First Minister of Ming Dynasty

not good!

Money is just and righteous. When we were young when we were studying, everyone had memorized it. The same is true for the heavy snow in winter.

What, can't carry it anymore?

Moreover, going to Shandong means working hard to start a school. To set up a school, you have to work hard. Don’t think it’s hard to go this way. Students from Shandong have to go over mountains and mountains to study, and it will only be more difficult.

As teachers, let's experience the difficulties of students in advance. What's wrong?

When Zhang Xiang and I built the Jimin School, we worked so hard.

As a scholar, you must not be pampered and pampered. If you are used to living a good life, you will not be able to suffer. This is not acceptable.

……

His reasoning is so righteous that it is impossible to refute it.

The result is that each scholar has at least [-] catties of bookcases on his back, carrying clothes and books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and marching along the road to Shandong against the sun.

After a day of walking, the clothes on my body were wet and dry, dry and wet, and whenever there was a place to rest and drink water, this group of people completely disregarded the dignity, lying on the edge of the well, like cattle and horses, gulping I poured water until I could make the sound of water in my stomach.

It's just a matter of working hard, Qian Yongren also suggested that since we are going to teach, we should familiarize ourselves with the content of the lecture in advance.

First of all, it is natural to learn from Zhang Xiang's articles... The Outline of Juntian, the assertion of destiny and people's hearts, the three rises, and the sacrificial oration in front of Yue Fei's grave.

All in all, we must be aware of everything that Zhang Xiang puts forward.

Not only must you be familiar with it by heart, but you must also understand Zhang Xiang's intentions.

At night, don't rush to rest, light a bonfire, and the big guys sit together, talk about their experiences, and exchange experiences.

Qian Yongren is so tossing around, it's strange to have good things to say, and all the literati in his company scold him.

But Qian Yongrenhun doesn't care, just scold me, the harder you scold me, the more sincere it will appear that I have reformed myself.

When we arrive in Shandong, the more we can ask Mr. Zhang for forgiveness.

Aren't you unwilling to talk to me?

Okay, I invite Wu Fu to come over, and it's the same when we talk together.

Anyway, we will teach together in the future, so it is good to exchange experience in advance.

The group of people selected by Lao Zhu, of course, are generally literate, have made meritorious service, and have reliable character.But in the face of the invitation from the former Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, the big guys still dare not neglect.

His knowledge is indeed good, we use this little ink to teach students, and it is not a mistake!

Hurry up and learn from others!

In this way, Qian Yongren managed to pull together a group of people in a short period of time.

Faced with such a shameless thing, the 190 nine scholars who came together were all angry!

If you do the first day of junior high school, we will do the fifteenth day.

Isn't it shameless to read the same book?

Who is worse than whom?

If you can come, so can we!

They got together, discussed several times, and simply tinkered with the idea of ​​restoring the orthodoxy of the Master... They believed that since Confucianism was abolished and only respected Confucianism, Confucianism had deviated from the original intention of the Master.

In particular, the Confucian officials of Zhao and Song Dynasties, with their brilliant heads and poor scriptures, not only failed to revive China, but caused the country to be destroyed and their families to perish, and China to sink. It can be seen that it is necessary to rectify the source.

Rediscover the true meaning of the master.

The purpose of building Fudan School in Confucian Mansion this time is to correct mistakes.

Zhang Xiang has lofty aspirations, and he can be called a living master.

The sky does not give birth to Zhongni, and eternity is like a long night.

Zhang Zi was born again in the sky, and Huaxia will end in Fudan!

Zhang Ximeng was finally recognized by the literati, at least part of the literati.

Qian Yongren led some warriors, and another large group of literati gathered together. There were only 400 people, and there was already a clear distinction between them.

"Zhang Xiang, I regret reading those books now."

Sitting opposite Zhang Ximeng, Liu Bowen groaned, the flesh on his face twitched. The more he read the report, the angrier he became. How can a dignified scholar be so shameless?

"With these insects, how can we run a good school?" Liu Bowen scolded angrily.

Zhang Ximeng was also very angry, but he was prepared. This group of people has this kind of virtue. Do you expect them to be different?

"Mr. Bowen, when it comes to this, we should also think about what is a talent and how to cultivate a talent? We have been studying for many years. Apart from letting the big guys read and write, it seems that there are still many deficiencies. , and it should be made up in time."

Liu Bowen deeply agreed, "Mr. Zhang, I have thought a lot about it. In fact, it is true that talents should value virtue and put virtue before talent. It's just that what counts as virtue is the fundamental thing!"

Zhang Ximeng nodded, "Sure enough... Don't think that Confucianism has always paid attention to the rules and regulations, and seems to put the monarch and father in the most important position, but in fact, Confucian scholars care more about the inheritance of masters and apprentices, and pay more attention to knowing and repaying kindness. The result is formed. A bunch of cronies, seeing each other's sects, old and new, fighting with great joy, any family, country, and world are all tools for internal fighting."

Liu Bowen nodded again and again, "Mr. Zhang, since that's the case, then shall we make a plan?"

Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "My lord sent a lot of warriors here this time, I think it's a good opportunity...we'll extract the history part and compile it into a teaching material, and then these warriors will be responsible for it...Study history, correct people's hearts, To develop wisdom, to distinguish right from wrong, to distinguish right from wrong, we must bring the part of moral cultivation back to the imperial court. In education, we must promote loyalty, loyalty to the emperor, loyalty to Ming Dynasty, and loyalty to the common people. Students and disciples form a group, and we must truly make this Fudan Academy open to the world and cultivate talents for China!"

Liu Bowen readily agreed that it is true that students should not be completely handed over to those literati, but they should be robbed of their hearts.

I am afraid that it will not work if we want to continue the tradition of internal fighting to Fudan School.

Then there is the cultivation of students, and the six arts of a gentleman are a must.

But it is not enough.

"Mr. Bowen, look around the world, [-]% of them are farmers, and [-]% of our taxes come from land tax, not to mention soldiers and horses, almost [-]% of them are farmers... If our officials and students don't understand agriculture at all, then It’s not going to work. We need to teach agronomy to teach students how to farm!”

Liu Bowen smiled, "Mr. Zhang, farming requires livestock. Shouldn't it be time to learn veterinary medicine?"

"Yes! You must learn, you must learn! There are also water conservancy, astronomy and calendar, everything related to farming acres, you should learn! We will immediately draw up a memorial and send it to Yingtian."

Zhang Ximeng did what he said, and he really got busy with Liu Bowen...

"Mr. Zhang is right!" Zhu Yuanzhang clapped his hands and praised, "We were born in farming. If we were able to farm in the past, why are we doing it today? Somebody, call the prince."

Not long after, Zhu Biao rushed over, and found a shovel, a hoe, and two bamboo baskets.

There was another smiling face of Zhu Yuanzhang, "Go, Dad will lead you to work in the fields!"

Zhu Biao's smile suddenly froze...

Chapter 515 Change, starting with education

The farming Zhu Yuanzhang talked about is not just taking a hoe and going to the farmland to make a fuss.After all, compared with future emperors, Zhu Yuanzhang really knows how to plow the fields.

Soil preparation, composting, plowing, sowing, weeding, harvesting... Lao Zhu knows everything.

It is different from the situation in the later generations, where the seeds are sown, fertilizers and pesticides are applied, and the harvest can be waited for. The current farming is much more complicated. It is necessary to regularly eliminate insects and weeds, and always pay attention to the condition of the seedlings. To irrigate both.

And weeding and so on, you have to go out to work under the sun... Because of the noon exposure, weeds can be quickly killed, otherwise the stubborn weeds, as long as they have a breath, will take root again and come back to life again, except for a lonely .

If it rains during weeding, it probably won't work.

In addition to food, there is also the need to grow vegetables and miscellaneous grains... This one is even more troublesome, not to mention other things, just all kinds of beans, red beans, mung beans, soybeans, kidney beans, broad beans.Early maturing, late maturing.There are almost dozens of different varieties.

In order to enrich the dining table and let the children in the family eat more, the same seeds must be planted according to the seasons while plowing the fields.

What is planted in Qingming and what is planted in Grain Rain are all in the same place. Only in this way can we gain something.

Therefore, farming in ancient times was not just a matter of being dull and stupid. You must be familiar with the seasons, the calendar, and even some weather changes. Only by mastering these tips can you grow crops well.

Another thing is to be honest and willing to work, not afraid of being dirty or tired.

If there is no chemical fertilizer, we must find a way to fertilize.

Manure, rotten leaves, pond mud... these are dug up, piled up, fermented and decomposed, and turned into usable farmyard manure.

It's a pity that the hard-earned farmyard manure, a basket of [-] catties, was carried to the field, and I was so tired that I bent over. The nutrients it could provide were not as good as a small handful of chemical fertilizers.

The hardships of farmers can be imagined.

In fact, when you really understand these things, you will naturally understand the reason for cherishing the power of the people... because the random conscripting of the people for military service and disrupting the farming season can cause a decrease in production at least, or a failure of harvest at worst.

Loss of harvest often means that people will starve to death.

Therefore, for the common people, you can stimulate their enthusiasm, let them build canals, dig trenches, and build reservoirs. This is no problem, and the common people are willing to work hard.

But doing these must be done during the slack time of the farm, or let the people arrange it themselves, so that they can work after taking care of their own farming, otherwise, things will backfire.

……

God is pitiful, Zhu Biao was only eight years old, and he was carried by Lao Zhu, digging pits and planting seeds, and Lao Zhu's exhortations kept ringing in his ears.

Over and over again, keep asking, have you written it down?

Zhu Biao is going crazy, I am your son, it is unreasonable to bully children!

After barely planting two ridges of land, the little guy sat down on the ground, panting heavily, with hot sweat on his forehead.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt distressed when he saw it, but he was more hesitant... This child is not in good health. When we were young, we were less than six years old, so we went to work in the fields. We worked all day without knowing how tired we were.

This kid can only do such a little work, so he complains endlessly.

This will not work!

"Zhu Biao, you are the big brother. You want to set an example for your brothers. In the future, you can come here when you have time and learn to farm. Also, let your mother take you to raise silkworms, pick tea, spin yarn and weave. Bu, you can learn everything, there’s nothing wrong with it. Don’t think it’s something girls do, Mr. Zhang still likes to knit sweaters! Our treasury’s financial and tax success depends on silk and tea, so we can’t be careless.”

Zhu Biao really cried, I want to change my father, wait online, it is urgent.

On Jinling's side, Zhu Yuanzhang used Zhang Ximeng's set of ideas to teach his son, but in Shandong, he used this set of ideas to train talents.

"Zhang Xiang, I remember that a few years ago, you said that people-based education was based on food and clothing, and daily use is the way... Now that I think about it, it's almost time to implement it, right?"

Liu Bowen said with a smile.

It has never been easy for a proposition to be put into practice, from books to reality.

If you have any ideas, there must be some supporting measures to implement them, otherwise it is just empty talk.

Take Confucianism as an example. They call themselves scholar-bureaucrats, think that all things are low-grade but only reading is high, and that fame can only be obtained in books.

After obtaining the corresponding fame, you can get a considerable amount of treatment, and truly realize Yan Ruyu, the golden house, and one-stop shopping.

Even if you are seventy or eighty, old and ugly, with kidney deficiency and waist pain, night sweats, and poverty... as long as you can get a good name, you will immediately become a flower in ten miles and eight towns, and countless people will scramble to cling to it.

This is not to say that it is correct. The problem is that people have closed the loop of logic from advocacy to practice.

At the beginning, Zhang Ximeng concluded that food and clothing are the foundation, and daily use is the way.Advocating the people-oriented proposition of being close to the people and loving the people... But how to implement it is still missing a crucial step.

So to say that you want to replace Confucianism is really not a matter of saying a few words.

The current Fudan School is a crucial step.

"Mr. Bowen, it is indeed at this time, but how to set it up still needs deliberation. In short, it can't be like the Imperial College."

Of course Liu Bowen agreed. In the final analysis, the Guozijian was mainly for cultivating officials. Young talents who were proficient in literature and righteousness from all over the country were recommended to enter the Guozijian.

In the Guozijian, there are six halls of straightforwardness, morality, sincerity, justice, aspirations, and broad industry. Just by listening to the names, you can almost know what they are doing.

The courses are also mainly, Four Books and Five Classics, as well as laws and decrees, books, numbers, "Imperial Imperial Law" and so on.

The assessment method is to test the scriptures every month, one for the scriptures, two for the edict, the imperial edict, the table, the policy theory, the judgment, and the internal medicine.

I study more than [-] characters every day, using the posts of Erwang, Zhiyong, Ou, Yu, Yan, and Liu as the method.In order to be able to write a beautiful pavilion style to meet the needs of official documents.

Although the things Zhang Ximeng said have been introduced into the classroom over the years, it is only limited to what Zhang Xiang said again. Let's find out, you may be able to use it in the exam... that's all.

"Fudan Academy is not aimed at cultivating officials, but at cultivating talents in various industries. Therefore, the courses of classics and articles must be reduced and compressed. Set up six subjects of agriculture, engineering, medicine, business, astronomy, and arithmetic. Tentatively eight years, the first three years are basic courses, and the last five years are professional courses. Students can enter different colleges and study according to their interests and test scores. After completing their studies, they can enter various industries with their graduation certificates. Serve the country."

Zhang Ximeng spoke very roughly, but in fact he couldn't talk about it in detail... because the mathematics, physics and chemistry that Zhang Ximeng really wanted to do had not even established a discipline system for the time being.

He can only use the name of engineering to conduct some experiments and explain some principles, and then refine the theory to form a new physics school and chemistry school.In addition, agricultural science is also a general classification, such as fertilizers, improved seeds, soil improvement, and salinization control, all of which can be attributed to it. If they are dismantled, they will also involve water conservancy and engineering content.

The most interesting thing is business, which is also a basket, which even includes foreign language courses, can you believe it?

Although the Department of Maritime Shipping has been established long ago, and overseas business is also being done, it is still impossible to set up a navigation department, introduce the situation of overseas barbarians, and encourage navigation development.

This is not a matter of resistance. I really want to establish a school and establish a discipline. I don’t even have the basic teaching materials. What is the research of this discipline, what is the direction, what is the method... all are blank.

Zhang Ximeng can only sell dog meat first, and take advantage of the opportunity of running a school to select suitable talents, improve corresponding disciplines, and establish a new college when the opportunity is right.

According to Zhang Ximeng's goal, within ten years, Fudan School will be turned into a comprehensive school with at least [-] majors, with a large scale and more than [-] students.

Not only Daming, but looking at the whole world, it is second to none, unparalleled.

Even such a rough frame is refreshing enough.
