The embarrassing situation facing the Ming Dynasty now is that there are too few people who can use it, not officials who have passed the imperial examination system, but people who have truly possessed new ideas.

Many times, Emperor Chongzhen wanted to promote more changes in his heart, but there were so many people available. Even if there were many good ideas, they had to take them step by step.

Emperor Chongzhen is better at greed than anyone else to chew too much.

Especially at this stage, the Ming Dynasty is an era of bad luck. It seems that the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty are everywhere, but unfortunately this is not the case in many places.

Reality is often very cruel.

"How many poor students have been recruited in the imperial villages in Zhili now?" Emperor Chongzhen, dressed in casual clothes, walked on the bustling street and asked Wang Chengen beside him: "In addition to those orphans, how many children of the politicians really entered the new school to study?"

"Return to the emperor... the master's words."

Wang Chengen paused, glanced at the left and right, and bowed slightly and said, "According to the previous situation, the Huangzhuang New School opened in various places has recruited more than 700 poor students.

Most of these poor students have no hope of taking the imperial examination, so they are very satisfied with the salary of the new school.

In addition to the orphans whom I supported, there were more than 50,000 children of the age of the poliest, who were practicing various disciplines ordered by the master to compile.”

"Um."

Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while and said, "These children of the illegitimate children should be all the victims who were previously resettled. So during these days, the Sichuan and Hai will gather orphans together. How did it happen?

Now the world is not peaceful, and disasters occur frequently in various places, and selling children and daughters is bound to be serious. In order not to affect political achievements, local governments are afraid that they will hide this matter more."

"Reply to the master."

Wang Chengen continued: "Chuan and sea always gather together orphans, and there are more than 70,000 people. The largest ones are almost adults. According to your instructions, these people have been sent to Xishan.

However, in the past few months, Cao Tongzhi selected more than 2,000 people, saying that he was training backbones for the Jinyiwei.

Now there is a problem facing Xishan, which is that there are too few poor students who teach their lessons, but I have ordered people to hire them elsewhere."

Cultivating talents from multiple fields is something that Emperor Chongzhen has been doing secretly. In this era when illiterate people are everywhere, it is not bad to be able to read and write.

Even if you cannot pass the imperial examination and enter the Ming Dynasty, you can still find jobs to make a living in various places.

However, in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, if you want to improve the productivity of the Ming Dynasty and make a complete change in the Ming Dynasty, you must cultivate more talents, which is not limited to being an official.

For example, gun development, agriculture, accounting, smelting, textile, shipbuilding, etc., there are too many fields, and a group of high-quality technical talents are needed.

Especially in the field of chemical industry, the Ming Dynasty must develop as soon as possible.

Faced with the frequent disasters, if the first generation of fertilizers can be developed and produced under the planning of rectifying the administration and developing water conservancy, it will be of great benefit to maintaining and increasing production.

"You have to pay more attention to this matter."

Emperor Chongzhen said as he walked: "Although there are many things to be taken care of, I am very concerned about this matter and must not be slacking off at all.

No matter how much money you spend, you have to recruit more poor families. This is the key to supporting new learning. Without their teachings from various places, new talents cannot be cultivated.

In addition, Sichuan and Hai will continue to develop and gather orphans in the local area. What is hateful is this world, but those orphans are innocent.

Since their parents can’t support them, I will raise them.”

"Don't worry, Master, this matter was caught by me personally, and there will be no mistakes."

Wang Chengen hurriedly replied: "But there is an interesting thing. Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, also built a private school in Fucaifang.

Now the main buildings have been basically completed, and most of the children of school age recruited are the children of disaster victims who were previously resettled. This incident has caused quite a lot of heated discussion in the capital."

"Yeah?"

Emperor Chongzhen stopped and smiled and said, "I've been so busy these days. I've almost forgotten the Fucaifang. Let's go and take a look."

As he said that, Emperor Chongzhen walked towards Fucaifang.

For Emperor Chongzhen, this time he left the palace, he was just to relax and take a look at the situation in the various yards in the capital.

It is bad to be in the palace for a long time and rely on some memorials to understand the situation outside. This is beyond the essence of reality.

Perhaps Emperor Chongzhen would not do such things as leaving Beijing to inspect the world, but he would do it by walking around the capital and understanding the local situation.

After all, no matter how many plans are made, if it is separated from the essence of reality, it will ultimately be another form of empty talk that will ruin the country.

"After you reminded me of something."

On the way to Fucaifang, Emperor Chongzhen reached out and said, "To enhance the foundation of new learning, we cannot rely solely on Xishan and Huangzhuang to open new learning, but must also be implemented locally and as soon as possible.

Um.

In the name of the local disaster relief administration, a batch of new schools will be opened in each prefecture and county in batches, and the scholars and officials from the administration can be asked to teach their lessons in batches.

In this way, not only can we cultivate more talents, but we can also call those scholars and officials to get in touch with the core ideas of the new learning.

After I go back, I will remind me to do this."

"Here!"

Wang Chengen bowed and responded.

Walking in this bustling and lively street, looking at the clean ground, even a hundred steps apart, there will be a garbage storage place, and there will be a public toilet in hundreds of steps. After seeing these scenes, Emperor Chongzhen’s face became more smiling.

Compared with the neat environment in later generations, although there are still many shortcomings in the capital, the change has been great compared to the previous one.

The entire public health can prevent the outbreak of the epidemic.

According to the original timeline, an epidemic broke out almost every few years in the Ming Dynasty, and even this situation occurred in the capital.

Perhaps in other parts of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen could not achieve absolute certainty, but in the capital, the capital, and the northern Zhili, the basic foundation he established must gradually advance the progress of this matter.

"There is another thing, you have to start recruiting a group of doctors." Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while and said to Wang Chengen: "Start to build a traditional Chinese medicine house in Xishan and cultivate more young doctors. This matter is very important. After you go back, you will start planning."

"Here!"

Wang Chengen did not dare to hesitate and immediately responded.

However, Wang Chengen smiled bitterly in his heart. When his emperor did not spend money, fortunately, the money stored in the treasury was really like flowing water. If there were no Sichuan and Hai Zonghui, and the factories planned to build by the imperial village, if he wanted to support such expenses, he would be afraid that the treasury would have been empty.
