Chapter 6: Obstruction of the Government and the Opposition

And what makes Mink Bo embarrassed is that he is also an old nobleman, and he is the one who wants to change the law, he...

"Your Majesty, changing the law is not a day's work, and I hope that the king... Take back your fate. Diao Bo bowed deeply to Tian Jian, and his tone was sincere.

Tian Jian glanced at Mink Bo and said with a smile: "Taifu, what the widow said about changing the law is just an idea, don't be nervous." ”

"O king!" Mink Bo shook his head and sighed heavily.

The biggest obstacle to Qin's change was Meng Xibai and Taishi Ganlong, represented by the old Shi clan, whose political foundation and political ideas were significantly different from the formation of the entire Shi clan.

Gan Long once presided over the implementation of the new policy during the Qin Xiangong period and led the country for a long time, with a meritorious foundation, and was a meritorious hero of the Qin State, so he had a clear understanding of the poverty and weakness of the Qin State. The Shizu Group, on the other hand, is based on inheriting the ancestral shade and maintaining the ancestral tradition, and has a substantial sense of alienation from the poverty and weakness of the Qin State. This fundamental difference has formed a major difference between Ganlong and the Shizu group in terms of political propositions and political strategies.

Ganlong advocated limited reform in the early stage, and advocated a degree of restoration in the later period. Specifically, Ganlong's political propositions are divided into three levels: the first level is the basis of understanding, which recognizes the cruel reality that the Qin State will go to extinction if it does not implement the new policy and become strong; The second level is the idea of governing the country, with the goal of restoring the hegemony of Mu Gong, which is the same as the initial goal of Qin Xiaogong's order to seek merit, rather than overturning and reinventing the law; At the third level, the bottom line of supporting the reform of the law is not to touch the Mu Gongzu system.

And the Mu Gongzu system is the one that governs the country by Baili Xi, which is fundamentally different from the Legalist thought based on cultivation and warfare of Shang Ying.

The current mink is just like Gan Long back then, looking forward to the strength of Qi and the change, but it is not a change! In other words, he hoped that there would be another person like Zou Ji in Qi State, instead of people like Shang Ying and Shen Buxiao.

And the goals are also strikingly similar, Mink Bo and Baiguan hope to restore the strong Qi of King Qi Wei and King Qi Xuan back then.

"Taifu!" Tian Jian snorted coldly, "The so-called law change, the widow doesn't know it, the law change needs to be able to be a minister, does the widow have it?" Now it's just a matter of amending the law. ”

After seeing the power of Li Slang's reform of Wei, the countries also unveiled a wave of change, the most distinctive of which was Wu Qi's change, Wu Qi wanted to copy Li Slang's set in Wei, but was forced to death by the nobles of Chu. Han Aihou also begged Shen Bu to do harm, so he began to change the law.

Mink Bo felt a little relieved, and said to Tian Jianyi: "King Shengming, the so-called change of law is nothing more than reversing the mediocre and the sage, but how can the mediocre be in politics, and the sage is easy to live among the people. ”

This is an era of princes and generals, all the famous ministers and generals have a prominent family background, even if they are poor, they are also a class of scholars, and they have more status than the people of the countryside.

Just imagine, books and knowledge are controlled by the upper aristocracy, how can ordinary people learn, 99% are illiterate!

And what is the Shang Martingale Change?

It is a ploughing war with the military lord as the core, and his change does not involve the category of ministers, but only in the army!

"Yes!" Tian Jian nodded, he is now the biggest nobleman, and the matter of subverting the rule must not appear on him, today's preliminary temptation has come out, and Mink Bo, including all the courtiers, refuses to change the law in their hearts.

When he can't find a capable minister of law change, Tian Jian will not easily mention law change again.

"Taifu doesn't need to say much, come and see this cart, which can facilitate irrigation where the water source remains the same." Tian Jian pointed to the cart in the creek.

The earliest cylinder cars appeared as early as the Spring and Autumn Period. Zhuang Zhou's "Nanhua Sutra" recorded in the Han Yin hugging the old man's shameful orange tree, that is, the water lifting equipment erected on the side of the well. With the development of society, more and more attention has been paid to the use of water lifting tools, and there have been buckets, buckets, keel cars (also known as overturners) and barrel cars.

The bucket is tied to the two sides of a barrel or fence with thick ropes, and two people hold a rope in opposition to each other to draw water from the river into the field. The drum is made of thick bamboo poles that open up the bamboo joints, which are connected to each other, and with the terrain is high, with wood and stone supports, across the valley, and lead water into the field.

The keel car is loaded into the water tank with a series of knotted wooden planks, supplemented by a horizontal axis to rotate by human power or oxen power, and the water of the ditch stream river is introduced into the field with the board. The cylinder car uses the principle of hydraulic operation, so that the bamboo tube takes water, and the flowing water is automatically irrigated into the field without manpower. The use of cylinder cars in Ankang began in the Southern Song Dynasty when Guo Hao was camping. Hengkou Qiangongyan Longkou lower cylinder car river is the place where Guo Hao Yingtian made cylinder car to lead water into the canal, so the place left the name of "cylinder car river".

The high-drum car developed later, the high-drum car depicted in Wang Zhen's "Book of Agriculture", belongs to the water-lifting machinery. Powered by manpower or animal power, the shape is like a keel car, and its water-carrying parts are like a well car, and there are wooden frames on and below it, each equipped with a wooden wheel, and the wheel diameter is about four feet (one foot in the Ming Dynasty is about 0.32 meters) The rim is high next to it and low in the middle, and the groove is made in the middle, which is more uneven and uneven, so as to increase the friction between the wheel rim and the bamboo tube.

The lower wheel is semi-immersed in water, and the two wheels are connected with bamboo cables, the bamboo ropes are about one foot long, and the distance between the bamboo tubes is about five inches. High drum cars also use human or animal power to turn the upper wheels. The bamboo cable tied to the bamboo tube is a transmission member, when the upper wheel rotates, the bamboo cable and the lower wheel are rotated, and the bamboo tube also goes up and down with the bamboo cable.

When the bamboo tube descends into the water, it is filled with water, and then follows the bamboo rope upward, and when it reaches the height of the upper wheel, the bamboo tube infiltrates the water into the water tank, and so on. Drive a string of small bamboo tubes to hold water, and go up the trough to draw water from low water sources on the high bank.

Since the Southern Song Dynasty, the cylinder car has been continuously improved in the process of use, and gradually popularized. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, cylinder cars can be seen in all counties of Ankang. There are many records in local chronicles. For example, the place names such as the Pingliba River, the Ziyang County's Canal, and the Wenshui River of Ningshan County can be traced back to the traces of the year. On the bank of the Huangyang River in Yingfeng Township, Hanbin District, you can still see the style of the cylinder car.

Looking at the bamboo tube after the bamboo tube, the water was slowly drawn out from there, and the ministers all called it a miracle!

"When will Zheng Guo be abducted?" Tian Jian thought secretly, anyway, Han Wangran was not interested in Zheng Guo, and when the time came, he would send a minister to fool Zheng Guo and build the water conservancy of Qi State.

"O king, who created these things, it is simply superb." Wei Qing, the commander of the guards, opened his mouth and praised.

"This?" Tian Jian was dumbfounded for a while, "This is what the ancient book says, and the widow entrusted the craftsman to continue to try, and finally restored the things of the ancients." ”

Anyway, it is now one or two thousand years away from the Yanhuang Era, and the history of Chinese civilization has long existed, is it okay to pretend to be the things of the ancestors?

Shangshu records that the two emperors of Yu Shun traveled all over the world and drove the four yi, and the territory was larger than that of the Shang Dynasty.
