"Sir, I think that although the existence of other chess pieces in chess is not completely consistent, but they can all be related to the actual battlefield of the troops, Yan Ran does not understand what kind of existence the cannon is, and why is the middle of the chessboard called Qinling Huaihe?"

Ji Yanran was slightly puzzled, and looked at Wang Li with a pair of beautiful eyes.

Listening to Ji Yanran's question, Wang Li said, there are many people who have played chess now, but no one asked this question, that is, the meaning of General Lian Po asked the cannon last time, Wang Li looked at the gun carriage with him, and the others were playing.

As for the Qinling Huai River? In this era, there is no Chu River and Han realm, and Wang Li directly quoted this group of terms.

Wang Li glanced at the chessboard: "The cannon is a large wooden siege machine, which can throw stones and other heavy objects below a thousand catties to five hundred paces away. ”

"I see, but this kind of cannon has never appeared, so I guess the cannon was created by Mr." Ji Yanran's beautiful eyes were clear and bright, full of curiosity and admiration, which was completely different from the laziness she used to treat others.

Listening to Ji Yanran's question, Wang Li smiled and didn't say anything, just stood up, took out a long roll of paper from the cabinet behind him, and immediately unfolded it in the confusion of Ji Yanran and the other women.

"What is this, sir?" Wu Tingfang looked at the picture on the paper and frowned and asked, the other women also stretched out to look, Feng Fei suddenly saw a familiar name Qi on the drawing, and then looked elsewhere in surprise: "This is the map of the countries of Kyushu?" ”

As soon as the map was taken out, Ji Yanran looked at the names on the map in shock, as well as the mountains and rivers of different colors on the map. There are also borders of various countries.

"I call this picture the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period." looked at Ji Yanran's shock. Wang Li said with a smile. Then he pointed to a mountain range on the map, from the Qin State in the west to the Jianghuai region in the Chu State in the east: "This mountain range is called the Qinling Mountains, and this is the Huai River east of the Qinling Mountains. ”

"The Qinling Mountains and the Huai River, which traverse the east and west of Kyushu, directly divide Kyushu into two areas, north and south, and use this boundary as the boundary to divide the climate and topography of the north and the south, which also leads to great differences in humanities and agriculture between the south and the north."

"This is the dividing line between the north and the south of the Kyushu region, and this chess, I am fighting between the north and the south."

"I see." Ji Yanran and the girls were all stunned. Then her gaze fell on a land in the south, which was the land of her ancestors.

After a little explanation, Wang Li put away the map, and then played chess with this talented girl, Wu Tingfang watched from the side, waiting for "good news", this time she looked for Wang Li to come out but to find a field.

In about a minute, the good news came out, "will", Wang Li moved the cannon to the middle. With both guns in unison, the general could not move left and right in the camp. Ji Yanran lost in surprise on her face.

Wu Tingfang said how powerful Ji Yanran is, Wang Li, but she is only a beginner's level, she knows the rules of the Tao, but she lacks experience, but she is much stronger than Wu Tingfang's confused and chaotic play, Wu Tingfang's level, that is, the level of the second half of the chessboard turned over and dark chess, no wonder she was abused to death.

As a result, as soon as Ji Yanran ran into Wang Li today, Wang Li beware of the cannon, she didn't use a horse to guard the middle soldiers, Wang Li then went through the cannon, and then moved the other cannon to the edge of the boundary.

Ji Yanran wanted to step on the cannon standing on the middle soldier position at this time, but Wang Li ignored the double cannon general, and closed the game in one round, which was really bullying the novice, and won it in a few moves at the fastest speed.

"Great, sir won." Wu Tingfang said with a smile on the side, Ji Yanran frowned slightly, and then solemnly said unconvinced: "Come again." ”

The chessboard was reset, this time Ji Yanran learned from Wang Li's previous game to hang a cannon in the center, Wang Li was a prancing horse guard, and a new game began again, and he had the experience of being crushed to death by double cannons for the first time, Ji Yanran always paid attention to this game, but was crushed to death by Wang Li's horse and cart two minutes later.

That's it, in the next five or six games, Ji Yanran couldn't help but be killed by Wang Li in various ways, but she lost a lot, and it became more and more difficult for Wang Li to win, and in the seventh game, it was difficult for Wang Li to win her as easily as before.

"Will!" Wang Li smiled and looked at Ji Yanran opposite, Ji Yanran frowned slightly, the soldier blocked back, Wang Li moved the car and put it on the same road as her car, and the cannon on the bottom line was set up again, but it was a slap, and she was going to take out the only car she had the most reluctant.

"Again." Ji Yanran didn't look at it, no longer struggled to the death, directly admitted defeat, and prepared to rearrange the plate.

At this time, the carriage slowed slightly, and Wang Li raised his head and looked out the window: "Wuzhuo, where are you?" ”

"Lord Si Li, you have already arrived at the brick field in the north of the city."

"Meet the celebrant." Before Wang Li's carriage arrived, someone had already greeted him.

"Get up." The king got out of the carriage, waved his hand to the greeter, and then welcomed the ladies down one by one, and then looked around to see the situation.

This is in Handan City, not far from the Wujia Castle in the north, when it was established, it was Wang Li who personally pointed out the address after giving the design of the craft and related utensils, there are rich and suitable clay resources, and it is the most suitable for making and turning.

"Sir! That's a lot of bricks, huh? As soon as Wu Tingfang got out of the carriage, he was stunned by the bricks being dried on the flat ground in the field, and saw that on the huge flat ground, rows of bricks were neatly stacked, just looking at this scale was unprecedented.

In this era, there were also brick burning, but limited to various tools and other reasons, even the largest scale was not half the size of the brick factory organized by Wang Li and the princes of the royal family, otherwise there should be a lot of brick and stone buildings, not only the princes and nobles could use a small amount.

It seems that many other doctors are only adobe houses or wooden houses, and the adobe houses are not very good-looking, so they paint the walls with lime once.

Wang Li once saw that there were people who traveled through novels to make lime in the past, but in fact, lime existed in the pre-Qin period, but it was limited to technical techniques, and the quality was slightly worse than that of modern times, and it was not so snow-white.

And even if it is concrete, in this era, the West has begun to have simple ones.

In the east, clay, fine sand and lime were used in large quantities to build important city walls and major structures such as mausoleums, and many of the palaces of King Zhao were mostly made of triple clay. It's very sturdy and durable. In later generations, Helian Bobo, the lord of Great Xia, built Tongwan City, known as the city of steel, and also built a city with Sanhe soil.

"And that's just adobe. If you want to make usable red bricks, you have to fire them, and look over there, the brick buildings piled up everywhere are bricks waiting to be fired. ”

Under the guidance of Wang Li, everyone went to the center of the brickyard to see the incomparably huge scene in this summer, but hundreds of people were working here in full swing.

This brick factory is not a brick factory in later generations, there is no shovel for shoveling earth, and there is no brick machine for bricking.

How to make bricks? In the modern eighties and nineties, when building one's own house in the countryside, the bricks and stones were brought by oneself, and if it was appropriate, it was often opened at the door of the house. The house was built, and there was a small pond in front of the house.

At this time, the brick factory shovels the soil, stirs the clay of the clay, and there is a special canal that leads to it, and the water can be released when needed, and there are dozens of brick-making masters who take the mold to make bricks one by one and hand them over to the side to pick up and stack them for drying, and there are dozens of people who are constantly carrying firewood and constantly piling up under the brick building.

"So many bricks, are they used up, sir, I mean there are so many people who buy them?" Wu Tingfang watched the whole scene. He looked at the brick buildings piled up high in the distance.

"Of course, it's all over, there are so many people in Handan. There are so many people in Zhao and so many people in Kyushu, we will expand the scale by a hundred times and a thousand times, as for whether to buy or not, our bricks are relatively cheap, the state officially procures, the needs of the ministers and nobles, and we use it ourselves, and the slightly richer businessmen can afford it. ”

"Now it's enough for them to afford it." Wang Li looked at the serious Ji Cainu who was staring at the whole scene, and continued: "We rely on all kinds of goods every day to collect the money of the entire Handan, especially the money of the rich. ”

"It's not like you will keep the money in the cellar and rot, it is better not to collect it than to collect it."

"We want to invest again, this brick yard is one of the inputs, in addition, the recent project in Handan has our new manor and Zhu Gongzi, as well as the memorial monument and the martyrs' cemetery."

"I also plan to build a song and dance theater, as well as improve the roads and water conservancy facilities in Handan, if the money is enough, to give back to the society, build nursing homes, orphanages, adopt those who are lonely, and cultivate those orphans who have lost their parents due to the war, they can create more value for us and the whole society when they grow up."

"With this kind of investment, a brickyard can feed hundreds of people, so that they can make more money than in the past, and it will still come to us when we turn around at the end of the year, and then open more factories and projects to feed more people."

"We spend our money, but we can make more money, and then invest in creating more value, feeding more people, and in the future, everyone who works for us will be far richer than in the past, more people will work for us, more people will be rich, and all the people in the whole society will be richer."

"When the money is earned, it will only rust and mold at home, but let it continue to circulate, make it operate rationally through various means, and create wealth endlessly, I think in the future in a few decades, the whole Handan people can live in brick houses."

"In the land of Kyushu, people are busy every day, and the value that is really created is not much, and everything is just because the value created has not been circulated."

"Maybe it will be consumed while creating, or the value created will be enough for oneself and buried in the cellars of the ministers and doctors, rotting and moldy, and it can't flow, so it can't be put into recreation, and it will be destroyed in some natural disasters and wars, which is not good."

"So, my tables, chairs, and all kinds of furniture and all kinds of luxuries are sold to the rich, and their money is taken out of the cellar so that it doesn't rot."

"The more people see us making money and creating immeasurable value, they will naturally join in, like us, so that the whole world can come alive, instead of living numbly day after day like in the past, maybe thousands of years later."

"This brick factory is just a microcosm of my planning industry, you look at them, are their faces numb? None of them are full of vigor, full of longing for the future, and yearning for happiness. ”

"And under this hope, they will create more attentively, and exert unprecedented strength, if the people of the entire Zhao Kingdom are like them, it only takes a few decades, and most of the world's benefits in Yanran's mouth can be realized."

Wang Li said with emotion, in the early 80s of the last century, the gap between China's vast rural areas and the rural areas of this era is not large, that is to say, in the feudal era of thousands of years, the development of the whole society has almost stopped in the same place in terms of a large unit, and the value created by modern society every day can exceed that of thousands of years in ancient times.

After Wang Li finished speaking with emotion, he summed up to Ji Yanran: "Yanran, the first lecture I gave in the last lecture was creation, and the second lecture in the future is value. ”

"Any creation has value, and the embodiment of value is money, coins, today I am talking about a simple and basic value operation of value, with value as a lever to mobilize the power of creation." (To be continued.) )
