The first square on East Second Street of Dingdingmen is Lehefang, where there is Guozi School.
The second square, Zhengping Square, contains the Imperial College.
Guozixue is an educational institution, while Guozijian is an administrative institution. However, due to Shao Shude's personal request, Guozixue has more subjects and more students, so the Guozijian in Zhengpingfang was also expanded and a new school building was opened.
Guozixue is a department that Shao Shude attaches great importance to, so the expansion of the school building is proceeding smoothly.
The house of Chen Ning, wife of the prince and wife of General Zuo Jinwuwei, was swallowed up.
The house of Ping Zhenzhen (shèn), the governor of Changzhou, was swallowed up.
The house of Cao Lixu, who led the soldiers from the right prison gate, was swallowed up.
The Sihu of Fenzhou joined the army, and the house of Liu Yong, the lieutenant of Jingling County in Fuzhou, was swallowed up...
Next to the huge Guozixue, only the Confucius Temple and Anguo Temple remain.
The Confucius Temple has almost been built, and the ruins on the ground of Anguo Temple have just been cleared.
When Shao Shude passed by Anguo Temple, he couldn't help but take a look.
Anguo Temple is also known as Anguo Female Taoist Temple, where Shao Shude stayed last night.
He likes to go to Anguo Temple very much, not only because of the relationship between the temple owner Tuoba Pu, but also because some of the women in the temple have more "strange" origins. They are the kind of women who are shy to mention their past identities. Girls, Shao Shude pretends to be
Confused, the women also pretended to be confused, with a tacit understanding.
Guo Zixue arrived soon, and Xiao Fu greeted him at the gate.
"Don't disturb the students in class, go directly to your office." Shao Shude said directly.
"As ordered." Xiao Fu led the way first and entered through the small door on the other side.
As he walked, he sighed, King Xia was really informal, following him along this path full of weeds and thorns, if he didn't pay attention, his clothes would get hung up on the branches.
"Your Highness, we're here." Xiao Fu walked into the official office and said.
Shao Shude glanced at it. Well, there's not even a door. The conditions are a bit difficult.
There were not many "officials" in the Imperial College, and most of them were still running around outside at this time. There was only one secretary, one bookkeeper and one recorder in the official office. When Shao Shude came in, they all saluted.
After Shao Shude returned the gift, he sighed: "You guys have come all the way from Chang'an, but I can't give you anything good. Thank you for your hard work, Li Yixian!"
"Your Highness." Li Yixian stepped forward.
"Each person will be rewarded with four pieces of silk." Shao Shude ordered.
Everyone thanked him one after another.
"Xiao Jijiu." After Shao Shude sat down, he looked at Xiao Fu and said, "The Imperial College has opened an engineering school. This is the first time in history. Is there any criticism among the public?"
"His Highness has an order, who dares to criticize it?" Xiao Fu said with a smile.
He is telling the truth.
There are a lot of jokes about martial arts these days. Shao Shude wants to start an engineering school, and everyone starts it for him. Even if they don't agree in their hearts, what can they do?
The engineering school of the Imperial College in Luoyang actually has three branches: one is "smelting", the other is "construction", and the third is "water conservancy".
The smelting department has the largest number of students, followed by the construction department, and there are also many in the water conservancy department.
"How many students are there in the construction department?" Shao Shude asked.
"There are more than thirty people now, most of them are descendants of officials." Xiao Fu replied.
Shao Shude nodded.
Entering the Imperial Academy is not easy in itself. Since its development, it has basically been reduced to a place where the children of officials can gild and gain access to the imperial court. But that was when the country was in its prime, and now, it is different. The eldest son of the so-called noble children still studies martial arts.
Most of them are willing to study literature, let alone miscellaneous studies.
But there is an old saying that goes well, what is good at the top will not be good at the bottom. Shao Shude attaches great importance to these miscellaneous studies, so naturally some people follow the trend and want to use it as a way to get into the profession and win favor. They are not willing to let their eldest son study
If you want to study miscellaneous studies, let your second son or concubine study it.
Shao Shude acquiesced to this, even condoned it.
The children of officials came to study engineering, medicine, agriculture, and arithmetic, which were very important to his grand plans.
"Since there are so many miscellaneous subjects such as clear calculation and clear law in the national and dynasty scientific examinations, I plan to add a construction subject. What do you think?" Shao Shude asked.
According to incomplete statistics, there were more than fifty subject examinations in the scientific examinations of the Tang Dynasty. There are too many such as Ming Jing, Xiucai, Jinshi, Mingfa, Mingshu, Mingshu, etc. But basically only Jinshi is the most important.
, the Ming Jing is just okay, and the others are reduced to mere appearances, gathering dust in the corner. In many cases, exams are simply not held because no one applies.
It doesn't seem to matter if Shao Shude reformed the scientific examination and added a construction subject. As for Wu Fu, he likes it, so why can't he just coax him? Therefore, Xiao Fu only pondered for a moment and said: "It's okay for me."
"After passing the construction examination, you will be registered in the register and issued to the non-resident officials." Shao Shude added: "From now on, any construction work that costs more than a thousand yuan will require such candidates to design and sign the drawings.
Use the seal. If there is no seal, no work can begin."
Xiao Fu was shocked.
He is a smart man and immediately realized the deeper things contained in it.
"The construction subject is tested every year, and there is no limit on the number of students admitted. It is better to have a shortage than an overabundance." Shao Shude continued: "In time, I hope that every county in the world will have such construction scholars, preferably more than one."
Xiao Fu thought secretly.
This is clearly a new interest group. Once the world is at peace, both the government and the private sector will start a large-scale construction project after they have some savings. Every project needs to be designed by architects, and naturally a fee will be paid. This is artificial
It gave birth to a trade, and even if it was limited to projects costing more than one thousand yuan, it was still very profitable.
Why is it that no one studies or takes the exams for those miscellaneous subjects in the imperial dynasty? It’s not because there is little benefit, or even no benefit at all!
But this construction department seems to be different. It can actually get benefits. A project requires a design "touch-up" fee, which is much more. I'm afraid it will be more comfortable than being a county official and being a rich man in the countryside.
Not a big problem.
Considering that most of the people who are currently studying this are the children of officials, even if they are not legitimate children, the relationship network behind them still cannot be underestimated. If you really pass the exam, you will not worry about not getting business.
Life is not easy for a concubine from an official family. After his father dies, his elder brother may show some conscience and take care of him. It would not be surprising if he is indifferent and is kicked out of the house. If taking the business and construction major can make them live a prosperous life, there is no need to think too much about it.
, I must be exhausted and want to learn.
"Your Highness, I am worried that there is fraud..." Xiao Fu said.
"Fraud can be tolerated, as long as the subject can be promoted, these can be tolerated." Shao Shude's attitude was very clear, and it seemed that he had already made up his mind.
I just want people who learn new technologies and new knowledge to benefit from it, live a prosperous life, and inspire everyone's enthusiasm for learning.
When developing new things, we must not be timid.
When opening new tracks, there are still people who cheat on subsidies. But from a national level, when the policy was first introduced, wouldn’t you have guessed that there would be people cheating on subsidies? How is it possible! That’s just casting a wide net. Nine out of ten companies
You can cheat and compensate without even blinking an eye. As long as a family actually does it, it will achieve its goal.
People who come from official families are awarded casual official status after passing the exam. They have a certain social status and have a network of connections to help them take on projects, so their income is naturally very generous.
Among a hundred people, it doesn't matter even if 99 of them are purely trying to make money. As long as one of them really loves this industry and is willing to spend time studying it while having enough food and clothing and a prosperous life, then this subject
There is still the possibility of continuous progress and innovation.
This is Shao Shude's purpose.
If a time traveler just leaves behind knowledge, it will most likely be useless, and it will most likely be gathering dust in a corner.
Forcibly stipulating anything as an ancestral precept will most likely be useless, and will still lead to the demise of the people and the government.
You have to let everyone see the benefits and use them to guide others. Only then can new technologies and new knowledge not disappear.
Only by not disappearing can it be possible to make iterative progress and bring out the new, otherwise it will be in vain and leave nothing behind.
Shao Shude once put himself in the perspective of an official. Parents who love their children have far-reaching plans. It seems pretty good if his bastard son can get such a way out, at least when he is kicked out by his elder brother, he will not end up on the street. Therefore,
There seems to be no need to abolish this policy, and it may even be regarded as a "welfare" given to them by the King of Xia.
Officials left a relatively dignified escape route for their concubines.
The construction of government or private projects is more scientific and reduces costs.
Shao Shude took the opportunity to promote new knowledge, so that it would not be ruined and the government would die, and it even retained the possibility of iterative progress - what if some official's son was too idle but was smart enough to come up with a new theory and promote the progress of the subject?
Things that are win-win are the most vital.
"Since Your Highness has this intention, then I will do it. Say hello to the students in advance so that they can be more motivated to study." Xiao Fu said, "It's just that such elegant politics should be started in the new dynasty.
It would be better to recruit scholars, what do you think, Your Highness?"
Damn, you’re testing me again! Shao Shude smiled secretly in his heart and said, “That’s it.”
The construction examination is just the beginning, or a pilot. Shao Shude will patiently observe and evaluate the pros and cons. If the effect is good, it will be gradually extended to other areas.
In short, the core idea is win-win.
If you don’t benefit others and don’t form a community of interests, what motivation will others have to help you? Consciously safeguard your policies?
Being an official for thousands of miles is just for money, nothing else. Shao Shude is very clear about the nature of his bureaucrats. They don't have such a long-term vision to see through the changes in world affairs for thousands of years. Most of them don't have many ideals. Even if they have
, was also wasted little by little in the ups and downs of officialdom.
The scariest thing is that some people have ideals and adhere to them, but they think what you do is wrong, which is even more fucked up.
"The Imperial College is well run. You should have noticed that this is where I put a lot of my thoughts." Shao Shude, who had a kind face but a dark heart, looked at Xiao Fu and rarely opened his heart, saying: "In just a few decades of life, I should
I have enjoyed everything, and now I want to do something for the people of the world. Do your job well and I will not treat you badly."
Xiao Fu was appointed by default to be the uncle of Fan County, and he was given the title of a thousand households. If the errand was done beautifully, why would the Marquis of Fan County care about him?
"Your Highness has your orders, and you should obey them." Xiao Fu said.
"The emperor - the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers." Shao Shude said with a smile: "The house in the southeast corner of Zhengpingfang is the house of Xue Xuan, the founder of Xincheng County, Shangzhu State, the right-leading army guard general. It has not experienced war and is generally intact. I
I will send someone to repair it in the next two days and reward it to you."
This is a clear hint. Uncle Kai Guo, a big carrot has been dangled in front of Xiao Fu.
