The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 717 Industry and Education
Even among the more than 370 people, many are officials at the local state level, and these people are counted among them.

But facing the bait cast by Zhu Hongyu, at least half of the county officials took the bait.

It can be seen how touching the quality of these local officials is!
It can also be seen how hopeless these people are when they become greedy!

"Your Majesty, when will we close the net here?"

Wang Ruxian asked.

Zhu Hongyu slowly shook his head and said.

"Not urgent!"

"Let Jinyiwei and the Ministry of Justice do a good job of connecting with each other first, and then promote a group of officials from the south to the north to serve as deputy to the local chief."

"Wait until these officials are familiar with local government affairs and have a certain degree of control over the local area, and then arrest people!"

"Corrupt officials must be arrested, but local government affairs cannot be shut down!"

Wang Ruxian bowed to his orders.

In fact, Zhu Hongyu is not only cleaning up the officialdom in the north, but also in the south.

It's just that the method he used in the south is much milder, the kind that boils frogs in warm water.

Using anti-corruption as an excuse, we will do a few today and a few tomorrow. After a long time, the local officials can also be replaced.

Of course, the reason for this is not that Zhu Hongyu has a preference for the south.

It was because, at that time, Daming hadn't been able to drive Man Qing out of the customs, so when Zhu Hongyu was doing things, he was a little more scrupulous, and his actions seemed a little conservative.

Unlike now, he made it clear that the chariots and horses were fishing!

After the fish takes the bait, it is definitely necessary to follow the example of Comrade Zhu and come up with a big case to clean up the local officialdom.

It's impossible to be as timid as when I was in Jiangnan!

To put it bluntly, the continuous military victories of the Ming army gave Zhu Hongyu the confidence to take drastic steps to clean up the officialdom.

Zhu Hongyu pondered for a while, then opened his mouth to give instructions.

"Pass down the order, after the spring of next year, the imperial court will open Enke again!"

Zhu Hongyu wants to join Enke for two main purposes.

One is to ensure that there are enough officials to fill local vacancies after he cleans up the local bureaucracy.

The second is to come out with official hats to appease the big gentry in the local area.

As long as these big gentry don't make trouble for Zhu Hongyu, there will be no chaos in Daming.

To put it bluntly, the current Zhu Hongyu actually dare not offend the landlord and gentry class to death!
However, when Daming completes the bourgeois revolution and cultivates a new ruling class, then it may not be so!

……

At the end of October in the first year of Guangfu of the Ming Dynasty, Yujia arrived in Yangzhou, an important town in the north of the Yangtze River!
And start preparing for crossing the river immediately!
The Jiangnan side also received the news of the imperial driving team in advance, and the Nanjing cabinet team even prepared for the driving in advance.

Boom!dong dong!

Amidst the muffled gun salute, Li Lingxiu appeared on the pier outside Nanjing City with her queen's Yiluan.

She held the Crown Prince of Daming in her arms, and surrounded by a group of guards, she stood on the pier, looking towards the direction of Jiangbei, quietly waiting for the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty to return from the battle.

The security work of the pier was taken over by the Imperial Guards. A soldier of the Imperial Guards was wearing armor and carrying a musket on his shoulder, standing around the pier.

Be vigilant all around, hold your chest up, your morale is full!

Flags were fluttering on the pier, and countless Nanjing people spontaneously came to the pier, preparing to watch the spectacular scene of the emperor returning to Beijing.

The victory of the Northern Expedition of the Ming Dynasty made the atmosphere of the people in the south of the Yangtze River unprecedentedly high.

The son of the Joseon King, Li Xuan, also appeared on the pier, bringing his servants and teachers and friends he met in the Imperial College, ready to watch the excitement.

Looking at the vast Yangtze River in front of him, and feeling the turbulent crowds all around, Li Xuan was full of emotion, this is the great tomorrow!
Not only is there the danger of mountains and rivers, but also the solidity of people's hearts!

I don't know when North Korea will be as powerful as Daming is now...

Li Xuan is dreaming a dream that is completely unrealistic!
But how could he not know that North Korea is now under the rule of the world's elite, although the social structure is stable, but it is dead silent from top to bottom.

Everyone is muddling along, without any intention of making progress!
And what about Daming today?
After the restoration of the country, not only were the officials clear and bright, the monarchs were wise and ministers were wise, and political innovations were made, but they were also based on industry and commerce, and actively explored Nanyang. From top to bottom, there was an atmosphere of enterprising and innovative.

North Korea is originally a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and in terms of strength, it is far inferior to the father of the Celestial Dynasty!

Now, with the continuous reforms of Ming Dynasty, the gap in strength between North Korea and Ming Dynasty will only become bigger!

Today's Daming is indeed a loving father to North Korea.

But whether the loving father will become a strict father, whether he will want to kill and annex the good son of North Korea, is also a matter of certainty.

Today's North Korea is indeed the head of the Ming Dynasty's vassals, and it is one of the [-] non-conquering countries appointed by Emperor Taizu.

However, for Daming, the sea ban was still the ancestral system!

So what now?
Didn't Ming's merchant ships and warships still travel all over Nanyang?

Li Yan really didn't think that the so-called ancestral system would have any restraint on this great emperor today!
At that time, if Daming really wants to attack North Korea, North Korea may not even have the ability to resist at all!
Even, there will be countless people in North Korea spontaneously standing on Daming's side.

This is where the great influence on North Korea lies for more than 200 years.

The degree of Sinicization of North Korea is really very high!

If Ming Dynasty wanted to annex North Korea, it is estimated that there would not be many resisters in North Korea.

Seeing Daming's strength, Li Xuan said.

"Now that the Ming Dynasty is so powerful, it is frustrating. A certain family must study hard in the Imperial College. After finishing their studies, they can return to North Korea to help North Korea complete its reforms."

"Can you help me sir?"

Li Xuan asked a middle-aged man in Confucian shirt beside him.

This middle-aged Confucian shirt is named Zhao Kang, and he is Li Yun's teacher in Guozijian.

The reason why Li Xuan had the idea of ​​reforming North Korea was also under the influence of Zhao Kang.

Zhao Kang nodded slightly, nodded and said.

"My son's request, of course, I will not refuse!"

Hearing this, Li Yan said very moved.

"If Mr. is willing to return to North Korea with the students to help the students complete the reform, the students are willing to treat him as a national teacher!"

Zhao Kang smiled and nodded.

"My son, don't talk about this matter again, you are not the kind of person who is greedy for vanity!"

"If you wish to help the prince reform again, you just care about the world, and you don't want to see the Korean people continue to suffer under the oppression of the world's powerful clan!"

Hearing this, Li Xuan also nodded vigorously and said.

"The powerful people in the world are indeed my number one evil in North Korea!"

"If North Korea wants to rise, it must get rid of the powerful people in the world!"

Zhao Kang nodded in satisfaction, as if agreeing with Li Xuan's statement.

But just turning his head, a sneer appeared on his face.

How can reform be so easy!
Daming is now not so much completing the reforms as it is reopening the country.

Zhu Hongyu led the army to fight the world again and reshape the order of the world.

The alliance formed by the vested interests has been beaten to pieces!

In addition, there is such a founding emperor who controls the place, and there is an invincible army to suppress the world.

Therefore, when Daming reforms, there will be no such great resistance!
And if North Korea wants to reform, how to solve the vested interests is the first problem they will face.

You must know that the power held by the secular families in North Korea is much stronger than that held by the landlord and gentry class in Ming Dynasty.

The influence of the worldly clans on the Korean political situation is much greater than that of the landlords and gentry of the Ming Dynasty.

Tsk tsk, when the time comes, when North Korea reforms, it will be the day of civil strife in North Korea!
To put it bluntly, this wave of Daming is actually exporting revolution!

Well, Zhao Kang is the introduction, and Li Xuan, the son of the Joseon Dynasty, is the focus of Daming's efforts to shake up the political situation in North Korea.

In order to annex North Korea without any future troubles, Daming also took great pains.

After all, if there were no civil strife in North Korea, or threats from external forces, how could Daming, as North Korea's own father, take over Daer's government affairs for no reason?

The closer you are to your father, the less you can plan for your son's family business, right?

At least not on the surface!
It had to be that the royal family of Joseon cried and clamored to be included, to integrate into Daming, and then made three concessions, and Daming had no choice but to accept it.

This is in line with Daming's values!

Comparing Daming and Xixi's white skins, they still have to lose face after all.

So, only by making these arrangements before the real action can Da Ming's political skills be seen.

……

While Zhao Kang and Li Xuan were talking, Yu Jia finally appeared in front of everyone.

On the broad Yangtze River, a huge fleet appeared!

The tall hull and the flying dragon flag all show the strength and dignity of the fleet.

Boom!dong dong!

The salute became more and more intensive!

The gun windows on the side of the fleet were also opened, and a lot of gunpowder smoke was emitted from each of the naval guns.

It was also an empty salute!

Woo!Woohoo!

A muffled horn sounded immediately after.

The drum band on the pier began to play.

"The emperor's style of the four seas is quilt, and the thousand years of virtue and water are clear!"

"Let's not wear military uniforms, today's success!"

"Looking back, Qin Sai is as low as a horse, and gradually seeing the Yellow River flowing straight north."

"Tianwei rolls straight to the Yumen Fortress, and thousands of barbarians perform Han songs!"

"The emperor's style of the four seas is quilt, and the thousand years of virtue and water are clear!"

"Let's not wear military uniforms, today's success."

"The lord sage opened the Changli calendar, and the ministers are loyal to Dayou!"

"After looking at Yange, it will be Taiping Autumn!"

"..."

The music played by the drum band is the famous "Qin Wang Breaking the Battle", which was written by Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty.

Such a song is not so much a military song as it is an imperial music!

In the Tang Dynasty, every time "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Battle" was played, it was the time when the King of Qin Li Shimin led the army to make a triumphant return.

The same is true of the Ming Dynasty today. The emperor's imperial conquest took over the old capital of the Ming Dynasty. Then, Nanjing chose to use "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array" to welcome him.

Amidst the melodious music, ships berthed on the south bank of the Yangtze River.

The officers and soldiers of the imperial guards got off the boat first, and started guarding according to the regulations.

Then Zhu Hongyu walked off the boat with his guard of honor.

At this time, Zhu Hongyu was wearing a straight military uniform, a large cloak behind him, and a saber at his waist.

He had just landed when he saw his queen Li Lingxiu.

Zhu Hongyu's eyes lit up, and he strode over.

After Zhu Hongyu landed, the entire pier, no matter whether it was the soldiers on duty or the common people watching the excitement, all knelt down together.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"..."

The sound of Shan Hu pilgrimage was continuous and resounded throughout Nanjing.

Zhu Hongyu stretched out his hand to help Li Lingxiu up, and then spoke.

"Zhu Qing is flat!"

"Haha, follow me into Beijing!"

After speaking, Zhu Hongyu took the lead to go to Nanjing City.

Wherever Yujia passed by, countless people spontaneously knelt down and worshiped Shanhu.

Zhu Hongyu galloped past and led the people straight into the imperial city.

On that day, a grand celebration banquet was held in the Imperial City. On this day, the Forbidden City in Nanjing was brightly lit.

There is endless singing and laughter!
That night, Zhu Hongyu fell asleep with Li Lingxiu in his arms.

After some cloud and rain, the two hugged each other tightly and fell asleep.

Tonight, there is no curfew in Nanjing!
The lights on the Qinhuai River flow like a stream, and the people around the Confucius Temple are like a sea, which is a scene of prosperity and prosperity.

The reason why the curfew is only temporarily lifted instead of canceled is because it is not yet time!
Zhu Hongyu is going to completely rule the world in Ming Dynasty, and organize the social order of the world. After completing a round of crackdown on the social vitality organizations of green-skinned gangsters, the curfew will be lifted permanently.

Learn from the Southern Song Dynasty and stimulate economic development by relaxing the curfew!

……

On the second day, Zhu Hongyu got up early.

He is not the kind of foolish king who is addicted to wine and sex, he knows that he still has to deal with some government affairs that have been accumulated since his Northern Expedition.

In the next period of time, Zhu Hongyu might be very busy.

Although there is a queen overseeing the country and the cabinet handles government affairs, there are still a lot of government affairs that they cannot decide on.

Now that Zhu Hongyu is returning to Nanjing, these government affairs must be handled by him personally.

Constantly reviewing government affairs, he was busy for a whole morning. At noon, Zhu Hongyu ordered Liu Xuanchu to be called for an audience.

He was going to take advantage of the lunch time to see why Wu Sangui sent Liu Xuanchu over.

Zhu Hongyu ate his lunch in the imperial study, and the serving ladies brought the food to Zhu Hongyu's table, and then prepared a plate.

Just as Zhu Hongyu was about to move his chopsticks, someone outside informed him.

"Report to Your Majesty, Liu Xuanchu, the envoy of the Western Qing Dynasty, is seeking to see you!"

A young eunuch reported.

Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly.

"Announce him in!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Hongyu put down his chopsticks for now.

Not long after, Liu Xuanchu, led by a young eunuch, appeared in front of Zhu Hongyu with strides.

Then he bowed straight down.

"Foreign minister Liu Xuanchu kowtowed to the Son of Heaven!"

Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly and said.

"Exemption, a seat, and tea!"

Under Zhu Hongyu's order, several eunuchs and maids came forward, arranged the chairs and tea in place, and then retreated.

Zhu Hongyu picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea, then asked.

"I don't know what is the so-called reason why Wang Pingxi sent Mr. Wang to Nanjing?"

As the emperor, Zhu Hongyu's every word will not be nonsense.

He called Wu Sangui King Pingxi, not Emperor Qing, which actually showed his attitude.

Peace talks are possible!

But the premise is that Wu Sangui is going to the Emperor.

Then, on this premise, other conditions can be discussed!
When Liu Xuanchu heard the words, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he secretly said that there was a door.

"Your Majesty, the foreign ministers are here to negotiate peace with Ming Dynasty on the orders of my Emperor Qing!"

Zhu Hongyu narrowed his eyes when he heard this.

"Oh~ is it? Then why do I feel that Mr. has no sincerity in the peace talks?"

"Under the whole world, is it the land of the king, and the shore of the land, is it the subject of the king!"

"There is and can only be one emperor in this world, one emperor!"

"Now King Pingxi still bears the name of an emperor, and even recognizes a thief as his father. He has even abandoned his own surname and adopted the old slave's surname. How can Daming negotiate peace with you?"

When Liu Xuanchu heard the words, there was a look of astonishment on his face, but then he changed his mind and spoke.

"What Your Majesty said is true, King Pingxi now regrets that he should not have accepted the national name given by Jiannu."

"Please Your Majesty be magnanimous and give King Pingxi a chance!"

"Nowadays the world is in chaos and the people are suffering. I believe His Majesty doesn't want to see the people of the world continue to suffer from the chaos of war, right?"

Hearing this, Zhu Hongyu spoke without showing any expression on his face.

"Although I also want peace, and I don't want the people of the world to suffer from wars, but if I can't unify the world and completely restore the homeland of Ming Dynasty, I will have no choice but to explain to the people of the world and the ancestors of Ming Dynasty. "

Zhu Hongyu made it clear to Liu Xuanchu that it was impossible for Wu Sangui to separate himself from the Central Plains.

He Zhu Hongyu is not Zhao Gou, so it is impossible to accept that there are still separatist forces in the Central Plains China, and there are still people like him who claim to be emperors in the world!
Liu Xuanchu opened his mouth to express his opinion to Zhu Hongyu.

"Report to Your Majesty, King Pingxi has decided that after the spring of the next year, our Guan Ning Army will send troops to march west."

"At that time, Daming will naturally be able to regain the Guanzhong homeland without using weapons!"

"But as compensation, King Pingxi hopes to purchase a batch of ordnance from Daming for our Guanning Army's westward expedition."

Now that the words have come to this point, Wu Sangui's background is almost explained.

For the sake of peace talks, Wu Sangui can proclaim himself a minister to Ming Dynasty, relinquish the name of the Qing Dynasty, abandon the surname of Ai Xinjueluo, give up the territory in Guanzhong and launch the Western Expedition.

And what they want is that when the Guanning Army marches westward, Daming will not send troops to stab their asses.

Of course, it would be even better if Daming could sell a batch of ordnance to the Guan Ning Army!
Hearing this, Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly and said.

"It's fine to buy ordnance, but Daming will not trade with you until the Guanning Army has completely withdrawn from Guanzhong."

"By the way, didn't your Guan Ning army seize a large number of horses, cattle and sheep in Hetao?"

"If you want weapons, you can exchange them with horses, cattle and sheep!"

Upon hearing the words, Liu Xuanchu nodded and said after pondering for a while.

"Foreign ministers will ask King Pingxi for instructions, so it's possible."

For today's Guan Ning army, it may be reluctant to exchange war horses for ordnance.

After all, if they want to march west, the most important supplies are horses.

But exchanging cattle and sheep for some ordnance is completely acceptable to the Guan Ning army.

In this era, cattle, sheep and animals are far less valuable than war horses!

For Daming, if the Guan Ning army exchanged war horses for armaments, that would be great.

Because, the current Daming can be said to lack everything, except war horses.

But if the Guan Ning army exchanged cattle and sheep for armaments, it would actually be acceptable.

Especially now that the Great Tomorrow has just been restored, it is the time when a large number of cattle are needed to restore agriculture.

Farm cattle are especially precious!

And mutton and wool are also useful things!

Mutton can be eaten, which can supplement the meat part of the daily diet of the people of Ming Dynasty.

It is not enough for a person to only eat food. Only by eating meat can he grow his body and strength.

And the wool can be used for woolen spinning!

Even though the wool of Chinese sheep is thicker and harder than that of British long-wool sheep, it cannot be used for fine wool spinning, such as spinning wool or weaving woolen clothes.

It can be used to weave blankets, and felt is still possible.

It will never be useless!

The matter of the arms trade has been finalized for the time being, but only a framework has been finalized.

Detailed bargaining, follow-up will be followed up.

Zhu Hongyu, as the emperor of Ming Dynasty, of course would not do such a thing of bargaining with others, it is too out of place.

Liu Xuanchu continued.

"If the peace talks can be finalized, in order to ensure the long-term peace between the two sides, King Pingxi is willing to marry His Majesty and marry a daughter to His Majesty!"

Zhu Hongyu didn't care much when he heard the words, he just nodded and said.

"can!"

Now, Zhu Hongyu is used to things like marriage.

As a political figure, it is normal for him to marry someone!

If we say that at the beginning, Zhu Hongyu was a little bit happy when he married someone.

But now it will not!

There are so many marriages, he doesn't care much now!
He didn't even care whether Wu Sangui sent one of his own daughters here or adopted one.

If someone sends it over, he just accepts it!

Well, unless someone is really beautiful, he will pay special attention.

Men are all lower body animals.

Zhu Hongyu is no exception!
As long as my sister looks good, the treatment will definitely not be bad!
……

The peace talks are almost finalized, and there are still some details.

The cabinet of the Ming Dynasty will connect with Liu Xuanchu!

After Liu Xuanchu resigned, Zhu Hongyu started to eat lunch.

After lunch, Zhu Hongyu began to take a walk in the imperial garden.

After a while of digestion, Zhu Hongyu continued to deal with government affairs.

Looking at the mountain of memorials, Zhu Hongyu really felt a little headache.

Looking at the contents of the memorial in front of him, Zhu Hongyu narrowed his eyes, pondered for a while, and then wrote a correct word.

The main content of the memorial is Daming's next steel development plan.

Daming is going to start building ten large iron and steel factories across the country.

The memorial is to ask Zhu Hongyu for the location of the iron and steel plant. These ten places are Shougang, Taiyuan Iron and Steel, Maanshan Iron and Steel Plant, Hankou Iron and Steel Plant, Shilu Iron Mine, Panzhihua in Sichuan... and other places.

The location of the steel plant may not be so easy to determine for people in this era.

But for Zhu Hongyu, it couldn't be easier.

He just copied it!

Wherever the large iron and steel enterprises in later generations were located, he determined the location of the iron and steel plant.

These places are either rich in coal and iron resources, or have convenient transportation, and have great location advantages...

Each has its own advantages, but since these places in the future can be developed because of steel, there is definitely nothing wrong with Zhu Hongyu choosing these places.

And the construction of these ten large iron and steel factories, to put it bluntly, is the first step of Daming's industrialization!
Is industrialization difficult?

Of course it is difficult!

Because industrial development is actually a system!
Instead of building a few factories, it is considered to have completed industrialization.

Otherwise, my Westernization Movement in the Qing Dynasty would not have become a joke.

If you really want to complete industrialization, you still have to start with education.

But if Daming can concentrate on big things and build a few large factories, it will not be difficult, and it will not even be difficult to create an industrial chain.

However, it is very difficult to complete a systematic industrialization!

Running a factory while engaging in education is the most correct way to start the industrial revolution!

These ten large iron and steel factories can only be regarded as the beginning of the industrial revolution in Ming Dynasty.

And the reason why I chose to start with steel!
It is because steel is related to national defense!
Of course, this is also related to the national policy of Zhu Hongyu's court focusing on the development of heavy industry, while private capital focuses on the development of light industry.

From ancient times to the present, the steel output of a country has always been the most intuitive evaluation data of the country's war potential.

To put it bluntly, Zhu Hongyu engaged in steel to prepare for war.

And war is actually preparing for education!

Sounds a little silly, but it's true!
Although now the Ming Dynasty has a population of 7000 to 20 million, if the elderly and adults are excluded, the population under the age of 1000 who can be educated and trained, including both men and women, is at least more than 2000 million, or even [-] million. .

Even if it is reduced, that is 1000 million people.

If Zhu Hongyu wanted to engage in compulsory education, it would count as 1000 million people.

The annual expenses, including board and lodging, textbooks, teaching venues, teachers, etc., cost at least ten million silver dollars.

An average of ten silver dollars per person per year is obviously not enough for education.

Well, it has to be a base!
As for how much it will cost, to be honest, no one can tell for sure.

Obviously, this thing is unrealistic!
Even if Zhu Hongyu is engaged in a castrated version of compulsory education, if he does not engage in nine-year education, he will only be responsible for enlightenment in two or three years.

After the enlightenment is completed, whether you can continue to go to school depends on the test results.

Pass the difficult exam to select a group of talents, and then spend resources to train them.

Even the students' board and lodging, books and other expenses are borne by the students themselves.

The education expenditure required by the imperial court will also be an astronomical figure.

Unless after the Ming Dynasty unified the world, it began to disarm, cut down administrative expenses, curb martial arts, and devote itself to education.

Otherwise, Daming's finances would still collapse.

However, disarmament cannot be disarmed!

It is impossible to disarm in this lifetime!

So, again, what if the court has no money?
This seemingly difficult problem is actually very easy to solve. What the white skins in the West have done in history has pointed out the way forward for Ming Dynasty.

Take off your face, put it in your pocket, and grab it!

Looting the whole world and fattening themselves, isn't that what Western white skins do?
Oh, no, this is not robbing, this is spreading civilization!
Well, that's right, that's it!
So, building a steel factory and expanding the army are really laying the foundation for education!

Thinking of this, Zhu Hongyu wrote.

"Trial plan for compulsory education:..."

Compulsory education has too much to do with it, and it is definitely not feasible to spread it out directly.

Therefore, Zhu Hongyu is going to find a few cities to carry out a pilot project of compulsory education.

One is to let the Ming court familiarize itself with the specific process of compulsory education!

The second is to take advantage of the opportunity of conducting pilot projects, so that the Ming court can know the cost of compulsory education.

First of all, the first city to pilot compulsory education must be Nanjing!

After Nanjing's compulsory education is rolled out, the next step will be Shanghai, Xiamen, Guangzhou, Qiongzhou Luzon and other economic development zones.

After these economic development zones are completed, they will spread to the provincial capitals of various provinces, as well as relatively affluent cities such as Yangzhou, Hangzhou, Luoyang, and Huai'an.

To be honest, if it is all at once, the Ming court will spend [-] million silver dollars for compulsory education.

Daming's finances are about to collapse!

I can't hug it!
Therefore, Zhu Hongyu's plan is to advance step by step, slowly boil the frog in warm water.

To put it bluntly, compulsory education or something belongs to a series of policies within one's lifetime.

If Zhu Hongyu can truly implement this policy before he dies, he will be satisfied.

Even if he didn't do anything else in his life, the compulsory education alone is enough to keep his name in history, and his historical status surpassed that of Emperor Qin, Han and Wu!

Compulsory education is the real merit!
After writing the pilot plan for the promotion of compulsory education, Zhu Hongyu summoned Zheng Chenggong to prepare for Zheng Chenggong to be in charge of the pilot project of compulsory education.

Zheng Chenggong has been raised at home this year. Although his life is very comfortable, he is too leisurely.

His bones are itching when he is idle!
As soon as Zhu Hongyu was summoned here, Zheng Chenggong came.

After Zheng Chenggong saluted Zhu Hongyu, Zhu Hongyu spoke.

"Give a seat to King Yanping!"

After Zheng Chenggong thanked En and sat down, Zhu Hongyu spoke.

"Let's take a look at this. This is the pilot plan for compulsory education that I made. Lao Taishan has a look to see if it works!"

Zheng Chenggong sat on the chair, and Zhu Hongyu ordered the eunuch beside him to hand him the plan.

Zheng Chenggong opened the proposal and began to read it. After just one glance, his brows were deeply frowned.

Although in writing, this plan is only said to be implemented in Nanjing, but it also shows that what is implemented in Nanjing is only a pilot project.

In the future, it will definitely be rolled out on a large scale!
compulsory education……

I have never heard of it since ancient times, which imperial court has such a policy!

Although he didn't understand, Zheng Chenggong said he was greatly shocked.

Zhu Hongyu is going to open up the wisdom of the people!
Zheng Chenggong opened his mouth and spoke.

"Your Majesty, if you open up the wisdom of the people, will it be detrimental to the rule of the court?"

Zheng Chenggong is on the side of the ruler, and he feels it is necessary to remind Zhu Hongyu of the dangers of opening up the wisdom of the people.

Well, a hazard to rulers!

……

ps: The author will take the final exam this Saturday, which is the day after tomorrow.

Today there are only [-] words, and tomorrow it may be a little less, like five or six thousand words.

After the test is over, the normal update will resume!

How stressful the review before the college exam is, I understand it all!
