Jianghu I am the only one

Chapter 373 The foundation of education for the growth of a strong country

Ouyang Ye heard Li Shuyuan's tone of voice and looked at his demeanor, and knew that the other party was very superstitious about this "scholarship plan", and probably had a long speech waiting for him.

Because of Li Shuyuan's age and his achievements in teaching and educating people, he originally planned to speak softly, but now he changed his mind.

So he directly shook his head and said, "It's not just wrong, it's really wrong."

Hearing what Ouyang Ye said, Li Shuyuan was even more angry, and immediately said: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, what is wrong?"

Ouyang Ye memorized the contents of the booklet after reading it, so he put it on the stone table, looked directly at Li Shuyuan and said, "Firstly, martial arts are respected in this world. Since the school was established, why only teach the traditional imperial examinations such as the Four Books and Five Classics? Instead of teaching martial arts?"

"Secondly, Li Shangshu's excerpts say that academies will be established all over the country, but they only divide them into two methods: appropriating money and food to increase government schools and encouraging gentry to run private schools. There is no mention of the requirements for government schools and private schools."

"Thirdly, although the brochure repeatedly mentioned the need to promote education, it did not set specific goals. For example, how many schools will be built across the country in how many years, how many students will they have, how much funding will be needed each year, and so on, all of which are vague. How can this work?"

"Finally, someone should have mentioned to Li Shangshu the Young Eagle Academy that I established back then? Why didn't Li Shangshu think about referring to the school-running model of the Young Eagle Academy, and then make some appropriate changes to promote it across the country?"

The existence of the Young Eagle Institute is the main reason why Ouyang Ye didn't mention how the Ministry of Education will implement this school plan - he thought that from the looks of these officials, he should know to promote the Young Eagle Institute model.

Li Shuyuan was gradually dumbfounded when he heard Ouyang Ye's words.

He really wanted to say: Isn't that how the imperial court ran schools in the past?
But he couldn't say this to Ouyang Ye, who was the emperor, with confidence.

Most importantly, he did not expect that Ouyang Ye was not ignorant of the establishment of the school, but had a deep insight.

But in the end, he still found a point of rebuttal to Ouyang Ye's words, so he said sullenly: "The Young Eagle Academy is the school of the Son of Heaven, and it should be the only one. How can it be popularized in the world?"

This time it was Ouyang Ye's turn to be dumbfounded.

He did not expect Li Shuyuan's reason for excluding the promotion of the Young Eagle Academy model to be so "powerful".

After being taken aback for a moment, Ouyang Ye asked back: "Li Shangshu thinks that my throne needs to be consolidated through learning from the Son of Heaven?"

Li Shuyuan dare not admit this.

If he admitted it, wouldn't he be questioning the legitimacy of Ouyang Ye, the emperor?
If so, why should he be an official in the Dagan court?

But just based on what Ouyang Ye said before, it is still not enough to make him number in the field he is best at.

So Li Shuyuan avoided Ouyang Ye's question, and asked in a tone that seemed to be asking for advice: "Then what does Your Majesty think about Dagan's plan to start a school?"

The underlying meaning of this sentence is: Didn't you say that I can't do it, you can do it if you get a job.

Ouyang Ye was about to take this opportunity to mention Li Shuyuan, so after thinking for a while, he began to talk——

"First of all, the content of teaching in schools must be changed. Confucian classics such as the Four Books and Five Classics must still be taught, but Confucian classics cannot be taught only.

Other knowledge such as mathematics, astronomy and geography should also be taken seriously.Of course, the most important thing is martial arts.

Martial arts are prosperous in this world, what the imperial court needs to do is not to suppress, but to guide.Since martial artists from martial arts sects and gangs of rivers and lakes are not easy to control, the imperial court trains their own martial artists, and eventually all martial artists in the world come from imperial court schools instead of sects and gangs.

In this way, not only can the court's force be kept strong for a long time, but it can also effectively monitor and restrain the warriors in the world. "

Just listening to Ouyang Ye's theory, Li Shuyuan's complexion changed. It was no longer the previous expression of waiting to see a joke, but his eyes sparkled, showing surprise.

Originally, Li Shuyuan thought that Ouyang Ye insisted on letting the school teach martial arts, but just like the founding emperors of all dynasties, he emphasized martial arts and despised literature.

But never thought that Ouyang Ye would have such far-reaching thoughts.

Dayu has carried out several reforms regarding the decline of the imperial court's force and the increasing proliferation of martial arts fighters. At Li Shuyuan's age, he even experienced Dayu's last related reform.

It's a pity that Emperor Tianyuan was inexperienced and courageous when he was young, and various problems in Dayu were also entrenched, and the reform failed not long after it started.

Now, Ouyang Ye noticed this problem when the country was founded, no doubt his vision surpassed that of many founding emperors.

And this kind of idea of ​​establishing a school and reforming the teaching content of the school so that all warriors in the world will eventually come from the school, and there will be no sects or gangs in time, is also an extremely clever method.

In the end, Li Shuyuan couldn't help feeling admiration for Ouyang Ye.

It was also at this time that he finally realized that Ouyang Ye's achievement today was not just because of his extremely high martial arts talent, but because of his true talent!
At this time, Ouyang Ye continued after a pause: "My conclusion is that the content taught in the school in the future can be classified into three aspects.

One mainly focuses on Confucian classics, poems and articles, teaching students how to behave and cultivate themselves.

One focuses on miscellaneous subjects such as mathematics, astronomy and geography, engineering, criminal law, etc., teaching students to be good at a certain aspect, so that they can do things, do things, and even make substantial contributions to the people and the country.

The last one is naturally based on martial arts, continuously teaching martial artists, and teaching martial artists who are getting stronger and stronger.It can solve the problem of warriors' influence on the court's rule from the root, and it can also improve my military strength. "

Speaking of this, Ouyang Ye paused again, because there was another important reason for him not to say.

As early as when he first obtained the system, he discovered that the stronger the people belonging to his influence, the greater the influence value they individually contributed.

Therefore, when he really dominates the world one day, if he wants to continue to increase his influence value, besides encouraging births and increasing the population, there is another way to increase the average strength of the people.

Jiang Bai and Li Shuyuan quickly digested what Ouyang Ye had said after Ouyang Ye paused.

Then Jiang Bai couldn't help saying: "Your Majesty, in fact, there is another reason why the Young Eagle Academy model cannot be promoted on a large scale, and that is too much money.

The professor of miscellaneous studies mentioned by His Majesty is not a big deal, but if Dagan teaches martial arts in all official schools, I am afraid that not many common people's children will be able to learn them well.

Your Majesty is also a martial artist, so he must know how expensive martial arts training is, and it is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people. "

Li Shuyuan also nodded.

What Jiang Bai said is quite right. It is not that the imperial courts of all dynasties wanted to train their own warriors on a large scale, but that they really did not have the financial resources.

Ouyang Ye's method is tantamount to opening up the channels of martial arts training to the common people, but the financial resources consumed by martial arts training must be borne by the common people, right?
How can ordinary people afford it?

Jiang Bai's words didn't put Ouyang Ye in any doubt. He showed a confident smile and said, "If the common people can't afford it, then the imperial court should bear it and implement compulsory education in Dagan!"

compulsory education?

Hearing this new word that Ouyang Ye seems to have created himself, both Jiang Bai and Li Shuyuan couldn't help being taken aback.

Immediately, they all chewed on the meaning of this new word.

Soon, Jiang Bai said: "Your Majesty is saying that the court will pay to train students to practice martial arts?"

"That's right." Ouyang Ye nodded affirmatively.

Jiang Bai smiled wryly after hearing this, and said, "But the problem is that the imperial court can't afford the money, can it?"

"If you can't do it, then find a way to do it." Ouyang Ye's tone was unquestionable, and then he said: "Education is a century-old project. We don't have to rush for a while. We can implement it in stages. For example, first implement three-year compulsory education, and then improve to six years, and then to nine years.

Of course, the most important thing is to find ways to improve the national strength and make the country and the people rich. This is the fundamental way to solve the problem, and it is also the main problem we have learned to face as national rulers. "

Hearing this, Li Shuyuan breathed a sigh of relief, regardless of his age to be Ouyang Ye's grandfather, he bowed to Ouyang Ye and praised sincerely: "Your Majesty is truly a saint alive!"
