"In order to motivate students to be self-motivated, those who have excellent grades in the annual examination and are in the top 10 of their grade will be free of food for one year, and the rest of the scholarships will remain unchanged."

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Qunchen Mountain shouted.

Qingji also takes into account the well-being of people's livelihood.

If more than three children in a family are in school, the rest of the children are free of board and lodging, and do not have to be borne by the individual family.

The education expenses of the people of that country are left, and the meagre 1,350 yuan accounts for less than one-eleventh of a family's monthly income, which is completely trivial.

In the end, Qingji did not forget to explain.

"In addition, the commercial tax and the checkpoint tax will be added, and the fifteen taxes will be one."

Dawu's taxes are too low, which is indeed a serious problem.

You must know that it is stipulated when the law is changed in Qingji.

In terms of commercial taxes, Wu State levied taxes once every two years, and in the first year, 15 percent was levied every year.

In the middle year, 10% per year will be levied.

In the inferior year, five percent is levied every year, and there is no change in the event of famine!

In terms of land tax, the amount of tax levied is set at tithe one.

Regardless of whether it is a good year or not, Wu will be taxed 15 and 1, and in case of famine, it will be exempt from tax!

After Qingji ruled the world, in order to restore the people's livelihood and show mercy to the people, a new tax system was promulgated.

The commercial tax is levied once a year at 5 percent, that is, 20 percent of the tax.

The land rent tax is lower, directly 30 taxes and 1, and it is exempt from taxes in the years of famine.

Now Qingji has directly raised the commercial tax, fifteen taxes one!

Don't underestimate this 100% commercial tax, at least it can bring hundreds of thousands of taels of gold to the treasury of Dawu.

……

Guozijian.

At this time, the Guozijian can be described as very lively.

The predecessor of Guozijian was the "Jixia School Palace", which specially cultivated all kinds of talents for Dawu, including the six colleges of politics, military, industry, agriculture, medicine, and commerce, and the number of scholars was about 30,000 all year round.

The scholars who went out from the Guozi prison played a great role in all walks of life, and it was the existence of these people that created the incomparably powerful and rich Wu Empire.

At this time, Qingji kept her promise and asked Yang Ying to bring her own followers to the Guozijian to participate in the debate.

Yang Ying's followers are actually the same as her, women from noble backgrounds.

In ancient times, it was not that women could read and write.

It's just that ordinary people can't do this, and if they can eat and wear, so that the family can't go hungry, it's already a fluke, how dare they dare to let the girl go to school?

The cost of cultivating a reader is not ordinarily high!

According to the agreement, Qingji elected more than 200 scholars with voting rights to debate with Yang Ying and others.

If Yang Ying can convince these scholars to let them vote for her, then Qingji can "conform to the will of the people" and let the women of the world also join the sequence of compulsory education and have books to read.

Zeng Shen, who was with Qingji, counted the scholars and women who had the right to vote, a total of 363 people.

In other words, Yang Ying has to get 182 votes in order to achieve his goal......

Is this possible?

There is little hope!

This debate meeting was also unprecedented.

On the huge debate square, there were no less than 10,000 onlookers, all of whom sat on the ground and set their eyes on the debate platform with great interest.

Qingji was wearing a regular suit, wearing a long crown, and pressing the Longyuan sword in one hand, sitting on the square platform, and on the left and right sides were Zeng Shen, Bo Yao, Deng Xi and other important ministers of the court.

And it was none other than Wu Ji, the emperor's grandson, who took the lead in debating with Yang Ying.

Originally, Qingji wanted Wu Ji to "avoid suspicion", but this kid had to participate in it.

"Let's get started."

"Bell!"

With the sound of the gong, the debate was officially convened.

Yang Ying first said: "Everyone, I think women should also enjoy the right to read and write!" ”

"My Dawu implements 12 years of compulsory education, and stipulates that all my Dawu people must be enrolled, and the man is the Dawu Zimin, isn't the daughter's family the Dawu Zimin?"

"There are two xing of men and women in the world, such as yin and yang, men are yang, women are yin, complement each other, and both are indispensable!"

"Just like procreation, if there is no man or a woman, you must not give birth to a son and a daughter!"

"In this case, free education for all and compulsory education for all in Dawu, how can there be fewer women?"

"What the girl said is really a fallacy!"

Wu Ji immediately retorted: "Women are really different from men. Learn and excel, the girl has heard of any woman who has been an official throughout the ages? ”

"Huh."

Yang Ying sneered: "Sir, I see what you said is a bunch of nonsense!" ”

"Who said, 'Learn and excel'? Being an official is not necessarily the only way out for scholars. ”

"Moreover, who said that women can't be officials, can't be generals, can't enter the court?"

"Why can only men be officials, and women can only teach each other husbands and children, and be unknown?"

"The rules are made by people, and naturally they can be broken by people and pushed to start over!"

After a pause, Yang Ying looked around again, looked at the scholars present, and said loudly: "Second and third sons, women should enjoy the same status and the same rights as men. ”

"Therefore, men can be officials, and women can be officials. Men can read, women can read! ”

"Good!"

"Color!"

The women behind Yang Ying all applauded.

However, the scholar was indifferent.

Wu Ji said with a smile: "Miss Yangying, the heavens are entrusted to the Si people, and the division of labor is clear, just like a man ploughing and a woman weaving." ”

"What a man can do, a woman may not be able to do. Of course, what a woman can do, a man may not be able to do, and this is the magic of the Creator! ”

"It is not necessarily a good thing for women to marry and raise children."

Hearing this, Yang Ying looked displeased and asked, "This gentleman, are you discriminating against women?" ”

"Nope."

Wu Ji shook his head and said, "It's all out of the mother's womb, who would discriminate against women?" Who dares to discriminate against women? ”

"I just want to tell you that my Da Wu advocates virtue, and a woman is virtuous if she is not talented!"

"What are the benefits of my daughter's family reading and reading? Or what is the benefit to the country's social welfare? ”

Yang Ying glared at her beautiful eyes and said, "Sir, you are clearly discriminating against women!" ”

"Who says women are inferior to men?"

"Thanks to Your Majesty's merits, now that the country is governed and prosperous, women like us can show up and go out to work, enter the workshop to work, and earn money to support the family."

"Women can also engage in business, farming, medicine, work, and even become officials in the court!"

"All we lack is a chance, a chance to change our destiny!"

"If women can read and write, they may not be worse than you men!"
