After the whole sect traveled to ancient times, I led the rebellion

A new clinic has opened on the main street of Muqing.

The director of the clinic is Li Min.

Not only that, the prefectural school in Anping and the county schools in various places have already started the preparation work, and Li Min will be hired as a medical teacher at that time.

The content of the provincial school is similar to that of the Huangxian County School. The imperial examination disappeared in the Tianchi Dynasty, and Mu Qing incorporated this part of the content into the Chinese textbook.

The main subjects to be studied in the provincial school include basic mathematics, basic Chinese, basic biology, basic chemistry and basic physics. Now two more subjects have been added: basic medicine and basic political history.

The provincial school consists of two three-year programs. The content of each year gradually increases in volume and difficulty. There are examinations every year. Those who pass the examinations can choose to continue their studies or be assigned a job by the government.

The positions are generally scientific research and technical positions.

Students who choose to continue their studies can continue their studies by passing assessments after three years of study, and the content of their studies will be more complex at this time.

That is the content of the next three-year study.

There are few talented people in Anping, and few literate people. Mu Qing has already transferred a group of graduates from Huangxian's night school, but there is still a shortage of people.

The thoughts of the young and middle-aged people in Anping are mostly stereotyped, and many of their ideas and concepts are difficult to change.

For example, the deeply rooted concept of favoring boys over girls, and the three obediences and four virtues, and the superiority of men over women...

Thoughts still need to be cultivated from an early age.

Mu Qing set the admission age for the provincial school at over seven years old. In this era, there was no such thing as child labor, so as long as they passed the assessment, Mu Qing would dare to use them.

Mu Qing's purpose in opening the government school was to cultivate a group of talents who were receptive to new ideas.

Any student who graduated from the prefectural school was considered Mu Qing's talent.

Mu Qing was not afraid that they would leave Anping and be used by others.

Their intellectual talents are destined to be suitable only for Anping.

With the experience of establishing Huangxian County School, it would not take much time to prepare for the establishment of the provincial school.

The public notice office posts the information and registration method for the provincial school.

Li Min happened to pass by the public notice office on his way home from get off work at the clinic. Since the 356th year of the Tianchi Dynasty, the decrees issued by various cities have been different.

Li Min has been to many prefectures and counties, but none of them is like Anping.

Anping's decrees were open and transparent, written entirely in vernacular Chinese, and any literate person in Guizhou could understand their meaning.

Li Min was holding a cup of milk tea. Over the past few days, he had gradually fallen in love with this popular drink in Anping.

"Li Si, remember to review the cross-stitching technique when you get back."

"Yes."

Li Min sighed. He had such a great reputation throughout his life, but he actually taught such a stupid apprentice.

Wei Jiu was obviously quite clever when he was with him, and he was pretty good with a knife, but why was he so stiff when it came to holding a needle?

But the needles at Anping Medical Clinic are quite useful.

Li Min squeezed through the noisy crowd around him and looked up at the newly posted decree at the public notice board.

The provincial school.

Mu Qing is really ambitious.

If Anping opened a provincial school, all the scholars in Anping would probably be Mu Qing's disciples.

Moreover.

Li Min looked at the governor of the prefectural school with a fixed gaze.

"Only twenty cents! Good God, am I seeing right?"

The people beside Li Min read the words of the decree aloud.

The people around were all stunned by the news about the provincial school.

"Even if you provide your own food and lodging, the tuition fee for this prefectural school is not high."

"Zhang San is right. We will have a provincial school in Anping. And this salary can be earned back in just two days of work."

"Then did you say how much the paper, ink, brush and inkstone cost?"

"The government pays for the paper, ink, brush, and inkstone. But even if the paper and ink are not included, everyone knows the price in paper shops nowadays. It won't cost much."

"That's true. The prefectural school is losing money by doing this."

"That's right. Lord Mu is devoted to us. Even the tuition fees of the provincial school are so low. I have never seen any school with tuition fees as low as ours in Anping.

I have to go first. I will feel at ease only after I register my son. "

"Then I have to hurry up, too. If I miss the trip later I'll have to wait until tomorrow."

Li Min watched helplessly as the crowd of onlookers changed in groups.

Anping’s policies were different and did not prioritize scholars and dignitaries.

In the prefectures, states and imperial courts that Li Min had seen, book resources were always controlled by the top of the pyramid, that is, the scholars and dignitaries.

Among them, there were hardly any farmers' children among the students in the provincial and county schools; almost all of them were sons of the powerful and wealthy.

Even if these institutions have entry requirements, there are still children of officials who take advantage of their connections or rob students without any background to get in.

What is even more ironic is that the so-called poor students are not children from poor families, but scholars from small and medium-sized landlords' families.

The real poor students ended up like Mo Xuzhi.

Li Min looked at the decree again and again, and couldn't help but sigh.

If every farmer's son could be educated, it would be difficult for all power to be in the hands of scholars and dignitaries.

Things are about to change in Anping.

Zhang San was changing shifts today and strolled out. He saw Li Min looking at the notice board, and he couldn't help but step forward:

"Aunt, do you want to know the decree from above? Let me read it to you."

Zhang San thought Li Min was illiterate, so he was kind enough to read it to him directly, and at the same time let the illiterate people around him know the government's notice.

Li Min did not reject Zhang San's kindness. He looked at the young man with a smile.

"Reading is good. Reading can help you gain knowledge."

"Yes, if you study, you can become an official, make a lot of money, and even manage a factory. I heard that you can make a lot of money in a month. If I were not old, I would also like to study in a provincial school."

"Zhang San, can you really become an official if you study at the provincial school?"

Someone asked curiously.

"Oh, Aunt Sun, of course I'm not sure.

It is possible that there is such a probability. If everyone who enters the prefectural school can become an official, then there will be officials everywhere."

"makes sense."

"If you want to be an official, you have to be the best student."

"That makes sense."

Li Min echoed.

The young man's word "probability" was very comprehensive, so Li Min asked:

"I see that you have also received education. Did you study in Anping?"

"How can that be possible? I used to be a farmer and I could barely make a penny a year. Studying requires money, and I don't have any."

Zhang San scratched his head and smiled:

“I learned to read at Huangxian Night School. I went to night school and then there was a literacy campaign. Not only me, but even my neighbor could recognize a few Chinese characters.

This is a mandatory requirement of the government. I didn’t understand it before, but now I understand the benefits of studying.

After learning to read, I can even understand government decrees.”

Zhang San looked at Li Min seriously:

"Aunt, when Anping starts its literacy campaign, you can go and learn it, so that you can read the government decrees more easily."

As Li Min listened, he gradually began to appreciate the meaning.

Literacy?

Is literacy campaign to make all the people in Anping and Qiandu learn to read?

Li Min did not explain the fact that he was not illiterate. He did not even hear what Zhang San said next and quickly left for the government office.

"strangeness."

Zhang San muttered something when he saw Li Min leaving.

"I saw this guy a few days ago. He is indeed a weirdo."

Aunt Sun stood side by side with Zhang San, with her hands on her hips.

The two watched Li Min walk away in silence.
