197 Talents of the People's Republic of China (1)
Shao Yong and Zhang Zai, two pioneers of science, two masters who are philosophically inclined to materialism, since they were sent to Li Buqi, Li Buqi must firmly grasp them as his basic plate.
Li Buqi's words and several experiments at the reception banquet completely attracted the two people, and in the next few days, Li Buqi continued to work hard, chatting with these two people every day, and took the opportunity to propose that he intended to build a university based on this library.
Li Buqi's idea of the university immediately moved these two people, and finally, Li Buqi fooled the two of them into accepting the position of library editor, preparing to study in Bianliang.
It is Li Buqi's dream to establish a university in the Great Song Dynasty, but things have to be done step by step, first of all, money is essential, but now that all the transactions of money are running normally, Li Buqi expects that the university should be able to be built in about ten years.
No, Zhou Qing sent a former rebel army back, saying that last time they taught the Jurchens who traded with them how to do business with other tribes, and they went to sea as soon as spring this time, and the three-month trip was quite smooth, not only purchased a large number of the same goods as last year and medicinal materials produced in Liaodong, but also collected a lot of tendon and horn feathers, cowhides, horsetails, etc., and filled two boats.
These things are necessary for the manufacture of bows, crossbows, arrows, weapons, and armor. Because the Great Song Dynasty lost its grazing land, the tendons and horns, cowhide and horsetail have always been out of stock. Arrows were always in great demand against cavalry, so there was never enough feathers to make them. This time, all the eagles, geese, and swan feathers purchased from Liaodong are high-end goods, and the price will naturally not be low.
There are also dozens of bear paws, and Li Bu gave up and put them for sale in his own pharmacy. Now Li Buqi is a health expert in the eyes of people, as long as he says to eat bear's paw nourishment, rich people will immediately rush to it and spend a lot of money. Li Buqi felt that he didn't recommend health products before he crossed over, which was a real loss.
Of course, Li Buqi had never eaten something as expensive as a bear's paw in his life, and he didn't know how to do it, so he stewed a few like pig's trotters and tasted them. Don't be afraid of spoiling the materials, throw them away if they don't taste good, who will let us have them.
Things are going well on Tamna Island, the newly reclaimed land is growing strongly, and it seems that there will be a good harvest this year, and Shifeng and his people are already able to fish offshore.
Now there is no need to secretly recruit people to go overseas, and many people among the people who think that they are still begging for a living are inquiring about it. Dengzhou and other places have just been hit by the disaster, and the local officials are completely coping with official business, many victims are displaced, and Zhou Qing is taking the opportunity to gather some people to prepare for transportation to Tamna.
The young man was indignant when he talked about the inaction of the magistrates after the disaster, but Li Bu could only smile bitterly in his heart. Last year, Qingzhou was hit by a disaster, and Fu Bi, who was in Qingzhou, did not reach out to the imperial court, but arranged the victims in an orderly manner, so that the victims could be grateful to him. This is a good thing in any dynasty, Fu Bi is definitely a capable minister. However, some people reported to the emperor that Fu Bi was buying people's hearts and intended to rebel.
If Li Buqi is the emperor, he will definitely put this person who makes a small report on fifty boards first. But Zhao Zhen really sent a royal history to investigate, and the conclusion that this imperial history came to was actually that Fu Bi was suspected of buying people's hearts. Zhao Zhen was really worried, and once considered whether to dismiss Fu Bi. Although several important ministers spoke for Fu Bi later, the emperor did not move Fu Bi, but Fu Bi was shocked a day, and this matter was also known to the whole dynasty.
With Fu Bi as an example, it is no wonder that the magistrate will go all out to relieve the disaster. Fu Bi's father-in-law is the former prime minister Yan Shu, and most local officials don't have such a hard backstage as Fu Bi. If there is a royal history to buy people's hearts, maybe the black yarn hat will be inexplicably gone, just ask you if you are afraid!
Therefore, the slackness of the magistrates in disaster relief may not be all due to them.
This incident made Li Buqi understand that in fact, the officials of the Great Song Dynasty were not only wary of military generals, but even civilian officials could not escape suspicion. Therefore, the officials in the Great Song Dynasty were drunk and dreamed of death, and there was a reason for it. Whoever has the ability is doubted! In this case, the Great Song Dynasty is indestructible! But it's not a bad thing for Li Buqi.
Only if the Great Song Dynasty is rotten and the people can't live a good life, the people will urgently look for a way out. At a time when rebellion could not become a climate, going overseas was a way out acceptable to the common people. Otherwise, as long as you can see hope in your hometown, who would want to cross the stormy sea to go overseas with an uncertain future? Therefore, Li Buqi can only express sympathy for the tragic experience of the people in Dengzhou and other places, but he will not do anything except sympathy.
After leaving Shao Yong and Zhang Zai behind, Li Buqi took Zhao Min to Chunze Prison for a few days - the recruited recruits had already arrived in Chunze Prison, and he had to go there anyway before starting training. In addition, after the third division takes office, he will definitely be busy for a while, and he will definitely not be able to take care of the affairs of Chunze Prison, and some things need to be arranged first.
On the afternoon of the day before departure, a family member sent several letters, one of which said that a Hangzhou merchant had brought it.
Li Buqi saw that he didn't know the person who wrote the letter, and when he opened the letter, he only read a few lines before slamming the table and laughing.
Zhao Min and Xing'er, Ying'er were packing up and were startled. Zhao Min hurriedly asked: "Official, what is the happy event?" ”
Li Buqi almost danced and said: "Bi Sheng, Bi Sheng, it's Bi Sheng, lady!" ”
"Who is Bi Sheng?"
Oh, by the way, Bi Sheng is still a nobody in this era. Li Buqi hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter who Bi Sheng is. The important thing is that he was working on printing with movable type. If this is done, there will be no need to engrave the book in the future, and the book will be cheaper. One day, everyone in the world will be able to afford to read. ”
"Ah, that's amazing?"
Zhao Min and Li Buqi read the letter from beginning to end. It turned out that a Hangzhou Xiucai who had received a book gift this time came home and heard that someone had invented a new kind of calligraphy and calligraphy, and knew that Li Buqi was curious about it, so he wrote a letter to tell Li Buqi about it. I didn't expect Li Buqi to find Bi Sheng so easily.
Li Buqi immediately asked people to tell Lu Feng to send someone to Hangzhou to hire Bi Sheng with a large amount of money, and he also wanted to express his gratitude to the Xiucai who wrote the letter.
People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and Li Buqi pondered that he must give Sister Zhao Min a few good shots at night. But after talking and laughing with Zhao Min for a while as usual at night, Zhao Min suddenly said: "Official, it's inconvenient for the slave family today." Let Apricot serve you at night, right? ”
Yes? Is there really such a benefit? No wonder the apricots have been squirming since noon. All of a sudden, Li Buqi fell in love with this feudal decadent and degenerate Great Song Dynasty.
Li Buqi couldn't help but look at Zhao Min and then at Xing'er. Xing'er's already red face suddenly turned red like a drop of blood.
Apricot is eighteen this year, and she is also a slightly plump little beauty who is upright and backward, and she is really like a ripe red apricot in the swaying red candlelight, and she must be juicy when she takes a bite. However, it has only been a few days since they got married, and it seems inappropriate to get another woman.
One is that the extremely orthodox education of his parents when he was a child before the crossing made him unable to pass his own level, and the other is that he is a very emotional person, and he decided to put this matter aside. Anyway, as long as he wants to, Xiao Xing'er will definitely not be able to escape his clutches, so for the sake of the harmony of husband and wife, why not pretend to be a force now.
He said quietly, "So? I'm also a little tired these days, so I'll rest early in the evening, so I don't need to serve with apricots. ”
Now Apricot's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Zhao Min hurriedly said: "Officials don't have to worry about slaves. Apricot is also a good woman."
Li Buqi waved his hand: "Lady, you don't need to say it, I don't know Xing'er very well." ”
The two women were immediately disorganized: Is there anything else to say? Doesn't it mean that men will be cold if they are not satisfied?
Zhao Min had to make up for it by himself: The official must have found such an excuse because he cared about me, and the slave family married a good man.
Xing'er is also making up in her brain: The official must care about the lady and won't touch me, the lady is married to the right Langjun.
Li Buqi was thinking: "It's okay, I haven't gotten up early for a long time, don't waste my kung fu." After drying the net for half a month, it's time to fish for a few days, in this dangerous world, martial arts can't be wasted. ”
