Chapter 268: A New School Politics That "Pits" Out of Happiness
The lessons of the previous car and Wang Anshi's reform were put there as a lesson of failure, and when Ma Kuo's words were finished, Liu Xing immediately understood the meaning hidden in his words.
I know what it means, and I know that it is the truth. The faction composed of friends, teachers and students, and various officialdom interest groups built up by family and friendship, Liu Xing knew that it was impossible to sweep them away immediately.
It can't be swept away for the time being, but Liu Xing will not connive at and shield those old evils of officialdom with many factions to continue to develop in the court under his control.
So after Ma Kuo's words were finished, Liu Xing just thought for a while and then said: "Isn't there a lot of idle jobs in the river work, salt and iron, and no one has gone to take office?" After the dismissal, those officials were first placed in those offices. If those duties are not enough, they can also be transferred to the local government and private government administration. ”
The government supervises the private school administration, which is also the most eye-catching and worrying new policy implemented by Liu Xing.
Since the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the imperial examination has always been the only one that the imperial court has taken care of, and only symbolically set up some schools in various places. There has never been a dynasty before that that dared to thoroughly penetrate the concept of running a school for all to the people like Liu Xing's new law today.
Every year, the local state and county government must set a sum equivalent to one-half of the local yamen's income from the taxes collected by the yamen to run schools, which is the first article to be implemented in the new policy of Liu Xingguan and supervising the private government.
According to this ratio, if you compare some of the state capitals in the southeast of the river, the government allocates at least 50,000 households and 300,000 children to school every year.
But this is not enough, because Liu Xing understands deeply. In many places, it is not that there is no school, but that the parents of the children themselves decide that they will not let all the children in the family go to school.
The idea of having more children and more blessings has been deeply rooted in the land of China. Many parents have a bunch of children. It will always be the boy who goes to school and the girl who is at home. The male baby is out of office, and the female baby follows her parents to farm the land as a female worker to support the male baby since she was a child. There are even more families who will give up a few male babies and focus on cultivating one or two of them to study and seek fame......
This is a habit and a tradition, and Liu Xing knows that he is unable to immediately restrain this tradition and habit that is destined to restrict the advancement of Chinese civilization.
However, Liu Xing still wants to improve this tradition and custom through his own efforts. Even a little bit of it is a boost to the rapid development of Chinese civilization.
Therefore, in terms of government supervision and private government management, Liu Xing's second decree was to explicitly order that all school-age children must enter schools and official schools, and they can study for at least six years.
Otherwise. The parents of the children will be punished with a year or two of official service in the local labor camps, or directly thrown into the camps.
This is learned in later generations with the rule of law, and Liu Xing is also very clear that it is a bit harsh and unkind.
In order to weaken this harsh feeling, Article 3 of Liu Xing's official and private school decree has become a benefit and a benefit to the people: all children and teenagers who have studied for more than six years can receive a certain amount of food subsidies every year in their families, regardless of whether they are male or female.
In this way, those parents send their children to schools and government schools to study, but not only will not affect their own lives. On the contrary, there will be a lot of subsidies. The more children and the more children who study, the more subsidies they will receive.
The source of this subsidy, Liu Xing's actual instructions to the household department, are not really all allocated by the household department and local yamen. It is supported by the income of labor camps and re-education camps where many stupid parents are bound to be caught working for free.
It is taken from the people, used by the people, taken from the study and politics, and used by the study and politics. The idea. It wasn't until Hui came to his side that Liu Xing realized that it was actually a kind of pit, prosperity, the people suffered, and the people died, and the people suffered, and he just did a thing that made the people feel a sense of happiness while being "pitted" by the imperial court......
In this new system of official supervision and private schools, there are now tens of thousands of vacant official positions in schools and schools at all levels in Hedong alone.
Although those official positions did not have many rights, the income of those positions was to a certain extent much higher than that of a county magistrate, a state government, and a governor and a staff member in the new official system in the future.
The reason why the professors of academic administration and government schools will have a higher income than that of local officials is that it is the benefit of the government and the private office.
In this kind of private administration stipulated by Liu Xing's new law, there are three clear provisions: First, those who have talents in county schools and township schools will be rewarded by local yamen to the schools where Xiucai has studied.
Those who are selected for the promotion will be rewarded by the governor and the political secretary of the province after the merger. Anyone who has won the Jinshi, from the provincial level to the village level, and all levels of academic administration will have heavy rewards directly issued by the officials and households.
On this article, before it was issued that day, Liu Xing had humorously defined it at the cabinet meeting of Tianshu Pavilion: "The imperial court uses money to buy talents from those local schools, and the more talents they cultivate, the higher the income." On the contrary, if a school that can't train talents, I'll let him close down in a few years......"
In the second article of this new academic policy, Liu Xing also made the rules of the game of survival of the fittest clearer. Where there are many talents, people, and scholars, there will naturally be more shops and businesses run by officials and merchants in various places. Those who can't train talents can only get a small amount of commercial funding.
This article also directly determines the commercial offices in the official supervision and commercial offices, and the main sources of funds fall on the official supervision and commercial industries in various places. In this way, the funds required for the school administration have been stabilized to a great extent.
As a reward for those industries, Liu Xing immediately made a note on the third day. That is, if the students who have been selected for showmanship, promotion, and jinshi, if they are not willing to be officials, they can give priority to those industries to do things. Between officials and businessmen, this kind of academic administration and the new system advocated by Liu Xing's new law complement each other, and they have become completely equal in nature.
Those businessmen were all shrewd and came home, of course, they could see from the third article of Liu Xing's official supervision of the new set of academic administrations that Liu Xing actually secretly gave them two rewards that they did not dare to hope for before.
The first reward is to raise their status so that they will no longer be in the ranks of the lower three streams in the arrangement of the three religions and nine streams.
The second kind of return, those businessmen will understand, there will be many students who will not be able to enter the officialdom after obtaining the meritorious examination, or will not be able to get into the officialdom after entering the officialdom. And as long as you have read books and have fame, it will always be easier for you to become a businessman, a cow man, or even a god than those who have been working in the store since childhood.
People in this era do not understand what knowledge is productivity, and they do not understand the truth that talent is the capital with the greatest competition. But businessmen at least understand the truth that scholars have a wider vision and great development potential than shopkeepers
Because of this, as soon as Liu Xing's new academic policy was implemented, it was not opposed by businesses from all over the world, but became extremely prosperous and prosperous. It's only been less than two months, and now in the area controlled by King Shin's court, it is now a scene where villages and villages have official schools and townships are competing for children......
Ma Kuo is naturally very clear about these situations.
He can also guess the true intention of Liu Xing's intention to assign those officials who have been laid off to study politics: Liu Xing is using high income to block the possible existence of faction leaders in his residence to impact the cabinet, and he is also directly blocking the mouths of Zhang Suo, Zong Ze and other cabinet elders.
Guessing the meaning of this layer, Ma Kuo frowned and thought for a while after Liu Xing's words were finished, and then said: "Then the following officials have a humble opinion, not only Xuezheng can accept those officials who have been eliminated. There are too many vacancies in the fields of salt and iron, transshipment, river work, etc., which can be used to accommodate those officials who have been laid off. ”
"That's it!" After hearing Ma Kuo's supplementary suggestion, Liu Xingmeiyu stretched out his eyebrows and said with a faint smile: "If you want to divert those officials who have been laid off, am I afraid of so many vacant positions?" ”
"Triage?" Hearing such a fresh word, Ma Kuo was stunned at first.
But soon, he got used to the new words that kept popping out of Liu Xing's mouth, and he didn't ask questions, because the meaning of that word was already very obvious.
Ma Kuo just frowned, lowered his head and thought about it again, then looked up at Liu Xing and asked the third question: "Then may I ask Taifu, which official will be eliminated and which official will not be eliminated, and what method are you going to use?" The criterion for choosing the elimination is "This master of the trick has helped me think about it last night, and the officials of the state capitals and below will be re-examined by the Ministry of Officials, the Council, and the Imperial History."
What to comment on? ”
Hearing his question, Liu Xing's smile became even brighter, he looked sideways at Hui on the side, and then said to Ma Kuo: As a foundation. Take out the old things that all officials used to be officials and use them as the basis for evaluation. ”
At this point, Liu Xing's face sank, and then said: "Competent, honest, and with a good reputation among the people, even if he is now an eight-grade county magistrate, the master must be promoted and let him go straight to Fusi." has no ability, is greedy, and has a bad livelihood, even if he was the manager of the whole way, the master will immediately let him lose his official position and get out. If it is serious, it will be thrown directly to the indoctrination camp. ”
The capable are up, the mediocre are down, the honest are promoted, the greedy lose their officials, the favored ones with high popularity, and the people who lose their hearts suffer. In fact, this has always been the principle of using officials that Liu Xing has adhered to since he took power, and Ma Kuo is not surprised by this at all.
However, Guoshi is not a poisoner after all, and he will not only think about how to trap people and use poison tricks to help Liu Xing implement the new law and crack down on corrupt officials. What the countrymen have done is more to prevent the slightest and eliminate the good.
Therefore, although Ma Kuo is not surprised by Liu Xing's ruthless decision-making on the governance of officials, he still expressed another doubt: "But if there is really a former governor who was corrupt and preyed on the common people in the previous dynasty, he has become a good official in my new dynasty." If Taifu deals with them all, I am afraid that it will still cause instability in the DPRK and China! (To be continued......)
