Chapter 105 Liaodong Education
Today's thoughts are just buried deep in He Xi's heart. He didn't tell anyone at all, and he didn't discuss it with Yao Guangxiao.
It has nothing to do with trust or not.
It's just not necessary.
Although He Xi is convinced that the path he wants to take is also the path that must be taken if he wants to change the world. He has no shirking responsibility and it is no other path than mine. But he knew one thing more, that is, his idea must be contrary to Zhu Yuanzhang's idea.
No matter how you say it, Zhu Yuanzhang is also an ancient man.
He certainly understands and explains some modern ideas. But the most fundamental foundation was created in this era. Family, the world, is Zhu Yuanzhang's bottom line that goes without saying. What he wants is a better Ming Dynasty. Rather than a better China.
Because the Ming Dynasty belongs to the Zhu family.
This shows that in the future, he must complete the layout under Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes. Only then can we seize the opportunity after Zhu Yuanzhang's death. This is quite exciting. He Xi knew very well what kind of person Zhu Yuanzhang was. He also understood how many people Zhu Yuanzhang had placed around him.
So, be patient, be patient, be patient, and don’t act rashly.
Follow the route drawn by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Don't go out of your way.
Although He Xi knew his special nature, Zhu Yuanzhang would not kill him unless it was absolutely necessary. But it's also uncertain. Because who was Zhu Yuanzhang? In history, he killed many generals and ministers, which one was not of great importance. I don't think he will be killed easily.
However, He Xi decided to make some preparations.
The foreshadowing is education and thought.
Only when new ideas defeat old ideas can the world find a new way out.
Previously, Liaodong's family background was weak. He Xi's one dollar should be treated as two dollars. There is no working capital at all. Now, Liaodong can be considered to have some wealth. He Xi decided to promote education in a big way.
He first established 28 primary schools in Liaodong. Naturally, it is the Seventeenth Health Office in Liaodong, plus more than a dozen places such as Shenyang, Yingkou, Lushun, and Changchun. A primary school was established in each school to recruit school-age children.
Of course, that's not all.
Those who can go to elementary school must have at least one parent who is an officer or civil servant, and they are on public payroll. There are more than 20 schools with a total of no more than 2,000 students.
On the one hand, Liaodong has a small population. Today there are less than three million. There are quite a few children. But it is difficult for children from ordinary families to have the opportunity to study. Moreover, it is difficult for Liaodong to afford more people studying off-duty.
This was decided by Liaodong's finances.
No matter how He Xi made up his mind, it was impossible to achieve it. After all, money is not something that can only be obtained if one makes up his mind.
As for the textbooks and books for primary school students, He Xi has compiled them all in Nanjing. They just need to be rewritten and sorted out.
Immediately afterwards, Shenyang Polytechnic School was established. Compared with Taiping Institute of Technology, Shenyang Institute of Technology, on the basis of inheriting mining and smelting from the former, also has more subjects such as mechanics. Immediately afterwards, the Lushun Maritime School was established.
And Lushun Maritime School is building ships. There are subjects for navigation and even naval warfare.
Finally, there is Yingkou University Hall.
This school corresponds to the Imperial College. He Xi even asked Yang Shiqi to put down his work and take charge of this place.
Compared to the first two schools. What Yingkou University has to face is even more important. Without him, when He Xi was in Nanjing, in order to avoid the fight, many things were actually very vague. I dare not say it clearly. But in Liaodong, He Xi's world belongs to He Xi, and no one here can stop him.
In addition, the high ground of governance theory is the commanding heights of all academics in China. This is determined by China’s historical heritage over the years.
This was something He Xi could not avoid.
Don't take it here. Many things are done with half the effort. This is where he will attack sooner or later.
If we say, Shenyang Polytechnic School and Lushun Maritime School have avoided this battle and only devoted themselves to the technical aspects.
The Yingkou University Hall is different.
Although Yingkou University has physics, mathematics, and other subjects. But mostly liberal arts. For example, history, classics and meaning. Various schools of thought and so on. All students admitted are transfer students. Or future officials.
It is the base camp of the future.
When He Xi has time, he will go to Yingkou School to give lectures.
Of course, he will not directly talk about democracy or revolution. However, there are many things that don’t need to be talked about deliberately. Everything in the world is interconnected. The same is true for learning. It is very difficult for ordinary people to deduce unknown, or prerequisite knowledge from the known.
Or never thought of it that way at all.
But for really smart people. No need to explain it thoroughly at all.
For example, He Xi talks about history with a materialist view of history. Even though He Xi deliberately downplays some sharp things, some people can still see what is behind He Xi's remarks. The denial of destiny, the questioning of the emperor's sanctity, etc.
It has to be said that Zhu Yuanzhang was poorly educated.
Have not received systematic academic training. He did not really, quietly, concentrate on studying for a few years, so that in history, his promotion of Neo-Confucianism was actually secretly arranged. Now that he supports He Xi, he doesn't understand some of He Xi's intentions.
He Xi even made a decision to let Zhu Xiongying attend classes at Yingkou University.
Although He Xi had made the decision to gain the highest power in the Ming Dynasty, he also needed an emperor. In He Xi's view, Zhu Xiongying was the most suitable. It seems that the situation is the same as before, except that He Xi supported Zhu Xiongying to ascend the throne. In fact, it is completely different.
Because the priorities are different.
For Zhu Xiongying, He Xi's feelings are also very complicated.
He always felt that he would fall out with Zhu Xiongying in the future. Because no matter who ascends the throne of the emperor, how can he be willing to be a virtual king? At the same time, the child Zhu Xiongying was also very close to him. If trouble breaks out in the future, He Xi doesn't know how to deal with it.
After much deliberation, He Xi decided to let him study and take classes. I hope he can become the successor of his own mantle, rather than an emperor. Hopefully, he can really understand that times have changed. Dictatorship simply doesn't work. The model of one person governing the world is unsustainable.
Zhu Xiongying was very dissatisfied with this matter. But He Xi couldn't be defeated. However, he has learned a lot after all. Moreover, when Yingkou University Hall was first established, there was a shortage of manpower. Therefore, Zhu Xiongying used to be both a student and a teacher in certain classes.
The entire atmosphere of Yingkou University Hall is much more relaxed than that of any other school in this era. And Zhu Xiongying slowly adapted to such a relaxed atmosphere.
It's just that Zhu Xiongying didn't see He Xi's intention, nor did he know what was behind his learning of this thing.
However, just as He Xi said, there are people who can understand what is behind He Xi.
This person is none other than Liu Jing.
After all, Huang Zicheng and others are young, have not experienced ups and downs, and have not penetrated into the core of the imperial struggle. Therefore, I didn’t think so much about many things. Just use He Xi’s ideological system. But Liu Jing is different.
Liu Jing is the son of Liu Ji and has a rich family background. As a son who stayed by his father's side, he experienced the ups and downs at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and even watched his father die a tragic death. After living in seclusion at home for so many years, don’t you have any thoughts in your heart?
Nothing confusing?
Of course, Liu Jing still didn't know much about He Xi's system, and she was just trying to get a glimpse of what was behind He Xi's system. However, he had already heard a lot from He Xi's few words.
A fierce thought sprouted in his heart: "The emperor should not have existed."
This made Liu Jing suddenly close her eyes, and a crystal teardrop fell from the corner of her eye.
This may be the common tears of many humanities officials and officials in this era.
This does not mean that the people Zhu Yuanzhang killed should not be killed. However, among Zhu Yuanzhang's brutal killings since the founding of the country, it is impossible that there was no manslaughter. This precarious situation brought great psychological shadow to these people, which was also reflected in countless articles criticizing Zhu Yuanzhang many years later.
Liu Jing's pain is felt by many people.
Restricting imperial power was actually a long-standing effort of the Ming Dynasty’s literati. The most different thing between the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty was that the late Ming Dynasty’s system was much different from the imperial dictatorship. The Qing Dynasty only strengthened the trend of dictatorship.
hinder the development of too many things.
This is the greatest evil of the Qing Dynasty.
