Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons
Chapter 161: Passerby A died before the escape began 17
Then some remnants found that hard tactics didn't work, so they tried soft tactics, controlling the prices of paper and books, and not allowing educated people to work in schools.
Then the heroine directly took out papermaking and printing technology to solve the problem of textbooks, but the lack of teachers was indeed a problem, and the emperor could not force anyone to take the position.
After learning about this, the heroine offered another suggestion, which was to simply move the modern civil service examination system over. The emperor then issued a law, requiring that in the future, those who wanted to become an official could only do so through a civil service examination. Only students who graduated from university were eligible to take the examination. This directly broke down the defenses of those rebels. The emperor's message was, "If you don't let me live a good life, then you won't be able to live a good life either."
After all, there are few teachers and I can train you slowly. What about you? You are from a noble family and you are not an official. You may still have some influence in the first few years. You wait for five or eight years to see who will pay attention to you. In the end, there is no choice but for those noble families to unite and send representatives to talk to the emperor, to ask him what he really wants.
The emperor saw that he had crippled them all and the remaining people were no longer a concern, so he agreed to their request for peace talks.
The peace talks were held in the imperial palace. The emperor put forward many demands, including returning all land to the public and changing the official selection system to a civil service examination system. At first, the aristocratic families disagreed and insisted on fighting to the death.
The emperor snorted coldly, "A desperate struggle? I don't believe it. I'm going to be honest with you. When Wei is well rested, do you know what the first thing I will do is?"
After finishing the task, the emperor did not wait for the people below to speak and continued: "I tell you, it is to gradually reduce agricultural taxes and even exempt them in the end. The second thing is six years of compulsory education. As long as you are a citizen of the Great Wei, six years of elementary school will be free."
"Wait until these two things are done. Who will follow you even if you rebel? Fight to the death with me? Do you think my Italian cannon is useless?!"
These words made these people depressed. Of course, the emperor also knew that the aristocratic families could not be exterminated. Killing these people would bring about other problems. What the country needed now was recuperation rather than starting a war. After that, he asked these people to hand over most of their property, dispersed them and assigned them to teach in academies.
Of course, the emperor promised to forgive past mistakes and give them the right to take the civil service exam. Finally, the emperor said, "You have been studying for generations, so you can't be worse than those who just started studying, right?"
After dealing with the aristocratic families and when the primary school started to recruit students, the heroine thought again about girls going to school and taking the civil service exam. This time the resistance was even greater than that of opening a school. The emperor and the heroine together only managed to get the officials in the court to agree to set up a girls' school, and the civil service exam was put on hold.
Jiang Yue was not surprised by this result. The construction of the Academy of Sciences had been a big help in that time, and that was because the heroine had made so many contributions. However, as the heroine's contributions became greater and greater, one day she would agree.
In the following years, the heroine's main job was still research and development. Sea ships also began to be developed. After all, the high-yield sweet potatoes, corn and potatoes were still overseas. Jiang Yue did not give out the seeds directly this time. Some things cannot be rushed. This kind of progress is a bit too big a step for a feudal dynasty.
Haven’t you seen that in Joy of Life, Fan Xian’s mother wanted to skip the feudal society directly, and she didn’t even think about whether the emperor would agree. To be honest, Jiang Yue was a little surprised that the Ninth Prince agreed to what the heroine was doing now.
After the first five-year plan, the national strength of the Wei Dynasty reached an unprecedented level. The heroine also researched sea vessels and has now gone out to sea to look for sweet potatoes.
The heroine made a lot of money by firing glass, and she cultivated crops in greenhouses that were resistant to lodging, had multiple ears, full grains, and had strong trait retention. Every time there was progress, she would give some of the good seeds to the emperor to be planted in various places. Because of the increase in grain production, the heroine's reputation became better and better, and many families set up longevity tablets for the heroine.
Last year, the ninth prince gave up after his courtship failed and went back to marry and have children. After all, there was still someone to inherit the dynasty. The next year, the ship sent out by the heroine returned, bringing back a lot of potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn seeds, and two ships of gold, silver and jewelry.
The heroine didn't want any of the gold, silver and jewelry, all of which were put into the national treasury. As for the seeds, the heroine put them in the greenhouse for breeding, and when they were almost grown, she handed them over to the emperor. After the completion of the second five-year plan, there is no agricultural tax, and the public grain system is adopted instead. After all, the emperor also has to support the army.
With his powerful army and strong soldiers, the emperor began to think about expanding his territory. In just two or three years, he dealt with the barbarians and other ethnic groups. At the same time, the emperor's reputation reached its peak.
Afterwards, the heroine was afraid that the emperor would rest on his laurels and stop making progress, so she gave the emperor a world map. When the Ninth Prince saw the world map, he was dumbfounded. He had thought that his territory was big enough, but it turned out to be only a small one. Then he summoned his trusted ministers, studied the situation, and announced it through the Central Military News. The people of Wei were furious.
With the opening of schools and literacy classes in recent years, everyone knew a few words, and the newspaper was mostly written in vernacular Chinese, and the pictures were understandable. What shocked everyone was not that there were other continents, but that the land was round.
The mainstream view now is that the sky is round and the earth is flat. When this was said, everyone was dumbfounded and asked the heroine to give an explanation. The heroine did an experiment but some people still didn't believe it. She had no choice but to make a globe. After that, it was none of her business whether others believed it or not.
The heroine doesn't have time to argue about such things, as the train is about to start its trial run. Nearly ten years later, the locomotive has finally been built. Although it is still a prototype, the most difficult stage from zero to one has passed, and all that remains is to gradually optimize it.
If nothing unexpected happens, the trial run is very successful. Now it's just a matter of gradually increasing the power and laying the railway. Da Wei is busy overhauling the railway, and the Finance Department is heartbroken by spending huge amounts of money every day. However, at this time, the little Japanese came to show off their superiority, directly robbed a ship of Da Wei, and threatened to attack Da Wei.
Isn't this just walking into a trap? While the court was still discussing how to fight, the thing engraved in the heroine's DNA had already awakened, and it directly suggested killing them all. In the end, the Minister of Finance thought it was too brutal and wasteful, and finally decided to kill all the soldiers and transport the others back to build the railway.
The heroine argued with reason and was finally persuaded by the emperor. Finally, somewhat unwillingly, she returned to the Academy of Sciences to continue her research. The ships were strong and the guns were powerful. There were many people who wanted to make contributions after years of peace. Half a year later, Japan was gone. According to the decision before the war, all the work was handed over to the Ministry of Industry to build railways.
