"It's very simple, universal compulsory education!"
His Majesty Li Er was puzzled: "What is compulsory education?"
Fang Jun said: "Since it is free education, the royal family will bear the education expenses."
His Majesty Li Er asked: "What is the scale?"
Fang Jun's eyes were bright: "Your Majesty has issued an imperial edict that all school-age children in the country must receive compulsory education for a certain number of years, and the royal family must bear the cost and the family must support it!"
"hiss……"
His Majesty Li Er took a breath of cold air and said dumbfounded: "You bastard, how dare you think about how much this will cost? You can't get so much money even if you sell my Tai Chi Palace! It's just nonsense!"
He didn't say that Fang Jun's whimsical approach would not work, but that he had no money.
Not only can the royal family not be able to spend so much money, but even the imperial finance cannot afford the cost of education for all the people. It will be an astronomical figure, and it will never end, generation after generation!
But Fang Jun could see that fundamentally His Majesty Li Er agreed with this matter, but it was just too difficult and was equivalent to laying tiles on the Great Wall...
Because His Majesty Li Er can see what kind of benefits this will bring to the royal family if it can be implemented seriously.
The reputation of the Li Tang royal family will be unparalleled for generations to come and truly be a blessing to the world!
In the future, all scholars will receive free education provided by the royal family in order to be able to read, read, and understand the subtleties and great meanings. How dare you turn around and rebel against the royal family?
The Li Tang royal family will gain unprecedented support. Whoever rebels against the Li family will be the enemy of scholars all over the world!
But the question remains – how much does it cost to do this?
Fang Jun was full of confidence: "Your Majesty has no money, and even the national finance cannot come up with this money, but... Dong Datang Company has it!"
"Dong Datang Company?"
His Majesty Li Er seemed to have just remembered that he once had such a company that held most of the shares, but...how could this company be so rich? He had no idea!
Fang Jun clenched his fists: "The current Dong Datang Company is still very weak, but with the support of the Royal Navy, it will definitely become a giant that surpasses all the companies in the world!"
His Majesty Li Er asked doubtfully: "How much money does this company have now?"
Fang Jun simply said: "I don't have any money now."
"..."
His Majesty Li Er's eyes widened, "Are you kidding me?"
Fang Jun's eyes exuded a kind of enthusiasm: "Not now, but we can start trade immediately, sell silk, sell tea, sell porcelain, sell thunder, and even rob it! In short, we will definitely earn enough
The profits will support Your Majesty to complete free education for all citizens! Your Majesty, as long as free education is implemented, it will not take twenty years, and all the scholars in the world will be your disciples.
Everything is yesterday’s flower, and everything will become dust in history!”
His Majesty Li Er said angrily: "Fart! I can't see the benefits of this free education? It's just that you, a bastard, want to go out and wreak havoc in the world through a business to support free education with the money you earn. Thousands of years later, history books
How would you judge me?"
Doesn't this ruin my reputation?
He naturally understands Fang Jun's thinking. This Dong Datang company is a wild beast that has been unleashed. It will do whatever it wants in other countries to seize huge wealth to support domestic development. But wouldn't such ill-gotten wealth destroy his Li Er?
His Majesty's reputation is on the pillar of shame?
Fang Jun vowed: "History? History will say that you are the true emperor of the ages who surpassed the First Emperor! Our descendants will inherit your grace from generation to generation, and all Chinese people will be bathed in your mighty grace. Among them!"
"What?"
His Majesty Li Er thought Fang Jun was stupid: "Will anyone say good things about me?"
Fang Jun said matter-of-factly: "Of course! What is history? History is about success and failure, and heroes are judged only by success or failure! When everyone in the world is enjoying the benefits you have brought, who will say that you are not?"
How much opium did the East India Company dump into Asia?
How much wealth did Queen Elizabeth allow pirates to plunder?
How did people in later generations evaluate her?
Not only are our own people grateful, but other countries also lament this method of wealth accumulation!
All capital accumulation processes are a bloody story of exploitation, and this is not the case at all times and in all countries!
His Majesty Li Er shook his head and said: "Do you really think that I don't know what you are thinking? It is foreseeable that if I really agree to this matter, you will lead this company to plunder the world's wealth for the rise of the Tang Dynasty. But in this case, doesn’t it become ‘robbery under orders’?”
He was a little hesitant and a little moved.
In his heart, His Majesty Li Er is not a moral gentleman at all, otherwise he would not be able to do the Xuanwumen Incident, let alone take all his brothers’ wives into the harem to enjoy such a dirty thing...
After waving his hand, His Majesty Li Er said: "This matter needs long-term consideration. What's going on with the military system?"
Fang Jun knew that His Majesty Li Er was already moved, but he did not strike while the iron was hot and could only wait until he had passed this hurdle.
"Now that the Tang Dynasty is becoming more and more prosperous, the people are becoming more and more stable, and people's livelihood must be raised to a level of rapid development. However, the military system of the government will show its shortcomings at this time. When you should be farming, you will have to serve in the army. This will It will greatly affect agricultural production. At this stage, we can consider the recruitment system and the government army system through public recruitment, and gradually cancel the government army system from the recruitment system."
The professional military is the future direction.
It is undeniable that at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the government army system greatly reduced the burden on the country because of its unique system. However, as society gradually stabilizes and the economy becomes increasingly prosperous, the government army system has become a factor that hinders the development of productivity.
When Fang Jun said this, His Majesty Li Er immediately understood the reason.
I became more and more surprised: Everyone in the world knew that Fang Jun was talented, but how could he know the country's policies and systems so well, as if he could read grain patterns on the palm of his hand? What's even more rare is that these points he raised seemed to be nonsense, but in detail After thinking about it carefully, I found that it is indeed feasible!
Could it be that he is really a natural-born talent?
At this time, His Majesty Li Er was also a little jealous of Fang Xuanling.
"Having a child should be like leaving a wife behind"...
"The points you mentioned are all of great importance. No matter whether they are successful or not, you cannot rush them. In this way, you can write a memorial in your spare time and submit it to me in secret, so that I can consider it carefully."
What are you considering? In fact, it’s just what you said, but I don’t understand it at all...
This is where the art of language lies.
Fang Jun blinked his eyes and said with a shy face: "Well...Weichen is free every day now."
His Majesty Li Er burst out laughing when he saw Fang Jun's cute expression begging for mercy.
I’ve never seen someone be so blatant in asking for control, can you still be a little reserved and save face?
As soon as he was in a good mood, he said in an official tone: "Are you very free? That's just right. Si Zi always refuses to eat well these days, and she makes noises from time to time to listen to your stories. How can I dare to send her to Jiangnan? Since you are back and have nothing to do, you are responsible for coaxing Sizi and making her eat well every day."
Fang Jun's eyes widened: "Weichen didn't mean that, it's just..."
His Majesty Li Er also glared: "Why are you so wronged by coaxing Si Zi for me? Or are you simply not willing to look at my daughter?"
Fang Jun felt really aggrieved: "No...I didn't mean that. I just wanted to say...Has your Majesty thought about what you want me to do in the future?"
"What are you doing? You want to be beautiful! Do you know how much I have worried about you and how much I have scolded you for everything you have done in Jiangnan? Just stay with me honestly. If you are coaxed, Now that I'm happy, I might arrange a leisurely errand for you."
Mother!
Are you treating us as a nanny?
The old gangster pretended to be confused and didn't talk about his future arrangements. Isn't this just teasing? Fang Jun felt annoyed.
It’s not that I want to do anything, but I always feel uneasy when I hang around like this. Besides, if you don’t arrange a good position for me, how can I charge into the battle for you to fight against those noble families?
I made up my mind, aren't you teasing me?
Okay, if your position is not high enough, my brother will retire and return home, coaxing your daughters every day, coaxing all your unmarried daughters to bed and causing trouble...
By the way, I won’t let go of the one who got married and then divorced!
