As a cowherd boy, he had two major regrets in his childhood: one was not having enough to eat, and the other was that he could not afford to study.

Because of this, after he became emperor, in addition to focusing on agriculture, he also paid special attention to education.

The overall framework of the Ming Dynasty's education system was built by Zhu Yuanzhang.

In the second year of Hongwu, not long after he unified the world, Zhu Yuanzhang issued two consecutive imperial edicts ordering officials from various places to establish schools nationwide.

In the first month of the eighth year of Hongwu, he ordered all parts of the country to establish"social studies" and built schools from the central government to the village level.

According to statistics from later generations, during the reign of the Ming Dynasty, there were a total of 1,962 academies in the world, far exceeding the previous dynasties before the Ming Dynasty.

Such achievements naturally stem from the Ming Dynasty education system established by Zhu Yuanzhang. and.

During Zhu Yuanzhang's administration, he also frequently allocated funds to local governments and gave ordinary people the opportunity to receive education.

These measures all show that Zhu Yuanzhang attaches great importance to education. but.

These measures of his are incompatible with the Dragon KingdomCompared with the nine-year compulsory education, it is undoubtedly insignificant and incomparable.

"Big deal! What a courage!"

Zhu Yuanzhang praised loudly.

How big an expense is this for nine years of free education for all school-age students across the country?

Just the cost of building hundreds of thousands of schools is an astronomical figure.

Later generations of the Dragon Kingdom But he was willing to pay this amount, which shows how much the later generations of the Dragon Kingdom attached great importance to education.

"No wonder the literacy rate in the Dragon Kingdom was so high in later generations. It turned out that nine years of free education was implemented!"

"Given such an opportunity, ordinary people are naturally willing to send their children to school."

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed again

"more than that"

"The nine-year compulsory education in Longguo is compulsory."

"Not going to school is illegal!"

"People must send their children to school. Zhu

Biao on the side interrupted.

"right! right!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in agreement.

On the one hand, he will give you free education, and on the other hand, he will tell you that it is illegal not to go to school.

With both approaches, it is no wonder that the literacy rate of the Dragon Kingdom in later generations is not high.

"Hey, it would be great if our Ming Dynasty also had the conditions to implement these nine years of compulsory education."

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed again with 14 sentences

"We in the Ming Dynasty don’t have so much money and food."

"Building more schools, hiring teachers, etc. will require a lot of money, which our Ming Dynasty cannot afford."

"Moreover, our Ming Dynasty does not have as many people as the Dragon Kingdom in later generations, and we do not have the conditions to let so many people not work on production."

Zhu Biao reminded him.

Don't his father impulsively propose a nine-year compulsory education in the Ming Dynasty. That would be a lot of fun. Even if they empty out the treasury of the Ming Dynasty, this would not be possible.

"we know"

"We are not stupid, we still know how much wealth we have."

Zhu Yuanzhang replied.

He did have this idea just now.

But he soon realized it.

His Ming Dynasty did not have this strength.

However, he was still a little unwilling.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang had a new idea:

"Boss, instead of implementing nine-year free compulsory education like the one in the Dragon Kingdom in later generations, is it possible if we just let the children of Ming Dynasty learn literacy for free? Zhu

Biao shook his head and said:

"Dad, don't think about it"

"With our Ming Dynasty’s national strength, we really can’t do it"

"Think about it, our Ming Dynasty has 140 prefectures, 193 states, 1,138 counties, 493 hospitals, and 359 schools. In so many places, just building schools is an astronomical sum!"

"If you have a school, you still need to hire a teacher, right? The salary of so many people is another big expense"

"Also, you need a book to study, right? Since it’s free like Dragon Kingdom, you can’t charge money, right? This is another big expense……"

"besides……"

Before Zhu Biao finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang impatiently:

"Okay, okay!"

"We get it."

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little disappointed that free education could not be achieved.

On the other side, in the dimension of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty,

Li Shimin had also calmed down.

After listening to the analysis of Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, he knew that the Tang Dynasty would be like the Dragon Kingdom in later generations. It is simply impossible to implement nine-year compulsory education.

Datang does not have the capital

"The Dragon Kingdom of later generations is so powerful!"

After figuring out the difficulty of this matter, Li Shimin admired the Dragon Kingdom even more.

Throughout the dynasties, there were many ancients who had the same idea as Li Shimin.

After watching this video of the Dragon Kingdom's 2023 education data statistics, all dynasties The ancient people of all ages were deeply frightened by the power of the Dragon Kingdom in later generations.

Then, the new video that appeared on the high-altitude giant screen gave them a stronger impression of the power and wealth of the Dragon Kingdom in later generations.

In the high-altitude giant screen.A burst of joyful BGM filled with harvest joy sounded.

A large golden rice field appeared.

【Longguo’s annual grain output hit a record high again!】

【The country's total grain output is 695.41 million tons (1,390.8 billion jins), an increase of 8.88 million tons (17.8 billion jins) from 2022, an increase of 1.3%, and has remained at the 1.3 trillion jins level for nine consecutive years.】

【Among them, grain output is 641.43 million tons (1,282.9 billion catties).……】

【Longguo's main grain output has ranked first in the world for more than 30 years. ]

In the narration and subtitles, the power of the giant screen made ancient people of all dynasties quickly understand the meaning of these data.

Then. boom!!!!

The ancient people of all dynasties fell into sluggishness instantly, their minds were blank, and they had no ideas.

The figure of 1,390.8 billion catties made them a little breathless.

This annual grain production is really scary!

After a brief period of sluggishness, the common people of all dynasties became furious:

"hiss!!! 1,390.8 billion kilograms, how long does it take to finish it?"

"so amazing!"

"Oh my god, there is so much food, it would be piled up into several mountains!"

"……"

Food is the most important thing for the people.

Whether in ancient times or modern times, food is a very important issue that attracts great attention.

Such a huge grain output has undoubtedly had a huge impact on the common people of all dynasties.

They kept marveling and expressing their shock.

The same is true for emperors of all dynasties.

Da Qin plane.

Qin Shihuang asked Meng Yi in a daze:

"Meng Yi, the food output of the Dragon Kingdom in this future generation will only be enough to feed our Great Qin for several decades, right?"

"Your Majesty, you are being conservative. According to my calculations, this output is enough to feed everyone in the Qin Dynasty for hundreds of years! Meng

Yi replied.

The Qin Dynasty only has 20 million people. With so much food, if you save it and eat it for hundreds of years, it won't be a problem.

Hearing this answer, Qin Shihuang was even more shocked. This food output is simply terrifying!

……

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin marveled:

"sharp! The Dragon Kingdom in later generations is really powerful!"

"With so much grain being produced in one year, it would probably take several years for us in the Tang Dynasty to produce it."

"Your Majesty, I am afraid that you have missed one word of cross. With the annual grain output of our Tang Dynasty, I am afraid it will take several decades to produce it."

Changsun Wuji carefully corrected Li Shimin's words.

"Does it take decades to be worth one year?"

Li Shimin was even more shocked.

……

The plane of Ming Taizu.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed:

"No wonder the Dragon Kingdom in later generations could have a population of 14. It turns out that they produce so much food every year!"

"yes! There are 1.3 trillion kilograms of grain produced every year, and it is incredible that this figure has been exceeded for nine consecutive years!"

Zhu Biao was also amazed.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed again:

"If only my Ming Dynasty could produce so much food every year!"

"Then the people of Ming Dynasty will never go hungry and can eat freely!"

"Moreover, our country, the Ming Dynasty, will surely last for generations to come!"

As a person who grew up as a poor boy who did not have enough to eat, Zhu Yuanzhang knew very well that the country is based on food. As long as the people have enough to eat, the country will not be in chaos.

"Yes, according to the annual grain output of the Dragon Kingdom, even if there are 14 of them, each person will have close to 1,000 kilograms."

"If it were placed in the Ming Dynasty, this number would have to be increased dozens of times, with each person able to have tens of thousands of kilograms of grain."

"With so much food, you can eat whatever you want. Zhu

Biao also said with emotion.

The total annual grain output of the Dragon Kingdom in later generations is really too much!

……(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

The plane of the Ming Dynasty's ancestor.

Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Zhanji and his grandson were all stunned again.

They can't even dream that a country's annual grain output can be measured in trillions of kilograms.

"Dad, if our Ming Dynasty had this kind of food production, you could fight every day. Zhu

Gaochi said to Zhu Di with great emotion.[]

With so much grain produced every year, they would never be able to eat it all in their Ming Dynasty!

Moreover, if there is more food, the population will be larger and the country will be stronger.

In the ancient cold weapon era, although this calculation was a bit absolute, it roughly meant this.

"With so much food every year, I really wonder how the Dragon Kingdom produced it in later generations?"

Zhu Zhanji on the side sighed.

And his question was not only a question for him, but also a question for many ancient people in the past dynasties.

At this moment, many barrages came:

"Another great year! The golden fragrance of rice!"

"Overflowing with happiness!"

"Congratulations on reaching a new high! I have food in my hands and don’t panic in my heart!"

"Thanks to Grandpa Yuan, since he developed hybrid rice, we in the Dragon Kingdom no longer have to worry about going hungry!"

"When Grandpa Yuan celebrates his birthday, I must tell him that hybrid rice has set a new record! The yield per mu in double seasons exceeded 3,000 kilograms, and the record yield per mu in single season reached 2,600 kilograms."

"Yuan Lao Qiangu! A true national warrior!"

"……"

Looking at the data on the yield per mu of hybrid rice in the barrage, emperors of all dynasties were stunned.

Double cropping of rice yields 3,000 kilograms per mu? The yield per mu in a single season is 2,600 kilograms?

In the eyes of emperors of all dynasties, this data is simplyIt's outrageous!

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin had completely lost his composure and kept mumbling:

"3000 pounds! 3000 pounds! One acre of land can actually produce so much food!"

"Incredible, incredible!"

After muttering a few words, he suddenly asked the officials of the Tang Dynasty:

"What is the hybrid rice among the people of the Dragon Kingdom in later generations? Dear friends, have you ever heard of this rice seed?"

His eyes were full of hope, hoping that someone could provide him with some information about this hybrid rice.

If this rice seed could be brought to Datang, then Datang would never be short of food from now on.!

"Your Majesty, judging from the words of these people from the Dragon Kingdom in later generations, this hybrid rice was developed by an old man named Yuan from the Dragon Kingdom in later generations, and it was not available in the Tang Dynasty."

Fang Xuanling replied.

Li Shimin took a closer look and found that it was indeed the case.

He had just been focusing on those numbers and didn't pay attention to these details.

"This Mr. Yuan is really awesome! The merit lies in the future!"

Li Shimin sighed with emotion.

After thinking for a moment, he said in a deep voice:

"Now that the later generation Mr. Yuan can develop such powerful hybrid rice, it proves that rice varieties can be continuously improved and optimized, and new varieties can be created."

"Auxiliary machine, according to my decree, Datang will immediately establish a yamen to research rice seeds, and summon talented people from all over the world who are proficient in rice seed cultivation methods to jointly develop rice seeds!"

"Whether it takes ten or twenty years, we must develop better rice seeds for Datang!"

"Also, this yamen must always exist in our Datang Dynasty, and the research and development of rice seeds must continue!"

Li Shimin's attitude was extremely firm.

He was deeply stimulated by the terrifying grains produced by the Dragon Kingdom every year and the terrifying yield records of hybrid rice in later generations.

He intuitively realized the importance of excellent rice seeds.

He felt that as long as the Tang Dynasty continued, Research and development of rice seeds are constantly being carried out.

Maybe one day, the Tang Dynasty will be able to produce the hybrid rice that was used in the Dragon Kingdom in later generations.

"Obey!"

Changsun Wuji replied in a deep voice.

This matter is indeed a major matter related to the national economy and people's livelihood.

At this time, Li Jing suddenly said:

"Your Majesty, when I first led the army to sweep Jiaozhou, I heard that there is a kind of rice in Annan that has a very short growth cycle and can be harvested twice or even three times a year."

027"I didn’t believe this at the time, and was busy leading the army to pacify all parties, so I didn’t pay attention to this matter."

"Now I think about it, maybe there really is such a rice seed in Annan"

"Your Majesty can issue a decree and order the Annan Protectorate to investigate this matter. When Li

Shimin heard this, his face lit up with joy, and he immediately said:

"Immediately send my decree to the Annan Protectorate to search for this rice seed!"

……

The plane of Ming Taizu.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao looked at the barrage on the giant screen and were frightened.

The yield of rice per mu is 3,000 kilograms!

Simply amazing!

Their grain yield per mu in the Ming Dynasty is about 333 kilograms, which has far exceeded the previous dynasties, and far exceeded it!

But what do they see now?

The yield per mu is 3,000 kilograms!

In later generations, the Dragon Kingdom was actually able to increase the yield per mu to nearly ten times that of the Ming Dynasty! envious! envy!

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's eyes turned red!

"Why can’t we, the Ming Dynasty, have such rice seeds?"

"If Ming Dynasty had this hybrid rice, we wouldn’t worry about the people of Ming Dynasty going hungry!"

"Why don’t we have people like Mr. Yuan in Ming Dynasty?"

Lao Zhu has completely lost his composure.

Zhu Biao said:

"Dad, it’s not too late for us to start developing rice seeds now!"

"There is no need to increase the yield to 3,000 kilograms per mu like hybrid rice. Even if the yield per mu is doubled, the people of Ming Dynasty can still have enough to eat! Zhu

Yuanzhang nodded heavily and said:

"Boss, you are right!"

"We will issue an order to establish a new yamen to be responsible for this matter!"

……

In addition to the plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty and the plane of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, there were many emperors who issued the same order in other planes throughout the dynasties.

They were all stimulated by the Dragon Kingdom's huge annual grain production and the terrifying yield per hectare of hybrid rice.

Just then.

A new picture on the giant screen shocked the ancients of all dynasties.

Among the huge golden rice fields that stretch as far as the eye can see.

Several harvesters are working non-stop.

From close-up shots, ancient people of all dynasties saw these machines shuttle back and forth among the sea of ​​golden rice fields.

Cutting, threshing, weeding, screening, loading and other processes are completed in one go.

This scene made them stupid again

"What is that?"

The ancient people of all dynasties were very puzzled.

After they roughly understood the functions of those machines from the barrage, they were shocked again.

"How many acres of land can this thing mow in half an hour?"

"Can one of these things cost dozens of workers?"

"Amazing! It's so amazing! Just this one thing does all the work!"

"……"

Ancient people of all dynasties were frightened by modern agricultural technology.

They deeply felt the impact of modern industrial technology on the dimensionality reduction of ancient low-level agriculture.

Until this video finished playing, their minds were still filled with images of those large harvesters shuttling back and forth in the golden rice fields.
