An old friend brought chicken and millet and invited me to Tian's house. Tree edge of the village together, Aoyama Guo oblique. Open a pavilion and a garden, talk about mulberry and hemp over wine. When the Double Ninth Festival comes, there will be chrysanthemums. "
"Ping Guogong, is this a poem written by you?" Several children heard Tang Ping lying on a recliner in front of the convenience store reciting a poem, and they all came around and asked curiously.
"No, it was written by a poet named Meng Haoran, but he was not born yet." Tang Ping said with a smile.
"Ping Guo Gong is lying again. He was not even born. How do you know the poems he wrote?" Several children expressed disbelief.
"Hey, have you forgotten? I am a descendant of an immortal. Even before he was born, I can know this poem he wrote." Tang Ping rummaged through the drawer of the coffee table next to the recliner and took out a few lollipops.
"Compete. Whoever recites it first will get the candy!"
Seeing the lollipop in Tang Ping's hand, a group of little guys got excited and asked Tang Ping to recite the poem just now.
Tang Ping laughed and memorized it twice more. In the end, each child got a lollipop. Those who memorized two lollipops, and those who didn't memorized only one lollipop as a consolation prize.
"It's still a comfortable life like this!" After sending away the children in the village, Tang Ping flattened the recliner and lay down flat. He then covered his face with a cattail leaf fan and planned to squint for a while.
Modern affairs have been settled, and he has finally returned to the life of his dreams.
But not long after he fell asleep, Li Chengqian came.
Li Shimin has put a lot of things in his hands over the years, and he has become more and more calm in his work.
When he came to Tang Ping, he bowed respectfully and shouted: "Cousin, good morning!"
Tang Ping pulled down the cattail leaf fan covering his face and said angrily: "You know it's morning, but you still come to disturb people's dreams."
Li Chengqian smiled slightly and said, "It's because there are some things I want to tell my cousin."
Tang Ping patted the lounge chair next to him with a cattail leaf fan and said, "Sit down and talk."
Li Chengqian sat on the recliner and felt like his whole body was sinking in: "Cousin, the things here are really comfortable."
"If you feel comfortable, ask the craftsmen in the house to learn it yourself." Tang Ping has never been stingy with these things.
"It still doesn't work. Father said that if people are too comfortable, they will lose their enterprising spirit."
"Hey, are you targeting me?" Tang Ping said with some dissatisfaction.
"Haha, my father is talking about the standards for being an emperor. Who in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty doesn't know that my cousin's wish is to eat and die!"
"Okay, okay, you are starting to sound more and more like your second uncle when you talk and act. What's the matter with you today?"
Li Chengqian said with a smile: "There are already two large ships carrying some craftsmen to Fuso. After arriving at the field, they only need to build the mines and train the local workers in Fuso before they can come back."
Tang Ping asked strangely: "What does this matter have to do with me? They can just go there. When they get there, there will naturally be people left to receive them."
You must know that at that time, there were 10,000 "caravan members" stationed there in each of the two mines.
"NoThat's the thing, but it has something to do with it." Li Chengqian asked with some flattery: "The main reason is that my father plans to control some of the management of the Ministry of Industry The work was left to me, but I found that our Datang City is developing too fast now, and there is a shortage of craftsmen everywhere!"
"But if a master takes an apprentice, it will take two to three years or more just to test one's character and make groceries. Therefore, there are many people who learn craftsmanship first, but those who can learn it will contribute to the construction of the Tang Dynasty. Less!"
Tang Ping understood clearly, it meant that there were not enough craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty.
Li Chengqian continued: "In addition, the Tang Dynasty has encouraged childbirth in recent years, and we have the high-yield grain, agricultural tools and some agricultural knowledge you brought. In the past, a family might need four or five laborers to finish planting the land at home. Now only two or three are enough, and the output is several times higher.”
"So the extra labor force in this family must find some work to do, right?"
"Then open more schools." Tang Ping took the teacup next to him and took a sip.
"School? Let them study? This..."
"I'm not talking about reading the books you used to take the imperial examination. I'm talking about setting up a vocational school and dividing it into several majors. There are courses that teach masonry, blacksmiths, carpentry, knitting, and even cooking. ."
"You don't need to be very proficient in these crafts. You just need to be able to go out and work. A teacher can take about twenty or thirty students and start teaching in half a year."
As he spoke, Tang Ping pointed to a villager from Shanghe Village walking past: "Look
Are you there yet? Aunt Qiuxiang, our top weaver in Shanghe Village, if you invite her to train weavers, she will be able to teach thirty weavers with half her skills in half a year. "
Li Chengqian asked in confusion: "But...is she willing to teach?"
Nowadays, if you teach an apprentice, the probation period can last two or three years. How is it possible for these people to teach thirty apprentices at once?
"There is a saying that money can make people go around." Tang Ping said: "Those who come to vocational schools need to pay some tuition fees. Now that people in the Tang Dynasty have money, they are also willing to come out and let their children learn a subject. ability."
"Then your court will subsidize a little more and give these masters a higher salary, isn't it? Aunt Qiuxiang can now earn 12,300 Tang coins a month. If you give a student 3,000 for half a year's tuition, it will be spread out It’s only five hundred a month, most families can afford it, how much is thirty apprentices?”
"Ninety thousand!" Li Chengqian said clearly: "So our court will provide her with another part to make up for it to twenty thousand a month. She can only make money by teaching comfortably in the classroom instead of working hard in the workshop. There are more than before.”
"And these students have been taught one after another. She is not afraid that the master will starve to death after teaching the apprentices. If her apprentices make more in the future, they will be more willing to sign up for her class."
"Also, craftsmen with different skills can open different levels of classes!" Li Chengqian became more and more excited as he talked: "Those with poor skills can teach basic classes, and the tuition will be cheaper. Those with good skills can teach advanced classes, and the tuition will naturally be more expensive. ."
"After completing the junior class, they can make money on their own. If they want to earn more, they can use the money they earn to go to the advanced class for training."
"Cousin, I understand everything!" Li Chengqian jumped up from the recliner excitedly.
Tang Ping looked at him and nodded with satisfaction. Although he came to ask for advice, he could quickly draw inferences from one example instead of just waiting for him to give him advice. He already had the potential of an excellent emperor. .
"Well, you can make a detailed procedure for the recruitment of professional teachers. Once you have calculated how much salary each level of teachers will receive, how much tuition they will charge, and what benefits they will receive, you can start recruiting people." Tang Ping added for him. :
"It would be best to build more dormitories to make it more convenient for students and teachers to go to school, and make learning more efficient and easier to manage."
