Chapter 62 Reserve Talents

"Why doesn't Your Majesty open a few more schools in various places, officials from all over the country are selected from schools, and those who perform well are slowly being promoted."

Mo Shuyu thought of the civil service system of later generations, which has been tested, and from all aspects, the civil service system is the best system for selecting outstanding talents, and as for the disadvantages in other aspects, it is not in his scope of consideration.

"How easy is it to start a school? Not to mention the heavy cost, how many families in various places can send their children to study in schools? The reason why it is said that it is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family since ancient times is because there is no money to study. ”

Li Shimin doesn't know how many poor disciples can enter the official career, but how many people are willing to pay for their children's education? How many families have the money to study for their children?

"Your Majesty, the kid is willing to contribute money and efforts to build schools for the state capitals of the Tang Dynasty, but all those who enter the school will be free of tuition, and they will also take care of one meal a day!" Mo Shuyu has been brainwashed and educated in later generations, and when the youth is strong, the country is strong, and the great prime minister also said that he studied for the rise of China.

"Mitutoyo, do you know how much it costs? Even the treasury can't stand such consumption, you want to build a school? ”

Although Li Shimin knew that Mo Shuyu was rich and rich enough to rival the country, it was estimated that he could not afford to support the state capitals to build schools and take care of the students' meals.

"Your Majesty, isn't there still you, when the time comes, I will contribute money and efforts, and the court will contribute people. The kid then raised his arms at the Chamber of Commerce and called on businessmen to donate, won't the problem be solved? ”

Mo Shuyu also knew that it was impossible for him alone to make it impossible for everyone in Datang to be educated, but under his name, there was the Datang Chamber of Commerce, known as the first chamber of commerce in Datang. Just a high-grade wine has already enveloped half of the wealthy merchants in Chang'an. When he is putting all the methods such as cement saltpeter ice making into the Chamber of Commerce, will the Datang businessmen not flock to the chamber of commerce?

"How can a businessman take out the money in his hand to build a school in pursuit of profit? How many schools can be built by merchants? Li Shimin couldn't figure it out, relying on the donations of businessmen to build schools, how many schools could be donated by businessmen's profit-seeking hearts?

"Your Majesty, look, can I make money with this high degree of wine?"

Mo Shuyu saw that Li Shimin couldn't figure it out, so he deliberately sold Guanzi, who called Li Shimin a little inflated recently, and always bullied him.

"Naturally, I have heard that Zhijie and others have cooperated with you to drink highly, and in less than a month, you have given them 100,000 yuan, and your kid has no less than 300,000 yuan. Now that it is still earning thousands of yuan a day, if you rely on your support, it is still possible to build a university in the state capitals of Datang within a hundred years. ”

"It won't be that long, Your Majesty, and we will only need to make a promise to the merchants that they will donate to the schools they have built, and put up a monument at the entrance of the schools, with their names and exploits written on them, and even name the schools after the merchants. When the merchant makes money, he naturally wants to reap fame and fortune. And His Majesty has given them convenience, why not the merchants? ”

In later generations, there were also many rich people who went to the poor mountainous areas, for what? It's for fame and fortune.

"Your Majesty can also release a charity list every year, the most people donate every year, and Your Majesty also sends a pair of calligraphy and paintings. Not only has it given the people of the world a chance to learn, but His Majesty has earned a reputation for benevolence, why not? ”

Mo Shuyu also knew that businessmen would donate hard for fame and fortune, and in a charity list, not to mention businessmen, I am afraid that the nobles will not be left behind. After all, although the merchants are rich, I am afraid that most of them are still not as rich as the nobles.

As soon as the charity list comes out, I am afraid that it will be occupied by the aristocracy in the past few years.

"Okay, that's a great plan, I've gotten it."

Li Shimin listened to the great joy and left beautifully. Before leaving, he told Mo Shuyu to sort out the selection of scholars and other matters of the school and deliver them to him, and after sending them to him tomorrow morning, he returned to the palace with a group of guards.

"Alas, Uncle Fu, call a few people who can write." Mo Shuyu wouldn't be so stupid as to really write everything by himself, so let's dictate it himself and ask someone to write it.

Uncle Fu took four or five people who could write and followed Mo Shuyu into the study, and he didn't come out until midnight.

Mo Shuyu's plan is probably to build a primary school in all parts of Datang, and the school selects graduates with excellent grades to work as junior officials in the local county government every year, and promotes those who perform well, and ask for retirement after three years.

If you have excellent grades in various academic qualifications, you can also study in a secondary school built by the state capital. In junior high schools, students with excellent grades are selected to study at various universities. If the university performs well, you can study at the graduate school under Mo Shuyu's name.

That's right, one of Mo Shuyu's purposes is to provide reserve personnel for the basic officials of Datang, but the main purpose is that he can't find suitable personnel in Datang to help him do research. So far, there is only one Yuan Tiangang who can say a few words to him in terms of chemistry and physics. The rest of the research institute is just some craftsmen who are well-known in various fields, and if you want them to make them independently, he can only work with them.

Mo Shuyu's idea is that primary schools around the country provide basic mathematics knowledge, and from middle school onwards, there are addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc., and universities in various provinces will only accept those who are excellent in mathematics. Finally, people with great mathematical talents were selected to receive physical chemistry knowledge at the graduate school. Don't say that Mo Shuyu looks down on liberal arts, but in his plan, liberal arts don't play much of a role.

Maybe the people of Datang don't understand how important it is to reserve talents, or maybe officials are not important to Mo Shuyu. But he still attaches great importance to the selection of research institute personnel, relying on him alone, he will definitely not be able to launch an industrial revolution in Datang that is enough to change the world, but he has the knowledge that is more than a thousand years ahead of the world. In this feudal era, there is no shortage of talents in all aspects, what is lacking is a kind of vision, a kind of vision that sees the moon through the clouds.

Mo Shuyu didn't have much hope, he just hoped that when he launched the industrial revolution, there would be a group of people under his command who could help him develop things that were ahead of the world. Instead of being like before, you have to do it yourself even to make cement, one is dirty, and the other is tired.

has come to Datang from the next generation, and he is still so tired? For three or five years, he didn't think that anyone could help him build anything, as long as he could learn a little under his leadership, and then he would just need to draw drawings of his ideas and hand them over to the people below.
