Chapter 234: Cutting (2)
Zheng Lang glanced at Third Uncle Lu, and Third Uncle Lu understood, and brought a stack of drawings from the study in front of him.
Without opening them, Zheng Lang said again: "What I said today is very important, if any of you think that you can't keep what I said secret, please avoid it for the time being, otherwise it will ruin my big thing, then I will ignore the gentleman's style, exhaust my wisdom in the future, and take revenge on him." ”
As he spoke, he stared at the big wave girl with his eyes.
Other people are not afraid, they are afraid of this big wave girl.
"Champion, the concubine won't say it," Wei Shi Niang stood up**, making Zheng Lang speechless, why does such a small man grow so many large "fat meat".
didn't say it again, she said it carefully, with her sister present, she would definitely be restrained in the future.
In fact, it doesn't matter, as long as a month later, the truth is revealed, whether it is the matter of Wei or the matter of Linjiang Temple, there is no problem.
To keep it a secret, that is, this month.
Zheng Lang opened the drawing, pointed to the first sketch and said: "Shi Sanlang, after you arrive in Wuhu, you and Wang Zhi and Yang Jiujin will also be optimistic about the craftsmen, and they will be blocked to death, only one month, and the other projects are not in a hurry, but it must be built." ”
These sketches are all sketches of charcoal paintings, not Chinese paintings.
In order to strive for realism, each artifact is divided into four paintings, front, two sides, and reverse. But Wei Shi Niang shouted: "How come? ”
"Ten sisters, don't be unreasonable."
"It doesn't matter, just use an analogy and you'll understand."
Before leaving, Zheng Lang also wanted Shi Congguang to clarify the principle, so as to save some unnecessary misunderstandings after making it. He said: "Little lady Wei, have you ever seen the small grasshopper plate in the countryside." ”
"Yes."
It is a very small fishing boat, willow leaf shaped, about one meter long, carrying three people at most, some places call it rowing, some places call it grasshopper plate, and not called boat. Too small.
The advantage is that the cost is low, a few thin wooden boards can be inlaid together, followed by very light, the big one is 20 kilograms, the small one weighs only a dozen kilograms, and the half-sized child with great strength will take it away. And it is very flexible, which is conducive to driving in some narrow, shallow, and reedy places, so in later generations, this kind of exquisite ship will continue to exist.
There are also bad places, small and narrow, very tricky, difficult to control, first-time boarders, no matter how good the water surname is, at least ninety-nine people out of a hundred people will capsize and fall into the water.
Because it is cheap and convenient, many families in Jiangnan now have this kind of boat.
Wei Shi Niang had seen it many times, but she was very puzzled, and asked again: "What does it have to do with the Golden Wheel?" ”
"To let the grasshopper drive normally, one is the penny support, the reaction force, through the wrist to push the boat forward. One is to use a scorn paddling to paddle the water backwards, and the thrust of the water pushes the basin forward. Right? ”
Wei Siniang was dazed.
Regarding the principle of physical mechanics, for the people of the Song Dynasty, even the simple principle of mechanics is unfathomable.
Zheng Lang didn't want to say more, so he said about it, and said: "After I came to Jiangnan, I saw that some fishermen rose up, without scorning paddles or pennies, standing in front of the basin with only two feet and stirring, and the basin was flying fast. Why is that? ”
I saw it, but I couldn't tell the principle, Wei Siniang shook her head.
"The principle is also very simple, the front foot is pressed, the basin sinks forward, the back foot is pressed, the basin sinks back slightly, the two produce a spatial contrast, and the water must be divided to the edge. People are standing in front of the basin, the front end of the basin is tilted, and the water flow is squeezed to the back, which is also equivalent to paddling the water with a bamboo paddle. Or to put it more clearly, hit the wall with your fist, why does the fist hurt? Give a force, and there will be a counterattack back. ”
"The golden mean," Yan Rong said.
Zheng Lang smiled bitterly, this can't be explained by the mean.
There is no right or wrong, and he said: "When a person walks, he also uses force, then there will inevitably be a reaction force, and since the earth is a whole, this meager force cannot shake it at all." ”
"I understand, no wonder when the golden wheel was turned that day, there were great monks who were beating and reciting Buddhist scriptures."
"Not only that, since I was a child, in order to meditate and study, I like to sit and meditate, just for learning, nothing else, and a few women believe in Buddhism, so people rumor that I also believe in Buddhism. This statement is wrong, I believe in Confucius and Mencius, Confucianism, and I do not reject the teachings of Buddhism, Taoism, agriculture, medicine, miscellaneous soldiers, yin and yang, vertical and horizontal, etc., but I absolutely do not believe it. That's why I didn't kneel that day. But in the face of me, a person who has no pious heart, the golden wheel actually turns. Where is its spirit? ”
Wei Siniang giggled.
Zheng Lang turned to Shi Congguang and said that it was fake to Wei Shi Niang, there were too many beautiful girls in the family, only his own, there were four, and he didn't want to cause bad things again, this was said to Shi Congguang, looked at Shi Congguang and asked: "Is it okay to concentrate the financial resources of a state in one person?" ”
"No," Shi Congguang said, the Shi family's family background can also be followed, following Zheng Lang, not only the physical environment, but also the future is the most important thing. Whether it is Lu Yijian or Li Di, or other prime ministers, they have all made up for their important doormen. Some people do too much, some people don't do too much, and that's the difference.
Even if they are wealthy, they also know how harmful it is to amass wealth to one person or a very small number of people regardless of the lives of the people.
Zheng Lang was a little repulsed by this, but he could ask himself, the Song Dynasty did a good job. If you want to be egalitarian, you can't even think of implementing it for 10,000 years, and no matter how average the system is, there is still a huge gap between the privileges of a few and the common people.
The ideal system is to adopt some mild policies that are easy for everyone to accept, adjust each other, reduce the serious disparity between the rich and the poor, and alleviate social contradictions.
The Song Dynasty was also doing it, the trilogy disappeared, the gate valve disappeared, the tenant farmers had a certain degree of personal freedom and rights, and even the scientific expedition deliberately gave the poor children a chance, and even deliberately suppressed the children of the powerful to prevent them from being the champion, and even his own son of a small landlord was almost suppressed. Or encourage the people to cultivate, and the land will be yours after reclamation, which is also an opportunity for the poor people to own land. Sometimes they take the initiative to give some money to help the poor and widows, and even encourage officials to "help the poor". Recruit the homeless people as an army, so that their families have a way to live, and so on.
But no matter what you do, this is the feudal era, and annexation can't be stopped.
The main crisis of the Song Dynasty is not this, there is a shortage of food, there is little land, and the population is too much, and it will soon break 100 million. It won't have a big effect, but it will play a little. The second is wealth, I talked to Yan Rong in the morning to make cakes, the cakes of the Song Dynasty are very delicious, but they can be done a little better like the Southern Song Dynasty, such as trade with the Khitans, the Song Dynasty sometimes deliberately issued edicts to prevent the common people from selling goods to the Khitan, and maritime trade has been prohibited. As a result, the money circulated to the Khitan side instead. The same is true for other countries, which are not exporters, but importers. As a result, the copper coins of the Song Dynasty became the treasure of the Nanyang countries and stabilized the national economy. As for the Song Dynasty itself, the money has never been enough.
The result left him dumbfounded.
Why bother?
In fact, if you do it smartly, you can give the Khitan people one million yuan a year, and you can earn this money back exponentially. A large amount of gold and silver poured into the Song Dynasty, why should gold and silver become more and more expensive? There is a currency in circulation again.
It can't be said that the Song people are stupid, the ancient people have the limited surnames of the ancient people, and since ancient times, they have been light on business and suppressed business, and it is not easy to put it to this point.
But it could not have been made bigger, including silk.
It's not the main thing, even if you have a way to make the Song Dynasty earn 200 million yuan a year, if you don't solve the three redundancies, it will still be insufficient. If the three redundancies are solved and nothing is done, the current taxes of the Song Dynasty will be enough to make everyone lie on the mountains of gold and silver.
Didn't say. It is not in line with his purpose of life, he can see a little farther, and he must take one step at a time when he walks, and said: "I said something similar a few days ago. Buddhism is about emptiness, yes, or doing good deeds and benefiting sentient beings. How do some Buddhism do it? Let's just say Linjiang Temple, before you came, Wang Tongju had already supported three or four officials, all of whom were invited from Jiangning, and secretly investigated for me. In addition to the mountains, there are only about 30 monks in the temple, among which there are more than a dozen small novices who are pure coolies, and there are less than 20 monks who are really in charge, and they have nearly 4,000 acres of fertile land. A Taiping Prefecture includes barren sloping fields, mountain fields, and cultivated land, which is less than 7,000 hectares, and excluding the population of the three county towns and the non-agricultural population of some bazaars, each peasant household has barely 30 acres of land. ”
"It was donated voluntarily by pilgrims." Wei Shi Niang said.
"Buddhists talk about doing good deeds, they are monks, what do they want so much wealth for? Dressing, raising children, providing for wives and concubines, buying a manor? Why can't it be given to the poor? ”
One sentence sealed Wei Shi Niang to death.
Being a monk can also be remembered, that is, the abbot of Shaolin Temple is not the same as Qiangji, but is that a real monk?
"Besides, the incense of Linjiang Temple itself is said to be in Doujin, Wei Xiaoniang, your fifth sister stayed in the Guanyin Courtyard of Qiuzi, how much incense did you donate?"
"Fifty taels of gold ingots, three hundred horses of silk, and other miscellaneous items."
"It's so rich, the official rewarded three moral families, but it's only three hundred taels of money and three hundred pieces of silk!" Zheng Lang sneered.
Aunt Wei suddenly came to her senses, bowed down, and said, "Thank you Zheng Zhizhou for rescuing." ”
"You get up, don't thank you, before the truth of the matter is over, there will be any conclusion, I still said just now. I don't know if there is a Buddha, maybe there is, maybe there is not, if there is a Buddha, what should he think when he sees this group of disciples under his banner drinking the blood of the country, skinning the skin, squeezing the fat of the people, and pressing the ointment of the people? Is this what is called Purdue Sentient Beings? If the Buddha thinks that this behavior is right, then this Buddha is also an evil Buddha, a demon ancestor! ”
What's the difference with those bullies and gentry?
"I see, these guys!" Wei Shi Niang jumped up.
"Don't move!" Zheng Lang snorted and said: "I have some arrangements in the future, and I need the people of the whole state to work together to do several major things, and the people must be stable and united." If this matter is my guess, the women and their children who have lived in that small courtyard for more than ten years will be uncontrollable, and even countless lives will be caused. Also, several poor brothers in Jiangning checked and found that Zhishan was also afraid of leaks, so he stored a large amount of money in many containers in Jiangning and Yangzhou, and secretly bought a lot of land in Hebei. If you notice that something is wrong, talk nonsense, and run away, the consequences will be even more unimaginable. So even the craftsmen, I asked Wang Tongju to help and invited them from Jiangning, without using a single person from Taipingzhou. ”
"It's so complicated......"
"Ten sisters, few words! How many people in Taiping Prefecture don't believe in Linjiang Temple, and how many people don't worship Zhishan? Mrs. Wei reprimanded.
Let them know the important surname of the matter, and let Uncle Lu take them away.
Zheng Lang rented a few houses on the edge of the wharf, and prepared some supplies inside. But before the truth is revealed, they don't know the role of these materials. Let the craftsmen on the ship carry the materials onto the ship, and then leave Dangtu County without making any stops.
As soon as they left, Si'er and Huan'er came back with the other little maids.
If you want to make lunch, you can boil some tea by the way, it's too hot.
If the sea is better, the water surface is wider, but the depth is enough, the heat of the sun cannot penetrate the bottom of the sea, but allows the sea surface to absorb some of the temperature, or the mountains and plateaus, so these places are the resorts of refuge. The most afraid is that now in the south of the Yangtze River, there are many lakes, most of them are Ze, a very shallow layer, the sun is hot to the bottom, so the water vapor is steamed, and the whole earth seems to be a big steamer.
When the little maids returned home, their clothes soaked through sweat.
Zheng Lang walked to the room inside with concern, and heard Huan'er and Si'er laughing, so he pushed the door and went in, asking about the situation of the shed. It's all women, there are old women, there are big girls, there are middle girls, or little girls, and even little girls who are not married, in their forties and fifties, you can go over as an elder to take a look, I am only seventeen years old, although I am a Zhizhou, I must always avoid it. Besides, the summer clothes are thin, and it is not good to walk in.
Then his eyes widened.
Huan'er and Si'er were standing in the house, but when they were changing clothes, they just took off all the wet clothes on their bodies, and when they saw Zheng Lang pushing the door in, they were stunned together, and at the same time screamed, and hurriedly covered their chests with their hands. But I covered my chest, what should I do below, and I have to cover my bottom again.
Zheng Lang made them scream a little dizzy, and said in a low voice: "What are you called, you are not my concubine?" ”
Grandma's, I see that you are officials, and you can do anything.
"Da Lang," Si'er reacted, put his hands down, walked over shyly, and said, "Do you want to see it?" ”
Huan'er is also stupid, yes, isn't it just a look, what's wrong? I don't know whether to cover it or not.
Zheng Lang said sadly: "Let you scream, the whole room will hear it, what else can I see!" ”
With his hands behind his back, he walked back to the study, and sure enough, when he arrived, the four students bowed their heads and laughed together.
"Not what you think."
"It's okay, but doctor, it's daytime, it's not very good," Sima Guang shook his head.
"You don't study well, what do you think!"
Si'er and Huan'er changed their clothes and walked out, very embarrassed, blushing, carrying a bucket to fetch water from the well, ready to boil the water. There are many women who come, and there are those who have relatives in the county town who have defected to their relatives, and those who have no relatives but have money live in inns, and there are very few such women, who either come in boats or live in boats. Most of the three meals a day are dry food, and there are too many people to provide relief. There are also many women who have inconvenient access to water, and boiling tea to save their urgency. Not only is the Zheng family burning, but also the families of several officials, and it doesn't cost much money, so it is a good deed.
Zheng Lang walked out again and said to Si'er: "Put a handful of salt in a pot of water." ”
"Put salt?" Si'er asked in surprise.
"Are you sweating a lot?"
"yes."
"You touch your skin to see if there are any grains of salt?"
"There is ......"
"You have to put salt, otherwise the more you drink water, the worse it will be, and you can't put too much salt, otherwise you will be more thirsty, listen to me." I can't explain it deeply, and no one can understand it.
"Is this the golden mean?"
“…… No, it's a personality. ”
"Da Lang, the slave was not good just now."
"It's not good, if you see it, the whole family will laugh at us, and you will not be allowed to warm your bed this winter."
"A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase."
"Hehe, it's okay to be shy, it's okay to call it no."
"Yes, then ...... this winter"
"Let me think about it." After saying that, he happily returned to the study. In fact, being a Zhizhou is not as difficult as imagined, there are not many affairs in a state, as long as you set a good example, use good people, and make decisions fairly, so Wang Anshi has nothing to do in history, and went to Baochan Mountain, Su Dongpo to visit Zhongshan, and Ouyang Xiu to Langya Mountain.
A few little maids continued to cook, and Si'er, Huan'er, Zhu'er, and Li'er carried two buckets of water out.
It is gradually noon.
Cui Xian and Jiang Xing'er came back panting, exhausted.
Zheng Lang looked at them and said, "Either take a break in the afternoon." ”
"Well, we can't do it, including a few weaver girls, I'm afraid we won't be able to support it, and the locals will be fine." Cui Xian looked at the big sun with a sad face.
"Zheng Lang, the slave saw many people cutting rice in the field, and I don't know how to eat it?" Jiang Xing'er asked.
"Poor, used to the weather." Adapting to this weather is partly the reason, mainly because they are poor, and then adapting, how hard it is to work in this weather.
"The concubine made a mistake."
"You did a good job, why do you say you made a mistake?"
"At the beginning, I should have brought more weaver girls over, but there were too many people who came, and the teaching effect was poor. The vicinity of Taipingzhou City is better, some women come from Wuhu and Fanchang, and it is inconvenient to eat, drink and live. Next year, how about letting more weaver girls come over to the house and teach them in three places? ”
"Not next year, this winter, the Zhangjiazhuang workshop will be returned to the imperial court, there are not many weaver girls in Zhengjiazhuang, and there are not many people." After speaking, Zheng Lang lost his mind slightly, and at this time, the Yellow River in the north was about to burst its embankment.
It is not known how many people drowned.
The main reason for this is the ugliness of the Junzi Party, several large embankments, the scale can be squeezed into the top ten in the history of the Yellow River embankment, and it is a disaster that can not be bigger in that dynasty, but the Junzi Party does not care about the life and death of the people, staring at Zhao Zhen's trivial things and grinding their teeth, and even this embankment burst is also the first real major embankment burst of the Yellow River in history, and the Yellow River has been pulled to the south of Tianjin into the sea, but the so-called Junzi Party has not seen a decent book.
So when he was writing the history books, he covered up the ugliness of the gentleman's party, and only mentioned one sentence.
It's a big joke.
When Sima Guang was cultivating the general knowledge of capital governance, hundreds of people often died in disasters, and he had to write a few books.
If it weren't for the fact that some other documents were left one after another, future generations would not know the truth. For example, the embankment burst affected more than a dozen state capitals and more than 30 counties, and it was the most densely populated state and county in the Song Dynasty.
In a word.
just forced Zhao Zhen hard.
Cui Xian didn't know what he was thinking, thinking that Zheng Lang was considering the ministers of the court, there were many ways to make a fortune, and it was not good to send the Weaver Girl wealth from the inner palace, so she didn't object, and said, "Come here." ”
Brought Zheng Lang into the room and asked, "You saw Huan'er's body just now...... Body. ”
"Isn't that right?" Zheng Lang asked nervously, making her cautious eyes a little scared.
"Official, you misunderstood what the concubine meant, it was Huan'er who said it to the concubine, she screamed shyly, afraid that the official would be angry, so let the concubine ask you for forgiveness."
"Forgiven."
"The concubine is also reasonable, and she won't learn from Fang's."
"That's right, that's it, kiss it." If you are not careful, Zheng Lang still likes this little daughter-in-law very much, especially at this time, for his own political achievements, he is tired and sweating, and his whole body seems to be fished out of the water, and in Zheng Lang's eyes, he is the most beautiful Cui Xian.
"No, you've sued too much."
"That's okay," Zheng Lang's eyes rolled, didn't he want to be "the first time", the first time. Suddenly, she lifted her dirty clothes, took the little cherry in her mouth, and said, "It's done, kiss the baby." ”
Cui Xian let his sudden attack soften his body all of a sudden, and he fell on the bed, Ren Zhenglang lifted the corset, and a pair of plump breasts snowflakes were exposed to the air.
Looking at the jade like [***], because of nervousness and shyness, I can clearly see that the cyan blood tendons are beating with the heart, and the delicate panting exudes a virgin fragrance. The beauty is seductive, Zheng Lang is not a saint, and he can't help but feel like a horse, with a big hand, the ribbon of the obscene pants is loosened.
When Zheng Lang's hand slid down, Cui Xian stopped him with his hand and said, "No, official, the concubine's filial piety period has not yet expired." ”
It's all like this, what kind of filial piety do you keep.
