(Peng’s second master htu, ∑==heart=→your monthly pass, reincarnation ryan on the other side, a reward of fifty-one stones.)

Li Yin's aggressive method was successful. After Cui Yingying returned to the palace, she went to find the Zheng sisters and began to prepare for the women's university. After Su Mo'er got the news, she was also very interested and joined the small group. Cui Yingying's self-confidence immediately soared. , and Li Yin just hid behind for fun.

While a few girls were tossing around, the exams of Yizhou Government Affairs College were over. Now the students are very anxious and anxiously waiting for the results to come out. They heard that the results this time will be announced to the public, and every Which position an individual is assigned is also public, and the Shengtang Business Daily will also publish it, which makes them even more nervous. This means that success will be glorious, and shame will be thrown home.

"Your Highness, your move is quite ruthless." In the office of the principal of the School of Political Affairs, Shangguanyi couldn't stop laughing.

Li Yin said: "This is also for publicity. Otherwise, who would know that the exams of the School of Government Affairs are fair and just, and who would know that these poor students really entered the government affairs system."

"Your Highness is right. If you don't do well in the exam, you deserve to be ashamed. In the academy, you will be free of food, clothing, housing and transportation, so you don't have to study hard. Don't make them ashamed or anyone else." He came in and said that the requirements for these students have always been very strict. In his opinion, Li Yin gave these poor students the opportunity to make a fortune, but they didn't cherish it. That is to say sorry to Li Yin and the opportunity he won.

Li Yan looked at the test paper in Wang Yinlong's hand, and said, "Have all the corrections been made?"

"All corrections have been made. A total of 1,321 students passed the exam, and 267 failed." When Wang Yinlong said this number, he couldn't help it, which shows that these students have worked hard during this period. It is hard work to learn the acquired knowledge, and the opportunity given to them is not wasted.

"So many!" Li Yin was also taken aback, the admission rate is too high, the score line he set is very high, and these students have only studied in the academy for seven or eight months.

Dou Xiande said: "Your Highness, I have to say that these students study very hard."

Li Yin nodded, because of the lack of entertainment, these students have almost nothing to do every day, and they are all reading and studying. It is not surprising to achieve such results.

"Very good!" Li Yin stood up excitedly, "Our Bashu can recruit more than a thousand talents at once. With these talents, various advanced management systems can be implemented. The next step is the interview stage. You can't relax. Some students may have passed the grades, but they can't be recruited if they study hard. New knowledge needs to be combined with practical learning. It should not be enforced blindly. In addition, the students' behavior and conduct must be paid attention to. Careful selection, talent is always needed, but it also needs to have considerable morals to control. Talent without virtue is a villain, virtue without virtue is a mediocrity, and having both ability and integrity is the standard for our selection. We don't do it."

The three of them agreed with Li Yin's recruitment method, Shangguanyi said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, when recruiting these students, they are required to provide a certificate of filial piety issued by the local government. Those who are not loyal and filial are not in our consideration. Inside."

"Well, the government affairs system is related to the rise and fall of the country, and it should not be a joke. Remember, no matter how other professions select talents. In the government affairs system, morality is the most important thing. A villain with talent and no morals is chaotic in the world. In addition to teaching knowledge, the education of the School of Political Affairs should pay equal attention to the word of virtue. Tian Xingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement. "Li Yin thought of the modern chaos and said with emotion.

"Yes, Your Highness!" The three said in unison.

Li Yin mentioned the general interview criteria, and at this moment said: "Where is Guan Sixing's test paper?"

Wang Yinlong immediately pulled out the first test paper, handed it to Li Yin, and said, "He got the first place in the comprehensive test."

Li Yin took the test paper and reviewed it. On Guan Sixing's test paper, the basic knowledge was correct, and there was no point deducted, only a few points were deducted for the case analysis of water conservancy projects.

"It's really rare." The exam papers of the School of Political Affairs are not the modern exam papers that can be completed in two hours, but two days. Therefore, during the exam, students eat, drink, and sleep in the small room. In the house, you can’t go anywhere. At first Li Yin wanted to use the modern test method, but was rejected by three people at the same time, because they thought that the test paper with too little knowledge was prone to opportunism, so they still adopted the old method. It contains a lot of knowledge, which is more fair.

It took Li Yin a long time to flip through a test paper, and he was ashamed. In fact, Li Yin couldn't answer a lot of knowledge on it, but who made him a leader? It is enough to be able to appoint talented people if necessary, but it is not necessary to be able to do everything.

While Li Yin was flipping through the test paper, the three of Shangguanyi were communicating with each other with their eyes, looking at Li Yin from time to time, as if they wanted someone to say something to Li Yin, after communicating for a while, Dou Xiande was defeated, and said cautiously : "Your Highness, I have something I would like to ask Your Highness."

"What is it?" Li Yin said without raising his head.

Li Yin raised his head, glanced at the three of them, and wondered if the three of them had different views, or objected with the idea that a woman's lack of talent is virtue, "That's right, the princess is preparing to build a women's university. You have different opinions." opinion?"

Dou Xiande opened up the topic, and Shangguanyi and Wang Yinlong let go. Shangguanyi said: "Since the school run by the princess is called Yizhou Women's University, should our Yizhou School of Political Affairs change its name? Many students feel that the school is This suffix is not as good as a university, and it is virtually inferior."

Wang Yinlong echoed: "Yes, since ancient times, men are superior to women, how can our School of Political Affairs be inferior!"

Li Yin smiled. They were originally concerned about the appellation. He smiled and said, "What's so difficult about it? Just change the Yizhou Government Affairs College to Yizhou Government Affairs University, just send someone to order a new plaque, and the Military Academy is the same How about changing it to Yizhou Military University?"

"It's so good!" "It's so good"... The three of them got what they wanted and said one after another.

Shaking his head, the ancients really regarded reputation as their life, Li Yin said again: "Speaking of women's university, if you have any ideas, you might as well talk about it."

Although the women's university was hosted by Cui Yingying, it must have been instructed by Li Yin. The three of them were clear-eyed and pondered for a while. There are also female officials in the palace, they are all well-educated in poetry and books, not weaker than men." Shangguanyi has stayed in Chang'an, so of course he has seen them.

Wang Yinlong and Dou Xiande remained silent, and they had no objection to the women's university. Li Yin felt relieved when he heard that, if all the men objected, the women's university might fail. However, the reason why Li Yin thought of establishing a women's university was also in consideration of the Tang Dynasty. The actual situation, because in history, the Tang Dynasty was the dynasty closest to the status of women and men. The real male superiority and inferiority occurred when Neo Confucianism was established in the Song Dynasty. At that time, the status of women was completely restrained.

"I'm relieved this way, and I'm worried that you will object. By the way, call Guan Sixing, and I will interview him in person." Uncovering this page, Li Yin turned to the topic.

"Yes, Your Highness." The three of them left the principal's office after hearing the words. After the exam, these students still stayed in the academy to study, so it can be said that they were always on call.

Not long after the three of them left, a man wearing a blue T-shirt with the words School of Government Affairs tattooed on his chest walked in.

Li Yin had only met Guan Sixing a few times in the past, and now he has a formal look at him. He is seven feet tall, with a straight face, thick eyebrows and starry eyes, and he is fairly handsome.

Seeing Li Yin, Guan Sixing was obviously a little nervous, speaking with trembling voice, said: "Guan Sixing, see Your Highness!"

"Excuse me, sit down!" Li Yin motioned for a chair.

Guan Sixing sat down as promised and waited for Li Yin to ask questions. After all, this was an interview.

"Tell me about yourself." Li Yin planned to test Guan Sixing's language expression ability first.

Guan Sixing put away his tense mood, thinking of the hardships he had endured for this day, he mustered up his courage and said: "So, Guan Sixing, from Mianzhou, the only son in the family, only an old father, he was six years old and taught..." As time went by, Guan Sixing became more and more fluent in his words, and even became impassioned later, "...if he can get an official position, Guan Sixing will serve His Highness wholeheartedly, and he will never change his mind."

Li Yin nodded in satisfaction. After passing the first test, Li Yin tested some other questions. Guan Sixing answered them fluently. Li Yin finally asked: "You answered the questions about agriculture and commerce in Yizhou on the test paper. , let me ask you how to speed up the commercial development of Yizhou and at the same time avoid the expansion of merchant power."

"I thought that we should first control some key industries in the hands of the government, such as salt, minerals, shipbuilding, steel, weapons and other industries that are hugely profitable and crucial to the development of Yizhou. In this way, the emergence of rich businessmen will be avoided. For other businessmen, while encouraging their behavior, special laws should be formulated for them to limit the behavior of businessmen who speculate."

Li Yin nodded and said, "Continue."

"Furthermore, there is the issue of tax control. Commerce is a highly profitable industry. If this trend continues, commercial tax will overtake agricultural tax and become the main source of government revenue, and avoiding tax evasion by businessmen will become an urgent issue at present. Therefore, I think the functions of the Shiyi Division should be strengthened, while in agriculture, farmers’ taxes and corvees should be further reduced, and the production enthusiasm of the people should be increased, so that the two can achieve a balance.”

"Yes, you understand very well." Li Yin praised, "And Shangguanyi and the others are also very satisfied with you. They all recommend you to take the position of governor of Yizhou. Do you have the confidence to take it on?"

"Inspector of Yizhou!" Guan Sixing felt his heart almost jumping out of his throat, and stayed there for a while.
