Chapter 140: The New Deal of the Empire
"Your Majesty, Yan Yingyuan asks to see you."
Zhu Youxiao had just walked around the Royal Academy of Sciences, and before he walked out of the gate, a general of the Guards came to report.
"Oh? Pass him in. ”
He turned and sat down in a nearby gazebo.
After a while, Yan Yingyuan, who was dressed in a big red python robe, came to Zheng in the pavilion under the leadership of a guard military officer
After the salute, Yan Yingyuan said with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, the Guozijian and the Hanlin Academy, according to your instructions, have been removed from the capital. ”
"All the prisoners and students were sent to those mines for labor reform."
He deeply knew that from the moment of banning the Guozijian and the Hanlin Academy, those scholars in the past were basically eliminated by the new Ming Dynasty.
"Well, you did a good job."
Zhu Youxiao has long been very impatient with those pretentious scholars.
The evidence obtained this time shows that the great conspiracy of Xuanfu Town, most of the students of the Guozijian and the Hanlin Academy, is one of them.
Have only oneself to blame!
Zhu Youxiao scolded secretly, and he didn't think about it anymore, he was concerned about another thing.
"Yan Yingyuan, the Imperial Education Department of the Ming Empire, how is it organized."
This royal ministry of education is a substitute for him after he banned the Guozijian and the Hanlin Academy.
However, the scale of the Ming Imperial Education Department is much more formal than the original education department of the Ming Empire.
"Back to Your Majesty, the Ministry of Education has been preliminarily formed."
A hint of surprise flashed in Yan Yingyuan's eyes, and he said, "The Ministry of Education is going to establish three universities in the capital this year, and three middle schools will be established in the capitals of each state capital. ”
"In the rest of the towns, there are more than three schools."
"Among them, we have implemented compulsory education for a period of five years. Children over the age of six, male and female, can enrol at no charge, including three meals a day. ”
"The acceptance rate in middle school is one percent of the school. The same free education, including food and lodging, is free of charge for a period of three years. ”
"The admission rate of the three universities in the capital is also one percent of that of all middle schools, not only is education free, but also a basic salary can be received every month, and the monthly tentative salary is three taels of silver, which is the same as that of ordinary military fever."
"Graduates of the university must enter the Royal Academy of Sciences to work, and the monthly salary is the same as that of an army officer."
"In addition, scientific researchers are rated every year, and those who are outstanding will be doubled for each level of promotion."
Yan Yingyuan also couldn't imagine that His Majesty the Emperor would attach so much importance to education, and this stroke was a little too big.
Universal five-year compulsory education in all the territories of the empire?
If this came out of someone else's mouth, Yan Yingyuan would definitely scold him for being insane!
It's just a square night!
However, now that this Fang Ye Tan has really been officially decreed and implemented, His Majesty has really officially ordered it to be promulgated and implemented!
Just a rough calculation, the money and food spent on education every year basically reach about half of the military expenditure of the scale country!
"Good!"
Zhu Youxiao was full of joy and applauded loudly.
Centennial plan, education-oriented.
You can't be wrong with that.
However, after suffering from the suffering of college students in later generations, his investment in education is very large, but the elimination rate is also extremely high.
For ordinary people, five years of study is enough.
Five years of education can make ordinary people understand things and have a skill, at least if they study hard, there is no problem in making a living.
Compared with those talents in the Ming Empire now, the level of education will not be bad.
Moreover, this new type of education will carry out large-scale reforms, and moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor must be carried out in an all-round way, and the brainwashing of loyalty and patriotism cannot be stopped for a moment.
In the textbook, arithmetic, geography, politics, history, martial arts, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and other subjects will also be added.
Only those who are talented in a certain aspect can be upgraded to middle school and further cultivated.
As for college, if you are not a demon-level talent, you are not qualified to go to it at all.
In the future, every college student will be a real proud son, and he will be much more awesome than the previous Jinshi.
Zhu Youxiao knows that nothing can be flooded, and once it spreads, it will be worthless.
In the future, so many college students around the world, most of them, are useless, and they can't compare to a green tea.
In Zhu Youxiao's planning, no college student is a middle school student, and nine out of ten people are not qualified to be.
Yan Yingyuan was even looking forward to the situation that in the future, casually recruiting a cattle herding baby would be able to crush those Jiangnan talents in terms of knowledge.
In a few years, the talented people in Jiangnan may really doubt life one by one, right?
This time, those scholars have completely provoked His Majesty the Emperor, and so far this year, there will not be any place for any existing "scholars" in the future Ming Empire.
Yes, this year's year is the last chance for those who read to swear for the Ming Empire.
After this year, after the work of the Ministry of Education is fully rolled out, those who study can cry and faint in the latrines.
"Your Majesty!"
Yan Yingyuan's face suddenly turned grim, and he said with a straight face, "After your last deterrent plan this year, Your Majesty, our Ming Empire, must stop domestic expansion and stabilize again." ”
"Just like you, the steps are too big now, it's time to stop and cultivate our own internal strength."
"Our future enemies, or those foreign races, as well as your whole world, will be the enemies of our Ming Empire."
"Without forging an incomparably solid foundation, it is simply impossible to face the blockade and encirclement of all countries in the world in the future."
After Zhu Youxiao heard this, his face was solemn, and after a while, he nodded, making Yan Yingyuan retreat and not mention it.
Yan Yingyuan is good, and when his last deterrence plan of the year is completed, he will stop and stabilize again.
This stable word is not a return to the old way before, it has to be passed.
Yan Yingyuan's "stability" refers to the expansion and military actions in the country, which can be stopped for the time being, and the degree of confrontation with the puppet dynasty in Jiangnan is good.
However, not fighting a civil war does not mean not expanding outward!
The world power in the past has definitely not been able to become a world power and hegemon by closing itself off from the rest of the world.
It must strengthen itself by plundering outward, giving itself constant blood transfusions, weakening and annexing other countries to strengthen itself, and it can rise quickly.
In fact, the law of the jungle is the real factor for a world hegemon-level power to maintain its long-term endurance.
The world of the earth is so big, you get a little more, and the other countries have a little less.
The more resources you get, the less other countries get.
Without enough territory and resources, what will other countries use to develop greatly, and what will they use to surpass you? How to fight with you?
The implication of Yan Yingyuan's words is to remind Zhu Youxiao that in this era of the arrival of the Great Voyage, don't worry about land, the sea is the most important thing for the Ming Empire.
The all-out expansion of the navy and warships is the focus of the near future, that is, the internal strength of Yan Yingyuan's overhaul.
Yes, after many in-depth conversations with His Majesty the Emperor and knowing the emperor's great ambitions and ideals, Yan Yingyuan's brain and thinking have also undergone tremendous changes.
He can be called a forerunner of an era.
