Chapter 029: People's hearts are scattered
"Your Majesty really wants to let the Imperial students go to school in the Great Song Dynasty? Does this affect their thinking? Seeing that the last ship left the port, Wen Nan, who had been hiding behind and was reluctant to take Li Wenhao, came over, and he didn't quite understand Hong Tao's thoughts. What can students of the empire study in the Great Song Dynasty? Poetry and songs? You don't need these things in the empire, so what's the use of learning them?
"Lao Wen, you're not right, it turns out that you don't look down on these courses taught in the Imperial School the most, and now you have become an opponent of the courses in the Great Song Academy. Knowledge cannot be completely denied, but can only be said which is more useful and which can be temporarily not learned. I asked the students of the empire to go to school in the Great Song Dynasty, and not all of them had to go, they had a choice. Let them go to the Great Song Dynasty for a year or two to understand the cultural habits and thinking patterns of the Great Song Dynasty, which will be beneficial for them to serve in the empire in the future. The more we understand each other, the less likely we are to have contradictions. You also saw the battle plan drawn up by the Imperial officers a few days ago, right? If they had gone to school in the Great Song Dynasty, maybe they wouldn't have been so radical, you say? ”
Hong Tao's words were half-true, he didn't actually want to engage in any cultural exchanges, but to try to make up for his mistakes on the issue of education. Education in the empire was largely based on practical knowledge, and the people who were taught were pure technicians and engineers, who were too rational in their thinking and more mechanical in their thinking. If you can let them go to the Great Song Dynasty to learn about the classics and history, and learn about Chinese culture by the way, maybe they can make them a little softer, and don't think about how to invade and colonize others all day long.
Originally, Hong Tao planned to invite some literati from the Great Song Dynasty to teach in schools at all levels in the empire, but through this lecture, he found that it was too difficult to change the thinking of a group of people just by relying on one person's mouth. I am afraid that it will not be long before these teachers will be assimilated by the environment of the empire and will not have the desired effect. If you want the children of the empire to really know the Great Song Dynasty, you have to throw them to the Great Song Dynasty. Not only the children have to go, but also some young military officers, graduates, and government workers have to be sent there, even if it is a kind of temporary internship.
"Did he agree?" Wen Nan felt that what Hong Tao said was very reasonable, and he no longer bothered about studying abroad, but when he talked about Wen Hao, he still looked disdainful, and he didn't even want to call his name, so he only raised his chin and raised the boat that was going away.
"If he dares not to give me the face of the emperor, I will dare to toss him to the point of restlessness. This cousin of yours is a smart man who knows how to compromise and compromise very well. And this matter is not bad for him, and the main battle faction in the court may look at him differently. Hong Tao began to brag about himself again, as if he had calculated everything.
"Villain!" Wen Nan spat out two words from the corners of his mouth.
"Hey, you're scolding a bald man in front of a monk, and this bald man is still your emperor and teacher! Many of my practices are no different from Wen Hao, and I am also using others and calculating others, but I am making profits for everyone, and by the way, I am making some money for myself, and he has more elements to make profits for himself. The country needs this kind of person, if it is all a righteous man who is honest and honest, I am afraid that he will be deceived so that he can't even wear pants. Actually, it's not just me, but the Loving Brothers, Medini, and Compassion are almost the same kind of people, as long as they are put in the right place, they are still good people. You brothers don't have to be too close because of their work, but you don't have to be like enemies. Wen Hao is much more generous than you in this regard, and he wanted to talk to you several times, but you didn't care about others. Why bother, men, have a bigger heart. "Hong Tao doesn't want to worry about the problems between the two brothers of the Wen family, but he still has to persuade Wen Nan, and he won't listen to it.
For the emperor of his own country to give lessons to foreigners, the people of Jinhe country still like to see it, this is an honor, go out and meet anyone can brag: our emperor is amazing, isn't it? can give a lecture to the group of literati with eyes in the Great Song Dynasty!
Proud of their country, proud of their emperor, proud of their rich life, the people of Jinhe are very proud, they hold their heads up wherever they go, they like to hang their national flags on ships, printed on the packaging of goods, open their mouths and close their mouths is how our Jinhe country is. They feel that everything in Jinhe Country is the best, so they have no objection to Hong Tao sending his children to the Great Song Dynasty to communicate, especially the Han people in China, who can let their children go to their hometown to see, which can be regarded as a kind of glory to their ancestors.
The people were very satisfied, but Hong Tao was not happy, since the empire fully implemented private ownership, the original step-by-step and lively Jinhe City has disappeared. The people got busy, leaving the city in droves, flying like a swarm of flies in small boats to the ports controlled by the Royal Navy, looking for opportunities to make a fortune. There were even those who were more daring, and simply went to Japan, Goryeo, and the Great Song Dynasty, which were not under the control of the Royal Navy. There are more business opportunities there, and in the face of wealth, taking risks is a fart, and even the ports of Mongolia they dare to go.
"Alas, what about people? Where have all the people gone? What's the use of making so much money! "In this way, Jinhe City is half empty, except for a few large state-owned factories that are still operating normally, and there are only old people and women left in the city. Hong Tao doesn't like this state very much, don't look at everyone is happy now, but there are losses and gains, exploitation, and the gap between the rich and the poor. These problems will not be obvious in a short time, but they will become more and more serious, and sooner or later there will be people begging for food, laughing, and selling themselves in the city. But he knows what the result is, he can't stop it, this is the people's choice, and he has no right to stop them, unless he scraps this set of rules and starts over, but will it definitely work? Hong Tao himself was not sure.
"I see that it's good to do business, so you don't have to worry about it, whether you lose or make is all their own ability." Bo Zhu jumped out again and disagreed with her husband.
"Alas, the hair is long and the knowledge is short!" Hong Tao and Bo Zhu couldn't explain the horror of capital, nor could they understand the problem of the gap between the rich and the poor and the serious exploitation, so they simply stopped talking about it, got up and walked out.
"Why are you going? And go get those broken grass planted by the incense? Look at who is still farming at home now, how much money can be made, in vain! Bo Zhu didn't plan to let Hong Tao go, and was still nagging after him. Seeing that other people's families went out to make a fortune, she was a little hot-eyed, except for the emperor, she was a government official in her own family, and she couldn't do business. The rest of the people are either housewives or children, and they are not equipped to catch the sea.
"I'm going to go around the chemistry lab!" Hong Tao didn't tell Bo Zhu about tobacco, she knew, and the Bo family knew it all, with their manpower and financial resources, they would soon be able to plant tobacco all over Southeast Asia, and they would also sell it with their lives, which was not in line with their own ideas.
"Helping people invent things again? Didn't you say that you also give money for inventions, why don't you count it as your own, you have to ......give it to the country" As soon as he heard that Hong Tao was going to the laboratory, Bo Zhu was even more unhappy. Her husband invented countless things, but he didn't get a penny back. If it used to be evenly distributed, then now it is all private ownership, and the law also stipulates that individuals can own patents, and it is impossible to figure it out if it is so ****.
"If you talk about it again, I'll pull you up to the roof! You are the queen of the empire, don't open your mouth and shut up is money, it's your own family, others can, you can't! The empire is our home, and when it's good, neither we nor our children will go hungry! The stronger it is, the better off we are, let me tell you a few times for such a simple truth? Hong Tao stood up violently, and as soon as he turned around, he reached out and grabbed Bo Zhu's arm, grinning evilly.
"You, you...... You let go! Shameless, or the emperor, every day is not serious, shameless! Bo Zhu knew what her husband was going to do, and was sure that her husband could do it, so she desperately pulled out her arm, turned around and ran into the house, still scolding quietly as she ran.
"Hey, hey, hey...... I can't cure you yet! What are you two looking at? Don't be afraid of a needle's eye! Will you lead the horse? Looking at Bo Zhu's back, especially the bulging buttocks and slender waist, Hong Tao licked his lips and felt that it was not too late to chase in and hold hands before going to the laboratory. But when he turned around, he found that two guards were standing in the doorway and looking in, and it would definitely not be possible to go to prostitution in the daytime, so the two marines became his punching bag again.
Now the chemical laboratory in Jinhe City has officially become an independent unit under the chemical group, and a large number of new products and technologies such as Bordeaux liquid, tin amalgamation, sulfur purification, etc., have been invented from this small courtyard, and chemistry, which was not very important, has immediately become another baby bump of the empire. To get approval for research funds and equipment immediately, Li Yaofu, who was still a resident of the Great Song Dynasty, also became a technical immigrant of the Jinhe Empire, and is now the head of the laboratory under the Chemical Group, and he has taken apprentices.
Compared with Bush, Li Yaofu is not bad at all in his study drive, and his patience and perseverance are sufficient, and the only thing he lacks is the adventurous spirit, or courage, and he is not as crazy as Bush in exploring new things. This weakness does not prevent him from being a scientist, but it is difficult to be a great scientist. In fact, the most dangerous profession in the world is scientific research, and it is difficult to research anything new without the spirit of working and dying.
Hong Tao also does not expect everyone to have the same smart brain and an ignorant and fearless heart as Bush, any study needs a large number of ordinary people to lay the foundation, they will be obscure all their lives confined to a small corner, doing the same thing every day, as if there is no chance to shine. But without these people, everything is nothing, and any great invention is based on the work of these people. (To be continued.) )
