It seems that all of a sudden, the big guys understand that if it is beneficial to the common people, those craftsmen who make new utensils seem to be more beneficial to the people and can improve the situation of the people.

Moreover, it is much easier for ordinary people to send their children to learn a trade than to send them to school.

Just like in recent months, the construction of the widely praised mansion. The apprentices they recruited not only learned the trade, but also provided pen and paper to teach the apprentices to read and write.

If craftsmen can work in such a place as Guangsha Construction, not only will the craftsmen and masters be well paid, but the apprentices will not only be able to read and write, but they will also have a reward for learning words and crafts, and there will be a future to look forward to.

This is much better than smashing silver to study, the piles of down-and-out talents on the street are just holding on to face and waiting for death, where is Yan Ruyu and the Golden House waiting for them? Let's talk about it in the next life.

To put it bluntly, whether you are studying or learning a craft, it is just to earn a good life for your family.

Just when these discussions quietly began from all corners and intensified, the excerpts about farmland harvests in Wonju and surrounding states and counties were handed to the capital.

Although the first rain in Wonju was already in July, due to the timely follow-up of the ploughing cattle and various new agricultural tools dispatched by the imperial court, the speed of this rush to harvest seeds was more than doubled. In particular, those agricultural tools are miraculous and are widely praised and respected by local officials and ordinary people.

With this buckwheat harvest in the affected areas, and a small amount of relief grain from the imperial court, thousands of people will have something to eat. Not only can the people continue their lives, but the pressure on the court is also greatly reduced.

When the excerpt was sent in, it was already dark, and the four ministers of the cabinet thought that this was a good thing, and of course the good news should be sent to the palace as soon as possible to make the emperor happy.

The emperor was reprimanding Jinrong at this time, pointing his finger at the table with "dangdangdang", and said angrily: "It's too unusual!" The saints educated the stupid people, and only then did we have the prosperity of the Celestial Empire. Otherwise, wouldn't the people of the world still be ignorant people who drink blood? You've gone too far! ”

When doubts arose in Jingzhong about Ji Fu and Qingliu, Li Mian reported it to the emperor.

Li Mian alluded to that the reason why this matter could spread so widely and logically in such a short period of time was because of the people in Yuwangfu's control.

The emperor didn't need to think about it to understand the reason, so he announced Jinrong into the palace.

Jinrong looked disapproving: "Of course, there is the power of reading, if you have the ability, it is not impossible for all the people in the world to read and reason." It's just that it seems a bit too much to elevate such a small group of people, and just to elevate these people, to regard the study of the subset of scriptures and histories as the top and most important thing in the world, and to trample all other industries in the world under their feet and restrict their development. ”

The emperor's eyebrows jumped, and he did not refute at the first time.

What Jinrong said, the emperor also recognized. Since the orbit was put into operation and the utensils made in Yuyuan County were used, the emperor truly felt the prosperity of the handicraft industry and the great usefulness of the craftsmen. However, Ke Jinrong can't be so impatient, and he will push things like this all of a sudden.

It's better that rumors only spread in the capital, at least this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, if something unexpected happens, the imperial power is in hand, and it can be suppressed and controlled soon.

The problem is that this rumor has now spread outward. If this kind of remarks are allowed to spread to other states and counties, or even to remote places, and the emperor is far away, if the righteous indignation of the scholars is aroused, and then there are people with ill intentions who add fuel to the fire, and if it is not well controlled, it will be a major event.

Although there are not many scholars who can afford to read, if all the scholars in the world gather, the number is also considerable.

The emperor's various thoughts turned several times in his heart, but he still insisted on his opinion: "In short, your methods are too impatient and your progress is too fast. Now that this matter has had a certain effect, arrange for your people to stop immediately, and there is no prevarication and delay! ”

"It's a pity that such a good opportunity."

Jinrong muttered, rolled her eyes and pursed her lips before she agreed very reluctantly. was seen by the emperor at a glance, and smashed a book of folds with his hand.

The emperor reprimanded: "Not only do you not respect the emperor's order, but you have also learned to show me a face!" "This kid, this isn't the first time, is it? If he is given the position of crown prince, his tail must not be raised to the sky!

"Where? Father, you are mistaken. With a respectful face, Jinrong hurriedly stood up, picked up the fold, and returned it to the emperor. But I can't stop slandering in my heart, this is what Ye Zi said about power, my father is simply unreasonable! Where did he go wrong? How good is this done, how much is it in place?

If it weren't for the opportunity he created, how could the celebrities who read on the altar see that they are also human beings, have the same selfish desires, and have the same unsightly thoughts?

At this time, the four ministers headed by Han Yanhui asked to see each other, and presented the excerpts reported by officials in Yuanzhou and other places.

The Emperor waved his hand and asked everyone to sit down. He took the fold and read it once, and he was in a good mood, and then read it carefully from beginning to end before he was really happy.

Although the buckwheat harvest in these places is gratifying, it is the cattle that have been transported by cattle farms and the new agricultural tools sent by Yuyuan County that have made a real difference.

The emperor solemnly put the fold on the table and said with a smile: "This drought coincides with the emptiness of the treasury, and thanks to the efforts of several Aiqing and all the courtiers, money, grain, materials, seeds, and farming materials can be supplied in time. All Aiqing has made great contributions. ”

The four ministers who had already sat down stood up together and congratulated him: "Your Majesty is blessed with all the heavens, so that there is such a favorable time and place." The ministers have only made a modest effort, and they should not be approved by His Majesty. ”

The emperor smiled and waved his hand, asked a few people to sit down, and said, "This is really a great event. Since raising cattle is profitable and can also promote farming, the local government can support the families or businesses that build cattle farms. ”

Han Yanhui and the others hurriedly responded.

"As for farm tools," the emperor turned to Jinrong, "the agricultural officials of Wonju said that the agriculture produced by the mechanical workshop was of high utility. You discuss with the Ye family's Nizi, what kind of conditions does she want, so that she can promote the drawings and production methods of those farm tools and benefit the people of the world. ”

Jin Rong was stunned, the matter of Ji Mansion has given the world an opinion on scholars, and now there are new tools in Yuanzhou and other places, which is convenient. At this time, shouldn't we take advantage of the situation to promote the process of patent law and artisan-level treatment?

But in front of these many people, he couldn't refute it, so he had to say perfunctorily: "Yes, Erchen will go back to discuss with the Jiang family." In fact, the father is also worried in vain, if it is profitable, as long as a few of these utensils are sold, there are many imitations. ”

Seeing that Jinrong's tone and attitude were so perfunctory, the emperor frowned and said, "What? But is it difficult? ”

Jin Rong pondered his tone and said, "Erchen thinks that this time should be the time to discuss the role of handicrafts and craftsmen, and other things can be put aside for the time being. ”

As soon as he said this, others were fine, but Liu Chengzhi's face immediately became unsightly. Women are expensive
