Chapter 100: class teacher

Chapter 100 Teacher's Triumph

Zhu Biao marched all the way to a hundred miles away from Nanjing City, but the sky was already dark, so Zhu Biao ordered to set up camp. It was not a defeated army, so there was no reason to triumph in the middle of the night.

Sent a few scouts to Nanjing to report, and the squad will return to the court tomorrow morning!

With such a big victory, the imperial court is bound to handle it well, and then it will spread the battle report to the world. Now in the entire Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that 98% of the people don't know the news of their crown prince's expedition, let alone Feng Lang Juxu or something.

After Zhu Biao had dinner with Zhu Di, he returned to his big tent, laying his head on his head and thinking about matters after returning to Beijing.

Developing the population is actually not too difficult. After all, the world is already stable, and the instinct of our nation is to cultivate and reproduce, but Zhu Biao is thinking about education.

The rapid development and take-off of China in later generations, literacy and compulsory education have played a big role. If you know that even when the new China was established, nearly 90% of the people in the country still could not read a single word.

It's just that compulsory education is absolutely impossible, and even if Daming is sold, so many educational resources can't be collected, and educational resources are still the smallest problem.

If the imperial power does not go to the countryside, the control over the countryside is very poor. If it is really necessary to implement it, it can only be implemented by the village chiefs and squires. This efficiency...

Poor literature and rich martial arts, on the surface it doesn’t cost a lot of money to learn literature, but pens, inks, paper and inkstones, and collections of classics and history are all expensive. In ancient times, these things were still very expensive. No matter how cheap a brush is, can it be cheaper than a pencil? If you let the people bear it by themselves, many people will not have enough meals and have to pay the royal rations, how can it be possible to pay this money?

There is also money to hire teachers, so the government can only pay for it. The problem is that the investment in this matter is too slow and the output is too slow. The government will definitely not pay this money, and it will not be able to.

Where do so many teachers come from? Compulsory education for all needs a large number of teachers. In ancient times, there were few scholars. The path of advancement is to become an official in the imperial examination, or to be an aide, a master, or a private school teacher. However, if possible, they will not be such compulsory teachers.

Furthermore, the fatness and thinness are uneven across the country. There are more people who study literature in developed places, but less people in poor places. Should I go to Guizhou instead of Suzhou and Hangzhou?

Compulsory education is guaranteed by legislation in modern poverty-stricken areas. Why? If you are poor, your child is still a labor force. If you want to study, you will be out of production, which is equivalent to one less labor force. Not many people are willing to support you.

Unless the government bears the children's meals, so that not only can they learn literature, but also save a mouthful of food for the family, why not do it? The problem is that the government can't do it.

Zhu Biao couldn't fall asleep, so he ordered to the outside: "Please come here sincerely."

After a while, Liu Bowen came in, and Zhu Biao got up to greet him. Liu Bowen sat on a stool beside him and said, "Your Highness has just achieved immortality, so why are you still worrying about it?"

Zhu Biao sat on the couch and said: "The meritorious deeds are a thing of the past, and it's not too late to cherish them when you are old. I want to ask you, sir. Is there a way to broaden the wisdom of the people?"

Liu Bowen stroked his beard and said: "This world has been trying to implement strategies to fool the people since ancient times. Why does Your Highness still want to broaden the wisdom of the people? This is not good for the stability of the country."

Zhu Biao actually understands that in his position, he should vigorously promote the policy of ignoring the people. The people at the most basic level are just tools and don’t need to have their own ideas.

From the perspective of feudal rulers, they hope that the people are ignorant and ignorant, stay at a certain stage, and just farm and cultivate the land with peace of mind.

In ancient times, imperial autocracy was accompanied by ideological control and ignorance of the people.

After wars and mergers, the divided countries have achieved great unity. At this time, ensuring that the family, the country and the world will continue forever, and that the imperial power is supreme, is the core interest of the regime. What is the prosperity of culture, advanced technology, happiness of the people, etc., everything Everything has to be compromised for this benefit.

Under the imperial power, people who are obedient and like tools are wanted. If the popular thoughts are allowed to flood, the folk ideas are active, and talents emerge in large numbers. Shake the authority of the government and affect the ruling foundation.

Fangmin's mouth is better than Fangchuan!

Zhu Biao frowned and pondered for a while and said: "Kaimin wisdom has disadvantages at the moment, but in the long run, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Now it is not like the previous generation. Not to mention the countries outside the ocean, even the small countries around Continuous development, if we continue to be self-confident, I am afraid it will leave disasters for future generations."

Liu Bowen looked at Zhu Biao and said: "Your Highness is digging the roots of your own family. Neither the courtiers nor His Majesty will support it."

But if he didn’t do this, Daming would still have to follow the old path. Now it can be said that the landlord class is the weakest.

After a few decades, the current honorable ministers will form a stable interest group. As the leader of this group, the emperor doesn't care if he kills a few people, but if he wants to overthrow this class, he will be betrayed by everyone.

Zhu Biao glanced at Liu Bowen and said, "What do you think about this, sir?"

Liu Bowen stroked his beard and said: "For the country, the benefits outweigh the harms, but for the country, the harms outweigh the benefits!"

Liu Bowen stood up and bowed to Zhu Biao to persuade him: "Your Highness, Rong Chen said from the bottom of his heart, no matter who thinks of himself and his family first, it is the turn of the country after all these considerations!"

Liu Bowen saw that Zhu Biao hadn't spoken, so he continued: "Even His Majesty agrees to this matter, but the specific policies still need to be implemented by local officials. Do you think they will do well?"

Zhu Biao nodded and said, "Thank you so much for your advice, sir."

Liu Bowen withdrew as soon as he bowed down. He was also from an aristocratic family, otherwise how could he have the opportunity to study and become a Jinshi?

Zhu Biao lay back on the couch and looked at the top of the tent, feeling inexplicably lonely in his heart, and no one would support him.

Zhu Biao was a little at a loss. It was obviously the right thing, but no one would support it. Liu Jin, who was waiting on the side, carefully covered him with a quilt.

Zhu Biao turned to look at Liu Jin, what if he relied on Jin Yiwei and Dongchang?

The idea just started was broken up by Zhu Biao himself. The establishment of a secret service agency capable of supervising the world is the sole authority of the emperor, not a prince.

Besides, relying on one department to deal with one class is not enough.

What about supporting the merchant class? Capitalism?

Zhu Biao shook his head, it would be better to be honest, Zhu Biao didn't want his descendants to be guillotined.

………

The next day Zhu Biao got up and put on the golden armor, and led the army to return to the dynasty. When he was ten miles away from Nanjing, Zhu Biao had already seen a large group of people standing in the distance, tens of thousands of people.

The civil and military officials headed by Li Shanchang all waited outside the city early. Zhu Yuanzhang issued an order yesterday to order all the civil and military officials to take the people out of the city ten miles to welcome the crown prince in triumph!

When Zhu Biao led the generals to approach, there was a burst of quaint music behind the officials, which was a unique triumphal joy.

The officials headed by Li Shanchang and the people behind him knelt down and congratulated Zhu Biao: "I welcome the general Tiance's team to win the victory, and return to the court after victory! I congratulate the prince for destroying Beiyuan, sealing the wolf and living in Xu, and setting up the throne." Qianqiu great achievements!"

After the hundred officials finished speaking, the crowd behind them began to shout in unison: "General Tiance is mighty, His Royal Highness is mighty!"

Zhu Biao smiled and waved them to get up, then got off his horse and bowed to Nanjing City, before exchanging greetings with Li Shanchang and others.

Li Shanchang smiled and said to Zhu Biao: "The Holy Majesty is very happy to hear the news that His Royal Highness is returning to court. Now the Holy Majesty is waiting for you on the city wall of Nanjing."

Zhu Biao felt a lot warmer when he heard it, and inexplicably remembered that a few years ago when Zhu Biao led all the officials to welcome Zhu Yuanzhang outside Nanjing, Zhu Biao wanted to know how his father felt now.

I cut a lot of words, and I feel a little distressed, but those are mixed with too much of my personal stuff, so they are not suitable for writing in the book.
