Chapter 159: Da Ming also has a tide of going south and north to work?
Huang Zicheng came out of Hongwumen lonely, bought a pound of wine on the street, and paced to Fang Xiaoru's house, the old servant glanced at him, but he didn't report it, so he let him in.
Fang Xiaoru changed into an official robe, cleaned up his face and hair, stood in front of the window, and looked at the direction of Miyagi stupidly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Hearing the movement, Fang Xiaoru thought it was an old servant and asked, "What time is it?" ”
Huang Zicheng didn't notice Fang Xiaoru's abnormality, but put the wine on the table, making a winter sound, which alarmed Fang Xiaoru, he turned around and saw that it was Huang Zicheng, and immediately frowned.
"Dr. Fang, Qi Tai was hired by the emperor, go to learn what is called a typewriter, I heard that what kind of technology, a cup of tea, about can type a thousand children and eight hundred words, you say, with this, what will so many scribes do in the future?"
"There is also that tractor to plow the field, I heard that Beijing has used it, and there are more than a dozen tractors in the emperor's mansion, which are specially used for the common people to plow the fields, and they can plow hundreds of acres a day......" Huang Zicheng was a little depressed, and shook his head, "No wonder ......"
He actually wanted to say, no wonder Emperor Jianwen would lose, they would lose, but this would definitely not be said at the moment, although he didn't say it, but Fang Xiaoru understood and looked at him in surprise, "Is this true?" ”
"I saw the typewriter with my own eyes, and at that time, a few people in the court who used to write neatly and quickly competed with the typewriter, and they were vulnerable. I heard that there will be a tractor to plough the field tomorrow, and it is Xia Yuanji who specially asked Ma Sanbao to get two of them, and they will be demonstrated in front of the treasure gate, if you don't believe it, you can see it with your own eyes. ”
Fang Xiaoru originally had a will to die, but at this time, Huang Zicheng aroused his curiosity.
Death, and there is no need to choose an auspicious day, if you can see how the tractor plows the land, you can see the typewriter, and see how much difference there is between the firearms of the Yan army and the firearms of the Jianwen court, in the future, under Jiuquan, he can also talk to Emperor Jianwen, they will not lose unjustly.
Xia Yuanji did not deliberately notify, but the next day, the people of Ying Tianfu heard that the imperial court was going to use a tractor to plough the land, at this time in September, the sky was high and refreshing, and a wasteland outside the treasure gate surrounded a circle of ordinary people, and people from near and far came to see the lively people layer upon layer, and the crowd was crowded.
Zhu Di also came, and Zhu Gaoxian led his students to also come, the so-called hearing is better than seeing.
The tractor was driven by the transport team of the Yan Army, who used to drive the tractor to deliver supplies to the Yan Army.
Now, the supplies are not in a hurry, he drives a single-cylinder tractor, the trailer behind it has been dismantled and replaced with a plowshare, Xia Yuanji and other people are almost there, and the tractor suddenly sounded with an order.
The people of Yingtianfu, who had never seen the world, were frightened, and then they saw that puffs of white smoke came out of the tractor's head, slowly moving, and behind it, the solid earth was turned over, revealing yellow soil and deep-rooted tree roots.
In order to ensure that the ground is ploughed, the speed of the tractor is indeed not fast, but it is still much faster and easier than that of the oxen.
And when a person sits on it, he only needs to grasp the direction, and he does not need to walk in a circle on two legs.
"Tsk, it's really fast, it's much faster than using cows."
"See, it's also deep, I heard that this depth can be adjusted."
"Beijing has been using this to cultivate the fields since last year, and they have planted two crops there."
"Huh? Two seasons, what to plant two seasons? ”
"Sweet potatoes, the yield per mu is much higher than the millet on our side, and the whole of Beijing is exempt from taxes this year."
"That's great!"
The common people began to discuss, some inquired about the tractor ploughing the field, and some inquired about how to plant sweet potatoes, and when they would get to the south to plant, and as soon as they heard about the situation in Beijing, everyone's mind became active.
Some people from Beijing talked about the popular honeycomb coal stove there, which did not need to burn firewood, and some people were very envious, talking about how much money they made to work there, and some of them had the courage to go there to work and earn money.
If Zhu Gaoxian knew about this, he would definitely think of the tide of migrant workers who went south and north in later generations.
Fang Xiaoru stood in a corner, looking at the crowd in front of him, it seemed that the fall of the Emperor of the City Break a few days ago had never happened, everyone had a smile on their faces, talking and laughing, and there were bursts of sadness in his heart, and the etiquette collapsed!
When he saw the tractor pulling the plowshare, and the long ridge of earth behind it, like a dragon on the ground, almost in the blink of an eye, the tractor turned in another direction, and the speed was surprisingly fast compared to the ox ploughing.
KitKat's lewd skills! I didn't expect the imperial court to actually implement kitsch lewd techniques, how did this world become like this!
Fang Xiaoru thought of the society he wanted to achieve, a perfect national system, all social operations are within the scope of etiquette, not exceeding the rules, there are nine gi outside Wangji, the size is set, and the distance between the adjacent Zhigi is five hundred li, and it is orderly.
Although the common people are ignorant but polite, they can be educated by hundreds of officials, the countryside is simple, and the road is not forgotten.
Therefore, during the reign of Emperor Jianwen, the Jingtian system was implemented.
Fang Xiaoru watched silently for a while, only to feel more and more full of despair about this society, he thought of Confucius, his lifelong ambitions also had nowhere to be displayed, they were all eliminated and abandoned by society, and their ideas of being good for this society and the country were not accepted.
"If that's the case, then let's go to Beiping to see, where are the bones, why bother?" Fang Xiaoru silently turned around and took steps towards the north, in the direction where Zhu Di's iron cavalry came.
He wanted to go to the place where Zhu Di raised his troops to see, what kind of scene was there there?
Zhu Gaochi's boat docked at the Qinhuai River wharf, it was the third brother who came to pick him up, his father didn't seem to send someone to come, Zhu Gaochi glanced behind Zhu Gaosui, pretended to be nothing, held the third brother's hand, walked across the board, and went ashore.
"Dad and Mom's health is okay?" Zhu Gaochi asked.
"Okay, it's all right!" Zhu Gaosui carefully supported Zhu Gaochi, the eldest brother seemed to have gained weight again, if it weren't for the two eunuchs on the side, the eldest brother would crush him.
There was a sensation nearby, and Zhu Gaochi was taken aback and asked, "Is something happening in the city?" Why is it so noisy? ”
Zhu Gaosui knew what the eldest brother actually wanted to ask, since he had decided to join forces with the eldest brother now, some things must be known to the eldest brother, "The matter of the tractor ploughing made by the fourth brother is being demonstrated outside the Jubao Gate, and almost all the people in the city have gone to see the excitement, and there are many people, so it will naturally be lively." ”
Zhu Gaochi was stunned for a moment, "Hasn't it already been demonstrated once outside Beijing?" ”
The fourth brother is too fond of showmanship!
The two brothers didn't speak, and when Zhang got off the boat and got on the sedan chair, Zhu Gaochi got on the horse with the help of the two eunuchs, and Zhu Gaosui and the eldest brother walked side by side.
