Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Chapter 334 Sociology
Following Zhu Di's edict, the county magistrates, magistrates, gentry, and village elders from other prefectures and counties in Beiping Prefecture also quickly gathered at Prince Yan's Mansion with maps of their various prefectures and counties that could build elementary schools.

Then, it was reviewed by Zhu Fu and Guo An, and Zhu Di also took a look.

However, these prefectures and counties do not have as many people as Wanping County and Daxing County.

Of course, there are fewer school-age children.

Therefore, only four kindergartens can be built in counties with a large number of school-age children, while only three can be built in counties with few people.

Even so, those magistrates are very satisfied, these are their achievements during their tenure.

As for those village elders and gentry, they were also full of joy.

They all knew that Shi Guoan, the head of Yan Wangfu, preferred Wanping County, and Daxing County was next.

Who made Wanping County and Daxing County the subsidiary states of Beiping City.

Now, they are very satisfied to build four or three elementary schools for their prefectures and counties.

Moreover, now on top of elementary school, there is an additional three-year elementary school, which is equivalent to Zuo Xue!
This is even more joyful for those gentry and country folk.

In this way, they will not have to invite some masters to teach their children at home after their children are enlightened.

After discussing for a while, some villagers raised their concerns.

"But Guo Changshi, with so many elementary students, can he recruit enough masters?"

"Masters who are in elementary school can enjoy the same salary and treatment as the scribes of Yan Wangfu."

"In addition, within ten years, if you have been a teacher for five years in these elementary schools, you can directly become a scribe in the Yanwangfu, or you can enjoy the same quota as the Yanwangfu scribes, and go to Korea or Japan as an official!

After ten years, anyone who has served as a tutor for three years in the Mengxu School will receive ten points when taking the exam to be a scribe in Prince Yan's Mansion! "

"Your Highness is wise!"

A group of gentry and villagers were all beaming with joy.

In this way, there will inevitably be many scholars who go to those elementary schools to become teachers.

Only a group of prefects and prefects looked hesitant, but after hesitating for a moment, those prefects and prefects slowly said: "His Royal Highness, Guo Changshi, as a result, many children and students have gone to Mengxue.

However, the state schools and county schools in each state and county are a bit of a waste. "

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Zhu Di, Guo An and others couldn't help but be stunned.

They seem to have forgotten the state school and county school of each state and county at the beginning.

"In this way, there will be at least one Mongolian school in each state and county!"

As soon as Zhu Di said this, all the gentry and villagers were shocked.

As for the magistrates of the prefectures and counties, they looked happy and looked at Zhu Di expectantly.

However, after waiting for a long time, Zhu Di had no intention of speaking again.

But those gentry and villagers could no longer bear it, their faces full of misery.

"His Royal Highness, the villages in various states and counties are far away from each other, if there are only two or three Mongolian schools in each state and county.

Those children who are far away need to walk dozens of miles to go to school. "

"Yes, Your Highness, not to mention that the country roads are dangerous, and there are also wild animals. It is such a long road. Many children walk from home to Mengxue, but it is already dark and they cannot go to school at all!"

"Your Highness, if all the children cannot be enrolled in the elementary school, then the elementary school that His Highness worked so hard to build will be a huge waste..."

"This……"

Zhu Di frowned slightly, thought for a moment, then looked at Zhu Fu who was beside him.

"Zhu Qing, there is some truth in what you gentlemen and elders said. Do the elementary schools built in Wanping County and Daxing County also have such problems?"

Hearing this, all the gentry and village elders could not help but flash a hint of complacency in their eyes.

They said this because they paid attention to the education in Wanping County and Daxing County.

Sure enough, Zhu Fu nodded slightly.

"Forgive me, Your Highness. During this period of time, I have also received several reports from those elementary school masters. Although there are some children who are far away, there are not many of them."

Zhu Di asked, "Why?"

Zhu Fu thought for a while, then said: "Your Highness, among the five elementary schools in Wanping County and Daxing County, only one is in Beiping City.

The remaining four are scattered in the village below.

Therefore, there are still fewer students in that situation! "

It should be that there are many people who are still waiting and watching, and dare not let their children go to school at will, right?

Guo An complained silently in his heart.

"I see!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, and couldn't help but say: "Is it possible that four or five elementary schools need to be built in other prefectures and counties?"

With previous experience and lessons learned, Zhu Fu quickly said: "His Royal Highness, I think that we should consider the situation of the people in each state and county before deciding how many schools to build!"

The faces of the gentry and villagers immediately beamed with joy.

However, Zhu Di looked at Guo An aside and felt that the matter was not as simple as Zhu Fu thought.

"I don't know if Guo Qing has a good solution to this matter?"

Guo An pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Your Highness, I feel that we should convert elementary studies into social studies!"

"Sociology?"

Zhu Di, Zhu Fu and others were stunned for a moment, and then their eyes lit up.

Guo An had already spoken: "In the 23rd year of the Yuan Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty, the court of the Yuan Dynasty issued an order: every county-affiliated village should have fifty households as a community, with a president to teach and encourage farmers and mulberry trees, and to set up a school. Therefore, teachers were selected who were familiar with the scriptures, and their children were sent to school during the off-season.

At that time, Jiangxi, Fujian and other places began to establish sociology. "

Guo Andao: "It's just that sociology is the most basic elementary school in every township, and it is difficult for the imperial court to supervise it.

Therefore, many officials and gentry used sociology to poison the people. The children of the people had to pay extra money, chicken rice, wine and food, and even extra labor.

Enabling the offspring of those common people to study sociology is like hard labor. "" In the eighth year of Hongwu, His Majesty also ordered the establishment of social schools in the world. It was also in accordance with the former Yuan system. Every 15 counties in each state set up a social school to enroll folk children aged [-] to [-].

However, since ancient times, officials and squires like to exploit and oppress the people to squeeze money.

It is difficult for the social studies to be built in an all-round way like the county schools, and His Majesty's thoughts on the construction of the social studies have also faded a lot. "

"As for the Beiping Mansion, His Highness also knows that the Beiping Mansion has been ruined so badly by Bei Yuan that even the King of Zhongshan ruled Beiping for many years under His Majesty's order, and many people moved from Shanxi and Shandong to restore Beiping's vitality.

Therefore, until now, Peking Mansion has not built a social school. "

In front of them, Guo An said that officials, gentry and villagers like to exploit and exploit the people.

All the officials, gentry and villagers could not help but feel embarrassed.

But no one justified.

This is a fact. If Beiping Mansion hadn't been oppressed by King Yan's Mansion, and Chang Shi Guo An led them to make money, they would not be able to help oppressing some people.

In fact, it is not only easy to exploit and squeeze the people, but also there is no need to worry about the consequences.

However, now, they have not exploited the people for many years.

Zhu Di asked thoughtfully: "So, Guo Qing plans to start a sociology?"

"Your Highness is wise!"

Guo An nodded in response.

Hearing this, all the officials, gentry and villagers couldn't help but look overjoyed.

"It's not impossible!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Your Highness is merciful!"

A group of officials, gentry and villagers immediately stood up excitedly and bowed their hands to Zhu Di.

Guo An looked at a group of officials and gentry and villagers, and asked slowly: "Do you also want my Yanwang Mansion to run a social school?"

All the state and county magistrates, gentry and village elders couldn't help but be startled and noticed something was wrong.

However, facing the temptation of that sociology, he still nodded subconsciously.

Guo An's face straightened, and he said solemnly: "The Sociology, His Royal Highness King Yan agreed to build it. However, the Sociology was built by my Yanwang Mansion, so I will not let you officials and gentry and villagers use the Sociology, but Go exploit the people."

Hearing this, the faces of all the prefects, county magistrates, gentry and villagers suddenly changed, and they quickly promised.

"Please rest assured, His Royal Highness King Yan, Zhu Changshi and Guo Changshi, the officials and others are definitely not like those corrupt officials in Qianyuan who wantonly exploited the people!"

"The villains and others are also kind families, and they will never bully the neighbors!"

Guo An stared at the gentry and villagers for a while, then said slowly, "This is what you said!"

All the prefects, county magistrates, gentry and village elders nodded quickly.

Guo An said again: "In this way, all the masters of the Sociology established by His Royal Highness King Yan do not need to serve any corvee, and you should treat them with respect and courtesy.

At the same time, neither those masters nor you are allowed to collect tax money, chicken rice, wine and food from the people without authorization, and you are not allowed to indulge the children of your family, relying on the wealth and strength of the family to oppress the children of the poor people at will.

I wonder if you can do this? "

"Please rest assured, His Royal Highness King Yan and Guo Changshi, the villain and others will definitely obey the orders of King Yan's Mansion!"

A group of gentry and village elders responded quickly.

"Very good!"

Guo An nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Zhu Di, "Your Highness, I don't know if this is feasible?"

"Can!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, then slowly glanced at the prefects and counties, as well as the gentry and villagers, and said in a low voice: "What Guo Qing is worried about, we remember that it happened in Jiangxi and Fujian.

For this reason, my father was furious. Good things are hard to come by!

We also know about your good deeds in recent years.

However, in some good houses, there will always be some bad guys.

Therefore, after the social school is built, we will send people to secretly inspect it from time to time.If anyone finds out that anyone dares to use sociology to bully the common people and masters of sociology, we will not forgive them lightly! "

"Please rest assured, His Highness King Yan, if there is a scum in the villain's family, no matter how severely His Highness punishes, we will never complain at all!"

A group of gentry and villagers said quickly.

"Ok!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, then looked at Guo An again.

"Does Guo Qing have any suggestions?"

Guo An said: "His Royal Highness, in this way, there must be many masters of sociology that my Prince Yan's Mansion will recruit.

There should also be rewards and punishments for those social studies masters. Since they enjoy the treatment of our scribes in Prince Yan's palace, then those masters who commit adultery or violate laws or teach poorly should also be expelled, and severe cases should be severely punished! "

"Can!"

Zhu Di nodded.

Guo Andao: "In addition, the knowledge taught in sociology should be in accordance with the regulations of the previous court.

Enlightenment should be "San Zi Jing", "Hundred Surnames", "Thousand Characters" and so on.

After the enlightenment is completed, you should learn the Four Books and Five Classics, history, arithmetic and other knowledge. You should also read the "Imperial Imperial Edict", the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and some etiquette such as crowns, weddings, funerals, and sacrifices! "

"In addition, students who are not from social studies are not allowed to enter county schools and state schools, let alone academies!"

"Can!"

Zhu Di nodded again.

Regarding this, Zhu Fu looked at Guo An in astonishment. Is this the same Guo An who knew nothing but artisanship and arithmetic?
