When the whole world focused on the last eight-strand scientific expedition in Chinese history, Jiang Tian knew that the time for his reform had not yet come, because no matter how the old school downplayed the influence of Qiu Tian's twists and turns, it was impossible for the scientific expedition to completely cover up the Chinese land issue, even if he received Zhang Tao's secret decree, he still had the patience to wait for the right time, so the most important palace examination in the scientific expedition began without any turmoil.

Although the Chinese Dynasty continued the system of dividing the north and south, but because the north was destroyed more strictly, even the economic production has not been fully restored, how can it be compared with the lifting of the south of the Yangtze River. Everyone was not surprised by this result, but because there was something wrong with the research of the Academy of Sciences, Jiang Tian had to sit and preside over the work, so he did not participate in the palace examination that day. However, from the transcript of the top test paper he obtained later, he still saw that this scientific expedition still selected outstanding talents in the traditional sense. For example, on the issue of land annexation in the policy theory, the champion said this: since ancient times, the whole world is not the king's land, and the soldiers of the handsome land are not the king's ministers, so the ministers are patrolling the territory on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and the previous dynasty gave preferential treatment to the scholars and allowed them not to pay grain taxes......

Although it is said in the vernacular, this person blames the fault on the yeoman farmers who exploited legal loopholes in order to avoid taxes, and also denigrated that the scholars should not forget the teachings of the sages, and pointed out that this was a defect in policy formulation and many other factors led to the land chaos in the late Ming Dynasty, and when natural and man-made disasters were encountered, the foundation of the Ming rule was destroyed. It sounds like there is a meaning of fifty boards each, but this not only caters to the traditional civil officials try to dilute their greedy mentality, but also points out the many reasons why the peasants can casually serve and the national policy is not sound, it can be said that he not only really saw the essence of the land problem, but also did not offend the gentry and big landlords in Jiangnan, but also in order to cater to the emperor who promoted the vernacular, and did not use the ancient style of literary and classical Chinese and did not quote scriptures, and the whole article can be read even by a newly enlightened child. And understand the complexity of the land issue, so when Jiang Tian saw this article, he understood that this was a sleek panacea. And learned from Tian Xuhai that although this person's eight shares were not bad, they were originally ranked after more than a dozen, and it was completely Emperor Zhang who was directly promoted to the position of the top champion after seeing his masterpiece, which shows that this person's strategy is successful. As for this policy, in the eyes of officials like Ning Jiao, it is not so rebellious, and now that his descendants cannot enjoy tax exemption after his death, taking the initiative to reduce the land under his name seems to be in line with the trend and showing favor to the emperor.

Jiang Tian took the article and thought about it, and then nodded thoughtfully: "What is the name of this champion?" ”

Tian Xuhai hurriedly replied: "This person's surname is Cai, and his name is Shouxin." ”

"Cai Shouxin?" Jiang Tian muttered: "I hope he can keep this heart!" ”

Jiang Tian's words were not heard by others, and even if they did, they would not understand the true meaning, because only he understood Zhang Tao's intention of handing out this person. According to the rules, the top list of Jinshi should select the best group of people to enter the Hanlin Academy, do copywriting work for a few years, and become familiar with officialdom, before waiting for the opportunity to be released as officials. However, Zhang Tao, who was not interested in the scientific examination, would attach so much importance to this person, which means that he has taken a fancy to the views in this article, and in the upcoming land reform movement, he is likely to be used as the executor of the new policy. That's why Jiang Tian was skeptical about whether he could withstand the test.

Putting aside the emotion in his heart, Jiang Tian squatted at the Academy of Sciences this time to preside over the work, many people thought that this was a continuation of the attitude of avoiding suspicion when marking the papers, after all, when he opened a cram school at the beginning, some people said that this was a gang, showing that whether it was marking the papers or the final palace exam, Jiang Tian hid far away, so as to prove to the world that he had no intention of being a friend. In fact, anyone who thinks so is a gentleman with the heart of a villain, because for Jiang Tian, he doesn't need to win over anyone at all, his status in Zhang Tao's heart has surpassed all officials, and even higher than the victorious King Ji, of course, the reason is not something that everyone can guess, and in the Ji Wangbiao, he deliberately avoided government affairs, except for occasionally caring about army construction, he just concentrated on being a peaceful prince now, and it seems that his Jiang Tian's political status is not ordinary. As for his ability to put down his work and concentrate on staying at the Academy of Sciences, it is because the industrial preparation of sulfuric acid and soda ash has entered a critical period.

In a col far from the city of Beijing, there are two courtyards that occupy a large area, these are the two factories in trial operation, sulfuric acid is extracted from sulfur and pyrite, and caustic soda is causticized with purchased trona. These two small factories were completely pre-industrial experiments, so they were built in the col out of secrecy, and the actual factory will be set up in the future, so the problem of wastewater treatment and reuse will be considered, so the mountainous area is not suitable for such factories. However, because these two products are very dangerous, and their properties are as incompatible as water and fire, not to mention that Jiang Tian is not worried about the safety of trial production, even Zhang Tao is worried about the safety of trial production. Jiang Tian's purpose here is not only to supervise production safety, but also to recall what he has learned, find ways to recycle production waste, and minimize environmental problems. So this is really inseparable from him, the only person who has received a systematic chemistry education, and even Song Yi is not qualified to speak here.

Jiang Tian's angry roar echoed in the valley: "How many times have I said it, how can I just take my words as a deaf ear!" ”

Seeing that a worker whose arm was burned by Yan Zhan was doing emergency treatment, Song Yi didn't know how to answer. This kind of accident has occurred many times, and the workers also have an intuitive understanding of what they produce, but ignoring the safety production regulations and not paying attention to the wearing of protective equipment still occurs from time to time, and it can only be said that the people of this era because the scientific education they receive is almost zero, so the understanding of strictly abiding by the scientific and systematic work is almost zero, if the smelting plant is because everyone is more afraid of the boiling molten iron, so how much can also pay attention to safety regulations. When you get here, no one will feel the slightest danger of concentrated acid and alkali, at most the taste is pungent, but after being equipped with a thicker mask mixed with charcoal, it is not unacceptable, so the operation is extremely casual and rough, and there are frequent accidents, and Song Yi has nothing to do about it.

Jiang Tian, who was trying to calm his feelings, recalled the various systems of later generations in his mind, and he found that he had made a mistake of principle, because people's inertia could not be corrected by simple education and intimidation, and the workers either disliked the protective gear too cumbersome and stuffy, or they were trying to save trouble and were uneasy about the standardized operation, and they always had a trace of luck in their hearts about the possibility of accidents, thinking that they might not be so unlucky, so the key to the problem was not how many times they repeated the precautions. It's not that they are touched by the bloody lesson after seeing it, the key is whether there is a punishment mechanism to put an end to their luck mentality. For example, if it is directly linked to their income, what if the violator is held accountable even if there is no accident?

Thinking of this, he said to Song Yi: "Dexin, you go and inform the person in charge of each team, from now on, every worker who violates discipline will be deducted the bonus of the month, if there is an accident in which team, the person in charge will be held accountable, if there is a life or a serious safety accident, the official will definitely send him to the court to be assigned to the northwest!" ”

Not to mention, Jiang Tian finally remembered the responsibility and accountability mechanism after a detour, the workers who came to work in this kind of factory were all going for extremely high salaries, not only the basic salary of three silver dollars per month, but also bonuses in various names such as toxic work, vegetable subsidies, and safety production, which added up to two or three yuan, and stipulated that at least four days off per month should be taken off, this kind of treatment was simply unimaginable elsewhere, so even if their lives were in danger, these workers still did not flinch, But once they violate the rules, their income may be halved, and even if a team member makes a mistake, the entire team will be implicated, which is intolerable, so under the pressure of money, even the most free and loose people must pay attention to the rules and regulations in the production specifications.

It is precisely because of the establishment of this accountability mechanism that the speed of trial production can be accelerated, so that Jiang Tian has basically established the production process, except for the defect that the concentration of sulfuric acid is at most more than 60 percent, the production of caustic soda is basically perfect, but the production of this causticizing method requires a drying tank covering a wide area, which is a big problem for the location of the future factory. So after seeing that the work was basically completed, Jiang Tian returned to the capital and prepared to complete another task of Zhang Tao. After the lively release of the list, Beijing City gradually returned to tranquility from the noise, and the candidates who won the gold list also went to worship the mountain head to recognize the teacher everywhere, so there was also such a group of self-made smart people in front of the Jiang Mansion who handed over the post, but in terms of numbers, they were far from others. Jiang Tian shook his head and smiled with these prayer notes, when his folds were handed over to the center, these people would definitely scatter in an instant, so as to clear up their relationship.

If Qiu Tian's twist and turn was the beginning of China's land reform, then what happened immediately afterwards was the first move of Jiang Tian, who was known as a reform moderate, and his opponents were not only traditional civilian forces, but also included Zhang Tao, the emperor of heaven who had always called him a brother and sister, so history also called this event the first split of the reformers. The historical significance of this incident is not easy to define in later generations, or the controversy about this matter in later generations has not stopped, because many people think that Jiang Tian's actions of offending the emperor in order to maintain the status of the royal family are really incomprehensible, but this is the opinion of hindsight, and at that time, Jiang Tian's twists and turns were even if they went against Zhang Tao's original intention, but in the eyes of those traditional civil officials, it was definitely a flood of beasts, because in addition to proposing to check the actual number of acres of land in the country, It is also under construction to establish a groundbreaking land inheritance tax in China!
