Han Dao world

Lu Xiaohuan was puzzled. "It's a good thing, why do you..."

Madam Wei snorted. "It's a good thing for you, but not necessarily for him."

Lu Xiaohuan immediately understood, but pretended not to know.

Just chatting with her mother, she realized this, but she didn't know how to persuade her.Lu Bu listened to advice and refused to change it, and there was nothing she could do about it.Now that the emperor wants to keep Lu Bu, it's in her favor.

"In that case, then I will find a house with a good view for you, and stay longer. Ah Weng, do you still remember the scene when you left Wuguan, went to Nanyang, and met Yuan Shu?"

Lu Bu frowned slightly, thinking of the hardships of the year, he felt a little more guilty towards his wife.

"of course I remember."

"At that time, it was impossible to stay in Nanyang, but now you can live as long as you want, which is a blessing in disguise. Ever since the emperor visited Nanyang, Nanyang has changed every day. If you go out tomorrow, you will know how good it is. Speaking carefully, you are also responsible here. If the trade routes to the Western Regions were not unimpeded, how could the cloth woven by so many weaving workshops in Nanyang be sold?"

Lu Bu looked at Lu Xiaohuan, and saw Lu Xiaohuan blinking at him, understanding.

In the winter of the seventh year of Jian'an, Nanyang was extremely lively.

One is that the emperor visited Nanyang, and the top planners of the counties and states gathered in Nanyang, bringing news from all directions.

The second is that Nanyang officially implemented Dutian, and millions of people got the long-awaited land, saw hope in life, and their enthusiasm was high.The establishment of a large number of weaving workshops and printing workshops has provided them with more opportunities to make a living, and they have ample money visible to the naked eye.

Before the New Year, both Zhifang and Yinfang paid salaries in advance, and according to their own conditions, they distributed some things that could be used during the New Year, such as beef, mutton, oil, rice and the like.The conditions were good, and some high-quality clothing materials were even distributed, which became a strange talk for a while.

With money in the hands of the people, consumption immediately increased, and Wan City ushered in unprecedented prosperity.

More foreign merchants flocked here.

Huang She, the prefect of Nanyang, was very busy and happy.

The city tax alone has increased several times compared to last year, and the things I want to do next year are more likely to be successful.

Without money, everything is empty talk.

Building a school, hiring teachers, buying books and stationery, which one doesn't cost money?

But the prosperity in front of him made him understand that as long as the people support and unite as one, there is no problem that cannot be solved.

Schools can be built by the local people, and books and stationery can be purchased by the students themselves. Only the problem of insufficient teachers cannot be solved by the people themselves.

The students of Nanyang County School are very enthusiastic and willing to serve as teachers, even if there is no salary for the time being, they just need to take care of the meals.

Even so, the number is far from enough.

After thinking about it, Huang She decided to ask the emperor for help.

Daxing's education was originally the emperor's decision, and he must have thought about these issues long ago.

Huang She paid a visit to Liu Xie and explained his reason for coming.

Liu Xie was also taken aback.

He did not expect to need so many schools, so many teachers.

This means massive fiscal expenditures.

Even if, as Huang She said, the school is built locally without the county providing funds, and the books and stationery are provided by the students themselves, the teacher's salary is not a small amount.

A school with two to three hundred students must have at least three teachers.According to the previous standard of 300 shi to 4000 shi, one is more than [-] million.Even if the standard is lowered to [-] shi, it will cost [-] to [-] million.

A scholar earns [-] yuan a year, barely subsisting, and it can't be lower.

It is more than this price to enter the workshop to work.

Huang She also felt that it should not be too low.It's too low, and the lives of scholars are too hard, and they can't last long with only a passion.

Since the standard was four hundred to six hundred stones before, it is better to follow this standard now.For many scholars, it is very tempting to get a salary equivalent to a county magistrate without having to work.

After all, there are not many people who can continue to climb up. Many people are officials for a lifetime, that is, county magistrates and county magistrates.

The cost is indeed not low, but Nanyang County can still afford it.

He can go to a fundraiser.

[-] million may seem like a lot, but to the big family in Nanyang, it's really not a lot of money.

At that time, the emperor built Wanjintang to sell officials, and [-] million was a Sangong.There are still many people who are willing to exchange [-] million yuan for a few months, so that in the future they can engrave words like "Gu Taiwei" and "Gu Situ" on their tombstones.

Huang She spoke happily, but Liu Xie was a little embarrassed.

You really can't do without reading, but in front of me, you said that the first emperor sold his official titles, you are really decent.

But what this guy said made sense, Nanyang was not short of money, and there were too many big families with net worth of hundreds of millions.Wasn't the reason why the first emperor's finances were tight at the beginning because these lords, big and small, occupied a lot of land, but they didn't pay tribute to the court.

It's time to let them bleed a little.

"As long as you can raise money, you don't have to worry about having no teachers." Liu Xie said, "Situ Mansion will publish an announcement on the residence newspaper, and there will be a large number of scholars applying for the job."

Chapter 1058

Liu Xie immediately invited Situ Yang Biao to discuss the recruitment of teachers.

After listening to it, Yang Biao agreed with this plan in principle, but he proposed several amendments.

One is that we should not rush for quick results. We can build so many schools at once, but we can build them in batches.

There are many household registrations in Nanyang, but not so many as to require more than 1000 schools.The reason why there are so many school-age children is because there has never been such a large-scale education and accumulation before.

It is impossible to completely solve the problems accumulated over decades in one or two years.

It can be divided into three to four batches, and children over the age of 12 are admitted first, and the schooling lasts for one year.After one year, it is decided whether they will continue their studies or work in workshops.

From the current point of view, it is not necessary to have too profound knowledge to enter the workshop to work, and it is enough to be able to read and write.

One year of education is enough for such a task.

The second is the matter of enlightenment, it is best not to solicit donations.

For things like bridge repairs and road paving, donations can be raised by local wealthy households, which can not only solve the financial burden, but also meet their psychological needs for benefiting the village.Enlightenment is a matter for the imperial court, and it is related to the plan for the next hundred years, so it cannot be influenced by them.

The purpose of the court to educate the people is to fight against these local tyrants and strengthen the majesty of the court.

How can they not know, how can they not hate?

If they are asked to pay, they will inevitably try to exert influence, and finally let the educated people only remember them and not the court.

And the most direct way is to win over those teachers who bear the responsibility of education.

Don't forget, Your Majesty, although they are passionate, most of them are against Du Tian.Although the thinking has changed, it is not necessarily thorough, and it is easy to be bewitched.

Scholars from aristocratic families and rich families have not changed their attitudes. They will not let it go and wait for the opportunity to counterattack.

Liu Xie felt reasonable and decided that Yang Biao would preside over the specific implementation plan.

After Yang Biao's adjustment, the difficulty of promoting enlightenment has dropped by one level, and it seems to be more feasible.

The news was soon announced that [-] teachers will be recruited in Nanyang County, and they will be selected if they pass the established standard examination.

The content of the exam is not complicated, and there are very few parts of the Five Classics. It is enough to be familiar with books such as "The Analects of Confucius", "Mencius", and "Book of Filial Piety".

If it is difficult, it may be that relatively practical content such as mathematics is required.

Of course, the difficulty is not high, just enough to meet the daily calculation.

Perhaps it was the last requirement that made many people quit. After the first registration was over, there were less than two hundred people who planned to take the exam.

At this time, Yang Biao issued an order from the Situ Mansion.

Insufficient places will be selected nationwide.

-

Seeing this result, Liu Xie admired Yang Biao's sophistication, but at the same time was puzzled.

Nanyang is full of talented people. There are hundreds of students in the county school alone, and they are very enthusiastic. Why are there so few people who sign up?

Yang Biao explained that the main reason is that there are too few general arithmetic students.

Many people only ask the scriptures and meanings when they read books, not the rest, and they can't even take care of themselves.

In addition to enabling the common people to read and read government orders by themselves, enlightenment also has the purpose of allowing them to work in workshops, which requires practical learning such as arithmetic.This is something that previous scholars didn't have to think about, and naturally not many people are willing to spend their minds on studying mathematics.

Unless one is interested in studying "Yi" or temperament, these subjects must use arithmetic.

Therefore, those masters of mathematics either study Yixue and astronomy and calendar, or are masters of rhythm.Even among scholars, these people are outstanding elites.

With this level, they don't have to worry about their future at all, and they are not interested in taking the exam and becoming rural teachers.

Therefore, education has a long way to go, and it cannot be solved in three to five years.

This is a real century-old plan, there is no rush.

Finally, Yang Biao said that the renovation of the county school has been completed, and His Majesty can take advantage of the New Year's opportunity to inspect the county school.

In addition to this, there is another thing, that is, to conclude Liu Biao's coffin.

Simply put, it is a posthumous posthumous title.

Strictly speaking, Liu Biao is incompetent as an official, at most he is a conservative, and he has not fulfilled his responsibility to help the court in troubled times.However, as a Confucian, he still made a lot of contributions. In the troubled times, he provided many people with the conditions to earn a living and study, and preserved a trace of culture.

Most of those scholars who are about to serve as rural teachers have benefited from it.

At this moment, giving Liu Biao a posthumous posthumous title can appease people's hearts, and at the same time show that the imperial court's attitude towards Confucianism is to reform rather than deny it.

If you consider that Liu Biao is still a clan, it is even more necessary.

Generally speaking, Liu Biao made mistakes, but no major mistakes.Since His Majesty does not intend to pursue his arrogance alone, but the general behavior of a party member and aristocratic family, it is necessary to affirm Liu Biao's achievements.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of inspecting the county school, he determined Liu Biao's posthumous title, commented on Liu Biao, and calmed people's hearts. He could also settle the portrait incident of the county school, so as not to panic and be used by some people.

After weighing repeatedly for a long time, Liu Xie agreed to Yang Biao's request and asked him to take the lead in discussing this matter.

Unlike Zhang Xi's incident at the time, the current situation has stabilized, and the court can release a little goodwill to ease the grievances accumulated by the scholar-bureaucrats, avoid unnecessary conflicts, and then focus on the issues that must be dealt with.

In the eighth year of Jian'an, the thirteenth day of the first lunar month.

Emperor Liu Xie, Empress Fushou and others were fortunate to study in Nanyang County.

Standing in front of the re-engraved portrait of Wang Chang, Liu Xie looked at it again and again, and listened to Wang Can's story of the year, expressing that in extraordinary times, extraordinary methods should be used to show his approval of Wang Chang's overkill.

Wang Can was in full bloom.

With the evaluation of the emperor, Wang Chang need not worry about his posthumous reputation.

Song Zhong heard it, but it felt like a light was on his back, a stalk was in his throat, and he was sitting on pins and needles.

The emperor's praise of Wang Chang is a negation of Liu Biao, that is, a negation of his previous affairs, which is a complete loss of face.

After seeing the portrait, Liu Xie sat down in the hall and asked about their lectures in Xiangyang.

With Yin Jian in front, no one dared to mention Liu Biao.

Wang Can didn't want to mention it either.When Liu Biao thought he was ugly, he always kept it in his heart.

Seeing the silence of the audience, Liu Xie secretly sighed.

Sure enough, people are leaving the tea to cool down.In contrast, although Song Zhong is confused, he is still a man of affection.

Liu Xie winked at Queen Fushou.

Fu Shou understood, stood up and spoke, saying that Liu Biao was credited with governing the stable side of Jingzhou, attracting scholars from all over the world to give lectures, and cultivating so many talents.Later, he returned to the court and was responsible for the painting of Luoyang scrolls, which was also very effective.

People can not escape from doing wrong.Liu Biao's merits in his study and administration outweighed his demerits, which is worthy of being passed down by future generations.

Liu Xie immediately agreed, and asked Liu Biao how to determine his posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous title.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief, and countless people even wept with joy as if they were being pardoned.

The imperial court gave Liu Biao a positive evaluation and a posthumous title, which exceeded their expectations and proved that their previous worries were unnecessary.

The mind of the Son of Heaven can be guessed by very people, so there is no need to be apprehensive and act like a child.

Chapter 1059 As I Wish

Affirming Liu Biao's posthumous title wiped away the dark clouds that had shrouded everyone's hearts, and the originally depressing atmosphere immediately became enthusiastic.

As a result, Liu Xie once again saw the spirit of the book business and the strength of what was later called the Jingzhou School.

As the saying goes, men like to talk about politics, and this becomes more so as history goes on.
