Zhu Ma's clothes were on a tour, and the inspection was second to go out of the palace to get some breath and take a walk. So, she originally wanted to walk to her destination.

However, considering that the place you want to go is not close and walking will indeed cause great difficulty to security work, I finally arranged a royal carriage with an ordinary appearance, but actually a steel plate inside and a very comfortable interior layout.

This carriage was presented by several masters after the Chengdu Secret Construction Bureau was moved to Nanjing. It was offered by four wheels, with easy steering, and a yellow shock absorber was installed at the bottom.

Zhu Mei had tried it before and found that compared with the two-wheeled carriage in the Ming Dynasty, the four-wheeled carriage is not only more spacious, but also has a much smaller bumpy bump, making it very comfortable to ride.

She has ordered the royal family to cooperate with the court to establish the Ming four-wheeled carriage manufacturing factory, which is affiliated with the State-owned Department of the Ministry of Commerce.

As expected, four-wheeled carriages should be available for sale this month.

This time, Zhu Ma's trip was in a four-wheeled carriage, which was a deep experience.

Seeing the carriage leaving the Forbidden City, a red-maned horse was dragged to walk easily on the wide street, with almost no bumps, Zhu Niu became more and more satisfied with the four-wheeled carriage.

She said: "Let the Internal Affairs Office use the money from the treasury to purchase a batch of four-wheeled carriages to the ministers and the Military Council, and to send them to the assistant ministers, and to the gifts I gave them.

Well, let’s give one to the left and right censors, the head of the Legal Council, and the deputy director of the Court, and each of them.”

Liu Zhu, who was sitting in the carriage, immediately responded: "Yes."

And take out a small notebook and write it down.

As Zhu Ma’s personal female officer, she and Lian Qiao are both deputy general manager of the Interior Department, so it is appropriate to do this.

Dong Qiongying smiled and said, "This four-wheeled carriage is very fake at first glance. Your Majesty is really kind to you."

Zhu Mai said: "After all, they are important officials of the country, and it is nothing that I have to match them with a car. Moreover, the four-wheeled carriage has just been released and it is in need of publicity. If all the important officials use this car, the rich will definitely follow the trend and buy it."

Dong Qiongying said: "I'm afraid someone will put it at home for you and not use it, so that your Majesty's plan will be lost."

Dong Qiongying was born in Sichuan Tusi. She not only speaks, but also speaks more easily than others.

Zhu Ma was really worried when she heard this, and immediately told Liu Zhu, "Let the people from the Interior Affairs Office tell the important officials that this is what I gave them to them for use."

"Yes." Liu Zhu nodded again and wrote down with a small notebook.

Through the glass windows of the carriage, Zhu Mi can see the streets with many pedestrians and the shops all look good.

Even if the people dress simply or even carry patches, most of the people have rosy complexion.

This undoubtedly shows that most people in Nanjing have no worries about famine.

Nowadays, she not only uses customs tariff policies to encourage maritime merchants to sell grain from Southeast Asian Transportation to the Ming Dynasty, but also promotes excellent grain seeds in later generations efficiently.

Last year, the grain seeds brought from later generations and the second generation of grain seeds were all a bumper harvest.

If this is the case, the people in the capital of Daming still have food shortages, which would be a failure.

"Your Majesty, where are we going?" Dong Qiongying asked.

"Go to the west area of ​​the outer city." Zhu Mei-seong said without hesitation.

According to Zhu Niu, the west area of ​​the outer city belongs to the jurisdiction of Jiangning County and is considered to be an area with more ordinary people in Nanjing.

As for the place where ordinary people are the most common, it is naturally outside the city, but it is too far away, so it is too inconvenient for her to go.

Looking at the street view outside the car window, Zhu Ma asked: "Do you know how many primary schools are in Nanjing now?"

The tiger bird widened his eyes and said nothing.

Dong Qiongying shook her head and smiled and said, "I am a general, how can I pay attention to this matter?"

Bi Jieze, who was sitting opposite her, said: "Nanjing City has a population of millions, and there must be many children of appropriate age. Do you have to have dozens of primary schools in the city?"

Zhu Meiyu said: "According to the latest report from the Ministry of Rites, there are currently 36 primary schools in Shangyuan County, and 13 are located in the city.

There are 43 primary schools in Jiangning County, 12 in the city. This time, we have obtained the west area of ​​the outer city and there are several primary schools."

The west area of ​​the outer city was a name proposed by Zhu Mei, who drew from later generations. According to the customs of the Ming Dynasty at this time, it should be called a certain yard, a certain street, or a certain alley.

Huque couldn't help but say in surprise: "How come there are so many primary schools?"

Zhu Ma said: "Although the imperial court has ordered that after the establishment of primary schools, the number of students must be more than one hundred.

However, Nanjing has a large population, with at least 300 students in each primary school, and the number of students is as high as more than 1,000.

Even so, nearly eighty primary schools can only accommodate 60,000 to 70,000 children of the right age.

The number of population counties recently counted in Shangyuan and Jiangning has reached more than 1.3 million.

With such a large population base, there are not many children aged 60,000 to 70,000, five to ten years old."

After hearing this, I couldn't help but sigh: "There are 60,000 to 70,000 primary school students this year in Shangyuan, Jiangning, and the total number of primary school students in the Sanfu who have implemented three years of compulsory education is probably hundreds of thousands!

After three years, these first batch of hundreds of thousands of primary school students will graduate. I wonder how many talents can be provided to me in the Ming Dynasty!”

Zhu Meisu smiled and said, "After all, the basic knowledge of primary school professors is just some basic knowledge, and it is not enough to make them talents, but it is OK to become available people.

In the future, even if most of them cannot go to middle school to further their studies, having the basics of primary school will be enough to make them useful people.”

While watching the street scenes and chatting along the way, Zhu Mai Yu and her group soon arrived at the west area of ​​the outer city.

This area includes Yuhuatai, Xitian Temple, Dabaoen Temple, Nengren Temple and other attractions, but more are ordinary houses.

Looking from the car window, it is still very prosperous outside, but whether it is street buildings or residential buildings, it is obviously a grade lower than the inner city.

However, there are more small vendors selling street stalls than in the inner city.

"Is this Meigang? Jiangning No. 13 Primary School should be here. Please ask the bottom lane." Zhu Meiyu recalled the many primary school information she recorded in the west area of ​​the outer city and gave this order.

"Go down and ask." After answering, he stood up and got out of the carriage.

She had lived in Longtan Town outside Nanjing for a year or two, and was more familiar with it than others.

···

Meigang Primary School.

The official name should be Jiangning County No. 13 Primary School, also known as Jiangning No. 13 Primary School.

It is only because it is set up in Meigang and the students are mainly children in Meigang area, so it is called Meigang Primary School by the people.

Just like the other elementary schools around, they are called Yuhuatai Primary School, Huashenmiao Primary School, Wang Xie Primary School, and Zijing Primary School because of their geographical location.

After Bian Yujing and Bian Yulou were hired by Jiangning County Schools, they were assigned to Meigang Primary School and became a glorious primary school Chinese teacher.

After coming, Bian Yujing found that the conditions in Meigang Primary School were worse than she expected.

Meigang Primary School uses the original Meigang Social School house.

Originally, social studies were only used for children in Meigang Village to go to elementary school. Although Meigang Village is not young, there are only more than one hundred children who usually go to elementary school. Four or five scholars, five or six schools are used, and each person teaches two.

More than ten can carry out traditional enlightenment education well.

However, now children of appropriate age in the surrounding area have also come to Meigang to attend elementary school, with more than 400 students.

Compared with other primary schools, although the number of students is already considered small, the school is still not enough.

Although the above allocated relevant funds, it was hastily built a few large, semi-open huts to deal with it. It will take some time for the serious school to be built.

Bian Yujing originally thought that other primary schools were also so simple, but when she went to the nearby Wang Xie Primary School for exchange and study, she found that the conditions on both sides were very different - Wang Xie Primary School was directly in a mansion, and there was no shortage of them.

Room to do school.

Then, I saw that most of the students in Wang Xie Primary School were wearing brocade clothes, with fair and pink skin, and they were obviously children of wealthy families.

I think most of the children in Meigang Primary School dressed simply, or even dressed in patched clothes. Their skin color was not healthy, but most of them were rough and dark, and they obviously belonged to the children of the lower class.

Bian Yujing understood that there are differences between primary schools, just as there are differences between people.

Bian Yulou also saw this and often complained about the unfair affairs of Jiangning County schools in private.

Bian Yujing didn't say much, but became more serious and responsible in teaching.
