Chapter 182: The Lord of the World, It's Their Scholar's Mansion!

"What?!"

Sima Nan was slightly stunned, and then couldn't help but jump up directly.

"The prince is wise, wise!"

"Liaocheng is saved, Lieqian is saved, and the people in the world are saved!"

"On behalf of the 300,000 people of Liaocheng, I am grateful for the kindness of the prince!"

Su Liyan on the side had a somewhat complicated expression, "Brother, what are you trying to do?" ”

"Thirty thousand taels of silver, it's enough to recruit another two thousand families."

"Now that the revival of Liaocheng has just started, there are so many places to use money, why waste it on this?"

"If you have too much silver to spend, wouldn't it be good to buy me a few more pieces of jewelry?"

Lu Yuan grinned, "Liyan, this is not a waste, but a money that must be spent." ”

"Education is related to the future of Liaocheng and the national fortune of the Lieqian Dynasty."

"If you save money on education, it is tantamount to cutting off your own arm."

On the side, Sima Nan nodded desperately, "The prince is wise, the prince is good!" ”

Su Liyan still didn't understand, but she had to snort coldly and said reluctantly, "Okay, I'll go get him the silver." ”

"Don't rush yet."

Lu Yuan waved his hand and said with a light smile, "Sima Nan, you just said that you plan to open thirty schools in Liaocheng?" ”

"Then there must be a lot of people of insight like you around you, right?"

"The prince is right!"

Sima Nan immediately nodded, "Xiaosheng is in Liaocheng, and there are many old classmates who have studied hard together in the cold window, and they are brothers and sisters. ”

"They are talented, but they have not been hired by the imperial court, and they have always looked forward to running a school in the city and passing on their unfulfilled wishes to the next generation."

"However, at the beginning, Liaocheng County Ling was a corrupt official who fished and fleshed the people, and he only knew how to make money in his own pocket."

"Fortunately, now, the prince is here, Liaocheng is finally saved, and the common people are finally hopeful!"

Lu Yuan touched his chin and grinned, "Okay! ”

"Now, then, you go and look for your brother and brother at once."

"Then, let them mobilize their own connections and invite all the literati from the entire Liaocheng and more than a dozen surrounding cities to come here."

"This ......"

Sima Nan was slightly stunned, and his face was puzzled, "Why does the prince want to recruit so many people?" ”

"There are only thirty, which is too few."

"Even if a family can produce two students who have achieved fame, there are only sixty."

Lu Yuan grinned and said in high spirits, "If you want to open it, you will open three hundred schools!" ”

"Let Liaocheng and more than a dozen surrounding cities and counties, as well as townships, towns and villages, be covered by the school."

"Let the dolls learn to speak, and there will be books to read!"

At this moment, in Sima Nan's eyes, Lu Yuan's figure was as majestic as a god.

The world only praises Confucius and Mencius for teaching without class, and teaching and learning from each other.

But compared with the prince of the world, what Confucius and Meng did was not worth mentioning at all.

In this impetuous, cold and bitter Lieqian Dynasty.

The prince of the world is the vast mansion of all their scholars.

You can shelter the world's poor and happy!

Back at the mansion, Lu Yuan was in a happy mood and drank tea leisurely.

And Su Liyan crackled and calculated, and her expression became a little ugly.

"Lord Shizi, these 30,000 taels of silver are not a small amount."

"Most of the silver taels you left in Liaocheng have been used to distribute them to the victims who have returned to their hometowns."

"If there are another 30,000 taels, the government will be stretched thin."

"Don't worry."

Lu Yuan smiled and waved his hand, "Silver, there is." ”

"Why don't you go back and bring some more from the land of Luxi?"

Su Liyan couldn't help but wonder, "Lord Shizi, what are you thinking?" ”

"Why do you take so much money and do things that are meaningless?"

"Liyan, I just said, this is not a meaningless thing."

Lu Yuan said meaningfully, "It is the cornerstone of casting an unprecedented cause!" ”

Let's be honest.

Before recovering Rosewood and getting the "Teaching".

Lu Yuan is also ambiguous and half-aware about education.

It's just that sometimes I listen to Gu Shiqing's babble about "teaching without class" and "teaching with fun".

The left ear goes in, the right ear goes out, and it is only the wind next to the ear, and it does not enter the brain at all.

However, I read the contents of the "Teachings".

Lu Yuan really understood the importance of education.

At present, the system of selecting officials in the imperial court is based on the imperial examination.

At first glance, though, it's fairer.

But when you look closely, it feels extremely dark.

Let's take the simplest example.

Modern people often joke that if they go to ancient times, they will be a poor student at best.

But in fact, the vast majority of modern people simply can't reach the threshold of the poor door.

The so-called cold family must have been born by the ancestors of some famous ministers and generals.

It was only later that some accidents were created that led to the decline.

And if you want to call it a cold door, at least you have to have hundreds of acres of land at home, three or four rooms, and you must have someone to serve.

Crossing these thresholds is just a matter of having the qualifications to study and participate in scientific examinations.

The vast majority of ordinary people are either farmers, pigs and meat, or petty traders.

If you want to spend a lot of money to provide for a student, it is simply impossible.

In other words, as long as you can sit in the examination room of the scientific examination, you will at least be a small rich family.

It's too unfair for real civilians.

It will also make the imperial court lose many talents invisibly.

And what Lu Yuan wants to do is not just to open one or two private schools.

Instead, it follows the example of modern times and universalizes compulsory education in an all-round way.

This great undertaking is a great undertaking.

Compared with running Luxi or Liaocheng, it is many times bigger.

First of all, he must have the support of the emperor.

Secondly, at the beginning of the start, it will cost a lot of silver taels.

However, Lu Yuan firmly believes.

As long as this great cause can be achieved.

In addition, in the future, he reformed the imperial examination system into the college entrance examination system.

It will definitely make the officials of the world completely change their faces and change their atmosphere.

For the thousands of years of the Lieqian Dynasty, it is even more meritorious.

……

On that day, in the evening.

A large group of literati came to Liaocheng from the surrounding cities one after another.

I heard that the prince was willing to give money to fund them to set up a school.

These literati were all extremely excited, put down the various affairs at hand, and immediately set off.

Among them, there was an old scholar with a pale beard and old age.

He was seriously ill and bedridden for many days, and he was already terminally ill and dying.

But after hearing the news, he miraculously jumped off the couch in an instant.

directly ordered the slave to drive, drove 500 miles, and came to meet the prince.

In a short time, hundreds of literati and writers gathered in the palace.

The vast majority of them, like Sima Nan, have been selected for showmanship.

The most bullish one turned out to be a township test person during the Hongwu Dynasty.

The official residence of the prefect of Xiangyang, he is diligent and has outstanding political achievements.

However, seeing that he was about to rise to the top of his career and rise to the top, he was implicated in the Hu case.

only to be dismissed from office and seized, alone.

"Lord of the World!"

Sima Nan said excitedly, "Liaocheng and the surrounding cities, four hundred and seventy-nine scribes, have all arrived!" ”

"Meet the prince!"

Everyone knelt on the ground and bowed to worship.

Looking at the old man, who was too old, he almost collapsed to the ground.

Lu Yuan hurriedly waved his hand in shock, "No need to be polite." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Son of this world has gathered you here just to run a school."

"But what does this school teach, I don't know if you have a number?"

"Of course!"

Sima Nan said without thinking, "Nature is the book of sages, the way of sages!" ”

"Lord Shizi, all the scholars here are proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, and the subset of classics and history."

"When it comes to the talent of teaching, it is no less than that of the Taifu Taishi in the court!"

All the faces were proud and proud.

Obviously, he has full confidence in his talents.

Lu Yuan frowned slightly and shook his head, "No." ”

"Learn books, don't learn Confucianism."

"What's the use of learning those things that are pretentious, except for those who are full of mouths, who are empty-eyed all day long, and look down on this and look down on that?"

As soon as these words came out, Sima Nan and the others instantly turned a little ugly.

Those who are full of mouths are also empty-eyed......

Is the prince just pointing at Sang and scolding Huaidi to count them down?

Zhao Kuo, that is, the former courtier, stepped forward and asked cautiously, "Then dare to ask the prince of the world, what do you plan to teach in the academy?" ”

"That's a good question."

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, picked up a piece of paper from the table unhurriedly, and handed it to Sima Nan.

Everyone stepped forward to take a look, and their faces were extremely strange in an instant.

On the white paper, there are only six words and twelve big characters.

"Chinese Studies?"

"Mathematics?"

"Yangwen?"

"Mechanical?"

"Heaven and earth?"

"Materialization?"

Zhong Wensheng's face was complicated, and he asked puzzledly, "Lord Shizi, what does this mean?" ”

"Why have we never read these books you're talking about?"

"It's not a book, it's a discipline."

Lu Yuan said with a light smile, "Let every student choose their favorite field to study according to their talents and interests." ”

Immediately, he was unhurried and explained to these scholars one by one.

"The so-called Chinese culture is what you gentlemen are best at."

"Poetry and songs, general history, ancient and modern, especially the green history of the Lieqian Dynasty and the previous dynasty, must be remembered and familiar by students, and lessons must be summed up from it."

"Mathematics is ......"

After listening to Lu Yuan's explanation.

The scholars suddenly became even more puzzled.

"Lord Shizi, this ...... That's crazy, isn't it? ”

Sima Nan said with a wry smile, "As a student, you should naturally learn Bagu Wen. ”

"What's the use of reversing these numbers and symbols?"

Zhao Kuo was also puzzled: "Yes, Shiziye." ”

"I Lieqian is the lord of the world, and all nations are coming to the court, and it should be those small overseas countries who learn our language."

"What's the use of learning these foreign languages?"

The rest of the scholars also chimed in.

It is believed that the disciplines of machinery, heaven and earth, and materialization proposed by Lu Yuan are all useless things.

And, all of them name the most serious problems.

The prince wants to teach these things.

We won't.

"Listen, everyone."

Lu Yuan cleared his throat and said loudly, "Studying, not to participate in the scientific examination and please the king and the examiner. ”

"It's for the sake of knowing how to become a talent, in order to enrich experience, and to contribute to the century-old foundation of the Lieqian Dynasty."

"The six subjects that I have formulated are all well thought out."

"Even if there is something wrong, it is definitely more effective than those subsets of scriptures."

"As for you who won't, it's easy to do."

Lu Yuan grinned and said, "Please also be a student for a few days before becoming a gentleman." ”

"This son of the world, first pass on all this knowledge to you."

"Then, it's up to you to teach the children."

They are all famous people in the Liaocheng area, and they have a bit of a reputation in Lieqian.

Wouldn't it be a joke to go back to being a student again?

Sima Nan and the others were a little reluctant.

But even if he was reluctant, he had no choice but to agree.

No way.

If they want to run a school, they have to rely on the money of other people's descendants.

Be a student, be a student.

However, after Lu Yuan gave a three-day lecture.

All the scholars were convinced by the wisdom of the prince.

And there is no longer the slightest doubt about the necessity of these six subjects.

Lu Yuan's course is very eloquent and fascinating.

Coupled with the knowledge taught, they have never heard of it.

Every day and every class, everyone attends half an hour early, and no one is late.

Lu Yuan relied on the educational methods in "Teaching".

It took a month.

These scholars have all been reborn.

In the last class, he deliberately put his mind to six test papers.

Let all the scholars usher in the first exam of their lives.

And according to the final results, they were assigned the areas they are best at.

For example, Sima Lun and dozens of others are in charge of mathematics and physics.

Zhao Kuo and dozens of other people are in charge of mechanical ......

After Lu Yuan's training, these scholars truly became knowledgeable all-rounders.

Even in modern times, you can become a qualified teacher.

Look at these talents that I have worked so hard to cultivate.

Lu Yuan suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart that his stupid apprentice had finally come out of school.

I wish everyone had given them a teaching certificate.

He cleared his throat and said lightly, "Everyone. ”

"In the month you have been studying, I have ordered people to build schools in Liaocheng and the surrounding cities."

"Tomorrow, our school will be able to officially recruit students."

"You are in charge of a school for every six of you according to the subjects you are best at."

"Whoever teaches well, I will have a great reward."

"Thank you!"

Everyone nodded happily.

Sima Nan asked, "Lord Shizi, there is another question. ”

"How much does our academy charge for recruiting students?"

According to the custom, if you want to send your child to a private school.

Either it's a year of consistent money.

Either use some grain, bacon, eggs and other things to counter.

However, they are different in this school.

What they teach is not something that anyone can teach, like the Four Books and the Five Classics.

It is the six major subjects created by the prince, which is the only one in the world.

Naturally, the pricing of tuition fees cannot be the same as those of ordinary private schools......

"That's a good question."

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly, "Let's talk about all the schools in Liaocheng and the surrounding cities, ......"

"Nothing will be taken at all!" (End of chapter)
