Chapter 202 Chapter 202: Seeking refinement rather than more
After talking about the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, Gu Qiqi proposed building an official road.

Dayong's civil way and official way are both at the same time.

If an official channel is built, all matters related to the country will be handled through the official channel in the future, which can save a lot of time.

Moreover, if you want to get rich first build roads, there are many lessons learned from the past.

Only when the road is easy to walk can the common people walk out, and the things from the mountains can be brought out.

Only the economy can drive it.

In addition, there is the matter of the academy.

Now that the country lacks a large number of talents, the country should vigorously support learning.

A Chinese Academy of Chinese Studies is opened. Those who meet the age and meet the conditions can enter the Academy of Chinese Studies for free tuition.

"Free tuition, this is not a small project. It is a huge sum of money in one year. How can it be repaid in the long run?" Zhao Hu was shocked when he heard Gu Qiqi's speech.

At this time, Chang Wu said calmly: "What are you afraid of? The population of Dayong is not large, and a large part of the men have been conscripted into the barracks. Now there is another South-to-North Water Diversion Project, which will go to some men. How many more will there be in the end?" Can you go to school to study?"

Gu Qiqi: "Who said that only men can enter the school? Women can too."

"The Chinese studies classes offered can be divided into women's classes and men's classes. Women can also study in the hall."

After hearing this, Nangong Yi fell into deep thought, then nodded, and finally shook his head: "But women will not be of much use after they complete their studies. We can't train them in vain, right?"

Gu Qiqi: "Who said that women have little effect after they have completed their studies. Women can hold up half the sky. It's just because too many rules restrict women's performance."

Zhao Song: "I agree with Qiqi on this point. You see, Qiqi is a woman. She is much stronger than many men."

Nangong Yi: "But women can't serve as officials in the court, right?"

Gu Qiqi: "Why not? As long as she has the ability, as long as she can bring benefits to the country, it doesn't matter if a woman becomes an official in the court."

Nangong Yi: "No, no, no, it won't work."

Nangong Ye understood Nangong Yi's worries, so he said, "Are you worried about the opposition of the civil and military officials?"

Nangong Yi did not speak, expressing his acquiescence.

Nangong Ye continued: "If it is because of this, then don't worry. Whoever disagrees will be replaced. How many people in the court today are serious about serving the people? If it were not for the shortage of manpower, those who People should have gone back and rested long ago.”

"You are sitting in the position above now. As long as you agree, it is not a matter of life and death. You can always overcome it. There is a precedent for everything."

Fang Yu stood up: "Don't underestimate women, although not every woman is like Qiqi, but there is one. Not everyone can be an official in the court, but of course excellent talents can do it. What a man can do Women can do things, and maybe there are some things that women can do better than men. As Qiqi said, learn from each other's strengths."

Zhao Hu: "Yes, Sixth Brother, now that you are the emperor, your original intention is for Dayong. Those old immortals are opposed because they are worried that women will squeeze them out and there will be no place for them. But this What can we do? Dayong only needs talented people, not people who occupy the manhole and do nothing."

Zhao Song: "That's right, like this South-to-North Water Diversion, how many people in the court opposed it at the beginning, thinking that it was an impossible project, didn't you overcome all difficulties and start this project?"

Chang Ning: "Once this project is completed, it will be a great benefit to the country and the people. Who among those old immortals will dare to point fingers?"

Nangong Ye: "If you still have scruples, this matter is not something that you will act upon just mentioning it. You can wait for the completion of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project. Then use Qi Qi to be the first female official in Dayong."

After Nangongye finished speaking, he looked at Gu Qiqi. After hearing what Nangongye said, Gu Qiqi did not object, but raised the corner of his mouth and replied: "I have no objection to this, I can set this precedent."

Being a female official is an official, which is very different from being a queen. An official can go around.

And you can also have privileges, and you can get a salary. This is an iron rice bowl.

Fang Yu: "That's right, they have nothing to say about letting Qiqi be the first female official in Dayong. The drought in the north is due to Qiqi. The war in the South Pass is due to Qiqi. The flood in the south is due to Qiqi." The credit. Add in the matter of the south-to-north water diversion, and a proposal to build official roads. Let's see who dares to say that we women are money-losing goods, assholes."

Chang Wu: "Don't worry. When the time comes, we will stand behind you to support you, so don't be afraid. We will beat anyone who objects to you. Beat them until they agree."

Fang Yu rolled his eyes at Chang Wu: "That's not necessary, we women can prove it on our own."

Seeing everyone talking to each other, Nangong Yi finally nodded and temporarily agreed to the matter.

If you think about it, you can do it step by step.

But just as he was about to nod in agreement, another question appeared in front of him: "But if all the women join the court and serve as officials, and the men go to the border to protect their families and the country, who will farm the land? Wouldn't there be less food?"

Fang Yu: "Not all women have joined the court as officials. Aren't there still so many ordinary people farming?"

Zhao Hu: "This is also easy to solve. It's really not enough to worry about. Let everyone hurry up and have a few more babies?"

Zhao Hu's words fell, and Fang Yu and Qi Qi rolled their eyes at the same time.

"Is this going to reduce women to reproductive tools again?"

Although there is nothing wrong with giving birth to a woman's bounden duty, and only women can do it, it is not a tool to use women to desperately give birth to children.

Gu Qiqi said slowly: "Don't worry, we in Dayong strive for refinement rather than excess. Naturally, there are ways to solve the problem of food. Over in Jiangducheng, I have arranged for people to study hybrid rice. If everything goes well, the common people should be able to grow it next year. On to hybrid rice.”

"The maximum yield per mu of hybrid rice can range from [-] to [-] kilograms. Because the yield will be different depending on the degree of fertilization."

"In addition, there are threshing machines for harvesting now, which can save a lot of effort and time in harvesting, so there is no need to worry about food."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hu slapped his thigh with a big hand. Although he gasped in pain, he couldn't help but said, "Yeah, how could I forget about this?"

Because Nangong Yi didn't know that Gu Qiqi was researching hybrid rice, he was confused: "What is hybrid rice? How can the yield per mu be so high?"

Zhao Hu: "You won't understand even if I tell you, because we can't figure it out either. There's no doubt that Qiqi will take action. Anyway, it's just something that can increase production. You don't have to worry about running out of food in the future."
