Chapter 58 Political Academy
[Recite the URL three times silently. Do you remember it? If not, I will ask again in the next chapter. It would be best if you share it on Facebook for me]
The next morning, the sun was high in the sky but no one came to urge him. Everyone knew that the adults had drunk a lot of wine last night and did not dare to disturb them, so Qin Hao had a good sleep.
However, he also knew that he had things to do today and could not be careless, so he had lunch early and called Zhuge Xuan to inspect the territory together.
The first stop was the political school in Redwood Village. Before leaving last time, Zhuge Xuan drafted the charter and applied to Qin Hao for such a place to build a school.
However, this is not for the children of various villages to study. Now the territory is still very difficult and cannot manage them at present. This is used to train some political personnel first.
What is the most important thing in the 21st century - talent, this sentence is also applicable in the 17th century.
With the continuous growth of the number of households, the task of dividing land and migrating is also increasing, which is not something that Zhuge Xuan and Li Guo can handle easily.
Today Tang San lost a rabbit, tomorrow Xiao Wu was bitten by a snake, and there were so many trivial matters that someone needed to deal with them, so the Political School came into being.
"Who will be in charge of this Political School?" Qin Hao asked casually while riding his horse.
He knew that Zhuge Xuan had been very busy recently and had no time to teach. Li Guo had also been working under Zhuge Xuan. He said that he had some free time, but with his level, there was probably no hope. Zhuge Xuan would not be stupid enough to let him go.
"I am just temporarily managing the position. Except for the day when the Political School was built, I went there and never went there again. But I did write down some basic political affairs points and troubled others to teach them."
"Oh, if there really was such a person, you would have complained about everything before." Qin Hao thought of the previous things and teased.
Zhuge Xuan did not comment. It was true before. However, a month ago, Li Chun recommended a person to him, saying that he was a talent, so he called him to test him. He really had some talent, so he hired this person to work as a teacher in the Government Affairs Hall, which was considered to relieve his worries.
However, Zhuge Xuan did not elaborate on the concerns, just waiting for his master to go and see it secretly.
Qin Hao also wanted to see what kind of talent he was. He waved his whip and galloped on the blue brick road, making a series of crisp sounds of horse hooves.
Hongshan Village, Government Academy.
There is a thatched house not far from the village community. It looks a little simple, but the people inside are not simple. They are all talents gathered from various villages and communities.
The young teacher flipped through the thin textbook. After reading it several times, he found that he had finished the basic part, and even he was still a little lacking in the advanced part.
However, time flies, and the one-month time scheduled by Master Zhuge has come in these few days.
Looking at these teaching materials, the teacher secretly felt that Mr. Zhuge was a real talent. If it weren't for the teaching materials and learning plan he designed, no one would be able to complete it in this month.
This is a crash course, the purpose is to cultivate talents as soon as possible, but it is easy to say but difficult to do.
The teacher knows that he spent a lot of effort on learning when he was a child. It is almost impossible to make a person who can't read a single word speak, calculate, and write an article without three or five years.
But Mr. Zhuge proposed these pinyin: a, b, Arabic numerals: 1, 2,.
These are all irrelevant things, but they are immediately different when combined, making the originally obscure knowledge become extremely simple, and making these students from various villages grow so much in just one month, which is simply terrifying.
If it continues to be used, I don't know how many people will benefit from it.
If everyone in the world can read, it is probably a prosperous age that Yao, Shun, and Yu could not achieve.
The benefits are in the present and in the future!
Of course, it is not as magical as the teacher said. Pinyin and numbers did play a big part.
But when the people were selected at the beginning, Zhuge Xuan also participated. He first selected those who could read. There were always 20 to 30 people in the territory with thousands of people. Then he selected young and smart people, formed two classes to study together and compete together, which achieved twice the result with half the effort.
The teacher put down the textbook in his hand, looked at the students in the hall, and said: "Today, you don't need to learn math anymore, nor do you need to write articles or letters. The tasks for the next few days are placed on this piece of paper in front of you.
Write down the population and the number of fields in each village and garrison. Among the population, how many men, women, old and young, how many cattle and horses, what is the expected harvest this year, and what are the plans of each family for next year. This is a practical class. If you can complete 70% or 80%, it means that you are qualified to serve as grassroots officials, and you can arrange it when the general comes back.
As the first batch of students in the Political Affairs Hall, I am pleased for you. From the time the first beam was built in the Political Affairs Hall, you have In the wind and rain, I still came to study every day, which was very difficult.
Many people couldn't bear the hardship and dropped out, which made me feel very sorry. You don't know how lucky you are to be able to study. You will know it when you compare yourself with those who dropped out in a few years. I won't say much now.
The remaining thirteen of you, today I advise you, which is also what Lord Zhuge reminded you: when you are an official, be cautious and not arrogant, don't be greedy, use your mind on civil affairs, be kind to the people, and enjoy the people, so that you can do a good job. Of course, the general will not treat you unfairly. You have all known the rules these days. As long as you are hired, you will have a salary of 10 taels of silver a month. "
Speaking of money, the students in the hall also started to get agitated. Isn't that what they came here for in the first place? Ten taels of silver is not a small sum of money, it is enough for their family to live happily.
As one student said when we arrived: With this money, we can only eat pork every day, three meals a day, and even a family of five or six can't eat half of it.
"Okay, that's all I'm going to say. You guys can preview on your own. If you encounter something you don't understand, come and ask me. I won't be here after today!"
After hearing what the Master said, the students in the hall were indifferent. They knew the identity of the Master and he was a sinner.
"Sir, how about we go and intercede with the General and ask him to let you go?"
"Yes, go and beg for mercy. The general is so kind and will definitely not care."
Seeing the commotion in the audience, the instructor glared at the leaders and angrily said, "Just do your job well, and don't worry about mine."
Although he reprimanded him verbally, he was still moved in his heart. He stopped talking and picked up the book and started reading. He had not yet fully understood the mysteries in the book. He wanted to take advantage of the last few days to take a look at it. He knew that he would not have much chance in the future. .
Qin Hao waited outside the thatched cottage for a long time, listening to what was going on inside without disturbing him. He just nodded from time to time. He was very satisfied with this teacher.
This tutor was none other than Gu Cheng, who killed Gu Qing's younger brother in Gujiazhuang that day. Unexpectedly, he was invited by Zhuge Xuan to teach him.
"This is the person you invited." Qin Hao looked at Zhuge Xuan who was standing beside him and teased.
"Yes, sir, this is a talent."
"I don't know if he is a talent. Don't you know what happened at Zhujiazhuang that day?" Qin Hao raised his voice, his tone obviously questioning.
"I understand that it is precisely because of this that I chose to give him a chance. Talents should not be buried." Zhuge Xuan argued with reason, neither humble nor arrogant.
The conversation between the two also shocked everyone in the room, and they quickly came out to say hello.
Gu Cheng was no exception. As everyone came out together, everyone else said, "Young people have seen adults."
And he is "a sinner who has seen an adult", which shows that he knows that he is a relative of a sinner.
Qin Hao still has fresh memories of Gu Qing, saying that he is a sinner. There is no good or bad in fighting for hegemony. The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy.
He gave Zhuge Xuan a wink and asked him to lead the students away.
After leading everyone away, Qin Hao slowly said, "Gu Cheng, what do you think?"
Thoughts, what thoughts.
Gu Cheng was a little stunned for a moment, not knowing what Qin Hao was talking about.
He was about to ask, but when he raised his head, his eyes met Qin Hao's, and he immediately shrank back, breaking out in a cold sweat.
That condescending cold look really startled him, and he didn't know how to respond.
Qin Hao was also thinking secretly about how to deal with this person.
As Zhuge Xuan said, he is a talent, and you seem to value him at this time, but he has already created a suspicion for killing his brother. If he doesn't handle it well, he may suffer backlash without realizing it.
It’s essential to be on guard against others!
The eye contact just now has allowed Qin Hao to come up with the real answer. It doesn't matter what a person says, because people can lie. It is difficult to judge from words whether what he said is true or not, or he is just saying it to deal with you. .
Only a person's movements, micro-expressions and a series of body language can reflect a person's true thoughts.
Qin Hao didn't see any thoughts of revenge in this man's eyes, and he was still very afraid of himself, which was easy to handle.
In this case, I don't mind having one more subordinate, as long as he is not too close to me.
Knowing that Gu Cheng didn't have that kind of intention, Qin Hao was willing to accept him and give him a chance: "Study hard here and don't let down Zhuge Xuan's expectations of you."
"Thank you, sir." Gu Cheng understood the meaning of these words and thanked him repeatedly. Then he knelt on the ground and cried bitterly: "My father is old and can't stand the hard work of the brick factory. Please have mercy on me."
"Bang!"
As he spoke, he rang his head and blood started flowing out instantly!
"What!?" Qin Hao was also shocked, "Is this happening?"
He really didn't excuse himself for this matter. He really didn't know. He could find out more after asking Zhuge Xuan to ask.
Nowadays, the basic laws and regulations in the territory are implemented in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty. This is also convenient. It suits the background of the times and there is no need to bother to modify anything. The family members of those who committed crimes according to the Ming laws are not to be imprisoned or assigned, and women are assigned to the Jiaofang Division.
Zhuge Xuan looked at the adult holding his mouth and knew that he was not very comfortable with how he handled the matter, so he asked, "Do you want to revise it?"
"No, just let Gu Cheng's relatives go as usual."
Qin Hao thought for a moment and decided to continue to implement such a law. Those who commit treason and rebellion deserve to be punished. Their relatives must also know or benefit, and joint and several liability is essential.
It's cruel but it's reality!
"But the young and old should try their best not to be implicated."
After all, he is educated in the 21st century, so Qin Hao still chooses to be open-minded to young and old.
"promise!"
"Thank you, sir!"
"It doesn't have to be like this. This is what you fought for. Take the oracle and go get the person. Don't kneel here. It's unfortunate for me to do this."
"yes."
Gu Cheng took the handwriting from Zhuge Xuan, thanked the two of them, and then ran to the brick kiln in a hurry, eager to save his father.
"Let's go to the next stop."
Qin Hao stepped onto his horse. He had to inspect all the nearby villages in the past few days, which was no small task.
