The 332nd chapter adds the normal department, the medical department, and the six departments become ten departments
Zhu Youxiao naturally learned about the signing of the treaty through Jinyiwei and Dongchang.
But he still listened to Wei Guangwei's report carefully.
After all, the good news is endless.
Fang Congzhe and others were also like this. They listened happily to Wei Guangwei report to the emperor what they already knew, and they still actively congratulated the emperor.
"It's great that the treaty was signed so smoothly. My dear ministers and others made great contributions. They planned to be appointed as the Minister of Rites, Prince Wei Guangwei, and the Minister of Rites, and the Governor-General of Chen Yourong!"
Zhu Youxiao first rewarded the officials involved in the negotiators.
It is naturally worthy of reward that Wei Guangwei and Shen Yourong were able to promote this negotiation and allow the Ming Dynasty to gain a lot of benefits at once.
Next, Zhu Youxiao began to discuss with his ministers how to arrange the compensation for the 30 million yuan silver coins and how to rule the overseas colony of Nagasaki. In addition, it was to send officials to stay in Edo and further trade in the future, and to deal with the corresponding criminals.
For a time, Zhu Youxiao and his ministers had to fall into a busy life again, even more busy than before when reforming the internal affairs.
Just like in history, the great powers received compensation and colonies from the Qing Dynasty, and were busy with how to spend this compensation and how to rule their own colonies.
However, because the benefits directly plundered from the outside world have not harmed the interests of any class in the country and are huge wealth that is difficult to make in the short term, this kind of busyness is very comfortable for the wise rulers and ministers.
"Continue to build an additional official road! In the future, the roads will be set up as national highways, provincial highways, county highways, and the various governors' offices must have national highways leading to the two capitals. Each prefecture, prefecture, county, and townships must have county highways. Each county and township should have county highways. The transportation department will be established. The Minister of the Ministry of Transport will be the Minister of the World, and the water and land routes will be the Minister of the World. The Governor of the River will be the Minister of the Ministry of Transport in the future."
The sudden increase in the income of silver coins by 30 million yuan in the Ming Dynasty was naturally spent. Otherwise, staying in the treasury would only be silver coins and would not be able to play the role of its currency.
However, Zhu Youxiao did not directly care about the tuition, such as "the prosperity of the country will never increase the tuition", but still asked to use the money to build infrastructure.
The reason was nothing else. Zhu Youxiao knew that even though the administration of the Ming Dynasty was considered as Qingming, it would not benefit the common people directly because the gentry below would always take advantage of various policies to make light and weak taxes into policies that were only beneficial to them.
Because in a top-down rule model, even if the tax is exempted, local officials and gentry will have other ways to exploit the people, and it is difficult for the people to become rich because of this.
Therefore, instead of doing so, it is better to use the imperial power of the emperor, the emperor, to directly concentrate the money on infrastructure and turn it into public facilities that benefit the people.
"In addition, water conservancy projects such as canals, reservoirs, and dams that are flood control and drought-resistant must also be further built!
The Ministry of Agriculture has added a water conservancy department, which is responsible for the addition of water conservancy projects in various places;
In addition, the Ministry of Agriculture has established a reclaiming department, which is specialized in organizing refugees to reclaim wasteland and farmland and the promotion of newly cultivated high-quality crops;
The Academy of Agricultural Sciences is assigned to the Ministry of Agriculture, and it is still in charge of agricultural machinery and new crop cultivation, with rice, wheat, corn and potatoes. These departments should have experts to specialize in studying how to increase the grain output. The court regularly all allocates funds. If there is any achievement, additional silver and official titles will be awarded, and it will be promoted quickly!"
Zhu Youxiao continued to make arrangements for agriculture.
Although he did not expect that someone in this era could greatly increase rice yields like Mr. Yuan, he still hoped that through the attention of his emperor, he would achieve a level of grain yield per mu of the Ming Dynasty.
After all, agriculture is the foundation of everything. If agricultural productivity does not improve, other scientific and technological points will be white. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty cannot only use the method of borrowing grain from outside to solve the food crisis. This method can only be used in an emergency, and fundamentally it must be improved in production technology.
"Social studies must also be expanded. In addition, in order to have enough tutors in the society, a teacher training department was issued to all over the world to add a normal school in addition to the Jinshi class!
Normal schools were also built in two capitals and 13 provinces, and several normal students were added to each prefecture and county;
After the college entrance examination is held in each province, the normal school examination will be held, so that the normal school students can be selected, and those who pass the imperial examination will enjoy the qualifications of the same student;
Normal students can directly obtain the provincial examination qualification after three years of teaching in social science. All normal students who have passed the provincial examination can enter the Beijing Normal School or participate in the admission examination of normal schools in various provinces. After the admission examination of each normal school is issued, students in the normal school will be given the same origin as a juren. After graduation, they can all take the same appointment as a juren, or go directly to the Ministry of Personnel to apply for teaching positions, or participate in the normal school examination. Those who take the normal school examination and are admitted will be given the same origin as a jinshi, and will be directly awarded the official position by the court."
"In addition, we should add a school department to manage the world's academic affairs!
The academic department has a provincial academic department and a counselor of the academic department. It is the fourth rank and is also appointed by the provincial academic envoy. Therefore, the academic envoy of each province needs to report on academic matters to the academic department. In addition to the academic department of each province, the academic department should set up a normal department and a Jinshi department, which is specialized in the normal department and the Jinshi exam."
Although the compensation of 30 million yuan in silver coins cannot be allowed to directly carry out universal education, it is enough to raise a few more normal students in the future.
To popularize education, you must first have enough faculty and have enough normal education. Therefore, Zhu Youzhai decided to add a normal subject first.
"There is also a new official clinic. What the Ming Dynasty lacks most now is not money, but people, especially enough Han people. Otherwise, why can we achieve the border and why we will not let these territory be lost after opening up the territory in the future?
To increase the population, the first thing is to reduce the mortality rate and allow both diseases and plagues to be controlled, and this requires more doctors!
Issued an edict to add medical departments and medical departments. Like normal departments, each school has set up doctors and builds medical science halls. Graduates are called doctors and can be directly appointed as medical officials, or can directly participate in the examination hall. The admitted doctors can serve as medical officials."
Zhu Youxiao also decided to take this opportunity to spend money to improve the medical level of the Ming Dynasty. After all, many times, plagues will also lead to crises in a country.
He remembered that in history, the flood of plague in the northern region during the Chongzhen period also caused great damage to the Ming Dynasty. Now he had to prepare in advance and train more medical personnel first to prepare for the future response to sudden outbreaks.
What's more, the era of the smallpox pandemic is coming soon.
In this way, the six divisions of the Ming Dynasty became ten divisions.
The number of government offices in the court undoubtedly increased again.
The trend of large governments is becoming increasingly difficult to avoid.
Some public utilities that were undertaken by local gentry in the past were replaced by the government.
Zhu Youxiao was not disgusted with this trend because he had to admit that when the local governments used to take on more functions, they did not allow the entire country to develop in a better direction, but instead gradually declined.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao felt that it would be better to let the imperial government take more care of things and spend more money like now.
Zhu Youxiao is now spending the compensation he received from Japan on the aspects of people's livelihood, education and medical care, and does not save all the money like local gentry.
After all, he is an emperor, and unlike the gentry, gentry can ignore the life and death of the Zhu family dynasty. He, the Zhu family emperor, had to care about the life and death of the Zhu family dynasty and let the empire develop in a positive direction.
Zhu Youxiao believed that if the compensation was continued, the Ming Dynasty would take big steps, both hard and soft power, just like the great powers in history who received a lot of compensation from the Qing Dynasty and greatly improved their national strength.
