Ran Yingying said embarrassedly.

  In normal times, these two people are more friendly, because they both have special identities, and in the palace, they have a little bit of sympathy for each other.

  In the end, no surprise, Ran Yingying won the championship of the strongest singing talent.

  In the dance competition, the suspense is not too big. With Daji, the peerless enchantress, no one else can take this champion away.

  After confirming the identities of Ran Yingying and Daji, Yan Ge has selected a large number of palace maids, who will sing and dance in the Longyuan Hall day and night, singing and dancing non-stop! The mission of singing and dancing is going on vigorously. will be completed successfully.

  This absurd event spread widely and became another well-known hedonic idea of ​​Yan Ge.

  But after all, this is what he did in the harem himself.

  The courtiers did not interfere too much.

  But Yan Ge's announcement of another move to be implemented has caused a lot of waves.

  That is to establish Hongdumen School! The so-called Hongdumen School does not teach students etiquette, spring and autumn, Confucian classics, but poetry, calligraphy and painting as the inspection content, which greatly violates the traditional educational philosophy of the Great Wei Dynasty. The senior officials represented by him raised vehement objections on the grounds that he could not govern the country by being able to write poetry, calligraphy and painting, and making such a person an official would lead to the defeat of the country! After hearing these opinions, Yan Ge retorted disapprovingly: The school is to be an official and study in the school to cultivate the sentiment, as long as you can cultivate your life, you can learn anything, and poetry, calligraphy and painting are also a skill!"

  As a modern person, Yan Ge has a much broader vision than these old intellectuals.

  In the traditional society, the education and training method with the main purpose of politics is not bad, and to a certain extent, it can cultivate suitable political talents for the country.

  But the key point is that for a truly benign and vigorous society, it is not enough to cultivate some scholars who understand the scriptures and clear meanings! The so-called cultural construction is to comprehensively cultivate cultural talents in all aspects and enhance the overall cultural atmosphere of the society. .

  This is also what Yan Ge thinks of "Hongdu School"

  This thing is the reason why he will do it even if it is not a task requirement.

  This is one of the rare actions of a foolish monarch that appears to be absurd on the surface, but actually has its social value.

  As for

  The importance of cultural heritage to a country is a more complicated issue. On the whole, although strengthening cultural construction in a feudal society is not as urgent as in modern society, it is still necessary.

  Its significance lies first in social stability, which is what Yan Ge cares about most, after all, he still wants to be his Taiping King comfortably.

  The improvement of the average cultural literacy can enhance the social stability, which is not difficult to understand. First, the people's quality is high, and they will naturally not be so easily bewitched. Second, the people's spiritual life has been satisfied, and they will not be casual. rose up to rebel.

  The traditional collections of classics and histories,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, etc., are all for scholars who are interested in entering the office, and they are too far away for ordinary people to exert any influence.

  On the contrary, these poems, lyrics, music, calligraphy, painting, etc., can be enjoyed by both refined and popular, and can maximize their radiation ability.

  On the other hand, even in ancient times, the cultural industry can be converted into productive forces, and its industrial value should not be underestimated! You must know that although there were no TV, network, newspapers and magazines in ancient times, there were teahouses and restaurants.

  , brothel, goulan, academy and literary center and other cultural industries! The prosperous cultural industry can drive the consumption of these places, which in turn can drive the development of related industries. objective.

  Therefore, Yan Ge firmly believes that "Hongdu School"

  The establishment of the school is very meaningful. In the end, despite the opposition, it was announced that the Hongdu School would be established as quickly as possible, and the first batch of students would be recruited! The task of opening the Hongdu School and recruiting students was handed over to Yu Xinghuai, a regular attendant of Sanqi. As the right-hand man of Yan Ge, in addition to the chiefs of the three prefectures and other historical talents, the most important reason why Yu Xinghuai received this task this time is that he was the champion of the imperial examination in the [-]nd year of Guangyu of the previous dynasty. Still a little-known poet, it would be more appropriate to have such a person of great influence in the cultural world take up this position.

  After receiving the task, Yu Xinghuai did not live up to Yan Ge's expectations, and quickly got things done.

  Regarding the choice of the location, after Yu Xinghuai asked Yan Ge for instructions, he placed the newly built Hongdumen School in the West Garden of Miyagi.

  The choice of the location is also very particular.

  The original Taixue was set up in the East Garden of Miyagi, near the foot of the emperor, which shows the importance attached to the traditional feudal education system.

  This time, the setting of Hongdumen School in Xiyuan can reflect its stance against the imperial court. Moreover, Xiyuan is quiet and elegant, with flowing water lotus flowers. It is also a place with a strong artistic atmosphere, which is suitable for the characteristics of Hongdumen School.

  After the location of Hongdumen School was selected, the basic school premises were quickly built, and the facilities should be fully equipped. Now the only problem is to recruit students, and this is actually the task of Hongdumen School. one of the difficulties.

  Noble disciples of noble families would be willing to enter the Hongdu School. Those who studied these subjects that they seemed to be unreliable before, even the disciples of the poor family, who had been influenced by traditional educational ideas for a long time, did not like them very much. this new school.

  What's more, what kind of way out will be after entering the school is also a big issue that needs to be considered.

  Gongsheng who study in Taixue have a high chance of being able to emerge in the imperial examinations, and they will usually go smoothly in their careers in the future, and if Hongdumenxue wants to have the attraction of Taixue, naturally it also needs to solve the way out for students.

  Just like in modern society, university rankings also regard employment as an important indicator.

  In order to solve this problem, after discussing with Yu Xinghuai, Yan Ge and Yu Xinghuai first decided to set up several teaching titles enshrined by the imperial court in Hongdumen School. Those with teaching titles can not only have official rank, but also enjoy generous court welfare benefits, allowing They can concentrate on studying poetry, calligraphy and painting.

  In addition, the court is still: the establishment of "museums" in various places

  If the graduates of Hongdumen School do not stay in the central government, they can also consider entering local museums and become leading talents in local disciplines.

  It can also promote the development of related cultural industries.

  As the saying goes, excellence in education leads to an official career. In order to maximize the attractiveness of Hongdumen School, Yan Ge also proposed to directly select the best talents in the school into Longtu Pavilion and become important staff and planners around the emperor.

  This kind of treatment was originally unique to Taixue, and now Hongdumen School will also enjoy this privilege! As for the admissions issue, Yu Xinghuai finally thought of the most crude but possibly the most effective method-posting a notice! So soon, From the whole university to the state government office, to the county seat, all the admission notices of Hongdumen School are posted.

  The admission notice is open to all classes of the Great Wei Dynasty, among them, it tries its best to publicize the importance attached by the Emperor to Hongdu School, the favorable treatment of Hongdu School and the bright future of students.

  The admission notice was written by Yan Ge himself, and each copy was stamped with the emperor's seal.

  Feilu reminds you: three things to read, collect and push

Chapter 94 Boycotted

  Shannan West Road, Zizhou City.

  Zizhou is a famous hometown of ritual and music, and the educational atmosphere is particularly strong. It is said that there are more than ten jinshi in a small alley in Zizhou! What an honor! However, the official notice posted this time has caused Zizhou The uproar in the city.

  A certain scholar stood beside the notice, shook his head and sighed bitterly: "Alas, the world is getting worse and morals are declining, can it be that a group of people who can only make some obscenities and rhetoric can also gain His Majesty's appreciation?"

  Some people were filled with righteous indignation: "No, we must resolutely resist this ethos, maintain the spirit of our great Wei literati, and do not do kitsch things!"

  There are many aristocratic families who have joined forces, not only strictly prohibiting their own family's children from enrolling in the Hongdu School, but also using their own influence to prevent others from participating in it.

  They thought that as long as they collectively criticized the policies of Hongdumen School, they could coerce fishing boats and cause no one to sign up.

  But they were wrong about this.

  Although many people on the bright side were impassioned and plausible, the actual situation was that the majority of the underprivileged disciples saw a winding path leading to the secluded in the Hongdu School.

  Although Hongdumen School is not too learned after all, and studying in it is incomparable to the real career, but for these lower-level literati who were originally excluded from high-level giants, Hongdumen School is already a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity An opportunity to change destiny.

  Therefore, they said no, but they secretly and honestly submitted an application for admission to the local superintendent.

  Of course, Hongdumen School, as a top-level university in the country alongside Taixue, is not something you can enter if you want to.

  After applying for admission, it also has to go through a lot of inspections, and finally only the best and best people can enter the school.

  Hongdu School adopts the selection method of strict entry and strict exit. Even if you are fortunate enough to join in, if you waste your time and do not work hard to strengthen your skills, you will not be able to pass the final graduation exam.

  Only in this way can the best talents be cultivated.

  After doing all this, Yan Ge thought that he could wait for the prompt of the completion of the task, but who would have thought that there was no movement from the system.

  The furious Yan Ge hurriedly questioned the system: "Black-hearted system, are you cheating on my quest reward!"

  The system answered righteously, "This task is not something that can be completed as long as the students are absorbed into the Hongdu School.

  In order to prevent the host from taking chances, this task must be completed only after the first batch of students from Hongdu School have graduated and passed the systematic test!"

  I'll go, you still control the system very strictly.

  Yan Ge slandered.

  Anyway, the first batch of students from Hongdu School should graduate in a few months, and it will not be too late to check the [-] points of this reward! The Hongdumen School incident is a good opportunity to fight against academics and the Renaissance! That is to let the first batch of graduates of Hongdumen School and Taixue students have an artistic exchange! Traditional views do not all think that poetry Calligraphy and painting are just trails, and for literati who have mastered the collections of classics and history,,,,,,,,, these avenues are easy for literati! Then arrange a competition at that time to combat the arrogance of traditional literati.

  Taking this opportunity may also kick off the prelude to education reform.

  Yan Ge decided to set up five examinations for poetry, ci, fu, calligraphy, and painting in the graduation examination of Hongdu School. The top five in each subject could directly enter the Longtu Pavilion, and the champion could directly become a Longtu Pavilion bachelor. ! That is equivalent to the emperor's close literati.

  Glory! In this way, students are more motivated to sign up for Hongdu School.

  On this day, Ning Ke entered the palace and met Yan Ge.

  This... big businessman is in high spirits.

  With a spring breeze on his face, he knelt down and said after seeing Yan Ge: "Your Majesty, according to your instructions, I will go out to sea to carry out the trade of special products of Dawei, especially the new products of Songtao Mulberry Wine and Yunhua Shujin, and I really made a lot of money! "

  "Up to now, the total income has reached [-] million taels of silver, and Wei Chen has given [-] taels of them to His Majesty."

  Yan Ge smiled and said, "Hey, Ning Qing, don't be so polite.

  Since the income is [-] million taels, you can keep [-] million taels."

  Ning Ke was immediately apprehensive: "Your Majesty, this is impossible, if there is no support from Your Majesty, Xiao: How can you have this status today.

  As long as your majesty has a request, the villain can't wait to give all [-] taels to your majesty."

  Yan Ge thought to himself, even if you can talk like a kid, just you businessmen, if I really take [-] taels, I'm afraid you secretly want to swallow me alive! But he still smiled on the surface. Yi Rongrong said: "Ning Qing don't refuse, this is what you deserve!"

  Ning Ke then pushed again and again, and finally accepted the ten million taels of silver.

  In fact, it's not that Yan Ge doesn't love money, it's that he values ​​Ning Ke's talent. With him as an agent, he will only bring more income to the national treasury in the future! Increasingly, the tariffs brought on by overseas trade have increased significantly.

  However, after all, the tariff ratio cannot be compared with the commission ratio of the agent sharing model, so the share given to him by Ningke this time is almost the same as the tariff revenue for a quarter.

  It can be seen that the huge profits of overseas trade! "Your Majesty, since the financial affairs of the family have always been managed internally, the villain specially brought her to meet and review the minister who manages the treasury."

  After Ning Ke finished speaking, his wife Ning Yaxin also slowly walked into the hall.

  Ning Yaxin wore a simple and elegant light cyan sweater today, and she tied a tall woman's bun, showing a strong charm of a beautiful mature woman in her gestures, making it unforgettable.

  Yan Ge couldn't help but feel envious when he saw it, this Ning Ke is really beautiful! Of course, Ning Ke is a capable person under Yan Ge after all, and Ning Yaxin is also a dignified and generous girl, not like that kind of... vixen , Yan Ge didn't want to be too outrageous, so he silently swallowed a mouthful of saliva and went back.

  Sins, sins, I'm really not a beast! I'm not a fool! Yan Ge secretly warned himself in his heart to calm down the mind disturbed by Ning Ya's heart

  The two major tasks of Song and Dance and Hongdu Gate School are already in progress, and it is time to start the "Four Hundred and Eighty Temples" with the most generous rewards.

  This task is over.

  As a result, the peaceful meeting for many days after the Northwest Rebellion was finally blown apart by a few new imperial decrees promulgated by Yan Ge.

  The first is banking and currency reform.

  This is Fan Li's first vague idea to Yan Ge, and the final plan formed under the guidance of Yan Ge.

  In fact, when Fan Li explained his views in front of Yan Ge, Yan Ge was very shocked.

  Fan Li actually considered that the current copper coins, silver taels and gold are inconvenient to carry in large quantities, which objectively hinders the long-distance business and trade of merchants.

  Although this idea was only Fan Li's preliminary opinion, Yan Ge immediately responded.

  Think of it, isn't this the prototype of paper money! Paper money is not so new in ancient China, for example, the Song Dynasty has already appeared named "Jiaozi"

  However, due to anti-counterfeiting, credit, purchasing power and other reasons, the application of paper money in ancient society is still not very extensive.
