Chapter 228: The Imperial Complaint?
Shuntianfu Yin Wangjie is upright and strong, when the second class jinshi was released as a county order, he dared to be hard top with the prefect, but the prefect was corrupt, and a group of Maitreya disciples suddenly appeared in the territory, and the same knowledge and general judgment were so frightened that they fled, but his county order was hidden by the people who loved him, and then he actually summoned the people who dared to die to go deep into the tiger's den to directly behead the head of the sect, and achieved a miracle.
After that, he has been a magistrate for many years, and has served as a prefect, prefect, envoy, and political envoy, and can farm, spin, build roads, build bridges, pass ditches, and understand boats...... Many of the jobs that the people rely on for a living, even if he is not good at doing it, at least he knows a little bit about it, every time the Son of Heaven supports the plough and pro-farmer, as long as he is in Beijing, he is the one who accompanies him.
So, when he, in Zhang Shou's words, a particularly down-to-earth three-product master, walked into the compound of the weaving and dyeing workshop, entered the room where the new textile machines were located, and saw a few spinning workers who were busy doing things, he immediately widened his eyes, pointed to the textile machine and asked sharply: "What's going on with this textile machine?" Where did it come from? Whose idea was it? Who did it? ”
Zhu Ying landed on the ground and was the daughter of the princess, and she only knew that beautiful clothes were cut from various silk and satin, but it was the first time she visited a place like a weaving and dyeing workshop.
In fact, she had long felt that Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu must have bought the weaving and dyeing workshop must be Zhang Shou's idea, but her grandmother and mother did not allow her to come over to see the excitement, and her grandmother even warned him earnestly that men should have a little innocuous little secret, and women must not go to find out, so she could only restrain her urge to join in the fun.
However, after really entering the house at this time, Miss Zhu, who was curious about everything, felt that there was an indescribable smell in the air, and there seemed to be all kinds of dust floating in the air, and after sneezing a few times, she had to quickly retreat to the door. But even so, when she found that Wang Jie's tone was unexpectedly harsh, she immediately stepped forward to block the front.
"Wang Dayin, why are you so fierce? What happened to these spinning machines? There are many spinning machines in the world, aren't they all used for spinning? ”
Wang Jie glanced at Zhu Ying with a smile, but his tone immediately softened: "Miss Zhu saw the textile machine for the first time, right?" ”
"So what?" Zhu Ying was a little confused, but her tone was more fierce than Wang Jie just now, "Although it is the first time I have seen a textile machine, these spinning workers are all diligent and honest people at a glance, this weaving and dyeing workshop is so normal that it can't be normal anymore, what is there to make a fuss about." Zhang Wu, Zhang Lu, do you say? ”
As she spoke, she deliberately turned her head sideways to ask Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu, but found that the two of them had wandering eyes. At this moment, Miss Zhu, who has never been stupid, but was too lazy to use her brain, suddenly sighed in her heart, and then immediately became angry: "Hey, Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu, you didn't hide from Ah Shou to do something unseemly, right?" Could it be that you have been abducted and deceived by these spinners? ”
Although a large group of outsiders came, and the two noble proprietors were actually accompanying them, behind the spinning machine, several spinners were so busy that they didn't touch the ground and didn't have time to raise their heads. But Zhu Ying's roar was louder than Wang Jie's angry question just now, and one of the spinners was distracted and heard it, and his hands shook coldly, almost making a mistake.
He hurriedly stopped what he was doing and said loudly: "The two owners are good people, leaving us to work here, we are paid double the salary, we all stayed voluntarily, and we were not forced by others in the slightest!" We all feel blessed to be able to use such a fast and good spinning machine, and we can't wait to stay here forever! ”
As soon as he finished saying this, Wang Jie looked at Zhu Ying, who was slightly red, and said lightly: "When did I say that Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu and their brothers were traitors?" Miss Zhu, because you have never seen a textile machine, you have misunderstood my words. You must know that most of the spinning machines in circulation today are said to be the technology brought back from Hainan by Huang Daopo in the past, and most of them use three spindles. ”
"But count how many spindles are there on these spinning machines right now?"
If it were replaced by another arrogant daughter, she would definitely explode immediately when she heard Wang Jie's words, but Zhu Ying's personality is certainly arrogant and willful, but she has never been stubborn about things she doesn't understand, and when she asks Zhang Shou what a spindle is, she really counts it seriously.
When she finished counting, she would turn to look at Wang Jie and ask, "Eighteen spindles in total...... Could it be that the more spindles, the more yarn will be spun? ”
"It should be." Wang Jie nodded slightly, but then asked Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu, "The spinning machine with these eighteen spindles spins six times the yarn of the previous three spindle spinning machines?" ”
Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu were about to answer, when Zhang Shou's voice came from outside the door: "It can't be completely counted like this, there are so many spindles, and the spinning workers are not skilled enough at the beginning, so they can't reach six times as much." But practice makes perfect, and it may really be six times as big in the future. ”
Wang Jie, who turned around, saw Zhang Shou holding a box into the house, and then handed the box to Zhu Ying on the side, he couldn't help but stare at the other party with blazing eyes, and suddenly asked directly: "Dr. Zhang, is this textile machine your idea?" ”
"Sort of." Zhang Shou's answer was a little vague.
"Do you know that if such a new textile machine is promoted, it can be said to be beneficial to countless people? And you hide it so that only a small group of people can benefit, don't you think it's too narrow? ”
I knew that this Shuntianfu Yin, who was extremely strong, was a selfless person who hated egoism! That's why I think that it is really a loss to engage in invention and creation in this era when there is no patent right at all, let alone patent protection, because it is difficult to achieve a monopoly, and if you don't do it well, you can't even dig the first pot of gold.
Zhang Shou sighed in his heart, and when he saw that several spinning workers had also stopped their work, and looked at the dispute on their side with different faces, he said with a smile: "Then Wang Dayin thinks that this textile machine should be promoted to the world, so that all the textile workers in the world can experience the joy of this great increase in output and income?" ”
"Of course!" Wang Jie's answer was sonorous and powerful. Seeing Zhang Shou but smiling silently, his face suddenly sank, and he immediately said word by word, "Men and women weave, the major affairs of the country are no less than soldiers, and we can't forget the overall situation of benefiting the country and the people because of our own selfishness." I need to return to the emperor immediately. Dr. Zhang, farewell. ”
Seeing that Wang Jie turned around and left, Zhu Ying was staring at the person's back, her face was full of annoyance, and Zhang Shou pulled the person aside.
"Yingying, hurry, hurry up and chase after it. If Wang Dayin enters the palace, you will chase after him, no matter what method you use, just meet the emperor with him. When he saw what the emperor was talking about, you also said that he would do something for me. As long as you see the emperor, you don't care what he says, you don't have to argue with him, as long as you look at the loophole and hand over this box of mine to the emperor, it's done! ”
"Good! You can rest assured! Zhu Ying agreed categorically, then turned around and went out to chase after him.
Although she also thinks that this new textile machine is a very good thing, and it may make many textile workers more labor-saving and more profitable after promotion, but it is something made by Zhang Shou, why does Wang Jie take a few empty words and plan to take away the results!
It is said that rich and noble children like them are unreasonable, but she sees Wang Jie as even more unreasonable!
Seeing Wang Jie and Zhu Ying leaving one after the other, Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu looked at each other for a while, and then hurriedly instructed a few spinners to hurry up, and after following Zhang Shou out of the house, Zhang Lu wiped the sweat beads on his forehead with palpitations: "Fortunately, Mr. Xiao, you are decisive and let Lu Sanlang come forward first to make that vote, otherwise it will be miserable if you hit the hands of this iron-masked king Dayin." ”
Zhang Wu couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I really didn't expect Wang Dayin to be such a stubborn person." I thought that he had a good relationship with Mr. Xiao, even if he found that this new textile machine was indeed efficient, at most he would wake up to why the second prince wanted to spy on this weaving and dyeing workshop, and he would definitely not be sorry for himself. I didn't expect him to ask for this new textile machine to be made public to the world...... Why! ”
Zhang Shou suddenly smiled. Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu's ideas represent R&D and vested interests, while Wang Jie's ideas represent the general public. This conflict has not been resolved until later generations, most notably those patented drugs and high-end devices that are extremely expensive. And this conflict of interests, which could not be balanced in later generations, is even more insoluble today.
Therefore, for such a thing as a textile machine, he planned to dig only the first pot of gold, slaughter a big man and stop it.
"I shouldn't say these three words, and I shouldn't say them." Zhang Shou smiled at the indignant brothers and said meaningfully, "This should be said by the eldest prince." ”
Ahem –
At this moment, Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu both choked. Zhang Wu, who was more honest, coughed even more dimly, and after it was easy to stop, he saw that Zhang Lu was already smiling, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Mr. Xiao is right, even if Wang Dayin really stabbed this matter in front of the emperor, the most unlucky person is actually the eldest prince." "Deep sympathy for the Great Prince!
"However, thinking about it, it is still a little wronged, it is obviously an opportunity for Mr. Xiao to show his talents, but he can only stop there." After Zhang Lu gloated, he still felt pity. You know, his purpose is to hug the golden thigh next to him, Zhang Shou eats meat, they drink soup, the bigger and richer the piece of meat Zhang Shou gets, and the more delicious the soup they can drink.
This is completely different from the time when they were working as an attendant for Zhang Chen before, Zhang Chen was able to bring them shelter, but Zhang Shou brought a very good future to their brothers! And such a future, they have seen and experienced!
"What's the show...... This is just a small test. Zhang Shou shrugged his shoulders, and then said indifferently, "Besides, don't look at Wang Dayin now, he must be scolding us in his heart for abolishing the public for personal gain, narrow-mindedness, and discaring for orphans and poverty, but soon he will feel that we are doing things in a dignified and upright manner!" ”
When Zhang Shou said this, he naturally didn't know that Wang Jie at this moment was angry in his heart - because Zhu Ying actually rode his horse generously next to his carriage, and relied on his posture. When he entered the palace, Zhu Ying followed, and when he arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Ying was still following closely, and even when he asked to see the emperor, Miss Zhu still didn't leave!
Even Liu Feng, the steward of the Qianqing Palace, couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this scene. Especially when Wang Jie said that he had something important to ask to see the emperor, Zhu Ying actually blocked him with an arrow, he was secretly complaining, but he had to smile at the little aunt and grandmother: "Miss, Wang Dayin sees that the emperor is ...... serious."
"Am I joking when I see the emperor?" Zhu Ying snorted angrily, then glanced sideways at Wang Jie, and said provocatively, "Wang Dayin saw the emperor for something, and I saw the emperor for something!" Quick, report for me! ”
Seeing that Wang Jie's face was so angry that his face turned pale, Liu Feng couldn't help but feel deep sympathy for people. If it was someone else, of course he would ignore it, but in the face of Zhu Ying's strength, he had to go to the report with a bitter face and give the choice to the emperor. Entering the Dongnuan Pavilion, when he said the scene outside that was simply unheard of, the emperor muttered with great interest for a moment, and finally laughed.
"Yingying, this girl, is nonsense, but she is not a person who doesn't know the general situation. Since she must rely on meeting me with Wang Jie, she must have her purpose. Well, so be it, a piece of declaration. ”
Liu Feng was dumbfounded. Xuan summoned Shuntianfu Yin and Zhao Guogong's daughter to meet at the same time? Is this appropriate? However, in the face of the emperor's undoubted eyes, he did not dare to hesitate, and immediately agreed to go out quickly. Sure enough, when he arrived outside the hall and said this unbelievable oracle of the Son of Heaven, he saw that Wang Jie's face was about to turn into black charcoal.
"See the emperor."
"I've seen the emperor."
is also face-to-face, compared with Wang Jie's meticulousness, Zhu Ying seems casual and casual. In the face of this interesting scene, the emperor looked relaxed, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he did not feel any disharmony at all. He bowed his head slightly cordially, said to give him a seat, and then saw Wang Jie sitting upright, and Zhu Ying holding the box with one hand and holding his cheek with the other.
"What's the matter with Wang Qing?"
Not wanting the emperor to ask himself first, Wang Jie took a deep breath, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and told him everything he saw and heard when he went to Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu's weaving and dyeing workshop today.
Seeing that the emperor listened extremely seriously, he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, agriculture is the foundation of the country, and male farming and female weaving are the foundation handed down from ancient times. Now that there is such an efficient textile machine, how can it not be popularized, but let it be controlled by private people? ”
The emperor listened quietly, and suddenly looked at Zhu Ying, who was mocking: "Yingying, what about you, what about you?" ”
"I'll come to send him on behalf of Ah Shou!" Zhu Ying directly and generously stood up with the box, and said with a smile, "Ah Shou, he said that this box can go directly to the front of the emperor, but I was afraid that it would not be safe for others to send it, so I brought it myself!" ”
