It seems that the government presided over by Yang Chong is turning into a state of recuperation, Mozhuo Academy and Shannan Academy have moved to Chang'an, Shannan Academy is still in the original old place, and Mozhuo Academy is set in the original location of Procter & Gamble. After Procter & Gamble was dedicated to Li Yuan by Qi Hui, it became some of Li Tang's private industries, craftsmen and products were divided, and Procter & Gamble became Li Daoxuan's mansion, which was bought by Yang Chong as enemy property and presented to Mozhuo Academy.

Yu Wenkai, Xie Hong, Pang Huan and others took two hundred students from the academy and two hundred and seventy new students recruited from the Western Regions, Liangzhou, Longyou, and Hetao, and entered Chang'an City from Kaiyuan. The leaders are Lu Yan, Xie Nengyu, and Xifeng Bulai, recognized student leaders in Mozhuo Academy; Lu Yan turned out to be Zhang Guolao's boy who watched the mountain gate, Xie Nengyu was an orphan adopted by Yang Chong, and Xifeng Bulai was the nephew of Xifeng Changshan, the first Qiang person to study in Chang'an.

The guards at the gate were dumbfounded, because the students were not driving live cattle and horses, but mechanical cattle and horses carrying salutes and equipment, the heads of the bulls and horses resembled real animals, but the tall bodies were motionless, and one or two students pushed them behind each of them, and they ran like flies.

The Mozhuo Academy, the Jiuquan Research Institute, which developed various technologies, and the Daye Metal Workshop, which produced gold coins and printing equipment, were Yang Chong's three major cards, and he did not cooperate with anyone, and they were the secrets that countless enemies and friends wanted to know. I heard that the wooden oxen of Mozhuo Academy entered the city, and along the way from Yiningfang to Suzaku Street, tens of thousands of onlookers were soon crowded, and one after another horse-drawn carriages carrying people rushed to the side of the road to admire.

Teng King Yang Tong sat in the carriage, looking at the two hundred wooden oxen and horses, his eyes were motionless, and he muttered: "Since the death of Zhuge Wuhou, the wooden ox and the horse have been lost to this day, but I didn't expect the Mozhuo Academy to be created, what kind of mind is Yang Chong and Zhuge Quan, and they are all good at things, political affairs, and military achievements." ”

Shen Guang, who was guarding the carriage, said with deep sympathy: "It's incredible, at that time, I stole the powder of the heavenly thunder, and the Holy Son of Heaven invited all the masters to study it, but it was not configured; Li Tang and the Turks have spent a lot of money to steal samples from the Perak camp, and they have also not broken through until now. I heard Mai Mengcai say that the Hexi Army also has a kind of airboat that can fly in the sky, and the Battle of Wuguan made the Tang Army lose its soul; Most of the Li Tang soldiers surrendered because they subverted their understanding of life and their fighting spirit collapsed. ”

Shen Guang was still unwilling to die for Yang Chong, so Yang Chong arranged for Shen Guang to be the military commander of Yang Dong's palace and be responsible for Yang Dong's safety; Yang Tong sighed in a low voice and said, "General Shen, in order to shock people's hearts, Yang Chong won't just take out this kind of thing, right?" ”

Shen Guang stared at the team and said: "Of course it's not all, Lord Wang, please see, the candles held by a team of thirty people among them are not only thick and burn-resistant, but also do not need to cut the wick of the candle, if it is used in the palace or temple, I don't know how many manpower will be saved." ”

Yang Tong had already seen this group of students holding candles, and at first he thought that Mozhuo Academy was lighting candles in broad daylight to show off his wealth, but when he heard Shen Guang say this, he suddenly realized that this is definitely a kind of technological progress, and if it is an ordinary candle, it has long been necessary for someone to step forward to cut the wick of the candle. Yang Tong said with a look of shame: "This king is lonely and unheard. ”

Shen Guang said disappreciatively: "Lord Wang doesn't need to be careful, I just have a lot of free time now, and I often come into contact with this kind of thing." Look over there, the cotton box says Shangxian, it is the cotton cultivated by Mozhuo Academy in Shangxian. It is said that the imperial court was preparing to promote cotton and sugar beets on a large scale in Chang'an, and the Duke of Yue said at a meeting of the household department that three meals a day was the first step, and that making most of the people use sugar, cotton, soap, soy sauce, and paper was the next goal. ”

Yang Tong is already an adult, and he knows that the difficulty of Yang Chong's two-step goal is even above the struggle for hegemony, but it is a problem that every ruler and government must face, as long as Yang Chong can achieve these two goals in ten years, then in the minds of ordinary people, he is already on a par with a saint, and all opponents will be defeated without a fight. Yang Tong was silent for a moment and asked, "Do you believe Yang Chong's words?" ”

Shen Guang, a fearless hero, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "I personally feel that it may come true." In less than five years, the grain in all counties of Liangzhou has increased substantially, and the people of the Hexi Army and the four counties of Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang, and Wuwei have basically eaten three meals a day; There is also the celestial observatory I saw at Lord Duyan's house, it can be said that every one of them is a miracle, but Yue Guogong did it. ”

Yang Tong no longer squeaks, if you put aside power, Yang Chong is a rare talent no matter from which point of view; Shen Guang was not a scholar, so he didn't know that Yang Chong's greatest shock among the scholars was almost comparable to the appearance of Tianlei in printing. Not long ago, Yang Chong's printing workshop printed 50,000 books for Buddhism, the speed was so fast, the printing effect was exquisite and the price was low beyond imagination, so that the major temples in Guanzhong and Hexi flocked to it, and it is said that they paid a deposit of 300,000 Buddhist scriptures at once.

Some good people have calculated that if Yang Chong prints Confucian classics at this speed and price, then the price of the Four Books and Five Classics will fall to 20 wen per book in the market, which means that as long as a family has 200 texts, they can start accumulating books and train their children to become readers. If the primary school model promoted by Yang Chong in Hexi is popularized in all parts of the country, ten or twenty years later, it can be expected that the children of the poor family will be like new bamboo shoots after the rain, and they will be everywhere.

Li Tang's escape from Chang'an means that the family has lost to Yang Chong in the shopping mall and the regime, and controlling public opinion is the last line of defense of the family, but because of this, the family does not dare to act rashly, because once the public opinion position is lost, the family wants to duel with Yang Chong, and only the fish die and the net is broken.

New sprouts sprouted from the trees beside the road, and the tender green petals of the buds shone brightly, attracting butterflies to flutter in them; A radiant official slowly approached Yang Tong's carriage and laughed in a low voice: "Lord Wang is so Yaxing, if you are interested, why don't you discuss with Lord Yuwen Mountain and become a student in Mozhuo Academy." ”

The master of Yuwen Mountain is Yu Wenkai, the head of Mozhuo Academy, Yu Wenkai is Yang Chong's senior brother, the former secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and the central minister, who is definitely qualified to be Yang Dong's teacher; As long as he can hold Yu Wenkai, everything in Yang Tong may have a turnaround. Yang Tong's heart was shocked, and he thanked him in a deep voice: "Which adult comes, the king of this can not be far away." ”

The official was in his forties, with a strange face, elegant and dusty, and said with a smile: "Xiaguan Yuan Tiangang." ”
