Chapter 276: Huge Reform of the Education System
Yang Lin cautiously touched the fine sweat on his forehead, and then looked at the four little adults who had already stood up when Li Er slapped the chopsticks, and a trace of pride rose inexplicably in his heart, because his forehead was just a thin layer of cold sweat, and the foreheads of the four little adults, in just these two minutes, actually appeared bean-sized sweat particles, and even rolled to the neck and slid non-stop.
"Uh, cough, cough, four of you, please sit down first, let's get down to business, there are thousands of ways to manage local officials, such as releasing officials, sending inspectors to supervise the imperial history, and even secret agents secretly visiting, but these are all rotten methods used in the previous dynasty, in this society where people govern people, it is useless, those who manage people, and those who are managed, will definitely collude, and it is almost impossible to completely eliminate this phenomenon, but we can do our best to prevent it.
I think that the law that the eldest grandson is revising can solve this problem very well, as long as the people and officials have a strict and unified legal control standard, everyone knows the law of the Tang Dynasty, everyone can know the law and use the law, supervise each other, and then the judges of the government courts from all walks of life are unrelated to the society to hear and punish all kinds of crimes, so that the judiciary is independent outside of politics and military, and the emperor can easily control the people of the world, of course, Here we can summarize the three major elements needed for national stability, that is, military, political, and legal.
The military is controlled by independent military law, but it depends on politics, the rule of law supervises politics, and the military guarantees politics and the rule of law, the three systems do not interfere with each other, but they can check and balance each other, and the emperor, if he has talent, can be pro-government, in charge of the army, in charge of the law, if he is stupid. If you don't care about political affairs, you don't have to worry about it, you can let the three major systems run on their own, and only attend major ceremonies as representatives of the people of the world, and appoint talented ministers to manage them. ”
"Then how do you know that no one in power will be in tandem with each other. Kill the emperor and let your children and grandchildren enjoy the glory and wealth of eternity? Before Yang Lin finished speaking, Li Er put down his chopsticks again.
"No one can guarantee that a dynasty will be invincible, because no one can know what the world will be like in hundreds, or even thousands of years, and we can only earn more foundation for future generations in our lifetime, so that even if they fail, they can be defeated for a few more years. However, as long as the lives of the people are improved. Who will rebel against the emperor! For example, the former Yuwen Scorpio, there are many people similar to him, are there still any now? This is just the beginning of my Tang Dynasty, decades later, the lives of the people will go up a few levels, and no one will be bored and have nothing to do to rebel against the emperor. Yang Lin gave an example.
"Military, political and legal affairs, mutual checks and balances, and mutual dependence. The horse master is really a genius, and the officials admire it. However, the political concept of the master of the horse is based on the fact that everyone understands the law and abides by the law, you must know that even now, there are less than one percent of my people who are literate in Datang, and among these adults, there are less than one hundred people who fully understand the laws of Datang. And how to do it so that everyone can understand the complicated laws? In this way, isn't the idea of the horse master just empty talk? Zhang Jizhi, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his voice.
"It's not that everyone should fully understand the law, understand some basic civil laws, and the problem of illiteracy you mentioned is the next step we need to work on. The construction of Chang'an Academy has reached the final stage, the compilation of all kinds of teaching materials has also been completed, in addition to the teachers are still a little insufficient, the others have basically been prepared, and this college with the most complete departments in history will be open to the whole Tang Dynasty enrollment, and its affiliated colleges will also spread in various states and counties, regardless of men and women, they can be enrolled in the school, and through the examination, they can go to Chang'an Academy to receive the highest education, in addition to the talent admission standards, the rest such as primary school, middle school, high school basic education must be completed, Universities begin to elective, and higher graduate students, doctoral students, must be based on the bachelor's degree of the university, according to personal research, results to evaluate, here, the college is required to have the same primary, middle, junior high school, high school and other levels of division, and the bachelor's degree, must be recognized by Chang'an Academy.
Therefore, in the first two years, the branch of Chang'an Academy will be opened in all cities above the state level, within five years, all cities above the county level must have one, and within ten years, it will be refined to the township. Our goal is to eradicate all illiteracy and become literate in 20 years' time, a generation from now. ”
Yanglin's words were sonorous and powerful, but even the emperor Li Er was present, and he also had reservations about the blueprint built by Yanglin, reading in the eyes of the ancients required talent, and they had a deep-rooted understanding that most people have no talent for reading, after all, there are many strokes and strange Chinese characters, even if they are given to adults to learn in later generations, it is not easy to learn, not to mention that the ancients liked to use a few short words to contain thousands of meanings, and people who are not big enough are really difficult to learn, However, Yanglin basically applied the education methods of later generations when educating the aborigines of Wangjia Village and the orphans adopted, although it was not very systematic, but among them, there are at least no less than 100 people who can be used for education below junior high school, as for the courses of high school and university, in fact, there is no need to worry within three years after the opening of Chang'an Academy, Yanglin requires these teachers who are about to take up their posts to learn while teaching, and only Yang Lin himself, Guyue Daowen and a few elders of the god and human race can teach themWhen Chang'an Academy gives birth to high school students and college students, these teachers can basically be qualified to educate them, after all, these people are people who have received Yanglin's education since childhood, and their ability to accept them is not the same.
"This, I'm afraid it won't be as the horse master wants! People have strengths, and some people are born only suitable for farming and doing farm work, or practicing martial arts and fighting with weapons, so that all people can go to study, so who will produce and plant and feed these scholars? It's not going to work! Zhang Jizhi shook his head after a little thought, the idea of everyone reading is not something that no one has thought about before, but after a little thought, he has to shake his head, the productivity of the ancients was low, and a farmer crawled in the ground all year round, and he may not be able to feed many people, so the proportion of farmers in any dynasty is more than eighty percent of the total population, although the Tang Dynasty is now full of national strength, but it is absolutely impossible to support everyone to put down their hoes to study, which will cause a fault line in the production class, which can only be regarded as an imaginary thing.
"Of course, reading is voluntary, and what I said is to let newborns who have reached the age to enroll in school, not to let all farmers go to study, besides, reading is not to make them all become bookworms without production, ten years ago Wangjia Village adopted more than 100 children who became orphans in the locust plague, these ten years, they are basically learning and making progress every day, and their output can be said to be the largest group of people in the Datang production class, to be honest, I am a little reluctant to let them put down their industries to teach in the academy, However, the development of Datang is about to reach a bottleneck and needs more talents, so I have to make adjustments, you must know that the first batch of 30 million yuan invested by Chang'an Academy is what they have earned in the past two years. ”
"Sizzle"
As soon as Yang Lin's words were finished, there was a gasping sound in the banquet hall, no wonder Yang Lin dared to let go of such a big breath, to open the branches of Chang'an Academy in all states and counties within a few years, it turned out that the first batch of investment of Chang'an Academy was 30 million yuan, what an amazing capital is this? The annual income of the treasury is only like this, just take it out to build a school, this is definitely a huge amount of money, at least now the cost of the Tang Palace, less than one-tenth of this, in fact, what they don't know is that this is just Yanglin's investment in Chang'an Academy, which occupies the land of six squares, the huge school building, new teaching equipment, is undoubtedly built by Yanglin with a lot of money, and even, there are some industrial parks outside the school, for the use of various faculties, and the branch schools of the state and county, It will be initially donated by the dealers of the top ten factories in the east and west, and will be built by the combination of social capital and government power, at least in the hard capital investment on Yanglin does not need to spend too much, the headache is only the faculty. Within three to five years, she will train at least 100 new students from junior high school and even high school or above to teach.
"I have long heard His Majesty say that the master of the horse must be a big deal, with an investment of 30 million yuan, and the education upgrade for the whole country, it is really a super big deal, but there is still something unclear about the lower officials, such a huge educational reform, why would the master think that it can be realized, has the master of the horse already done the argumentation, or practice? You know, if the peasant children do not learn to farm and work in the field, it will add a great burden to their families, and the major clans, in order to maintain the superiority of their own scholars, will also oppose the running of the school, which is probably not a small resistance, and besides, such a huge investment, for the imperial court, it is only possible to have a few more available talents, and now the Tang Dynasty is full of talents, it can be said that there is not much benefit, do you need to spend a lot of effort to promote it? ”
Li Yifu put forward his opinion after being stunned for a while. Although he knew that the Chang'an Academy project was completely dominated by the Horse Mansion, but when Yanglin said 30 million runs, his little heart still beat violently for a long time, generally the accounts of the million guan level are national projects, and the tens of millions of projects Datang has not appeared so far, and even the world-renowned projects such as the top ten factories in the east and west and the heavenly and earthly buildings have not reached tens of millions of guan, Yanglin actually invested 30 million guan in a project, and it is also wholly owned by the Horse Mansion, you know, A person can generously spend 30 million yuan to make a project, so how rich is all his assets? The word rich rival country is no longer enough to describe, it should be said that he is much richer than the country, so what are the seven sects and five surnames, it is simply not a fart in front of him.
