We have fought to the Arctic Circle, and you want me to inherit the throne?

"Hmm, Fengguo University." Li Che murmured to himself, his heart full of anticipation.

Fengguo University is not just a school, it is a collection of Li Che's memories of his past life.

It is an extremely important part of Li Che's plan. The advanced ideas and technologies of the previous life will be carried forward here and become the spark of civilization.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Li Che did not regard it as an ordinary school, but as an all-round campus at the level of later universities.

There are not only classrooms for teaching, but also teaching buildings, laboratory buildings, playgrounds, infirmaries and other facilities; the teaching content is not only the Four Books and Five Classics, but also practical knowledge such as mathematics, chemistry, physics, and medicine.

In this world, whether it is the Imperial College of the imperial court, the local prefectural schools, or the private schools of the aristocratic families, they will be far smaller in scale than Fengguo University, and may even be crushed to pieces.

After all, Li Che, who came from later generations, knew one thing clearly - education is the foundation of a country!

"This matter requires serious consideration by the king. Masters are the foundation of education. Fengguo University does not need corrupted scholars who are only familiar with a few classics and historical texts."

"On the contrary, if someone has real talent and knowledge, even if they are experienced and authoritative in farming, they can become a university professor."

Li Che looked at the courtiers and said, "You all, if you have any ideas about a certain subject, you can come and apply for a teaching position with me."

Seeing that everyone was indifferent, Li Che began to call out names:

"For example, Chen Gui, you work with gunpowder all day long, so you have a deep understanding of chemistry. You can definitely teach at a university and pass on your knowledge to more people."

Chen Gui was stunned for a moment, then looked embarrassed: "Your Highness, I really can't handle everything in two places."

"Hey, I'm not asking you to teach every day. You can spare two hours a week to teach two classes."

Li Che was not planning to tie these teachers down at Fengguo University. After all, they were all top talents and would definitely shine in other fields. Teaching was just a side job.

Just like university professors in previous lives, they not only undertake teaching tasks, but also engage in scientific research and academics. Some people even have their own companies.

There is a saying in later generations: Your university teacher may very well be the most powerful person you will ever meet in your life.

This statement is biased, but it also makes some sense. After all, the vast majority of people are ordinary people.

Li Che also planned to wait until the university officially opened, and after the first batch of students entered the school, he would be responsible for teaching two or three courses.

Not only did he realize his dream of becoming a teacher, but he also gave his students the identity of "Wang's disciples" and strengthened the relationship between himself and his students.

What Li Che thought of was naturally what other officials also thought of, and most people were eager to try it out.

Judging from how much importance His Highness attaches to this university, Fengguo University will inevitably become an important source of talents for Fengguo in the future, and the students of Fengguo University can basically be regarded as reserve officials.

If you can become a teacher for this group of prospective officials, it will be of great help to their careers.

"Okay, everyone, take your time to think about it. There's no rush."

Li Che straightened his aching waist slightly and looked at the people below the stage: "Now that you have reported to me, it is my turn to say something to you."

Hearing what Li Che said, everyone immediately became alert, and even those sleepy old officials opened their eyes wide.

"It's a new year again, and Fengguo is thriving. Its rise is unstoppable! You are all the backbone of our Fengguo. The future development of Fengguo depends on you!"

"I have three things to do, which can also be said to be the national policy of Fengguo for the next year. I hope you can help me."

Li Che stood up slowly. He had already thought about these things thousands of times in his mind, and there was no need to write them down in a small notebook like Zhuge Zhe.

Just listen to him talk:

"This one thing: increasing revenue! Stockpiling food! Strengthening the army! Building walls!" Li Che grinned. "It sounds like four things, but in fact, I want everyone to understand that although Feng State is becoming increasingly powerful, it is by no means complacent."

"The Korean Peninsula hasn't completely surrendered yet. The Heishui Mohe tribe is still causing chaos around Feng State, and the Khitan and Shiwei still have 100,000 soldiers! Feng State is far from ready to let its horses go to the mountains and its weapons be stored away!"

Everyone bowed and said in unison: "Your Highness, we will follow your instructions."

The ministers below the stage had no change in their expressions, but each had their own thoughts in their minds.

Most of the military generals were happy, while some relatively conservative civil officials were a little worried.

After all, His Highness is still young and enjoys military matters. I just hope he understands that those who love war will perish, and refrain from being too radical.

Li Che nodded slightly and continued, "The second thing."

"This king intends to build a new city where the Dalian Corps is located and construct a port within the city."

"At the same time, hire skilled craftsmen to build ships. Big ships, the kind that can cross the ocean!"

"Once the fleet is built, I will establish Dafeng's navy. It's a navy, not a navy. An invincible fleet capable of fighting across the oceans!"

As soon as this statement came out, all the ministers were in an uproar.

This was not something that had been discussed in advance, and even the two chief secretaries, Huo Duanxiao and Zhuge Zhe, were unaware of it.

Li Che pointed at the crowd and said, "Qi Qing, come out and say hello to everyone."

Qi Fang did not dare to neglect and quickly stepped out of the group, bowing to everyone around him and saying, "Qi Fang, greetings to all my colleagues."

"This man was originally a doctor in the Ministry of Works. In his early years, he supervised the construction of warships in Jiangnan. He is quite knowledgeable about shipbuilding. In the future, he will be responsible for port and fleet affairs."

Hearing what Li Che said, the ministers did not dare to be negligent and returned the greetings one after another.

Given His Highness's character, if he wants to build a ship, it's definitely not a small-scale project of just building a few or three.

This Doctor Qi has no foundation in Feng State now, but once the shipbuilding starts, he will immediately become the person who holds the top power in Feng State.

"As for the money issue, don't worry, I will find a way to solve it."

Li Che looked at the generals who were hesitant to speak, and said with a smile: "I have already found the candidate for the commander of the navy, and he will be in Chaoyang City soon."

Seeing that Li Che had arranged it so well, the ministers understood that this thing must be done and it was useless to persuade him.

Although they did not understand Li Che's deeper meaning, the ministers did not rush to express their objections.

This is because Li Che has so many incredible military achievements that he has such authority.

If it were another vassal king who suddenly came up with such a bizarre idea, he would have been criticized to pieces by his subordinates.

Even Emperor Qing couldn't make a decision on such a big matter on his own.

"This last thing is also the most important thing."

Li Che paused, his expression becoming serious: "Fengguo needs to reform, and it is a comprehensive reform of the military system, official system, and laws!"

This time, everyone finally couldn't help it.

The discussion suddenly broke out, as if it was about to lift the roof off the lobby.
