One thousand five hundred and ten Lucky Wang Can
Liangzhou's economy has been successfully stabilized, not only will Lu Qian be commended, but Mao Jie will also be given the opportunity to be promoted.
At the same time, they are in the position of reformist officials. No matter what their original intention is, they are actually prosperous and lose.
Even if his contributions are not as great as Lu Qian, he can tolerate the ranking behind Lu Qian, because this time he really has to thank Lu Qian.
And the opportunity is still very great now.
Emperor Guo Jin had just cleaned up the opposition led by Zao Zhi. Although the vacancy was quickly filled, as long as the northwest was stabilized, there would inevitably be real rewards.
Of course, the happiest one is not the two wolves, but Guo Jin.
At the end of September, when the debate in Luoyang City was in a state of intense heat about whether the elixir was a poison or an immortal product, he connected to the above statement from Lu Qian and Mao Jie.
The above tables of these two people mark the initial containment of the economic crisis in the northwest and the situation has stabilized. The focus of the next work is to lick the wounds and reshape the economic order in the northwest.
Of course, this finishing work is simply too easy than dealing with the economic crisis.
The two of them expressed their gratitude to the emperor. Thanks to the emperor's Hong Fu Qitian, they successfully stabilized the situation in the northwest.
Literally thank the Emperor.
Because in fact, if Guo Jin had not opened up a second battlefield to deal with Zao Zhi, the northwestern bureaucrats would have to deal with the backstabs of the old central bureaucrats while resisting the economic crisis, the result would be hard to say.
Guo Jin provided them with help in Luoyang, helped them attract the firepower of the opposition, and even fought hard to clean up the opposition, creating political conditions for the Northwest bureaucrats to fully respond to the economic crisis.
Isn’t this Guo Jin’s credit?
For this emergency, he even used Cheng Yu, the ultimate weapon left to him by Guo Peng, and destroyed his reputation from the lord of kindness to the tyrannical king.
If the northwest still couldn't hold on, his fighting would feel like it was meaningless.
Now that the Northwest has successfully stabilized, his fierce battle has made sense.
And the significance has expanded.
Purging Zao Zhi and stabilizing the northwest can be regarded as his two major victories on the political battlefield.
He purged the opposition and successfully stood on the same front with the reformists in the Northwest. After that, the reformists in the Northwest can be said to be his own people and will provide him with important help in his governance.
In addition to the basic ruling left to him by his father Guo Peng, he finally obtained a group of basic rulings in another sense.
And after this Zaozhi incident, he felt that the basic plan was better built by himself. Although the ruling team left by his father was rich in experience, he would be really uncomfortable once a 25-year-old boy appeared.
Before launching a counterattack, Zao Zhi led the opposition to put huge political pressure on him, which made him almost breathless.
He definitely didn't want to ask for that feeling anymore.
As a result, he felt more deeply that Guo Peng was not easy.
Guo Peng's situation must have been more difficult than him before launching several major purges. He gradually took control of the court after so many major purges, and what he inherited was this relatively obedient court.
It was this relatively obedient court that put such great political pressure on him that he could not imagine what Guo Peng had experienced three years ago.
A large cleaning is indeed necessary.
So Guo Jin began to prepare to take a seat in the court, to provide reformist officials in the northwest with a large number of obedient self-represented people, and gradually extinguish the unobedient old people.
When I was dealing with Zaozhi, the Northwest Crisis was at a critical moment, so I did not promote the Northwest Reformers into the court, but instead selected a group of new people to join the court.
Now that the economic war in the northwest has won, it has also changed to the time when rewarding merits and rewards, a series of personnel changes will be launched.
Of course, before personnel changes begin, they must make some vacant seats. There are all certain central officials. One can only be replaced by another when one leaves. You cannot create a position out of thin air.
So who is the lucky one to be rejected?
Guo Jin looked around and found Wang Can, a soft persimmon that was easy to pinch.
He was a stakeholder and was favored by his ministers. He relied on mathematics to enter the house. He was the first chief minister of the cabinet and the first minister of the Ministry of Finance.
His greatest contribution during his term was not his job, but his identity as a lieutenant inspired a large number of scholars to devote themselves to the career of mathematics, overtake the path of lieutenant, and entered the Guo Wei regime in the era of the Five Classics and Fourteen Laws and became an official.
In this era, mathematics is no longer a knowledge that is not inexperienced, but an essential knowledge for an official and a must-have item for the imperial examination. Therefore, the soil for the survival of a simple accounting group no longer exists.
As long as the group of people who entered the ruling class by relying on the path of calculating officials were not cleaned up, they were basically the backbone of the Guo and Wei regime, and a few of them also intervened in the high-level, adding to the mathematical component of the Guo and Wei ruling class.
It has very positive significance for promoting the development of the mathematics cause of Wei State and the establishment of the Royal Mathematics Association.
But in addition, Wang Can's political achievements were mediocre as the Chief Auxiliary of the Cabinet and the Minister of Finance, but there were many minor mistakes.
Guo Peng never cleansed him because he was obedient. In fact, Guo Peng also had many dissatisfactions with him and questioned his ability to do things.
Guo Jin was also dissatisfied with him, but because he was obedient, he would keep it for now. As a result, during this economic crisis, Wang Can's soft-legged shrimp was fully exposed. Faced with the powerful Zaozhi, he could hardly resist and could not support Guo Jin.
Guo Jin was even more dissatisfied with him and decided to transfer him from his important position as Minister of Finance. To change to someone who is brave and responsible, he is the most important thing to be the Minister of Finance and the Minister of Finance and the government will be in charge of the treasury to facilitate his future work.
As for how to arrange Wang Can, Guo Jin made some thoughts.
Although Wang Can did not make any contribution, he did not make any major mistakes in his job. He asked for trouble to remove him from his post, which made the emperor seem a little willful.
He just used the storm of integrity to scare the ministers. At this time, Guo Jin did not want to use more intense measures to remove Wang Can from his post, so as not to arouse new uneasiness among the ministers.
The corrupt officials and opposition killed in this wave were enough to allow Cheng Yu to digest for a long time and to allow Guo Jin to take advantage of a long time. He is now satisfied and does not want to make trouble.
After thinking about it, Guo Jin found a good place for Wang Can.
The Royal Mathematical Association of the Wei Empire - Arithmetic Hall.
At the end of the first year of Xingyuan, Guo Jin ordered to establish a math hall belonging to the Imperial Academy in accordance with Guo Peng's wish to make mathematics a skill that every official must master.
The significance of the establishment of the Arithmetic Hall is to study mathematics, promote the development of mathematics, and set questions for mathematics links in the annual imperial examinations, which will play an important role in the imperial examinations.
Speaking of which, the emergence and development of natural sciences such as mathematics often have a relatively strong demand for social development. Only when society has a demand for development and productivity improvement will it in turn affect the development of academics and promote academic progress.
If you want to promote academic progress without the need for social development, even if the emperor strives for development, it will be the end of the destruction of the people.
Without the needs of interest groups and demands of interests, this tacky world will not move forward.
Isn’t the reason why the Five Confucian Classics have been studied to produce flowers because of the promotion of political interests?
If Emperor Wu of Han twitched his head and did not like the Five Confucian Classics, but liked the Mo Classics, and used the Mo Classics to select officials, it would ensure that people could also study the Mo Classics into flowers, and promote the emergence of a large number of Mo family masters, and various theories that explain the Mo Classics can be passed down through the ages.
Of course, this is just a hypothesis, but the truth is the same.
Without social development and interest groups' demands for mathematical research, mathematics will naturally not be able to develop. No matter how Guo Peng demands the development of mathematics, even if these guys come up with various equations, no one will continue to study mathematics once he dies.
Therefore, Guo Peng tried his best to include mathematics in the scope of the imperial examination, allowing the imperial examination bureaucrats to strive to maintain the existence and development of mathematics for their own interests against the old scholars, and added a protective umbrella to mathematics in politics.
But this is not enough. The real meaning of mathematics lies in promoting social development and the development of productivity, and it should not be used only for exams.
Only when things involve actual things can mathematics be truly developed.
This does not require Guo Peng to work hard. After the Maritime Silk Road was opened, huge trade demand has already driven mathematics forward.
Every detail of trade is inseparable from mathematics, and the development of navigation technology is also inseparable from mathematics, and even the development of military technology is also driving mathematics forward.
Trade needs calculations, navigation needs calculations, and the development of military technology also needs calculations, and everyone needs calculations.
Guo Jin established a math hall, and in all senses it was announcing the whole society the attitude of the Guo Wei regime to attach importance to mathematics.
Of course, this arithmetic classroom has no practical power. In addition to setting questions for the mathematical content of the imperial examination, it is just a group of people studying mathematics doing their homework.
Research and operation in all aspects of social production where mathematics is needed, and give definite answers.
The department that once cultivated the business of the business has been incorporated into the Arithmetic Hall as a whole and has become the reserve department for mathematical talents needed by the country. If there are any mathematical needs in the future, the outstanding members of the Arithmetic Hall will be promptly supplemented to various departments of the court for services.
So it doesn't matter. This arithmetic hall is really important because it is useful.
But if you want to say it is important, it seems that it is not important to go anywhere and has no right to do anything.
Guo Jin looked around and felt that this department was the most suitable for Wang Can. Anyway, Wang Can himself was appreciated by Guo Peng because of his math talent, and he was also returning to his old career.
So Guo Jin was fiercely arguing in Luoyang about whether elixirs could live forever. Suddenly, he issued an edict to transfer Wang Can from the position of Minister of Finance and to be the head of the Arithmetic Hall.
