Shengshi Mingjun

Liu Xun tried his best to maintain a smile: "As long as you are happy."

Yuan Shi became even more excited after hearing this, and couldn't help but kowtow three more times.

Other ministers also stood up and saluted Emperor Gaode.

Liu Xun: ...

Uh, "As long as you're happy" means helplessness and speechlessness, what do you understand?

Well, this is probably the generation gap between modern people and ancient people.

Liu Xun couldn't help looking at Si Jun, the gentle smile on Si Jun's face was the same as before.

Liu Xun's flustered heart immediately calmed down.

Although there were frequent accidents when meeting Yizhou officials for the first time, it seemed that the atmosphere was not bad.Just ignore this surprise.

But Liu Xun also remembered that he couldn't run the train anymore.

"I brought a lot of books from the palace, and I want to build a library. I leave this to you." Liu Xun got back to the topic.

Yuanshi was puzzled: "Library? Bookstore?"

Liu Xun said: "The library is not just a bookstore. In addition to selling books, it can also borrow and transcribe books in the library."

Liu Xun explained some of the functions of the modern library, and said: "Don't worry about not having enough books. All the books have already been engraved with printing plates, and printing can quickly make up enough books for the library. You only need to take out a It's the protocol."

Yuan Shi was puzzled again: "Printing?"

Liu Xun nodded and asked his attendants to hand over the meeting materials to the officials.

The officials looked at the detailed materials about the promotion of food, libraries and printing in surprise, thinking that it is really good to write such confidential information directly on paper?

But the handwriting of these materials is exactly the same, is this the so-called printing technique?That was really amazing.

After reading the materials, Yuan Shi finally understood what Liu Xun wanted him to do.

He excitedly said: "With printing technology, don't all the students in the world have books to read?!"

Liu Xun said: "It can only be said that books will be much cheaper. If students are interested, they can go to the library to borrow them. However, the maintenance and operation of the library requires a lot of investment. Currently, only one library can be built in Chengdu."

Liu Xun paused, and said: "After the library is established, I want to build a school palace relying on the library, and invite talents from all over the world to study and study in the palace."

The ministers were shocked.Has Your Majesty already thought of how to recruit talents?

Liu Xun said: "Although the road needs to be walked step by step, and the meal needs to be eaten bite by bite, it is also very important to have a specific plan. What goals should be achieved within a month, what goals should be achieved within a year, and what goals should be achieved within five years Goals, all of these need to be thought about by the noble family. I will throw bricks to attract jade first."

Liu Xun asked his attendants to deliver a stack of papers, which included short-term and long-term goals in terms of economy, culture, and military affairs: "Although I am in the capital, I have always cared about Yizhou. But after all, I am not as good as your family for Yizhou. I understand that the wisdom of one person is not as good as the collective efforts of all the noble families. These are just some models, and the noble families can write a plan based on this and submit it to me."

All the officials frowned.

What His Majesty said was unheard of and unbelievable.Moreover, can they change the goals His Majesty has set?

When they opened it, they found that there were no specific requirements in the plan given by Liu Xun, but a list of various problems.

Instead of revising or perfecting Liu Xun's plan, they wrote their own copy based on the questions Liu Xun wrote on it.

Everyone looked at Liu Xun with more searching eyes.

But in just one meeting, His Majesty gave them a lot of shocks.

Liu Xun joked: "Although I just joked that I was waiting for others to call, I went to the front of the battle to persuade you to surrender. You still have to think about how to deal with other people, such as issuing an edict."

All the officials said: "It's natural, don't worry, Your Majesty."

The corner of Liu Xun's mouth twitched.He was just making a joke to cheer up the atmosphere. These people looked so serious that he couldn't laugh himself.

The generation gap is scary.

Liu Xun sighed inwardly, he no longer expected the meeting to be full of joy and liveliness, and this group of people still started to discuss the contents raised by Liu Xun seriously and furiously.

Originally, they just thought that this time they were just meeting the emperor. Who knew that Liu Xun would directly rush over a lot of affairs, leaving them too late to test and study, and they saw that they had to put in intense work.

And these jobs, they don't want to sing a different tune.

Whether it is the promotion of new food that does not occupy fertile land and does not conflict with other food crops, or the promotion of printing, the establishment of libraries, and the recruitment of talented people from all over the world, they all feel that these things are reasonable.

Although officials from prominent families in some places vaguely felt that something was wrong, after careful consideration, they did not find anything wrong. In the end, they attributed it to the fact that Yizhou had made such a big move, and other forces would definitely take action.

However, if these two things can be accomplished, Yizhou's strength will definitely rise to a higher level, and even if they attack jointly, there is no need to worry.

Moreover, with His Majesty present and righteousness on their side, other forces may not be able to unite.

Even with the big banner of crusade against Yuze, those forces are still working independently, not to mention facing Yizhou, a bone that is much more difficult to crack than Yuze.

As a result, everyone calmed down a little, and began to argue with their sleeves over these two matters.

The civil servants in the Han Dynasty were so tough, and it often happened in the court that they started fighting after a disagreement.They are now considered more "elegant".

Liu Xun sat at the top, his eyes drifting a little.

Sure enough, as Si Jun said, this group of people didn't react.

There is one good thing in troubled times, the household registration collapses, the guides are almost useless, and the flow of talents is large; the inspection system collapses, and the talents are looking for opportunities to stand out on their own.

Usually at this time, the family will be greatly developed.

Those talents have no formal channels to stand out, and they can only rely on famous families and get their recommendation or praise, so that they can be known to the world.

After these talents came to the fore, they formed a natural alliance with the famous families who had helped them. Therefore, in the places where all dynasties were founded, they had to face many local families.It will take several generations of emperors before they can rely on centralization to gradually weaken the power of these people and make the world's talents more inclined to rely on the emperor.

Now that Liu Xun is building a library, the first step is to invite talents from all over the world without setting a threshold; the second step is to establish an examination system to select these talents who enter the academy.

Eventually, this examination selection system will be fixed.That is, what Liu Xun wants to establish now is the predecessor of the imperial examination system.

The imperial examination system was later regarded as feudal dross, but that was only because the content of the examination was out of date.Even in modern times, the examination selection is still relatively speaking, the fairest selection.

The imperial examination system is to break the monopoly of the aristocratic family on talents, so that people have the opportunity to face the emperor directly.Even though there are many unfair things in it, compared with the prosecution system, I don't know where it is advanced.

The emperor set up a school to invite talents, and as long as he passed the exam, he could be asked directly by the emperor.With such a convenient way, who would humble themselves to seek the favor of famous families?

As soon as Liu Xun came to Yizhou, he made a gesture of competing for talents with the world's aristocratic families.
