In Layue, the police dog trained by Tang Zhou was put into work. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

When night falls, they patrol the entire city of Liuzhou under the leadership of the officials, and no thief can escape their noses.

In ten days, they caught almost twenty thieves, and they became a nightmare for thieves.

The due diligence of the police dog has been recognized by the people of Liuzhou City, and everyone can't help but love the dog.

The matter of the police dog is on the right track, and at this time, the New Year is getting closer and closer.

This is Tang Zhou's first New Year in Liuzhou City, Tang Zhou suddenly wanted to come to something different, if it was normal, Tang Zhou might accompany Lin Qingsu in the house and cook all kinds of delicious food for her.

But now he is not only a little marquis, but also the assassin of Liuzhou City, he needs to do something for Liuzhou City.

On this day, he called Sima Kongzhu to the study.

"Lord Sima, seeing that this year is almost over, during this time, Ben Hou has been busy with other things, and he doesn't know much about the literati in Liuzhou City, so he thinks about holding a banquet in the government office on the twenty-third day of the lunar month, and inviting all the talents, lifters, and jinshi in Liuzhou to the banquet, what do you think?"

Sima Kongzhu is a literati, so he naturally likes this kind of event very much, and after hearing Tang Zhou's words, he hurriedly responded: "This is good, the little marquis is very affectionate, and we, the literati in Liuzhou, are only afraid that we have long admired it." ”

This was suspicious of sycophancy, but Tang Zhou liked it very much, and said: "Okay, since you also think it's good, then arrange it, set the personnel, and I'll prepare the banquet that day." ”

Speaking of this, Tang Zhou pondered for a moment and said, "It's set for that afternoon." ”

Sima Kongzhu responded again and again, and then went to count the number of people.

When Sima Kongzhu was doing this, Tang Zhou thought about what to cook and how many ingredients to sell, he felt that Liuzhou City was not small, and there should be many people who were qualified to go to Beijing to take the exam or further take the exam, and this banquet should have at least one or twenty tables, right?

Although he hadn't cooked so many meals for a long time, he was still very motivated when he thought that those people were the hope of Liuzhou City and the hope of Datang.

But two days later, when Sima Kongzhu sent the list, Tang Zhou was dumbfounded.

The list was written on a piece of paper, and it was not yet full, Tang Zhou counted it carefully, and there were only about twenty people in the entire Liuzhou City who were eligible to participate in the banquet.

More than 20 people, he can cope with two tables of wine and food.

It shouldn't be.

Tang Zhou took the list and looked at it a few times, shaking his head while looking at it, and after reading it like this, he suddenly pointed to the list and asked Sima Kongzhu, "Master Sima, what's going on?" ”

Sima Kongzhu didn't mean what Tang Zhou was referring to, and after being stunned for a moment, he replied: "Little Marquis, this is the list." ”

"I know it's the list, and I want to ask why there are so few people on the list?"

Sima Kongzhu looked embarrassed and said, "Little Hou Ye, it's really just such a person." ”

Tang Zhou frowned and asked, "How can this be?" ”

Sima Kongzhu sighed lightly and said: "Little Hou Ye doesn't know, before you came, Liuzhou City didn't pay attention to cultural learning at all, and everyone couldn't even eat enough, who went to study?" Without an atmosphere, there are fewer people to learn. ”

Speaking of this, Sima Kongzhu coughed dryly twice, and said: "Don't be afraid of the jokes of the little marquis, from the beginning of the imperial examination system in the Sui Dynasty to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty today, there is only one of us in Liuzhou who has been recorded as a jinshi in the case examination." ”

Sima Kongzhu was obviously a little embarrassed, and couldn't help lowering his head when he said one, and Tang Zhou also felt incredible, Liuzhou City can't be said to be small, there are so many people in such a big place, how can there be so many people who don't study?

And it's only been a few decades since there was a jinshi, which is too embarrassing, right?

Tang Zhou quickly realized the problem of Liuzhou City, the lack of education.

No one advocates reading, no one wants to study, and naturally there is no atmosphere for reading and taking the imperial examination.

Of course, there is also a reason that the imperial examination system of the Tang Dynasty is not particularly fair, and the admission quota of the poor family and the family and the nobles is different, and it is even more difficult for these people in Liuzhou City to be admitted to the Jinshi.

As far as Tang Zhou knew, in the entire Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years, many talented people could not be admitted to the Jinshi, let alone those who did not read many books in Liuzhou City.

Thinking about it carefully, it is extremely scary that if a place does not pay attention to cultural learning, it is destined to be a backward place, and Tang Zhou will not allow this situation to occur in the places under his jurisdiction.

Only by reading can he know more about honor and disgrace, and he doesn't want his people to be ignorant.

Not to mention how many Jinshi will be admitted to Liuzhou City in the future, he hopes that the people of Liuzhou City will be able to read and write and get rid of that kind of ignorance.

It's just that getting people here to read and write is not an easy thing to do.

There are many good things in this world, but not everyone is willing to learn them, such as culture.

Reading is a very hard thing, and it is difficult to see results in a short period of time, so many people are not willing to waste time in this area, thankless things, who wants to do it?

If you want to reverse this situation in Liuzhou City, you must make great efforts and perseverance.

But no matter how much effort is put in and how much perseverance is required, Tang Zhou has done it.

After pondering for a long time, Tang Zhou instructed Sima Kongzhu: "Okay, just these people, you tell them that you will come to the government office to make an appointment that afternoon, by the way, choose a few pieces of land in the city in the name of the government office, and Benhou will build a school." ”

Sima Kongzhu was about to nod his head, but suddenly heard that Tang Zhou was going to build a school, he was stunned for a moment, and said, "Little Hou Ye just said that he wanted to build a school?" ”

"That's right, I want to make it affordable for everyone in Liuzhou City who is willing to read."

Sima Kongzhu didn't expect Tang Zhou to make such a decision, and he lived in Liuzhou City all the year round, he was very aware of the difficulty of this, he wanted to remind Tang Zhou, but after thinking about it, Tang Zhou was not smarter than him, could he think of Tang Zhou?

But Tang Zhou thought of it but still did it, and Sima Kongzhu's heart was suddenly shocked.

In life, many things are difficult to do, but there are still people who do them, such people can be called heroes, they will do it after they decide it, and they will not stop because it is difficult to do.

Sima Kongzhu suddenly worshipped Tang Zhou, or rather, it was a literati who worshipped an impending prosperous era.

"Little Marquis, don't worry, since you want to do it, the lower officials will definitely give it their full support."

Sima Kongzhu hadn't been so excited for a long time, because many things couldn't shock him from the heart, even when Tang Zhou dealt with the Mu family before, but the fact that everyone could afford to read made him shaken.

After receiving the order, Sima Kongzhu went down to do the things Tang Zhou explained, the banquet of the young year, and a few pieces of land in Liuzhou City used to build schools and colleges.
