One thousand four hundred and forty-six the great work of the emperor

The news soon spread throughout Luoyang court and then throughout Luoyang.

News about the Supreme Emperor Guo Peng leaving Luoyang for a tour of the country.

No one informed of the specific inside story, so naturally no one knew the specific inside story.

However, according to some internal information from the school department, the Emperor's tour may be related to the enrollment expansion task that the school department has issued not long ago.

After retiring to Mount Tai, the Emperor did not ask about government affairs or military affairs. All power was delegated to the new emperor Guo Jin, and he only retained the requirements of the School of Control.

Even the emperor cannot interfere with or obstruct all matters in the school.

Any matters about education he decided to pass must be passed, and cannot object to it - it is said that this is the final agreement between the emperor and the Supreme Emperor.

Therefore, in nearly a year since the new emperor ascended the throne, he has never extended his hand to the school. All the affairs of the school are required by the Supreme Emperor.

In fact, all this is not difficult to understand. Guo Peng's greatest martial arts as an emperor was to attack the Xianbei and completely destroyed the Xianbei, the largest and most traditional powerful enemy of the Central Plains regime since the end of the Han Dynasty.

Then the country expanded its territory to the grassland desert, completely dealing with this powerful enemy on the northern grassland like never before, and ensuring the security of the Central Plains regime.

And his merits in civil governance that matched him should be that he successfully eliminated the group of scholars.

He eliminated this group, took all the educational resources they had, and mastered all the educational resources in the world with unprecedented success, and then popularized the education of the world.

The system of recommendation was further abolished, and the imperial examination system that used examinations to determine the advantages and disadvantages were adopted. The tradition of equal importance of civil and military examinations was created, and sufficient and excellent administrative and military talents were selected for the Wei Empire, ensuring that the operation of the Wei Empire was not intervened by a few people.

The right to education and selection all fell into the hands of Emperor Guo, who became an emperor with a complete power and powerful body, with both civil and military importance, pushing the monarchy system to a new peak.

Guo Peng is the existence that created all these miracles.

If he had to ask whether the most proud thing he had been since becoming emperor was whether the Northern Expedition to the Xianbei or the establishment of the imperial examination system, he would have said that the imperial examination system was created and the system of recommendation was abolished.

Military merits can be achieved by any young man from heaven, but political and cultural matters cannot be achieved without the true emperor of the ages.

And he, Mr. Guo, is the emperor of the ages. He transformed educational resources from private ownership to public ownership and eliminated the entire privileged class.

No matter which era you are in, this merit is worthy of being praised.

So in the current official schools and schools across the country, Guo Peng’s portraits are hung in every classroom.

His sentence [Worry about the world before worrying, and after joy in the world after joy] has become an eternal famous saying, and students across the country are asked to recite it, remember that they must be able to speak in their dreams and dreams.

Judging from the fact that Guo Peng still has to master the education in charge of the school after he abdicated, Guo Peng has taken great strict education.

So seeing him having fun and having to go out for a tour, the old and old men in the old era could do nothing except hatred and curse.

Previously, the academic department issued a lot of things that required the education departments of all states and counties in the world to handle.

For example, expanding the school building, expanding the enrollment of students, ensuring the implementation of a daily lunch, ensuring the free provision of books, paper, and pens, etc.

Using this as an attraction, many school-age children will be attracted to school and try to absorb more children as much as possible.

It was further proposed that before the tenth year of Xingyuan, a county school should be established in every county in the country to further downward education, further facilitate school-age children to enroll and share the educational pressure of state academies and county schools.

This policy was required to be processed from September of the first year of Xingyuan.

The first thing to do is to achieve the capital area. The counties around Luoyang were first required to open a county school, officially named a school, and are aimed at all school-age children in the county.

With Luoyang as the center, it will gradually be laid out in the surrounding areas. The central and local governments will allocate funds and expenditures together, and strive to complete this matter before the tenth year of Xingyuan, without any mistakes.

This major plan of the school department is obviously the work of the Supreme Emperor.

The cost is so great that many people are ready to submit a report to the new emperor and ask the new emperor to restrict it slightly.

But at the same time, the empire discovered large-scale gold mines on the Japanese island in the east, and news of the silver mines came back.

Not long afterwards, a large truckload of gold and silver blocks were transported back to the Luoyang warehouse for storage.

People don’t know if this is the malicious intention of the Emperor or whether the Emperor prepared the plan in advance to make everyone miscalculate the situation. As a result, he had already prepared necessary funds for the new emperor and the new policy.

China has never been a country rich in gold and silver, but gold and silver are naturally valuables and synonyms for wealth that can be used for bulk transactions.

So the meaning of the Empire's discovery of large-scale gold and silver mines is that the Empire seems to be not short of money.

Then, rumors spread from the Ministry of Finance that the new emperor was interested in promoting the new Wei Empire monetary system represented by gold, silver and brass.

Replace the current standard Wuzhu coins, silk cloth, silk and other general equivalents with newly minted gold coins, silver coins and copper coins, reshape a standardized economic ecology and legally recognized, which brings changes in the commercial economy.

Once such changes occur, they will naturally have a great promoting effect on business.

But more importantly, this means that the empire has money.

The price of gold and silver is naturally much more expensive than copper.

Although I don’t know how much the amount is, it is obvious from the fact that the Supreme Emperor actually had the confidence to sink money-burning matters like education to the county level. It is obvious that this wave of empire can obtain how much money and gold and silver it can get.

It seems that this was also something that was decided very early.

Before, some people could still be lip service. Now that they have money, the Supreme Emperor has to patrol everywhere to see if there are any Yin and Yang people who are lip service and take them down in one wave.

Maybe it's another big cleansing.

But no one thought that Guo Peng could really get so much gold and silver from overseas - what a big mineral it would be.

It also directly became the private property of the royal family of the Wei Kingdom, and no other individuals or groups were allowed to reach out.

This is what I want to die.

The economic development of the Wei Empire in recent years has not been too fast. The main reason is that the amount of copper coins in the empire is insufficient.

There is a shortage of copper, so the casting speed of Wuzhu coins is far from the speed of social wealth production, which has caused deflation in a certain sense in society.

The Wei Empire implemented the economic system of grain-based, and grain was linked to copper coins, but with the further increase of grain output, copper coins did not keep up, so grain prices have been falling over the years.

Although the harvest is not good every year and the climate is not very good, the Wei Empire's agricultural system and vigorously repairing water conservancy, cracking down on locust plagues, and manufacturing manure also ensured the basic foundation of agricultural production.

Therefore, even if the climate is not good, the weather is not good, the food production of the Wei Empire was not greatly affected.

This led to the increasing amount of grain reserves of the Wei Empire, and the increasing amount of grain reserves in the market, and there was no longer a shortage. With more grain, the increase in grain directly led to the decline in grain prices year after year.

People's demand for food is relatively constant because it is a necessity. Even if the price of food is lower, the market's demand for food will not increase much and will not play a regulatory role.

This phenomenon is also the reason why Guo Peng started looking for gold and silver in Japan since the seventh year of Yande.

Deflation is not conducive to economic development, especially under this food-based system.

Originally, the Wei Empire held a large amount of grain stored, and as long as the grain stored is properly stored, it can still be eaten for more than ten years.

Therefore, when it is linked to copper coins, the price of grain will inevitably fall all the way.

Ordinary people have poor consumption capacity, and the main consumer goods are food, not other commercial products. The prices they see in their eyes are basically equivalent to the prices of grain.

Such a situation will only further make ordinary people think that money is more valuable, so they are not willing to take out money to consume, but store it, which will only further enhance the impact of deflation.

Through statistics from the Ministry of Finance, Guo Peng realized that this phenomenon occurred. This is a situation that many countries have never encountered before in this era, and it is also a problem that many countries have no life.

Because this will only occur in countries lacking metal deposits when the empire has developed to a certain extent. Generally speaking, this can even be considered a wealth disease.

Social wealth is greater than the value of money. What a happy and troublesome wealth disease.

As long as the country can restore peace and as long as the shackles on them can be lifted, how powerful productivity they can burst out...

This kind of happiness trouble could not be experienced by the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and even the Sui and Tang dynasties did not understand it much, but Guo led the Wei Empire to experience it.

Of course, although this is very happy, it is also a trouble after all.

Therefore, Guo Peng instructed the Ministry of Finance to set a grain purchase price very early. If the grain price in a certain place is too low, the local warehousing department will use the grain purchase price to purchase grain from farmers and transport it to the warehouse for storage.

It can be considered as protecting the interests of farmers.

On the other hand, deflation has restricted the further development of commerce. Although there are relatively expensive equivalents such as silk cloth and silk, they cannot be compared with gold and silver, which are naturally currency.

Once the Wei Empire had a sufficient amount of gold and silver, it would inevitably liberate some restrictions on commercial development and make the commodity economy prosper.

This requires the Wei Empire's commercial tax system and tax departments to further speed up the harvest of commercial taxes, and regularly and regularly and quantitatively, targeted attacks on wealthy businessmen.

To put it bluntly, in the feudal era, wealthy merchants were pigs raised by the royal family. As long as they were fat enough, they could be slaughtered.

Or if you have some different thoughts and want to play with land annexation, you can still slaughter even if it is not that fat.
