852, keep a hand?

Jing Wenti asked these technicians of the Ordnance Supervisor to teach those who wanted to learn the craftsman's trade, and let them serve as teachers in this technician school. And these technicians all shook their heads, obviously not wanting to be this teacher. This makes Jingwen very strange, why are these technicians unwilling to teach, Jingwen almost thinks that these technicians are not qualified to be teachers? As a result, Jing Wen only knew what was going on after asking carefully.

"My lord, if we teach our apprentices, then don't starve our master to death!" "Yes! My lord, these crafts are our ability to eat, if we hand them over casually, won't more and more people come to steal our jobs? "Your Excellency, let us go! We have old and young, we all have to live by our crafts, you let us teach others, then how do we live! "My lord, our crafts are all ancestral, can we teach them to others!" ……

These technicians said a lot, and in general, it was to the point in one sentence, that is, the apprentices of the church starved to death the master. These craftsmen rely on their crafts to eat, especially those who are high-level craftsmen. They all rely on this kind of technology monopoly to make profits, and if the technology spreads out, it will probably be very fatal. Once everyone else can master their craft, then others can also rely on this to earn income, so the competitive pressure will also increase greatly.

After Jingwen heard it, he was angry and funny, he finally realized this kind of thinking in ancient times. Jingwen has always heard that many techniques in ancient times were passed on to men but not women, and what was only passed on to immediate family members, and other outsiders did not teach them. Even, some of the more hateful ones are to "keep a hand" when teaching apprentices, which is really a thing that does not pay for people's lives. This situation has completely lost many ancient arts and various crafts. This thought has caused China to lose countless treasures, and Jingwen didn't expect that he would encounter it.

However, Jingwen can also understand them, because they also want to eat. In ancient times, there was not so much social security. It's all about the technology in your own hands. The ancients also obviously knew the importance of protecting their technology from being passed on, because once the technology was passed on, then others would be able to eat through these means, and they would not have eaten less. The market is like a piece of cake, if you eat more, I will eat less, and no one wants to eat less and eat less. And although these technicians obviously know that the market can actually be expanded, in order to ensure that the technology in their hands is not passed on, they would rather sacrifice a huge profit for a while than let their technology be passed on. It is better to let only a few people benefit from their own technology, and that will not give others the opportunity to steal it.

"None of you want to marry someone else?" Jingwen asked.

And the technicians immediately said, "My lord, don't force us. Even if you kill us, we won't teach. This is going to cut off our generational eating skills, and we won't sell the skills that have been passed down from generation to generation for a little money. And my lord, how much can you teach us these apprentices to give us? I'm afraid we can't pass on this money! ”

Jingwen is really helpless, and Jingwen really has no way to think about this kind of thinking of the ancients. Because it is impossible for Jingwen to say that it should be spread so that more people can study it together. And then promote the development of science! But in fact, it is very tragic, the ancient people did not have such noble sentiments, they cared more about the interests in their own hands. Compared with those experts and scholars, they don't have the thinking of experts and scholars teaching and educating people at all. They are just trying to mix rice for themselves, and even pass on the skills in their hands to future generations, so that future generations can also eat mixed rice. And this craft, they would rather be lost. I wouldn't want to give it to outsiders. Because he taught his apprentice to starve his master to death, this is not something to be said casually!

"Then do you dislike that those apprentices will give you too little tuition at that time?" Jingwen asked.

And one of the technicians said, "Yes, how much can those apprentices give?" And what we teach is the means of making a living. Something that can benefit generations. As long as they come to study with us, then we are harming our children and grandchildren. If they don't have discipline and teach it to more people, won't that hurt our offspring? Therefore, this technique is still as few people as possible to master, so that we can eat. So my lord, if you have to force us, then we are really going to leave, and we can't do anything here. ”

Jingwen sighed deeply, it seemed that he really couldn't force them. If Jingwen forces them to teach, then I'm afraid who knows if they will hold a grudge and then deliberately teach something wrong when they teach. Technology is a thing that misses a thousand miles, so you can't miss it in the slightest. Once they deliberately teach a little wrong, I am afraid that it will get bigger and bigger by then, and finally it will be out of control.

Therefore, if you want people to teach willingly, you must give them enough benefits. If they are forced to teach, then I am afraid that the final result will be thankless, and even more people will be trapped. In the final analysis, this is the reason for profit, because once these technologies spread, there will be more and more people who can eat, and finally gradually lose the effect of secrecy. Once the technology spreads, the market will be divided into smaller pieces, which is very undesirable for many people, especially those with vested interests. These technicians have vested interests, and they naturally resist passing on their skills to strangers. Even teaching apprentices to keep one hand is not a good thing for technological development, it is a bad thing!

"It seems that if these technicians want to teach the land completely, it is necessary to ensure their interests, so that they can teach the land willingly. But how can their interests be guaranteed? This is a big problem, and it will kill people! If their interests could not be guaranteed, then this technician school could not be established at all. At that time, the training of skilled workers, and the development of various sciences, will not be sustainable. Your grandfather's, this kind of thing that is linked to each other, wants to kill Lao Tzu! Jingwen thought.

Jingwen left, and began to think about how to protect the interests of these technicians who had taught technology, and then let them teach technology willingly. (To be continued......)
