For this reason, Wu Tian summoned Wu Yong again.

"Teacher, you have also seen that after Liang Guo implemented the first two economic policies I mentioned, the national power has greatly increased. It not only reversed the shortage of domestic money, food and equipment, but also attracted trade from surrounding countries. However, Liang Guo developed rapidly. , but the required talents are far from enough.”

After Wu Tian said this, he looked at Wu Yong silently.

Wu Yong knew clearly that Wu Tian was waiting for him to make a statement.

He pondered for a moment. He had noticed the earth-shaking changes in Liang Guo in the past six months.

According to Liang Guo's development momentum, Liang Guo's economy will be prosperous five years later, far better than the previous dynasty.

But development depends on talents, and scholars who can read the Four Books and Five Classics but have no power to restrain them cannot adapt to this dynasty at all.

Thinking of this, Wu Yong no longer persisted.

He sighed, and cupped his hands towards Wutian: "Your Majesty, the minister was wrong before, but Your Majesty is right. Liang Guo needs talents, and it needs talents who can understand natural science."

Wu Tian was delighted to see that Wu Yong was also on his side.

Wu Yong is a grand teacher and once a teacher. He is an idol in the hearts of Liang Guo scholars.

If he didn't support him to change the teaching in the school, the scholars of Liang Guo would definitely not agree, and they might rise up against him together, and then everything he did would be in vain.

Now that Wu Yong has agreed, there will be less resistance to the next reform.

"Since the grand master also agrees with my opinion, then I will leave the affairs of the school to you."

Wu Yong nodded and said, "I am willing to serve His Majesty, but the new school must have textbooks and someone who understands natural science and technology."

For this point, Wu Tian had already thought of it.

He smiled slightly and said: "I have already ordered Brother Tang Long to cultivate materials, textbooks and teaching talents. Where are you going, tell Brother Tang Long, and I will tell you to choose the teacher of the new school. know what to do."

Wu Yong nodded and left.

Soon, the new school opened, but not many people were willing to come to learn.

Seeing this phenomenon, Wu Tian frowned slightly, and then disguised himself to mix among the scholars.

During the conversation with them, I learned that this group of scholars only wanted to be officials, and they were not interested in studying natural science at all.

To learn these things is at best to be as skilled as a craftsman, which is nothing compared to being an official and honoring one's ancestors.

After understanding the thoughts of the scholars, Wu Tian returned to the palace and issued two edicts overnight.

An edict is that anyone who has learned natural technology in the new school will be awarded a corresponding official position according to his contribution to the railway and the number of years, up to the first rank.

Another edict states that the candidates for admission to the new school are not limited to scholars. Anyone who has reached the age of [-] and aspires to serve the court, regardless of gender, can enter the new school to study, and all expenses will be borne by the court.

As soon as these two edicts came out, the entire Liang Kingdom exploded. Those who had previously dismissed the new school now wanted to enter the new school.

Those children of peasants who lived at the bottom and reached the age of [-] received the news, immediately saw hope and signed up enthusiastically.

However, since there are only a hundred teaching talents, it cannot satisfy the tens of millions of students in Liang Guo.

In the end, 3000 people were selected comprehensively from thousands of people to study in the new school.

However, as time went on, the number of people entering the new school increased year by year, and finally exceeded one million.

Since then, a complete set of economic development system of Liang State has been completed.

In order to ensure the smooth and healthy operation of this system, Wu Tian is determined to reform the administration of officials.

If any good system does not have a corresponding monitoring system, loopholes will easily appear after decades, allowing people to take advantage of loopholes.

Liang Guo's current bureaucratic system is almost copied from the Song Empire, so it can be said that there is nothing new.

In order to maintain Liang Guo's excessive stability, he didn't correct some potential things too much.

The biggest flaw in the old bureaucratic system was that the clan held an important position in the imperial court.

In Liang's country, most of the officials in the Liangshan series occupy the first and second ranks.

But not all of these official positions are in charge. For example, the grand master is an honorary official position.

Wu Yong is still the prime minister who holds the real power.

Among the third-rank and fourth-rank official positions, the number of Liangshan clans is not as large as that of the clans left over from Liang Guo.

For example, the Li family in Tokyo occupies nearly half of the official positions among the third-rank officials, and most of them are in charge of Liang Guohuang's merchants.

After Wutian established the bank, the Li family didn't seem to come out to oppose it, but they secretly colluded with private banks, even underground banks, and competed with Wutian's bank for interests.

The Xu family in Tokyo mainly occupies the fourth-rank official and is in charge of iron mines.

The iron ore on Liang Guo's books is far lower than the reality, and the Xu family relies on this to resell the iron ore to illegal private businesses for profit.

Relying on their deep network of connections in Tokyo, these families opposed the court of the Liang Kingdom openly and secretly to seek huge profits.

Wu Tian didn't have much energy to manage them due to the attack of Liao and Wa.

Later, because of their eagerness to develop Liang's economy, they turned a blind eye to them.

Now, Liang Guo's economic development has returned to normal, far exceeding the power of the clan, Wu Tian decided to do it.

On that day, Wu Tianxia issued an imperial decree to invite the heads of the powerful clans Li, Xu and Wang in Tokyo to a banquet in the palace.

When the three masters heard that Emperor Liang invited them to the banquet, they were not to mention how happy they were. They happily changed their clothes and went to the palace.

After entering the main hall, the three masters felt that something was wrong.

He said he was inviting them to a banquet, but there was nothing in the court hall.

Just when the three masters were puzzled, many soldiers rushed in outside the door and surrounded them.

"What are you doing?"

The three masters were surprised and called out loudly.

Wu Tian walked into the court.

Seeing Wu Tian, ​​the three masters immediately shouted: "Your Majesty, I don't know what mistake I made, how will Your Majesty trick me to come here?"

Wu Tian stared at the three masters, and sneered: "You still dare to ask me. Don't you know how much money you have embezzled from Liang Guo all these years?"

The three masters glanced at each other, and the next moment they seemed to understand that Wu Tian was going to clean up their clan!
