Chapter 439: Confession

Wu family because of Wu Guan's invention, in one fell swoop became the largest silk weaving manufacturer in Jurong, Wu Guan and the Yue family, almost monopolized this aspect of the business, he was also elected as the president of the Maocheng Silk Weaving Association, when he was more than 30 years, when he was old, he told reporters about the past, and patted his chest very proudly: "Heroes are sad to pass the beauty pass, love beauty is not a bad thing, don't we turn bad things into good things?" ”

The reporter asked: "Then you later made a new loom, and several big bosses were willing to marry their daughters, and even one was an only daughter, why did you refuse?" ”

Wu Guan said: "Three thousand weak water, let's only take one scoop to drink, I have a real relationship with my wife, or where will I eat my father-in-law's calculations?" Otherwise, this silk weaving industry is the monopoly of my surname Wu. "That's all for later.

The success of Wu Guan inspired more young people to take the road of science to get rich, and some people gave up the imperial examination, bought mathematics and science books from bookstores, studied hard at home, and if possible, made or bought experimental equipment, and began scientific research.

Wu Guan uses water energy to push the silk loom, and some people think that they can use water energy to build a rice machine, and some people want to make electricity, so all kinds of whimsical ideas continue to emerge, and both sides of the river bank near Maocheng are full of various machines, and this place suddenly entered the industrial age.

Science and technology are the primary productive forces, this is an eternal truth, the productive forces have developed to a certain extent, and the feudal society can not exist anyway.

Wen Jin is not unreasonable to worry, for example, the entry of the Qing Dynasty made the Ming Dynasty take a big step back from science and technology to system, not to mention the impact of the Yuan Dynasty on the Song Dynasty.

Qian Jun sent someone to take his princess back to Beijing, Wen Jin saw that Su An had become accustomed to it, and it seemed that he not only accepted the reality, but also was at ease in the new way of doing things, so he was relieved, arranged various affairs, and returned to Kyoto by boat.

Emperor Taishun is a chronic kidney disease, survived for a few years, has run out of oil, Wen Jin went back not long after, he died, Qian Jun was appointed as the auxiliary king, Taishun's eldest son was ten years old, enthroned in the dynasty, the year name Anhe, Emperor Anhe is very smart, but the age is there, still a puppet.

Wen Jin wanted her husband to take this opportunity to promote the rapid development of society, in order to make her husband no longer doubt her proposal, and also considering that the husband and wife were already about to enter the age of Benliu, she didn't need to hide it from her husband, but she didn't dare to say that she was a soul piercing, it was too terrifying, I was afraid that her husband would not accept it.

"Lord Wang, I'll tell you a big thing."

Qian Jun was frightened by Wen Jin's serious appearance, and asked a little worriedly, "What's wrong?" ”

"No, no, it's been more than ten years."

"Oh." Qian Jun breathed a sigh of relief, "Say it." ”

"When I was reincarnated, I didn't drink Meng Po soup, but when I grew up, I suddenly remembered the events of my previous life.

Qian Jun was really shocked: "Is it the same as money?" ”

"No, money is heavy work, I was not in the Jurong Dynasty in my last life, but in a very, very free and developed world, the common people can afford to eat meat, can afford to wear silk, all the children are studying, and the streets are full of cars, oh, it is similar to the tram, you can run without a horse, and there are also airplanes, big birds made of metal lighter than iron, which can fly in the sky, a big plane, can fit hundreds of people, from here to Maocheng, you don't need an hour, you can arrive."

Qian Jun believed that Wen Jin didn't lie to him, but he couldn't think of what that kind of world was like, but he was sure that it was a world that was too much better than the current society, and he looked at his wife with more pity, couldn't help it, hugged Wen Jin, and then patted her back and said, "You suffered." ”

"No, no, if I can meet you in this life, it's not bitter, it's sweet, it's all alive there, just get used to it."

"Right now, you just want to turn this place into that kind of society?"

"It's a lot, we can't see the two of us, but we should work in that direction, right?"

"Are you sure that the common people can afford to eat meat and wear silk?" Qian Jun thought, how much grain do you have to feed pigs, cows, and chickens, if that's the case, what do people eat?

Wen Jin didn't care about his doubts, and replied to himself: "Only a very few, such as people in the mountains, will be poor, but there are already very few people, when I passed away, the government, No, that is, the imperial court was moving them out in batches and batches. The court paid for the construction of houses, and then divided the land for them, and also sent people to teach them how to farm the land, so that they could become rich as soon as possible. ”

"Well, how good the officials are there." Qian Jun thought it was incredible, is there such a good official?

"It's not how good the officials are, it's the system, the government there, first of all, they have to think about how to make the life of the people under their rule better, if they can't do this, their officials won't be able to continue. That's what I'm talking about in terms of system. ”

Qian Jun thought about it, although the officials are now responsible for the emperor, but the framework given to him by Wen Jin, those officials do contain and supervise each other, and no one has a chance to make mistakes.

"On our side, there are also people who study Confucianism, but very few, most of them, will learn some code of conduct, moral knowledge, and the other thing to learn is science, so yes, there are people there who specialize in how to grow crops, an acre of land yields thousands of catties, and there are people who specialize in how to raise cattle, how to raise chickens, how to raise ducks, how to raise fish, and then teach these skills to farmers, so the life of farmers is very good, you see I give you an analogy, apples, so big, fragrant and sweet, much better than what we eat, and peaches, It's so big, pear, oh, bigger. ”

Qian Jun frowned, a little puzzled: "How could those people be so kind?" Research it yourself, don't plant it yourself, plant it for others? ”

"The imperial court gives them a lot of money, and whoever does it well will have more money, and it is easier and more profitable than growing fruit at home."

Qian Jun thought about it and understood what was going on, he raised his head: "Hehe, the method you said, it's really good, it's really good, no wonder you want me to reform, if you can change such a world, I don't want to be famous, it's not too much to be famous." ”

"Lord Wang, don't blame me for pouring cold water on you, no matter how much we do, we won't be like that for a while, and we have to continue to work hard for the younger generations, but we have worked hard to pull social development in that direction, this is a great credit."

"Well, I understand this, this is a big thing, it is more difficult than Gaozu destroying the previous dynasty and establishing Jurong, not to mention, the systems you said may not be copied."

Wen Jin nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Well, well, yes, yes." ”

Qian Jun asked: "What else do you have there that I don't know?" ”

"On our side, there is also a train, originally, this is the first thing that appeared on our side, because of my intervention, we became the first to get out of the tram here."

"What does the train look like?"

"Oh, that's even stronger, one trip can pull thousands of people, run two or three thousand miles a day, very stable, make a bed on it, you can sleep, there is a bathroom above, you can wash your face and brush your teeth when you sleep, and buy some breakfast."

"And the kitchen?"

"Uh-huh."

"If you can take a look, you'll die immediatelyβ€”"

Before Qian Jun finished speaking, he was covered by Wen Jin: "Don't say death, I won't be able to live if you die." ”

"Okay, don't say it, don't say it." Qian Jun hugged Wen Jin tighter, worthy of being a martial arts practitioner, his arms are still very strong, and his whole body is still strong and tight, and he does not look old at all.

Wen Jin pinched his skin and sighed.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm old."

"Where is the old? I heard that in Maocheng, there are still people who treat you as Mango's sister. Thinking of a Westerner, holding a bouquet of flowers to offer to his wife, Qian Jun couldn't help but be jealous in his heart.

Wen Jin was embarrassed: "Don't say it, the women have thick skin, and they look old when you look closely, so I can't see the age of the people on our side." ”

Qian Jun was still indignant, Wen Jin had no choice but to comfort him gently, and the two digressed as they spoke......

Qian Jun had a goal, and immediately made drastic changes and began to change, under his promotion, in the first year of Anhe, he changed the Gentlemen's Bureau into a parliament and presided over the parliamentary election.

After a few years of education for all, more than one-third of the people are literate, and the proclamations have been posted in various places, and the people are happy and encouraged, and things are going very smoothly.

Soon, the elected parliamentarians at all levels began to perform their duties, and most of them, whether they were scholars or businessmen, had never been officials, nor did they understand the twists and turns of officialdom, and they went straight to act in accordance with the constitution of the parliament, and all the officials had a sword of Damox hanging over their heads, forcing them to be honest.

Of course, this is also due to Qian Jun, who is the auxiliary political king, and fully supports the parliament, so that the parliamentarians have confidence.

The pace of democracy, although slow, but step by step, getting closer and closer, Wen Jin was also very active in the capital, often organizing gatherings of noble women, sometimes for the husband's new policies to stand up, sometimes to help smooth out those emotionally resistant aristocratic officials, moreover, she also proposed that the times are different, men and women are the same, encouraging women to go out of the house and win their own piece of the sky.

Those noble ladies were very envious of Wen Jin, and met a good husband who was enlightened and gentle, although they did not dare to take a step beyond Lei Chi, but Wen Jin's propaganda drove a group of young noblewomen to pursue happiness. There are many women in the capital who propose to withdraw from their relatives, and there is even a married woman who proposes to divorce, she does not want to go back to her parents' home, and decides to take care of the dowry industry by herself and live a ** life. Wen Jin's actions can be said to have completely subverted the code of conduct of high-ranking women in the capital, and for some people, it can be said that it ruined the three views, some people hate her to the bone, but some people support her.
