Gong Yijian is just a technical official and a government builder, and he has no idea about the current situation of the shipyard. Xiong Jing turned over the accounts as soon as he arrived at the shipyard from the school palace, and he was stunned at that time - the shipyard will not be able to pay wages next month and will go bankrupt soon.

Buy craftsmen, buy land (you don't need a few dollars for ownerless wasteland, you can pay a market rent in Shouying City, and the shipyard is regarded as a shop, but it is opened outside the city rather than inside the city), buy timber, buy mirage, buy raw materials...... There are more than 300 gold left in 1,000 catties of gold. What he didn't expect was that the wages of workers in this era were unusually expensive. Package food, ten dollars a day; Not including food, 14 dollars a day. The 2,000 workers who are working in the shipyard need a pound of gold a day just to eat, but fortunately, the workers recruited by my side in Yuling can work for free for a month, otherwise they will not be able to survive this month.

Of course, the keel waterwheel can be dedicated to the king of Chu, but how much can the king of Chu reward?

Xiong Jing thought about this question and smiled at Gong Yijian's proposal without answering. Ge looked at his little master, and still felt weird in his heart. Under the double-entry accounting method, the operation of the shipyard is clear at a glance, and he proposed that His Royal Highness ask Concubine Zhao, but Xiong Jing agreed.

"As seen by the doctor, the waterwheel is dedicated to the king, and what is the bounty?" Xiong Jing's question is dumbfounded, how can things that benefit the country and the people be measured by bounties.

"There are many fields in my Chu country, there are waterwheels to carry water to irrigate the fields, and countless fields can be turned into fields. This car is priceless. The public lost the truth, and finally said: "I would like to ask the king to reward a thousand gold." ”

As mentioned earlier, the waterwheel is priceless, but the reward is only a thousand gold. When Xiong Jing still wanted to speak, he interjected horizontally: "This car is not named, please lose the name of the doctor?" ”

After the "......" Gong lost Jian as Lu Ban, the purpose of inviting him to name it is self-evident. He was a little hesitant, but when he looked around and saw that everyone nodded, he said: "Out of the water into the dragon, the water is white, why don't you call it the white dragon waterwheel?" ”

"Good." The crown took the lead in praising the good, and the feudal monarchs such as Ji Lingjun also echoed loudly. "Please give this car to the king." Yu Guanzi took advantage of the situation and said, "Prince Jing does not ask for a reward of a thousand gold, five hundred gold is enough." ”

"Respectfully." The public loses the gift in return, and agrees to this.

"Teacher, the shipyard needs a lot of money, why only ask for five hundred gold?" The doctor went into the city with a few waterwheels, and as soon as he left, Xiong Jing asked the crown with dissatisfaction.

"Which is more important than the eldest son?" From the talk last month to the present, Xiong Jing has changed his mind and remembered the position of the crown prince, but he has no obsession with it. "Zi Jing Ning loses his eldest son, doesn't he lose his daughter?"

He saw that Xiong Jing wanted to speak again, and then said: "The king is in good health, and the government affairs are handled by Ling Yin." The waterwheel is dedicated to the king and is actually dedicated to Ling Yin, Huang Xie wants to defile the son but can't, Suojin fulfills his wish too much, and everyone can't help it? ”

"The waterwheel was made for me, and it was dedicated to the king to ask for gold, so why did Yin defile me?" Xiong Jing felt that he couldn't understand the world more and more, and this incomprehension was not because he didn't understand, but because he understood too much-where is this Chu State......

"The poem says: 'Under the Putian, it is not the king's land; On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister. The doctor is uneven, I am engaged in the sole sage', Zijing has never read the Book of Poetry? Hearing what Xiong Jing said, Yu Guanzi was not only surprised by his tone, but also his affection.

"Read." Xiong Jing nodded, the comprehension of adults, the memory of children, he learns anything very quickly, what is really difficult is the ancient Chinese characters, once the literal meaning is understood, then everything is unhindered.

"Once you've read it, why don't you understand what it means? Under the Putian, everything is owned by the king. If you give it, you will be happy, and you will be happy if you don't have it. Said the crown.

"But it was in the hands of Ling Yin Huangxie." Xiong Jing laughed back, "The king is just a nominal king. ”

Therefore, it is said that the Lord of men should follow the way of heaven, choose the wise, and set up officials and divide their duties, thinking that they are the best of the people. The king has ordered Yin for twenty-five years, and he has passed. He sighed, many times he felt that he could not teach this disciple, as if he had his own preconceived views on everything, some of which were subtle, and some of which were very rebellious and at odds with common sense.

"Set up officials and divide duties, thinking that they are the people's pole. As a result, the orders from above are not obeyed, and the orders are not expressed, which not only deceives the king, but also deceives the people. The whole country seems to be harmonious, but in fact it is in decay......"

After entering the school palace and worshipping the master, Xiong Jing learned more and more about the Chu State, and he hid many words in his heart, and rarely said it so directly. When he heard this, he got up and closed the door and sat upright. "Among the nations, Chu was the first to set up a county, and it has accumulated for hundreds of years, and the county Yin has become more and more powerful. At the beginning, the first king was crowned the king with the county Yin system, and the country was safe; Later, the first king was crowned as a monarch and the county was Yin, and the country was still solid. Moved eastward, Fengjun Jiu lost his land, and now the Fengjun doctor of the court is mostly adulterers, who feed on Yulu, and have no way to control the county Yin.

Fengjun County Yin Xiang system can not be completed, the governance of a country today, the first in the selection of materials, the vessel of Wang Xuan, Houde Longjun. There are five categories of people: self-serving, self-serving, self-serving, and vain. He who forges himself is a hundred times greater than he who is himself; Whoever gives to himself is ten times as much as he who is ...... himself."

As soon as he had the opportunity to expound his thoughts on governing the country, he was like the water of the Yangtze River, surging endlessly, and like the flooding of the Yellow River, it was out of control. At this time, Xiong Jing had to listen to it with peace of mind, but he was thinking about other things:

Although he is from Taoism, he also integrates Legalism and Confucianism, but there are differences between Taoism, Legalism and Confucianism. The law comes from the Tao. The original intention of Taoism is to imitate all things in heaven and earth, and then govern the country with these laws, so the Tao Te Ching will say, 'Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law of the Tao, and the Tao is the law of nature'. However, the law of heaven and earth is often difficult to understand, and sometimes it will even go against the will of the monarch, so the Legalist changed the reality of the law of heaven and earth, and used the power of heaven and earth to act on the law of man, so he became a Legalist.

The difference between Taoism and Confucianism lies in the way of heaven and humanity. 'Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs', which is Taoism, and 'Men and women eat and drink, and the righteousness of people exists', this is Confucianism. One is to take people as human beings, without mercy; One is to be a human being, respect and kiss, this is the difference between Taoism and Confucianism.

In addition to Taoism and Confucianism, there are also Mo and Yang families in today's countries. "If the world does not return to Mo, it will enter Yang", although Mencius has been dead for more than 50 years, Yang Mozhi said very much. It's just that the land of Chu is large, and other countries grant 100 acres of land, and the Chu country grants 200 acres of land. However, there are many people in Yang Xuelantai's palace, so Confucians often jump out to argue with him in his speeches.

'Yang is for me, and there is no king; Mo is both in love and is fatherless. There is no king and no father, and he is a beast. Mencius's words burst out from time to time from the mouths of several students of Xunzi, and every now and then, the Confucian disciples slammed their sleeves hard, and they had the intention of moving their mouths rather than their hands.

Xiong Jing in the shipyard felt more and more that his teacher was very much like the nagging and endless Tang Seng; In front of Shou Ying's Ling Yin Mansion, looking at the white splashes raised by the six waterwheels, Huang Xie became more and more suspicious that Prince Dejing was the Holy King.

Huang Xie was like this, and the officials of the Yin Mansion also opened their mouths, looking at the surging white water flowing out of the waterwheel and were speechless, the most exaggerated was Yin Yin, who was in charge of agriculture, and the old man was so happy that he took off his clothes, and the builder stepped forward to test the car shirtless.

Although there is nothing to measure the amount of water, the public transport insists on erecting an orange tree as a contrast. There are three types of waterwheels sent into the city, one is cow-pulled, the second is double-footed, and the third is single-handed. The cow-pulled waterwheel is like a waterfall, and the orange tree cannot be compared at all, and the smallest single waterwheel is more than ten times that of the orange tree. The six waterwheels came out of the water like a dragon, and soon there was a sea in front of Yin's mansion, and the skin of the people standing in the water was repeatedly wet, but they didn't realize it.

But this is not the most exaggerated, in the big city at the back of the palace, there are already good people rushing in and shouting: "Prince Jing subdued the six water dragons of Huaishui, and the six dragons are spraying water in front of Ling Yin's mansion, and Yingdu will be flooded in a while......"

The gods and ghosts said that the Chu people were convinced, and the inundation of Yingdu made people even more violent, and the market was suddenly in chaos, and some people didn't want to stall, so they abandoned everything and hurried out of the city; Some hurried to Ling Yin's mansion and begged Prince Jing to stop the six water dragons so that the water would not flood Yingdu.

The rumors were very harmful, but the honest doctor was unaware of it, and he truthfully reported to Ling Yin: "I said that this car will be rewarded with a thousand gold if it is dedicated to the king." The crown said that he did not ask for a reward of a thousand gold, but five hundred gold was enough. Please order Yin to reward 500 gold at the feet of Prince Jing. ”

"Is this really made by Prince Jing?" Huang Xie was still thinking about the establishment of the reserve, and his disciple Zhu Guan asked first.

"The car that carries water is not available in all countries, and its ingenuity is ingenious and the work of winning the sky. Who is the non-Jing prince? Gong Yi replied.

"What do you say under Prince Jing?" Zhu Guan asked again.

"Prince Jing asked this car to be dedicated to the king, what is the bounty?" The public loses the barge. "I say that this car is priceless, and it should be rewarded."

"Lord Monarch ......" Zhu Guan no longer asked, but looked at Chun Shenjun Huang Xie.

The crown prince has not yet been established, and anything related to the prince is a major event. The significance of the waterwheel is self-evident, less than two-tenths of the upper fields in the Chu State, and most of the rest are lower fields that cannot be irrigated. Unlike other countries, the state of Chu in the south is not short of water, and there are many times when there are floods. However, the south is not the Central Plains, there are many hilly areas, and many acres of fields are obviously close to the water flow, but they cannot be irrigated because of the large drop. There is a waterwheel is different, even if it is a single-person waterwheel, the height of the water lifting is also a zhang, and the higher field can dig the pond halfway to relay.

Before the advent of chemical fertilizers, irrigation was the factor that determined the amount of food produced. With the waterwheel, countless fields have been turned into fields, and under the praise of all the people, Prince Jing is one step closer to the position of the prince.

"My lord, the king is here." Huang Xie was still thinking about how to 'properly' handle this matter, and his subordinates said that the king of Chu was here.

The king of Chu did come, although it came a little quickly. As soon as the king of Chu came, when everyone saluted, they found that the water on the ground was deep. The sun had set, the summer shadow was extremely long, and the king of Chu saw at a glance that the six waterwheels were constantly spraying water, and he didn't care about the skin on his feet, and went straight forward and asked, "This is the white dragon waterwheel?" ”
