Lin Chuan and Jiang Wei stayed in the village for a long time, so they stayed in the county seat for one night.

The next morning, the two returned to Hanzhong City.

After Jiang Wei returned to the city, he did not go to the Hou Mansion again, but directly assisted Deng Ai to deal with government affairs.

Lin Chuan returned to the Hou Mansion to rest for a day, and was thinking about things in the study at this time.

Cao Jie watched Lin Chuan go out for more than ten days, and after returning to the Hou Mansion, he was also thoughtful, and couldn't help but be a little worried.

So Cao Jie came to the study, and after adding a new cup of tea to Lin Chuan, he asked gently:

"Mr. Lin, since you came back from the inspection, you have not been very happy, could it be that there is something wrong with the production base below?"

Lin Chuan felt her concern from Cao Jie's words, and motioned for Cao Jie to sit down and talk.

Cao Jie saw that Lin Chuan had plans to talk to him, and after sitting down, he did not continue to ask, but waited for Lin Chuan's answer.

"All the production bases are running very well, and the people in the counties in the county are living well."

Lin Chuan first briefly talked about what he had seen and heard during the inspection.

Cao Jie was relieved to hear that it was not the production base and the county officials who had a problem.

After that, he became more curious about what Lin Chuan was thinking.

"But what did you find wrong during the inspection?"

"That's right, this is related to the future development of Hanzhong County!"

As soon as he heard that it was an important matter related to the future of Hanzhong County, Cao Jie suddenly became serious.

Cao Jie can be said to have witnessed how Lin Chuan turned a war-torn Hanzhong into the prosperity it is today in just three years.

And Cao Jie's development in Hanzhong has also made his own efforts, from the beginning to assist Lin Chuan in handling official business, and then responsible for presiding over the recruitment of female workers into the production base, to now the accounting manager of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce.

Hanzhong County is not only the base camp of Lin Chuan, but also his future home in Cao Jie's heart.

Now that he heard Lin Chuan say so seriously about the future development of Hanzhong County, Cao Jie was naturally very concerned.

However, in her eyes, all problems are difficult for Lin Chuan, and she believes that Lin Chuan must have a way to solve this problem.

Lin Chuan then expressed his worries:

"The lives of the people are much better, and many people who work in the production base have saved up money to buy ploughing cattle, plus Quyuan plows and cylinder cars, and the agricultural development of Hanzhong County has ranked first in the Great Wei."

"The land that used to be cultivated by a family of five can now be cultivated by a family of three, and the production of food has not decreased much."

"This is also the reason why Hanzhong was able to establish a number of production bases again in just one year."

After listening to Lin Chuan's words, Cao Jie also understood the reason, it is precisely because of the rapid development of agriculture in Hanzhong that more people will be willing to enter the production base to work, and the scale of the production base will naturally expand.

"You're right, but isn't this a good thing for the development of Hanzhong County?"

Cao Jie still didn't have Lin Chuan's overall view, and couldn't help but ask strangely.

Lin Chuan did not directly answer Cao Jie's question, but mentioned the matter of the Great Wei Communiqué.

"Well, but I have a more long-term plan in Fangling County."

Then Lin Chuan told Cao Jie about the conversation between the child and the village chief that he finally heard in Fangling County.

Cao Jie, who understood the cause and effect, finally understood Lin Chuan's worries.

"Mr. Lin, Jie'er understands your thoughts, do you want to set up an official school in Hanzhong County?"

"What Miss Cao said is exactly what I am thinking about now is how to set up an official school in Hanzhong."

Lin Chuan confirmed Cao Jie's guess.

The education system of the Han Dynasty has developed relatively well, and after Lin Chuan came to Hanzhong, he also learned a lot about the education system of the Han Dynasty.

This time, Lin Chuan planned to set up a new government school in Hanzhong County.

The official school was the highest level of education and official reserve base in the Han Dynasty, and was divided into local official school and central official school.

Today, there is a county school in Hanzhong County.

However, the county schools in Hanzhong are all attended by the children of the scholar clan, and it is impossible for ordinary people to enter the county schools to study.

Since the official school is to train future officials, it mainly teaches poetry, books, rites, and changes, the Spring and Autumn Five Classics, as well as moral-related content such as the Analects and the Book of Filial Piety.

And the official school that Lin Chuan currently intends to establish does not plan to teach all of the above content, and he needs not a group of reserve officials now.

And Lin Chuan has now won over the scholars with gold and silver through the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce, and if he uses the newly established official school to train reserve officials from the common people, then all his previous efforts will be in vain.

Although the scholars of the Great Wei loved gold and silver, they would never tolerate anyone shaking the foundation of their rule.

Therefore, Lin Chuan never mentioned the imperial examination system to Cao Cao from beginning to end.

Now Lin Chuan is thinking about how to carry out mathematics, physics and chemistry education in Hanzhong.

Cao Jie was still a little puzzled by Lin Chuan's idea of setting up a new official school, so he asked again:

"Mr. Lin, now that there is a county school in Hanzhong County, do you think the school is too small?"

Lin Chuan was now worried about the textbooks of mathematics, physics and chemistry, so he said to Cao Jie casually:

"It has nothing to do with the size of the county school. The new official school I set up does not intend to admit the children of the scholars, but only the children of ordinary people. ”

After Cao Jie heard Lin Chuan's answer, he couldn't help but be surprised in his heart.

Since the establishment of the official school, the Han Dynasty has hardly recruited the children of ordinary people, even the private school also recruits the children of rich families, and now Lin Chuan actually said that he wants to run an official school that only recruits the children of ordinary people? !

"Mr. Lin, are you planning to readjust the officials of Hanzhong County?"

Cao Jie said to Lin Chuan in surprise, although she and Lin Chuan learned a lot of knowledge in later generations, and even knew about the college entrance examination, Cao Jie still didn't fully understand Lin Chuan's thoughts.

"Please think twice, Mr. Lin, if you really plan to cultivate talented children of ordinary people, you will not set up an official school, which is the enemy of the entire Great Wei clan!"

Although Cao Jie believed in Lin Chuan's strength, he couldn't help but remind Lin Chuan, and his tone was even more solemn and serious.

Lin Chuan couldn't help but laugh when he heard what Cao Jie said about being the enemy of the entire Great Wei Shi clan.

Cao Jie realized at this time that he was completely thinking too much, and couldn't help glaring at Lin Chuan with beautiful eyes.

"Thank you Miss Cao for worrying about me, in fact, the purpose of my plan to set up an official school is not to train officials, but to train a group of reserve personnel for the production base."

Seeing that Cao Jie was really angry with himself, Lin Chuan seriously explained his thoughts.

Cultivating reserve manpower for basic production?

Cao Jie gradually understood why Lin Chuan wanted to set up a new official school.
