Chapter 499: Extensive Elementary and Secondary Schools Storytelling

Li Chen asked Lu Dongbin to retreat, thinking in his heart. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He handed over the matter of the laughter of the Pujian primary and secondary schools to the Taoists, and let the Taoist temple attach the primary and secondary schools.

Don't forget, the temple in the Tang Dynasty originally set up a school, and Li Chen was in the temple for a while, and he was a teacher in the Qimeng class for a while. It is set up in a Taoist temple, so that there are teachers and locations, and only the teaching materials are needed, and the school can start immediately.

Lu Dongbin groaned, feeling that this is not a difficult matter, although the Taoist temple did not plan to set up a school at the beginning, but it is not impossible to set up, anyway, all Taoist priests, literacy is the most basic.

The main purpose of Li Chen's primary school is to eliminate illiteracy, teach some basic arithmetic, and some very basic astronomy and physics courses, so as to lay a good foundation for middle schools and technical vocational schools.

This school doesn't ask for any students to be admitted to the Jinshi at all, and it doesn't have much academic requirements at all. Lu Dongbin felt that this was not difficult, as long as the imperial court had teaching materials, gave some training to local Taoist priests and Taoist children, and did not even read the textbook wrongly, there would be no problem, so he agreed.

Lu Dongbin, Li Chen doesn't know if he is the famous Lu Dongbin in history. will choose him, or recommended by Feng Weiliang. Li Chen didn't even know there was such a person at first.

He will be chosen, in addition to his considerable research on Taoist classics, that is, he is more eager for fame. He has taken the imperial examination several times, but unfortunately he has failed. That's how I learned the Tao and got a little bit of success.

will recommend him, that is, this person is more eager, Feng Weiliang thinks that he is an idle cloud and a wild crane, and several of his disciples are almost like this, they are considered technical people, helping to participate in the compilation of classics, and studying Taoist classics, if you really want to manage people, he can't stand it.

Li Chen originally had the mentality of trying it out. Later, I felt that this Lu Dongbin was still successful, managed in an orderly manner, and lived up to his expectations, so he officially used him, and now he also handed over the responsibility of universal education to Taoists.

The sooner this kind of thing is going to be promoted, the better. Do everything that should be done, don't procrastinate. He has been delayed for some time, but he should have done it as soon as he came to power.

People always say that there is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid of those who have a heart. Education is not a thing. When the Japanese were defeated in the war, they dared to use half of the country's financial revenue for education, and they could not even pay the salaries of civil servants.

Moreover, he thought about it for a long time and felt that he had fallen into a misunderstanding. What is the most important thing in running education? It's not the classroom, it's the students, it's the teachers, it's the teaching materials, but the classroom is the last one.

There is a misunderstanding that Chinese run schools, and this is true on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Always spend money on some hardware, the equipment should be the best, and the teaching building should be the largest, up-to-date, and most beautiful. The campus has to be large, and so on.

But are these needed for education? The most important thing is to have students, teachers, and teaching materials. He spends his money on building schools, what's the point? Where a school is not a school, why must a school be magnificent.

Where there are teachers and students, there is a school. The school is not important, the most important foundation is to gather the students, have teachers to teach, and then there is a question of what to teach. School? There will be a chance to build it again in the future. When the finances are better in the future, schools will be built and schools will be built.

Look at the backward countries in Africa, build a grass hut with a blackboard, and it is a school. They don't have any school buildings, and even the classrooms are in tatters. If you don't have a classroom, you don't have to learn?

Therefore, he handed over the matter of building a general school to the Taoist temple. The Taoist temple has a well-lit temple where students can sit, no matter what they worship, it can shelter them from the wind and rain, and let them concentrate on class. In this way, he only needs to prepare the teaching materials. The cost will be much less.

As for whether the Taoist temple will take the opportunity to participate in some parallel goods and teach Taoist classics to those schoolchildren, he doesn't care. When it was handed over to Taoism, it did not mean that they took the opportunity to promote Taoist thought. Because in Taoist thought, he has participated in a lot of concepts to maintain ecology and explore the mysteries of the world.

If heaven and man are united, the destruction of nature will naturally fight back in the future, and all sins will return to human beings. Also, to explore everything in this universe is the way, and the deeper the exploration, the more in line with the avenue. There is a way for everything..., which can be regarded as paving the way for scientific research.

It is not possible to completely press on Taoism, and Buddhism can be considered. The expansion of Taoism has caused panic in Buddhism, although after Li Chen came to power, there was no ban on Buddhism, but it will take time for Buddhism to recover.

Moreover, Li Chen is not forbidden to be a Buddha, but he also issued some bans, first of all, it is forbidden to use the same cast Buddha, which is very strict, absolutely prohibited, and it is found that the temple will be sealed, the temple property will be confiscated, and the monks will all return to the world.

In addition, temples were also forbidden to set up theaters, which was the same as the Song Dynasty, and the rise of Washe in the Song Dynasty was due to the prohibition of setting up theaters in temples, which led to the rise of folk entertainment venues. This is a bit harmful to Buddhism, and the ban on setting up theaters is tantamount to cutting off a way for Buddhist ships to call and a source of income.

You think that's the end of it? Wrong, Li Chen's tax collection has already received a frenzy. All temples have temple property, including Taoism. Only one part of the temple property is exempt from tax, and the rest is taxable. Li Chen didn't throw off the outsiders.

It's not just the temple property, because the whole Tang Dynasty is collecting taxes on the shelves, and the temple's premises are also taxed, so don't even think about running away. Also, every monk has to collect money.

Li Chen wantonly distributed degrees, and he had them if he wanted, but he was in financial difficulties, so he sold them to make money and subsidize the imperial court. However, every degree has to be paid every year.

One degree is currently very cheap, but you have to reapply every year, and re-applying is another money, as before, applying for one, it is valid for life, that is in the past. Of course, in order to facilitate the people, Li Chen launched five-year and ten-year discounts, but of course he didn't get five or one free.

This is also true of Taoism, without exception. However, Taoism is supported by the Tang Dynasty and has a certain amount of tax exemption. This is a good deal.

But these are the little things. The imperial court strongly supported Taoism, and the prosperity of Taoism was the major event that made them really panic, and many monks had entered Beijing one after another, asking for reforms like Taoism, and Li Chen was still considering it.

Now that I think about it, since Buddhism wants to have the same status as Taoism, then you can do it yourself, and the imperial court will not support or oppose it, depending on how far you can do it. If it is done well, the imperial court runs primary and secondary schools, and Buddhism also follows up, then it is not impossible to consider giving Buddhism a little preferential treatment.

In addition, he is also ready to issue an order to let all localities set up their own primary and secondary schools, with unified teaching materials, and there will be rewards for those who subsidize schools. I don't ask them to donate much, as long as someone is willing to sponsor it, find various places, and buy some teaching materials. What is the teacher, it is best if someone is willing to support it, and if no one supports it, he can find teachers by himself.

It is those new army sergeants who can be used as teachers in the future. Teaching middle schools is not enough, primary schools should be enough.

As for the tuition fee, it is tentatively free of charge, and each person will be given a few textbooks, which is also free. At present, it is probably difficult to collect money. After all, it is not a school for scientific examinations, it is difficult to attract people, I can only hope to attract some students who are interested in learning, and there are also those parents who cannot afford to go to private school, but let their children go to school for a few years can also get a family.

The future goal is to have at least three years of compulsory education for all, but there is no way to do it at present, there are not enough teachers and no money. That's all there is to it.

After taking care of political affairs, he returned to the inner palace. A couple of hairy kids jumped and laughed and rushed out, shouting 'Daddy, Daddy.' ''Well. Li Chen squatted down, picked up two pink carved jade peck children left and right, kissed one of them, and tied them with his beard, making them constantly dodge left and right, and laughed constantly.

'Daddy, I want it too. The two slightly smaller children grabbed Li Chen's trouser legs and begged for a hug, Li Chen squatted down and picked them up, and they also kissed each other. Then he held the two smaller dolls in his hands, and the larger ones spun around in front of his feet, and the father and son walked in like this.

These are Li Chen's children, as long as he goes down to the court and deals with political affairs, he will go back to the palace and hug the child, and Yang Erzhi can see that Yang Erzhi frowned, "Sage, the ancestors have clouds, and the gentleman holds his grandson but not his son." ’

Yang Er is the most old-fashioned, but he always persuades Li Chen not to spoil children like this, Li Chen is always out of the hall, Xiaohong is snickering on the side, Su Xiaoxiao is holding a baby in her hand, and she is also laughing and looking at it. Chao helped Zheng out and said with a smile, "If you want to hug it, your own family, what's the matter." ’。

Li Chen's inner palace is very small, basically half of what he used to get. This half, after deducting the Yanying Palace, the Xuanzheng Palace, and the Ayaqi Palace, a few places for deliberations, are even smaller.

After the original novelty, Li Chen had long been impatient with the size of Daming Palace. Such a large palace has a lot of manpower to maintain, a lot of money, and trouble, and now there are not many eunuchs left, all of them are healthy women, and it is very troublesome to maintain such a large place.

With the ether pool as the boundary, the north is taken to the public, the school, the Hanlin Academy or something. The rest of the place is small, and there are quite a few palaces, which seem to him to be enough.

The place is smaller, and the family often stays together. There will be no separate things, and there are not so many worries, a few children, usually their mothers are taken care of, and the girls basically have some knowledge, and it is no problem to take care of the children and enlighten the children, and the older ones will be sent to primary school.

'Have you been well-behaved today, have you listened to your mother's words?' ''Yes, I'm the best, I have helped my mother clean up. Mom and Dad, naturally Li Chen taught the children to read.

The palace is small, the family lives very happily, and the children don't have so many intrigues and play together all day long. Although a big factor is that they are still young, Li Chen believes that such an environment is cast to cultivate normal children, and it will not be like in TV and novels.

'Dad, tell a story, tell a story. The two of them had a tugging in their arms, asking Li Chen to tell the story. Yoji said angrily, "Let's have dinner first." Mother, don't give your child so much sugar in the future, and don't eat dinner. ’

Eat first, then tell bedside stories before going to bed. Li Chen coaxed the children to the table and told them sternly, if anyone doesn't finish the meal, there will be no bedside stories in the future, and they can't eat sugar, and a few babies finished the meal with sad faces. When he went to bed at night, Li Chen took a children's book and began to tell the story, telling a thousand and one nights.

This is not written by Li Chen, this is collected. After opening up the trade with Da Shi, Li Chen began to plan to import their books, including this one.

Now the Great Food, although there are continuous man-made disasters, the Black Clothes Diet has entered a half-life, and the Arab Empire, which was once very strong, is now constantly suffering from internal troubles, and there are no external troubles, but domestic rebellions are frequent.

The territory was divided by warlords, which once extended to the Abbasid dynasty on the border with the Tang Dynasty, and now is losing the entire eastern territory, the Persian region, and establishing the Tahir dynasty. In the west of North Africa, there was also a rebellion. Egleb, establishing the Egleb dynasty.

Locally, various uprisings have emerged one after another. Because of the Abbasid dynasty, the oppression of peasants and craftsmen was so great that rebellions are now frequent.

However, Li Chen knew that when the Turks came, the Abbasid dynasty would enter a period of revival. Their golden age is not over.

It's just that all this has nothing to do with Li Chen, for the time being, there is not much intersection between the Tang Dynasty and the Abbasid Dynasty. In addition to trade, what Li Chen now attaches importance to is to absorb the culture of big food.

The big cannibal is not the conservative, closed, and stubborn big eater that came later. They are diligent in absorbing Western culture and deducing their own characteristics, no matter what aspect of it.

Li Chen remembered that they once shouted that the ink obtained by scholars is more precious than the blood of martyrs. At the same time, it also rewards translation, vigorously absorbs Greek culture, rewards translation, and one pound of manuscript paper can be exchanged for one pound of gold. This makes the big cannibals, and many achievements are extraordinary for a long time to come.

It is they who, now and for centuries to come, continue to invent, innovate, and make significant contributions in medicine, philosophy, psychology, mathematics, physical chemistry, and social sciences. It promoted the development of Western science in the future.

Of course, Li Chen will not miss it, he continues to buy their books and translate them into Chinese, whether it is the achievements of the heavenly people, or the original Greek and Luo civilizations, he will try his best to introduce them. The sea is inclusive, and there is tolerance. He hopes to continue to absorb Western culture to make Datang further in all aspects.

He is proud of the Datang culture, but the Datang culture has never been self-contained, constantly absorbing all kinds of imported products, removing the chaff, and having a brilliant Datang culture.

It's just that, thinking of this, he frowned slightly, is it time to establish a navy, as the situation in the sky is corrupted, there are more and more pirates, making the ships coming and going in the sky quite unsafe. However, even if a navy is built, it will not be possible to go so far to escort the ship.

Immediately, he put this idea aside for the time being, and now it is important to tell the child about it. (To be continued.) )
