Chapter 13 Shocking, Beyond the Times System

Li Shimin sat on the mazar and quietly looked at the book presented by Du He, his heart tumbling, like a monstrous wave. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is also a book about institutional reform, which is similar to the eldest grandson Wuji's "Law and Rites", but how can he not see the advantages and disadvantages with his eyesight?

It is true that the eldest grandson Wuji is unmatched in the law, looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, but the ancients are ancients after all, and their understanding of the law is limited to the situation. Although "The Law" is a new work by the eldest grandson Wuji, there are not many things in it that really belong to him. Most of them are based on their own experience, make a summary of the advantages and disadvantages of the thousand-year-old system in history, and then inculcate their own ideas according to their own understanding, make slight improvements, and turn them into a new system. Most of these things can be proved by history to show his correctness. Only a very small number of them are the legal system that the eldest grandson Wuji has improved according to his own understanding and has not been based on the system of the previous dynasty.

Du He's is different, his knowledge of the law is far inferior to the eldest grandson Wuji, and the changes that can benefit the people of the world before the Tang Dynasty have already made the eldest grandson Wuji included in the "Law and Rites". Du He can only write down the new systems that have been bred from history after the Tang Dynasty, and these systems are unheard of in Li Shimin's eyes at this moment, and they are extremely feasible, so he is naturally shocked.

Du He's rewritten "Law", like the "Law" of the eldest grandson Wuji, is divided into more than a dozen chapters, including all political systems, the establishment, selection, and duties of officials, and the punishment of corrupt officials for perverting the law, as well as civil control such as household registration, land, servitude, marriage, and family, as well as raising livestock, treasury management, and protecting official assets from infringement.

It looks the same as the eldest grandson Wuji, but the content is different from heaven and earth.

The eldest grandson Wuji gathers the experience of his predecessors and supplements his own things, saying that what is good is the strength of the family, and what is unpleasant is picking up the wisdom of the predecessors. Du He is actually the same as picking up people's tooth wisdom, but he opened the invincible golden finger, and he picked up the tooth wisdom of descendants, how can others know?

Li Shimin turned the last page of the second article, and the most impressive sentence in the second article came to his mind, "Civil officials do not love money, and military officials do not hesitate to die." This is what the national hero Yue Fei said, and in history, Zhao asked Yue Fei when the world could be decided. Yue Fei replied without hesitation, "Civil officials don't love money, military attaches don't hesitate to die, why don't you have peace in the world." ”

Du He introduced these words into the book, which made Li Shimin feel a lot.

Although it is a simple sentence, it shows the most critical problem of the military generals of Wenchen. Civil officials are in charge of the people's livelihood, which is related to the livelihood of the people, and the military generals protect the family and the country, and protect the stability of the people. If the Tang Dynasty civil and military can be not greedy and not afraid of death, the Tang Dynasty will be forever.

Li Shimin continued to look down, the third article is education, and the preface begins with a preface written by Du He: "Education is the foundation of consolidating the country and the source of national and national rejuvenation." If the youth is strong, the country must be strong! If the youth is weak, the country will be powerless and will be in danger. If you want the country to be strong, you should take educating people as the first priority......"

Li Shimin pondered this sentence carefully, and only felt that it was as if a stone had been thrown into the lake, and there were waves in his heart.

As a wise man, a promising gentleman who knows people and is good at his duties, he doesn't know the importance of talents. These words almost said to the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't help but praise loudly: "A good 'education, the foundation of the country', a good 'young people are strong, the country must be strong!'" ......He didn't have time to pay attention to Du He, and couldn't wait to look down......

The first part of education is compulsory education.

In the 21st century, which everyone is familiar with, compulsory education is not a rare thing at all, and almost every child will go through these nine years. But in ancient times, in the Tang Dynasty 1,500 years ago, this compulsory education was a fantasy.

However, in Du He's view, this compulsory education is inevitable and the trend of the times.

Why is it that there are 3 million households in Datang, of which only 1 percent are clans, and the output of talents is far better than that of 99 percent of the common people? It is not because the characters of the children of the family are born with a superior IQ, but because they have a unique learning environment.

Compare a mildly mentally handicapped person to an Einstein-level genius. If this mildly mentally handicapped person is carefully taught by more than a dozen tutors, but the genius does not know a single big character because he has no money to study, who will become a talent?

Undoubtedly, it will be the former.

In ancient times, people who attached great importance to farming, especially those who lived at the lowest level, had an attitude of rejection of learning, and felt that there was no need to study. But I don't know how many talented talents will be wiped out by this kind of ignorant and short-sighted thinking.

Compulsory education is the same as the military system of the Tang Dynasty, the prime of life in the Tang Dynasty had the obligation to receive training and serve in the army to protect the family, and compulsory education was the obligation of all young people to accept learning.

Compulsory education is undoubtedly the gospel of all poor families, and it can also cultivate talents for Datang to the greatest extent, so that those talents who could have achieved world-class achievements but could not study and study due to various environments have a chance to turn over.

As the emperor, Li Shimin has a more long-term view.

This compulsory education, like the library of the past, will be devastating to the world. This is a great thing for the Tang Dynasty, which is the dominant family, and for Li Shimin, who is trying his best to suppress the family.

Li Shimin stood up excitedly, walked back and forth left and right, pondered for a while, and asked, "Isn't this very realistic...... Although there are many private schools, they can't accommodate all the teenagers......"

"Therefore, before the implementation of this plan, it is necessary to change the current useless teaching system...... Du He despised the teaching system of the Tang Dynasty, and said solemnly: "Private schools are private in nature, only suitable for those rich children who have nothing to do, and they will not help much for the current situation of the Tang Dynasty." If the father-in-law is interested in education, then he must open a state-owned private school. We can call a 'private school' a school, built in a county and in a separate area, and a large number of aspiring teenagers are accommodated, and they are gathered together to teach together. ”

Li Shimin's eyes lit up, this method was something he had never thought of, and then frowned and said, "This requires a lot of expenses, right?" ”

Du He nodded without question, compulsory education here, naturally, cannot be like later generations, hanging sheep's heads, selling dog meat, is real compulsory education, of course, Du He also considered the economy of the Tang Dynasty, and did not write a stupid regulation of free tuition and miscellaneous fees, but reduced tuition and miscellaneous fees to a minimum, at a price that the public can accept.

Therefore, the school here is definitely not a place to make money.

And Datang has a vast land, and it is absolutely an astronomical amount to expand schools in every city and county. This kind of loss-making business requires a lot of determination and courage. Here also said: "It depends on whether my father-in-law has the determination to give it a go...... he saw that Li Shimin was already moved, so he provoked him,

Li Shimin glanced at Du He and said: "Don't come to this set, don't be excited, I have never lacked courage, but I don't want Yang Guang, and I don't do brave and unscrupulous moves." "What Yang Guang did may not be completely wrong, his Grand Canal is still beneficial for a thousand years. It's just because of his nonsense that good things have evolved into a mess.

Compulsory education, if it can be implemented, will bring significance to the Chinese Qianqiu, just like Confucius's education without class, which is better than the ten Grand Canals.

It's not that Li Shimin doesn't want to do it, but he doesn't want to drag down Datang's economy because of this.

He said faintly: "If you don't belong to your home, you don't know that firewood and rice are expensive, the gold and silver brought from your mansion have been used to build the library. Although my Datang is rich and powerful, sitting on the Silk Road, there is a boundary after all. Where do you have enough money and materials now to do this big thing......"

Du He was also silent, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, there is no money, no matter how advanced compulsory education is, how conducive to cultural development and social progress, it will not help.

"By the way, Qian, my son-in-law has a lot of ...... here" Du He suddenly thought of the paper mill, after his improved papermaking technology is now all over Datang, cheap paper flows into thousands of households, accounting for 80% of Datang's share.

As the boss behind the scenes, Du He is also very rich now, he said: "Looking back, the son-in-law donated all the profits of papermaking over the years to the imperial court, which should be a lot of money." ”

Li Shimin was stunned at first, and there was also a warmth in his heart. He had no selfish heart and planned to dedicate papermaking to the imperial court, so that the imperial court could promote papermaking. However, the Tang Dynasty strictly forbade officials to engage in business, even the relatives and family members of officials. As the emperor, Li Shimin naturally cannot violate this law. At that time, he acquiesced to the establishment of a factory by Duhe to carry forward the art of papermaking. Just because he believes that Du He is not a greedy person, but also recognizes his contributions.

Li Shimin didn't know how much Du He had earned, but the taxes paid by the papermaking industry over the years were astronomical, and whenever he thought of it unintentionally, he would feel red-eyed.

Unexpectedly, when the money was used, Du He would not hesitate to donate the money.

Just like when Du He handed over the gold and silver saved by Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin knew that Du He's move was completely selfless, and he felt emotion in his heart.

Du He didn't care, he was not a miser, with his current status, he didn't worry about food and clothing at all, money was just a number for him, and it didn't mean anything. Donate or not, it doesn't have any impact on his life, and he doesn't care at all.

Next, he proposed a method of fundraising. Businessmen have the same name, and they can make up for the remaining amount by asking wealthy businessmen from all over the world to donate money through the situation of erecting monuments on campus.

Li Shimin only read three articles and already felt his blood boiling, so he immediately stopped paying attention to Du He and continued to read.
