Chapter 235: Borrowing
This time, Qiang Du was really a big deal, with Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites as the main envoy, a general of the military department as the deputy envoy, eight grandmasters, and more than 3,000 people.
Renault wondered if he was afraid of being robbed and killed on the road. The world of Great Chu is in chaos, whether you are a secret master or an envoy, as long as the meat is fat enough, there will always be those who dare to take risks. You can eat for several years with one ticket, and for those groups who are not sure where to eat their next meal, there is nothing that they dare not do.
Calling out the God of Wealth, finding the Qiang Du Mission, it is very easy to recognize, tens of thousands of horses, hundreds of carts, more than 3,000 horses, the God of Wealth only took a few seconds, and it took him a few seconds to scan.
Then it was a fine sweep, and sure enough, he found eight grandmasters in the team, and the data of two of them startled Renault, two top grandmasters of two hundred and ninety-nine.
Renault already knew that two hundred and ninety-nine was not the peak grandmaster, from two hundred and ninety-nine to five hundred and ninety-nine, it was still a cut short of the boss. It's a pity that the God of Wealth's scanning module is not enough, and these days, he is wondering if he can change the program of the scanning module.
He didn't learn programming systematically, he didn't have enough things in his head, and he tried several times, but he failed. Maybe you can start with the new energy module, where the equipment is more advanced than the scanning system of the God of Wealth, but the role is different, maybe it can be modified to add the scanning function.
"General Zhu, who is the greeting envoy from Da Chu?" asked Renault.
"In the autumn, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu, who just took office three months ago, was promoted by Emperor Chu. Zhu Chongjiu said softly. In the past six months, there has been a lot of movement in Los Angeles, and a small half of the officials have been replaced, and two of the six Shangshu books have been replaced, and it is said that even the auxiliary ministers have to be replaced.
"Lord Qiu is a grandmaster, and he is the first grandmaster of our Great Chu. Zhu Chongjiu said again, Chu Ren can be regarded as a precedent for Great Chu, and he actually invited a grandmaster to write a book.
The power of the Ministry of Rites is not small, in addition to the external state rites, the internal rituals, but also responsible for the official and private learning of Dachu.
Compared with the other five, the importance of the Ministry of Rites is worse, but it is the face of Da Chu, and it must not be sloppy.
Before the autumn, the scholars of the Ministry of Rites of Da Chu chose all the old ministers who were highly respected. In terms of age alone, Autumn is also considered an old man, over eighty years old, older than any of his predecessors.
The life expectancy of ordinary people is not much more than 50, and there are many officials who live past 70 because of their good living conditions. Living can live for so long, but being an official is not good, people are over sixty, and their energy is not good, even if they live, they will return to their hometowns.
The grandmaster has no such problem, and he can easily deal with it if he becomes an official for ten to fifteen years in the autumn. The problem is that if you are a high-ranking official, you will have less time for cultivation. I don't know how Chu Ren fooled, but he was able to ask the grandmaster to write a book.
No wonder there are five grandmasters in Da Chu's greeting team, I heard it before, Renault is still strange, why is there a singular number, standing two on one side, and three on the other? That's not good.
"Beforehand, we didn't know that Qiang Du would come to eight grandmasters, and the political affairs hall felt that sending five grandmasters already attached great importance to Qiang Du, until the scout came back with the news that he wanted to send another grandmaster, and the time was not in a hurry, so he wanted to borrow a few grandmasters under Lei Shi. ”
"Yes, there are four grandmasters from the Shengong Palace. Renault nodded and said, Fortunately, Liuyun became a peripheral member, and there was more Baiqiang, the grandmaster, otherwise there would be another singular.
Zhu Chongjiu counted Song Zhe into the count, just four, but Song Lao had already broken through the mortal and become an immortal, so naturally he would not mix with a group of grandmasters.
In the artisan camp, hundreds of craftsmen commanded thousands of apprentices and slaves, and they were in full swing. As soon as the Lei master arrived, the craftsmen were idle, not only to continue to build new pack carts, but also to create something called an airplane.
It is said that airplanes can fly in the sky, and when he first heard about it, Sun Lei was amused, and the people of the Shengong Temple will be funny, and people can fly in the sky?
Zhang Tan was not happy at that time, so he transferred a plane and performed on the spot, but as a result, all the people in the craftsman camp knelt. It's really kneeling, and I keep kowtowing.
After hearing this, Sun Lei made a decision on the spot.
Learn, you must learn, the desert army needs this thing, all the masters are gathered together, even if they don't eat or drink, they must learn to build airplanes during this time.
There is no shortage of people in the desert army with hundreds of thousands of troops and hundreds of thousands of auxiliaries, and hundreds of ninth-rank warriors can be drawn out casually, and there are even more seventh-rank and fifth-grade warriors.
Of course, it is impossible to draw them all, these warriors are all middle and senior generals in the legion, if they are all withdrawn, the desert legion will be in chaos.
Seeing the production method of the craftsman's camp, Renault silently returned to the RV, opened the box, found a plan from it, changed the inappropriate parts, and left a small paper on assembly work.
Da Chu's craftsmen still need to be improved, when he was in Dingjun City last year, he took Cui Qing and engaged in assembly operations, although he only cast arrows, and the method has been handed over to Sun Lei.
More than a year has passed, and the original foundation has long been gone, and the artisan battalion of the desert army has gone back to the old road, and the production efficiency is outrageous.
Even if he sent out this assembly line operation, Renault didn't dare to guarantee how much the artisan camp would change, this was a change in thinking, and it was too difficult for the people of Da Chu.
The things were handed over to Sun Lei, and Renault took a hundred young students from the teaching team to visit the craftsman camp from beginning to end.
As long as Renault has time, he will be with the children as much as possible, one to cultivate perception, and the other to teach knowledge and ideas.
Chu Jiayi's female officials are only responsible for teaching literacy, history, and geography, and Renault does not allow them to teach other books. In Renault's view, many of Da Chu's writings are wrong and must be corrected.
The female officers are also being trained, they got brand new textbooks, led by Chu Jiayi when they are fine, self-study the textbooks, record the knowledge points that they don't understand and don't understand, and when Renault has time, they will answer them uniformly.
Rotational teaching requires a stable environment, the team is on the road most of the time, and Renault can't run a military academy yet, so he can only make advance preparations.
After the female officials got the books of mathematics, geometry, physics, and chemistry, they were all stupid. You have to learn mathematical symbols from scratch, and many things need time to get used to, and it is not difficult to recognize these symbols, and if you want to get used to them, you don't have to think about them in a few years.
When they are familiar with the symbols, it is easier to learn mathematics, after all, they are all princesses and female officials, and their foundation is not bad. But geometry is dying, plane geometry, three-dimensional geometry......
Looking at the female officers scratching their ears and cheeks, Renault was also very helpless, this is just the basics, okay, plane geometry is the content of elementary school students.
After a few months, the questions raised by the female officers were summarized, and the paper was ten times thicker than the elementary physics textbook written by Renault.
It is gratifying to see these ridiculous questions that at least prove that these female officials are serious about their work. However, with their current level, Renault is not at ease to let them teach students.
The most terrible thing is chemistry, the female officers are like reading a book from heaven, they don't have any questions at all, they don't understand anything, they don't even know what to ask questions, it seems that this subject can only be taught by Renaud himself.
After walking through the craftsman's camp, Renaud secretly swore in his heart that he must build a real factory in the future, he did not have high requirements, as long as it was a factory, it could not be compared with the earth, at least it could not be this kind of workshop.
The convoy was managed, and Renault was finally idle, and he lived in Dingjun City for a long time, but he never had time to hang out, and he didn't dare.
At this time last year, Dingjun City was preparing to meet the army of the Forty-Eight Kingdoms, the whole city became a large barracks, the border city was closed, and all the pack gangs could only live in shops. If the war is unfavorable, the foot guards of the pack gang will be conscripted into the army.
The market is too chaotic, Renault himself doesn't dare to go out, and Zhu Chongjiu won't allow it. There is no war this year, coupled with Song Zhe behind him, which makes Renault feel like the world can go.
It wasn't Renault's request, it was Song Zhe who insisted on this, Gong Churui and Li Si were originally responsible for Renault's safety, but Song Lao drove him back to do things, and only brought Gong Churui, Mo Xiang, Huya and others with him.
The border market is very lively and dirty, and it seems that the management here is not in place. In fact, the situation in Dachu is similar, not to mention the border cities, even the east and west cities of Los Angeles, which are not clean, which reminds Renault of the institution of chengguan, and when he builds the city by himself in the future, he must carry forward the chengguan.
Don't look at the scale of the border market, but there are not many types of goods in it. The merchants from Dachu mostly used daily necessities such as cloth and salt. The border market is dominated by livestock, honey, precious metals, and medicinal materials.
"There's no wool for sale here?" Renault asked in surprise after looking around.
"Wool, who wants that?" said Huya, thinking that the gentleman was sick again.
"Oh. Renault nodded, and didn't explain, it seems that Da Chu's wool process has not yet started, how to deal with that thing?
It seems to be washed and then boiled, and degreased......
Coming down, Renault was also blind, he didn't study light industry, and he didn't know how to deal with wool.
The processing process of wool is still quite complicated, there is no machinery, if it is all manual, the cost is too high, and it is not as good as silk fabrics such as hemp and silk.
Forget it, I'll talk about this later, Renault made an invention, and he himself felt that it was unreliable, so he didn't succeed.
The products in the southwest are still quite abundant, and even green ginseng can be seen in the border market, this kind of thing, in Los Angeles, you can only buy it in the pharmacy, and the high price is depressing.
If you spend money to buy it, a purple shadow can bankrupt Renault.
"What kind of stone is this?" Renault asked, looking at the transparent stones on a stall, looking at the elephant crystals, but there were too many of them, and the stall owner casually piled large piles of transparent stones on the ground.
"This is a translucent stone, which is used to grind beads and wear strings, and the noble ladies of Da Chu like it. Huya glanced at it and said, the businessman is naturally no stranger to the specialties of Dingjun City.
