
It was time to go out and eat.
Seeing the old man's smooth departure, Takumi was a little dumbfounded.
But he didn't say anything and instead asked Nuwa to send a message to Dr. Mei.
She was asked to come to the General Affairs Department tomorrow to discuss some matters.
After receiving Takumi's message, Dr. Mei felt slightly puzzled.
But she didn't think much about it.
If there was something, she would find out tomorrow.
So she wasn't worried.
She continued with her class.
When Takumi returned home that night, he immediately told Ningguang and keqing about it.
The two were stunned when they heard him.
"Splitting them so soon?"
"Are you sure this is okay?"
Ningguang frowned.
It hadn't been long since the school was built, and now it was being dismantled?
Wasn't this too fast?
"It's not really a split."
"It's more like branch schools."
"Just not all in one place."
"It's equivalent to rebuilding new schools."
Hearing this explanation, the two immediately understood.
"That makes sense."
"If that's the case, then it's fine."
"Tomorrow, I'll go over and discuss it together."
After thinking about it for a moment, Ningguang understood.
Branch campuses, right?
She understood immediately.
That was how things worked in many other places.
Even if they were in the same city, they were far apart.
It was just a separation of disciplines.
Now it seemed that the existing school really wasn't enough.
It was estimated that even more people would come to study in the future.
After all, Liyue didn't have an entrance examination system.
As long as your grades were acceptable, you could enroll directly.
Even if your grades weren't very good, Liyue would arrange a suitable major based on your talents.
In any case, no one would be abandoned.
"As for land, we can only go to the outer city."
"Most of the inner city has already been developed."
"You know this best."
"After all, you planned it."
Keqing rolled her eyes at Takumi as she spoke.
If everything was built within Liyue Harbor, there wouldn't be enough land.
They could only expand outward.
Hearing her words, Takumi nodded.
"I know."
"So I plan to build toward Liyue Harbor's outskirts."
"It's not a big problem."
"It's time to develop the old man's manor area."
"The areas near the space agency also need infrastructure, don't they?"
"People there have to travel a long way just to cook or live."
"This would solve everything at once."
Places like the space agency were actually very remote.
There were barely any residents nearby.
Aside from a few dormitories, there was nothing else.
But if schools were built there, things would gradually develop.
Once the schools were established, supporting facilities would follow.
It really was killing two birds with one stone.
"That area could also host the machinery and alchemy academies."
"When the time comes, students can intern there directly."
Thinking about it that way, it seemed feasible.
"Yes."
"Other branches can be built elsewhere."
"A campus can also be built in Mingyun Town."
"There's also Dihua Marsh…"
"No, forget Dihua Marsh."
"Let's move the Biology Academy directly to Cuijue Slope."
"There are pastures in Dihua Marsh, which isn't suitable for a school."
"And there's also the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor…"
At the end of his thoughts, Takumi fell silent.
If a school were really built there,
no one would probably want to attend.
Although most of Wangsheng's business had shifted to insurance,
its core function was still the same.
If an academy were built there,
Hu Tao would probably go to the school every day to promote business.
So forget it.
"That works."
"What about the rest?"
After thinking it over, keqing agreed.
What about things like the Cultural Academy?
"The Cultural Academy should be built in Liyue Harbor."
"A lot of land has been freed after redevelopment."
"Some of it can be used to build schools."
"Besides, Liyue Harbor has always been Liyue's cultural center."
"It must be built there."
Takumi directly decided the location.
Hearing this, keqing and Ningguang exchanged glances.
Then they nodded.
Alright.
That was reasonable.
The matters were basically settled.
After discussing for a while longer, Takumi had a rough plan in mind.
They would finalize it tomorrow with Zhongli and the others.
After finishing the discussion, everyone went to rest.
The next day arrived quickly.
Takumi brought keqing and Ningguang to the General Affairs Department.
At the agreed time,
Dr. Mei and Zhongli soon arrived.
When the staff of the General Affairs Department saw these people gather,
question marks immediately appeared on their faces.
"Master Takumi just came with Ms. Ningguang and Ms. Keqing."
"And now Mr. Zhongli and Principal Mei are here too."
"Is something going on with education?"
Seeing this lineup, it was obvious what was being discussed.
Many people in the department were confused.
"Stop talking and get back to work."
"You'll know when the time comes."
Someone quickly shut down the discussion.
There was still work to do.
When the time came, the news would naturally spread.
Was there anything that could stay hidden for long in Liyue?
Hearing this, those gossiping people chuckled.
They quickly dispersed and returned to their work.
