King Qin was sitting in the living room drinking tea.
Seeing Cheng Wanwan coming, he immediately stood up: "Mrs. Sui's son has gone to participate in the examination. I guess Mrs. Sui of Jiutian has nothing else to do."
Cheng Wanwan asked doubtfully: "Is this what the prince wants?"
"I need to ask Mrs. Sui for advice on something, which will waste time." King Qin reached out and took out a pamphlet from the attendant's hand and handed it over, "Mrs. Sui, take a look at this first."
Cheng Wanwan took the pamphlet, opened it, and said slightly surprised: "The prince also wants to open a school?"
Don't blame her for being surprised. The main thing is that in her impression, this prince lived a life of debauchery and had nothing to do. He finally did something serious. He also went to Huzhou to pick peaches and took all the credit for the Grand Canal... Now that the Queen is opening a girls' school, he is also learning to run a Lao Shizi School. Is he trying to compete with the Queen?
Being looked at by Cheng Wanwan with a strange look, King Qin felt inexplicably embarrassed. He touched his nose and said: "The emperor's sister-in-law's school is to enlighten women from the lower class and enrich the ideological life of women from aristocratic families. My school is similar to the emperor's sister-in-law's. But it’s different, Mrs. Sui, please take a closer look and give me some suggestions after reading it.”
Cheng Wanwan had no choice but to look carefully.
This view really surprised her, because this school was indeed different from the Queen's school.
There are no girls' schools these days, so no matter what content is taught in the Queen's girls' school, it is a new product that is at the forefront of this era.
But there are too many schools for men, all kinds of them, some specializing in teaching knowledge, specializing in martial arts, specializing in teaching vocational skills... in short, everything is available, and the school that King Qin is about to organize has everything here. Among them, another brand-new model has been opened up.
This turned out to be a foreign language school that mainly teaches foreign languages.
There are countless small countries surrounding Daewoo. Their languages are different from those of Daewoo, and communication is extremely limited.
The Honglu Temple in charge of diplomacy only has dozens of officials, who can only handle the most basic foreign exchanges and trade, and cannot go deeper.
"My school only admits students above Juzi." King Qin saw the interest in Cheng Wanwan's eyes, and he immediately gained confidence and started talking, "Juzi is knowledgeable and has a certain amount of knowledge. They know what the country of Dayu has." Affiliated countries, if they understand the historical exchanges between countries, there is no need to teach these basic contents. The registered candidates choose a language system to learn. After completing the study, the imperial court will provide money to send them to the corresponding country. Learn from the country’s strengths and come back to promote it. In this way, our country, Dayu, will become stronger and stronger..."
Cheng Wanwan thought of the school of the last dynasty in her previous life. Someone proposed to "learn from the foreigners and gain skills to conquer the foreigners", which means to go overseas to learn other people's skills, then come back to build the country, make the country strong and then fight against overseas powers...
Although Daewoo is already the most powerful country in the world, it can also use this theory to make itself stronger.
Although the surrounding small countries are backward, they also have relatively advanced knowledge. For example, the glass comes from the Thurso country, and the glasses come from the Banni country. Assab is relatively advanced in medicine. It is said that the Roman country further away has developed concrete. ...In short, every country has its own strengths. If all these strengths are applied to Dayu Country, then this country will definitely create an unprecedented prosperous age...
"The prince's idea is really good." Cheng Wanwan said sincerely, "However, Juzi is already an official, will they be willing to come to the new school?"
The idea is good, but it may not be suitable for this era.
"How dare they disobey my king's order?" King Qin snorted, "Since Mrs. Sui thinks my idea is very good, I will quickly go to the emperor's brother. As long as the emperor's brother supports it, I will immediately find someone to implement it. , strive to start school within a month!”
He picked up the pamphlet and left in a hurry.
Cheng Wanwan held his head and hoped that the foreign school would be successfully launched. After the prince became busy, he would not always come to see her.
King Qin rode directly to the imperial city. When he got to the gate of the imperial city, he dismounted, changed into a sedan chair and went directly to the imperial study.
The emperor was discussing important matters with several ministers in the royal study. When Eunuch Ming came in to report, the emperor asked King Qin to go to the side hall to wait for a while, but King Qin barged in directly.
The emperor's face turned dark: "I broke in before I was summoned. Do you know what the crime is?"
"Brother Emperor, you are the lord of a country, why do you care about this with me?" King Qin looked unconcerned, "Just as a few adults are here, I will talk about a major event I am about to do. Don't be too surprised. "
Several veterans stood by silently. They were not surprised no matter what King Qin did, because King Qin never acted according to common sense.
If this King of Qin hadn't been the biological brother of the emperor's mother, he would have been dragged out and killed with a stick so many times...
"Listen carefully." King Qin cleared his throat, opened the pamphlet and began to speak, "I plan to establish Xiao Qin University Hall to cultivate external talents for our Dayu Dynasty. What is external talents? Please listen to me in detail... "
The people present were more and more shocked as they listened, and several ministers were greatly puzzled.
"Those small countries are only a few steps ahead of our country, Great Universe. Is it too much to make such a big show?"
"So many Juzi are going to school to study the language of a small country. Isn't this a waste of Juzi's literary talent?"
"The number of candidates in the country is limited, and they are all the pillars of our Dayu Dynasty. We cannot waste them on such meaningless things."
"..."
King Qin did not expect that such a good move would be opposed by everyone.
He snorted: "You old stubborns are just too rigid and don't know how to adapt your thinking. Mrs. Sui said that if the school can be opened, it will be a great thing for the country and the people. Once it comes, it can provide a large number of candidates with Another way out is to provide talents for Honglu Temple; secondly, it can bring the surrounding small countries and the Great Universe closer; third, learn the most advanced things from the small countries to help our Great Universe prosper, enough to make our Great Universe stronger. On top of the world, let's see who dares to invade..."
Taifu Lin was surprised and asked: "Mrs. Sui agrees with the prince's idea?"
King Qin nodded: "I will work with Mrs. Sui to finalize the specific follow-up matters. What does the emperor think?"
"Since Mrs. Sui also thinks it's good, you can give it a try." The emperor said, "However, your school's requirements for students are too high. I suggest changing it to scholar, otherwise it will be suspected of competing with the imperial court for talents. "
Those who were promoted to the imperial court could become officials. There were so many county magistrates in the country, two-thirds of them had the status of being promoted to the imperial court. If Lao Liu was snatched away as a student, it would be a big loss for the Dayu Dynasty.
Scholars are different. As the saying goes, "poor scholars" and "down-and-out scholars", you can imagine how worthless scholars are.
Recruiting scholars as students can provide a new way out for these desperate scholars, which can also be regarded as benefiting the people and the Daewoo Dynasty.
"Brother, it's not interesting to say that." King Qin relied on his status and spoke without any scruples, "If there are candidates who are willing to enter my Xiao Qin University, do they have to be kicked out?"
emperor:"……"
Based on Lao Liu's reputation in the capital, he didn't think anyone would be willing to send him to his door.
