Chongzhen's 23 years are undoubtedly a crucial year. If we say that before this, people who really had new culture and new traditions, and who had avoided the influence of the old times from the early education of children and teenagers, were just "embryos" cultivated by Xiao Xuan like the "Model New Army", or the "Oriental Mamluk" who was detached from the social system. Then, after twenty-one years and three rounds of reproduction, the early "embryo" composed of forty or fifty selected little girls began to become a vibrant and very different school in seven years, and then it took seven years to multiply into a school city, and after another seven years, it was the time when the "school city" was the result and really began to be able to "peach and plum in the sky".

During this period of time, after internal and external financial rectification, the entire financial system was also very different from before, and Xiao Xuan also began to change some of his previous ideas. At a time when the nascent bureaucracy has not yet formed interest groups like those in Europe and the United States, even if it can only be effectively used for twenty or thirty years, it is necessary to increase investment in certain aspects.

Under the various radical institutional reforms and reforms in the past ten years since the Western Expedition, the economic system of the entire society has also undergone great changes. Under the condition that domestic agriculture has recovered to about 400 kilograms of grain output, and there are some livestock industries, and the entire agricultural output value is equivalent to 500 kilograms of grain, the scale of urban industry and commerce has still reached twice the agricultural output value; In more than ten years, it has reached about eight times the total scale of the previous one, almost doubling in about four years on average like the peak of the Soviet Five-Year Plan, and two or three times the golden age of the Beiyang Republic in history. Of course, the reason is not that this era has the source power of the industrial age, but that ancient China suppressed normal commercial activities too much from the legal system of property rights, ideology and even various mechanisms. When you can set up a stall in front of a school or a large shop without worrying about black, white and gray to collect unaffordable protection fees, the potential of the industrial and commercial industry in the agricultural era and the industrial age will burst out at once. Not to mention the huge amount of resources obtained overseas. Therefore, in just a dozen years, the urban system has expanded to 40 million people, with an urbanization rate of 30 percent, and the number of employed people in urban areas has reached 20 million.

According to the general survey and evaluation of the parallel organizations of the newly established "Central Unification," the added value of the entire urban industrial and commercial system should be estimated to be about 2 billion catties of grain, while the added value of agriculture is estimated to be about 1 billion catties of grain.

The rapid development of the economy and even the demand for money gradually began to stabilize the price system, as in Britain in some years, because of the hard currency as the support, prices did not have the same inflation as in the twentieth century.

Under the completely different fiscal policy conditions, the scale of fiscal revenue from domestic sources has reached the scale of hard currency equivalent to the price of grain of 500 million catties, while the total fiscal scale, including overseas revenue, has reached the scale of equivalent to the price of grain of 800 million catties.

In this context, the conditions began to be met for a wide range of education to be carried out throughout the country. Of course, in order to make the most effective use of the scientific and educational resources that are not yet very abundant in order to achieve this extensive education, there are still basic entrance examinations at the time of initial admission, and this is largely based on a voluntary basis. In this way, the 10 million students enrolled in the new Confucian school are not only fresh children who have just become enlightened, but also many adults who plan to come to tutor. Of course, there is still a general limitation in terms of age, and that is that the person who marries is different. Xiao Xuan still doesn't believe that a person who has a family and a career in this era will have too much room for transformation and even transformation value in his ideology.

In the following semester, about one-fifth of the 10 million people were eliminated due to basic discipline and even morality problems, and the scale of 8 million people was finally determined, so as to barely ensure that the educational order of the new college would not be damaged and affected.

It is also extremely large that so many people can receive sufficient learning and even scientific research activities in schools that are oriented to research and training, rather than simply book education. In this regard, after years of preparation, it is finally time to start being able to afford to pay for the huge investment in education and research. In this case, almost all of the income obtained from overseas has been smashed into this unprecedented expansion of the science and education system. The annual cost of teaching, experiments, and internships amounts to 300 million catties of grain, accounting for about 10 percent of the national economy.

In the Mao era, which was touted by many people, investment in education and science and technology accounted for only about 4 percent of the total economy, and the United States only reached the scale of public spending on education and scientific research at the peak of the Cold War. Before World War II, it was unthinkable for a long time that there were no more students at that British university than in the Republic of China. If it weren't for the fact that many people had already tasted the sweetness of some investment in vocational and technical training and even scientific research, I am afraid that this investment in science and education, which was even higher than the burden of military spending during the war period of this era, would inevitably be a stain on many people.

Even Tian Xiuying, who has rarely questioned Xiao Xuan in political affairs, felt a little too much after receiving such a huge investment in science and education: "Can you really be sure that the future described before will come?" ”

"As long as we completely change the customs in the cultural atmosphere and have enough investment, I believe that the era will definitely come, and the pattern of the world will change completely differently with the progress of the times. . . ."

In the twenty-third year of Chongzhen, in terms of cultural innovation, "it is advisable to chase the poor with the remnants" and further declare war on the "remnants of etiquette". That is, in addition to the high-level at the central level, whether it is an employee to the boss, or a subordinate to a very high superior, the first rate is commensurate with the name. In addition to the biological parents, whether it is siblings or other types of relatives, it is also widely advocated and even required to be referred to by name. "Xiao Zhang", "Xiao Li", "Lao Zhang", "Lao Li", "Yangyang", "Ah Hong" are the upper limit of tolerance. Moreover, "individualism" is widely advocated throughout society. Check all kinds of circle culture and acquaintance culture. Relatives and classmates, if they work together or meet each other, it is a major suspicion of "circleism", and there is a reward for reporting.

At the same time, based on some documents unearthed from Han tombs, a great discussion was set off to criticize the "metaphysics of traditional Chinese medicine" since the Song Dynasty. Reflecting on the fact that Chinese medicine was still a science specifically for diseases in the Han or Tang dynasties, when and for whom, it put on some "metaphysical clothing" that did not exist in the past

Of course, Xiao Xuan knows that many of these are "positive interactions" that the West has not had in history, but in order to make the innovation ability of the whole society stronger than the West in history, in fact, there is only "more Westernization than the West" and "more de-feudal remnants than the West"
