"Therefore, it is a great strategy for the emperor to send troops to attack Uszang, conquer Goryeo, and attack the Wa Kingdom." Liu Bowen said, "Only when the country's armed forces are strong, will overseas businessmen come to do business and learn." ”

After the baptism of the Renaissance on the minds of the people, some scholars of the Ming Dynasty have gradually realized the significance of the imperial court having a strong military force and the significance of foreign conquests.

Like those popular in the Renaissance, the ideas preached, everything has to serve the protagonist.

And the protagonist is the Ming Dynasty.

Among these, decisiveness is a very important characteristic.

"Breaking the Sky", "Son-in-law God of War", "Romance of the Dragon and Snake", ...... It has played an important role in transforming people's thinking. The Confucian etiquette of benevolence, which had imprisoned people's minds for thousands of years, was gradually replaced.

"There are so many overseas people in Ying Tianfu, it's really prosperous!" Liu Bowen sighed.

"Doing business with overseas people and listening to them speak 'bird language' is also a strange thing that I, Liu Bowen, have never encountered."

……

Lujia Village.

Two figures walked into the village.

What caught the eyes of the two was a brand-new Lujia Village.

Wide gravel roads connect the houses. The houses are basically three-story western-style buildings, and each has a small courtyard. The small western-style building is full of greenery, and the road is lined with flowers, and bees and butterflies are dancing among the flowers.

The houses have white walls and red tiles, which are very neat and beautiful.

The roads are exceptionally clean and tidy, and there is not a pile of cow and horse urine.

"Mr. Qin's secluded village is so rich, the villagers can afford to live in such a good house!?" Luo Guanzhong exclaimed, "Only those who are rich and noble can afford to live in such housing." ”

"The whole village is like this, it should be the only one in my Daming."

"You still don't know how poor and backward Lujia Village was three months ago." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "At that time, in Lujia Village, the people had no clothes, no food, and starved to death. ”

"The village is full of muddy roads, and when it rains, there are puddles everywhere, and there are animal feces and urine everywhere."

"Lujia Village is unable to communicate with the outside world because of its inconvenient transportation, and has been the poorest village in the area since the Qin Dynasty. From the Qin Dynasty to the present more than 1,000 years, no local county order has been able to change the poor face of Lujia Village. ”

"What is the reason why Lujia Village has become what it is now?" Luo Guanzhong asked.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't answer when he heard this.

Luo Guanzhong also immediately realized that his question was a bit redundant, who else could have changed Lujia Village? It must be that Mr. Qin.

Just like Wollongong described in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" he wrote, because of the existence of Zhuge Liang, the people near Wollongong have enough food and clothing, and the people can sing and live a leisurely life in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms.

A peerless talent, like a shining pearl, can dispel the infinite darkness around him.

Let the people around him be illuminated by his brilliance.

"And the villagers of Lujia Village still have leisure and leisure, planting flowers all over the village." Luo Guanzhong said, "The people now not only do not have to worry about food and clothing, but also enjoy life." ”

"The air is still filled with the refreshing smell of flowers, and there is a clear stream flowing through the village."

"In my Lao Luo's opinion, Lujia Village should be called Huaxi Village."

"That gentleman is really a genius!"

Do you need to say this? Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself, look at you who have never seen the world!

"The wall outside the house is too white, I've never seen it." Luo Guanzhongdao.

"We don't know about this, we haven't been here for a long time." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"It's a fairy-like village." Luo Guanzhong sighed.

"I've seen Village Chief Huang." As soon as I entered the village, I saw two villagers tinkering with a pile of white things and breaking them with hoes. Seeing the two of them coming, one of the villagers said.

"What do you do?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"Quicklime, that's what we use to build the lake wall." Villager Lu Dashan replied.

"I've seen lime, but how did you manage to make it so white?" Luo Guanzhong asked curiously.

"Mr. Qin said that the lime we burned in the past was too low because the temperature was too low, and there were a lot of debris in it, resulting in impure color. It must be fired at a high temperature of more than 1,000 degrees Celsius to obtain white quicklime. Lu Dashan said, "Therefore, we all fired it in the blast furnace in the village, and sure enough, the quicklime burned out was simply white and flawless." ”

As long as the temperature is a little higher?

The two glanced at each other: this technology can be used outside again.

It's just this little bit of information that the villagers inadvertently revealed to them, and if they get it outside, they can make millions or tens of millions of taels of silver. At present, the color of lime on the market in Daming is generally dark, if they can produce white quicklime, they will definitely occupy the building materials market immediately.

Mr. Qin, he is really a god! Luo Guan sighed in the center.

"Lao Luo, hurry up and write it down." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Yes, yes." Luo Guanzhongdao.

"This brother, your hair, and the ...... you are wearing" Zhu Yuanzhang also found that the villagers had all cut their hair short and turned into inch heads, and their clothes and pants had also become short-sleeved shirts and slacks.

"These are all taught by Mr. Qin." Villager Lu Dashan Road.

"How can your hair be cut so short?" Luo Guanzhong kept shaking his head, "You must know that the parents of the body should not be easily damaged." ’”

"You look like you're very knowledgeable, why don't you make sense at all?" Lu Dashan said disdainfully, "We, the ordinary people, rely on farming to make a living. If you have long hair and wear a long shirt, how can you still do farm work? ”

"If you neglect your farm work a little bit, you can starve to death. Unlike you scholars, who have all kinds of preferential treatment given to you by the imperial court, of course you don't know the suffering of the people. ”

"If you go down a little bit into the fields and look at the people, you will know that it is very common for them to secretly cut their hair short and wear convenient clothes to facilitate their work."

"That's it for them who read." The villager next to him said, "The article is written about the peace, and I refuse to look down at the common people." ”

yy

"Alas! I'm afraid that only a scholar like Mr. Qin will really think about our people, and Mr. Qin is the real self-cultivation and family governance of the country and the world. They are all readers, why is the gap so big. ”

Besides, the gentleman also said that those scholars who are full of benevolence and morality still cut their hair behind their backs. Otherwise, if you don't cut it since you were a child, your hair will be dragged to the ground. Those who secretly cut their hair should ask others to 'not destroy their bodies easily.' It's really a bitch, and you have to set up a torii for yourself. ”

When Luo Guanzhong heard this, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
