Since this secret conversation, Jia Liang has always been called to the imperial study, and everyone hasn't taken it seriously at first, you must know that the Jia family has always been favored by His Majesty, and everyone knows this. But as time went by, Jia Liang went to the imperial study more and more often, and the ministers' eyes became more and more wrong when they looked at Jia Liang.

Naturally, no one dared to say that there was any strange relationship between the saint and Jia Yu, but it was obvious that after the last mission, Jia Yu wanted to do something this time.

I thought that soon this matter would be announced to the public, and everyone was waiting. But I've been waiting for almost two months, but there has been no movement at all.

Here in the imperial study, Jia Liang said to the sage seriously: "Your Majesty, I am not good at foreign studies, it's really bad." I don't lie to you at all, you let me go deeper, and I can't say anything. ”

The saint bowed his head and was silent, looking at the pile of strange-shaped drawings on the table, and secretly pondered in his heart. Is this flush toilet really that good? Can it also flush automatically? Another day, I will ask the dark guard to go to Xing's Zhuangzi to take a look, and I must not let this fool fool him.

"So, you told your son to go out to learn these things?" The sage pushed the drawings and squinted his eyes at them: "These things are the things that you say are beneficial to the country and the people?" ”

Seeing that the saint was puzzled, Jia Liang hurriedly came up and explained: "Your Majesty, there is only one family here that has this thing, and I really can't see anything." But what if every household has a flush toilet? ”

The saint frowned and asked, "What's the difference?" ”

Jia Liang said again: "Your Majesty, this flush toilet, you don't have to bother to pour it, naturally the night incense has to have a place to go, right?" Let's dig a pipe in the ground, and then dig a pool at the top of the pipe to store it. This collector of night incense no longer has to run from house to house, but just go to the pond to collect night incense.

"First, it saves manpower and material resources, and the time for people to pour night incense can be used to do other things. Second, the privacy and security of each family are guaranteed, and there is no need to be cautious about the night incense, for fear that someone will accidentally sneak into the house.

"Three, there is no smell at home, isn't it refreshing? Less embarrassment, more privacy, and less danger of going out to the toilet at night.

"And this night incense is not only in the palace, but also once every few days, and the night incense is at home, even if it is not in the place where people live, it is easy to attract mosquitoes and flies. In the summer, it is even more susceptible to infectious diseases. ”

When it comes to infectious diseases, the saint's heart is moved. Indeed, every summer, there are often outbreaks of epidemics. Although I haven't encountered it since I boarded the plane, I have to guard against it. Once this epidemic occurs, it is the fault of the emperor, and if it can be prevented, it will really benefit the country and the people.

"You said lightweight, to promote it, do you know how many tunnels to dig and how many pools to dig? If you want to dig up the ground, you have to fill it up again. If there is a problem with the underground pipeline in the future, how to solve it? ”

When Jia Liang heard the sage say this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly took out a drawing from his sleeve and handed it over.

"Your Majesty, please see, the minister is not talented, he has made a rough arrangement, and it is not yet mature. This is the underground engineering drawing of the minister's plan. This septic tank does not have to be available in every household, but is shared by one street. Each house is only connected by pipes, and the pipes of each street and every household are recorded, and they are recorded in drawings, and if there is a problem, just call someone to go to the drawings and dig them out for repair. ”

The saint looked at the drawings, and his heart moved. This Jia Yu looks stupid, but on the left side of the door, he can always have wonderful ideas.

Not to mention how the drawings are drawn, just his set of marking methods, it is very easy to remember. Streets are sorted by number, followed by each household on each street. And this set is marked with the Arabic numerals he said before, which is indeed more convenient than the Chinese numbers.

It seems that the Arabic numerals were not taught by him on a whim?

"Hmph, it's lightweight, but do you know how much manpower and material resources will be spent on this promotion?"

Jia Liang didn't pick up this time, and the old god was sitting there and said: "This is not the minister's business, this is the business of the household department, how can the minister of the Ministry of Rites interfere in the affairs of other departments." ”

The saint smiled angrily, grabbed the brush and threw it over: "Fart." ”

Gonggong Huang coughed dryly on the side and gently reminded: "Your Majesty." ”

The saint shook his head speechlessly, this Jia Yu always has the ability to provoke his own hair, but what he said is reasonable.

"That's it, there's no need to mention it. Now the treasury is not easy, so don't trouble the household department anymore. ”

After the sage finished speaking, he looked at the drawings again.

It would be false to say that he was not impressed, and if there was such a toilet that could flush away the filth at any time, he would save him a lot of embarrassment. Every time I go to the toilet, a bunch of people are staring at me, and it's uncomfortable to pull it.

Jia Liang said with a regretful face: "Your Majesty has never even seen it, how do you know that this is not good?" Why don't Your Majesty ask someone to go to my Zhuangzi and have a look, and you will know after trying it once. It's really convenient, if it weren't for the fact that the city didn't allow me to dig tunnels casually, I would have wanted to get a set in my own house. ”

The saint was happy again: "I think you want to make it easier for yourself, what is good for the country and the people!" ”

Jia Liang hurriedly said: "No, no, it is true that the country and the people are benefited, and the minister is not a selfish person." If this toilet is not good, the minister naturally does not dare to recommend it to His Majesty. Now that there is nothing wrong with using it, I dare to recommend it to Your Majesty, right? Your Majesty, think about it, with this in the palace, you won't be afraid of taste wherever you go, right? ”

The saint's heart was really loose, Jia Liang looked at his face and took advantage of the victory to pursue and said: "If Your Majesty is afraid of wasting manpower and material resources, the minister has a way to save some costs." ”

The saint smiled slightly: "Say." ”

Jia Liang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, at this time of year, there are many people in the prison, right?" It is better to take this opportunity to let them reform themselves in the way of labor. First, it shows that His Majesty is benevolent and tolerant, and secondly, it also solves the problem of manpower. Third, most of these prisoners are idle people, and they will only break the law if they have nothing to do on weekdays. Taking this opportunity to make them suffer from their labor, they may be able to repent and become new people in the future. ”

The saint asked quietly, "What if there are not enough prisoners in the prison?" ”

Jia Liang smiled: "This matter is not in a hurry, but the minister feels that this capital is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and it is time to rectify the discipline." Isn't it time for those thieves and bullying ruffians to give them a dismount? ”

The saint was noncommittal, but laughed out loud, this Jia pardon is really making people wonder what to say about him. Let's say he's serious, but when it comes to business, he's so wilted and wilted. But the bad ones are good, and I'm very satisfied.
