The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 405
Yang Shiqi was drunk.

He didn't drink much, and he wouldn't be so drunk with his drinking capacity.

But he was drunk.

In front of enthusiastic local people, he even cried.

Such a good place, such good people, but it won't last long, and it will be broken in the end, Yang Shiqi is very sure.

But now, how he wished that he was not so smart and knew so much.

Then there would be no sadness now.

"It seems that the husband doesn't drink much. Please don't persuade him to drink. He has two extra bites of food. The rest room has been prepared. The bedding is useless after washing."

The old man of the master's house spoke, and the rest dared not mention drinking.

Yang Shiqi cried and went back to the room.

This is the world in the book, the highest state of Confucianism, the great harmony of the world.

He finally saw it.

But he was afraid.

Because I am afraid that these polite people will finally usher in a tragic blow, what a pain it is.

Yes.

Yang Shiqi no longer doubts that a family can plant a hundred acres of land.

Not only can they plant one hundred acres of land, but they can also happily plant one hundred acres of land, without having to work with their lives like before.

But how can there be so many fields in the world.

"Peking wants to train the people to become landlords, but there are only more than 7000 households in the entire Ming Dynasty."

"What will happen to those who have no land in the end?"

Yang Shiqi, who hadn't slept all night, had red and swollen eyes the next morning. People didn't blame him, but worried about whether the hospitality was not good enough.

Although we only had contact with him for a short time, this foreigner was a learned man, and the common people believed him deeply.

The common people respect the learned people very much, even if they are robbers, many of them will treat them with three points of courtesy.

"Mr. came by coincidence. Today is the planned day to go to the food point to pay the food. Are you interested?"

Yang Shiqi nodded.

Although I don't know what the grain point is, but as the name suggests, it should be the place where the government collects grain taxes.

"How much food do you have to pay?"

The young man smiled and said, "Except for keeping rations and planting grain, everything will be handed over."

Yang Shiqi was taken aback.

"Is there such an absurd tax?"

"No." The young man quickly shook his hand: "It's going to the food station to exchange food tickets."

The young man explained it carefully.

It turned out to be the case.

Yang Shiqi has seen food stamps in Beiping, and many merchants like to collect food stamps, and even instructed Yang Shiqi to go to the food stamp bank to exchange food stamps.

He knew that food stamps were precious banknotes, and the difference from them was that the common people were unwilling to use them, while the people of Peiping were willing to use them.

The owner's family is moving the grain to the truck.

Outside the gate of the courtyard stood an ox cart and a horse cart, filled with dozens of sacks, which were full of grain.

"One trip can't be finished, you have to go back and forth twice."

Yang Shiqi offered to help carry it, but the owner couldn't stop him, so he said to Yang Shiqi with a smile.

"Don't you feel bad about sending out so much food?"

"What do you feel bad about?"

"There is so much food at home, and we need to keep out moisture and worry about rats and ants. It's better to replace it with food stamps as soon as possible."

There is a grain point for every twenty wells.

At the grain point.

There are many vehicles at the gate, all of which are here to deliver food.

The staff at the grain point will conduct spot checks, insert hollow thin brazing into sacks, bring out some grains for inspection, and weigh them after confirming that there is no problem with the quality.

After weighing, the people who delivered the grain carried it to the granary and stacked it neatly according to the instructions of the staff.

Then the stamped list will be signed by the farmer and made in triplicate.

One month later, farmers can rely on the list to go to the food stamp bank to receive food stamps, or directly deposit them in the bank.

"Meow."

The raccoon cat in Liangdian, with a big mouse in its mouth, looked at the Twolegs majestically, and raised its head proudly.

The raccoon cat bred by the ancestors is only found in China. It is the easiest to raise and does not disturb human habitation. It is also a good mouse catcher.

He is not suitable as a pet, but suitable as a helper for people.

After Yang Shiqi helped carry it, this stranger was introduced, and everyone knew that he was from Jiangxi.

Everyone was very polite and saluted Yang Shiqi.

This gentleman has great knowledge, but is still willing to work, and has won the greatest respect from the people.

Yang Shiqi and the staff of Liangdian asked.

"The grain point is not open all the time. After we finish our work here, we will go to the grain shop to work."

"Isn't it true that grain merchants have no way out?"

"The grain merchant has changed his career."

"The little prince said that food is the foundation of the world, and it must be in the hands of the government just like energy."

"As long as the food supply is stable, industrial development can advance by leaps and bounds without worrying about a collapse."

Yang Shiqi thought about these words and had more questions.

The staff of Liangdian blushed quickly and explained: "These are the words we learned during the training, and I don't understand the deeper meaning."

"Peking has a lot of training."

"That's right, teachers need training, workers need training, business people need training, soldiers need training too, and officials need training. It says to reach a unified standard and keep it above the level."

……

There are so many smart people in the world.

Since receiving the secret letter from Ying Tianfu, but since the public opinion in the world has changed, not only businessmen have recruited many migrant workers from the south, but also many scholars have come to Peiping for study tours.

Ancient scholars did not study hard in their hometowns. Study tours are the tradition of the ancestors.

Including many famous people in history, you can see that they had the experience of studying abroad when they were young.

The way of study tour is even more advocated in modern society.

Many schools will organize students to go out.

Especially in developed countries, students will have various group outings to increase their social knowledge.

In ancient China, study tours have been around for thousands of years.

The sociology that arose in the Ming Dynasty was a sign of civilization and prosperity. Unfortunately, it disappeared in the Qing Dynasty. It was not until the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom slaughtered all the cities in the south that the Han people in the south resumed their ancient traditions.

The local gentry began to restore sociology spontaneously. A large number of folk sociology provided countless scholars in the south, which provided soil for progressive youth.

It was those progressive young people who threw their heads and blood to wake up this conquered and sleeping country.

The 300-year period of ignorance has allowed future generations to repay the debt for a hundred years, and they are still repaying the debt.

Zhu Gaochi actually tends to trust the content of the secret letter, but he has read too much history, so he has to guard against it.

Just like Mao Wenlong.

Until his death, he never thought that Yuan Chonghuan would kill him in disregard of the rules.

Harmfulness is not allowed, and defensiveness is indispensable.

Now that I have mastered the strategic initiative, I will not give up my advantages, but if this is the case, then how to quickly develop Shanxi is the top priority at the moment.

Military buildup has slowed.

The benefits of military industry are suspended, but the impetus for industrialization cannot disappear.

Now that the military industry can no longer be counted on, let's count on education.

Minister of Education Zhang Fu came to Shizifu.

"There are [-] new-style schools in Beiping Province so far, with a total of more than [-] primary and middle school students."

"Currently full-year students, the highest has read the first grade of middle school, and will enter the second grade of middle school next year."

After listening to Zhang Fu's report, Zhu Gaochi said: "Last year you proposed to expand investment in education, but because of military considerations, it was not approved by me."

"You have also read Ying Tianfu's secret letter, so I am considering suspending the military construction."

Zhang Fu was happy.

Fang Kuan and Chen Heng's faces were ugly.

The smile doesn't disappear, it just transfers from one face to another.

But on the whole, the civil and military officials present were very excited.

"Military development is definitely important, but economic development is also crucial. Judging from the current military strength, it is even more urgent to prioritize the development of economic construction."

"And economic construction requires a large number of talents, more new talents, talents that meet social needs."

With three talents in a row, the people present already understood that the little prince valued the school more than the prefecture school, state school, or county school.

"Of course, the prosperity of government schools, state schools, and county schools has provided many talents that can be cultivated for the road of industrialization."

"Without the foundation laid by these schools, we need at least 20 years of development to produce enough teachers."

"Next, schools in Beiping, Daning, Kaiping, Jinzhou, and Shaanxi will be established, and more qualified teachers will be recruited from prefectural and prefectural schools."

"The teacher rating system still needs to be strictly checked so that only those who meet the standards of the new school can enter the school as teachers."

The most important thing in school is the teacher.

In the early Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang had the foundation, whether it was the literacy rate of the people or the scholars, they had enough background.

This is the fundamental reason why many talents can use Zhu Gaochi's road to industrialization.

Otherwise, it will take 20 years to train teachers alone.

Today's scholars only need to be trained, and many of them can become teachers in new-style schools, which ensures the rapid development of the teaching industry.

On the contrary, building teaching buildings is not a difficult problem. As long as the funds are sufficient, there are as many as you want.

"This subordinate has a proposal." Zhang Fu said seriously.

"Tell me."

"Actually, it's not just the idea of ​​the subordinates. Over the years, the construction of the new school has had many good phenomena, but there are also many shortcomings."

"Many gentlemen believe that the current modern school's workload is too heavy, which is not conducive to the progress of students."

"After many people's discussions, it is believed that professional courses should be reduced, social courses should be strengthened, and universities should be established."

Zhu Gaochi became interested in Zhang Fu's proposal.

University must be done.

But I didn't expect the people below to bring it up.

"After three years of middle school, the graduating children are already 15 years old. In the name of social studies, they will flow into the army, factories, schools, etc., pass the assessment of social studies, and finally become key training reserve talents."

"Many of the content taught in the school is unnecessary, and it wastes children's time."

"So build a university, form a complete high-quality, more detailed discipline, and let those children who show their talents in all aspects enter the university."

"Ordinary children should strengthen their social studies."

Zhu Gaochi hesitated.

in short.

Primary and secondary schools reduce professional courses and focus on outdoor courses to strengthen the cultivation of social abilities, while universities cultivate gifted children.

There are two sides to things, there are advantages and disadvantages.

"This matter is related to the foundation of education and needs to be carefully considered. You can convene the gentlemen of all schools to brainstorm and form the final educational concept plan."

Zhu Gaochi didn't dare to make decisions randomly, and finally decided to let the sages discuss it.

The original plan was to train every child as a college student.

The plan proposed now is to only train truly gifted children, students who are able to bloom their talents independently under low-level professional courses, as college students.
