Du Zhongxiao came back from the exhibition hall and used tea again. In Xia Feng's eyes, he was completely different. This person was born in a small family and seemed a little clumsy in the officialdom, but his political achievements were real and he was a rare capable official.

When the public official went to prepare for a reception banquet, Xia Feng asked Du Zhongxiao: "The magistrate, besides the places we have seen, what other places are there in the field business, which are different from other places and worth seeing?"

Du Zhongxiao thought about it for a moment, but didn't know how to answer. Of course, the places he ruled were different from other places. In the end, he had more knowledge, countless ideas, and had power in his hands, so he didn't come up with many tricks. But what is worth Xia Shu could not remember for a while.

After a while, Du Zhongxiao said: "I went back to my grandfather. Recently, the imperial court advised me to rebuild my grandfather. I also ordered the county to establish my grandfather. According to my grandfather's instructions, in addition to selecting a location in the county, building a county school, and hiring famous teachers, he also built a school in Yingtianwu and the commune, teaching some naughty children to recognize a few words, and then teaching calculations, instruments and other knowledge. I don't expect them to be a candidate for the exam. I just want to read a few books of sages, simple customs, and learn some skills that can make a living. Most of the wise men and women have been established. This school has been established. Should I go and take a look?"

Xia Xu nodded: "Okay, this is a good thing. We have eaten and drunk together."

The Yingtianwu school is not far from the yamen. It is a row of five large brick and tile houses with a large courtyard, which is much more spacious than ordinary families. This year, Yingtianwu specially built a brick and tile kiln, which uses coal to make bricks and tiles. Many buildings are made of bricks and tile burned inside.

Twenty or thirty children were in two classrooms, one was teaching "Thousand Character Classics" and the other was teaching calculations, and they were planning to do it.

Xia Shu, Du Zhongxiao and others entered the yard and saw that the yard was empty. Some beans and millet were planted around them, accompanied by scattered flowers and plants.

Du Zhongxiao said to Xia Su: "These beans and millets were planted by students and harvested in autumn are considered as scattered food. In addition, the land management will allocate money and rice to the teacher to be rewarded."

Xia Xu nodded: "Yes, the country gentleman worked hard and poor, so it should be better to make up for their money and supplies."

At this time, whether in the countryside or in the city, people from middle and upper-class families knew a few words, but not many people actually read poetry and books. Mr. Qiong and the man who taught poetry and books are two different things. The former is found in many places, while the latter is very rare. The man in the countryside is not paid high, and he just collects some grain and rice, and has to farm more himself. In this school where the field management worker is actually out of stock, and his salary is far from comparable to that of a man in the country.

"Thousand Characters" and other things are not good at reading, so Xia Shu took people to another classroom where he taught and calculated, and stood and listened to what he said.

After listening for a while, he said to Du Zhongxiao beside him: "This is the first time I have seen him. The magistrate, I don't know where to select these students? After teaching, do you want to be a human official?"

Du Zhongxiao bowed: "When I returned to my husband, they were all children from all villages under the Yingtianwu period. They were of the right age. The parents sent them to the school. After studying for one or two years, those with talent continued to stay here. Those who were unwilling to learn or really couldn't learn, they went home. What they did in the future will be ignored. After all, the yamen will let the common people learn the skills and be useful in the future. Book calculations are useful everywhere, and no matter whether they are a human official, many shop managers are also required. I heard that people in the south of the Yangtze River learn more about calligraphy calculations, and the officials there are voluntarily. The people in the northwest do not learn this technique. The officials in the book calculations are important, especially those in front of the yamen. There are many people who practice this technique, and whether they are officials or the people, it is always a good thing."

Xia Xu nodded, listened for a while, but there was nothing special, so he didn't enter the classroom. He looked around and left.

According to Du Zhongxiao's idea, this is another education system independent of the prefecture and county education, mainly based on practical technology. In addition to teaching people to read and recognize words, they also have to teach calculations, and even in the future, they also have to teach mechanical knowledge and various professional knowledge, which is equivalent to technical schools. These technical schools are combined with the world-wide field affairs to provide talents needed in the early stages of industrial development. As for university research at the national level, they are not what he thinks now.

Du Zhongxiao's previous life was an era of changing circumstances, and whether it was the social outlook or various systems, they were changing rapidly. One thing Du Zhongxiao learned was that you should not imagine that a system of all ages could solve problems. Start from reality, focus on practicality, and straighten out production relations to promote the development of productivity. Problems will arise during development and will also solve problems. If you don't stick to the incompleteness, there will always be solutions to problems. This is the case for land management and commune in Yongcheng, which is applicable to this time and place. What will happen after development will not be the problem that Du Zhongxiao considers.

Xia Shu was not interested in these things. In his eyes, promoting learning is promoting the learning of sages. Xia Shu didn't object to Du Zhongxiao's village school, but he really couldn't think of the meaning, just forget it after reading it.

Everyone returned to the official and sat down. Because the weather was hot, the public took ice water and let everyone drink it.

Xia Xun said: "I feel cold and hard to bear. I need to add more clothes. Why do I still put on ice water? Take it out quickly and exchange hot tea for it!"

The man secretly looked at Du Zhongxiao, and Du Zhongxiao shook his head slightly, signaling the man to follow Xia Shu's instructions and exchange hot tea.

Xia Xun was so angry that he liked to eat elixirs and his body was so weird that he was afraid of the cold. Now was the hottest time of the year. Du Zhongxiao and others were wearing single clothes, and Yu Dahan was dripping, but Xia Xun was still wearing a jacket, which was very strange.

After changing to the hot tea, Xia Feng took a sip and said, "I don't feel it in the sun when I go out and walk, but when I get back to the house, it becomes cold and unpredictable. I feel it's better after drinking this sip of hot tea."

Everyone said nothing, endured the sweat on their bodies and slowly drank tea.

At this moment, a person came in with the residence and handed it to Du Zhongxiao and said, "Minister, report to the residence today. The county magistrate Cheng ordered people to deliver it quickly."

Du Zhongxiao took the newspaper in his hand and flipped through it casually. Xia Shu asked casually: "Is there anything important in the court?"

Du Zhongxiao didn't care, and didn't want to read the first paragraph of the official newspaper. He was the deputy general of the government, Fan Zhongyan, who asked for a foreign appointment and was the envoy of the Xuanfu in Shaanxi and Hedong. He was stunned for a while before he said to Xia Shu: "My grandpa, Fan Guanzheng, was appointed as the envoy of the Xuanfu in Shaanxi and Hedong.

When Xia Shu heard this, he stood up suddenly and said, "Take it and see it!"

Du Zhongxiao handed over the mansion report and murmured: "There is still a rich husband who has resigned from the Deputy Envoy of the Privy Councilor to promote the pacification of Hebei--"

The core figures of this new policy are Fan Zhongyan and Fu Bi, and Han Qi is actually relatively marginalized. It is precisely because of this that the failure of the Qingli New Deal has caused Han Qi to be less affected. Those who oppose the Qingli New Deal rarely point their heads to Han Qi.

Xia Feng read the newspaper and sneered: "Fan, the second rich minister, is entangled in the censors Ouyang Xiu, Cai Xiang and others, and is a clique to each other, forming a party to inflict private affairs. In recent years, his party members have been full of important positions, and no one dares to speak out. He also sent his party members to investigate and frame officials, which made everyone feel threatened. Lai Sheng was wise and finally saw through the tricks of the traitor and denounced the court. This is a joy for the world!"
