After the sacrifice, Liu Bei took Li You to conduct troop training under the same situation as before, while Chen Xi took a group of civilian officials to deal with the trouble left behind this time.
But when Chen Xi returned to the Government Affairs Office, he saw that Cookie, who should have been squatting in the greenhouse to research and grow, was sitting in the Government Affairs Office drinking tea.
"Hey, Han Mou, why are you here?" Chen Xi greeted with a smile. Behind him, a group of civil servants dressed in black all greeted Cookie. Everyone had met this strange man who could make Qingzhou so productive.
"You are too hasty." Cookie said with a wry smile.
"Huh?" Chen Xi didn't hear clearly. He sat on the main seat and faced the back to ask for tea, pastries and preserved fruits. They were about to work.
"I said you were too hasty and Liu Shijun announced it too early. Universal education can win the hearts of the people and be praised by geniuses all over the world, but have you overlooked one point? Recognizing your benevolence and righteousness does not mean that you will not
There is a conflict with you. Although Qingzhou is strong, it is not that strong yet." Cookie said with a wry smile, "You are destroying the foundation of the family."
"How do you say this?" Chen Xi pinched his eyebrows and said helplessly, "Even if some people notice it, they will not be able to stop it in a short time. Moreover, the popularization of paper printing will be beneficial to all aristocratic families.
Only a few people have really noticed. Our biggest advantage is that paper is cheap and popular. By the time they notice, students at the bottom should be able to compete with them, and the existence of our interests will make them ignore this.
It’s a trivial matter.”
"You are too confident. It is always the top people who can cause you trouble. Those families who cannot see this will not know it even if they are sold by you. It is true that the popularization of paper is good for the family, but too cheap is not good for the family.
People at the bottom have more benefits!" Cookie said with a frown.
"But ninety-nine percent of the aristocratic families in this world can only see benefits." Chen Xi said indifferently, "Even if most aristocratic families knew about it, they would believe that their bloodline is superior to the bottom, and would not go for a plan that may fail at any time.
Kill the possibility of yourself going further!"
"How to solve the problem of teachers and annual investment? Don't think I haven't thought about this problem. There are at least 200,000 school-age children in Taishan, Qingzhou, and each teacher will take care of five students for three years." Qiao Qiao looked at Chen Xi and said,
"By the way, your Thousand-Character Essay is pretty good." Cookie praised Chen Xi as if he had thought of something, and then continued to stare at Chen Xi.
This time, everyone including Jia Xu and others looked at Chen Xi. After all, Chen Xi said that it would be solved naturally when he said it.
"There is no good way to live by the sea. As for the 40,000 to 50,000 students, they don't need to be fully versed in poetry, calligraphy, etiquette, music, spring and autumn, as you mentioned. I said they are only providing the most basic education." Chen Xi said calmly, "
Next year we will be able to completely control Qingzhou and expand our influence to the seaside. Then we can start maritime trade and trade with Jiaozhou, as the natives there will not be short of food."
Cookie frowned. He had been to the place in Jiaozhou, and there was indeed no shortage of food, but it was not a place where people lived. The miasma was too great, but for maritime trade, there was too much uncertainty.
"Probably Gan Xingba has already been to Yizhou. If nothing happens, it won't be a big problem if we use it as a transit point." Chen Xi said with a smile, "I asked Gan Ning to determine the location of an overseas state very early.
.”
"With the teachers, money and food, we can barely make it through. Let me ask you the most important point now." Cookie looked at Chen Xi and said solemnly.
"Say it, I'm listening." Chen Xi said casually.
"What does aristocratic family mean to you?" Cookie said.
"A kind of high-ranking family that continues the era with blood as the foundation and power, influence, fame, and financial resources as the center." Chen Xi said with some uncertainty, "But after the decline of the aristocratic family, it seems that the rise is easier than that of ordinary families.
"
"What is a noble?" Cookie asked again.
"It's higher than the upper class of other classes." Chen Xi said casually, and then looked at Cookie for a moment, and then everyone present frowned, and the authorities were confused, but they all ignored it.
"It seems that you have noticed that the aristocratic family evolved from the nobility. Their goal is to return to the aristocratic class, share the world with the emperor, and split the land and divide the borders." After saying this, he paused and glanced at everyone present.
"Do you think the top aristocratic families, those families that have retained the glory of the nobility for almost generations, will allow the lower class people to enjoy the same opportunities as them? No, they are destined to sit in the highest position and look down from generation to generation.
To protect the people of the lower classes." Cookie looked at Chen Xi and others with a smile.
"Thunder, rain, and dew are all for your kindness. This gentleman..." Chen Xi murmured to himself!
Until this moment, Chen Xi finally understood why nobles evolved into aristocratic families, why aristocratic families evolved into noble families, and why there was a ninth-grade Zhongzheng. Everything was doomed long ago!
Rank is too important for nobles. Gentlemen are just another form of nobles. Your status in this life is destined to be yours when you are born. There is no poor family in the upper class, and there is no noble family in the lower class!
"Well, we will not be able to enjoy all the glory and wealth from generation to generation. Just like the emperor of Zhou enfeoffed the territories, the nobles will always be nobles. The blessings will continue for hundreds of years for future generations. What Xuande is doing now is to directly cut off the delusion of these aristocratic families.
In comparison, the hatred is really great, and the other party is very attractive!" Chen Xi silently acknowledged Cookie's words.
Chen Xi had to admit that the slogan of the Aristocratic Family was very, very, very attractive to the Aristocratic Family. As for the lower class people, just go to bed. What's the matter with you?
Similarly, Chen Xi recognized Cookie's words more than Cookie's guess, because Cookie's guess really happened in history, and the ninth-grade Zhongzheng completely laid the foundation of the noble clan!
"In other words, we are now completely on the opposite side of all the top aristocratic families?" When Jia Xu felt that he had been foolish for the first time, should he say that there was not a single big noble present who did not have this concept at all?
"That's almost the situation. But the better thing now is that Chen Zichuan is still in your camp. You are so lucky. Chen Zichuan has proven his ability. And I also heard that Cao Mengde sent his advisers to congratulate him. I think it's 90% likely that he will come.
It will be Chen Changwen." Qiao Qiao looked like your life is too good.
"Fortunately, okay, the Chen family is very powerful. Even though I am different, I will still be regarded as the Chen family's front figure. In this way, most of the aristocratic families will pay attention to my every move, as long as I don't mess around.
It means that this matter has not harmed the foundation of the family." Chen Xi secretly wiped his hands with a cold sweat, this matter is really high-stakes today.
"But after this incident, it is estimated that many top advisers of the family will give up on Liu Shijun. Although you are a figure on the stage, you cannot fully represent the Chen family. The threat of Liu Bei's actions still exists, and they will look for ways to restore the old days."
The glorious method." Cookie said helplessly.
"They will recognize Xuande Gong's benevolence, because Xuande Gong has a status that is not inferior to theirs, but they will never allow anyone to step on them and rise to the top of the lower class. They can show mercy to the lower class, but they will never give any mercy to the lower class.
The lower level looks down on them." Chen Xi held his head and smiled bitterly.
