"Can you get it? My lord, do you know how much silver this will cost?"
Hearing Zhao Ding's words, Zhang Shiwei was suddenly shocked.
He looked at Zhao Ding in disbelief.
There are three thousand supervisors in the Imperial College, which is enough to run the school for a year. In addition to the food, drinks and handymen for the supervisors, as well as the salary of the teachers, the total amount is one hundred thousand taels of silver.
And if the recruitment is expanded to 9,000 people, the money will at least triple.
That's three hundred thousand taels.
Three hundred thousand taels a year, and nine hundred thousand taels in three years.
Not to mention that Zhao Ding also said that the first three years would be free, and the next three years would be supplemented by work-study to supplement his tuition.
If you calculate it this way.
This means that three hundred thousand taels of silver must be allocated to the Imperial College every year.
Not to mention that this matter will involve the interests of those noble families who are obstructed in every possible way, even if it does not involve the interests of the noble families, Daqian will never want to spend an additional two hundred thousand taels in financial allocations based on the current state of the treasury.
After all, the annual salary of a second-rank official in the dynasty was only about 700 taels.
This two hundred thousand taels is a lot of money.
"I know."
Zhao Ding waved his hand very calmly, "I will take care of the money matter. You don't need to worry about it. However, the newly opened subjects and the teachers they need need to be paid more attention to.
My requirements are that people from clean family backgrounds, non-gentlemen, must have real talents and practical knowledge, and have a good temperament, not the kind of people who like to specialize, and must have certain achievements in the industry they are good at, otherwise I would rather put those people Position vacant. "
Zhao Ding ordered calmly.
Zhao will take care of the money matter, so there is no need to worry about it.
What he wants is to train some talents as soon as possible.
Especially those from poor families and common people who have been suppressed.
Once they are trained and enter the Daqian court, these people will become Zhao Ding's most solid wings and supporters.
By then, the entire Daqian situation will slowly change.
"Since the prince is confident, I will not ask any more questions about the candidates. As for the candidates, the prince can rest assured. Although I have been teaching in the Imperial College these years, I still have connections. I will find the talents that the prince needs. I will find them all for you, Prince, within a month.
As for character matters, I can vouch for it and it is absolutely reliable. If anything goes wrong, I am willing to resign myself to apologize. "
After listening to Zhao Ding's words, Zhang Shiwei stopped worrying and directly patted his chest and promised.
As the third-generation imperial master of Daqian, he still has some connections like Zhang Shiwei.
"In this case, I, the king, can rest assured."
He didn't understand others, but Zhao Ding still understood Zhang Shiwei.
Since Zhang Shiwei dared to say this, Zhao Ding was naturally relieved.
Next is a detailed teaching plan.
Zhao Ding's idea is very simple, that is, the first three years are spent learning professional knowledge, and after three years, he will directly work part-time, half of the time is spent learning professional knowledge, and half of the time is spent on internships.
During this process, credit points are used for assessment, and those who fail to meet the standards will be directly expelled.
He will not raise idle people.
If you are too lazy to eat, just get out!
No matter what his origins are, it won’t work even if the King of Heaven comes!
…
As Zhao decides on specific measures one by one.
There was an uproar all over Yingtian.
All of a sudden, there were noisy discussions inside and outside the court about what Zhao Ding had done.
An envelope of memorials flew towards Zhao Chongyuan's desk like snowflakes.
Just as Zhao Ding and Zhang Shiwei expected.
They all used the excuse that the cost of running a school was very high, the imperial treasury was empty, the finances were difficult, and it was not appropriate to spend extravagantly. Some even directly pointed out that Zhao Ding's move was shaking the foundation of the cadres.
Since ancient times, the royal family of Daqian and the nobles have shared the world. How come the royal family and the common people share the world.
Of course this person is a minor official.
Then...
Then.....
Then, there was a headless body outside the Meridian Gate.
For a time, the whole Daqian court was in turmoil. There was no more incident of Leng Touqing, but there were many memorials to impeach Zhao Ding.
This time the excuse was brought out by the order of Taizu of Daqian, because Taizu of Daqian once said: Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce.
The excuse for choosing this as the point of attack is extremely simple. It is because of the textile subjects that Zhao Ding set up in the Imperial College.
If it is opened in the Imperial College, it will tarnish the name of the Imperial College.
It can be said that the reasons and angles for impeachment are all kinds of strange.
For a moment, looking at these memorials sent by Zhao Chongyuan, Zhao Ding felt like he was being bullied online.
"How does it feel?"
In the study room, Zhao Chongyuan casually threw another memorial and handed it to Zhao Ding, and asked with a smile.
"good."
Zhao Ding said nonchalantly.
It affects other people's interests.
That shot hit the first bird, and Zhao Ding naturally became a thorn in others' side.
But the only thing that made Zhao Ding a little regretful was that among these memorials, he did not see the memorials that Zhou Shan opposed, but instead saw one that Zhou Shan wrote in favor of.
For a moment, Zhao Ding had to curse the old fox.
In addition to Zhou Shan, Ye Liancheng, the deputy minister of the cabinet, also wrote in favor.
However, Yang Fu, the old cunning man, did not submit a letter.
It seemed as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
"Some people, we can't see what they say, we have to see what they do. Look at these memorials to impeach you, they seem to come from all kinds of strange places.
The imperial court has six ministries, three divisions, and two courts.
But if you take a closer look, you will find an interesting thing. "
Zhao Chongyuan picked up the already cold tea on the table and took a sip while looking at Zhao Ding with a smile and said.
"What's interesting?"
Zhao Ding frowned slightly and looked at Zhao Chongyuan with some confusion.
"Look."
Zhao Chongyuan grinned, and then moved all the memorials that were almost piled up in front of him in front of Zhao Ding, and then directly in front of Zhao Ding, he ordered the six departments and three divisions of the imperial court, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Yushitai, and the Fifth Army. The Dudu Mansion was separated bit by bit.
And after watching Zhao Chongyuan separate these memorials bit by bit.
Zhao Ding's brows gradually raised.
Among all the memorials, those from the Yushitai were the most numerous. This was what Zhao Ding had expected. After all, the Yushitai was full of general admonishers, spraying the heavens and the earth, and would bump your head into the Golden Palace at every turn.
Therefore, whenever there is a reform in the imperial court, the people at Yushitai are the first to rush forward.
Therefore, Zhao Ding naturally had the most memorials to impeach him.
Next were the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry, but Zhou Shan and Ye Liancheng were in charge of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Household Affairs.
This is a bit interesting.
At the same time among these memorials.
Zhao Dingran also saw several memorials to his elders from the royal family. Several of them were of the same generation as his father, Zhao Chongyuan, and two of them were even older than Zhao Chongyuan.
This is even more interesting.
"So, do you understand?"
After dividing these memorials, Zhao Chongyuan looked at Zhao Dingdao with a smile.
"I seem to understand."
Zhao Ding also grinned.
This is because there are bad people among the people.
