Chapter 1025 (2/2)

After talking about business, Gu Jiu dismissed Huang Qubing.

……

Liu Yu comes out of the small study next door.

With a smile on his face, he said the truth, ”others say that the Empress Dowager is kind, but his son feels that the Empress Dowager is cruel.”

Gu Jiu pointed to the chair and motioned him to sit down. ”Compared with your father, this palace is naturally merciful.”

Liu Yu said: ”30% of the year-end dividend is a lot of money. It's really cruel to punish so much money just because of a little mistake in the garden party. ”

Gu Jiu ha ha ha a smile, ”are you packing injustice for Huang Qubing?”

”Not at all! The son thought that the father and the emperor should learn from his mother's method and punish more money to fill the Treasury. It seems that the deterrent power is not enough for those courtiers who are more and more powerful in fighting. If we do not copy the family, the imperial edict alone will not achieve the purpose of frightening the people, but also waste human and financial resources. The only thing is that it has strengthened jinwuwei and made its reputation stink more and more on the street! ”

Gu Jiu smiles and shakes his head. ”You've got into the eye of money. How can every official who issues an imperial edict punish money. This is a dangerous idea. You have to correct it. ”

Liu Yu solemnly asked, ”why does the mother think that the son's idea is very dangerous?”

Gu Jiu also said seriously: ”when you look at money, as time goes on, your attitude towards people and things is to take money as a standard. When the time comes, he will become a rich man and become an official. If the poor man doesn't come, the world will be in chaos. Money is a good thing, but money can also blind your eyes, affect your judgment of things, and make you lose your way. You have to be alert to this idea and think twice a day. ”

”The son remembers the teachings of his mother. In this way, there are many considerations for the father and emperor not to punish officials for money and money. ””Of course! How can the imperial court's law be measured by money. Are those officials who have been ordered to jail by imperial edict, pay a sum of money and let go of the past? Isn't it absurd! Fine money can only be a supplementary means, not a necessary means. ”

”My son understands! Thank you, empress mother

”Tell me, what do you understand?”

”The mother's punishment for Huang's illness was not for money, but for beating him up. At the same time, it was also to set up a model. Look at the mistakes made by Princess Pingyang's son-in-law. All of them have to pay to repair the school. How can other people survive? ”

Gu Jiu laughed, full of praise, ”you're right. This palace really intends to set up a model. Huang Qubing's identity is valuable enough. The prince in law of Pingyang, the former family order of Shaofu, and the chief manager of Wenqing publishing house, are very eye-catching. Punishing him can serve as a good model. In the future, your father and emperor can also follow this method, fine a sum of money and build a school. In this way, the courtiers have no reason to accuse your father of taking money. After all, building schools is of great merit. ”

Liu Yu repeatedly nodded, ”money is a good thing, but it is also called copper stink. It can be seen that people love money and dislike it at the same time. If you want to make money more fragrant, you can't blame it. It's better to have a relationship with scholars. School is the best carrier. ”

”Children can be taught!” Gu Jiu said with approval.

Liu Yu asked, ”the Empress Dowager once said that free education in primary schools should be promoted in Dazhou. When will it start?”

Gu Jiu said: ”let's start with Huang Qubing! One county, one county promotion, step by step steadily. What this palace wants is that after a school is built, it can stand on the earth for 20, 50, 100 years It's not the death of the people. Then we can't rush to build schools.

Although this is unfair to children in other remote areas and makes them miss the opportunity to enjoy free education, there is no way to do it. If we want to promote free education, we have to take time to explore and find a workable model to promote it.

Instead of building schools in droves and having no money to support their children's studies. Once the school is abandoned, everyone's confidence will be hit from top to bottom. It's going to be ten times more difficult to restart the project again. ”

”My son wants to do the free school project.”

Liu Yu suddenly said that, Gu Jiu was surprised.

She frowned. ”Are you sure you want to do this project?”

”My son wants to have a try.” Liu Yu said solemnly.

Gu Jiu frowned, ”tell me what you think.”

Liu Yu deliberated, ”the people's livelihood is so difficult that the poor students can hardly make a start because they lost to the officials' children from the enlightenment. The son checked the official files, not to mention the local government, but to the court and the capital officials. 80% of the officials came from official families or aristocratic families.

The strength of the family supports them to study. After they become officials, they naturally want to repay the family. This forms the local power. The stronger the stronger, the weaker the weaker.

Even though his family was poor in his early years, he also enjoyed the family's support and personal connections when he was a child, so that he could learn from a famous teacher from the beginning of enlightenment. Although he had a clear relationship with his family, the Yang family could still rely on his name and become more and more powerful in the local area. Ten years later, he would become a powerful and powerful family.

There is also Mr. Zhou Shian. In his early years, he was indeed poor. However, because he was born in the Zhou family of Chuzhou, he was destined to receive the highest education since he was a child. He saw all kinds of rare out of print books, as well as the comments and experiences of literary masters on the subset of classics and history. This is an educational resource that the poor children can't enjoy all their lives. ”

Gu Jiu nodded, ”what is the situation of the remaining 20% officials?”
