Chapter Ninety-Five: The Spark Fang

It is precisely because of the collapse of the thirteen high-ranking officials and nobles that everything will continue smoothly in the early stage of college enrollment.

However, these nobles are clearly not going to rest on their laurels.

If you can't make a big move, then make a small move.

Mo Jun's slogans of 'free admission' and 'food and lodging' are a great opportunity for these nobles to take advantage.

Compared to ordinary civilians.

The descendants of each of these nobles are much more.

If you add all kinds of concubines, collateral bloodlines, and illegitimate children······ Wait, a clan can have at least dozens of bloodline descendants.

And just pick among them, and you can pick out more than a dozen school-age children.

If these nobles were allowed to throw these heirs into the 'New Academy' at will, it would not only put a greater burden on the Academy's finances, but more importantly, they would also take away the admission qualifications of other ordinary civilians.

Even many children of the nobility received the task from the very beginning, not to enter the academy to study, but to go inside to sabotage and disrupt the normal order of the academy.

A lot of aristocrats are not stupid.

At first, they may not have seen Mo Jun and Ying Zheng's intentions, but when the new academy began to recruit students, they immediately reacted.

These nobles wanted to assert their rights and positions, and did not want anyone in this world to threaten their privileges, even if it was only the slightest possibility.

But alas, times have changed.

These aristocrats secretly made some small moves behind their backs, they thought that Mo Jun would play this game with them, but in Hanzhong today, Mo Jun is the one who makes the rules.

As for fairness?

Are you kidding.

Mo Junke never said that this time the admissions would be fair.

He said that in this enrollment, all nobles and commoners are treated equally, but the 'view' in this equal treatment is Mo Jun's own eyes.

Mo Jun never thought of eliminating class and privilege, and even he himself maintained the existence of class and privilege.

For example: the main campus of the new college.

The main academy located in [Shengping Town] is the only academy that does not recruit students, and seventy percent of the admission qualifications in this academy are given to some of the top nobles of the current Qin State.

Twenty percent went to wealthy landlords who contributed a lot of 'investment' to the academy.

The last talent is reserved for some people who have passed the assessment, that is, the so-called 'genius'.

Mo Jun never minded the existence of privilege and class, because privilege and class themselves are one of the driving forces that motivate human beings to strive upward.

What he wants to break is 'monopoly' and 'solidification'.

Mo Jun knew very well that in this enrollment, a considerable number of civilians were sent to the academy for the sake of 'eating and drinking', and even with the idea that the academy could help them raise their children for free.

But he didn't care.

Because it only takes one percent of these children, or even one in a thousand, to be able to achieve something, and that's enough.

After all, for the vast majority of people at the bottom.

In fact, no one knows whether reading can bring benefits to people, and they can't even say what the use of reading is.

And many people understand that even if they read the book, they may not be able to become a talent in the future.

But, what if?

The academy built by Mo Jun is like a candle flame on the dark road, although the light is very faint, but it represents a glimmer of hope.

Man is a very tenacious and terrifying creature.

Ages.

I don't know how many heroes and heroes have made feats that have been passed down through the ages with a faint glimmer of light.

And when these faint rays of light begin to ignite, they will eventually cause a prairie fire.

"By the way, those nobles who apply for admission don't have to be driven away, they just need to keep three people in each family according to the rules. In addition, tell all the college teachers to maintain the order of the college, and if anyone dares to make trouble, you don't have to be polite. ”

"Yes!"

Chen Jing responded.

In fact, Mo Jun's last sentence is a bit too much, and the relationship between Mr. College and his students in these years is not as harmonious as in later generations.

If a student dares to make trouble in class, he will be punished severely or expelled from the college.

However, in order to prevent someone from taking advantage of the authority of the nobles and causing chaos in the academy, Mo Jun still said more.

"In addition, in the next period of time, there may be many people from other places who come to Hanzhong to study, and you, as a county guard, must also be prepared accordingly."

"Xia Guan understands."

The academy built by Mo Jun this time was built in the pattern of later generations, although the scale is not large, but a academy can accommodate at least a thousand people.

Other words.

If all the colleges are full, they can absorb more than 100,000 students at the same time.

The total population of Hanzhong today is only a hundred thousand, and it is obviously impossible for Hanzhong alone to meet the needs of the academy, so as early as many days ago, Yingzheng had already sent people to various counties and counties in the Qin State to carry out propaganda.

And this is also a good opportunity for Mo Jun to absorb the population of Hanzhong.

There is a severe shortage of labor in Hanzhong today.

Since Mo Jun expropriated the fields in the hands of the old aristocratic forces and redistributed them in the form of 'semi-public ownership', the fields in the entire Hanzhong have been like magic, with at least two or three hundred thousand acres of farmland added out of thin air.

In addition, Mojun bought a large number of ploughing cattle later, and cooperated with [Quyuan Plow] to reclaim a large number of new fields.

Time.

With the current population of Hanzhong, just cultivating farmland is faintly inadequate.

Not to mention that Hanzhong is still engaged in large-scale industry, building roads, bridges, iron smelting, and paper making······ and the coolies needed for all kinds of business development.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't do it, Mo Jun would really want to break all the population of Hanzhong into two now.

Not to mention that in the second half of this year, the second half of [Qinping Avenue] will be officially opened, and by then there will be more businessmen passing through Hanzhong, and the demand for all kinds of labor will be greater.

Therefore, in the second half of this year, according to Mojun's plan, Hanzhong will recruit at least 50,000 people from the outside world at the beginning, and there will be no upper limit.

The task is not easy.

Although the standard of living in Hanzhong is now known everywhere, in this era, most civilians have a kind of reluctance to leave their homeland.

Unless there are some force majeure natural and man-made disasters, even if life is difficult, most people will choose to guard their family property and will not leave easily.

However, it won't be long before the war between Qin and Han will start, and Mo Jun can just take advantage of this time to absorb the victims.

It can not only strengthen Hanzhong, but also give those who are homeless because they are involved in the war a way to live.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Mo Jun lay on the chair and muttered, "Hmm! Recruit 10,000 people, 40,000 people for war, and 50,000 at the beginning······ Speaking of which, now Xiong Da and they seem to have almost arrived in Nanyang! ”
