Ministry of Education of the Chinese Empire.

Chen Shao is listening to the plan of the Imperial Ministry of Education for the new year, at the beginning of the chalk did not mean that there was a shortage, but the production had been stopped, a dust-free chalk was in trial production, and the previous chalk had all stopped production. The chalk used is in the inventory, so there will be a gap in the chalk, but this problem has been perfectly solved, the dust-free powder test production has ended, and the official large-scale production, as long as it is not wasted, you can have as much chalk as you want.

In the new year, there is a need to invest more money in the education sector, which has always been paid for by the royal family, and now it is no exception. Part of the 30% stake held by Longteng Group Royal (data changed below) will be used to pay for education. At the beginning of the establishment of the Chinese Empire, Chen Shao stipulated that education and military affairs were all under the responsibility of the royal family. Military spending is paid by the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Finance, but much of the cost of education is paid for by the royal family, and the Imperial Ministry of Finance is only part of the expenditure.

Some engineering issues, such as the construction of new schools, were the responsibility of the Imperial Ministry of Finance. Books and teaching facilities, as well as teachers' salaries, are paid by the Crown, and since the education system is free, the daily expenses of the students are also paid by the Crown. Fortunately, there is a work-study program that can alleviate the education expenses, otherwise relying on the increasing education expenses every year, it will be enough for Chen Shao to have a headache.

"Your Majesty, there are currently 23 universities under construction in the Empire, high schools and junior high schools are under construction, and village schools are opening all over the country. Calls for a policy of free reading are high, and the number of students in the country is likely to double this year. However, there are still some individuals who have not yet realized the benefits of reading, and we are actively looking for ways to persuade all children to sit in spacious and bright classrooms and learn about various cultures. ”

……

"It's a good thing that there are more students, and this year I will allocate more funds for education. Your main task now is to spread the word about the benefits of reading, and I'm sure more children will come into the classroom. Tell them that reading is free, that work-study is not oppressive to children, and that children are not required to do any work. This must be made clear to the people, so that they do not think that the empire is going to recruit those children to work, and the propaganda on this point must be in place. You can also ask the students to help spread the word and tell others how they live at school. After listening to all the reports, Chen Shao finally concluded.

For the people, sometimes Chen Shao is really helpless, and there are always a handful of people who are suspicious all day long. In the past, they couldn't afford to study, but now with free education, they don't dare to send students to school, and they still adhere to the theory that there is no pie in the sky. As soon as they heard about the work-study program, the handful of people thought that they were asking their children to work and earn money for their own studies. Every time he thought of this, Chen Shao didn't know what to say. Although work-study can alleviate the cost of education, it is all small things, such as helping to clean the road or helping to weed the farmland, which are all very ordinary jobs. But sometimes people follow the crowd, and many things will deteriorate.

There is another kind of person, Chen Shao, who is also very helpless, education is all voluntary, and he will not force you to send your child to school. But there are some people who have family crafts, they don't realize the benefits of the city, anyway, with the craft, they can't starve to death. For them, if they have time to study, it is better to come and help out and earn more money. This kind of person is more difficult to deal with than the previous one, at least the former one, as long as they recognize the real situation in the school, they will quickly change their attitude. But the latter kind of money has cost many officials a lot of energy, but the results are not very good.

Although Chen Shao is very helpless about these problems, they are not new problems. Since making a fortune in Guangxi, this kind of thing has been common, but after more than ten years of edification, the people there have also realized the benefits of reading and the government's policies. Now these problems have disappeared in the southwest, but in the vast new lands, such problems have resurfaced. However, Chen Shao is also mentally prepared, the country is big, and everyone has it, which is unavoidable. Some things can only be honed in by time, and there is no way to force them.

Just as Chen Shao walked out of the conference room of the Ministry of Education, he was greeted by a man who made Chen Shao stunned.

Liu Feiya also stopped, and saw the man in front of him, oh no, it was the emperor of the empire. Although he was dressed completely differently than that day, he didn't wear glasses. But Liu Feiya recognized him at the first time, he was Chen Yun's father, His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire.

Neither of them spoke, looking at each other. At this time, Wang Jie walked over and did not notice the expressions of the two, but said directly to Chen Shao: "Your Majesty, we should go, the new year's development meeting of Longteng Group is about to be held." ”

"Wang Jie, the meeting is postponed for half an hour, you go downstairs and wait first." Chen Shao glanced at Liu Feiya, who didn't walk away, and knew that the other party had recognized him.

Although Wang Jie was a little surprised, he didn't ask anything and nodded. When he left, he saw a woman staring at Chen Shao all the time, and now Wang Jie was slightly clear in his heart. But he didn't stop, but walked a little faster.

The people in the conference room had already left, Chen Shao opened the door of the conference room and said to Liu Feiya: "You almost recognized me that day!" ”

After finishing speaking, he motioned for Liu Feiya to come to the conference room to talk.

The latter did not hesitate, and followed Chen Shao when he walked into the conference room.

"I've been skeptical in my heart, but I can't believe that the princess of the dignified empire has returned to such an ordinary school." Seeing that Chen Shao closed the door of the conference room, and there were only lonely men and widows left, he felt strange in his heart, but he still answered Chen Shao's question very calmly.

When she saw Chen Shao just now, Liu Feiya was surprisingly not surprised, maybe she had almost confirmed Chen Shao's identity in her heart, but she still lacked the best evidence. And in her opinion, even if Chen Shao is not the emperor, his identity is extraordinary.

"I guessed too, but I was surprised to see that you could still face me so naturally, to be honest, you weren't surprised, but I was surprised." Chen Shao said very calmly, when Xie Yuxin said that he wanted to invite Liu Feiya to the palace, Chen Shao also acquiesced in his good impression of Liu Feiya.

"I'm surprised, but not by your identity, but by why the emperor of the empire sent his daughter to an ordinary elementary school?" Liu Feiya smiled and said. This question has always been in her mind when she saw Chen Shao.

"The Emperor is also a man, and so are his daughters. In my opinion, the emperor is a duty, not nobler than others, and the daughter of the emperor of the natural empire is the same, and privilege is something that I hate the most. There is no distinction between high and low in life. Chen Shao said very seriously.

"Seriously, I'm shocked that you could say something like that." In Liu Feiya's view, Chen Shao's words were too shocking, subverting Huaxia's perception of imperial power for thousands of years.

"There's nothing to shock about it, just put your mind at ease. Only when the heart is with the people can we better serve the people. Besides, you yourself think that you are superior to others everywhere, so how can you understand what the people need? In terms of children's education, they must also be the same as the daughters of the people, so that they can understand what the life of the people is like, and if they are not even clear about the life of the people, then how to govern a country in the future. "Chen Shao said this for the first time to a high-ranking non-government official, and he used to say these things often to officials of the empire.

Liu Feiya nodded thoughtfully, she felt that he was very knowledgeable in the last contact, and the second contact, she really got to know him.

"What are you doing at the Ministry of Education today? If there's anything, just tell me. Chen Shao then remembered that this was the Ministry of Education, and Liu Feiya must have something to do here.

Chen Shao's words made Liu Feiya sober up, and just now she thought about it, and then thought of other aspects. was interrupted by Chen Shao's thoughts, and he felt a little embarrassed, and a flush crept up on his face.

"I came here to apply for teaching aids for the next semester, and our principal was not in good health, so he entrusted me to come." Liu Feiya said.

"If that's the case, you don't have to apply, and you won't have to apply in the future. In the future, it will be sent regularly, so that you don't have to run around. In the future, you just need to report the number. Chen Shao said.

"Well, that's a lot easier for us." Liu Feiya said a little excitedly.

"It is the purpose of the government to make things easier for others." Chen Shao looked at his watch and said, "In this case, I will go to school with you, and I happen to pass through there." ”

Liu Feiya nodded, and then the two walked out of the conference room together. The people from the Ministry of Education would greet Chen Shao when they saw him, although there was no need to kneel and bow, but the basic etiquette was still required. It's just that today they were a little surprised to see a woman next to the emperor, and when they saw Liu Feiya's appearance, some people's hearts also lit a fire of gossip. But they didn't dare to ask anything, and it is estimated that few dared to ask blindly.

Liu Feiya and Chen Shao got into Chen Shao's car together, plus the two cars of the guards, and drove away from the Ministry of Education together.

Liu Feiya in the car felt the manly breath coming from her side, and her heart couldn't help beating faster. When the convoy arrived at the school, she got out of the car, and the flush on her face never subsided.

In the palace, Xie Yuxin also heard the news, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly. Before, she was quite worried that this would be too abrupt, but seeing that Liu Feiya already knew Chen Shao's identity, she would not be surprised if she invited Liu Feiya to the palace.

And Xie Yuxin also wanted to know how Liu Feiya felt about Chen Shao, if she didn't mean that, then she could only give up.
