Chapter 2 Shanghu County Experimental Primary School, the young have learned, and the governance of Datong
Songjiang Mansion, on the official road leading to Shanghu County.
"Father, I heard that Songjiang Mansion occupies a very small area, and most of Shanghu County is by the sea, even if Li Jin is powerful, how many people can he recruit?"
Zhu Biao was very curious about seeing this Shanghu County magistrate.
Li Jin is the name of the county order of Shanghu County.
Zhu Yuanzhang also frowned, shook his head, and said:
"We don't know how much."
"But in the past few years, there have been frequent wars, and if Li Jin is really as Lu Mingyi said, then he has recruited at least more than 100,000 people."
Liu Bowen interjected at this time:
"I'm afraid there are more than that."
"I heard that in order to recruit displaced people, Li Jin has come up with a lot of policies to benefit the people."
"As long as the displaced people rush to Shanghu County, each person can drink at least three bowls of rice porridge every day."
"Not only that, but all the people who are willing to settle in Shanghu County will be given three taels of silver per household."
"And those who are unwilling to return to Shanghu County will have all their land and property confiscated."
"After his operation, whether it is a local from Shanghu County or not, they all rush towards Shanghu County."
"After so many years, I am afraid that hundreds of thousands of people will settle in Shanghai."
Zhu Biao was shocked by Liu Bowen's words, he didn't expect this Li Jin to have such great courage and dare to recruit so many people.
Zhu Di applauded even louder:
"Okay, this Li Jin has helped hundreds of thousands of people with his own strength, and he is really a rare talent for me."
Zhu Yuanzhang also stroked his beard and smiled.
If Li Jin can really save hundreds of thousands of people, then Li Jin can be regarded as a capable minister.
Queen Ma gently lifted the curtain, and even saw a lot of people, dragging their families towards Shanghu County.
Seeing this scene, Queen Ma sighed and said:
"It seems that the rumors in Shanghai County are true!!"
Everyone followed Queen Ma's gaze and saw so many homeless people going to Shanghai, they felt that this Li Jin was indeed not simple.
.....
The carriage kept moving forward in the bumps, and near noon, several people finally arrived in Shanghu County.
Gradually, the laughter of the people could be heard outside the carriage.
The people in the carriage heard this laughter, and the corners of their mouths were slightly curved.
The scene experienced in Yangzhou is really worrying, and in comparison, the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere here makes everyone feel more happy.
"Big brother, what are you listening to outside?"
At this moment, Zhu Di seemed to hear something and asked Zhu Biao loudly.
Zhu Biao was busy listening intently, and he heard the sound of children reading aloud.
After listening to it for a while, Zhu Biao learned to say with some hesitation:
"The Song of the Buddha of Apozi?"
"What kind of nursery rhyme is this? How come I've never heard of it? ”
Not to mention Zhu Biao, even Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen have never heard of it.
Zhu Di couldn't help but be curious, and poked his head out, wanting to see what was going on?
"What a tall house? Look!! ”
Zhu Di's shouting startled everyone in the car.
"Fourth, what's all the fuss?"
Zhu Biao also stuck his head out at this time.
As a result, Zhu Biao also became the same as Zhu Di.
"Dad, mother, come and see, this house is different from what we see!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang heard the shouts of the two, but his brows furrowed slightly.
Why is this prince still so unstable?
Immediately, Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma got off the carriage one after another, he wanted to see what the two sons saw, so shocked.
And then...
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang got out of the car, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
What appeared in front of him was a six-story building, which looked more than ten feet high.
The building is gray-white and has a boxy structure, like a large coffin.
Not only that, this high-rise building covers a huge area, and I am afraid that it has to have dozens of acres of land.
Inside these floors, Zhu Yuanzhang saw dense rooms.
Like a honeycomb, it is very evenly divided, and it looks very regular.
In the center of the top of the building, there is also a plaque engraved on it, which reads Shanghu Experimental Primary School.
"What is elementary school?"
Zhu Yuanzhang has never seen such a tall building in his life, let alone heard of any elementary school.
Liu Bowen also shook his head blankly.
Even though he knew astronomy, geography, and was familiar with history books, he had never heard of the word elementary school.
At this moment, on a major road, only their group stopped at the door of the building to watch.
The rest of the people looked as usual, as if they had long been accustomed to it.
It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang and the others have never seen the world.
On the contrary, there were many people staring at them, looking up and down curiously.
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt a little embarrassed, took a few people back to the carriage, and then said to the accompanying guards:
"Go find out what's going on?"
"Yes."
The guards walked away.
"It's all in one!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang and others listened to the child's reading voice, not only feeling relaxed and happy.
I don't know what they're reading, but hearing them is a pleasure.
Soon, the guards rushed back.
"Master, I've found out."
"Say!"
"This experimental primary school is a private school built by Li Jin, the county commander of Shanghu County, to provide a place for ordinary children to learn."
"There are at least 1,000 children studying in this school."
"The people say that the county decree calls it a six-year compulsory quality education, and that learning here is completely free."
After Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen listened, they couldn't believe their ears.
Private?
A private school with thousands of people? And these children are learning for free?
Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely surprised and said in surprise:
"Are you sure there are thousands of children in there? All for free? ”
"Sure, the lowly position is also confirmed to the people again and again."
"They said that there are five such primary schools in Shanghu County."
"Not only that, but there are five middle schools in Shanghu County."
The guard didn't dare to hide it, and told all the news he had heard.
Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked and speechless.
It is the lifelong wish of many parents to let their children get the opportunity to study.
And in front of his eyes, this scene was easily realized.
Liu Bowen also sighed on the side:
"The young have learned, and the rule of Datong is nothing more than that. Li Jin is really a strange person. ”
