Liu Sizai actually felt somewhat resentful in his heart.
After the completion of the Capital University, a large number of Imperial College students moved to the Capital University, and the popularity of the Imperial Academy was greatly reduced.
But of course he did not dare to vent his grievances to the capital's university hall, let alone complain to the emperor.
He only kowtowed and claimed that it was a capital crime.
At this time, several cabinet ministers also came to the steps.
Ye Xianggao said angrily: "As a supervisor, I don't want to study hard and get involved in these things.
I am being taken advantage of without knowing it.
Liu Sizai, don't you know?"
Take them back."
Liu Sizai was Ye Xianggao's student and immediately replied: "What the teacher said is that the disciple will take them back now."
After that, he said to the supervisors: "If you don't get up yet, go back and study hard."
The students were not afraid of offering wine in the first place, but the emperor and cabinet ministers were all there, so they did not dare to speak back.
They all stood up, saluted, and left in dejection.
Ye Xianggao said: "The Imperial College needs to be reformed.
Liu Sizai can't control these students."
Xu Guangqi smiled and said: "Your Majesty is preparing to add arithmetic to the Imperial College.
Then they will have no time to fool around."
Fang Congzhe said: "Why do you want to add arithmetic?
Why not divide it into six subjects like the Capital University?"
Zhu Youxiao said: "Mathematics is the basis of all other subjects.
Only when you learn mathematics well can you learn other subjects better.
Mr.
Xu is the most influential in this regard.
He wrote a special article on calendar correction and precession.
It is very detailed, and I am going to excerpt a part of this memorial and print it on the title page of the mathematics book.”
The ministers surrounded Zhu Youxiao and returned to the palace.
After sitting down, Wei Zhongxian came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the matter has been found out.
It is Wang Qia's student Liu Siyuan, who is the director of the Imperial College.
It was he who encouraged the students to go to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to cry. ” Zhu Youxiao said: "Forget it, ignore him first."
Ye Xianggao said: "Your Majesty, we can't forget it.
Liu Siyuan used this method to take advantage of students, which has violated the laws of the Ming Dynasty.
If he is not severely punished, there will be many others who will imitate him in the future."
Zhu Youxiao looked at Fang Congzhe and Xu Guangqi, both of whom nodded.
So he said: "Then capture Yusi and decide according to the rules."
Xu Guangqi said: "Your Majesty, I have discussed it with you, and I am afraid that a two-pronged approach will be needed to reduce the rent to be effective."
Zhu Youxiao was very interested and asked: "How to do both?"
Xu Guangqi said: "On the one hand, we should increase the intensity of immigration, at least in terms of momentum, to put pressure on the landlords.
The second aspect is to have enlightened landlords, promise them benefits, and take the initiative to offer rent reductions.
This may lead to other people."
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said: "Actually, I also know that the only truly effective method is violence.
But if it can be done without violence, it is better not to use violence.
Intensify publicity in newspapers, mobilize enlightened landlords, and increase immigration, all at the same time.
Don’t be too impatient.
Let’s wait until the statistics from the past three years are compiled before rolling out rent reductions across the country.”
Fang Congzhe said: "The trial of Yanqing Wei in Dali Temple has come to a conclusion.

Three people have been sentenced to beheading and twelve people have been sentenced to exile."
Zhu Youxiao asked: "Where is Yuan Chonghuan?"
Fang Congzhe said: "Yuan Chonghuan was guilty of withholding military pay and embezzling 10% from officials, so he was sentenced to exile."
Zhu Youxiao said: "Is this a heavy sentence or a light sentence?"
Fang Congzhe said: "As a Jinshi, he is polite and decent, so Dali Temple will show some mercy."
Zhu Youxiao said: "If you don't show mercy, you will be beheaded."
Fang Congzhe said: "Those who were born as Jinshi were sentenced to beheading only if they failed in the army.
In other cases, the most they could do was exile."
Zhu Youxiao sneered and said: "Haha, the punishment is not good enough.
The doctor judges the crime according to the law and is not allowed to show mercy."
Xu Guangqi said: "Your Majesty, once this case is opened, all officials will be in danger."
Zhu Youxiao said: "Since the time of Taizu, there have been countless people in this dynasty who have been beheaded because they were Jinshi, but only in recent years.
Since I want to govern the government, of course I will have to severely punish them, although it will not be as skinned as in the time of Taizu.
It’s okay to pull off the grass, but behead the dog.”
Xu Guangqi didn't like the emperor's statement about beheading his dog.
He thought this statement was rather vulgar.
But now is not the time to care about this.
He said: "Your Majesty, severe punishment alone cannot make the officialdom better."
Zhu Youxiao said: "I know this.
The most important thing is to give everyone the right to report, so that corruption and other illegal activities have nowhere to escape."
Fang Congzhe and others were shocked.
Could it be that the emperor was planning to restore the copper system of the Wu Zhou Dynasty?
Ye Xianggao said: "Your Majesty, the incident of the copper system has made informants rampant.
Although it has the effect of curbing official corruption, people's hearts have become despicable.
In the end, it became a means for everyone to criticize each other, and the social atmosphere became extremely bad.
This matter outweighs the gains and losses.
Please think deeply about it. " Zhu Youxiao said: "Reporting and reporting are different.
Reporting is out of public outrage, reporting is out of selfish desires; reporting is out of justice, reporting is out of evil.
What I want is reporting, not reporting, and I will not be like Wu Zhou At that time, there were bronze whistles, but report boxes were set up all over the country, only for violations of laws and disciplines, and there were no rewards for those who reported false accusations. " Fang Congzhe said: "With reporting boxes set up all over the country, who would dare to report under the prestige of local officials?"
Zhu Youxiao said: "The reporting box is not located in the government office, and local officials do not have the power to inspect the reporting box.
I am planning to set up an agricultural cooperative to provide small loans to farmers and recycle their belongings.
The reporting box is just hanging Within the agricultural cooperative, Dongchang is responsible for unpacking and inspection.
All anonymous letters will not be accepted, and those with signatures will be collected and processed uniformly. " Ye Xianggao said happily: "This is also a good idea, but the agricultural cooperatives your Majesty mentioned will be difficult to spread across the country in a short time."
Zhu Youxiao said: "In fact, it is not as difficult as imagined.
Don't worry about manpower.
You can use the excess internal officials in the palace first, rent a house or build a new house.
It's just that in terms of money, you are not very rich.
I'm afraid you have to borrow money from the bank.
Just borrow some money."
Xu Guangqi said: "Nowadays, the amount of deposits is increasing rapidly, and there is a lot of surplus money in the bank.
The amount of silver and copper transported in Japan has also increased greatly, and the mint is now too busy.
So it is not difficult to get a loan from the bank.
It's just that Regarding the interest issue, 30% to 60% is too much.
It is impossible for the agricultural cooperative to make money in the early stage, but it may lose money, so can the bank lower the interest rate or even eliminate it?
" Zhu Youxiao said: "The bank was originally owned by the imperial court, and I intend to turn the agricultural cooperative into a private commercial bank, so the interest will still have to be collected, or at most it will be reduced.

As for the main capital, I am going to use private money to collect shares.
If you all If I have some spare money, I will at least not lose money if I invest it in an agricultural cooperative
