Chapter 249 [Qu Yuan Plough] The two chapters are combined
The Bai family recently produced a new perfume, which is not only fragrant, but also cool, and Yingquliang applied some on both temples, feeling refreshed and dispelling the fatigue caused by last night's poor sleep.
Picked up the small red clay pot in front of him, 'squeaked' and drank a sip of tea, the aromatic tea liquid roared down, very comfortable, now he is more and more inseparable from this thing, and couldn't help but praise: "Good tea!" β
"It's Bai Dong's kid's private collection of pre-rain tea, the stock is running out, it was the old minister who asked him for it in the name of the king, if the king drinks it well, the old minister will go and ask for some more."
Fan Qiang smiled, it is a very comfortable thing to be generous to others, especially to be generous to that kid, and there will be no psychological burden.
"Well, give them a pot too. After arguing for so long, even the widows are dizzy when they hear it, so it's no wonder that they are not tired. Fan Bo, tell me, the doctor is also in his seventies, why is he still like a young man? This is also the widow here, if the widow is not there, he must not point to Wei Ying's nose and scold his mother? There is also a change in the fungus, and the widow sees that he is full of fire and energy, and he can lead the troops to kill the enemy again and fight a decisive battle thousands of miles away."
After being Qin Jun for a month, Yingquliang is now more and more accustomed to this position, and he can even feel that he is constantly growing. Now he no longer felt irritable when he watched his courtiers quarrel hotly, but regarded it as a pleasure; I still remember that when my father-in-law was leaving, he once retreated left and right, took his hand and said, 'If the courtiers do not fight, the king is in danger; If the courtiers quarrel big, the country will be in danger, and the courtiers will quarrel small. then Guotai Junan. Jun's Fun. It is the way of dividing and balancing the courtiers. Do not make them quarrel, much less let them not fight.'
I remember that I didn't understand it very well at that time, and I once asked my father-in-law, 'The minister should be sincere, and the country should be loyal, if the Manchu Dynasty is loyal and good, how can it fight?' The father-in-law smiled and replied, 'All the people are traitors, and the emperor is also faint; All the dynasties are loyal and good, and the foolish monarchs are also! My son should remember that if the power of the Manchu Dynasty belongs to one person, no matter whether this person is loyal or traitorous, he should be killed! β
The debate over the new law has been going on for three times. I was extremely angry at first, the monarch's sword was rewarded to Wei Ying, these old ministers are still entangled, picking bones in eggs one by one, where is this not giving Wei Ying face, it is clear that he does not give face to himself as an old Qin Xinjun! But as the debate became more and more intense, Wei Ying and the old ministers were clearly distinguished, but he felt that the courtiers were becoming more and more respectful, and whenever they reached a critical point, they would always sincerely come to ask for the king's ruling; In the past, it was respectful. But I can feel that it is mostly caused by my father-in-law Yu Wei, but I borrowed this new law debate. The regal is truly erected.
So on the second and third days, Yingquliang was no longer angry, but more and more calm, this was the first time he felt the happiness of being a kingβit turned out to be built on the pain of his courtiers
The city gate standing wood let Wei Ying pass the problem set by Gongsun Jia, and also let the old ministers bite the steel teeth, Wei Ying's name began to spread from Liyang to Yongdu, to Yidi, to the major counties, and now the Qin people say that Zuo Shuchang is a trustworthy person, and will not deceive us small people; At the same time, Lao Ganlong and Gongsun Jia lined up to eat and drink in Baijiazhuang, and took turns to launch retaliatory fatigue bombardment against Bai Dong.
Fortunately, the old ministers are still sensible, and they also understand that after all, it is the monarch who supports Wei Ying, and they know that Lao Qin urgently needs to change the law, and Wei Ying is indeed a suitable talent; However, some provisions in the new law must be opposed, such as the law of 'valuing agriculture and suppressing business', which is cutting off people's financial means and is like killing parents! It is said that when Gan Sheng heard the news, he hid in the kitchen and sharpened his knife until dawn, and then stabbed his own piglet.
In this stormy debate over the new law, the two sides of the debate are like young couples who are ready to start a new life, from fierce quarrels to mutual concessions, and have gone through a necessary run-in process. It's just that it's still far from being able to reach a consensus, but fortunately, the most worrying method of sitting together has been improved to a certain extent under Bai Dong's efforts.
Bai Dong has never been as strict as he is today, and while affirming that the law should be changed with heavy punishment, he also put forward the view that 'all the first and the first can be punished, and only those who sit are innocent'; that is, he supported the use of heavy laws to punish criminals, and in the early stage of the law reform, in order to seek a deterrent effect, he could even punish all the criminals without distinguishing between the first and the second, but he severely criticized the decree of 'even the law becomes a guarantee, one person commits a crime, and ten families sit together for the same crime'!
To put it bluntly, it is a way to mobilize the power of the people to deal with criminals, but the joint sitting method set by Wei Ying is that there is no reward for those who report, and those who do not report are guilty, and they are guilty of the same crime as the offender! This is quite unreasonable. Bai Dong even suspected that Meng's mother's three moves were not entirely about her son's growth, most likely because her country also had a legislator similar to Wei Ying, so she was afraid of being implicated by her neighbors?
This evil method has been abolished or improved in many countries, but Wei Ying insists on serving it 'original', which cannot blame Bai Dong for being a picky eater. If the chief of the left wants to implement this law, then he should lead by example, Ben Zuo is more willing to privately pay for the construction of a few houses near your chief of the mansion, and then invite some beautiful servants, and then go to Yongdu to buy some slaves who have committed crimes, I will also pay for them to get out of slavery, and then let them live in these houses, how about being a neighbor with the chief Zuo?
By the way, the money of this Zuo Geng is not blown by the wind, and after these people live, the daily expenses of the future will depend on themselves to earn, so the chief of Zuo must be cautious, and must keep an eye on these guys, otherwise if they kill people and oversell goods, you have to sit together with the guilty party Zuo Chang said that 'the son should also be guilty of the same crime as the common people', said well, well.
Wei Ying is stupid, my dear Bai Zuogen, let's not bring such a trick, right? Seeing that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty applauded, and the old Ganlong, who was in his seventies, jumped to his feet and agreed, he didn't know what to say. Or Yingquliang played a round field, what Bai Zuo said is not unreasonable, the practice should be restricted, but you can't sit too much, so it's better to ask Bai Zuo to put forward the opinion of improving this 'sitting method'?
Bai Dong proposed that the crime of sitting in a row be reduced by three degrees, or corporal punishment, or fines, such as the offender should be chopped. Then the neighbor in the 'sitting sh) shall be reduced to thirty lashes. If these neighbors have money. Fines may also be used to offset sentences; In addition, if the neighbor takes the initiative to expose the crime and finds out the evidence, the government should come forward to reward him.
In fact, he wanted to put forward the defense system and the concept of 'presumption of innocence' in modern criminal law, but fortunately, he was quite sensible, and understood that proposing such a jumpy modern legal concept in this era would frighten people, and he might be regarded as a freak, so he had to take his time.
After all, Wei Ying is a famous Legalist. After being 'played' by Bai Dong, he was the fastest to accept Bai Dong's new ideas, believing that this move could not only play a role in curbing crime, but also have the wonderful effect of increasing the treasury. If there is money to be made, it will not be said that he will only waste the national strength, after all, in the early stage of the reform, the Zuo Shu Governor's Mansion spent far more money than he earned.
Now the focus of controversy is on the 'emphasis on agriculture and suppressing business', although Yingquliang also loves money, but what he hopes more is to establish martial arts; it is his greatest pursuit to collect the whole land of Hexi and send troops to Hangu to dominate the world. Money is good, but it can really start a war. Or can a person with food in his hand not panic in his heart, can Lao Qin?
The number jΓΉ that Wei Yang came up with is also very convincing. There are 1.5 million households in the old Qin, and the people are only more than 4 million, excluding the nobles, scholars, and merchants, there are only 3 million people, and after removing the old and weak women and children, there are only more than 1 million people who can be farmers and soldiers. In the early years of dedication, there were still millions of farmers who gave up their agriculture to trade, and there were people who abandoned agriculture for business; Merchants also need more labor, and a large number of returnees will go to work for the merchants, which will further reduce the number of farmers.
For example, the Baijia workshop, printing workshop, and paper mill that have been repeatedly expanded, at first only worked by hundreds of people, but now the number of 'craftsmen' absorbed is gradually approaching 1,000 people. Now the old Qin merchants are looking at Bai Zuogen, if every family comes to learn from him to build a workshop to produce products, won't it cause more and more people to return to farmland? At that time, no one will go to farm and produce grain, can my old Qin army learn from the divine beast to hum and eat Jinlatie!
"The Chinese people say that Bai Zuo's establishment of the "Invention Patent Law" and the "Trademark Law" has greatly promoted commercial development and increased the taxes of Lao Qin, but they don't know that it is the existence of these two laws that has allowed those profit-seeking businesses to gradually evolve in scale and expand their influence, so they are even more harmful! Martingale is recommended by Bai Zuo, and he feels it deeply, and because of this, he must point out the mistakes of Bai Zuo more! Nowadays, 'suppressing business and valuing agriculture' is precisely to restrict the major trading companies led by the Bai family trading company, Lao Qin wants to be rich and strong, and he is not a businessman after all, but a farmer who sweats and drops of grass! They are Lao Qin's most valuable wealth! In the past, it was not allowed to be extended, that is, Wei Ying had never entered Qin, and now Martingale is the minister of the old Qin Reform Law, and he should be a farmer! β
What a lot of impassioned words, and it is impossible to refute, even Gan Long, Du Zhi and others, who oppose Wei Ying the most, have to admit that he has a certain point; The commercial prosperity of Shandong countries is because of the large enough population, for example, the number of households in Wei is more than 3 million, and the number of people in China is 10 million, so there are 500,000 people! The number of households in Qi is 2.5 million, which is a big country in the east, and even the weaker Zhao Han is a country with more than 2 million households, but Lao Qin only has 1.5 million households.
After reading the number presented by Wei Ying, now even Yingquliang began to suspect that Bai Dong was really wrong, and how much money he made was useful? When it comes to wartime, will the countries of Shandong still sell grain to us? No matter how good Chudi gold is, it can't fill your stomach.
Bai Dong smiled, smiled and walked past Wei Ying, who was full of righteous indignation, gently patted him on the shoulder, and walked to Yingquliang and bowed deeply: "Your Majesty, please give your subordinates three days." Three days later, please come to the Bai family field with the ministers."
***
Gong Yiqing has always been smirking like a child recently, causing the children in the family to think that the head of the family was stimulated by something.
The "Secret Book of Public Loss", which had been looking for a long time, had been returned by Bai Dong, and the public loser had also received a letter of apology from Yue Numen; These are not the most important things, the important thing is that Gong Yiqing can finally prove to the elders of the clan how correct he was in choosing the Bai family in the first place.
Printing, papermaking, pulleys, and levers If it weren't for the commemorative significance, Gong Yi Qing had long since not put the secret books passed down from generation to generation in his eyes, he felt that Bai Dong was a real secret book, and those whimsical ideas even far surpassed the ancestors and Mo Zhai, who was known as the world's first craftsman, and the public loser wanted to prosper. When in the body of this amazing young man.
The Bai family needs skilled craftsmen. What the loser needs is ingenuity. The more I came into contact with Bai Dong. He has begun to pursue greater goals, so what is it to let the public loser be included in the court and cover the Mo family? Changing the world is the only way for the losers!
Tightly tying the fate of the public loser to Baijiazhuang is the most correct decision made by the public loser in this life. During this time, he would often secretly visit some of Liyang's famous Xi Pozi, and would also run to play Professor Bai Dong's 'health boxing' with his mother-in-law and aunts in Baijiazhuang early in the morning; His mind is on those school-age boys and women in Baijiazhuang, and there are actually many young men and big girls in the public losers, and kissing is always the best means of alliance
Bai Dong's cousin's daughter is actually not a beauty, she has been living a good life recently, and she is even a little obese, but not long ago, she tied the knot with a child of a public loser, and she was still upside down; It is said that this was decided by the public loser, the reason is that the girl of the Bai family loves the family, and the children and nephews of the public loser also take a fancy to the 'welfare' of the Bai family village, and think that living in the village is more conducive to 'work and study'.
It is naturally a good thing that people are thriving. And Bai Dong also saw the sincerity of the public loser; This is a family that is extremely crazy about science and technology, for science. They can even ignore the ridicule of the world.
This is really good, he is the first ingenious person in the world, but when it comes to hands-on ability, the public loser can throw him eight streets if he pulls out any one, so the combination of the Bai family and the public loser is simply a match made in heaven. There is no need to worry about betrayal by the public loser, because he has enough chips to keep the public loser in a beautiful vision for the future at all times; You don't need a carrot to attract a bunch of scientific maniacs, and just give them one or two inventions and create a zΓ o to make them crazy, it's simply a business without a foundation.
For example, the idea of a stroller and a cork bottle opened the eyes of the public losers; The sample was sent by Gong Yi Qing himself, pushing the stroller, the patriarch who was not confused was smirking again, he thought that in the near future, there would be a stroller made by the public loser in the noble homes of the world, such a wonderful thing, did you Mo family do it?
And the one called 'Baby Bottle', which is really a whimsy. Can you use cork to imitate a woman's private parts? Pour human milk or goat's milk into this thing, and eat it when you want to be hot, and you don't have to worry about wasting too much milk or not enough milk as a mother; Rich people can save money on hiring nurses if they have this thing, and if they don't have enough milk, they can reluctantly buy some goat milk and dog milk to feed their children.
'A milk bottle, healthy the whole Daqin', this advertising slogan was thought up by Bai Dong, and it feels too appropriate and awesome~ forceful
Bai Dong stared at Gong Yiqing for a long time, and finally decided that this person was crazy. Things are not in size, but in ingenuity, if he smelts modern steel now, cast a sword of the world, Gong Yi Qing may be excited and admired, but it will not be so crazy, the key is that the materials used in this stroller and bottle are very simple, but the design ideas have broken the bottleneck of the imagination of the pre-Qin people, which is the fundamental reason for Gong Yi Qing's madness.
"Baizi, these two items seem to have the possibility of improvement, if the male loser can successfully improve, can it be called the male lost baby car and the male milk bottle?"
"Male bottles?"
Bai Dong just took a sip of tea, and almost choked to death when he heard this, so he nodded helplessly and said: "I still have one thing here, which will be completed in three days, this is the pattern." β
"Oh?"
After taking the pattern, Gong Chengqing only glanced at it, then immediately forgot about the stroller and the bottle, and looked at Bai Dong fixedly: "This is a plow?" β
"I call it the Qu Yuan Plow."
"Quyuan pear? Judging from the pattern, this thing is far more delicate than Wei Li, and the pear plate in front of it seems to be able to rotate freely? Wonderful, wonderful! With such ingenuity, I really don't know how Baizi came up with it! β
"Hehe, I also got inspiration occasionally, but I can think about it, I really want to make it out, and the non-public loser can't do it, this thing is related to the people's livelihood in the world, and it is the use of a country, so I am not ready to apply for a patent to make money, although I am the inventor, if the public loser is interested, it can be named 'the public loss plow', I don't know what the public loser will do?"
"Bai Zi's words are true!" Gong Yi Qing couldn't put it down, and the more he looked at it, the straighter his eyes became, and suddenly when he heard Bai Dong say this, his whole body trembled with excitement.
"You don't have to react like that, do you?"
Bai Dong shook his head secretly and said with a smile: "When did I coax my brother to lose?" β
"Good, good! Thank you for your kindness, I'll do it! This plough cannot be faked by others, it must be done by me! β
The curved plough is a good thing, it was originally only appeared in the Tang Dynasty, compared with the long plough used in the Qin and Han dynasties of the Warring States period, the long wheel was changed to the curved wheel and the short wheel, and the plow disc that can rotate freely was installed at the head of the wheel, so that not only the plow frame became smaller and lighter, but also more convenient to turn around and turn, the operation was flexible, and it was very saving manpower and animal power.
Li Kui of Wei once put forward the policy of "teaching the best of the land", which was actually to use reasonable fertilizer and intensive cultivation, and Wei Li has also been greatly developed. However, the best Wei Li in the world is from the hands of the Mo family, for which the public loser has been indignant for many years, and now he has seen the new product of Quyuan pear, which is 'across the era', how can he not be excited? And Bai Dong is so generous, he actually agreed to let the public loser be named!
Gong Qing took the drawings into his arms, turned his head and ran, as if he was afraid that Bai Dong would regret it, and he couldn't even care about his bottle and stroller
