Shi Tao was so angry that Xun Chen was overwhelmed with the intention of his trip. He didn't react until Shi Tao came to an end.
"Guangyuan, please forgive me for taking the blame. I have a word that I can't speak up."
"But it's okay." Shi Tao smiled and seemed to be prepared.
"You are friends with Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, and you are invited to come. You can become an official and become a man, so why should you study farming? Didn't you hear that a gentleman is not a good man? Fan Chi asked about the farming, and the Master blamed him."
Shi Tao's eyes flashed slightly. "Mr. Xun may not be clear about the situation of the court when he first arrived. Being a lord is indeed a good choice, but Mr. Xun knows how many people want to be a lord, and how many lords can be in three years.
Appointment for outgoing?”
Xun Chen said: "It is indeed rare to be a Lang official, but it should not be difficult for you to be friends with Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong."
"As Xun Jun said, it is indeed not difficult, but this is not the purpose of me being invited by Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong. The purpose of Xun Jun coming to Chang'an is probably not to seek an official position, right?"
Xun Chen was embarrassed for a moment. "Your purpose is..."
"Assist the left emperor and jointly prosper the kingly way."
Xun Chen couldn't help but mocked, "Is it true that raising pigs in Linyuan is to promote the kingly way?" Then he felt that this was inappropriate, and he quickly remedyed, "Of course, being able to make people in their seventies eat meat is also part of the kingly way. It's just that you are very good.
Talent should do more beneficial things. There are many people who can do things like raising pigs.”
"Raising pigs is just one of the tasks of the Agricultural School. Compared with pigs, the Agricultural School has more important things to do."
"for example?"
Shi Tao played with the cup in his hand and said quietly: "For example, if you double the yield per mu, maybe it is not so urgent to travel to the field."
Xun Chen was stunned and subconsciously turned his head to look at Mao Jie.
Mao Jie was also stunned and was excited. "Can Mr. Shi say in detail?"
"The court asked to save the land not to be enemies with the aristocratic families, but because the aristocratic families occupied the land, hoarded the goods, and watched the people endure hunger. Food is the most important thing for the people. If food and clothing cannot be maintained, peace will not be obtained.
, let alone the kingly way.”
Mao Jie nodded repeatedly and expressed his agreement.
He followed Cao Cao to fight and knew the importance of food. He was not full of food and everything he talked about was fake.
"Diving the fields is to allow the people to have the foundation of their lives and not be hungry. However, most of the land is in the hands of aristocratic families. If you don't save the fields, where can you get the land? But if you change your idea, if the yield per mu is not two stones and three stones, it is more
Gao, don’t you need so much land?”
Xun Chen immediately woke up.
People always have a limited appetite. They are too little to live. But after reaching a certain amount, it makes no sense to have more.
If the yield per mu can be increased, the land needed to support the family will be much less, and it will be less urgent to spend the land.
Compared to the argument, perhaps the agricultural school is the real hope to alleviate the land problem.
But... it is really embarrassing to realize the kingly way, and it is really embarrassing to rely on the marrying villain. If so, who will care about the teachings of saints in the future? Will such scholars still be disciples of Confucianism?
But I have to admit that the method Shi Tao mentioned is indeed one of the best ones at present.
Xun Chen's mind was a little confused.
"Studying agriculture may increase the output. However, if you increase the output, your household registration will increase. You still have to go to the fields after all." Mao Jie pondered: "Besides, even if you go to the fields, this problem cannot be solved. How can you achieve the kingly way?
?”
Shi Tao praised: "Mr. Mao is worthy of being a famous scholar with experience in governing the country, and he hits the nail on the head. Agriculture cannot solve all problems, but it is at least helpful. I have limited abilities and can do my best to realize the kingly way, so I am satisfied.
As for this fundamental way, let’s worry about the great talent like Xun and Mao. As the emperor said, if the king and his ministers are united and the four people work together, they can always think of a solution.”
He raised the teacup. "Welcome to the Imperial Academy to prosper the kingly way together."
Xun Chen and Mao Jie looked at each other and raised their cups in embarrassment.
Having a pretty sumptuous lunch at the Agricultural School, Xun Chen and Mao Jie bid farewell to Shi Tao and went out together.
Following the spacious streets and passing through the bustling crowds, the two walked slowly, each in silence, and were in a heavy mood.
Especially Mao Jie.
He had been to the Imperial Academy for a while and had visited the Jing Academy. He knew that the conditions of Jing Academy were far from reaching the Agricultural School. He heard from Shi Tao that the food in the Engineering School and the Business School may not be as good as that in the Agricultural School, but it is definitely not as good as the Jing Academy.
Difference.
As for the best martial arts lecture hall, let alone the best.
The students in the martial arts lecture hall should practice martial arts and train their troops. The food is better, which is arranged directly by the emperor. Some scholars who are poor and cannot support themselves choose the martial arts lecture hall for the sake of the food there. Even if they cannot enter the martial arts lecture hall,
They will also preferentially choose agricultural schools, engineering schools, rather than ritual schools.
Therefore, the court seems to be equal, but in fact it does not pay much attention to the Confucian School. In the future, students who apply for the Confucian School will inevitably be limited. Most of the people who come to the lectures may eventually become martial arts lectures, agricultural schools, and engineering schools.
, a student in business school.
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
It's really hard to explain for a moment.
But one thing is obvious: doing so will help alleviate the helplessness of Tai students in order to become an official, and they can spend more time studying.
But from another perspective, this may also be a hidden danger.
Most of the time I spent learning techniques like workers, farmers and commerce, and ignored morality. Will I focus on art and over Tao, and then focus on profit and over righteousness, or even be profit-oriented?
Mao Jie was very anxious.
"Youruo, Shi Guangyuan and others were invited by Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, but they didn't care about the lectures, whether they were in the martial arts lecture hall or the agricultural school. Could it be that they were influenced by Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong?"
"It's true." Xun Chen said: "So I want to meet them, especially Zhuge Liang. I don't object to some people studying agriculture and work, but too much is not enough. Too many scholars focus on these minor skills, just afraid that
It's putting the cart before the horse."
"It's better to be early than late." Mao Jie agreed.
"Well, I'll go to the martial arts lecture hall tomorrow, see Xu Shu, and visit Yu Fan. When I was in Hedong, I heard my younger brother Wen Ruo mention this person, saying that he was a rare genius. As soon as he met the emperor, he did it for
My confidant, who served as a martial arts lecture hall, must make some sense. Listen to what he said, maybe it will be inspiring."
Mao Jie agreed deeply.
He also wanted to go, but he felt it was not suitable. After all, he had known Xun Chengang for a long time.
The two returned to their residence. Before entering the door, they looked at each other, and then said in unison: "I want to sit in Cui Jigui and listen to his opinions."
Then, the two looked at each other and laughed.
Xun Chen said: "Since that's the case, let Cui Jigui come over and I'll be the host."
Mao Jie expressed his approval.
Xun Chen asked to go to Cui Yan, and he went back to the courtyard to prepare tea and snacks. Mrs. Tang was very thoughtful and had sent someone to deliver a lot of things. It seemed that the snacks on the eucalyptus were so clear that Xun Chen couldn't help but remembered that he had just been in the Agricultural School.
The military rations I had eaten were secretly smacked.
How else can I fight this? The strength is not the same level at all.
