My Parents Are Omnipotent

  Chapter 432 Changing the pattern

  Papermaking and printing can reduce the cost of books. After the promotion of Chinese Pinyin, it can solve the problem of insufficient teachers to a certain extent. The combination of the two will inevitably usher in a breakthrough growth in the popularity of reading among poor students.

  In this way, the personal interests and family interests of those rich and noble people who have almost monopolized all educational resources will inevitably be greatly impacted.

   Not to mention anything else, just above the court, the aristocratic family will never occupy more than 80% of the court officials like the previous dynasty Dazhou.

  At least half of their descendants will be squeezed out by the poor children who have been given the opportunity to change their destiny. This is simply a huge disaster for them.

   Sensing danger, they will inevitably launch a frenzied counterattack immediately. In this way, Ye Anlan, who caused this series of incidents, will immediately become the target of public criticism for no reason.

   That's why she pulled Xie Yuan out to use herself as a shield before she started to do anything.

   It is true that her small body simply cannot withstand the concentrated fire attacks from those aristocratic families.

   "You really... will give me problems." Xie Yuan sighed with distress, "Now that Daqi is waiting for success, can't you wait for two years before striking hard?"

Ye Anlan disagreed with him, "Now is the time when the civil servants are the weakest and you, the founding emperor, are the most powerful. If you really wait for two years, then they will completely control the court by then. Don't we have to Are your hands and feet bound?"

  Xie Yuan: ...There seems to be some truth in what he said.

Ye Anlan continued to work hard, "Don't you want to get rid of the many constraints from the aristocratic family, truly become an emperor with eloquent words, and show off your talents? Think about it, if everyone in the world can read, then those who are truly talented Can you stand out? If they compete for excellence, don’t you have more possibilities to promote talents and revitalize Daqi?”

  For the sake of future generations, aristocratic families often devote countless resources to their own ineffective children and grandchildren.

   To put it bluntly, in terms of their training method, smarter pigs can learn better than their useless children and grandchildren.

  But these people who obviously don't have enough brains, or who obviously don't work hard, can become officials just by their birth.

  For one thing, while their family gave them the opportunity to read and write, it also extinguished the possibility of their peers reading and writing to the greatest extent, helping them defeat most of their opponents at the root.

  Secondly, each of their families has their own connections. With these connections, they can easily get a large or small official position in the court through the exchange of benefits.

  If things go on like this, the court will be full of their in-laws, old friends, classmates and friends. When these people unite, even Xie Yuan, who is the emperor, will inevitably be constrained by them.

In fact, Ye Anlan was not the first to realize this problem. Before Daqi, there were many emperors who vigorously promoted humble scholars. However, limited by educational resources and personal connections, those humble scholars who could really make a name for themselves and enter the emperor's vision It is difficult to compete with the children of the family in both quantity and quality.

   Unlike now, Ye Anlan came up with a technology that could change the fate of scholars in the world, and gave Xie Yuan a great opportunity to change the world and the court structure.

  Although this opportunity comes with risks that are comparable to the benefits, Xie Yuan is still reluctant to give up this sweet cake that may make him a thorn in the eyes of some guys.

  As Ye Anlan said, he wanted to be a truly eloquent emperor, to show off his talents, and to develop Daqi into a unique super empire.

   "Done!" Xie Yuan slapped the table, "But we can't take the lead in this matter."

  He is the founding king of the country, and his existence itself is a deterrent to those aristocratic families. He has to protect himself, and he can't just release himself as a shield for Ye Anlan.

   At the same time, he didn't want to give up the opportunity Ye Anlan gave.

  He quickly went through the available staff in his mind, "Let Han Rong take the lead in this matter. He is from a family and knows the routines of the family very well."

  Ye Anlan pursed her lips, "He's not very particular about women, aren't you afraid that he will be pulled down by his pigtails immediately?"

  Xie Yuan smiled, "He's a ghost, otherwise he wouldn't be able to enjoy himself for so many years without being caught."

Han Rong's purpose has never been sensual enjoyment. He seems to hook up with women unintentionally, just to make people fall in love with him. This kind of behavior makes people want to beat him to death, but he really won't Because of his bad taste, people caught him and killed him.

"And I don't intend to hand over the core technology to him." Xie Yuan is not the kind of person who would rob subjects under the banner of "considering the overall situation". Since Ye Anlan brought the technology, he would never Take the benefits of this piece to others.

  He intends to hold the core technology in his own hands, and then pay Ye Anlan dividends according to the agreed ratio.

  As for Han Rong, his role is to relieve the king's worries and take the thunder for the king o()o

  The two villains muttered and discussed together, and happily decided on the follow-up matters.

  ＊＊＊

  In February of the following year, when the Spring Festival was just around the corner, all prefectures and counties in Daqi opened a chain bookstore named "Wenhuazhai" at the same time.

  The concept of chain bookstores was also copied by Ye Anlan from modern times. Xie Yuan approached Han Rong, handed over the management rights of chain bookstores to him, and asked him to keep the identity of his big boss behind the scenes strictly confidential.

   In return, Xie Yuan will give Han Rong 30% of the bookstore’s bonus every year, and he also promised that if Han Rong does well, Xie Yuan will find a reason to promote him from the third class to the first class in ten years.

  Han Rong is the current helm of the Han family, he has no shortage of money, and the title is just icing on the cake for the Han family who inherits poetry and books.

  In Han Rong's plan, although their family is now a distinguished family, in the future, his children, nephews and grandchildren will continue to follow the path of civil servants through the imperial examination.

  So compared to title and money, he valued Xie Yuan's favor and trust in him more.

   Acting as a shield for the emperor is not a job that everyone can do.

  Of course there are dangers in doing this job, but is there anything in this world that can be rewarding without danger?

  If you want to obtain an identity, power, and reputation far beyond ordinary people...you have to endure dangers and hardships far beyond ordinary people.

  Han Rong quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart, and then happily accepted the secret mission Xie Yuan gave him.

   Isn't it just a shield, he is.

   Gaining both fame and fortune can also win the favor of the emperor, which is a good thing that kills three birds with one stone. He can't push it to others just because he is cowardly.
