Chapter Ninety-One: Kaiconash
'October '9! Qi Wang Yuanji announced to the world, in November, gather all the people in the world in Taiping, open a Nashi, the selected people, many do not know the text, few people enter, awarded the academician of the Academy of Sciences, from the nine grades, the scholars are ashamed, do not fight with it! ’
Looking at the grand occasion of Taipingfang, the historian who came later wrote that although King Qi's incident made the people of the world laugh and even be ashamed, but if he could attract all the people to gather in Taipingfang, he still had to record this scene in the annals of history.
And the historian has an advantage in this era, as long as you show your identity, no one will stop you from letting you in, after all, this is an opportunity to leave a name in history, how can ordinary people have this opportunity?
The construction site was stopped, the sergeants were maintaining order on the streets, strictly preventing people from making trouble, dozens of tables were placed at the door of the Taiping Fang, and everyone who entered the Taiping Fang must register here in advance, in fact, it is a preliminary statistics, and the talents in each different area are divided together separately in order to unify the assessment.
The registration work has been carried out for three days, but the number of people who have signed up is not large, only a few hundred, and most of them are still onlookers.
In the main hall of the new palace, Li Yuanji sat on the main seat, and Wei Chi Jingde sat under the stage, looking left and right with curiosity, still interested in this new thing.
The historian sat opposite Wei Chi Jingde, his head constantly swaying, and sometimes recording something on the bamboo slips on the desk.
interviewed more than ten people who successfully entered the interview process, but the final result was very disappointing to Li Yuanji, lost among ordinary people, although they have certain merits, but they are still far from their own requirements, or rather, the point they want to see the most, so far has not been found.
Wei Chi Jingde was a little bored, the procedures and results that were constantly repeated, and the people who couldn't even speak completely, in his opinion, it was better to go outside to maintain order and be more comfortable, if it weren't for the heating in the house.
"The grass people and the Korean side see the prince!" A man dressed in an extremely ordinary way, but clean and tidy, about thirty years old, walked into the main hall, and his face did not have the nervous expression of other people, as if he was accustomed to it.
"What's your specialty?" Li Yuanji nodded and asked programmatically.
"The grass farmer family has been cultivating the land for a living for generations, and there is a craft that can make the field yield 10% more than other fields." Han Fang said confidently.
Li Yuanji couldn't help but glance at Han Fang more, but then shook his head, this person is too confident, in other words, he thinks he is quite fake, not a person who is willing to be down-to-earth, anyone in the Academy can want, but he can't want this kind of frivolous person.
"How many generations have you been doing this craft?" In order not to miss any talent, despite the fact that he had already denied the Korean side, Lee Won-gil still asked.
"I can't remember exactly how many generations, but I have had this craft since the generation of the great-grandfather of the grass people." Han Fang raised his chin slightly and smiled lightly.
Li Yuanji shook his head certainly, Han Fang was not the person he wanted to choose: "You don't meet the selection requirements of this king, but you do have something in your hands that this king is interested in, if you want, this king is willing to pay fifty times to buy the technology in your hand, you can also rest assured, this king buys your technology only for technical reserves, and will not promote it." ”
Han Fang was slightly stunned, what do you mean? Lao Tzu has such a good technology, you can't even look down on it? Can't see that you still buy Lao Tzu's technology?
A little annoyed and angry, but sitting opposite is the King of Qi, although it is rumored that His Majesty hates King Qi to the core, but now that King Qi can sit here and open Conas, it also proves from the side that King Qi will not be fine in the short term, so he can't afford to provoke him.
However, although fifty runs is a lot, I haven't really paid attention to it.
"The grass people are only willing to exchange this technology for an official position, so as to comfort the ancestors of the Han family." Fifty guan is a lot of money, but from the next year of Jiupin, there will be one or twenty yuan, but it is only two or three years of Yulu, and there is also an official body, that is a matter of glory and ancestry, which is more important? Although the Korean side is illiterate, it can distinguish clearly.
"In that case, forget it over there, next!" Li Yuanji didn't say much and directly rejected the South Korean side's request.
"This ......" Han Fang was stunned, and was taken away from the main hall with a slightly flustered expression.
Wei Chi Jingde's face was full of confusion, the previous ones can be said to be vain, but this Korean side has real technology, even if such a talent does not accept it, at least he should find a way to buy the technology in his hand, if he can't do it, he will have a hundred yuan, for Datang, with such technology, how much money is acceptable, even if it is to invite the emperor and give him a medal.
"Your Highness, do you know what this output means for the entire Tang Dynasty?" Wei Chi Jingde looked at Li Yuanji and asked.
The historian was also at a loss, wanting to get this answer.
"The principle of the Academy of Sciences is to be refined rather than more, and to buy off the technology of Korean medicine is actually for real talents to learn and reference, so that they can find the rules from these existing technologies, so as to improve them and introduce more advanced technologies. He has inherent technology, but he lives in the shadow of his ancestors, and he can be used to keep it, but it is far from enough to be used for development, what this king wants is a talent who can make the Tang Dynasty never starve, not this kind of little technology, then be proud and complacent, and rest on his laurels. Li Yuanji calmly told them the answer.
The selection method of the Academy of Sciences seems to be sloppy, but this is also a helpless thing, in this era of heavy scholars, all walks of life are almost called cheap, although the farmers are industrial and commercial, but in fact, the status of farmers is not high, literate, no one will join these lowly industries.
It is precisely because of this outdated ideological imprisonment that it has led to the decline of Chinese civilization, scholars can govern the country well, but scholars can only keep it, but can not open up, without the assistance of other industries, scholars can only live in their own weaving dreams.
Yu Chi Jingde was silent, he was thinking about whether to secretly go to the Han side and find a way to get the technology in his hands.
The historian buried himself in writing and recorded Li Yuanji's words intact, although he didn't believe it.
continued to interview more than ten talents, and occasionally had outstanding performances, but still failed to achieve Li Yuanji's satisfaction.
However, what is puzzling is that Li Yuanji rejected nearly 30 people one after another, but he became interested in the carpentry that had no obvious bright spots, and ordered someone to take it to a house, prepare all the tools, and let him make a wheel.
"Xiaomin Yuan Rang, a native of Suzhou, came to Beijing to visit friends, and I happened to hear that His Royal Highness opened a Konas, and I happened to have an idea in my heart, so I came to sign up for a try." The polite Yuan Rang spoke very decently, and just a brief self-introduction made people feel the literary atmosphere on him.
Yuan Rang is the first 'literati' to appear today, and compared with the previous soil buns, Yuan Rang is indeed a literati.
"Tell me about it?" After an entire afternoon of interviews, facing a bunch of interviewers who did not meet expectations, Li Yuanji's mood was also a little lost, and his attitude was not as good as before.
"There are two ideas, when Xiaomin was in Suzhou, he saw that the people were working hard, and the pear they used was extremely difficult to use, and it often took two cows to barely pull, so he wanted to change it, but Xiaomin did not have the materials and financial resources, and it happened that a friend was on duty as a supervisor, so he came to the capital and wanted to ask for help to make a pair of iron pear knives, but Xiaomin's friend did not agree, which is one of them.
Suzhou has a lot of water, waterwheels are common by the river, but most of them are left in the early days, Xiaomin observed several times, and also felt that there was room for improvement, and replaced its support part with smooth wear-resistant parts, which should greatly save manpower, but it was also difficult to achieve without money and materials. ”
Two ideas, Li Yuanji's eyes suddenly lit up, although these two ideas are very conservative, and the gap with his own ideas is also too big, but at least this guy is the first to propose this kind of setting, and everything always has a development process, every improvement, you have to put forward this idea first, if you don't even have an idea, how to improve?
And when several ideas, ten ideas come together, the object in front of you at that time will be an epoch-making work.
"Materials, people and property are all provided by this king, if you can take out these two items within a month, this king will accept you as an academician of the Tang Academy of Sciences from the ninth grade."
