Chapter 192: They're Just Children


Zhu Youxiao thought about his past life.

The school he studied in was not a key school.

A large number of students in some ordinary classes had no hope of going to college.

They spent their long high school years reading novels, playing on mobile phones, and falling in love every day.

Life.

I didn’t think about it carefully at the time, but now I think about it, does a cleaner really need a college degree?

For some people who don’t like to study, asking them to study is actually a kind of punishment.

He thought for a moment and said, "But they are just children.

What do they know?

Why not give them a chance to correct their mistakes?"

Xu Guangqi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, children also know right from wrong.

When they make mistakes, they test what they are going to do step by step, and then adults will intervene and pursue the case.

As long as a child is punished, the whole school will be punished for at least ten years.

This kind of incident will never happen again.

This is extremely effective in improving the quality of our people.”

Zhu Youxiao said: "But wouldn't the life of this student who was punished be ruined like this?"

Xu Guangqi replied: "Expulsion or reform through labor will not destroy a person.

To say the least, if a person continues to make mistakes despite the teacher's repeated orders, what does it matter if he is destroyed?

If you indulge him, everyone will soon follow him.

Come and learn, and then you won’t destroy anyone.”

Zhu Youxiao was horrified, and he bowed and said: "I would like to receive your teachings from Sir."

This is the biggest difference between China and the West.

The West emphasizes freedom, but the Chinese emphasize freedom under discipline.

Zhu Youxiao has always believed that freedom is of course good, but excessive freedom will harm the country and the people.

Americans have the freedom to burn the flag, but they will never allow the Ming people to do such a thing.

Xu Guangqi repeatedly said that he did not dare: "Your Majesty's kindness is a blessing to the world.

But if the law is too lenient, it will lose its original intention of guiding the people.

In addition, the veterans and cabinet members have read the logic textbooks of the law school and feel like this Books can’t just be for law students If everyone in the Ming Dynasty has read this book, there will naturally be much fewer disputes, and things will naturally be more appropriate and rational.

If your Majesty allows it, I think the simplified version can be included in the middle school textbooks.

It can be used as a textbook for various universities.”

Zhu Youxiao smiled sheepishly and said: "I read some translated Western books and felt that Westerners have done a lot of research on this reasonable matter, and in some places they are ahead of us, so I decided to compile it.

Since everyone thinks this book is acceptable, why not ask a few gentlemen to correct it and compile a textbook suitable for different students."

The people in the cabinet were naturally happy.

Ye Xianggao had experience in this area, so they decided to make him the editor-in-chief and let the Hanlin Academy assist in compiling the teaching materials.

After compilation and approval, it will be printed into textbooks for all levels.

Zhu Youxiao added: "I think the words of saints should be strengthened in the primary school textbooks, especially now that business is more prosperous.

This word of faith is really the foundation of business.

Therefore, the primary school textbooks for the next school year should also include I need to ask Master Ye to add a little more.”

This is naturally a reciprocation for Ye Xianggao and others' admiration for logic.

Promoting the words of saints is what Confucians like to do most.

The emperor's words make everyone happy.

People in ancient times didn't like businessmen.

The most important thing was that they felt that businessmen were hypocritical.

Now your majesty is doing this, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

It not only promotes the saint's letter, but also restrains the hypocrisy of businessmen.

Bi Ziyan said: "Your Majesty, in last year's taxation, the agricultural tax was reduced too much, so the actual income was about 6.5 million yuan, and the commercial tax was about 9.5 million yuan.

The two items totaled 1,000 yuan.

Six million yuan, 10% is 1.6 million yuan, and this year’s tax revenue is expected to be huge The amount increased to 20 million yuan, and that 10% was 2 million yuan.

At the end of last year, the Ministry of Household Affairs only had a surplus of 3 million yuan, which would still be too much. .

Can we reduce it a little and increase it after the financial situation gets better?”

Zhu Youxiao shook his head and said: "That's inappropriate.

Military expenditures have always been the bulk of Ming Dynasty's tax expenditures.

I will continue to reduce the local army on a large scale, which can squeeze out some money.

Although the salary of the Guards is an expenditure of the imperial court, But in the past few years, I plan to focus on defense, so military expenditures should also be It's limited.

And in the past two years, we can have a surplus of 3 million on the basis of major road repairs and dredging of rivers.

Even if we add the 2 million education expenses this year, we can ensure that education will remain profitable by the end of this year.

Things are actually the foundation of the country.

If you say it is 10%, it cannot be reduced by one cent. " Bi Ziyan said, "Your Majesty, this year the Ministry of Agriculture will overhaul the fields, and the increase in this area will be more than the savings in military expenses.

Moreover, the Ministry of Household Affairs also has to prepare reserves for purchasing grain at a fair price every year.

This is not a small amount of money."

It can be solved.

Now that the Ministry of Education suddenly needs so much money, I am really helpless.”

Zhu Youxiao said: "Borrow, the court has no money, so just ask the bank to borrow.

There is plenty of money in the bank."

Bi Ziyan opened his eyes wide and said: "Your Majesty, how unbecoming is it for the imperial court to borrow money from a bank?"

Zhu Youxiao said: "What does that matter?

It's not that I won't repay it.

Moreover, the borrowed money can be used as collateral for next year's taxes.

The bank doesn't have to worry about the account department not being able to repay the money.

There is interest to collect, so I don't believe that Li Zhizao will not borrow it." you."

Bi Ziyan felt deeply frustrated.

This bank also belonged to the imperial court, and it actually lent money to the imperial court.

What was going on?

He said, "Your Majesty, the interest rate for one year has reached 36%."

Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said: "There are two ways.

One is because the loan from the Account Department is large, and the bank can reduce the interest appropriately. 12% a year is the minimum.

The second is to issue bonds.

"Bonds can be divided into one-year, two-year, three-year or even five-year terms.

You just need to set the interest rate a little higher than the bank deposit interest."

Bi Ziyan immediately said: "I choose the second method."

Zhu Youxiao said: "Then this matter requires cooperation with the bank and the Printing Research Institute.

The Printing Research Institute has developed a stable and beautiful five-color overprint, and there is no way to imitate it on the market.

You can go to them for this matter, but I have I need to make it clear to you first.

It’s fun to issue these bonds, but it’s not so fun to pay them back.

So you have to think clearly, do what you can, and don’t issue indiscriminately.”

Bi Ziyan said: "This old minister can save it.

But what should the name of this bond be?"

Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said: "This bond is to help farmers purchase affordable grain.

Of course it can be called an agricultural bond, so you have to cooperate with Yang Lian's Ministry of Agriculture.

If you think it is to subsidize the lack of education funds, It can also be called an education bond, then you have to cooperate with Yang He’s Ministry of Education.
