"However, if you want to manage such a large territory well, you need a lot of talents!"

Ying Zheng thought for a long time and asked a question again. The reason why he has always been thirsty for talents is that there is a real shortage of talents in Da Qin.

Nowadays, many local officials in the Da Qin Empire, even at the county level The chief officials are all military generals who have been converted into civil servants.

Although they are loyal to the Qin Dynasty, their ability to govern a party is uneven, and some can even make people laugh or cry.

For example, there is a drought in one county in Julu County, and the county magistrate He made a report and applied for court support.

As a result, when Zhi Su Nei Shi asked how much food was needed, neither the county magistrate nor the county guard could figure it out clearly. In the end, Nei Shi Teng had to send a Taicang order to assist.

Some officials even wrote the"Qin Dynasty""Law" cannot be memorized, and cases are tried based on subjective judgment, which leads to many disputes.

There are too many to mention.

Meng Yi also nodded with deep understanding.

As a royal censor and one of the three ministers and nine ministers, Meng Yi Yi actually assisted Ying Zheng in handling many court affairs, and he was also the one who got cheated the most.

"If you want to have more talents, you have to develop cultural affairs, but this is not easy in Da Qin!"

Meng Yi smiled bitterly.

Fusu frowned.

After searching in his mind for a while, he also understood the problem that Da Qin has today.

That is, although a hundred schools of thought are allowed to contend, it does not restrict the spread of culture.

But ordinary people want It is not easy to learn knowledge.

The first problem is the material problem of recording text.

There is no cheap paper nowadays, and the only things used to record text are bamboo slips and silk. Silk is very expensive and can even be used as currency. Use.

Although bamboo slips are easy to obtain, if you want to record text, you need to go through multiple processes, and the price is not acceptable to ordinary people.

Moreover, bamboo slips have a very serious problem.

That is, they are too heavy.

Da Qin has a way to describe people's knowledge The extraordinary idiom is called"learn to be rich in five carts".

But in reality, according to Fusu's understanding, the bamboo slips filled with five carts can only record a dozen or two hundred thousand words in total.

In later generations, it will only be a book. The number of words in thicker books.

Therefore, if you want to develop literary affairs and cultivate talents, the improvement of writing materials is the first priority.

But this is not difficult for Fusu.

In his previous life, Fusu once traveled At that time, he visited the process of making rice paper by hand. With his strong memory ability, he could quickly recall it.

Just by improving the material ratio, he could make cheap and easy-to-use paper.

Printing is even more convenient. It’s simple.

The principle of movable type printing is actually very simple, and it is easier to master than papermaking.

What really puts Fusu in trouble is the current education system of Da Qin.

What Da Qin is implementing now is the"proposed by Li Si""Take officials as teachers and use the law as teaching." To put it simply, a group of officials from the imperial training department who are familiar with the Qin Code publicize the contents of the"Qin Code" to the people of Qin and grassroots officials, and strengthen legal education.

In addition, In addition, there are no government-run schools in Daqin, only some private schools opened by Confucianists. If the people of Daqin want to learn knowledge, they can only go to schools run by Confucianists, or become apprentices in hundreds of schools.

But now most people even They don't have enough to eat, and even if they can afford the tuition, they don't have many chances to be favored by hundreds of companies.

As for merchants, they can afford the tuition.

However, due to various reasons, the status of merchants in Daqin is extremely low. Even if they learn knowledge, they can't It is difficult to enter the court, so there is no need to delve into knowledge for it.

Moreover, scholars these days are all studying the six arts of the gentleman, and they always wear swords when they go out.

Businessmen, who are lowly people in their eyes, are No matter how much money you give them, they will not give up for five buckets of rice.

The reason why Ying Zheng allowed many generals who came up through the military merit and title system to become civilians is actually a helpless move.

Although many of these people are cheating, but It's better than nothing, right?

Moreover, these people are all vested interests of Da Qin. Their interests are tied to Da Qin, and their loyalty can basically be guaranteed.

The two of them are today's Da Qin. Although there is no such thing as the later Han Dynasty, it is enough to make even the emperor afraid. Although he is a wealthy family, the channels for studying and advancing are actually in the hands of the powerful.

If you want to touch this big cake, it will inevitably cause a backlash from these powerful people, and the remnants of the Six Kingdoms will definitely not miss this opportunity to attack the court.

Fortunately, the Great Qin at this moment is still a time when hundreds of schools of thought are contending.

Although Ying Zheng valued Legalism more, he did not exclude other schools of thought.

There are many Confucian students in the imperial court, and there are also many Mohist disciples in the future Shaofu.

Moreover, Confucianism at this moment has not yet become the corrupt Confucianism of later generations.

Due to Ying Zheng's character, the Confucianism officially advocated by Da Qin at this moment is actually the Gongyang School.

This Gongyang school of thought advocates an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, and a series of fights will begin immediately after a disagreement.

In addition, the more popular ones include Yin-Yang, Taoist, strategist, farmer, medical practitioner, etc.

Among them, the Yin and Yang family believed that the replacement of the fire virtues of the Zhou Dynasty by the water virtues of the Qin Dynasty was in compliance with God's will due to the Five Elements Theory proposed by Zou Yan. They were very valued by Ying Zheng. Although they were not as influential as the Chaotang, they had considerable influence.

The Strategist family had produced outstanding disciples like Su Qin and Zhang Yi. They should have been famous for a while, but unfortunately they had too few disciples, so they temporarily faded away from the court.

Farmers who study the twenty-four solar terms and farming seasons and doctors who study medical skills belong to the practical school and also have a certain influence in Da Qin.

Although many doctrines are not taken seriously by the court, they are working hard to research and promote their own doctrines, hoping to gain more people's recognition and pass on the doctrines.

These people are collectively called alchemists.

Although there are scum such as Xu Fu who rely on pills to fool them, there are also many who have real talents and knowledge.

And they are all eager to enter the court, so that their doctrines can be recognized by more people and become the mainstream among hundreds of schools of thought.

This is a good opportunity for Fusu.

In his opinion, these hundreds of schools of thought can survive because they actually have certain advantages.

What Da Qin officials should do is not just to focus on foreign Confucianism and internal law, but to take the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought, constantly refine and summarize them, and take the essence and discard the dross!

If he can make disciples from hundreds of schools of thought be used by him, he will not have to worry about the great development of literary affairs.

And for the court, what needs to be done is to let the right people do the right things.

For example, the Mohist family, the imperial court is not suitable for you, so you should just stick to the promising scientific research major of invention and creation.

It is also excellent for doctors to study medical books, treat illnesses and save people, and accumulate virtue and do good deeds.

Farmers, all of whom have mastered certain knowledge about solar terms and farming, will be a powerful help in promoting new crops in Fusu in the future.

What Fusu has to do is to convince Ying Zheng and give all schools of thought a fair platform to let them develop their talents.

"Father and son have thought of a way!"

Fusu said with a smile.

"tell me the story!"

Ying Zheng showed a hint of interest on his face.

He wanted to see what kind of solution the future successor of Da Qin could come up with.

Can he be trusted to entrust the huge empire of Da Qin to him?..................................................................................................................................
