After Xia Yuanji agreed, he immediately acted quickly, first of all, printing, when the times went to the Ming Dynasty, after the technological explosion of the Song Dynasty, the printing technology at this moment is undoubtedly extremely perfect and advanced.

There is not only more exquisite engraving printing, but also more advanced movable type printing.

In order to control costs, Xia Yuanji directly adopted movable type printing, and hundreds of thousands of copies of each book were printed in less than a month, and these books began to be shipped to the entire country through the government.

At the same time, an astonishing message was sent to the whole country.

The message is very simple, that is, His Majesty feels that the imperial examination is for the country's selection of talents, and it needs to be put into practice, and cannot be empty talk, so he decided to carry out changes in the imperial examination this year, and the selected examination questions are no longer selected from the Four Books and Five Classics, but from the new teaching materials.

As soon as the news came out, the entire Daming instantly exploded.

The first is the central government, and a Confucian official quickly wants to meet Zhu Di.

However, Zhu Di didn't even see him.

Or even a decree issued directly.

The content of the decree is very simple, not only a matter of certainty, but also a surprising news, that is, through the children's examination, once you become a Xiucai, you will be able to confer the position of teaching from the ninth grade.

At this moment, not only the officials were fried, but all the scholars in the whole world couldn't help but be fried.

Xiucai, also known as Maocai, originally referred to as the talent of the show, was first seen in "Guanzi Xiaokuang". Since the Han Dynasty, it has become one of the subjects to recommend talents, and in the Ming Dynasty, Xiucai became another name for people who are officially called "shengyuan".

At first, Xiucai's identity was not bad, there was a shortage of people everywhere, and if he was admitted to Xiucai, no matter how bad he was, he could become a local squire who dealt with the government.

However, with the gradual stabilization of the world for nearly half a century, the number of Xiucai has increased day by day, and it is no longer as expensive as it was at the beginning.

At this moment, Xiucai can be directly appointed as the instructor of Cong Jiupin, and this alone is enough to make people fry.

As for what to learn, it doesn't seem to matter that much anymore.

At least not so much at this moment.

After all, this is the Yongle period, not the middle and late Ming Dynasty when the main ship was stubborn.

In this early era of the Ming Dynasty, the will of the emperor was the will of everything.

Especially after the abolition of the prime minister, the civil official group had no ability or ability to confront the emperor's will.

Not to mention changing the imperial examination, even if the imperial examination is abolished, it is impossible for anyone to change anything.

In this case, Zhu Di's decree was quickly passed.

At the same time, a large number of textbooks also began to circulate throughout the Ming Dynasty.

Officially, hundreds of thousands of copies were printed in the first month, and by the time we entered the second month, that number had undoubtedly doubled.

In less than three months, these textbooks have appeared in the entire Ming Dynasty, Beijing, and thirteen provinces.

"Brother Liu, have you heard that this year's imperial examination will be restructured, and it is said that a new lesson plan will be adopted."

"I've heard that, isn't there one for sale in the county? It only takes 500 Wen to have a set! ”

"Really, fake!"

"Of course it's true, I just sent my servant to buy three sets."

"Thank you, Brother Liu!"

One by one, in the face of the restructuring, although there were a lot of complaints, a famous scholar still quickly came to his heart.

The price of special books is even cheaper than they thought.

Only 500 texts can buy a set, you must know that even the four books and five classics are worth about the same amount alone.

Such a price is almost affordable for today's scholars.

As a result, hundreds of thousands of copies of the first monthly issue were undoubtedly sold out, and the second month's print was almost sold out in less than a month.

But fortunately, the government still provides a steady stream of books, and even provides borrowed books.

I really don't have any money, I just need to register, and I can receive it.

There was hardly anyone who didn't get their hands on the books at this time.

And when a famous scholar saw the contents of these books, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

This is not because there are too many books, in fact, only elementary school textbooks are printed this time, and there are less than 50 books in total.

Compared to what they had to learn before, they didn't have much to learn, but less.

The previous test was the eight shares, and what you need to learn is not only the four books and five classics, but also the gaze of the sages, two thousand years later, how many sages, the gaze of the sages, these can be memorized.

In comparison, these fifty books are naturally a drop in the bucket.

The so-called language is no less than a children's book, but it cannot withstand the teaching of all kinds of novel knowledge.

The geography in particular, and the description of everything in the world above science, simply feel incredible.

geography, for the first time they saw that the world was so big.

It's so big that it's hard for them to imagine.

Science, he only knows a lot of things but does not know why, but in the books, they clearly understand these principles and causes.

Some people even can't wait to verify it.

And this verification undoubtedly surprised them even more, because everything described in the book turned out to be true.

Of course, more people are starting to learn quickly.

This year's imperial examination has been less than half a year, and since the emperor has ordered this year's scientific examination to be based on this book, they dare not have the slightest neglect.

In this case, the implementation went surprisingly smoothly.

There is no way, who calls the emperor the Yongle Emperor, which is close to the existence of the founding emperor, and the wealth provided to the Yongle Emperor in the Age of Exploration at this moment can be fully supported.

In this way, it is naturally not a problem.

As for having opinions, I can only hold them back at the moment.

Dare to make trouble, the knife of the Yongle Emperor may not be much more than the Hongwu Emperor.

It's also going to kill.

After Lao Zhu's large-scale killing, the civil officials who remained in the imperial court had already learned wisely, and naturally understood when to do what to do and when not to do it.

Of course, the most critical thing is that they can wait.

From Lao Zhu they waited for Jianwen, and from Zhu Di they could also wait for the crown prince to ascend the throne.

When the time comes, everything can be reversed and restarted.

What they have is time.

Zhu Di naturally understands the thoughts of these people.

But he doesn't care, he just needs to give him a certain amount of time, and the re-improved system is enough to establish a new system, and even if these people want to tear it down and start over, it will not be so easy.

Not to mention the rest, I am afraid that no one can give up this huge overseas interest.

His own crown prince is not a fool.

However, it is obvious that others do not know that Zhu Di has no plans to disclose overseas earnings for the time being.

At least until Da Ming developed to a certain level, he didn't have that idea.
