Hongwu Survival Guide

After the first meeting of the first 'three-year plan', various related investigations and filling in details followed.

Of course, they are all concepts proposed by Zhu Yuan.

Zhu Yuan himself was not idle. Some associations around this meeting took three full days without leaving the house, brainstorming, and writing a thick memorial of many things he could think of and handing it to the old man. Zhu, then turned to others.

The time also came to the end of November in the first year of Hongwu.

Winter month twenty-two.

On my way to Jinling University in the morning, I happened to bump into Xu Chunren, the president of the National University, arguing with Tao An.

The reason is also simple, competing for students.

The establishment of the national university was decided by Lao Zhu himself, which is exactly the same as Jinling University, with 16 majors.

According to Lao Zhu's original words, it is still Zhu Yuan's concept, which can promote competition.Lao Zhu also hopes that the two universities can have healthy competition.

Of course, Zhu Yuan wanted to carry out the instructions of his ancestors. Seeing that the two gentlemen had all kinds of yin and yang, he could only dissuade them.He also mentioned that it has been proposed to His Majesty the emperor that next year, there will be another imperial examination.

This is also because there are not enough students.

Just recently, because of the insertion of the National University, the division of various departments of the imperial court, and...Tao An's previous judgment has also become a reality, many scholars are dissatisfied with the imperial court for making them only ordinary officials who are not high-end. As a result, the 16 majors of Jinling University originally planned to enroll 500 students for each major, but now the number has directly dropped to 200.

No surrender.

The purpose of limiting a single major to 200 is to prevent too many students from congregating in certain 'popular majors', and to allow a more even distribution of students who are not many after various allocations.

However, the result was that... they couldn't choose a suitable major, and some students would rather give up their picks than study 'civil engineering', 'metallurgy', 'water conservancy' and the like.

Think it's cheap.

When Lao Zhu heard the news, he almost lost his temper, but fortunately he was persuaded by Zhu Yuan.

Twisted melon...

Ok.

This is really neither sweet nor thirst quenching.

After all, if you force people to come in, if you don't do anything and respond negatively, it is tantamount to delaying things.

Whether they are unwilling to serve as officials or to study, these people do not understand that a new era has arrived.Now is a critical period for re-determining the pyramid structure of Chinese society in the next century or even millennium. If we stand in time, the bottom of the tower now can become the top of the tower in the future.

And once you miss it, the current spire will not take 100 years or decades, but it may fall to the bottom of the tower in the Hongwu dynasty.

Just one.

Scholars of all kinds think that they have mastered the knowledge and have rare goods to live in. However, they probably ignore that this series of universities has enrolled thousands of students just this year.If these students are forced to use them, they will be able to become officials within a year.

The imperial court has people who can use it, why do they still miss you?

However, Zhu Yuan did not intend to waste his time explaining this.

Not that energy.

Whatever you choose is fate.

Anyway, Zhu Yuan didn't intend to be generous this time, for those who have dropped the pick, the files have already been left behind, and in the future, don't even think about having a second chance.

After mediating the dispute between the two principals and dismissing Xu Chunren, Zhu Yuan and the management team of Jinling University started their day's work.

Basically trivial.

Sorting candidates, arranging courses, building more school buildings, and so on.

Speaking of which, regarding the management, apart from Tao An and Qian Tang, the principal and deputy principals, Tu Xiao's father Tu Bi, the surveying and mapping envoy who came to deliver books a few days ago, was also transferred here by Zhu Yuan.

Of course, Lao Zhu approved it.

After Zhu Yuan mentioned it, His Majesty the Emperor personally summoned Tu Bi. After some questioning, he felt that his knowledge was acceptable. In addition, his son was already at the third rank, and his father was at the eighth rank. Secretary of the job.

Si Yeben was the adjutant of Guozixue's sacrificial wine, and his duty was to assist in the management of Guozixue's daily work.

It's about the same this time.

Tao An was in charge of the overall situation, Qian Tang was in charge of teaching and learning, and Tu Bi was in charge of daily life.

As for the title of the post, apart from the fact that the principal did not continue to use sacrificial wine, Zhu Yuan did not innovate too much.For example, teachers, Zhu Yuan didn't make out the word 'professor', after all, it doesn't sound very serious. According to the official position, it is still 'doctor', 'teaching assistant', 'xuezheng' and so on, the actual address between teachers and students in daily life It is not called an official position, but more similar to the later 'Mr.' and 'Student'.

In addition to Tu Bi, Fang Guozhen's third son, Fang Xing, greeted Zhu Yuan, Fang Guozhen went to beg Lao Zhu himself, and got approval to transfer here.

However, Lao Zhu felt that Fang Xing was still a little younger. The previous Hanlin Academy was a seventh-rank editor, but at Jinling University, his official position was changed to a doctorate, and his rank was still a seventh-rank.

Lao Zhu also asked Fang Xing to choose a major by the way and complete 100 credits.

The Fang family has no objection to this.

Fang Xing is only 22 years old this year, and Fang Guozhen also felt that the youngest son was still young and was not in a hurry, so she came to consult Zhu Yuan in person again, and decisively chose an 'economics major' for her son.

In addition to these, some scholars with outstanding achievements in the imperial examination and their qualifications and reputation were also selected and awarded positions. Dr. Pin, Zhu Yuan arranged for him to be in charge of the art major.

It is equivalent to the dean of the art academy later.

Coupled with the transfer from various ministries of the imperial court, a total of 16 doctorates of the seventh rank have been identified recently, which happen to be in charge of 16 majors.

Fang Xing also counts.

Moreover, Fang Xing is not the youngest doctor, the youngest is Chang Yu, the son of Chang Duan, the current commander of the Haizuo Guard of the third-rank battalion.This time, with the excellent grades of 80 points in policy theory and 100 points in mathematics, and of course the bonus of being from a meritorious family, he was directly awarded a doctor of the seventh rank by Lao Zhu.

Chang Yu chose "Chemistry Major", which is also a very precise choice.

Zhu Yuan has no objection to this, and is happy to see it succeed.

First of all, when the school is just established, everything is in a state of groping, so it doesn't matter age and qualifications, just like Fang Xing and Chang Yu, two doctors, although they are officials, they have to study and study together with the students in the future. Let’s establish their respective majors together, and even complete 100 credits together.

Secondly, apart from being regarded as high-level intellectuals in this era, the family background of the two also confirmed that they had the qualifications to be directly awarded officials.

Is it fair?
Isn't it fair?

Zhu Yuan didn't bother with this.

Moreover, Zhu Yuan believed that most of the students would also agree with this arrangement and would not think there was any problem.

This is also the reality of this age.

Busy so trivially, near noon, when Zhu Yuan was about to leave, an official from the editorial department of "Daming Monthly" set up on the campus of Jinling University hurried over and said that it was the printing office, and it was also the same. The supporting unit here, over there... two booksellers fought for the last batch of "Da Ming Monthly" to be printed.

After Zhu Yuan heard this, he was not angry and almost laughed.

This is hilarious.

Come here today, the beginning is a quarrel, the end is a fight, wonderful.

This has to be seen!
