Chapter 146 Shinong Industry and Commerce
was patted by his father-in-law, Bai Fan didn't dare to talk back, so he could only speak honestly, "Regarding the problem of drilling wells, I still have some good things here, which need to be made by clever blacksmiths and carpenters, with this thing, it will not take half a month to dig a ten-meter-deep well, if it is smooth enough, I can even make two eyes a day!"
Of course, the depth of the water source varies in different regions, some places do not produce water at a depth of 10 meters, and some places do not produce water at a depth of less than 10 meters!
We need to ensure that the water is drilled out of the well, so we need professional people to observe in advance, in fact, there is no water, according to the local soil, topography, environmental conditions can be roughly calculated, there is an eighty percent chance of being able to calculate the depth of the water source, which can also greatly increase the efficiency of drilling wells for irrigation! ”
After hearing this, everyone applauded, and in a short time, this kid came out with two sharp weapons!
Li Er praised, "Boy, I thought you were good at poetry and books, but I didn't expect that your skills are so skillful, but your craftsman methods are even more clever!" ”
Bai Fan said, "What? Your Majesty doesn't look down on craftsmen? The world says that Shinong is a businessman, hum, is Your Majesty so short-sighted? ”
Li Er was asked by Bai Fan, slightly embarrassed, "This, the rules handed down by the ancestors, I can't be exempt from vulgarity!" ”
"It's really ridiculous, Shinong Industry and Commerce was originally said by Guan Zhong!
"Guanzi" said: The four people of Shinong, industry and commerce, and the stone people of the country.
It's just that it was taken out of context by later generations for no reason, and the pipe said these four together, is it to let everyone divide the ranks? The sages of the people are telling us that these four are the cornerstones of the country!
Later, I don't know which generation of corrupt Confucians deliberately misinterpreted it, so as to elevate the status of his scholars, which is really insulting to the face of the sages!
It is no exaggeration to say that any of these four types contain tremendous energy!
As we all know, a scholar's words are like 100,000 soldiers! Wen can be anbang, and Wu can set the country!
Mencius once said: Those who work hard govern people, and those who work hard govern people!
It's all about the importance of scholars, and traditionally, scholars represent the scholar class!
But has anyone ever thought that the word agriculture does not only represent farmers! Just imagine, what if Datang grain is a thousand catties per mu? Will there be famine? Are you still afraid of natural disasters? At that time, every household will have enough grain to eat for three years, and they are still afraid of a major drought? Flooding?
Don't think that this matter is a fantasy, every family produces thousands of catties per mu, this matter is true that someone has done it, where the soul has traveled outside the world, in the country outside that day has seen this, the yield per mu is 1,000 catties, two or three harvests a year! People are also ordinary people, not fairies and ghosts, they have done it!
Datang sits on fertile land for thousands of miles, and tens of millions of people, is it really inferior to people? ”
When everyone heard this, they were all short of breath, unbelievable, is there really such a world? I'd love to check it out!
Li Eryi's brain couldn't react for a while, and he stumbled and asked, "This, this is true?" Me, how can I do it? As long as you tell the conditions, you can see this item and be blinded by the efforts of your life! ”
Bai Fan explained, "This needs to select students who specialize in agriculture, with the existing conditions of the Tang Dynasty, where I dare not guarantee how long, but it can definitely be done within a hundred years, my academy will also teach, and early research can be achieved earlier, but now the foundation of the academy is too shallow, and there is a mountain of books but no one inherits it, and the Tao cannot be passed on lightly, and it needs to be carefully screened, so as not to fall into the hands of traitors and cause trouble to the country!" ”
Hearing this, Li Er waved his hand, "The issue of confidentiality and reliability of candidates, this is easy to do, I will order it later, all the trustworthy civil and military ministers, the children of the family must study in Zhongnan Academy in the future, they are all the children of meritorious heroes, they will definitely not defect to the enemy and treason, I will solve the problem of the source of students, but you have to promise one thing!"
I can't wait a hundred years, thirty years, I want to see! If you do this, I will ensure that your Bai family shares the fortunes of the Tang Dynasty! ”
Bai Fan saluted solemnly, "Whoever will bow down and die will do his best!" ”
Li Ji stroked his beard and said with a smile, "After talking about scholars and agriculture, the old man is very interested in hearing about business and commerce!" ”
"The word "I" is not as simple as we usually think of craftsmen, but it is called industry!
This is also a very deep knowledge!
Let's just say that this drought fight, where there are treasures that can divert water and drill wells, this is just the tip of the iceberg of industrial energy!
The real important weapon of the country, if it is used in terms of weapons, there is one thing that can completely destroy the entire Chang'an City within three breaths, and there is no way to avoid it, and there will be no grass in a hundred years! ”
"Shut up, boy!" Li Jing scolded, scared in his heart, what nonsense is this kid talking about? If such a dangerous thing really exists, who in the world can tolerate you?
It's not just Li Jing who is afraid, there is nothing around that is not afraid, is there such a terrifying weapon? Is that still there?
Li Er stopped Li Jing with a calm smile, "Don't be impatient, listen to this kid, this kid is notoriously benevolent, there must be something to do if you say this!" ”
I saw Bai Fan explain, "There are such things, and Fan has seen them, but outside the sky, with the ability of Datang, it may be able to be made in a thousand years!"
Anyone who doesn't know its true meaning, generally even if there is such a weapon, no one will use it, because human beings are fighting for territory and population, such a weapon exterminates human nature, only destruction, a past 100 miles and a hundred years can not survive, what is the point of using it?
Therefore, countries with such weapons are mostly used as a deterrent by force! ”
Everyone nodded, "Yes, that's true!" ”
Bai Fan continued to speak, "With weapons alone, everyone can see the energy of industry!"
And industry can not only be used in weapons, advanced industrial technology, 100 meters underground water is not needed for a day, 10,000 meters deep well is not a myth!
Moreover, it does not require manpower to draw water, and clever machinery can irrigate hundreds of acres of land a day! Is drought still a problem?
Industry is applied to life, such as the legendary clairvoyance, Qianli sound and so on! From Chang'an to Youzhou, it only takes three hours, who dares to believe it? ”
Everyone was dizzy to hear it, how could it be changed into a mythological story!
However, looking at Bai Fan's expression, everyone was a little skeptical, after all, they hadn't seen it!
"Ahem, boy, these are too far away from us, let's be realistic!" Li Jiancheng reminded.
Bai Fan was a little embarrassed, was he playing the piano to the cow?
"Finally, let's talk about business, the energy of business must not have been thought of, but the world still laughs at businessmen as the most lowly profession in the world!
Anyone who thinks otherwise, we and other officials bother to reconcile yin and yang and benefit the people, this is to contribute to the country, and the state will give Yulu to support the family!
Farmers work hard to harvest food to support their families!
Craftsmen rely on their craftsmanship to eat with the sweat of labor!
Why is it that when it comes to businessmen, everyone only sees other businessmen seeking profits, but not the hard work of businessmen?
What businessmen do is to buy and sell communication, sell goods from the north to the south, send goods from the south to the north, and businessmen also have to support their families, how to support their families without collecting a hard-earned money?
If all the businessmen in the world do business for free, it is estimated that our Datang will be paralyzed in three days, and no one buys and sells food and transportation items, how to solve everyone's food and clothing? If a merchant does business without compensation, he will not be able to afford to eat, and if he starves to death, what will we eat? Do you farm your own?
Not to mention, maybe at that time, it could really reach the state of a small country and a widow of the first saint Laozi, everyone only knows how to farm, and there is no quarrel with the world!
To say so much is to say that businessmen eat by their labor, and they are not inferior to others!
And the energy of the merchant, hehe! Haven't you ever thought that 'sheep eat people' is a way for businessmen to show their energy? ”
……
Everyone's hearts are in the dark! Isn't it?
"However, you said that agriculture and industry have an advantage in fighting disasters, and that commercial energy has an advantage in disaster resistance?" Fang Xuanling asked.
