, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the Rise of Rurik!
The prisoners captured in the war against Karelia were cleaned up by the Russian soldiers. As a result, a large number of women moved to Novgorod with the victors.
A new group of black-haired women appeared in the settlements. They each had their own masters. All of them were forced to have a relationship with the conquerors, and then they went to hard labor.
As a prince, Liurik only made a bottom line requirement for his subordinates, because labor is too precious, and the right to life of these women has been recognized by the prince. Deliberate abuse is prohibited. Once the report is investigated, it is true. The parties will be fined.
What kind of waves can the Karelians make? A regional power has clearly broken the backbone, so once you get down, you can't stand up anymore.
With such a simple solution to the threat of the North, the Ross army suffered little damage in the war, and the greatest wealth plundered was the prisoners of war and the herd.
Nowadays, in Shilla Fort and Novgorod, there is a large population of reindeer living in each of the two regions, most of which are legally the property of the royal family. Deer breeders who surrender early are called Lapu people or Sami people.
The most disadvantaged and most lingering group of people in this area, because of the destiny of the whole clan changed because of the presence of Prince Ross. They generally have no ambitions. They just want to live in peace and stability. If grazing the reindeer for the prince can get a stable life, they are willing to do it forever.
After all, the deer-raiser group is a collective term for a group of scattered family clan micro-tribes. They will not be presumptuous because of the high priest of the Duchy of Rus like Lumia, because the national identity has not been developed yet, but a large group is controlled by the Duchy of Rus. Nothing more than the obedient people living in the district.
But there are a large number of people who have naturally recognized the concept of "Rose" since their birth.
If a country exists because of a community imagined by the people, these people are born in this community.
Years ago, the first Slavic women married to the Rus tribe, their eldest children grew to seven years old. Even in accordance with the traditions of the Slavic community, boys and girls have a certain amount of labor when they are five years old and are fully obligated to participate in family labor, and even agricultural labor on traditional farms.
The Principality of Ross goes further, because these children are the baby boom generation!
The population of the Principality is exploding, and the first batch of new forces have begun to be productive. Among them, the number of children aged seven and six, both male and female, has reached 200. They talked about ancestry, they were a mixture of North Germanic Rus and East Slavic Ilmen. Their fathers were both Russ, and they should be Russ.
Since they are descendants of Ross, they must inherit the will of their ancestors, especially boys must have a strong physique, able to excel in logging, fishing, hunting and warfare.
They are not only the children of their parents, but also belong to the Duchy of Ross. Parents do not control the absolute custody of their children. Rurik takes the children away from their parents, organizes wise men to educate them on knowledge, and organizes logging and military training.
A group of children, men and women, will first become masters of wood cutting and firewood cutting, master archery, understand the Latin alphabet, and learn Latin, Gnostic and Cyrillic in a unified manner. They will understand the basic geography of their world, the location of the Duchy of Ross in this area, and the surrounding countries. They will also learn mathematics, especially remember the nine-nine-nine multiplication table.
What Rurik has to do is the original compulsory education, and the start time is the non-agricultural busy period in the warm season. Since there is not much knowledge to be taught at this stage and practicality is particularly emphasized, the young boys of the Sixth Flag team who have been educated for many years are all excellent teachers. In addition, there are ten loyal Slavic maids of their own. Besides their jobs as book clerks and skilled workers, their work is to teach.
This measure is not only aimed at the mixed-race children whose number has increased year by year, especially the local Slav children in Novgorod, but also within the scope of admission management.
If you really want to take the children away from their parents, it will be difficult to implement without giving favors. If an act of force is used, Slavic parents will definitely be afraid.
If the child does not participate in the family or farm work, it is a pure white rice bug and a pure consumer. If the children do not work or consume food at home, the problem will be much less.
At least the residents of the Ross headquarters happily handed over their young children to Prince Rurik. After the policy has been implemented for so many years, the children can eat free meals at the Prince's place. They are raised strong, tall and healthy, saving money as parents. Large expenses for raising children.
This is a government of virtue. The principality bears the cost of food for the educated during the study period, and this is actually the biggest expense for a person's life in the age of productivity.
According to the statistics at hand, how many people are under the direct jurisdiction of the Principality and are under the age of fifteen, the number of children has exceeded 10,000, and it will only soar in the future.
This can be described as an extremely exaggerated data, and Rurik has to feel that when a whole life has improved and a large number of fertile women have joined, it has caused a fertility frenzy in all families.
In reality, Rurik is convinced that his treasury is unable to feed all his children unless he increases various taxes and expands the area of wheat fields.
If the reality is so, then we should give the next best thing, and first notify the core area to manage a group of children.
A group of capable men and women of the Sixth Banner was selected, together with his ten Slavic maids, and the John Invar, a total of forty people were summoned in Rurik in Novgorod's Rus Duma.
In the spacious parliamentary court, the faces of the young people were all sitting together. Unlike the carefree ones of the old guys, these young boys showed a seriousness as a whole.
Rurik clapped his hands in public and announced the beginning of the meeting.
The so-called meeting is actually his preaching: "You have seen it, I recently ordered a group of men to log. They will build another wall in a wasteland in the city. I want to build a group of houses inside the wall. They exist. The only purpose is to educate your other Ross brothers and sisters. You are their teachers and will educate them on language and calculation in the house. You also need to take them to the open and train them in logging, archery, and so on."
They are not so much teachers, they are just a group of children, although they have a body similar to an adult, their faces are especially childish. They sat quietly, staring at the prince's face and listening.
The preaching was very brief. After the speech, Rurik raised his head and asked: "Do you have any questions? Stand up and tell me if you have any questions."
No, John Invall took the lead to stand up.
"Do you... have questions or suggestions?"
"I... I'm just very surprised. My lord, do you really plan to make the whole of Rose be able to use Latin widely?" John Invall's surprised expression was written on his face.
"What? I told you about this a long time ago. Could it be that you thought it was unrealistic."
"No, no! If you are willing to do it, you will be able to succeed. It's just that Latin is the sacred language used by the priests and the language of the Romans. As far as I know, a large number of Frankish nobles are proud to speak Latin. Do you really desire it? Recreating glory in Ross?"
"Re-creation?" Rurik smiled contemptuously, "I just want to create a glorious one, so how about re-creation. You! John Invall, you are the person who understands Latin best here, and I am most optimistic about your educational ability. But. You remember, your responsibility is to teach, not to spread Frank's beliefs."
"Yes. Then, my own child..."
He stopped Rurik at this question.
"Ah!" Rurik patted his forehead, "I have forgotten that you still have a son. I remember your priests are not allowed to marry, but I arranged that woman for you. No problem, I recognize that your child is from the Ross. You will be properly educated. Please rest assured, I will pay you, and you will become a wise man respected by the Ross people."
Teaching and educating people is also labor, and it is a very great labor. They were selected by Rurik on the premise that the "ethics, intellectual, physical, and artistic" were excellent. Anyway, in today's era, there are illiterate people. They are all young wise men. Who will do them if they are not priests?
These people, especially those from the Sixth Banner Team, will temporarily leave their lives there. Theoretically, there will be war in the future and the Sixth Banner Team will have to participate in the war. These people are not within the scope of conscription.
They were the first priests in the Duchy of Ross, and they will begin their first lectures in history in 836.
No one in the Principality of Ross understands the importance of education better than Rurik himself. It is because of his Eastern soul that he understands that the education of children will bring high-quality talents to the entire country. The population of the Principality is still small, and the current situation In this era, only education can improve the overall quality of the people, so as to become a powerful nation.
However, ordinary people only stare at one point, and hand over the child to the prince, who is in charge of the food and is willing to give food and meat.
Rurik made a contract with these overly young priests, and they will be paid very high for their teaching work! The so-called remuneration is actually wheat, and they have actually become the first batch of civil servants in the Principality to earn salaries. They earn 100 pounds of wheat a month, and the salary level is equivalent to the salary that Liu Liqi paid to ordinary mercenaries under his command.
This salary seems to be a lot but not much. The so-called teachers' own land is allocated to the youth city. All teaching work must be in the non-agricultural busy period. This salary will bring 400 to 500 pounds of wheat income to the family every year.
In addition, the teachers will have meals with the students, and the princes actually pay for the food and beverage expenses.
Their level of mathematics is sufficient to calculate the problems in this area, and only a little calculation can get an astonishing number, and they feel that the prince used a lot of wealth to support the children.
In fact, Rurik made a careful calculation in this regard, and came to the conclusion that as long as there is no war to consume the national money, it is possible to raise 10,000 children on the national stockpile every year.
Taking advantage of the meeting, he made further regulations.
Each of the forty teachers has a division of labor, and Rurik also simply divides the subjects he teaches into: mathematics, linguistics, geography, and history. These four subjects will be taught in the classroom, and the largest one is actually outdoor sports.
Children in the Principality, whether male or female, have the obligation to join the army when they grow up. They must receive basic military training from an early age. This is where teachers are really good at it, and there is no need to leave Rick in any fuss.
How to educate a large group of children, Rurik has compiled textbooks for these teachers.
The general knowledge that Rurik possessed surpassed the times. However, children were instilled too much content that they could not understand and absorb, and education started from the simplest aspect.
The most important educational work in the Principality is literacy. The public must at least understand basic mathematical operations and understand text, as well as understand their own past and the real situation of the international situation facing the Principality of Russia.
He came prepared, and the teaching materials needed for indoor education have been prepared!
The ashes ground by the pine glue mixed with the charcoal block are smeared on the wooden board, solidified and then polished, which is a pretty good blackboard. The so-called chalk is easier to manufacture, but it is made by a large amount of calcium carbonate compression mold, and the material is easy to obtain and mass production is not troublesome.
A group of local carpenters received orders from the princes, not only to participate in the manufacture of houses, but also to make wooden tables and benches that exude a strong rosin smell and are quite wet.
As a matter of fact, Lurik had to build the rudimentary school premises in the early stage of the spring plowing operation. As many as 400 men and women have been hired, and the participants have been paid for food.
The school is a system. Although the core is forty teachers, there will still be a group of staff as faculty members. In particular, it is necessary to recruit a group of professional rice cooks to cope with the food for thousands of children.
Rurik officially set the age of entry at six for no particular reason. He just felt that this year was the most correct. A child's indoor cultural education lasts from six to ten years old, and the older one will receive pure physical education and military education. Because the mass production of paper is an indisputable fact, teaching paper is quite abundant, and the examination system can also be implemented.
Although the ancient Russ tradition of "competition for chiefs" has been abolished, at least the Russ are familiar with the set of competition for the upper ranks, which is not essentially different from examinations.
The examination system will be introduced, and the best in the cultural class will be picked up by Lurik, who will be exposed to more advanced knowledge and be transformed into a teacher.
For the time being, Rick has some handwritten textbooks, which can only be in the hands of the teacher. The children can only stare at the blackboard and listen to the teacher's words.
In a few months, the mixed printing of wood type and engraving will be able to mass produce teaching materials, making it feasible for students to have a teaching material in their hands.
How to describe school buildings? Rurik extracted the word "" from Latin, which originally came from ancient Greek, referring directly to the concept of open air school admired by Aristotle.
The meeting was only Rurik's preaching. As the prince, he officially institutionalized the "school" in 836.
He can be sure that all school-age children in White Tree Manor will go to school. No parent is stupid enough to give up the opportunity to save living expenses, and smart parents realize that their children will become smart and healthy for this, so why not do it.
In addition to this, plus the school-age children of all the Ross immigrants living in Lake Ilmen, it is very normal that one thousand to fifteen hundred students are enrolled.
Such a number of students will inevitably bring a lot of pressure on teaching. Lurik remains optimistic, because the system has been established and the general direction is completely correct. If you encounter problems in the middle, you can fix them and everything will be better. ...
"An astonishing number of children are only one or two years old. When those Karelian women have children, there will only be more children in our country, other settlements will also set up branch schools, and more children will go to school. I must expand productivity. , Otherwise it will not be able to fulfill the promise of managing the rice."
Rurik can feel the pressure, at least in recent years, don't worry too much about this.
The children are not a large group of two-legged gold swallowing beasts in their own hands. They will also participate in labor, especially the movement of logging and clearing the land to ask for farmland from the forest. The two-person saw grants weak children the fighting power to destroy the towering trees. The scope of picking branches, collecting pine resin, picking mushrooms, and peeling bark is a major supplement to the labor force of the Principality's material production. The work in this area is entirely adding wealth to the treasury of the Principality, and Rurik estimated that this would certainly offset the wheat and meat he paid for.
The school's buildings have five long-house-type teaching buildings on one floor, each with four compartments, that is, four classes. Naturally, the design is that one compartment is packed with fifty students. As for the independent canteen, there is no independent canteen. There will be professional rice cooks who will deliver the cooked meals directly to the classroom, and the children will use their desks as dining tables.
As for the toilet, this is a must. The urine and feces will be collected, and the stench is the stench. They are fertilizer. Even if many people lack the concept of fertilizer, at least the huge amount of wheat fields they own can be used immediately to supplement nitrogen fertilizer~www.mtlnovel.com~The school will be completed after spring plowing, and Rurik has appointed his wife Svetland Na is the interim principal. When the school officially opens, he will also hold a ceremony and even speak to the children himself.
Spring plowing will soon begin, and the children who are in desperate need of school will be transformed into labor forces to provide logistical assistance to the adults who are sowing and working.
At that time, Lurik will also make a statement of attaching importance to agricultural production, and will personally control the Quyuan Plow to join the spring ploughing.
For myself, the next period of time is destined to be exhausted. In the future, the royal power will continue to be strengthened, and it will be worth the blood and sweat to make Ross stronger.
It was at this time that the Kiev horses floated to the big city Novgorod on the northern shore of Lake Ilmen on the long boat of the Ostara people, with the precious and expensive Pecheneg Turkic horses, and they were also them. The end of the journey.
In this way, Rurik and Ma Ke were shocked by the appearance of each other, and then an inexplicable sense of intimacy made them friendly.
After all, who would refuse friendly business dealings? Only fools will.
