Chapter 521 Someone is going to steal Liuyi
People often say that famous teachers produce high disciples, but in fact, Wang Ning'an said that more often, high disciples produce high disciples. Don't you see many people doing nothing for a lifetime, but just because they teach a good student, they will work from time to time and become famous all over the world.
Of course, Wang Ning'an's reputation does not require students to support him, but this glorious victory of Six Arts still adds a huge halo of educators to him...
Six Arts School, which has won the entire Academic Studies, is definitely a feat that has caused a sensation in the world, and it is super big news!
Even the prime ministers could not sit still. The imperial examinations in the Song Dynasty were a little different from those in later generations. They could review the examination papers. If the evaluation was unfair, they could file a complaint.
Of course, the palace examination was appointed by the emperor, and ordinary people do not have the courage to oppose the emperor.
Only those husbands who have become eloquents and censors who don’t care about anything.
But they got the test papers for the palace exam and continued to read them one by one.
The more I look, the ugly my complexion becomes, and I even sweat constantly.
For example, the topic of Zhao Zhending's strategy this time is the method of enriching the country and strengthening the army. This is a very general concept. There are many things to write about, but it is very difficult to write well.
For example, the top two of this time, Lu Huiqing and Zhang Dun, as the students Wang Ning'an values the most, their focus is different. Lu Huiqing wrote about the part about the land.
As we all know, the Song Dynasty did not suppress annexation. Obviously, it was a compromise with the gentry group and indulging them to annex the land at will. Until now, the Song Dynasty paid less than 30% of the land, and another 70% did not have to pay land. In other words, 70% of the land was occupied by scholars, and through various means, it was concealed, and the court collected no taxes.
Lu Huiqing knew the disadvantages, but he did not directly attack the land, but proposed two countermeasures. One was to issue preferential loans to the people through the banking system to help self-cultivated farmers overcome difficulties and prevent taking advantage of the dangers and deprive the land of low prices.
Secondly, Lu Huiqing proposed to distinguish between grain and other commodities, and to impose a tax of more than 50% on the transport and transactions of bulk grain.
This knife was ruthless!
The literati often have tens of thousands of mu of land, hundreds of thousands of mu of grain, and the warehouse is filled with grain. Obviously, they will not stay at home and get moldy, and must be sold for income.
In the past, grain was like other commodities, and the imperial court could only charge tolls according to the standard of twenty-two-one taxes.
Lu Huiqing proposed to increase it to 50%, which will increase it tenfold at once.
This move is indeed ruthless, which means that the profit margin of trafficking in grain is instantly abandoned, and maybe even lose money.
Providing loans increases the difficulty of land mergers and collects extra tolls to reduce the profit margin of land. If you continue with a combination of punches, the scholars and officials will not only not make money by annexing land, but will also lose money.
In this way, we will naturally reduce our enthusiasm for the land and objectively suppress annexation.
This approach is quite like Wang Ning'an dealing with the copper wasteland.
However, Lu Huiqing could also see that the high toll collection will affect grain trade, and it may cause food shortage. He proposed to expand overseas markets. The Song Dynasty sold hundreds of millions of silk and tea every year and should take out a fixed share, such as 30% of the profits, or more, to purchase grain and enrich the regular stocks in various places.
As long as the court has more chips, it is not afraid of a war of attrition!
Wang Ning'an has also read this article by Lu Huiqing. To be honest, Wang Ning'an was also amazed at the cruelty of "Fujianzi"! He is worthy of being the first general under the Aoxiang Gong. What Lu Huiqing has brought out is a completely upgraded and enhanced version of the Qingmiao Law!
It has to be said that Wang Ning'an's training has worked, and Lu Huiqing's skills have also improved rapidly. His approach is equivalent to joining forces with the power of finance and maritime commerce to jointly deal with the traditional scholar group.
Not to mention the odds of winning, at least it is countless times better than Wang Anshi's approach in history...
In contrast, Zhang Dun is more inclined to the aspect of "martial arts".
He believed that he should start with the Liao Kingdom and recover Yunzhou as soon as possible, and then advance water and land to take it back to Liaodong. Zhang Dun used his experience in serving as a mission and told the court that the fertile land of Liaodong was definitely not a bitter, cold and barbaric land.
Both the Han and Tang dynasties cultivated heavily in Liaodong, and the harvest of fertile black soil far exceeded that of the Central Plains.
Establishing military camps in Liaodong can help you to be self-sufficient.
Moreover, Liaodong can be used as an important horse farm. Based on this, it can marshal the grasslands and train cavalry. In time, it will be expected to eliminate the Western Xia and open up the Silk Road.
Obviously, these two policy theories are in line with the theme and have been appreciated by Zhao Zhen and are listed as the top two.
Looking at other people, Zeng Bu advocated financial management, strictly regulate the expenditure of yamen at all levels and eliminate extravagance and waste. Han Zongwu emphasized that training officials should have complete experience, use talents to avoid seniority. Su Shi emphasized the importance of education, and changed the style of academies and schools to truly study people's livelihood and interests...
Looking at all articles on Six Arts, there is a general characteristic, that is, pragmatism!
Almost everyone can speak something, and it is feasible to bring out real things.
Correspondingly, Zhang Zai and Er Cheng also participated in the palace examination. They proposed more about lenient punishment and loving the people, frugality and integrity, cultivating virtue and respecting the heavens, and resting with the people... These concepts are mostly clichés, and have no new ideas and no way to implement them. They are empty and gorgeous, and they just sound good.
Zhao Zhen, who was enterprising, would naturally not be satisfied. It can be seen from the ranking that students of the Six Arts generally took pre-examination, and Zhang Zai and the second Cheng all fell into the ranks of the third class, and Cheng Yi even lost the rear of the car. If it weren't for the palace examination, he might have failed!
...
What is your heart clear?
The faces of the several husbands in the Zhengshi Hall were very bad-looking, especially rare. Jia Changchao and Wen Yanbo, who had regarded him as enemies not long ago, got together. Both old guys looked like bitter melons, with their faces longer than donkeys.
Jia Changchao sighed first, "The younger waves of the Yangtze River push the older waves, and the new generation replaces the old ones. It seems that the future of the Song Dynasty belongs to these young people, and I should abdicate and give in to the wise."
After listening to his words, Wen Yanbo was about to vomit. You, Jia Changchao, are willing to give in. Now it's time to get out. Why bother to be the Prime Minister!
Wen Yanbo snorted, "Brother Ziming is the pillar of the Song Dynasty. It is the younger brother who should abdicate. Look at the article of the Principal Lang, how well he wrote, he needs to collect taxes! He also asks Brother Ziming to implement it well!"
"Bah! Huangkouruzi, he's talking nonsense!"
How could Jia Changchao not get angry? Their family is one of the big landlords, with hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land, and every year they earn 200,000 guan. If you follow the above, you have to pay nearly 100,000 guan and hand it over to the court, it would be better to kill him.
"Wang Ning'an, a kid, specializes in teaching students mathematics. He is watching the interests every day, and everyone is tempted by money!" Jia Chang was so angry that he cursed: "It would be strange if such a person is in charge of the court and the world is not in chaos!"
Wen Yanbo laughed and said, "Brother Ziming is very considerate, so I think Brother Ziming should uphold justice and stand up for everyone!"
"Show up? What's the point?"
Jia Chang snorted, "I'm not fooled." I was fooled last time and almost lost my reputation. This time I wanted me to stand up, so I'm not so stupid!"
"Brother Kuanfu, I heard that you and Wang Erlang have made a lot of money in the cement business together?"
Wen Yanbo shook his head hurriedly, "No, absolutely nothing, it's all rumors!"
Just pretend!
Jia Changchao sneered, "It seems that I should also discuss with Wang Erlang. What good way does he have? Tell me one and save some coffin books as soon as possible. Once the law changes, I will not have no pension money."
As he said that, Lao Jia actually got up and walked outside, as if he was really going to find Wang Ning'an.
This made Wen Yanbo very anxious. He was most afraid of Jia Changchao and Wang Ning'an discussing business.
I have already "in the water", so I must not pull another one!
"Brother Ziming! You are the backbone of everyone. If you encounter something, you can't ignore it!"
Jia Changchao snorted coldly, "Background? Commander of the Three Armies?"
"Yes, that's it!"
"The general has always been a backer, so please ask Brother Kuanfu to be the vanguard and charge into the battle!"
Wen Yanbo angrily squirted out old blood!
His eyes almost fell out, and he saw through it. Jia Changchao was completely shameless.
It’s simply a matter of unsteamed and uncooked Hob meat, which makes him stand out, is a huge difficulty!
But he can't do it if he doesn't come forward!
If you hold your handle in Wang Ning'an's hands, you will definitely be forced to death by Wang Ning'an.
After walking around the ground for several times, Wen Yanbo's eyes suddenly lit up.
"I said to Brother Ziming, can we settle for the next best?"
Jia Changchao rolled his big eyelids and said, "What do you mean?"
"It's just an article from the candidates. It can't be implemented yet. Let's take the Six Arts over!"
Jia Changchao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "How to get it? Will Wang Ning'an be willing to do it? Brother Kuanfu, you should save money!"
"No!"
Wen Yanbo was still excited, "Brother Ziming, think about it, the Six Arts School has such good grades, and it is very popular among the people in the world. After this subject is over, more scholars will definitely join the Six Arts, do you think?"
"That's right, my boys also want to send them to Liuyi. Is there any problem?"
"Of course! In the imperial examination, the emperor's disciple now has an additional Six Arts School. Are the candidates who came out? Or are they the emperor's disciples or Wang Ning'an's disciples? Are they the emperor's disciples or Wang Erlang?"
Wen Yanbo kept shaking his head, "The so-called water is full and the moon is full and the loss is lost. The Six Arts Academy is too dazzling and must restrain its sharpness. This is also good to Wang Erlang. I think he is as smart as him, and I will not object, and I also have to be grateful to us!"
After hearing this, Jia Changchao simply stopped reading Wen Yanbo. Even a shameless person like him blushed!
If you want to snatch the results you have worked hard to achieve, you are so open and honest. Wen Yanbo, how dare you ask where your face is?
Jia Changchao pondered for a long time. He really didn't want to offend Wang Ning'an, but the problem was that the performance of the Six Arts School had affected the foundation of the civil service group.
If they were asked to do two or three subjects like this, then the civil servants in the world would not be all from the Six Arts, so what would they do!
"After that, I will meet the saint with Brother Kuanfu. But after saying that, I just waved the flag and shouted, "You can only come to this boss!"
Chapter completed!
