Talent pool?

This fresh word made Zhu Di stunned for a long time, put down the pen in his hand, and asked Dusk in confusion: "Hasn't the imperial examination made all the talents in the world go into the world?" ”

I knew that Zhu Di would be like this at dusk, after all, in the eyes of people in this era, those who have studied for the imperial examination are talents.

However, who knows that to promote social progress, most of the current scholars really did not play any role, they all went to become officials, and there are very few people who are really engaged in industry and science.

Shaking his head, "Wechen is not talking about such talents. ”

Zhu Di asked rhetorically, "Where are there any talents?" ”

Dusk thought about it, "Like Shen Xili, a commercial bank in the Weichen era, a few other management henchmen trained by others, are talents, they have promoted the development of social economy, like the old Li Ji of Weichen Zhongshan Workshop brought out a few technical backbones, are talents, they have promoted the progress of industrial technology, there are many such talents, like Lin Zhendong, who was recently invited by Weichen to be in charge of the suburban cement factory, is also a talent." ”

Industry is an important pillar of today's society.

Zhu Di was dumbfounded, and asked after a while: "According to what you say, none of the important ministers of my court are considered talents?" ”

Dusk was speechless, Zhu Di, you are drilling the horns of the bull, and sighed: "Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty under your rule is like a big ship, sailing in the ocean, and all the people in the world are the flood of the ocean, and you are the owner of the big ship, the important ministers in the court, are the many prominent positions on the big ship, and the talents that Wei Chen said are the sailors, they are under your leadership, under the command of those prominent ministers, they are pushing Your Majesty's Daming Shenzhou forward. ”

The analogy is apt.

In fact, it was born in the Tang Dynasty that the water can carry the boat and capsize the boat.

Zhu Di was still puzzled, "It's true that Shen Xili is a talent, but it's just a business, Lao Li of your Zhongshan Workshop, I have also heard of it, but a craftsman, how can He De promote my progress in the Ming Dynasty." ”

Although he is an emperor through the ages, some concepts are still outdated.

This is the limitation of the times.

Dusk asked His Majesty, "What if there are 10,000, 100,000, and a million people like Lao Li in the Ming Dynasty?" If they are all over all walks of life, with their continuous efforts, and under the needs of the times, maybe the Ming Dynasty under His Majesty's rule will really appear in a picture that we can't imagine. ”

I can imagine it, because I've been through it.

But you Zhu Di definitely can't think of it.

Zhu Di fell into silence, he really couldn't imagine how much change these craftsmen could bring to the Ming Dynasty, and after thinking about it, the original intention of Dusk was to build a talent pool for the country and the people, so he didn't weigh the pros and cons for the time being, and asked him how to implement it first.

Dusk is also a sudden attack, and there is no detailed plan.

After thinking about it, he said weakly: "It can be like this, the official register, but all those who have extremely strong experience and ability in certain industries, are recorded, and the official distribution of grain, and the establishment of a guild hall, special management of this matter, and these people can include not only my Ming people, but also because of the foreign visitors." ”

Tolerance is great.

Of course, the development of society is always closely related to productivity, plus the relationship between demand, this is not in a hurry, you can take your time, use your knowledge and the resources you get from Zhu Di, and slowly promote it.

It is difficult to push the feudal dynasty to a higher level on your own.

But there is hope for the efforts of the whole people.

And what I want to do is to provide light and direction for those skilled craftsmen and scientific talents of this era, and shelter them from the wind and rain along the way.

What I do is to let an era enter the twilight and let myself hang the sky to become the dawning star of the new era!

It's the ultimate that a traverser can do.

For example, in the case of firearms, with his existing knowledge and ability, he could not promote its improvement before, and he really relied on the group of people from the Ordnance Academy Hong Jilai.

If the military has a need, they can have a purpose, so as to continuously promote the advancement of firearms.

So, talent.

A large number of talents from all walks of life are the key to promoting the progress of the times.

When Zhu Di heard that he wanted to build two guild halls, this was not expensive, but it was a big expense to distribute grain, and asked: "According to your plan, how many people will the two talent pools probably accept?" ”

If you can't move tens of thousands of people, the treasury will be a little difficult to support after years of grain, the key is that Zhu Di can't see the benefits that the talent pool will bring to Daming now.

In other words, in Zhu Di's eyes, this is a matter of investment that cannot be seen for the time being.

Dusk thought for a while, "With the current situation of our Daming, the two talent pools can absorb two or three thousand people at most, this is the extreme, no matter how many, there are not so many talents." ”

Daming is limited by the restrictions of the times, there are not many people who have the conditions and can have the courage to study industry without studying, and most of them have the conditions to study, so the so-called talents should be some people who have been engaged in living in all walks of life for many years.

For example, Zhongshan Workshop Lao Li is like this.

But how many such people are there, even if there is a germ of capitalism in the Ming Dynasty, the status of businessmen is still very low, let alone doing business.

After all, it was a feudal era when the economy relied on agriculture.

Zhu Di calculated the account slightly and asked, "Then have you calculated how much grain you need in a year?" ”

In fact, there is not much grain, if this is counted as coins, it is probably only one tael of silver, but if it is 3,000 people, it means that it will cost 3,000 taels a month, which is not a small amount in a year.

Ten years, twenty years, this account will have to be settled.

Dusk knew that this matter was indeed a bit too advanced for Zhu Di, and he didn't dare to expect him to undertake this matter alone, after all, once this matter was implemented, the opposition above the court would be extremely huge, and the greater opposition would be among the people.

Xiucai's monthly grain is only one tael of silver.

You craftsmen can get one or two a month, what will those showmen think?

So money is not an issue for this matter.

The problem is to suppress these objections - this can only be done by Zhu Di.

Or another way: run these two halls privately.

So he said to Zhu Di: "Gold is valuable, talent is priceless, Wechen thinks that at this time, the merit is at the moment, the benefit is also at the moment, and it can be more beneficial in the future, so Wechen is willing to share the expenses of these two talent pools with His Majesty, in addition, if His Majesty is worried about the opposition of the court and the people, His Majesty can pay in his private name, and the money will be transferred to the name of Weichen, and then Wechen will handle this matter, this matter will become a private operation, and the opposition between the government and the opposition will be nameless. ”

Zhu Di was stunned.

He began to think that Dusk wanted to use this talent pool to do business, so he instigated himself to do it, and he sat at Dusk to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

And now he is willing to pay?

Zhu Di was moved.

There seems to be no bad thing about the money at dusk, such as editing the whole book, such as Zheng He's trip to the West, and now he has to pay for two talent pools, can this matter really be as Dusk thinks, and the impact is comparable to the editing of the whole book?
