Everyone was waiting for Li Shimin to explain." It's precisely because it has only been implemented for a few years that it has to be changed. It's not too late to change now. These Jimi prefectures will be converted to exile.”
The ministers stared at Li Shimin. There were many problems in this, and if they were not solved, they would not be able to implement the reform.
Moreover, were those chieftains willing to hand over their power? The answer was definitely impossible.
"The chieftain is still a chieftain. The county magistrate is in charge of the local government. The government office can register those Liao people. As long as they are registered, they can provide them with production tools and teach them how to cultivate. They will be exempted from taxes for the first three years.”
"Liao people and Han people are equal. When there is a dispute, the county government will treat them fairly. The Royal Industry Company will also trade with them and increase the supply of materials.”
"Who would be willing to live in the Howling Mountains after their living standards have improved?”
"Then, we have to open a school. This can be done slowly.”Li Shi Min waved his hand.
At this moment, Fang Xuanling said," Jimi Prefecture is far away from the prosperous Central Plains. The Han people are generally not accustomed to the environment there. I'm afraid that when the officials are sent there, they will be mistaken for exiles.”
"Don't worry about the problem of not adapting to the environment. The Royal Medical College now has many medical books and commonly used medicines in this area. Moreover, the officials in Jimi Prefecture will be prioritized to be transferred to other upper counties after three years.”Li Shi Min continued,
" The Tang Empire needs a large number of local officials, teachers, and doctors." Li Shimin turned to Zhangsun Wuji and asked," How many of those who failed the imperial examination are still in the capital?"”
Li Shi Min took advantage of the Imperial Examination to recruit a large number of teachers after the Imperial Examination, and finally filled up the teachers of the Royal Primary School.
Currently, there were more than 14,000 orphans in the Royal Primary School, and there were more than 2,600 people who studied medicine under Sun Simiao.
In this batch of candidates, other than those who were teachers, there were many more, so Li Shimin asked.
"Your Majesty, there are still many people left in the capital, but the exact number has not been counted.”
Li Shimin thought that it was indeed a waste of time to ask. Zhangsun Wuji definitely wouldn't pay attention to the number of people.
"The Great Tang is currently in dire need of local officials. For the first three years, we can hold the imperial examinations twice a year, and then once a year.”
"These candidates who are staying in the capital to take the exam, can they teach during the period before the exam next year?”
Although a primary school had been built during the reconstruction of the market, and the number of primary schools would gradually increase as the market was rebuilt, there were still many school-age children who had not yet enrolled in school.
Li Shimin was prepared to let these candidates in the capital teach the children how to read and write.
As long as these students wanted to teach, they could register with the Royal Construction Company and they would be lent a house for teaching.
For half a year, even if a student received a hundred copper coins of tutelage, if he recruited sixty students, he would earn six strings of money. It was not bad. One had to know that an ordinary family could survive for a year with two or three strings of money.
As for ordinary people, they could still afford a hundred copper coins.
As for the writing pens, he had also made a pencil some time ago. Now, for enlightenment books like the Three-Character Classic, each book would be given a pencil and a sharpener.
It was very cheap to buy a pencil after it was used up. It cost one coin per pencil and could be used for a long time.
Due to the holding of the brush, the writing method was to write horizontally from left to right.
Li Shimin was thinking about the early stages of universal education. It was enough to be able to recognize common words and simple mathematical calculations.
What Li Shiming thought could be done directly by the royal family. There was no need to go through Zhangsun Wuji, so he stopped this topic.
"That's enough about the internal affairs. Now, let's talk about the military.”
Li Jing asked,"Your Majesty, how should we deal with the Turkic generals who surrendered during the war?"”
"Arrange for them to be a regiment commander. Before they start, arrange for them to enter the Royal Military Academy to study.”Li Shiming had already made plans for this, so he gave him a moderate position.
"Your Majesty, this is the military arrangement for Guazhou and Shazhou. As for Yizhou, we can only implement it after these two states have stabilized.”Du Ruhui continued.
Li Shimin looked at it." But, we'll do as the above says." In addition, the troops stationed at Jade Gate Pass and Yang Pass would be responsible for checking the tax payment certificates of the goods that were sent out of the customs.”
"Dunhuang is going to become a place for goods to be shipped to the Western Regions. The Royal Industrial Company will transport silk, tea, and porcelain there to trade with the Hu merchants.”
Everyone's eyes lit up.
This year, the royal family's business had earned too much money. Who wouldn't be jealous?
Now that he could go to Dunhuang with the Royal Industries Company, who wouldn't be interested?
We all have to eat, okay? Who would complain about having too much money?
Li Shi Min was also preparing to weave the cotton cloth.
With the current level of production in the Great Tang, the cotton cloth would not have a great impact on silk.
However, it would definitely impact the low-end cloth market.
Although the Great Tang was now promoting the breeding industry, and even the technology of artificially hatching eggs was spread through the newspapers, the living standards of the common people had improved very quickly, but it was still a short time.
In order not to affect the income of the people, Li Shimin wanted to open the Silk Road.
Large quantities of silk, tea, porcelain, glass, and other goods were being sold.
