The north wind is bleak and the dead leaves are falling. The vitality of spring and summer seems to dissipate in the early winter.
In Jingshan, blue bricks and red tiles are vaguely visible, and numerous temples are hidden in the mountains, appearing and disappearing.
At the foot of the mountain, the gray and white city walls are majestic, the Daheng dragon flag is waving, the city gates are towering, and soldiers patrol. The five characters of the Daheng Academy of Engineering, written by the emperor, are engraved on the city gate like dragons and phoenixes.
With the city guarding the hospital and the heavy army guarding it, this alone can clearly prove the special nature of the Daheng Academy of Engineering.
You should know that after the Academy of Engineering was separated from the Academy of Martial Arts, even the Academy of Martial Arts was reduced by more than one level.
"See Your Majesty!"
The soldiers at the city gate visited and shouted that the Daheng Academy of Engineering was established separately, and this was the first time that the emperor visited the Academy of Engineering.
When you pass through the city gate, what you hit you is a strong academy atmosphere.
I saw students wearing black school robes everywhere among the blue bricks and red tiles, gathering together, having fun, sitting on the ground, controversy, or gathering together to study.
Looking around, it is full of a very tolerant learning atmosphere.
The fact is naturally the same. Apart from the requirement of ideological unity, the emperor has no other strictness towards the Daheng Academy of Engineering.
As for what to study and how to study, the emperor never interfered with it.
As far as the emperor knows, there are many customizations within the Academy of Engineering.
Just like the Imperial City Ordnance Department, it has cooperated with the Academy of Engineering to study the major category of ordnance, which directly led to the fact that among the Academy of Engineering, ordnance directly became a major subject, and a large number of students participated in the research.
For example, since Xu Guangqi became the Minister of the Works Department, the Ministry of Works has also been involved with the Academy of Engineering.
How to use massive water trucks and other water conservancy facilities, how to improve agricultural tools, and how to improve transportation facilities...
It is also like the steam engine that the Emperor mentioned casually when the Engineering Department of the Martial Arts Academy was established, using steam to drive external objects. Since the Engineering Department of the Martial Arts Academy was established, it has been a popular place in the Academy of Engineering for nearly ten years.
It is obvious that even the emperor has to admit that Daheng's new learning development is to promote the development of new theoretical learning by applying new learning in practice.
A new era of learning that has grown wildly and has not yet been completely systematic.
Research and experiment in one direction, how to make this research direction successful.
And this process, and then the accumulated experience, became the new theory.
Most of this theory requires time to test. After all, there is a danger of being overthrown at any time. Therefore, if the new Daheng education is classified and the new learning that is now spread along with the education system is counted as Level 1, then the new learning in the Daheng Academy of Engineering will be at least Level 3, and this Level 3 is unstable and uncertain.
If one day is determined and stable, it will be compiled into new teaching materials step by step and spread to the whole world.
In this way, it is conceivable how transcendent the Academy of Engineering has in the heart of the emperor.
And the facts clearly prove this.
Since the establishment of the Engineering Department of the Martial Arts Academy, over the years, the sky has been scattered again and again, and countless times have been bloody and cruelly cleaned up the old order and vested interests.
But the Academy of Engineering is always a paradise, and any storm will come to an abrupt end when it comes to the Academy of Engineering.
Of course, in order to avoid such a transcendent status of the Academy of Engineering and being exploited by those with ulterior motives, the emperor naturally set up many preventive measures.
For example, a large number of houses are built in the capital, which serves as the place where the families of students of the Academy of Engineering live...
For example, the internal audit and supervision departments of the Academy of Engineering have audited the whereabouts of money, and supervision of corruption and dereliction of duty...
In order to encourage invention and creation and promote the development of new learning, the emperor set the framework of patent law as early as the beginning of cement that year. Later, with the development of the Academy of Engineering and the acceptance of new learning by the world, the patent law, which was originally set the framework by the emperor, became increasingly system and constitution.
However, Daheng has too wide a territory and too many government affairs in the court. Even after so many years, most of the places affected by the Patent Law are limited to the scope of Northern Zhili.
But even so, the existence of patent law has created many legends and attracted many talents to devote themselves to invention and creation, and contribute to new learning.
However, it is undeniable that the existence of the new learning in Daheng is always at an extremely contradictory level.
The fundamental reason for the industrial revolution in history was that the prevalence of commerce and capital colonized the world, and demand was far greater than supply. The original production method could not keep up with the demand for goods all over the world, and forced the production method to be upgraded.
In other words, for the development of new learning, policy support is a must, and market demand is also a must.
However, the existence of the new learning in Daheng today is only policy support and market demand... it is too small.
After all, today's Daheng is in a mess and still... the people are in a state of poverty and do not have much market demand at all.
This naturally leads to the urgent need for agricultural stability, on the one hand, Daheng is in a state of chaos, and natural disasters continue.
On the one hand, we value business and new learning, and hope that business can drive the development of new learning.
There can be said to be extremely contradictory between the two.
From the perspective of the future, it will be completely unreasonable, deformed and abnormal.
However, under the pressure of strong authority, the two have always maintained a delicate balance.
Nowadays, under the rule of the emperor, everything is very clear.
On the one hand, it is extremely protective of agriculture. Whether it is policy and taxation, or large-scale engineering disaster relief that is unprecedented in history, its fundamental purpose is to protect agriculture and achieve the effect of hiding wealth among the people.
On the one hand, it is the promotion of new learning and the steady advancement of commerce. This advancement is to deliberately suppress the development of commerce when necessary under the premise of protecting agriculture.
Such a contradiction will obviously last for a long time, at least until the goal of hiding wealth among the people is achieved, this contradiction will always exist.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! It is obvious that today, whether it is new learning or business, these two points depend on the support of the emperor's powerful politics.
From the state-owned commercial system established by the emperor to the focus of the powerful and powerful people in Daheng, they were forced to move from agriculture to business by the emperor.
Then to the new education system that relies entirely on policy support...
Business and new learning, these two complementary things that cannot be separated from each other are the shadow of power.
Although this deformity seems to be created by the emperor, it is inevitable in a sense!
In this era of official and power since ancient times, it is basically extremely difficult to see a scene where the barbaric expansion of capital in the West, even forcing the government to control the government.
Even though it was as unsatisfied as in the late Ming Dynasty, the so-called merchants were just white gloves of the powerful.
From beginning to end, it is power, merchandising, not business, and merchandising.
The same is true for Daheng today. If business wants to develop, it will inevitably develop under the influence of the powerful. Whether it is domestic or overseas in the future, its leader must be power.
Shang wants to turn against the guests... With the inertia of Han civilization, if any merchant really succeeds in turning against the guests in the future, that businessman will definitely put his butt on the right position after he takes the position of power, suppressing the merchant without hesitation, and controlling the merchant with power.
The butt determines the head, and thoughts determine behavior.
With thousands of years of civilization inheritance, many things cannot be as barbaric and wanton as the West.
Just like Daheng, who is at its peak now, if the signs of the industrial revolution are revealed, the social environment dominated by the Chinese civilization is dominated by agriculture.
Even if the emperor does not make any statement, a large number of officials will definitely speak out for the people and fight against vested interests in business.
Even if the cruelty of the industrial revolution is staged in Daheng, it will inevitably make many compromises due to the overall social environment dominated by agriculture and the vested interests of business.
This is why the emperor attaches importance to new learning and attacks Confucianism, but has never shaken the foundation of Confucian sages, but only embeds new learning into the theory of sages.
The existence of morality cannot be restricted by law alone. More importantly, it requires a social environment with complete rituals and music, and it needs to be rooted in the subtle influence of thought.
Businessmen or capital ugliness can exploit everything, ignore the law, ignore risks, and only for profit.
However, in this social environment where rituals and music are complete, no matter how ugly commercial capital is, no matter how reckless it is, no matter how ignorant it is, no matter how ignorant the law is.
However, in the face of the moral standards of the entire society, sufficient moral standards must be maintained. Even if it is just a superficial disguise, it must abide by the general environment and standards of the society. Otherwise, it would be impossible to survive in this social environment.
Just like the famous businessmen of all dynasties, no one would be infamous!
No matter how reckless or ruthless everyone acts secretly or is ruthless, they will package themselves on the surface and do all kinds of good deeds and spread their reputation. They are all charitable businessmen, Confucian businessmen, and good businessmen...
Even if they are two equally ugly and wanton businessmen, even if they are both aware of each other, even if they have close friendships and close business cooperation on weekdays.
But when one of them is notorious and moral corruption spreads everywhere, the other one will inevitably immediately cut off relations and stand a clear position.
This is the benefit of the social environment and the completeness of rituals and music.
Invisible moral standards are often much more useful than clear laws and regulations.
Different national conditions are destined. The future of Daheng's business, new learning, and development will inevitably be very different from the Western industrial revolution and colonization of the world in history.
The emperor who dominates everything, facing the unknown future, can only be said to be crossing the river by feeling the stones, taking a step, and seeing a step. If there is any error, you have to adjust your direction or even take a few steps back.
Fortunately, Daheng is still the unquestionable country of the Celestial Empire, and has enough time to slowly try and make mistakes and develop slowly.
The impact of the outside world on Daheng is minimal, and it is even more impossible for any country to interfere in Daheng's internal affairs and the development of Daheng...
