Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

"My lord Gongsun, His Majesty the Emperor wants to carry out the "Yi Wen Ling" and "Yi Fu Ling" in Fusang Kingdom. In my opinion, there is no need for it."

Wu Xi frowned and said, "It has been 11 years since the widow established the state."

"With the merit of enlightenment and the submission of the subjects, except for the barbarians who have only been conquered in recent years, the rest of the people in Fusang can basically speak Wu dialect."

"As for writing Wu characters, there is no need. The people who accompanied the widow to the east to Fusang and established the country were all entrusted with important tasks by the widow and became courtiers and officials."

"With their assistance, why bother?"

Hearing this, Gongsun Ning shook his head and said, "Your Highness, the "Yi Wen Ling" and "Yi Fu Ling" are policies that His Majesty the First Emperor wants to implement, and all vassal kingdoms must implement them."

Does Wu Xi still dare to resist the edict?
Wu Xi didn't have the guts.

Over the years, under Wu Xi's tireless governance, the subjects of Fusang Kingdom have basically been "Wu Hua".

Currency, using five baht coins, or things like gold and cloth for transactions.

The clothes of Fusang people are also in line with Dawu, and there is no difference.

Therefore, in Wu Xi's view, it is inevitable that Qingji's "Yi Wen Ling" and "Yi Fu Ling" to be implemented in Fusang Kingdom are superfluous.

……

Great Wu Emperor Capital, Jinling, Guozijian.

The predecessor of Guozijian was Jixia Academy. After Qingji ruled the world, the "Guozijian" was established in Jinling.

Guozijian includes a comprehensive institution of higher learning including Military Academy, Engineering Academy, Law Academy, Agricultural Academy, Medical Academy, and Business Academy.

Ritual wine is a celebration of taboos, and business is a type of language.

Scholars who graduated from Guozijian are generally called "Students of the Son of Heaven", and they belong to Qingji's disciples.

Guozijian trained hundreds of thousands of talents for Wu, such as officials, generals, merchants, doctors, craftsmen, etc. After graduation, they engaged in various occupations and contributed to the construction of Wu.

Guozijian is the highest institution of learning in the Great Wu Empire, and its students are now maintained at about 3 people all year round.

Those who can enter the Imperial College are not ordinary.

Thanks to the various policies implemented before celebrating Jiji, education strengthens the country. There are township schools in townships, county schools in counties, and county schools in counties. One can imagine.

Over the years, due to the feudalism and founding of the Great Wu everywhere, the original reserves of talents are also stretched.

In order to make the best use of talents, Qingji selected a large number of scholars from county schools, county schools, and even rural schools, and went to various feudal kingdoms to take office.

Leaving aside knowledge, at least one must be able to read and write.

The "involution" on the native side of Great Wu has been very serious. Only talented people can serve as officials, and some people with mediocre talents can only get high official positions and show their strengths in the kingdoms of the vassal states.

At this time, not only the Guozijian, but also the county schools, county schools, and rural schools all over the mainland of Dawu posted notices to encourage scholars to go out and become officials.

In the early years, there were still many scholars who actively responded to Qingji's call and took the initiative to go to the vassal kingdom to serve. However, the places under the rule of the vassal kingdoms are all wild lands. If they go there to settle down, it may be difficult for them to return to their hometown for the rest of their lives. up.

In view of this, many scholars are actually unwilling to go out to serve.

"His Majesty the First Emperor ordered that all scholars who go out to serve as officials of the vassal kingdom, not to mention the treatment of their families, each person can be rewarded with [-] yuan, [-] pieces of cloth, and an official rank of at least [-] shi. The level of the official position depends on the situation!"

"In order to make up for the vacancies, the second and third sons are asked to draw lots to decide whoever goes out to take office can still stay!"

In order to fill the vacant official positions in the kingdoms of the feudal vassals, Qingji did everything possible.

The method of encouragement is no longer effective, so it can only be "forced".

The method of coercion is also very simple, that is, drawing lots.

Draw lots to decide!

A scholar with a face like a crown of jade stepped forward, reached into the wooden box, grabbed out a ball of paper, opened it, and his face collapsed immediately.

"go?"

"Oh, it's terrible. I really want to chop off my hapless hand."

"Brother, accept your fate. Anyway, the "Wu Law" stipulates that after ten years of tenure in the feudal kingdom, you can stay as you want."

"Isn't that equivalent to being sent to prison for ten years? What is my crime? To be reduced to this level..."

Deciding whether to stay or not by drawing lots is destined to be happy for some and sad for others.

The person who drew the word "Go" naturally had a sad face, wishing he could hit his head to death.

The person who got the word "stay" wept with joy, and couldn't help secretly saying that their ancestors would bless them.

Either way, if someone stays, someone will leave.

Fortunately, Qingji is still more humane, and scholars who migrated to the feudal kingdom with their families are not required to stay there for the rest of their lives.

But at least ten years.

Ten years later, if they didn't turn out to be human, they would naturally return to their homeland and settle down in Great Wu.

The scholars had already been "assigned" by Dawu before they graduated. It is conceivable that Dawu's talent resources were somewhat scarce at this time.

Qing Ji, who was visiting privately on Weibo, also noticed this.

Do you want to open up the wisdom of the people and implement compulsory education for all in Dawu?
Qingji was quite hesitant about this.

Qingji had an idea about this matter in his early years, but at that time, Great Wu's national power was limited, education resources were not allocated enough, and if he "opened up the wisdom of the people", it might harm the interests of the Great Wu royal family, so Qingji gave up on it.

Now, the situation is very different.

Without enough talent reserves, Da Wu will fall into a relatively passive situation.

The most deadly problem is that the feudal kingdoms have to promote some talents from the local area to help them maintain the stable operation of the country.

However, in this way, Qing Ji or the successor of Great Wu cannot control the future of the various vassal kingdoms in the end.

At this time, Qingji, Prince Heng, and Fan Li, who had dressed up in disguise, were wandering around the bustling market in Jinling City, observing the people's sentiments.

Jinling, the capital city that has hosted the Great Wu for more than 30 years, is already extremely prosperous.

The capital of the greatest empire ever built, the city of Jinling was packed with people from all over Asia.

There are many shops in the city, the market is prosperous, and the urban population is more than 100 million!
Jinling's Outer Guocheng is located in two places where businesses are concentrated.

One is East City and the other is West City.

The eastern and western cities became the commercial centers of Jinling City.

The two markets each occupy two squares of land, surrounded by walls, and each wall has two gates, and there are streets leading directly between the two opposite gates.

Beside the street, there are many winding alleys.

The streets and alleys are connected to each other, so it is very convenient to come and go.

There are 220 lines in each of the two cities in the east and west, including clothing, food, housing, transportation, culture and entertainment, and production tools.

Shops have shop fronts, displaying goods, waiting for customers to come to buy.

With the development of store operation, the original shop is no longer enough to display and sell goods, and needs to be increased. The newly added shop in front of the original shop is called "partial shop"...
