Chapter 1405 Migration Road (VIII)

Since he took the initiative to ask, the officials here can answer it themselves.

Moreover, the allusion of the confrontation between Zhou and Zheng was mentioned at the beginning, which clearly set the tone: what is done here is not righteous, but a little evil.

Since Mr. Private School accepts it, it is not so difficult to accept if he takes two more steps on the wrong path.

Just as the leading official said, this group of people from the Shi School can be considered Confucian scholars according to the classification of the Yan and Li School. After all, they are also learning the art of a gentleman, but their focus is different.

But when it comes to things like scripture allusions, they still know a little less.

This is not just a matter of specializing in academics, but the practical school of learning has a lot to learn, and they really don’t have the conditions to read the sages’ articles thoroughly.

The most basic book must be read.

Zhou Zheng's cross talk is a well-known allusion to almost any scholar, and he must also know it.

He can also recite a few verses from the Book of Songs and recite a few poems such as "The world is under heaven first" and "the world is after".

But when it comes to something more in-depth, they know less. There are tons of ancient books, but they can only be considered classics, and it will take more than ten years of training to gain some basic skills. But people from the Practical School don’t have time to spend on this aspect, and Dashun also doesn’t lack people with ancient knowledge who have been trained for more than ten years. A history book that has been simplified to facilitate instilling consciousness.

The reason why we should pay attention to such private school teachers here is because they are valued in Dashun, and the Practical School is a marginalized person in Dashun. There is no need for the Practical School to lead the inclusion of ancient learning courses. On the contrary, the Practical School has been striving for Join the scope of traditional education.

When we get here, it's the other way around. The Dashunshi School is the main force leading the industrial and commercial development of immigrants. Traditional scholars are scarce, so we should focus on the content of ancient studies here.

After roughly explaining this situation to Mr. Private School, Mr. Private School could understand most of the content and said: "So, I am not teaching in Maplewood Bay, but I want to continue to move eastward?"

The leading official smiled and said: "That's right. There are certainly benefits, such as free land for children and grandchildren, etc. There must be some. In addition, teaching here can be regarded as eating royal food. When you can't teach anymore, When you move...although you are not qualified to be an official, you still have enough money for grain, rice and money every month. Most of the August 1st tax is spent here. "

"You also know that most of the taxes levied here will be spent here. There is no gold and silver in the early stage, but the real objects cannot be discounted. As long as the taxes come up, it will definitely be guaranteed."

"In fact, it is best to ask those who have feelings, believe in the words of the saints, and are willing to act on such matters. But if you ask them to go, there is still some change."

"Although their beliefs are strong, it is not good to be too strong. They will inevitably teach some principles that they think are correct."

"So for this matter, you have to choose to study for a living. The salary will not be bad, I dare not say if it is more, but at least it is better than when I was teaching in my hometown."

This sounds like a bit of a curse, saying that the private school teacher is not strong-willed or does not teach for lofty ideals, but only such people can be used.

But that's actually it. It is not that there are no Confucian scholars in Dashun who have ideals, but just because they have ideals, they cannot use them yet.

Confucianism is not Christianity and there is no heaven. But Confucianism has the rule of three generations, which contains political ambitions and ideals.

The stronger the belief, the deeper the understanding of political ideas. Things like the selection of talented people, the governance of the members' assembly, the feudal concept of counties and counties, the strictness of etiquette and etiquette, the practice of ancient methods in villages and communities, etc. are all painful things. If you really play here, you will probably "force" people to the Protestant side. After all, the ideological basis of the Protestant religion is the self-cultivated farmers, small producers, and the former kind of private ownership.

Therefore, we really cannot use the group of Confucian scholars who have particularly firm beliefs and have a clear blueprint. That group of people can be thrown into Honolulu, but not here.

Because the native people of Honolulu, their productivity level, can seamlessly connect to something retro and even progressive.

And here, the productivity level of immigrants and their retro style can be directly defined as reactionary.

The East Coast has already demonstrated once what the unity of politics and religion means, so there is no need to go through it again here.

Since the ultimate goal is to destroy all feudal, patriarchal and idyllic relationships. It is necessary to erase the sacred halo of all professions that have always been respected and awe-inspiring, and turn teachers and priests into wage laborers paid for by it.

Then, it is natural to recruit people who have already integrated themselves into this kind of social existence, rather than relying on a group of people whose families are so wealthy that they are out of work and pondering the teachings of retro saints to integrate into this set of things.

Although I dare not say that all those retro-style Confucian scholars in Dashun have wealthy enough families to study outside their jobs, it is probably not an exaggeration to say that 70 to 80 percent of them are. Many of their ideas are just figments of their minds after they have been out of work for a long time.

Since this is the case, we can't talk too much about feelings, but we have to talk about more interests.

There are some feelings that cannot be discussed in Dashun. They cannot be discussed - not being afraid of sacrifice and hard work, but there is also a purpose behind it, striving for greater victory. And how to define this victory? Whose victory? This cannot be discussed or discussed in Dashun.

If we can't talk about it, we won't talk about it. Let's talk about interests.

Talk about preferential treatment for future children when they buy land, talk about the August 1st tax to allow teachers to eat royal food, and talk about providing living security when they can no longer work.

After clearly handing over the actual benefits and future pie to the private school teacher.

The leading official said: "There are two purposes for this matter."

"First, the garrison expands the border and occupies some key places first."

"Second, we need cattle and horses over there for trade. The French are short of food, and we are short of cattle and horses here."

"But it doesn't mean we should go now."

"First, we need to select hardworking young men with wives and children at home, go there for two years, repair the fort and reclaim the land. Take the wives and children as "hostages" and hold them in Fenglin Bay."

"You will work in Fenglin Bay for the time being, and migrate eastward in one or two years. But before that, you have to "go to school" and learn some things, things about teaching."

"Everything is in its infancy, so although you don't cultivate the land, it won't be easy. Teach in the morning and study in the afternoon. In the early stage, life is difficult, and you will definitely have enough food and drink, but that's all. After all, in order to migrate people, we have to accumulate food here..."

When the private school teacher heard the allusion of "Zhou Zheng's hostage", he knew that the group of people who continued to expand eastward must have wives and children, otherwise what would they hostage?

As for pledging parents... how should I put it, it's not very useful. Although theoretically according to cultural tradition, pledging parents is more "valuable" than pledging wife and children, but theory is theory and reality is reality.

He also looked at the treatment given to him. It should be said that if these cakes can be cashed in the future, it will be very good.

Because he knew some ownership issues of Dashun immigrants here. The land was owned by the court, and it didn't mean that anyone who wanted to reclaim it could do so.

Even if the first batch of people didn't pay.

But that's just that the money was not paid from them, but it was equivalent to the money paid by the gold-digging company.

If his descendants want to reclaim land in the future, they have to spend money.

And those who "eat the emperor's grain" can benefit their children, not their grandchildren, but their children can get 120 acres of land for free, which is also considered to be a blessing.

Of course, this emperor's grain is not delicious.

In fact, after the Dashun reform, many new occupations that eat emperor's grain were added. But the common feature of these occupations is that it is difficult to eat emperor's grain.

For example, surveying, sailors, marines, and seafarers... None of them are easy jobs.

And the teachers here are not easy either.

At least it was definitely not easy in the early stage. Not only did they have to teach, but they also had to continue "learning", and it could even be considered "going to school" again.

Although they studied in private schools, literacy itself was a scarce talent at that time. Since they were able to pass the examination for a scholar, they were at least one in a hundred, and their learning ability could be guaranteed to be somewhat good.

There are many things to learn, and the most basic general education must be completed. Although it may be the level of elementary school natural science textbooks in later generations, it is a must to learn. It is impossible to expect a group of people who don't know the principles of wind, rain, thunder, lightning, and the round earth to insist on being at the forefront of the fight against Catholic missionaries.

The private school teacher seriously considered the pros and cons and felt that this was completely acceptable, but it was just the hardship of two or three years of initial enlightenment. I came here from my hometown, vomited a lot of bile all the way, and I survived the six-month journey, so this is not bad.

Then he said, "In that case, I am willing. Have the people who continue to migrate eastward across the mountains been selected?"

The leading official hummed and said nothing more.

But in fact, it has been basically finalized. When the time comes, they will be notified according to the list and will set off in a few days.

The first choice is to come with parents and wives. There are not many people in the first batch. The main purpose is to go there to build simple defenses and cultivate some basic farmland to prepare for continued immigration next year.

This money is naturally paid from the funds raised by the company, on the grounds of security expenditure. Anyway, Dashun is now at a stage where it can blow a bubble of a franchise company. With the foundation laid before, how to use this money will be decided by the court within five years.

The purpose is to first block some key locations such as the upper reaches and forks of rivers flowing to the east coast. Now the east-west traffic can only go by river. If the river is blocked, the follow-up will be much simpler; if the river cannot be blocked, it will be all trouble in the future.

Another reason is to balance the forces of all parties in North America, provide food to France, and prepare cattle and horses for large-scale immigrants here.

After all, France has a lot of cattle and horses in the Great Lakes region. Many horses are used to exchange fur with Indians. They are called "moose dogs" by Indians because Indians have never seen horses but have seen moose and dogs. Naturally, they will give such a strange name, which can be exchanged for a lot of good things.

And these Catholic countries in Europe are really good at animal husbandry. France itself is a big animal husbandry country, and Spain also has many talents in animal husbandry.

If Dashun transports cattle and horses from the mainland to this side, it is okay if the number is small and the time is not urgent.

But now, once immigration is started, it cannot be less or not urgent. It is just right for the two sides to complement each other.

To the west of the Rocky Mountains, relying on gold and silver mines, the commercialization of grain is completed and land reclamation is promoted.

To the east, it depends on the advantages of water transportation in the upper reaches of the river, trade between France and Indians, and trade of mountain products between China and France to promote land reclamation.

Gold mines are good, but gold and silver will always be mined out. With the current population of Dashun, what Liu Yu really coveted was the three grassland provinces and the northern wheat region.

For the immigrants who have already come here, they certainly don't want to continue migrating and continue to move east. Because the court can no longer give more benefits, there is no difference for farmers to farm here or there.

But there is no way, many people think that the migration has ended. In fact, it has not ended. Soon, another group of people will be forced to migrate to complete the migration that has not been completed.

Moreover, this kind of coercion is more evil than before. It is not only to instill consciousness in the next generation by holding hostages, but also because the children are now a burden during the development period.

Those who do not have wives, children and parents are not candidates for this forced migration to the grassland area for reclamation. Without "hostages", there may be large-scale escapes in the early stage. Because the early development will be very hard, and there will be many restrictions, and it may be that all the food in the first few years will be collected to trade cattle and horses.
