Chapter 825: Convince the Heavenly Khan with Reason II
"What exactly is the Doctorate?"
When Zhao Anhui heard Wu Haogu mentioned the Doctorate Order, he asked. The Doctorate Order is very famous in Jiehe Shang City. Because when Song and Liao confronted each other due to the defeat of the Western Xia, a large number of members of the Doctorate Order were arranged to serve as Baozheng of the Baojia troops of Jiehe Shang City. He worked hard for more than half a year, causing a group of "Jiehe citizens" to be troubled.
At the same time, it also made the Liao court, who had been paying attention to Jiehe Market, noticed the "paramilitary organization" of the Doctorate. Zhao Anhui, who had a close relationship with senior figures in the Liao Dynasty, knew some of the Doctorate's affairs, but he still couldn't figure out what this organization did?
"The Doctorate was established to spread the Confucian way to the outside world. What he was preparing to do was the same as what Saint Confucius did when he traveled around the nations."
What Wu Haogu said is actually the standard explanation of the Doctoral Order is used to spread the Confucian Taoism. But in fact, the Doctoral Order is becoming more and more complicated, and even its founder, Wu Haogu, could not see its essence clearly.
The Doctoral Order was first a preaching organization, which was the original intention of establishing the Doctoral Order. However, after the confrontation between the Song and Liao border rivers (actually there is no real confrontation), this preaching organization became increasingly militarized.
Many of the Jiehe Utility Soldiers and Knights who returned from the Northwest Front were arranged to join the Doctorate Order. Including Zhao Zhongge, Murong Gu, Tiandi Xuanhuang Four Daggers, and Ma Kuo, who returned from the Jurchens, also joined the Doctorate Order.
At the same time, in order to make reasonable use of the military talents at hand, Wu Haogu and Murong Wangyou made these officers who joined the Order become professors of the Military Opportunities and Knights College and the Jiehe Branch of the Yuntai Academy of Academy of Sciences.
This is equivalent to using the Doctorate to connect the various military resources mastered by Wu Haogu, turning the Doctorate to the core of a military group.
With the joining of these professional officers who have truly been on the battlefield and mastered the most advanced army tactics of this era, the military capabilities of the Doctorate have become even higher.
In addition, with the joining of a large number of personnel, a complete set of management institutions has begun to be established within the PhD regiment, namely the General Affairs Department, which is in charge of the affairs of the PhD regiment; the Management Department, which is responsible for the Finance, Construction, Logistics and other matters of the PhD regiment; the Evangelist responsible for the dissemination of Confucian truth to the outside world; the Search Department responsible for theoretical research; the Evangelist responsible for military protection; the Evangelist responsible for doctoral training and selection, etc.
However, it seems that the Order is not right to regard the Order as a military preaching regiment.
Because the wealth mastered by the Doctorate has also expanded rapidly in the past few years.
In Wu Haogu's personal wealth map, it is divided into two categories: "inside" and "outside". Among them, the internal system is the property controlled by the Wu family's internal account, mainly the shares of the Gonghe Xing, the shares of Jiuxian Xing, the shares of Jiehe Chamber of Commerce, and Wu Haogu and Pan Qiaolian in Jiehe Shang City, Haizhou and Kaifeng Prefecture owned a large number of real estate astronomical properties. However, Wu Haogu could not control it at will because he was a "constitutional master".
The external property is the property operated by Wuhaogu in Jiehe Commercial City and Jingdong Commercial City. It includes Wanda Commercial Bank (mainly opened Wazi), Wangbei Travel (Jiehe Real Estate Industry), Jiehe Horse Farm, Jiehe Shipyard, Donghai Travel (Haizhou Real Estate Industry), Maritime Trading Company (this is a "state-owned enterprise", but it is also under the control of Wuhaogu), etc.
Unlike internal property, external property is not subject to Pan Qiaolian's supervision, and Wu Haogu can control it at will. Therefore, Wu Haogu can use these property to support the development of Yuntai Academy and the Doctorate. Therefore, 30% of the total income of this part of the external property (deducting the losses of the Jiehema Farm, Jiehe Shipyard and the profits that the Maritime Train Trading Company must pay) is now directly "donated" to the Doctorate.
In addition, since doctors are responsible for preaching, they are naturally teachers, so the doctoral group itself will train doctors as role models (there is no professional education discipline yet) so that they can act as teachers.
Therefore, Sikai Academy in Jiehe Shang City and Donghai Academy in Haizhou are both hosted by the doctoral group.
Therefore, after the popularity of the Biyong Academy and Yuntai Academy became popular, these five academies that taught Liuyi became popular. The doctoral group also benefited from it and received a large amount of sponsorship fees. This is the benefit of opening the academies in the Dashang Market. There are too many rich people who hope that their children will become successful! Similarly, this is also the beginning of the new education of Yuntai Academy serving industry and commerce!
With a large income, the doctoral group can not only pay high salaries to the doctoral students below, but also have a lot of surplus every year. This money has been invested in Jiehe Shang City and Jingdong Shang City, making the doctoral group's economic strength stronger, and can absorb more doctoral students in the future and open more academies...
Therefore, the Doctoral Order is not only a military group, but also a business entity and a teacher group.
Moreover, Wu Haogu still doesn’t know that the Doctorate now still has the Danluo Kingdom!
"Then... the Doctorate will also go to Anxi to spread the principles of Saint Confucius to the people who believe in the Tianfang Sect?"
Of course, Zhao Anhui knew what was going on in the four towns of Anxi now. Xixia and Dongheihan Uighurs were neighbors. So he had reason to doubt the ability of the Doctorate. Even if Confucius was reborn, there was probably no way?
"Of course," Wu Haogu nodded seriously, "The doctors in the Doctorate Order are good at convincing people with reason, and can definitely spread the great way in the Western Regions.
Moreover, the current officials of the Song Dynasty are going to be the Khan of the day! Tian Khan is the best at convinced people with reason. At that time, wasn’t it just that all nations came to pay tribute?”
Some people are not here! Zhao Anhuixin said: Don’t Goguryeo and Tubo refuse to recognize Li Shimin as their father? Is Zhao Ji even more awesome than Li Shimin now?
Of course, Wu Haogu did not see a suspicious expression on Zhao Anhui's face. When the officials reached their level, they had learned to control their emotions.
At this time, he, Zhao Anhui, Monk Zhishen and others had already walked outside the Xiping Palace.
So he smiled and said to Zhao Anhui: "Governor Zhao, let's talk about the matter of sending the Doctorate until King Xiping arrives at Kaifeng Prefecture.
Let's leave today!"
"Okay, let's leave now. After taking the Song Dynasty official family, I will visit your mansion again." Zhao Anhui bowed to the great monk Zhishen again, "Master, let's part here!"
"Okay," Master Zhishen smiled, "Shajia went to see the abbot first (referring to the abbot of Daxiangguo Temple). After you have agreed to lend money, you will come to pay homage to the princess."
...
Wu Haogu, Zhao Anhui and Master Zhishen broke up at the gate of the Xiping Palace, separated from Guo Xiaoxiao, and then returned to the Wu family mansion by the Jinshui River.
This time Pan Qiaolian did not follow Wu Haogu back to Kaifeng Mansion, but Guo Xiaoxiao accompanied him along the way. So he would not go to the Lihua Villa, but to the Wu family mansion.
In addition, when he was in Jiehe Market, he knew that his mother had another younger brother. He also knew that Wu Chengzhi would probably go back to Kaifeng Mansion before the end of the year, so he took Guo Xiaoxiao and others to the mansion together. By the way, he saw his younger brother and met his father again. Lao Wu was probably very happy, right? He is so old!
Sure enough, when Wu Haogu arrived at the entrance of the alley where the Wu family mansion was, he encountered a burst of firecrackers setting off.
Wang Po's son Zhang Sanbao, who was guarding the door to direct the firecrackers, was a fat black man in his thirties. Before the Wu Haogu brothers became rich, he worked as a chef in Panlou. Now the second housekeeper of the Wu family mansion saw Wu Haogu's large group of troops, and he flew up to meet him and sang a fat look at Wu Haogu.
"So it's the big husband, you're so kind."
Wu Haogu smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, you are fat again."
"It's all for you. Now your family is prosperous. You have a lot of oil and water. How can you not be fat?"
Wu Haogu laughed. Didn’t Zhang Sanbao get the oil from the Wu family? But those who are high-ranking officials don’t care, as long as these servants don’t cause trouble.
"The great official has already returned home," said Zhang Sanbao. "The second brother is also at home. If you go back again, it's really a family reunion."
"Haha, where is that third brother?" Wu Haogu asked, "How is it now?"
"Okay, okay." Zhang Sanbao smiled, "The firecrackers were set off for Xiaolangjun today."
"Today? Is it... a full moon?" Wu Haogu calculated, it seemed that it had passed long ago.
"No, it's the third brother who is the official!"
"Become an official?" Wu Haogu smiled, "Is there such a good official?"
"It's Dengshilang."
"What?" Wu Haogu laughed, "Zhang San, are you confused? How could it be Dengshilang?"
Dengshilang is a civil servant, and he is a ninth rank, and he is the third rank among the fourth rank. How could such a literary official be able to provide Wu Chengzhi's son?
The officials who were usually granted by Yinfu in the Song Dynasty were usually granted by Wu Haogu. Wu Haogu's two sons (Wu Tiege is a illegitimate son and have no official position) were both official titles of the third rank. Those who could receive civil servants must at least be the son of the prime minister or the important civil servant. Wu Haowen's son had some hope in the future to receive a civil servant, but how could Wu Chengzhi be able to obtain a civil servant? He himself was a little envoy, a sesame official...
"Didn't that give you good fortune to your elder brother?" Zhang Sanbao smiled, "It is because of your contribution that the official family has given you a civil servant."
"Nonsense..." Wu Haogu glared at Zhang Sanbao, but he didn't say all: How could a concubine give birth to a ninth-rank civil servant? And it was because of his own contribution that Pan Qiaolian would be the ninth-rank military officer at most.
By the way, Wu Chengzhi's behavior of promoting Feng Erniang to be upright is no problem among the people, but it will not be recognized by the officialdom and the nobles at all. The concubines are asserted as a concubine like Ximen Qing. How can the concubines bought in the brothel be upright?
