Chapter 810

Hmm! Indeed, steam locomotives are not very good, but His Majesty's Shenlong locomotive is more appropriate. "

"Shenlong locomotive, um, the name sounds very domineering!"

"Yes! Not only domineering, but also very suitable for the characteristics of our country!"

Zhang Pu hurriedly bowed his body and cupped his hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me the name!"

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty cupped their hands together: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me your name."

Night Breeze waved his hand and said, "Xiao Zhang, did you encounter any difficulties during the development of this Shenlong locomotive? I plan to mass-produce this locomotive. Do you have any difficulties?"

"Talent!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhang Pu said immediately: "Your Majesty, you gave us the blueprint of the steam locomotive, but even under such conditions, it still took us more than a year to turn it into a real thing." !"

"How many sleepless nights, all of us have been working hard and overcoming difficulties. Although we finally took it down, it took too long. After all, there are too few children of our Mohist family. If such a team can Double, or triple, maybe the speed of developing steam locomotives will be much faster!"

Night Breeze nodded silently: "Well! What you said is very reasonable. In the final analysis, development depends on people. This person doesn't have to be in the temple. He can contribute to the country wherever he is! "

"Like today's Tongrentang, it spreads all over the country, and Hua Tuo's disciples spread all over the country. Although he didn't heal every doctor and patient himself, every doctor and patient was cured because of him!"

"Leaving aside, in just a few years, the population of Mount Tai has doubled by five or six times, and people's average life expectancy has been more than ten years longer. This is inseparable from Hua Tuo's Tongrentang."

"Talent! It's not just scientific research talent, it covers all industries. Only when all industries are prosperous can the country prosper and the people be healthy!" All the ministers nodded in agreement.

"Your Majesty is right. The country should indeed strengthen the selection of talents."

"Yes! We need to cultivate more talents in order to support the development of our Ye Tianwang empire and stand proudly in China forever."

Facts speak louder than words!

Only by putting powerful things in front of these diehards can it be the most convincing!

Night Breeze pondered for a while, and said loudly: "That's right! The referral system has been abolished. These days, after thinking hard, I finally came up with a recipe that can help the country select talents and stimulate students to work hard!"

Zhuge Liang hurriedly asked: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, how do you plan to select talents?"

Night Breeze blurted out two words: "Imperial examination!"

"Imperial examination?"

Everyone was stunned for a while, expressing that they had no idea what it was.

Night Breeze explained: "In short, all students who want to become an official must sign up for the imperial examination. All participants will be assessed on the same topic together, and the winners and losers will be determined by their results. It is fair, just and open."

Xun He bowed his body and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, although this matter is very good, there are more than one million students in the world. If all of them come here to take the exam, it will be too difficult to organize."

Night Breeze immediately said: "The assessment needs to be done step by step, step by step! The first step is the college entrance examination, which will be assessed by the teachers of the college, and ten outstanding students from the college will be selected to participate in the next round of assessment."

"The next thing is the county exam. Students from all counties will participate in the assessment together. The top 50 will be selected to participate in the next round of state exams. By analogy, when it comes to the national exam, the number of students will be less, and all of them are elite students. "

Zhuge Liang nodded silently: "Wonderful! There are layers of competitions, and layers of elimination. Only the real elite can make it to the end. In this way, we can really select outstanding talents for the country."

Night Breeze said softly: "The exam adopts a registration system, so a large number of people can be eliminated. After all, the strong are like clouds, and sometimes they don't need to hit the south wall and don't return."

"Of course!"

Night Breeze took a deep breath, and added: "In order to verify that they are truly elite students, after taking the national exam, the top ten selected will go to the palace exam!"

"I want to examine them personally!" All the ministers nodded in agreement.

"Your Majesty attaches so much importance to students, it is really a blessing to all the students in the world!"

"In this way, it has greatly encouraged the students' enthusiasm for learning. They will definitely work hard and win glory for the country!"

"Being received by His Majesty is definitely an honor for the students in this life. Just for this, we must work hard!"

"Of course, this is only an innovation in the selection of talents, and the content of the assessment also needs to be adjusted."

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Ye Feng's lips, and he said softly: "As we have seen today, the country needs talents not only in economics and governance, but also in scientific research, medicine and so on. "

"As far as students are concerned, I also hope that they can develop in an all-round way. Masters who simply know how to compose poems and compose poems will slowly get out of society's progress!"

"It may be too early to talk about this content. After all, there are some things that students haven't had time to learn, but we have to inform them in advance to attract their attention. Within three years, the content of the assessment will definitely cause a huge upgrade."

Zhang Pu was so excited, he cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Mohist family has lingered for hundreds of years, and now that they have received His Majesty's Enkou, it is finally time to carry it forward. This is an honor for every Mo family!

Night Breeze waved his hand: "I'm not for your Mohists, but for the Yetianwang Empire. The real academic atmosphere should not be dominated by one family, but by a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending!"

Zhang Pu nodded heavily, deeply agreeing.

Although the officials beside him felt that it was a bit too much, they had no good reason to refute it. After all, the matter was proposed by the emperor himself, and there were facts before them, so they could only accept it silently!

Some wise and resourceful ministers had already guessed what Night Breeze was thinking. This was clearly a trick that Night Breeze had deliberately set up to induce him to change the system.

In this way, they will not object to Night Breeze's restructuring!

After all, who is so stupid to dare to fight against the emperor, is it because he thinks he has lived too long?

"Kong Ming." Night Breeze greeted.

"The minister is here." Zhuge Liang bowed his body and cupped his hands.

"As soon as possible, draw up a charter for today's affairs, and after approval, convey it in the form of an imperial decree."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will arrange this matter as soon as possible."

"Yeah!" Night Breeze nodded, and looked at the ministers, "We won't be going back to the palace today, if you have anything to report, let's talk about it here, if you don't, just step back."
