"What is the specific recruitment standard for the recruitment order?" Xi Zhicai asked.

"Meritocracy can appropriately relax the requirements for morality and family background!" Li Ming thought about it, his recruitment order was based on Cao Cao's recruitment order in history, which was one of the few policies related to Cao Cao that he knew.

For example, when he was mainly investigating the nine-product system, he accidentally found out about this policy. If the investigation continues, there will be a system of 'recruitment orders'. As for Tuntian, he also appointed Zhang Mo as the lieutenant of the agricultural school to be in charge of this matter.

Later, after being reminded by his subordinates, he realized that this should be the official position of leading the military tun or the people's tun, so at the same time that Ren Jun succeeded him as the captain of the Diannong school, he specially formed the Juntun Corps. Considering the lack of arable land in Wu County and Huiji County, at Wei Teng's suggestion, 30,000 Yue people were sent to Yizhou to carry out military cantonment there.

"The family is estimated to seize on moral issues to protest, even if it is the Yu family or the Gu family, I am afraid that they will openly oppose it." Guo Jia shook his head when he heard this, "For the family, the official position itself is their territory, whether it is a civil or military attaché, it is an important position for them to expand the family's right to speak in affairs, how can they allow the cold family to get involved?" Besides, if a recruitment order is issued, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing for the poor family! ”

"What do you mean by that?" Li Ming is still a little unable to turn around.

"It is difficult to study in poor families, and most of them need to please the family to get the opportunity to learn. Since there is a recruitment order this time, there will inevitably be a recruitment order in the future, because the family will inevitably be hostile to the poor scholars, and the children of the poor family will be more difficult to ask for learning. Over time, it will be difficult to produce talents in the cold ......," Xi Zhicai sighed.

"Meow, what do you say I should do? Just let those families put me in the air? Li Ming suddenly played a scoundrel.

"Lord!" Xi Zhicai stepped forward, "This change of officials' ruling areas can just give us three to five years of respite." At that time, a group of scholars from the Huiji Academy and the clan have already graduated, and they can just fill in. In the future, it is only necessary to expand the family studies and the Huiji Academy, and it can be improved to some extent. ”

"In this way, the children of the family still occupy the lion's share!" Li Ming was unwilling, "Why don't we directly set up township schools in each township, specifically help school-age children and adults who are eager to learn to enlighten and teach them simple math ......"

"No, the recruitment order will only disgust the family at most, and the appearance of the township school is estimated to make them go crazy to boycott!" Guo Jia's expression changed greatly when he heard this, and he hurriedly came forward to persuade him.

"Do you need to be so exaggerated?" Li Ming only felt that Guo Jia was a little overbearing.

"This is not alarmism!" Xi Zhicai also hurriedly came forward, "If the lord wants to set up a township school, it will be a blessing for the people." However, this also infringes on the fundamental interests of the Maison, which is the monopoly on culture. In order to ensure that the monopoly on culture is not broken, they will firmly resist the lord! Not only Huiji County or Wu County, all the families of the Han Dynasty will stand firmly on the opposite side of the lord! The most important thing is that Luling County and Yuzhang County are not yet fully controlled! Besides, Xin Bi of Changsha County, I am afraid that he may not be able to ...... with the lord again."

"Is this a situation that cannot be changed in a lifetime? I am destined to only use less than thirty percent of the officials to fight against the family that occupies more than seventy percent? Li Ming only felt depressed, although there were still thirty percent of the poor scholars left, but during their official years, who could guarantee that they would marry the family and gradually move closer to the family in order to be promoted faster?

You must know that for such outstanding children of poor families, the family has many means to encircle them into 'their own people'.

"At this time, you just need to show the power of the head of the family!" Li You immediately stepped forward, "Since it is so easy to be trapped, it is useless for such a courtier to be talented, just find a reason to take it." Naturally, others will not be fools, and naturally understand who they should be loyal to. Besides, in the family, it is not a monolith, pulling a batch to fight a batch, and using strength to fight is the emperor's mental technique. ”

"It just can't change the status quo!" Li Ming couldn't help but feel distressed, "The filial piety system has long become an express way for the children of the family to advance, and to put it bluntly, it is in name only." I intend to combine the means of township study and other means to establish a perfect talent selection mechanism, which is called the 'imperial examination system'. I also know this system, and it is estimated that there is no way to eliminate the disadvantages of a large number of children of the family entering the officialdom, but at least it can give more poor families the opportunity to become officials. ”

After speaking, by the way, he told his original plan and the concept of the so-called imperial examination system.

"The lord has such an idea, which is a blessing for the poor in the world! I just want to promote it, but I can only slowly figure it out! Xi Zhicai gave up his hand and admonished.

"Then you say, how to slowly figure it out?" Li Ming was suddenly a little unhappy.

"The first step is to let the people have more books, and if they are interested in scholars, they will naturally seize every opportunity to learn. Maybe someone can copy thousands of enlightenment books and put them into the market, not to mention hundreds of them will go into the hands of poor people. The key is that the cost is too high, and I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses. "Xi Zhicai has some ideas, but this idea is a bit difficult to implement.

The paper is too brittle, and it can break at the point of force, so it is not suitable for long-term storage. Moreover, copying word by word is more expensive. Not to mention the use of bamboo slips, it takes a lot of time and cost to carve on them.

Among them, the difficulty is no less than losing money and making money, and only in this way will the family allow Li Ming to lay out. Besides, they will buy some of the thousands of books themselves, and the rest, as Xi Zhicai said, would be good to have hundreds of them.

"Books? Hahaha, I said what it was, it turned out to be a book?! Li Ming immediately laughed when he heard this, he really didn't seem to think of the means of putting a large number of books into the market.

Probably also busy with the affairs of this time, I even forgot about this method.

"Does the lord have a clever plan?" Seeing this, Guo Jia couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Some time ago, at the suggestion of the lord, the people in the workshop further improved the papermaking technique, and now the paper is whiter, and at the same time more flexible, which is very suitable for writing, and the key cost has more than doubled compared with before, and it can be sold cheaply......" Li You knew some inside information, but as for him coming forward at this time, it was more than Li Ming to explain in person, which could amaze Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, and at the same time satisfy Li Ming's vanity.

"What do you think of this method for making books?" After Li Ming finished speaking, he took out his seal, dipped it in ink, took out a piece of white paper, and printed it on it.

When the three of them got closer, they naturally saw Li Ming's name on the white paper, and the three of them were not fools, so they naturally realized something.

"In this way, wouldn't the price of books be more than doubled as before?" Guo Jia couldn't believe it.

"More than doubled!" Xi Zhicai's brain is more active, "A engraving can be used repeatedly, if it is printed in large quantities, the cost will be lower, and when a book is sold at half the current price, there will be a lot of profit at all!" ”

"So it's going to work?" Li Ming asked with interest.

"The lord is wise!" The three of them gave up, but they didn't expect this matter to be so fast, and they found a breakthrough.
