Chapter eight hundred and seventy-eight education is the opening of the border
How to describe Gaomen can be written in different ways in different literary works. For example, some people think that Gaomen is covered with famous brands and jewelry, which are priceless, but it just says "I am rich" written on his face.
However, superficial wealth cannot really improve one's family status. On the contrary, it will only make people feel tacky like a nouveau riche.
Take Zhang Shuning's wedding as an example. How much it costs, how much ostentation there is, and the ten-mile red makeup are all secondary. Let me just say that as the director of the best school in the Ming Dynasty, Liu Sanwu has just arrived in Beijing to report on his work at the Ministry of Education.
Such a leader in higher education in the Ming Dynasty was only ranked at the third table on the guest list... And considering that he had taught Zhang Shuning, he was considered a former teacher, otherwise he would have been placed ten tables away.
.
In today's Grand Master's Mansion, all princes and nobles are worthless.
After all, there are more than a dozen princesses alone, and even more princes. You guys should just step aside!
Sorry, I really can't get on the stage.
But obviously, in this wedding, just based on status, you still can't get in front.
Zhang Shuning noticed that Liu Sanwu was at the third table, and immediately gave Zhang Chengtian a look. The little fat man understood and hurriedly told his father. Then Liu Sanwu was invited to the first table.
As soon as he came over, his legs immediately became weak.
At this table, there are Li Zhen, the great emperor, Xu Da, the imperial censor, Zhu Biao, the prince, and Sun Yan, the chief assistant of Zhongshu, all of whom are serving Song Lian. In addition, there are Jiang Nan, the admiral of the Ming Dynasty Bank, and Zhang Ximeng, the grand master.
The two seats are for Queen Ma and Zhu Yuanzhang.
That's right, in the entire Ming Dynasty, all the people who had the final say were at this table.
When Liu Sanwu came to Beijing, he wanted to get more funds for Jimin School.
There is no doubt that one of them nodded, and Liu Sanwu's matter was settled immediately.
But Liu Sanwu really didn't dare to say another word for fear of getting himself into trouble.
After he greeted him with courtesy, Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife happened to arrive.
After greeting the guests, Lao Zhu arrived at his seat and sat down.
First, he said auspicious words to Zhang Ximeng and his wife for a while, then looked around again and landed on Liu Sanwu.
"We have watched Shu Ning grow up. He is indeed a good boy. He has contributed greatly to our Ming Dynasty! Xu Da... when did you say the court would take over the southwest?"
Xu Da immediately said: "When I came to power, in the early days of the Kingdom, Tang He planned the southwest, and Zhu Ying led his troops to recover Yunnan. At that time, the southwest was considered the territory of the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, but then shook his head, "You are right, but not entirely right. To consolidate a place, the most important thing is to control the people's hearts. As long as the top and bottom are smooth and everyone is in their own place, it can truly be considered as deeply rooted in the people's hearts and mastering the territory.
Shu Ning ran a school in Longchang, sent dozens of students to Jimin Academy, and became the pillars of the Ming Dynasty. Until now, it can be said that the southwest has been conquered, what do you think?"
Xu Da immediately smiled and said: "The superior has a clear vision. It seems that it is caused by soldiers and horses, but also by education. The two are equally important, and perhaps education is more important!"
At this time, Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "Military control is the prerequisite for the implementation of enlightenment. Without military control, it is impossible to implement enlightenment smoothly. And the smooth implementation of enlightenment can reduce the cost of control and control the territory safely for a long time. These two can be said to be
They complement each other, regardless of each other!”
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing, "Did you hear that? Grand Master is really good at talking. The two are indeed equal to each other. In this way, Shu Ning and the others can be regarded as generals, and their achievements are as good as those of Wei Guogong!"
Xu Da smiled and said: "That's true. The superiors can see it clearly."
They chatted for a while, and then Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Warriors require brave generals, but they also need to be able to keep up with them, including supplies of food and grass, pay, silver and weapons... Liu Qing, your schools are equivalent to the treasury of the Ministry of Household Affairs. They are responsible for
As for the logistical equipment, you must be aware of it."
Liu Sanwu was startled and was about to stand up. Zhang Ximeng next to him waved his hand and said, "The superiors are asking ordinary questions. You don't need to pay too much attention to them. It's just casual chatting."
Liu Sanwu felt bitter in his heart. How dare he really treat it as a small talk, but he did not stand up after all.
"What the Grand Master said is that I have thought about it and we should cultivate it carefully. All students from Southwest China who are admitted to the school should be supported, provided with tuition fees, and helped with their placement. The best teachers should be assigned to ensure that they become talents."
Zhang Ximeng suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Liu Shan, according to what you say, students from Yingtian in the future should go to the southwest and study Longchang Middle School?"
Liu Sanwu was immediately shocked and said hurriedly: "Master, I didn't mean this. Please don't misunderstand me..."
Zhang Ximeng waved his hand, "It doesn't have to be like this. What I want to say is that students must be treated equally. If there are difficulties, it will be the same no matter where the students are. Maybe there are more in the southwest, maybe less in other places, but in short, as long as
If there are difficulties, we should treat them equally and not treat them differently."
Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded and said with a smile: "What the Grand Master said is exactly what we think in our hearts. In the final analysis, it is still fair! Educating students is equivalent to opening up territory. If you don't do it right, the person in charge will be infamy for the ages.
of."
Liu Sanwu was shaken up again!
Being able to join this table certainly gives me a lot of face.
But these words are similar to knives. They are all directed towards me. The knives draw blood and stab the vital parts. It does hurt a little!
And the requests they made were really difficult to handle.
You said you want to give preferential treatment to students from southwest China, but others told you that there are also students in disadvantaged situations in other places.
They demand fair treatment of students, but they also value education so seriously.
There is no doubt that the tasks in the southwest, northwest, and remote places are heavier!
If we don't take some countermeasures, I, the mountain leader, will become a sinner.
"Your Majesty, I, I believe that we can be more fair when allocating quotas... I was just thinking, is it appropriate not to set up examination centers if there are not enough students to pass the exam? Just take this time as an example.
, if Shu Ning had not gone to Guizhou to run a school, we don’t know how long it would have taken to set up examination centers in the three southwestern provinces. In the same situation, there were also several northwestern provinces. Both the King of Qin and the King of Jin planned to set up a school. In the direction of the Western Regions, the educational tasks would be even more arduous.
, and even have to face Timur's forces... I thought it would be possible to send a group of outstanding teachers there, and send students to communicate with each other... After all, we can no longer rely on Shu Ning to run a school in the northwest to solve this problem, right?
"
Hearing what he said, a smile appeared on Zhang Ximeng's face, "That's what it means. Fairness is our concept. Strengthening the dynasty, promoting education, and consolidating the territory are our actual needs... How we should weigh it is exactly yours.
The mission is there!”
Liu Sanwu nodded repeatedly, "Thank you, Grand Master, for your teaching. I understand."
Lao Zhu smiled and said, "It's best for you to understand what the Grand Master said, but we need to see the effect, the immediate effect... Jiangxi's level is indeed high, and we know this, but the proportion of Jiangxi students in Jimin Academy is too high
If it is too high, it needs to be reduced. Similarly, the proportion of Shandong students in Fudan, and the proportion of Peking students in Peking University... must be reduced. Don't think it is unfair, we have raised so many people with Ming Dynasty's finances and taxes.
If you are not satisfied with the school, then you are a little greedy."
Liu Sanwu nodded bitterly, in the final analysis, we still have to cut the flesh!
But he had no choice. As of today, it had to be this way.
Compared with a few years ago, the conditions in Daming are much better.
In addition to the three top children's schools, ten normal schools, including Beiping Normal School, have begun recruiting students and have produced graduates.
For example, Zhang Shuning opened a school in Longchang, which attracted some normal students.
They are also very motivated to be admitted to Jimin Academy.
Maybe they can't do it, but their students can definitely do it!
This is the eve of the graduation of a large number of normal students... In the past, the implementation of the school opening order was limited to literacy at most, but this time, it can be divided into subject teaching and the promotion of new knowledge.
The last time, it was to break the monopoly of wealthy and wealthy families on school places.
This time, it is promoting the equalization of educational resources across the country.
And it's obvious that this time it's averaging to the west.
Southwest, northwest, these regions will receive a large amount of investment, and a large number of outstanding teachers will also join.
The whole situation will definitely be greatly improved.
While they were chatting, Zhang Shuning was already on horseback, dressed in festive red, carrying the bride back in a sedan chair.
It was rare that this time he didn't refuse.
After all, this is the person he is determined to hold hands with for the rest of his life.
In addition, with Xia Zhifeng's current scientific achievements, she is indeed worthy of it.
Xia Zhifeng not only proposed the theory of a round earth, but also made great achievements in mechanics... She is now tinkering with calculus and gravity.
If nothing else happens, I think there is hope for achieving results before the age of twenty-four or five.
And Xia Zhifeng is not the kind of person who will spend the rest of his life searching for gods, not to mention Zhang Ximeng's guidance. From now on, this girl is destined to be a monument in the history of science!
Some treatment is also taken for granted.
Zhang Shuning sent the bride into the bridal chamber, came back, and toasted her everywhere.
Don’t worry, the considerate Zhang Laoer has replaced Zhang Shuning’s drinks with boiled water.
Only when he arrived at Liu Sanwu's place, Zhang Shuning exchanged for serious liquor.
"Chief Lao Shan, students caused trouble for you in the past."
Liu Sanwu hurriedly said: "You can't say that! I understand all your hard work. Speaking of which, having you as my student brings honor to me!"
Zhang Shuning nodded quickly, and then said seriously: "Thank you very much, Mr. Lao Shan, for your understanding. From now on, the children will have to look after you, sir!"
Liu Sanwu hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I understand that this is a major event related to the future of the Ming Dynasty. How can I be confused! Later, I will join forces with other school leaders to jointly submit a letter and redistribute the exam quotas!"
Zhang Shuning thanked him repeatedly, and then went to other tables one after another. Finally, he went to the student area in the East Cross Campus, where his students were waiting.
"The Ronin Begins with Douluo"
"Chief Shan, you are so handsome!"
Zhang Shuning's face turned slightly red, "That's all I can teach you. Remember, when you get married in the future, don't invite too many people!"
After saying this, Zhang Shuning turned around and ran straight to the latrine, with the students laughing crazily behind him...
