Chu Hao handed the gift list to Zhuge Liang and said with a smile: "Kong Ming, you can also take a look." ”

Zhuge Liang respectfully accepted the gift list, and after reading it seriously, his face suddenly showed a smile, and he arched his hand: "Weichen congratulates the emperor, with these items, the weapons and armor of the great cadres and soldiers will be solved." ”

Then he asked: "As for the four billion taels of gold and the four billion taels of silver, I don't know what the emperor's arrangements are?" ”

Chu Hao said with a smile: "All this money is charged to the treasury, the country is in ruins, and when the construction of the new city is completed, you can carry out all kinds of workshops." ”

After Zhuge Liang heard this, the smile on his face became even stronger.

With the arch of his hand: "Before the minister entered the palace, he first drove to the Duanwang Mansion to meet the prime minister. ”

Chu Hao nodded and said, "Does Long Jun have anything to say that he needs to pass on?" ”

Zhuge Liang said: "What the emperor said is good, Long Jun hopes that the emperor can arrange some positions for the seventh prince Ao Geng and the ninth princess Ao Ren of the East China Sea, in addition, there are a total of four thousand mussel girls, one thousand young dragons, and eight dragons in the Yuan Shen period, which also need to be arranged by our dynasty." ”

"Although they are in the alliance team, they are all on the orders of the Dragon Monarch to help each other on this trip."

Chu Hao was silent when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he said: "I have seen the building ships of the Xun Dynasty before, the buildings are high and the ships are large, all of them are more than ten zhang high, led by the prince of the Xun Dynasty, and they go back and forth to the immortal mountains within the four seas to buy and exchange materials. ”

"If the craftsmen are allowed to build ships at this moment, they will not be able to see results in half a year."

"Since the East China Sea has sent a thousand young dragons, let the eight hundred of them be divided into four teams, for the Great Qianshui Army, respectively, by Ao Geng and Ao Ren, each with two Yuan Shen Period, each leading a team to the four seas to exchange for the strange things on the Immortal Mountain, as for the leaders of the remaining two teams, we will discuss it later."

"As for the remaining two hundred young dragons, one hundred young dragons are assigned as messengers, and now if the imperial court wants to contact the prefectures and counties, it will take a long time to come and go, and the dragons are good at flying, so for the time being, they will transmit the letters and chapters of the prefectures and counties, and at the same time transmit the news and appointments of the imperial court to them."

"There are also a hundred young dragons, so let them join the Ministry of Industry for the time being and be responsible for the construction of the city."

After saying this, he paused, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, thought for a while and said, "As for the four thousand mussel girls, stay in that courtyard for the time being, and wait for Cao Zhengchun to come back, and let him teach them the rules of the palace." ”

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly.

Chu Hao said again: "In addition, I have something I want to discuss with you. ”

Zhuge Liang bowed and arched his hand: "The minister listens." ”

Chu Hao said: "Presumably you have also heard about Fu Tianqiu, after the dismissal of one of the four Shangshu, his burden will fall on your shoulders, but your energy is limited, so I am ready to hold a scientific expedition." ”

Zhuge Liang's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the world has fallen for more than 100 years, and the ministers are worried that the scholars of the people have already forgotten the content of the Four Books and the Five Classics. ”

Chu Hao nodded and said: "I have also considered this matter, so this time the scientific examination is different from the past, it does not test the Four Books and Five Classics, and since it is the first time, it is just a test." After checking and filling in the gaps, the second or even the third scientific examination will be conducted. Wait until the country returns to stability before conducting the normal imperial examination. ”

After Zhuge Liang heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time, he also began to wonder what he should do if he didn't take the Four Books and Five Classics?

Chu Hao said: "The subject of the scientific examination is people's livelihood. The subjects of people's livelihood are simply divided into more than a dozen, divided into business, farmland, civil construction, education, and even winemaking and weaving, medical care, aquaculture, etc., in short, all industries related to the people, from teaching and educating people, down to clothing, food, housing and transportation, can be examined. ”

"This scientific examination is divided into three sessions, and after the first examination, the qualified ones will be sent to the counties as officials, responsible for the items tested by the candidates."

"For example, if there is a person who takes the field subject, he is a farmer after the first exam, and he is responsible for managing the greenhouse cultivation in a certain area and the farmers who grow in these greenhouses. And set him the task of recording all the plantings in eucalyptus. ”

"If within a year, the greenhouse grain production meets the standards of the imperial court, he will be added to the official rank, and if he is not qualified, he will be fined."

"If you fail to pass for three consecutive years, you will be dismissed from office, and you will not be allowed to take the test again for ten years."

"If the peasant was illiterate, let him learn it, and he was ordered to reach within three years the level of daily writing and writing of the recitals."

"As for the scientific examination teaching and educating people, he is a scribe and is responsible for teaching 100 people to read and write."

"If he passes the second examination, he is ordered to be in charge of all the officials under the subject in a certain county. For example, he was in charge of a hundred peasant officials in the county, and if he did not fulfill the requirements, he would punish him with his salary, which was not fixed, but closely related to all the peasants under his rule. ”

"For example, he governs a hundred peasant officials, and the annual salary is one hundred taels, and if a peasant official fails to meet the standards of the imperial court, he will be fined one tael. In the same year, if the fine exceeded ten taels, it was distributed to the peasant officials. ”

"Those who finish the third exam are the main affairs, and they are responsible for the agricultural officials and agricultural officials of the ten counties under the subject."

"If under his rule, more than five counties fail to meet the requirements within one year, they will be dismissed and delegated, and if they pass for three consecutive years, they will enter the household department in the fourth year, and the official position will be the sixth grade."

"All subjects are so on, after the first exam, he is an official, responsible for a certain area, or a hundred people, after the second exam, he is an official, he is in charge of a county, and after the third exam, he is the main officer, and he is responsible for ten counties."

After Zhuge Liang heard what he said, he thought about it silently, and then arched his hand and said: "This matter has never been done before, and the minister can't think of the disadvantages for a while, but there are so many people, where should the examination room be placed?" ”

Chu Hao said: "Put it in the Guozi Prison." ”

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly.

Chu Hao continued: "In the first test, there will always be mistakes and omissions, and you can optimize it later. When you go back, think about what subjects you need, and which ones these subjects belong to, and give me an excerpt when you go back. ”

"This matter needs to be dealt with as soon as possible."

After Zhuge Liang received the order, he left the Qianqing Palace.

After leaving the palace, he first went to Duanwang's Mansion and explained to Prime Minister Gui Cheng Chu Hao's appointment of the Seventh Prince and the Ninth Princess, and even the thousand dragons.

Then he returned to his house and began to think about how many subjects should be divided into people's livelihood.
