Chapter Seventy-Three: The South (Part II)

Song Jiu said again: "Your Majesty, you are the emperor, the king of a country, and the parents of a country, a family, parents take the lead in setting an example, the family will be diligent, and the family can become better." A country can only be better if the monarch sets a good example. If you want to be a good emperor, you must take the lead. ”

This group of second ancestors will play if they play, one more is not more, one less is not less, if a big country can still lack talents? If the emperor takes the lead in playing, the country will be in chaos. In fact, there is no need for Song Jiu to explain, and Zhao Kuangyin also knows the way. He said, "Song Jiu, come here." ”

Song Jiu walked over.

Zhao Kuangyin touched his head and said, "You know better than your father." ”

"Father?"

"Your father is even more muddy than you." Zhao Kuangyin laughed, if this old boy is alive, will he dare to compete with himself?

Minister Wan'er, now I know that Song Jiu's father was Chai Rong's personal guard back then, and Gao Ping was very fierce in the first battle, killing many Northern Han soldiers. But there are not many people who know Song De, only a few people, it turns out that there is a father and a son. Song Jiu forcibly refused Zhao Kuangyin's balloon, which made many ministers agree, this kid likes Hu Lai, and he can still grasp the general direction, just like last time he refused to offer fruit to the emperor to eat.

But Song Jiu didn't know what to do, it was his insistence that Zhao Kuangyin made up his mind in his heart and let Song Jiu go south.

When the balloon fell, the Zhao Pu brothers did not forbid their children to board the balloon, and a group of Yanai were even more bold and continued to fight for it. Zhao Kuangyin looked very carefully, whether it was gunpowder or this kind of balloon, he felt that the effect should be greater, looking at it, he was thinking about one thing, if there were thousands of balloons carrying people, and the third watch rose in the middle of the night, with the help of the upper hand, and floated into the enemy city, what would happen? However, then vetoed, it is not cowhide, if the power of the country, tens of thousands of cowhides can still be done, and it really can't be replaced by sheepskin. The main thing is that the target is too big, floating in the air with the wind, people can't be autonomous, and the speed becomes very slow when approaching the ground, Song Jiu talked a lot about slowing down, Zhao Kuangyin forgot in the blink of an eye, this is not his strength, his strength is military, basically as soon as the general goes out, he draws a map at home, how do you do it, how does he do it, as long as you follow his instructions, everything is OK. Therefore, the most he thinks about is military, people are not autonomous, and when they are close to the ground, the speed is extremely slow, and the target is big, what does that mean, arrow target! A live target for a bow and arrow.

He was at a loss, whether it was the power of gunpowder or the height of the balloon, it was a good thing, for what could not be used in military affairs. looked at Song Jiu again, this kid has too many shortcomings, otherwise he would be tempted and want to reuse it, this is also a strange science. However, it didn't work, and he felt depressed. Thinking of this, he said to Song Jiu: "Can you make that Mozi's thing?" ”

Song Jiu was stunned, he still thought that Han Feizi was talking nonsense, he had played with gliders, what was that, it was the modern technology of later generations, not to mention a lot of equipment, and materials could not be realized in this era. Unless you do an improvised paraglider.

Zhao Kuangyin thought of good things, he had a lot of good things in his mind, but he couldn't do it, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister can't do anything." ”

Outright rejection.

If you follow the principle, you can make a glider with the things of this era, but in that case, can you serve this glider all your life? However, after a change of words, he said: "Your Majesty, you will work in various parts, the east government will be in charge of the government, the west government will be in charge of the army, the three yaya will guard the army, and the three divisions will guard the wealth, just like a machine is running, and each part has its own role, so that the country can operate normally." What if you put all these things together on Your Majesty? Although Weichen has learned some knowledge of personality, he can't learn it well, and he can't do it either. ”

"We must attach importance to education."

"That's exactly what Wechen meant."

In fact, Song Jiu also did two more important things.

The first is hardware tools, including all kinds of wrenches, all kinds of pliers, all kinds of screwdrivers, as well as some new files, hammers, and earth drills. Some are clumsy and hand-made, with high cost, and some require that the quality does not need to be too strict, and can be cast with a model in the future.

This is of great significance, these advanced hardware tools of later generations appeared a thousand years in advance, if Song Jiu officially promoted his physicism, coupled with the iron and steel technology to six or seven hundred years, without Song Jiu's teaching, it will not be long, the steam engine will inevitably appear in China.

These are the gadgets.

There is a difference between having them and not having them.

The second is the standard, Song Jiu implemented the standard, and the officials also implemented the standard, no matter what the Song standard is, or the standard of Kaifeng County, that is, the unified measurement, in order to achieve the standard of device size, the implementation, will not think more.

Song Jiu finally understood what cotton was recorded in the Tang Dynasty, and it was not promoted until the Ming Dynasty, and miscellaneous grains appeared in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, but they died because of the starvation of people in Shaanxi. In fact, it is the idea of officials ruling by inaction, afraid of being ridiculed and impeached, so they "rule by inaction". But it's not right, if everyone is doing something, with the rampant and domineering of officials, God knows what it will become?

This made Song Jiu equally confused.

Either the emperor personally issued an edict, Song Zhenzong issued an edict to occupy the city of rice, and Zhu Yuanzhang issued an edict to promote cotton, but looked at Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Pu and others, Song Jiu didn't say anything to his lips, he didn't understand what the power plot was, but the simple interpersonal relationship was knowledgeable, and he suggested a unified weights and measures, how would Zhao Pu react, you are a small eight-grade loose official, a skilled courtier, why do you propose to unify weights and measures?

Let's take it slowly.

Zhao Kuangyin felt that it was impossible to go up even in the ya, not to mention the common people, but the common people were happy below, and the people were happy to be stable. Therefore, after watching it for a while, he took the minister back to the palace.

Shi Baozheng and Gao Zuo Gong walked over.

Shi Baozheng can be praised by Zhao Kuangyin, although it is for the sake of his Lao Tzu's face, it is always not too bad, just now I also saw the emperor's expression towards Song Jiu in the crowd, plus people let him go to the sky again, his heart was bright, and he said: "Jiulang, when is Hezhou going to start construction?" ”

"Soon, I asked the two kings that Bianshui had not cleaned up the silt for several years, so let the imperial court organize migrant workers to clear the silt and accumulate the silt in the riverbank, otherwise the terrain of the river island is too low. Then send someone to clean it up, and there is also steel, and next spring I think the imperial court will start with the docks and bridges. Then the main store can also start construction at the same time next year. ”

"I'll take out 5,000 yuan, and Gao Dalang will take 10,000 yuan......"

"Okay, whether it's 30,000 or 10,000 or 100,000, you can buy shares." However, Song Jiu despised it in his heart, it was not unusual for the Gao family to take 10,000 and 20,000 yuan, and they succeeded in dividing dividends, and if they failed, it was estimated that Zhao Kuangyin's imperial sister would run into the palace, and Zhao Kuangyin would compensate twice. The Shi family is different, whether Shi Shouxin is praying for himself or avoiding disaster, the temple built in Luoyang costs at least tens of thousands of dollars, which is a serious investment, and only takes out 5,000 yuan, which is too little. But I also understand that these people are still not at ease, and if they pay a little money, they should play tickets. If you succeed and then add it, if you fail, you should gamble and lose.

However, Song Jiu deliberately amplified his voice.

Fu Zhaoshou heard it on the side and asked, "What shares?" ”

Song Jiu talked about the matter of becoming a shareholder in Hezhou, and continued to fool around, talking about all kinds of benefits.

I haven't seen anything else, the bread has been tasted, and people have gone to heaven, that is, the bread is sold for a consistent price, and it is estimated that there will be people who will buy it. This last day, it cost a few hundred yuan, and it is estimated that there will be people on it for the sake of curiosity. I can't think of it, but these things are all good ways to make money. The dozens of yamen around him were anxious, and Pan Weigu said: "Jiulang, you are really not interesting enough, and you won't say a word to us if you can buy shares." ”

"Pan Erlang, it's not that I didn't say it, it's that you didn't ask." Song Jiu spread his hands very innocently.

The Zhao brothers are in a hurry, Song Jiu is not in a hurry, and they can't be in a hurry, they are looking for themselves and looking for them by themselves, if they are Pan Mei, they can find them, but no. If you look for them yourself, you will lose the initiative in the future, and the effect will not be obvious. You can only put the bait down one by one and let them take the bait themselves.

This is a good thing, a group of Yanai will shift the target, gossiping about the projects that do not make money, Shuanghongqiao, schools, docks, docks may make some money but the investment is too big, but this is funded by the imperial court, so it doesn't matter, and other projects, except for a square that does not make money, everyone can make money, and the square is not profitable, and the investment is not too big, and it can be afforded. One by one, as if discovering a new continent, they began to discuss feasibility.

Shi Baozheng and Gao Zuo Gong looked nervous in their hearts, and Gao Zuo Gong asked, "Jiulang, what is our business......?" ”

"Gao Dalang, I said the other day, this will be a cornucopia, I can't eat it, you can't eat it, even the big guy eats it, and I have to share some with the court in the future, otherwise even the country will be red."

Zhao Chengzong said on the side: "Jiulang, how can the country be red? ”

"The emperor won't be blushing, but if he can earn 500,000 or 1 million guan a year, will the scholars and doctors be blushing?"

"A million."

"You go to Panlou Street, check the total annual income of those shops, and ask them how much money they can make in a year? Moreover, it is a large river island, and its area is more than ten times that of Panlou Street. One million guan is probably impossible, but half a million guan a year is not necessarily impossible. At that time, if no point was given to the imperial court, would the scholars and doctors be impeached? Don't look at your martial arts, but you have a pen and a crooked reasoning, can you talk about that group of literati? ”

Most of the Yanai are the descendants of military generals, or the descendants of military ministers, and they smile after hearing this.

The top is ascending to heaven, but the bottom is talking. Song Jiu began to explain, and then sold Guan Zi and didn't say anything. Yuping didn't know when Lu Dao squeezed over, listening to these Yanei's words, she poked the eldest sister's waist, which means that the fish are about to be hooked together, not one or two fish, but many fish.
