"I feel very conflicted?" Yi Zhizu took a cigarette from the coffee table and gave it to him, then lit one, and then changed his mind, "What was the slogan he proposed at the beginning of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's uprising? All men in the world are brothers, all women in the world are sisters, everyone has clothes and food, everyone has food, everywhere is even, and everywhere is warm. Has this done?"

After hearing this, Feng Yunshan and Shi Dakai were both worried. Since the Taiping Army was crowned king of Yong'an, the concept of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has become increasingly strict, and there is no equality at all.

Seeing the two people, Yi contentedly said slowly: "As early as the Yong'an system, I no longer had any hope for the Taiping Army, because I knew that even if the Taiping Army could overthrow the Qing court, it would be just a different person to be the emperor.

You're welcome to say that Hong Xiuquan is not a good emperor, and in my opinion, he is far from comparable to the emperor of the Qing court. You may not like to hear this, but this is a fact. As far as the autocratic feudal dynasty is concerned, the Qing court has achieved its ultimate goal. Another dynasty may not be able to do better than the Qing Dynasty."

After hearing these words, Feng Yunshan and Shi Dakai's faces were so gloomy that water dripped out. Shi Dakai said coldly: "The Qing court is so good, why are people still living in poverty?"

"Natural disasters and man-made disasters, internal and external troubles." Yi Zhizu said without rushing: "This is a situation that every dynasty will encounter in the decline and demise stages. The Qing court was even more unlucky and caught up with the era of major changes that had not been seen in three thousand years. It is already very good to be able to maintain it to this point."

Shi Dakai said dissatisfiedly: "If Yuan Qi had not strongly supported him, the Qing court would have been destroyed."

"The Wing King's words are wrong. Yuan Qi has always been a gravedigger in the Qing court." Yi Zhizu smiled and said, "Since the end of Daoguang, disasters have been caused by many years in the north and south of the Yangtze River. Yuan Qi has always been actively providing disaster relief. However, Yuan Qi has always focused on Jiangnan and Jiangbei. There are few reliefs for Guangxi, so you don't realize it. You two don't think that worshiping God will be in Guangxi. Yuan Qi didn't notice it at all?"

After hearing this, Feng Yunshan was stunned and recalled carefully that Yuanqi had never provided relief to Guangxi. This really doesn't make sense. Guangdong is the foundation of Yuanqi. Guangxi is adjacent to Guangdong. Logically, Yuanqi cannot be indifferent to the disasters in Guangxi, which is obviously unreasonable.

Thinking of this, he looked bitter, "Shopkeeper Yi Da has never been kind to us, but what I don't understand is, did Shopkeeper Yi Da have been optimistic about worshiping God's religion from the beginning?"

Yi Zhizu naturally would not tell the truth to him. He smiled and said, "I think it is Guangxi. One is the mountains and the emperor is far away. Moreover, the situation in Guangxi is complicated, the people are strong, and the imperial court's troops in Guangxi are also weak."

Feng Yunshan no longer knew what to say. Now he finally understood why Yuan Qi had set his sights on the God-worshiping Cult from the very beginning. It turned out that Yuan Qi had set his sights on Guangxi early in the morning. Thinking that he had worked hard for more than ten years but was making wedding dresses for others, he couldn't tell what it felt.

Shi Dakai asked, "What does the major changes that have not happened in three thousand years mean?"

"Three thousand years of feudal monarchy and autocratic regime - that is, feudal monarchy, the feudal dynasty has come to an end." Yi Zhizu said slowly: "After the Qing Dynasty, there will be no more emperors in China!"

After the Qing Dynasty, there was no more emperor in China! Feng Yunshan and Shi Dakai were confused, with a look of shock and confusion. After a while, Feng Yunshan spoke: "Is it like the West? Isn't England still an empress? France also has an emperor?"

"The situation of each country has its own countries, and it cannot be generalized." Yi Zhizu said without any haste: "Besides, the Queen of England and Napoleon III of France are very different from the emperors of our country."

After a pause, he continued: "When you were in Changsha, you read newspapers a lot. The ideas of equality, freedom, human rights, democracy, etc. promoted by Yuan Qi were to oppose feudal monarchy. However, for the monarchy, the three thousand-year autocratic feudal dynasty in China should end. Only by abolishing the monarchy can we achieve equality for everyone, "all men in the world are brothers, and all women in the world are sisters." Only by eliminating the hierarchy of feudal etiquette can we eliminate human rights, freedom, and democracy!"

Shi Dakai hesitated and said, "As the saying goes, birds do not fly without heads, snakes do not do without heads. A country with a large size will not be able to fly without emperor..."

"There is no emperor in America, and the Queen of England is just a decoration." Yi Zhizu said: "In the future, political parties will replace the emperor to manage and govern the country, and it will still be centralized. However, this country is no longer a world of one family, but a world of all people, and the people are the masters of the country.

Only in this way, the slogan that Taiping Army originally proposed, "All men in the world are brothers, women in the world are sisters, everyone has clothes and clothes, everyone has food to eat, they are even everywhere, and keep warm everywhere."

Shi Dakai's eyes gradually lit up, "Can this slogan be realized?"

"Yes!" Yi said contentedly: "Think about it, without emperors, princes and nobles, and without bannermen, people are not divided into different levels, officials, gentlemen and people, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, men and women, and everyone is equal. What will it be like?"

Shi Dakai was excited when he heard this and asked one after another: "Why should the Qing court survive for ten or twenty years?"

"The conditions are immature." Yi Zhizu said slowly: "The three thousand years of feudal monarchy, Confucianism has been deeply rooted. The ideas of equality, freedom, democracy, human rights, etc. must be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it requires a long-term publicity and a process of acceptance and transformation. In addition, I also hope to overthrow the Qing court at the lowest cost to avoid long-term internal divisions and wars.

Another point is that from the perspective of the international situation, now is an era similar to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, where heroes compete for hegemony. As the largest country in Asia, we cannot stay out of it regardless of whether we want it or not.

Our industry started late, lagging behind the West for 80 years, with a weak industrial foundation, and the industrial scale is even more different from the West. The most urgent task is to pool the whole country's efforts to develop industry, rather than internal friction. At this time, Yuan Qi raised his troops, and it is very likely that a long-term large-scale civil war would break out, and Britain, France and other countries might also be involved. Even if they can eventually overthrow the Qing court, they will inevitably be devastated."

After hearing what happened, Feng Yunshan couldn't help but sigh that it was really not unfair to defeat the Taiping Army at Yuan Qi. Not to mention the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan, even if the Taiping Army kings were tied together, they might not be the opponent of Yishishi. No wonder they were played with by others.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "Bangladesh, what is the manager Yi Da's idea?"

This is the real purpose of the two people coming to Shanghai? Yi Zhizu knocked the ashes and looked at Shi Dakai and said, "What does the Wing King think of Bangladesh?"

Shi Dakai said without hesitation: "Bangladesh connects British India and Myanmar, Tibet to the north and the sea to the south. It is both a critical place and a strategic place. It can be regarded as a battleground for military strategists. Is the shopkeeper Yi Da really planning to let us establish a country in Bangladesh?"

"Bangladesh's geographical location is extremely important." Yi Zhizu said: "Occupy Bangladesh can not only curb the British's expansion into Southeast Asia and Tibet, but also greatly consolidate Tibet and Myanmar. I will not hide it from you. If the Taiping Army is willing to surrender after overthrowing the Qing court, it is naturally the best.

If you are unwilling to surrender, Yuanqi can provide the Taiping Army with a large amount of Minni guns and ammunition to support the Taiping Army's expansion to the west. Yuanqi needs to use the Jamna River as the boundary. The Taiping Army will establish a country in the area where it expands to the west. Moreover, Yuanqi will give strong support, but... the Taiping Army needs to do a small favor."

Because of the important geographical location of Bangladesh, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had always been suspicious of the establishment of Bangladesh that Yishisui agreed. After hearing about the great victory of Yuanqi's new army in Tianjin and Beijing, Feng Yunshan and Shi Dakai came to test the words. After hearing these words, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Feng Yunshan hurriedly said: "Shopkeeper Yi Da ordered that the Taiping Army would never shirk responsibility if he could do anything within his ability."

"It's not a difficult thing." Yi Zhizu said slowly: "As the saying goes, if one is not a race, his heart will be different. Since Bangladesh is a strategic place, after occupying it, there is no reason to give up again. Our country has a large population, and the most deficit is population. I only have territory."

This is to kill the local natives of Bangladesh! Feng Yunshan was shocked. This was the first time he had seen Yi Quezue's cruel side. He did not hesitate at all and immediately said: "This is indeed not difficult. When the delivery is made, I guarantee that I will give Yi Da a Bangladesh that is uninhabited for thousands of miles."

"Okay!" Yi Zhizuji said first: "In one year, I will provide the Taiping Army with 20,000 Minni guns and a large amount of ammunition, and can also help you form two artillery regiments."

Shi Dakai hurriedly said: "Can you provide the latest muskets, cannons and bullets?"

He was preparing for the American Civil War. Yi Shizu refused without thinking: "I'm sorry, Yuan Qi himself has not been able to completely change the latest musket artillery and bullets. It will be delayed at least a few years before it can be provided to you."

Shi Da smiled, "A few years later, we missed the best opportunity to expand westward."

"The British army is defeated and cannot stop you from expanding westward." Yi Zhizu said slowly: "However, your expansion must be limited. Don't underestimate the British's importance to India. It is best to stop at the right time, and then negotiate with the British to draw the boundary. The British's desire for possession of territory is not very strong, they focus on trade."

Lin Meilian came in and reported: "The shopkeeper, the banquet is ready."

"Go and invite Manager Yan." Yi Zhizu stood up after giving instructions and said with a smile: "Let's have a meal and chat..."

"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, and see Yuanqi's latest teacher assessment and promotion system!"

"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers, Yuanqi promotes new learning, regardless of cost!"

"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, new students, and provide care for the elderly and see them to the end!"

Early in the morning, the crisp sound of newspaper children selling newspapers rang throughout the streets and alleys of Shanghai and various docks and stations. In recent days, the government and the country have been paying attention to the implementation of new learning. When Yuanqi heard that he had launched the latest teacher assessment and promotion system, he naturally attracted interest.

Not only Shanghai, but also newspapers in all Southeastern provinces and Nanyang provinces have published Yuanqi’s latest teacher assessment and promotion system, which is related to new school. In addition to the timely publication of northern newspapers, they are reprinted in time. The government and the country are shaking and there are many discussions. The focus of the discussion is mainly three, with a minimum monthly salary of 6 yuan silver dollars; the assessment and promotion and welfare are linked to teaching experience; those who have been teaching for thirty years can retire and receive a salary of secondary teachers every month until they die.

Yuanqi has implemented a new study. All the teachers from elementary school to middle school to university adopt the recruitment system, which is a big innovation. Now it has increased the minimum monthly salary to six yuan. Not counting other medical holiday benefits, but just salary, it is 72 yuan a year. This is more than fifty taels of silver, which is enough to support a family of five with decent appearance!

The assessment promotion and welfare benefits are linked to teaching experience, that is, the longer the teaching experience, the higher the salary, the easier it is to advance. What is more shocking is that those who have been teaching experience for thirty years can retire and receive a salary of a secondary teacher every month until they die.

This means that as long as you become a new student, you can ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing for your whole life. What is even more exciting is that junior high school graduates over 18 can go to the assessment for application. The news spreads, and junior high school graduates are excited and rushed to the nearby new student to inquire about the situation.

Tangxiang Garden.

Prince Yi Zaitong put down the newspaper and sighed, "What is Yuan Qi trying to do? Force the court to death?"

"Don't say it's so ugly." Su Shun said: "The minimum monthly salary of Yuanqi's new student was originally five yuan. These measures are just to encourage new graduates to teach in new students. What does it have to do with the court?"

"Why is it okay?" Wen Xiang said: "The southern provinces promote new learning by Yuanqi, and the northern provinces promote new learning. Who will pay for the money? This year it will cost hundreds of millions of yuan, and it will get bigger and bigger. Can the court spend a large sum of money every year to promote new learning?" Speaking of this, he raised his tone, "Yuanqi wants to get involved in the new learning in the north!"

"What's wrong with Yuan Qi paying money to promote new schools in northern provinces?" Mian Yu refuted: "The court has advanced and retreated talents, and in terms of fame and weaponry, why should we compete with Yuan Qi in promoting new schools? Even if the court pays money? All new students are hired from new schools opened by Yuan Qi!"

"Uncle Wu can see it thoroughly." Yi Xiao smiled and said, "There is no need for the court to compete with Yuan Qi. As long as the local Confucian teachings and teachings are always supervised, the court can save millions of silver dollars a year."

"This is more than one million silver dollars, at least two or three million, and it will increase year by year." Su Shun said: "Yuan Qi is obviously eager to promote new learning. The new learning in northern provinces may not be happy to take over this stolen thing. It is really worthy of Yuan Qi's money."

"I have been talking about Yiguocheng these days. There is no need to stay in Shanghai anymore and return to the capital tomorrow." Yi Xin said slowly. He knew very well that this was not a trivial matter. It involved fifty quotas in each province a year. The Qing Dynasty provinces were not willing to fall behind. Yi Zhishi's move was to prepare enough new students for each province.
