Chapter Ninety-Eight: Those Things in the Three Years of Jianlong (II)
If the original Shuanghongqiao is a small jasper, the current Hongqiao already has the majesty of Kyoto, Zhao Kuangyi knows that Song Jiu is unprofitable and cannot afford to be early, if it is really repaired, I don't know how many people go to watch it, and it will also become a major landscape of the capital of the Song Dynasty, and it can attract a lot of business by virtue of this alone. But it's really good-looking, just a sketch attracts Zhao Kuangyi.
After looking at it for a long time, he said, "You first calculate how much it will cost, and then the official can give you an answer." ”
"Yes."
"You go with me to the palace."
Zhao Kuangyi is not for the bridge, it is tens of thousands of dollars at most, just to get Bashu, the imperial court economy is relaxed, as long as Song Jiu is not excessive, the problem is not big, but his gold shop is not small.
He took Song Jiu into the palace and directly saw Zhao Kuangyin who was watching the recital, Zhao Kuangyin saw Song Jiu, smiled slightly, thinking that he had come to the palace for his sister's business, and did not speak. Zhao Kuangyi reported the matter one by one.
Zhao Kuangyin listened carefully, walked around, and said in the end: "Song Jiu, do you want to learn from Sang Hongyang?" ”
"Under His Majesty, Sang Hongyang's reform violated the interests of many powerful people, and the annals of history were written by them, so the criticism was useless. If there is no Sang Hongyang, how can the Han Dynasty survive the financial difficulties after the dethronement of the army? The second is Shang Ying, Shang Yang opened a precedent for the Legalists, but there was no Shang disaster, how could the Qin Dynasty be strong. If you don't do something, there will always be advantages and disadvantages to doing things, choose the big and give up the small. ”
"If it's Shang Ying and Sang Hong sheep, I don't care about it."
Song Jiu didn't know what to say, the actual Shang Yang and Sang Hongyang changes were two major events in ancient times, but the history books were scandalized worse than the devil, so he had to say: "Your Majesty, it is difficult to fight the world, it is difficult to fight, the founding land is vast and sparsely populated, there is no land pressure, the people have entered peace from chaos, and the people's hearts are also peaceful, it seems that it is easy to govern, but it is not easy to be in fact." Since the Qin Dynasty, 1,200 years, the Western Han Dynasty has been stable for more than 100 years, the Eastern Han Dynasty has been stable for more than 100 years, the Jin and Sui Dynasty have only a few decades of Chenguang, and the Tang Dynasty Tianbao was less than 200 years ago, and the real time is less than 500 years. Therefore, the ministers thought that even at the beginning of the founding of the country, if they only obeyed the will of the people and did not create various perfect systems in time, they would be left behind to their descendants. Therefore, if you want the Zhao Song Dynasty to live forever for ten thousand years, and the people will no longer suffer from division, you must want to count thousands of years and ten thousand years. ”
"Looks like you're really good at talking."
Song Jiu didn't hear whether Zhao Kuangyin was saying good or bad words, so he didn't dare to make a sound.
"But it's hard to treat you like this, I give you a founding viscount."
Where did Song Jiu stand in a daze, and was he promoted again? However, Song Jiu finally understood, this official was very uncomfortable, promoted one by one, there were several knights on the title, and the loose officials were now confused, it seems that the Song Dynasty has changed many times in history, even if it is graded, the folk saying is to divide according to the grade of the official, and the actual division is more detailed, one will be more than twenty levels, one will be more than thirty levels. Then there are the officials, the officials who want to go to the temple to pay homage to the early dynasty, and then the officials who have real power. At the end, there are twelve-level commanders, as well as other rewards, such as job field fish bags, etc., and they are promoted to three levels in a year, and it is impossible to promote several official positions in their lifetime.
can't be promoted to his own official with a word, is it a warning from Zhao Kuangyin to his sister?
I can't figure it out, but some promotions are stronger than not, thank you Lord Longen, and leave the palace.
began to get busy, the students had to catch up with their homework, test that they couldn't do without it, and they had to run to the steel superintendent.
Iron production can not be seen from the market price, the Song Dynasty iron gap is too big, unless the annual production of iron to reach 50 million catties, the price of iron can fall. The amount of iron that is now being added will not affect the market price at all. But it must have increased, and the plan has changed, and it will probably not matter if you use more than a dozen tons of iron in the imperial court.
However, there was a technique Song Jiu was helpless, and the drawing technique was helpless. In fact, the craftsmen are also trying to find a way, the wire drawing technique has been there for a long time, but Song Jiu is not eye-catching, the craftsmen change back and forth, or make circles on the stone mold, there will definitely not be much progress, but there is a craftsman according to the previous steelmaking method, found that human urine will play a lubricating role, increasing the success rate of some wire drawing. But it doesn't work to change to horse urine and pig urine, Song Jiu is sad in the face of this person's urine method.
What is the scientific principle of this?
After running for a few days, the Gao family sent the money to the Song family.
In some ways, she must have offended this eldest princess, but Song Jiu didn't care about it very much, if she was not Princess Taiping, she would be afraid. Then the money was distributed to the migrant workers, and the eldest sister's Ping An Society money was returned to the villagers one by one, and the eldest sister was so sad that she couldn't eat for a few days.
This is all a trivial matter, including the eldest princess, she is really stunned? If she does too much, she won't be able to get off the stage at that time, and she won't be able to get off the stage. But King Yama is good, the little ghosts are difficult, these gods don't know the height of the sky, and Song Jiu is afraid that they will come to mess around. There will be a trouble, the public has the reason, and the mother-in-law has the mother-in-law's reason, but it is not clear.
Then he gave Boss Hu some money and asked him to buy the land in Henan.
At this time, the imperial court also sent dozens of craftsmen to his new house, eating, drinking, sleeping and living, where is it, Song Jiu wants to build a bridge, and now the Zhao brothers see the blast furnace, and there is no longer any suspicion. But this technique must be mastered by the imperial court, so there are many craftsmen sent. This is one, and the second is that the Jinmingchi Navy kept practicing, and the pig-killing knife was sharpened, and Li Yu continued to be greedy in the Southern Tang Dynasty......
Song Jiu was calculating the amount of materials and drawing dozens of specific sketches, when Zhu San found him and said, "Jiulang, I want to go back for a while and take a vacation." ”
"How do I get back?"
"Go home and get married."
"Getting married, ......" Song Jiu didn't know if Lu Dao wanted to congratulate, Zhu San was going to get married, and he was missing an important shield. But if people want to get married, can they still stop it, saying: "Then congratulations Brother Zhu, you wait." ”
Song Jiu took out two ingots of silver from the house as a congratulatory gift, it turned out that they were all bitter, and they were not empty, and no gift was as important as money. If it wasn't too extravagant, these two ingots of silver would basically be enough for him to hold a wedding.
"This."
"Don't do this or that, I have to thank you this year."
"Don't you want me to come back?"
"You're married?"
"What else can I do without teaching?" Zhu San said helplessly, this will almost become the fate of one-third of the scholars in the Song Dynasty in the future, and they will spend their lives reading the scriptures, and as a result, they will not do anything, including being an official.
"I'd love to see you back."
"Jiulang, to be honest, if you are frugal, five taels of money a month is enough, but ......"
"What?"
"I'm worried about the establishment of the academy in the future."
"What are you worried about it for? You don't have a reputation? Do you have to be a jinshi to be famous? As a jinshi, he has already entered the court as an official, where can he still teach, and the imperial examination is so difficult, there are only a few jinshi a year, and if the gentleman of Taiyi Academy comes to take the exam, he may not be able to pass the exam. Once the academy is built, the scale will be very large, and some knowledgeable people will be invited to teach, but can you be missing? At least twenty years will be inseparable from me, and I will be inseparable from you. Now I am afraid that the academy will drag on for a long time, and once it opens, the salary will not be five dollars. ”
"Then I'll have a number, hey, why did the bridge change again?"
"It's my new idea."
Zhu San lay on it and looked at it for a while and said, "Jiulang, there is something I don't know whether to say or not." ”
"What should you and I not talk about?"
"I only say one thing in the third year of Jianlong, the second year of Jianlong, the great drought in Huainan, Jiangnan, Wu Yue did not rain for several months, and in the spring of the third year of Jianlong, the spring famine came, the people were hungry, and the officials of Sizhou in Yangzhou asked the imperial court to send grain relief. At that time, the country's finances had not yet improved, so Shen Yilun of Hubu Langzhong thought of a compromise strategy, saying that the hungry people in Yangsi would starve to death, but there were still more than 100,000 stone of grain stored in the warehouses of the two counties, and they could be used to lend to the people, so that the people could breathe a sigh of relief, and then repay the imperial court when the new millet was harvested after the autumn. However, some officials said that if there was another famine in this year, the people would all be displaced, and it would be whose responsibility it would be if they could not repay it by then. So the emperor asked Shen Yilun angrily, Shen Yilun couldn't answer, so he had to say that the country uses Su to help the people, and it is appropriate to inspire harmony, and the unity of heaven and man can lead to a bumper harvest, how can you worry about water and drought again! The emperor is talented and happy, opening a warehouse and lending to the people, and there are countless living people. It's been a long time since you heard about it? ”
That was three years ago, where was Song Jiu? Where will I hear.
Zhu San took out his heart, after all, this can also be regarded as talking about the emperor's rights and wrongs, and said: "It seems that you were even more confused than me at that time." Although the treasury was tight at that time, it was only more than 1 million stone grains, including worthless millet, more than 100,000 yuan. What is it compared to hundreds of thousands of hungry people in Yangsi? In recent years, the treasury has been getting better and better, and I have gotten Bashu again, and I heard that a lot of money has been shipped back. You build bridges for the sake of the country, and the same is true for building warehouses and docks. But the state is part of it, and part of it is for yourself. Your Majesty didn't say anything, but you are not Shen Yilun, he is a hero of the emperor's shogunate, but you are different, if someone has a bad heart, you use too much money, and you are piled up on the river island, secretly offering slander, and some bad things will inevitably happen at that time. Especially this dragon, your intention is nothing more than the dragon from the Great Song Dynasty, but the place is different, its dragon tail is on the river island you run. And your knowledge is weird, so you can't be guarded against. ”
"Your Majesty loves the people like a son......"
"It's good to love the people under Your Majesty, but where is Yangzhou rebelling and rebellious, Your Majesty is the emperor's heart, and the emperor's heart is unpredictable." In fact, what Zhu San wants to say is that although the emperor loves the people, anyone has to admit that he may be worse than the second emperor of Han Wenjing, but better than the average emperor, just like Chai Rong will also have violent times, but who can deny that he is a good emperor? However, the eyes of the heart are not wide. It is not false to reward Song Jiu with a lot of money, but once Song Jiu uses it extravagantly and wastefully, it is not 120,000 yuan, or even 108,000 yuan. In turn, if you save a province, you will save it, so much money is wasted, and it is inevitable that something unpredictable will happen at that time. Zhu San said again: "It's best to burn these drawings." ”
