Zhang Haogu's requirements for "Da Ming Pao" are still very clear.
Three words, down to earth!
This is also closely related to the audience of "Da Ming Pao".
After all, at the beginning, the "Da Ming Pao" was also aimed at the general public, and it was meant to be read by farmers on farms and government officials. Their unified characteristic is that their cultural level is not very high.
Of course, Zhang Haogu's own cultural level is not enough.
It will definitely not work if you talk too much. Therefore, you need to be down-to-earth and understandable. You need to make people understand what the national policy of the imperial court really means.
There can only be one interpretation from the court, and there cannot be any interpretation to ensure the authority of the court.
This is the completely different place between "Da Ming News" and "Donglin News". The more noble you are, the more civilian I am. In this way, it forms a sharp contrast.
The interview with Wu Hong quickly spread.
Many students from poor families felt the same way after reading it.
Isn’t that what it means to study on your own?
There are always countless worries. I have to work hard to study, and I have to work part-time for the landlords. They even don't want to pay me.
What is the purpose of studying? It is to get ahead.
However, these countless annoying things and tedious labor make it almost impossible for them to spare time to study and study well.
How could it be so easy to get ahead?
How can they compare with this group of gentry and students, they are superior, they can recite poems, they can be arty, but they themselves, they saw their own shadow in Wu Hong, and they also felt a familiar feeling that they had never experienced before.
They are all students from poor families, so it really makes me feel sad.
After going to Datong Academy, although teaching takes a lot of time and energy, at least I still have a lot more time to study with peace of mind.
In fact, this is also a kind of experience and a kind of exercise.
Many people from poor families shed tears when they saw this. They felt that this interview was not about Cao Hong, but about themselves.
At the same time, more scholars from poor families began to take the initiative to go to the Government Affairs Office, preparing to go to Datong Academy.
At least, you can have enough to eat at Datong Academy. Thirdly, you can be respected here. This is a spiritual need.
As for Donglin Academy, fuck you.
After Huang Zunsu buried Wei Dazhong, he was suddenly shocked to find that many students from Donglin Academy had lost a lot of their weight. This discovery shocked Huang Zunsu.
In the past, Donglin Academy was not only a place for gentry students, but also students from poor families.
The Donglin Party’s strategy has always been to cast a wide net and catch more fish.
The gentry will train students, and students from poor families should also be given the opportunity to study. What if they succeed in the imperial examination? This small investment will be a big return in the future.
But now...
Huang Zunsu was shocked to find out.
nobody!
For students from poor families, although Donglin Academy also takes care of their poor students, the tuition fee will still be cheaper, but this is still a big expense for the students from poor families.
The most important thing is, what will your parents do when you come? They don’t have enough money, otherwise, they will have to work for their rich classmates, which is barely enough for them.
The most important thing is that I am not mentally satisfied.
You think you are classmates, I'm sorry, in other people's eyes, you are not my classmate at all, you are just a slave of our family, you are just cannon fodder for us to charge into battle.
Just like Zheng Kong, if the poor student is still there, then Zheng Kong is still needed to charge into the battle?
There have always been conflicts between the two sides. However, for a long time, the poor students wanted to stand out and become prosperous. For this grand goal, they endured this temporary humiliation.
But now, Zhang Haogu has given them a better choice.
Education gives you textbooks and allows you to study by yourself. You can borrow books at will and remember to return them. The only thing you need to pay is your own labor.
Isn’t it just about teaching and educating people?
With so many students calling me "teacher" when they see me, that kind of spiritual satisfaction is naturally not something you can get at Donglin Academy.
Although no money is given, the occasional meal includes four dishes, one soup, and enough rice. The court will also give you four-season clothes. The quality is also quite good. It is given once a year, and this year's clothes will not be recycled after they are worn out.
, you can definitely take it back to your parents.
This was also due to the rapid and vigorous development of the textile industry in the Ming Dynasty, which allowed the court to provide so much cotton, silk, and sweaters to provide benefits to teachers.
Otherwise, the imperial court's expenditure is really not a small amount.
Since I can go to the imperial court’s Datong Academy, why should I go to your Donglin Academy?
Let you come and prostitute my labor for free?
I want you to say, bah, despicable after you have used my labor for nothing?
You don’t even consider me a classmate!
Once they figured it out, in an instant, a group of people felt that Donglin Academy was really not worth it. So what if they went there on their own? They were not going to be slaves for these gentry students.
Since I want to be a cow and horse, why don't I go to Datong Academy to work as a cow and horse for the imperial court?
At least, the court gave me a lot of things.
At least, the court still respects me as a scholar, and so many students call me teacher, which is a spiritual enjoyment.
Naturally, as a result, there will be no students from poor families going to Donglin Academy.
Huang Zunsu suddenly became anxious. If this situation continues, how can Donglin Academy embrace all rivers? From now on, if the talents are all cultivated by Datong Academy, then how can they continue to influence the court?
Now, Datong College is free, unless your Donglin College is also free.
Otherwise, the dog won’t go!
Huang Zunsu panicked and had to start discussing with the gentry, as well as Zhishang, Fujian and Huizhou merchants on how to deal with it. Huang Zunsu keenly realized that if there were really no students from poor families coming to Donglin Academy, sooner or later
, the influence of the Donglin Party will become lower and lower.
The reason why the Donglin Party was able to make another comeback in the Chongzhen Dynasty was because their local foundation was not damaged. As long as there was a change of emperor, they could still make a comeback.
But now, Zhang Haogu is digging for the roots of Donglin Academy.
At this point, the Donglin Party is really doomed.
Datong Academy is free, and so is Donglin Academy.
