The opening of a school did not attract anyone to realize it at the beginning. There have been examples of the opening of official school in the past, but it has not been so extensive.
Many students are watching this with the mind to watch the excitement.
Zhou Rong also picked a few helpers, Lin Yuan told him, but Lin Yuan would provide whatever he needed.
So Zhou Rong chose more than ten students, all of whom had real talents, but several of them had embarrassed Zhou Rong.
At this time, Zhou Rong was singled out by Zhou Rong, and his face was a bit unbearable. He narrowly felt that Zhou Rong was taking this opportunity to hit them in the face to show his generosity.
Some people who are not narrow-minded feel that Zhou Rong is broad-minded and does not hold grudges.
But when they discovered that the students they recruited would be the sons of the people, their opposition was unprecedented.
"Zhou Rong! What do you mean!"
"The lowly people are worthy of reading the sage book?!"
"I'll wait and disdain to join you!"
"I'm resigning myself, so you can do it yourself!"
Zhou Rong sneered and said, "If you want to go, please go."
Sixteen people, ten left in an instant, and six were at a loss, not knowing what to do.
It's hard to get a job. The adults in the family are counting on them to take this opportunity to become an official. How can they explain when they leave now?
The six people stayed.
The people Zhou Rongchong left behind said, "Go ahead."
The six people continued to read the booklet. They had to select the books for students of different ages to study, and each of them had to list them.
Lin Yuan booked them for a total of three main courses and one elective course.
Chinese learning, arithmetic, etiquette.
Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are optional courses, and students choose which one to study.
Not only did they have to select the book, but they had to revise it themselves. More than a dozen people were not enough. What's more, there were only six people left, even if Zhou Rong was added, there were only seven. Zhou Rong had to find someone again.
It is a pity that after the propaganda of the ten people, the scholars were not willing to join Zhou Rong.
Zhou Rong now understands why his Majesty wants to attack the family.
The power of the aristocratic family is too great. They represent scholars of the world and scholars of the world. When they gather to oppose something, even the imperial power can only regress and bow for it.
Just as peaceful as today, the family has not recovered its vitality.
If you don't care about it at this time, you won't be able to care about it until all the dust settles in the future.
Zhou Rong pursed his lips, remembering his drunken question to his Majesty why he must be so to the family.
His Majesty told him that he can divide the power, but he can divide it, and others cannot take the initiative to take it. Whoever takes it, he will cut off his hand.
At this time, Lin Yuan was discussing taxation with Wu Changqing.
The people have been exempted from taxes for five years. Lin Yuan is not worried that the people below will behave badly. At this time, his appeal is unprecedented. No one dares to hide the tax exemption from him.
And the courage of the people was also raised by him.
Especially in Gaoyou, many Gaoyou people have a small amount of money and find that there are fewer job opportunities in Gaoyou, so they take the initiative to leave home and go to other big cities to look for opportunities. Naturally, they also take the customs and habits that Gaoyou has re-bred.
Many people's homes will enshrine a statue of Lin Yuan.
Although Lin Yuan was still alive, it seemed a little unlucky, but Lin Yuan did not stop it either.
Every place under Lin Yuan's rule has people beating gongs and drums to promote tax exemption.
The slogan is also very simple-
"The emperor said that no land tax will be collected for five years!"
"The official tax collector must beheaded!"
Of course, land tax is not collected, and other taxes still have to be collected.
"Personal tax must be collected, business tax must be collected." Lin Yuan said to Wu Changqing, "The tax law needs to be changed."
Wu Changqing: "Weichen must supervise."
Lin Yuan smiled: "Remember, don't worry, slowly change it, the people will not be able to undergo major changes."
Wu Changqing lowered his head. His Majesty is still the same. He is like the most gentle mother to the people, and he will feel distressed if he exerts a little force.
Only for officials, it is more severe than the strictest father.
The servant at the door said: "Your Majesty, Song Xiang is here."
Lin Yuan: "Call him in."
Song Shizhao walked into the study, and as soon as he was about to bow, he heard Lin Yuan say: "Mr. Come here, there is no need to bow."
Song Shizhao walked over.
He didn't dare to sit until Lin Yuan told him to sit down.
"I invite you to discuss it with you." Lin Yuan took a sip of tea, "I want to re-compile the civil law."
Song Shizhao said quickly: "Your Majesty has a foresight."
Song Shizhao again said: "Your Majesty, in troubled times, we should use heavy codes."
Lin Yuan waved his hand.
The meaning of Song Shizhao's heavy code is simple. It is to make the punishment more severe and the crime cost higher. This also has the advantage that it can eliminate the opposing forces, or the forces that Lin Yuan dislikes, and strengthen the centralization.
But the problem is that this will definitely lead to many unjust, false and wrong cases.
Lin Yuan: "This time we need to improve all aspects, there must be laws to follow, and the country must be governed by law, and you have heard clearly that it is the civil code, not the criminal law."
Song Shizhao and Wu Changqing were both stunned.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid..." Song Shizhao sighed, "It's difficult."
Lin Yuan: "It is precisely because of difficulties that I want to put this matter into your hands."
Only by enacting new laws and governing the country can laws be followed to ensure national development.
In those days, France relied on Napoleon's "Civil Code" to consolidate the achievements of the French Revolution, and also prompted France to repeatedly sweep the remaining feudal forces, and finally became a powerful capitalist country.
Lin Yuan is not prepared to take the capitalist road, mainly because of social development restrictions, but he can lay the foundation for ruling the country by law.
He is not going to go too far ahead.
As the name suggests, the Civil Code is in charge of people's livelihood, not criminal law.
There are very few legal documents on people's livelihood.
Regardless of the marriage law, labor law, there are almost no clear provisions.
Most of them are governed by existing folk customs and customs. Every folklore is different, and officials' governance methods are also different.
For example, in some places, adultery is a serious crime, but the crime does not lead to death.
But in some places, adultery is a capital crime, and both men and women are lynched.
And many of them were lynched by the patriarchs of a clan, and there was no need to report to the government. When the time comes, the cause of the illness and death will be reported.
The people are not taken seriously.
There are laws for crimes, but there is no way to rely on people's livelihood.
Song Shizhao touched his goatee: "I am afraid it will be difficult to fix it in three to five years."
Lin Yuan smiled but didn't smile: "Students all over the world are for you to use. Within one year, I will see the first edition."
Song Shizhao: "The ministers follow the decree."
Wu Changqing also hurriedly said: "The minister abides by the order."
Lin Yuan said: "Sir, you come to the editor-in-chief, and Wu Qing is your deputy. You two should work together. If you are not sure, you can ask me, okay?"
Song Shizhao smiled, and the folds on his face were packed together.
——
Soon, Wu Changqing came to ask Lin Yuan.
"Song Xiang said he would abolish concubine Ji." Wu Changqing didn't understand, "Abolition, they can not raise children?"
Lin Yuan: "No."
Wu Changqing breathed a sigh of relief: "It doesn't make sense to waste it."
Lin Yuan smiled and said: "There can be no concubines in the law. It is their business that they are willing to raise women. The officials seize a woman who raises a woman privately and dismiss it, and the people don't care."
Wu Changqing understands, this is the officer's again.
Being an official is really bad luck.
Lin Yuan: "If they can hide from everyone, that would be considered a skill."
The purpose of this law is that it no longer protects the rights and interests of concubines, that is, they cannot get any status except money, and are not recognized by the society. Although the children still have inheritance rights, they cannot rely on this to change their own Own class.
As society calms down and the economy recovers, this law can make many women no longer choose to be concubines.
However, officials cannot accept concubines, and private concubines will be dismissed if they are caught.
Merchants are not even qualified to take concubines.
But eradication is impossible. There is no such thing as a concubine in modern times, but mistresses are also emerging in endlessly.
As long as men have money and women want money, they can’t help it.
But the law will not protect them.
Wu Changqing asked again: "Mr. Song said that you cannot have a wife, you can only have peace."
Lin Yuan patted his thigh and said with a smile: "Those who know me, Song Shizhao is too!"
Wu Changqing: "..."
Lin Yuan turned his head to look at him: "What's unclear?"
Wu Changqing whispered: "But what if a woman has no virtue and is dead and disagreeable?"
Lin Yuan thought for a while: "You can sue the officer. If you find out that there is no morality, you can be sentenced if you have evidence. For the same reason, women can also sue the officer."
Wu Changqing's eyes widened: "This, this... and Song Xiang also said that after a man and a woman get married, if they divorce, the property earned during the relationship between husband and wife is divided into half..."
Lin Yuan laughed: "Mr. Song, he is simply the roundworm in my stomach."
Wu Changqing was silly, he didn't expect Lin Yuan to support Song Shizhao.
"How can this, this?" Wu Changqing said anxiously. "Since ancient times, men have been busy traveling, women only attending the house, and sending back the dowry after leaving is the ultimate goal. There is still half of the difference?"
Lin Yuan thought for a while: "Then add the dowry and divide it in half."
Wu Changqingmu is out.
Lin Yuan gave an example: "Think about your daughter if she gets married and is disgusted by her husband and divorces her. She has a bad reputation and can't marry again. You can take her home, but what happens after you die?"
Wu Changqing: "My son will support his sister."
Lin Yuan: "What about the daughter-in-law? It's heaven for children to support their parents. Where is the saying that older brothers support sisters and younger brothers support sisters?"
Wu Changqing thought of his daughter and admitted that what Lin Yuan said was reasonable.
Lin Yuan also said: "Nowadays, there are more cues. If the door-to-door son-in-law reconciles with his wife, he can also be divided into half of the husband and wife's property."
Wu Changqing: "But the son-in-law in the world is less than 10%..."
Lin Yuan sighed: "Then you encourage them to become more son-in-laws."
Wu Changqing: "Your Majesty, you need to think twice about this matter!"
Lin Yuan nodded: "That's why I told you to take your time. Then let me leave my wife abolished first without mentioning property matters."
"Only peace and separation, no wives."
Wu Changqing breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Your Majesty Shengming."
As soon as he fell silent, he heard Lin Yuan say: "Property, let's talk about it in five years."
The opening of a school did not attract anyone to realize it at the beginning. There have been examples of the opening of official school in the past, but it has not been so extensive.
Many students are watching this with the mind to watch the excitement.
Zhou Rong also picked a few helpers, Lin Yuan told him, but Lin Yuan would provide whatever he needed.
