Chapter 105: The Wanderer (I)
Song Jiu didn't care, looked at it with interest, and asked, "Tsing Yi, where did you get it from?" ”
"I saw it in Yingtianfu and bought it."
"How much?"
"Eight hundred yuan, I paid back the price, and I bought it for seven hundred and twenty yuan."
"Jiulang, how can this be, they use your knowledge to make money," Cui'er said urgently. The students have started the class, and the chores at home are done by the students, which is to cultivate the students' hands-on ability. Yuping's master and servant, except for Li's mother, were idle. Yuping often went grocery shopping with her eldest sister to see how her small liquor shop was run, and asked a few people who were involved in the ya's business to better understand the business procedures of the main restaurant. Or spare time, make a few clothes for Song Jiu, or look at Song Jiu's handouts and teaching materials with Cui'er.
It's from the back, in the Tang Dynasty how Song Jiu didn't know how to do it, but in the Song Dynasty, it was impossible for a woman to huddle with the students to study. She and Cui'er are more familiar with the textbook, although there are dozens of students to help, this textbook also took Song Jiu a long time, and until now, the half-semester compilation has not been completed.
There is no engraving printing, the cost is too high, only a hundred or dozens of copies are not worth it, and they can't wait, so they asked Zhang Yan and the others to invite a scholar to continue copying. It was from these scholars that the teaching materials flowed out. Now Song Jiu is looking at arithmetic textbooks. After Tsing Yi saw it in Ying Tianfu, he paid attention, bought a copy, and reported it to Song Jiu.
Song Jiu knocked on Cui'er's head and said, "What do you know, this is a good thing." ”
"What's that good thing about?"
"Tsing Yi, do you want to understand?"
"Good thing...... I don't quite understand. ”
"Three teachings and nine streams, what peasant novelist Yin and Yang family don't talk about. The main school is Confucianism and Taoism, and the Shijia is not counted. It was passed down from Tianzhu. Taoism does nothing, but pays attention to birth. Therefore, it is difficult to use. Both Legalism and Confucianism are born, and Legalism is too harsh. Therefore, the moderate Confucianism became the most authentic after the end, but whether it is Taoism, Yin and Yang, agriculture, soldiers, miscellaneous, vertical and horizontal and other schools, they all have their strengths, and in fact, later generations have absorbed their strengths and weaknesses and integrated them into Confucian scholarship. But why not Confucianism to accommodate other doctrines? ”
"Jiulang, yes, I know the way, education."
". Throughout his life, the master taught countless people, including the proud seventy-two disciples, so he quickly carried forward his scholarship, even if Confucianism actually played a small role in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. ”
"What are you talking about?"
"Cui'er, I'm teaching arithmetic and accounting, and in order to simplify, arithmetic quotes some Western symbols, plus accounting. The accounts are less likely to be confusing. With the grid, it will be possible to increase the country's iron production, among other things. But on the other hand, the grid is miscellaneous. If you don't get it right, it becomes a trick. The combination of arithmetic and accounting is financial management, and a gentleman is ashamed to talk about profits. If this argument becomes mainstream. How will that be? ”
"How can there be such a reason!"
"Yes, I'm going to inspect the Hebei pit mine. Some ministers pretended to be high-ranking and did not ask about the income of the imperial court. Don't ask how much the mine receives, in order to show shame and profit. Actually, if they are not paid for a few months, and the Master says that he can carry the bullwhip for gold, then they will be willing to do a trilogy for money! This is no longer the original intention of the master, the way of the master is to take the right way, the way of wealth, the way of official, the way of virtue, all take the right, not not to take, otherwise how can there be a saying that the family will be united first and then the country will be governed. However, the light of the Wei and Jin dynasties is still poisonous, why, it is precisely because there are many people who learn and have great influence. Therefore, the key to the success of this knowledge is that there are many people who learn it, and more and more people recognize it. ”
"But that's ......," Cui'er still couldn't think of.
"It's a good thing, it can be sold for money, it shows that people value it, and if you buy it back, you will learn, if you only sell dozens of pen, ink and paper money, who cares? If it weren't for the rush of time, the textbooks I am now writing have many defects, and I am short of money, otherwise I would have spent money to print them on a large scale and sell them to the people at a discount. ”
"Jiulang, do you want to be a master?"
"What master, I just want this science to be recognized by the scholars, as arithmetic has been in the past, and not to regard it as a mere skill. Pedant? Do you think it's possible? It's like how much you respect the two wise men. But what is the main purpose of the Academy? Why did the students cause a bombardment as soon as they came out, is it really Jingyi? ”
It's just such a hurdle, but people just can't turn around, what can Song Jiu do?
It doesn't matter, this is the best era, but also the worst era, the worst era is that politics has not entered the gentle and elegant times, and the officials who are not punished by the sergeant doctor are happy, and the best era is when everything is overthrown, and you can start all over again.
"I see."
"You still don't understand, as long as more people admit that it is a useful science, two doctors competed for the mountain a few days ago, and there was no need to fight at that time!" Song Jiu said and arranged Tsing Yi to Class A. Class A students saw someone cutting in line, and a few of them whispered, but then it was quiet.
The national strength of the Southern Tang Dynasty was not strong, but the cultural and educational undertakings were developed, and Han Xizai and Zhang Xun and others were too famous, and even among the students, some people read Han Xizai's articles. Even if it is Han Xizai's servants, it is an honor to study with them.
Song Jiu found Dr. Yan.
Dr. Yan taught Ming Law, and he knew more about Song Law, and he was one of the participants in the formulation of Song Law the year before last.
Song Jiu told him what had happened, and Dr. Yan said: "According to Song law, concubines also have their own property rights, whether it is property gifted by their ex-husband or their mother's family, the husband's family shall not forcibly embezzle it. However, Jiulang, things are a little difficult to handle, Han Bachelor is the minister of the Tang State, one cannot cross the river to confront the court, and the other is against the country, not our dynasty. ”
"I know that I don't pursue the property, Tsing Yi is very smart, as long as you study hard for a few years, you don't have to worry about no future, and you will have a future property. I just wanted to save his mother. ”
"It's a bit tricky."
"Is our dynasty the rule of man or the rule of law?"
"Who governs the rule of law...... Well, as long as you can make sense, it's still the rule of man. Dr. Yan was confused at first, then sobered up, and still didn't understand the meaning of these two words. Of course, it is impossible to talk about the rule of law at this time, if the rule of law is spoken, Zhang Qiong should not die, and Wang Quanbin will die thousands of times. But he knew what Song Jiu was thinking, and said: "Jiulang, don't worry, the Bi family just thinks that Tsing Yi has money in his hands, and he is greedy for a few more money." But it's better not to make a big deal about this matter, and it's not easy to talk about it when the time comes. ”
"I understand," Song Jiu said. Han Xizai put a shiny coat on Tsing Yi, and at the same time put on some small troubles.
"You say don't be in a hurry to Tsing Yi, the old man goes back and asks who the governor of Hezhou is and who he is close to, and then you go to those Yanei, and give some money when the time comes, plus the local governor comes forward, I believe the Bi family has to hand over the people."
"It's a way."
It was not difficult to inquire, and the next day Dr. Yan brought back the news, saying that Ma Zhizhou had previously been a scribe of Shi Shouxin.
That's enough.
Song Jiu brought Shi Baozheng over and told him about the situation again. Shi Baozheng said angrily: "Jiulang, don't worry, I will let the Bi family vomit out the blood and flesh together." ”
"Don't use it, I'll give you a hundred yuan, just settle the matter calmly, you can't do much, after all, Tsing Yi is Han Xizai's servant." Song Jiu said in his heart, isn't it normal for people to be greedy for money, just like your father, for a little money, he actually owed migrant workers.
"It's better to give money and take care of it," Shi Baozheng said.
Tsing Yi was about to kneel again, but Song Jiu helped him up and said, "The man has gold under his knees, don't kneel at every turn." ”
It was raining outside, it was not big, it was falling endlessly, the wind was blowing, and the rain curtain was blowing, Song Jiu seemed to see the leaf boat from the rain curtain and heard the line of cappella. In fact, after coming to the Song Dynasty, I had a lot of contact and thought about it, but the more I thought about it, the more confused I became.
Sending Shi Baozheng away, Song Jiu looked through the history books.
Mathematics, physics and chemistry will definitely not solve the problem of displaced people, and it is inevitable to go west, Song Jiu will not plan to look at it as closely as Hunan, at least he can still see a little bit in Hunan, what can he see in Bashu? Therefore, from the annals of history, we find ways to settle displaced people in various dynasties and generations. Some are bad, some are good, but it is a good way to put it at the time, if it comes out of your mouth and puts it in Bashu, it may add a bigger mess, so it's better not to say it.
Just as he was thinking of a way to resettle the homeless, the homeless came.
The Yellow River was in crisis, Zhao Kuangyin was ready to build the ancient embankment, and the speakers saw that the country's financial resources were poor and opposed it together. In fact, it is not very easy to do, even if it costs a lot of money to repair the ancient embankment, it is long, more than a thousand miles, and it may not work. Last year, the river was decided in Dongping County, which was on Jingdong Road, and there was still some distance from the capital, so I couldn't feel it. However, this year is closer, with the continuous autumn rains, first the Yangwu River in the northwest of Kaifeng Prefecture was broken, and then the Mengzhou River in the west of Kaifeng Prefecture rose and flooded many places. The two states of Lanyun reported that the river was broken, and the whole one bloomed on all sides, and it was very close to the capital.
The only good thing is that the people are not so dense now.
There are many places where the floods have caused the displacement of hundreds of thousands of people, but the impact of this flood is also very large. Zhao Kuangyin issued an edict to send soldiers to help plug the gap. But then another question arises.
It is not clear how much arable land was flooded, and it is not clear how many people were affected. However, in the river, you can feel that the water level of the Yellow River is also soaring. The government organized the people to fight the flood on both sides of the river, and when they saw that the water level was gradually on par with the embankment, they blocked the embankment with mud bags. Some of the people in the city began to appear waterlogging, Kaifeng Caoyun developed, but the most afraid is waterlogging, the sewage water can not be discharged, and the whole city can be fascinated with a bad smell.
The construction site was completely stopped.
The soldiers were transferred to block the breach of the Yellow River and provide disaster relief. Some of the people are farmers, and the autumn harvest is coming, so they must harvest. Fortunately, when Hezhou was being built at that time, Song Jiu was not afraid of spending money and raised the terrain very high. No matter how high the water level is, there is no obstacle to the riverbank.
In the autumn rain, there were not many people left on the riverbank, only a few hundred, to be maintained and watched.
Then groups of ragged homeless people poured into the capital from all directions. Some homeless people poured into the river, looking at these homeless people, Song Jiu had an idea in his heart, go to Han Chongyun first. Han Chongyun also ran home early, not on the construction site, Song Jiu went to Han's house to find Han Chongyun, gave a salute first, sat down and said: "General Han, there is a great achievement, is General Han willing to accept it?"
