Chapter 398: Universal Compulsory Education

Although Zhu Youxiao does not need to deal with government affairs in every detail, and even many government affairs do not need to be approved, the following departments can handle it according to policies and principles. However, Zhu Youxiao cannot ignore anything. In this way, the officials below will think that the emperor is good at fooling him, and no matter how good the system is, it will be messed up.&1t;/p>

Therefore, it is necessary to send some personnel to the local area to inspect and often ask about the work of various departments. These behaviors are nothing more than to maintain the normal operation of the system.&1t;/p>

But compared to the past when I had to make a profit, it was much easier.&1t;/p>

Time gradually passed another year, and the eleventh year of hopeful apocalypse gradually arrived, and the court's fiscal and tax revenue increased to a scale of 700 million yuan.&1t;/p>

How high fiscal revenue can be achieved or the results brought by the reform? Commercial taxes and agricultural taxes in various provinces in the new policy area have been collected. At the same time, customs import and export tariff revenue has also increased rapidly. In addition, the dividends paid by major state-owned enterprises have increased.&1t;/p>

For the new year, the people in all parts of the new policy are generally full of hope, not like the past, and there is no hope.&1t;/p>

In the tenth year of the Tianqi period, the imperial court completed a large scale in the construction of water conservancy projects. Six water conservancy facilities projects in various provinces were completed. The flood problem in various river basins was reduced. At the same time, the agricultural irrigation area was greatly improved, and the disaster resistance was greatly increased.&1t;/p>

In terms of road construction, highway systems in various northern provinces have been formed, provincial-level highways are fully built, while prefecture-county-level highways and prefecture-county-level highways are being built everywhere.&1t;/p>

Although railway construction has begun now, highways are still useful, and the efficiency of the carriage is quite good.&1t;/p>

Even in World War II, many countries were still using ox carts and horse carts to transport combat supplies to the front line.&1t;/p>

However, after the large-scale construction of the railway, the highway will not be so profitable. However, the construction of the railway is not achieved overnight. It will take several years to build a rough railway trunk line.&1t;/p>

The State Administration of Highway Construction may face certain losses in the future, but the court must also buy such losses.&1t;/p>

The construction of urban public facilities in various provinces in the new policy has also been completed, and the city walls are basically no longer built.&1t;/p>

Many towns are expanding due to the influx of population. The city walls can no longer keep up with the development of the times.&1t;/p>

In addition, the threat from the alien race in the north has been greatly eliminated, leaving only Mongolia, whose economy was kidnapped by the Ming commodity economy, and there is little possibility of external invasion. However, internally, the imperial court's control over the local area has been greatly enhanced after the reform.&1t;/p>

The establishment of township governments, coupled with the construction of telegrams and highways, and the railways have also begun to be built, and the control will be further strengthened. In addition, if there are natural disasters, the court will provide relief, there will be no turmoil in the local area under normal circumstances.&1t;/p>

At the same time, the armed forces of local governments have also been greatly enhanced. Each prefecture and county has an armed police force. Each province has a garrison brigade, and it can draw troops from the military region at any time. At this time, the northern provinces did not have the survival soil for thieves.&1t;/p>

As long as the thieves appear, they will be wiped out by the government. At the same time, those thieves have no place to cope with hungry people, and now there is no large-scale hungry people.&1t;/p>

Even the bandits and bandits lost their soil for survival after the imperial court strengthened local control and local armed forces.&1t;/p>

Internal and external troubles gradually subsided, and war was unlikely to occur. Most of the city walls had become decorations. However, these city walls were not demolished in large quantities, but some of the city walls were hindered from the planning. Most of the city walls were still preserved as "cultural relics".&1t;/p>

The land outside the city gate is included in urban planning, and most of these lands are in the hands of state-owned real estate companies.&1t;/p>

When planning urban construction, these state-owned real estate companies are involved openly. After all, they are state-owned enterprises, not private, and cannot form a collusion between officials and businessmen. It is absolutely legitimate.&1t;/p>

The construction of urban public facilities has greatly improved people's livelihood, which provides employment positions and is also a facility that the people can enjoy.&1t;/p>

People's livelihood is still very good under various policies. In particular, the prices in real estate are not inflated.&1t;/p>

Although the Ming Dynasty adopted the industrial zone model of later generations, industrial zones were not established in large quantities, so local governments did not have to spend a lot of money on opening industrial zones, and then they did not have to rely on selling commercial land to make a profit.&1t;/p>

In those cities where industrial zones are established, because industry itself is very profitable, if an industrial zone is established, local governments do not have to worry about losses, but instead do not need to repay commercial land to make a return. Another problem is that the land in the Ming Dynasty was privatized, so the operating model is different from later generations.&1t;/p>

In addition, the imperial court did not have much restrictions on the construction of private housing. People do not need to be house slaves for decades to buy houses.&1t;/p>

Nowadays, the price of ordinary real estate is maintained at the level of a worker's five-year income, and the facilities are relatively complete. If it is a private house, the price will be even lower.&1t;/p>

Under the reform, the people in northern provinces can achieve food and clothing, and can own housing through mortgage loans, which can be considered as living and working in peace.&1t;/p>

Although life may not be as easy as those rich people, most ordinary people are already satisfied with what kind of situation they are.&1t;/p>

Having a home can create a family, and having an income can support family life.&1t;/p>

The industrial exhibition in the decade of the Apocalypse was obviously very significant. The steel output has exceeded 30,000 tons, but the price has remained stable and has not increased with the rise in agricultural product prices. After the income of ordinary people increased, although the prices of agricultural products also increased accordingly, the overall consumption capacity of food was greatly improved, and the consumption capacity of industrial products was greatly improved.&1t;/p>

The number of factories has also increased significantly in the decade of Apocalypse, and the total number of high-pressure steam engines has increased to more than 8,000, including large steam engines.&1t;/p>

After some reforms in the entire provinces of the New Deal in the North, the needy groups were relieved, the income of ordinary people was increased, and the problem of food and clothing was basically solved.&1t;/p>

In terms of the fiscal budget for the 11th year of the Apocalypse, the military budget increased several years later, from more than 40 million yuan to 80 million yuan.&1t;/p>

The main reason is to improve the treatment of soldiers. With the increase in paper money in recent years, the purchasing power of Tianqi Baobao Bank has gradually declined. Although it has only depreciated slowly, the treatment of soldiers in the past has been a little unable to keep up, so the treatment of soldiers has been improved.&1t;/p>

At the same time, the military expenditure of the navy was increased. Now the Ming Dynasty has vigorously promoted the marine economy, and overseas colonies have extended to North America, and military expenditure must also increase.&1t;/p>

On the other hand, it is the research and update of equipment.&1t;/p>

The fiscal expenditure on education rose to 150 million yuan, and this money was invested in the next generation, and the proportion of fiscal revenue increased year by year. After discussion, the cabinet decided to include all new policies in the scope of compulsory education.&1t;/p>

That is to say, the northern provinces and overseas colonies will fully promote six years of compulsory education, and students must complete the primary school.&1t;/p>

The Ministry of Education also received an order from Zhu Youjiao that compulsory education must be strictly implemented, no matter what family or income it is. Whether it is a boy or a girl, she will enter school at the age of six or twelve, and must finish primary school before she can enter social work.&1t;/p>

At the same time, illegal employment of child labor is strictly prohibited. These primary school children can work during the summer vacation, but not during school hours.&1t;/p>

Moreover, if you hire child labor, you must apply for a report. Works with too much labor intensity and too harsh working environment cannot hire child labor.&1t;/p>

At the same time, the Ministry of Rites ordered the Ministry of Rites to increase publicity on compulsory education and ordered the Ministry of Education to carry out tough measures in various provinces. For parents who are stubborn and do not allow their children to go to school, they should take active persuasion and prescribe the right medicine. If the family is in trouble and unable to pay tuition, tuition can be waived. For parents who prefer boys over girls or think that going to school is useless, first persuade them. If the persuasion is ineffective, appropriate compulsory measures should be used to allow their children to go to school.&1t;/p>

Compulsory education cannot be fully popularized in a short while, so we need to increase publicity and fight tough battles. After all, in this era, it is more serious to favor boys over girls, and it is generally easier for boys to go to school. But girls may not be able to go to school anymore.&1t;/p>

In the past two years, I have encountered many such problems in promoting compulsory education in Beizhili. The Ministry of Education is quite experienced.&1t;/p>

The reason why girls are asked to go to school is mainly because with the development of the Industrial Revolution, female labor has gradually become important.&1t;/p>

Under the traditional model, women cannot go out and show their faces casually, but focus on taking care of their husbands and children at home. Of course, for ordinary people, women are actually very busy, usually spinning at home, making women's red women, and some things women can do to make money to subsidize their household income.&1t;/p>

However, such a model has gradually stopped using the needs of the industrial era.&1t;/p>

Women can also participate in industrial production. If they are completely confined to the family, then the waste of labor resources is very serious. For example, if there are no female workers in textile factories, they can only use male workers, but male workers may not be good at doing these tasks. Instead, they are suitable for some work with higher labor intensity. Even in most factories, female workers can use them to perform repetitive work content.&1t;/p>

Historically, during World War II, Americans mobilized men to fight wars, while the workers in the factory were replaced by a large number of female workers, and the war potential of the entire country increased rapidly.&1t;/p>

Therefore, improving the social status of women and liberating women is a trend of the times. It is in conflict with tradition, but it is unrealistic to improve feminism immediately.&1t;/p>

If people prefer boys over girls these days, it will be unrealistic for a while. Nowadays, the clan is very powerful, the concept of inheriting the family line is very strong, and the awareness of one's own and his family is very strong.&1t;/p>

At the same time, a man may die if he fights a war. In addition, men go out to do things, and when medical conditions are not met, and humans are not able to fight against nature, the abnormal mortality rate of men is relatively high. In addition, women are not easy to make money and have poor ability to support their families. These aspects are also important reasons for favoring boys over girls.&1t;/p>

However, with the development of productivity, the concept of favoring boys over girls will gradually change. First, productivity has increased, jobs have increased, and women can make money to support their families. Second, medical level and ability to fight against nature have improved, and abnormal mortality rates in men have decreased.&1t;/p>

At the same time, the improvement of transportation conditions, the married daughter can also go back to her parents' home often, etc., which will improve the social status of women, and the phenomenon of favoring boys over girls will change accordingly.&1t;/p>

It can be said that Chinese people are relatively easy to accept this aspect. In most areas of China in later generations, the phenomenon of favoring boys over girls was not so serious. Only some places with strong clan power, such as in southern Fujian and Guangdong, the phenomenon of favoring boys over girls will be more serious.&1t;/p>

Zhu You corrected the matter whether to start a feminist movement, but I would like to forget it. As long as the official is willing to hire female workers, for example, state-owned enterprises are willing to recruit a large number of female employees, the status of women will naturally become higher and higher. At the same time, some legal guarantees will be provided, and the atmosphere will naturally change over time.&1t;/p>

Raising seedlings to help grow, but too much is worse than too much.&1t;/p>

The man is Yang, the woman is Yin. The man is the outside, and the woman is the inside. The traditional model is not without benefits. Women can concentrate on taking care of the family and are the soul of a family.&1t;/p>

Improve feminism and encourage women to join work. In fact, it also harms the interests of small families and increases national interests.&1t;/p>

In fact, it is impossible for Chinese people to achieve true equality like the West in later generations. Instead, it is easy to embark on the road of ‘marketization’. When women are in the seller’s market, women’s status is very high. Just like China in later generations, men need to bear more obligations than women, rather than common common responsibility.&1t;/p>

To put it bluntly, resources are scarce, and women are also necessary resources in society. Once such necessary resources appear, they become scarce resources. Scarce resources have a seller's market. When demanders compete with each other, their status will naturally be raised.&1t;/p>

Just like India, in order to marry a higher caste, the female family is willing to pay the dowry, and the upper class influences the lower class and gradually forms a common trend.&1t;/p>

Chinese people can't understand the weird style of India, and Westerners can't understand the Chinese style.&1t;/p>

At this time, it is obviously unlikely that the trend of the future generations will be formed, nor will it be possible that the trend of the Indians will be formed.&1t;/p>

Because the Ming Dynasty obviously will not be too short of women nowadays, although it may prefer boys over girls, there will be fewer remaining women. However, there is a flow of resources overseas. As the saying goes, if you have enough, you will give in, and if you have insufficient, you will compete. When the competition environment is relatively loose, the status of women in the marriage process will not be too inflated.&1t;/p>

Another is that the excessive possession of female resources by the upper class will also cause great social conflicts. In fact, the gap between the rich and the poor will cause severe social conflicts. The big reason is also because of women.&1t;/p>

At this time, the Ming Dynasty introduced resources from overseas through the external commercial plundering model, which was equivalent to transferring internal contradictions to the outside and turning them into external contradictions.&1t;/p>

There are actually restrictions on the excessive possession of resources by the upper class. As the saying goes, things will turn back. Although the Ming Dynasty allowed to take concubines, it often means that there are relatively large restrictions. However, if the monogamy system is strictly implemented, the restrictions will become unlimited.&1t;/p>

Under the monogamy system, everyone is becoming mistresses and mistresses. When everyone gets used to it, they gradually become less ashamed and starts to laugh at the poor but not the prostitutes. And they usually work harder. The powerful and powerful have one family at home and have several outside. When they see the first group of wealthy people, we can do it too!&1t;/p>

On the contrary, under the system of allowing concubines, people are very despised by people as mistresses. Even if they are a concubine, it is not very glorious.&1t;/p>

Now after the reform of the North, only those who have reached the seventh rank or official position can be taken as concubines, or those who are over forty and have no children can be taken as concubines.&1t;/p>

Even if you take a concubine, you are still restrained. It is impossible to be as ridiculous as some officials in later generations keep dozens of mistresses. Even if you are an emperor, not every emperor will play with dozens of women. The so-called three thousand beauties in the harem is just a metaphor for the imaginary number of women. Some self-disciplined and dedicated emperors will not mess around at all.&1t;/p>

If the concubine system is placed on the surface, there will not be so many women willing to be kept. Men who keep mistresses at the same time are criticized by society. If they are merchants, the court will not take any punishment measures against merchants, but in the case of good life, it is generally impossible to be mistresses for others. Even if they are concubines, they are not willing to be concubines. Only when families are more difficult, one is willing to beat the other and the other is willing to be beaten, and the court has nothing to do with it, unless it is openly a few women living together and serving a husband, or registering twice, and trampling on the marriage law, that is the crime of bigamy, and the court can manage it.&1t;/p>

But for those groups with official positions and medals, the court can control it, and once it is exposed, it will be punished.&1t;/p>

Under such a system, the upper class's possession of resources in this area is limited and will not expand infinitely.&1t;/p>

As long as women do not cause too much social conflict, the people can start families and live normally, even if the gap between the rich and the poor is relatively large, the social conflict will not be too severe.&1t;/p>

Now after some reforms in the Ming Dynasty, the distribution of wealth has become more fair. In addition, it has begun to plunder external resources, and internal contradictions in the new policy areas have been eased a lot. Materialism and the mentality of hatred of the rich have declined, and are no longer as extreme as before.&1t;/p>

In general, the court is now encouraging women to join the work, and state-owned enterprises recruit a large number of female workers, and will even open women to take civil service examinations in the future. As long as women appear in official institutions and state-owned enterprises, they will naturally subtly influence the concepts of ordinary people. Official technicians and state-owned enterprises are treated better, and there are always people who are willing to come.&1t;/p>

Compulsory education is to enable workers to keep up with the pace of the industrial revolution. With the development of the industrial revolution, workers must at least be able to read and be competent for daily work. To allow women to participate in industrial production, they must also have a certain culture. It is also very necessary to send girls to schools for compulsory education.&1t;/p>

In the industrial era, the country did not require workers to know too much, so every industrialized country implemented different degrees of education on fooling the people. Therefore, it has a basic culture, and even many college students are actually basically no different from ancient illiteracy, and are still at the level of blind wandering. The essence of traditional culture is not much exposed to in the education system.   .org&1t;/p>

Every country has its own way of fooling the people, such as the American education system, whose main purpose is to cultivate qualified workers like factory-based methods and subtly instill various concepts that are beneficial to capitalists. And talents who can truly control the core power are cultivated from the descendants of capitalists.&1t;/p>

Zhu Youxiao was also an ordinary person before traveling through time, so he was not so unscrupulous. Although the six-year compulsory education had the goal of industrial development, he added some good things that could really change the height of children of ordinary classes in the writing of textbooks. He was to carry out education with a real educational attitude, and did not blindly consolidate the rule or cater to capital to fool the people.&1t;/p>

Another reason why I don’t mess with the fooling people is that I have watched over the rise and fall of civilization. The sufferings in China in later generations were mainly caused by the weakening of civilization. The huge pit left by the Qing Dynasty was filled for many years.&1t;/p>

There is no eternal dynasty, only relatively eternal civilization. The essential purpose of Zhu Youzhaozhan's education is not to force the Zhu family dynasty to last forever, but to revitalize this nation and allow this civilization to continue, and avoid invasion and oppression by foreign races.&1t;/p>

As long as the nation is revitalized and the internal civilization becomes more civilized, if the Zhu family emperor loses morality in the future, the process of regime change will no longer be as bloody and violent as before. Maybe it is a constitutional monarchy, maybe it is the emperor's abdication, at least it can escape unscathed.&1t;/p>

The most effective way to revitalize a nation is to show education. In order to show education, Zhu Youzao has invested a lot of money.&1t;/p>

He didn't know whether the large-scale education would add to the demise of the Ming Dynasty after stabilizing the Ming Dynasty, because reformers often paved the way for revolutionaries, but this did not affect Zhu Youxiao's philosophy. Whether the Ming Dynasty can continue is not so important. What is important is that this nation can continue.&1t;/p>
