Chapter 15 Abundant Talents
Gao Shi's recruitment, Pei Min solved it himself.
As for Wang Han, he originally had the same intentions, but today's Pei Min is a generation of Wenzong.
Not only is the poetry graceful and atmospheric, but also has made eternal articles that are not inferior to "Persuasion" and "Teacher Table". For a well-educated person like Wang Han, it is very attractive.
Under Wang Wei's persuasion, Wang Han also intended to become a member of Pei Min's shogunate.
Looking at the luxurious lineup of Zhang Jiuling, Wang Changling, Wang Wei, Wang Zhilian, and Wang Han, Pei Min felt that he didn't have to worry about Hexi's cultural governance at all.
Confucianism is a very inclusive, assimilation is very heavy doctrine, Pei Min has the intention to use Confucianism to better control Hexi, and gradually infect the Western Regions, and even the steppe aliens and even the Arab and Byzantine empires, on the one hand, the great culture of the Tang Dynasty will be spread, on the other hand, if possible, he does not mind expanding the territory of the Tang Dynasty to the European and African continents, and they feel the essence of Confucianism first, which can facilitate many things.
With such a large literary lineup, Pei Min really can't believe that he can't improve the overall cultural level of Hexi.
As for Gao Shi, Pei Min still guided him to military strategy, improved his military literacy, and became his military staff officer.
After returning to Guzang, Pei Min immediately discussed with Zhang Jiuling, Li Linfu, Wang Changling, Yan Gaoqing, Wang Wei, Wang Zhilian, Wang Han and other advisers to improve the Tang culture in Hexi and consolidate the status of the Tang Dynasty in the hearts of the people.
Zhang Jiuling has already filed in this regard, and first said: "Opening a school is a profitable practice, and it should bear the brunt. Originally, it might have been difficult to find a teacher, but now there is no need to worry about it at all. After this rally, I believe that many people will devote themselves to the cause of education. ”
Pei Min said solemnly: "Education should start with children, and this must be dealt with as soon as possible!" I guess there's still a lot of money in the treasury......"
Zhang Jiuling smiled and said: "This Guogong can rest assured, the treasury is abundant, and there are many big businessmen who are willing to cooperate with all the policies of the Guogong, and they need to contribute money and efforts." ”
Pei Min also knows that compared with Longyou's tight finances, he is now a nouveau riche.
There are 100,000 families in Liangzhou Qili, which is not an exaggeration at all.
As the third economic center of Datang, Liangzhou receives an extremely considerable amount of taxes every month. The taxation of Liangzhou is almost comparable to that of the twelve states of Longyou.
According to the rules, the large part of the tax would be paid to the imperial court, and the small head would be freely distributed by the local government. Even if it's a small head, it's not a small amount.
Pei Min is now an envoy in Hexi, and he has no right to manage the accounts, but he has the power to use it.
As for the sponsorship of businessmen and gentry, this is a common practice in ancient times.
On the one hand, it can increase their influence, and on the other hand, the richer and more developed their hometown, the more benefits they will have for themselves. Cooperation with each other is a matter of killing two birds with one stone.
Pei Min opened Longshan and repaired Wusheling Ridge, so that the big businessmen in Liangzhou made a lot of money.
Those who can be called big businessmen are not stupid.
In the face of a character like Pei Min, how can they not stutter?
Funding a few schools is not even a drop in the bucket for them.
Pei Min said: "There are at least two schools in each county. The layout of the two schools should also be reasonable and convenient for every student in the county. The school should be spread to every region, no matter how remote it is, and it must be ensured that there is a school in the county. At the same time, the scholars who opened private schools were rewarded, and the local government cooperated. By the way, the education of children is not only about culture, but also about cultivating their moral character and conducting ethical education. ”
He suddenly thought of the "Three Character Classic", when the "Three Character Classic" was written, he didn't remember, at least not now, after coming to the Tang Dynasty for so many years, he had never seen a similar book.
The enlightenment book of this era is "Liujia", which is not a body with Liujia or the like, but a heavenly and earthly branch such as A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and 癸, which begins with "A", and there are six groups, so it is called Liujia.
This Liujia has no meaning, it is simply used for literacy and practice.
is much inferior to the "Three Character Classic".
Pei Min continued: "When I go back, I write a children's enlightenment education book, Liujia is too old-fashioned. ”
Everyone in the hall came out of Li Linfu, and everyone else was shocked, looking forward to Pei Min's new work.
Li Linfu also pretended to be very interested.
At first, he pretended to be a scholar, with a very knowledgeable pretense, and blended into Pei Min's staff group. It's just that his literary level is really unbearable, he can't reach the meaning of the words, and he can't recognize all the words, which confirms his reputation as the prime minister in history, and makes a lot of jokes.
However, he found that Pei Min didn't care about his cultural level, he valued him as much as before, and he no longer stuck garlic in his nose, and he worked harder.
How did he know that Pei Min knew everything about his ability and had already seen through everything about him.
At the same time, he knows better that literary style and dry strategy are not equal.
Li Linfu's literary talent is the bottom under his command, and he can't even compare with Feng Changqing, a general, but his ability is not inferior to Zhang Jiuling, and he is even higher than Zhang Jiuling in special places.
"What else do you have to add?" Pei Min looked at everyone.
Li Linfu immediately answered: "These days, my subordinates have visited various places and found that the folk customs here are light. They are afraid of ghosts and disgusted with the sick, and they do not immediately ask for a doctor, but ask a shaman to worship the Buddha. Thinking that illness is caused by ghosts, he does not dare to approach. Most of the critically ill parents do not serve them personally, but carry food with sticks and hand it to them from a distance. The subordinates felt that this custom was a pathology and needed to be changed. Only by changing the common people's ignorant common sense can they open up their minds and learn to accept the orthodox culture. ”
This is also the reason why Pei Min left Li Linfu, he is very good at patting sycophants, he knows what Pei Min thinks, in order to get more weight, he will work hard to share his worries.
In terms of strategy, Li Linfu's ability is beyond doubt.
"Lin Fu said that the idea is that children are easy to do, but what is difficult to do is pedantic and ignorant adults, if they don't change their vulgarity, it will affect generation after generation." Pei Min paused and said: "Lin Fu, this matter will be left to you, and I will induce you to correct this ignorant custom." ”
"Yes!" Li Linfu said with a little excitement.
Zhang Jiuling, Wang Changling, and Wang Zhilian didn't like Li Linfu very much, but they had to admit Li Linfu's ability.
The subordinates felt that they could use more free time to organize poetry and rhetoric meetings, and also let Confucian students study Confucian classics, encourage young students, and raise the trend. People in the world like to go with the flow, and what the trend is is also what the people want. Wang Wei also gave his own suggestions.
"Not bad!" Pei Min saw that everyone was saying a word, and put forward various suggestions, and once again realized the strength of the team.
also arranged it to let the people under his command be responsible for Hexi culture and education.
