Chapter 52: West Mountain

With Li Yong's five-year plan, Xishan is like having a direction, and is no longer a hammer in the east and a stick in the west as before, first of all, their shops are laid under the intelligence officers of the intelligence bureau, with Chang'an as the origin, extending to Luoyang and other big cities, Xishan's products have been opened in Chang'an, so they quickly gained a foothold in the local area, of course, the local families, the gentry industry also had a huge impact, and repeatedly attacked the shops and commodities in Xishan, but the actual results are very small, Why, because Xishan's products are self-produced, and they don't have a formula, there is no control from raw materials, plus they want to get the formula of Xishan products, but they don't even know where Xishan is, they don't know where their products come from, and they can't start if they want to be subordinates from within Xishan. Xishan's products are encroaching on all walks of life in Datang step by step.

"Everyone, I called you here today, mainly because of the impact of the Beauty Workshop, Juxian Building, and Treasure Store on our industry."

"Shopkeeper Cui, those people don't seem to be afraid of us at all, now everyone buys their goods, where are there still people who buy our goods, just today, I closed another store, you say, if it goes on like this, what should I do?"

"yes, if we continue like this, we're going to finish the game collectively."

"Everyone, I called you here today, in fact, the head of my family has spoken, this time I must take them down, I want to unite you to write a letter to the saint, isn't the saint the most afraid of such a thing today? And then the heads of our families will put pressure on the court together, and they will definitely be beaten to death, and when the time comes, won't their goods be handed over obediently? At our mercy? ”

The people of these families were seriously impacted by the products of Xishan, and began to plot how to rob them, these are their usual tricks, because they are sure that Li Shimin does not dare to turn his face with them, in the eyes of their century-old families and millennium families, there are only unchanged families, and the dynasty can be changed at will, which is also one of the reasons why the Tang Dynasty finally went to extinction. All kinds of people's clothing, food, housing and transportation are monopolized, and even the people are fooled in the culture, and the education is controlled to control the students who want to enter the court as officials, but how can Li Yong let them succeed, in the five-year plan, the first thing is to crack down on the business of these families, and then establish a university hall in Xishan, reserve all kinds of talents, so that the Tang Dynasty can slowly loosen its bonds, for the conspiracy and tricks of the family, the intelligence bureau in Xishan is not vegetarian, they help those weak families who are suppressed by the family, let them go to their side, Then divide the family from the inside, those who are not looked down upon by the descendants are co-opted by them one by one, many times, those families have not yet started to act, it has already ended, anyway, Xishan is pressing step by step, and those families are accumulating bigger plans and conspiracies to prepare to fight back.

"The princess and the county lord can explain to the slaves and maids, so that you can rest more and not mess around."

Although Li Yong removed the plaster, he could only stay in a wheelchair, occasionally landing on crutches to do some rehabilitation training, the so-called three hundred days of injured muscles and bones, if he was not young and often exercised on weekdays, on the medical level of this era, he was not dead and crippled every day like confinement for almost a month, Li Yong was supervised by Xiaoxue and Chunlan, and felt that his body was about to rust, Li Yong said that now he can do some exercises by himself, but they are both strongly opposed, Li Yong is very helpless to go wherever the two of them take turns to push him to go, now Li Yong goes to Xishan the most, as for the research institute and Xishan camp in the valley, he basically does not go, because the research institute he does not want the two girls to contact, there are too many secrets in it, as for Xue Rengui and others in the Xishan camp, he does not need to care about the recruitment and training of recruits, after this Turkic war, those who survived are the elite veterans, plus Li Yong not only paid a generous pension to the sacrificed soldiers and all the families of the Xishan army, Also give their families the priority of work and study, respectively in front of their homes nailed with the glorious family and the martyr's family two kinds of iron plates, in Xishan, as long as they see these family members, everyone will bend down to them fist salute to pay respect, Xishan is not big, but every household has a human touch, after hearing the Xishan army conscription, every family is actively signing up to send their children and relatives to the Xishan camp, but this time the Xishan camp is only to supplement more than 2,000 people, and the number of people who came to sign up reached nearly 10,000 people, Only after thousands of selections were left more than 2,000 people, and those who were not selected were extremely disappointed. The primary school of Xishan University Hall has been completed, and all the children of the school in Xishan have moved into the Xishan University Hall with a better environment, in addition to a few old masters of the original Xishan School, the Intelligence Bureau and the Xishan Chamber of Commerce have invited more than a dozen young poor students who have no hope of entering the court as officials to be masters, so Li Yong's primary school has just been satisfied, as for the middle school and the university department are still under construction, the enrollment of primary schools has already begun, and the school-age children have been sent by their parents and relatives at home. Because Xishan University Hall is a closed teaching, students are allowed to go home for two days a week, and the rest of the time is to eat and live in school, and the primary and secondary schools are tentatively free of charge for reading, so the parents are willing to let their children not know a single word like themselves, and they have signed up for their children, but this has made the admissions masters busy. Li Yong pushed a wheelchair down to Xishan University Hall in Xiaoxue, because today he was going to teach those new and old masters some explanations of new education, and do their ideological work for the primary school that was about to open.

"The new gentleman has been in our Xishan for some time, I welcome you to join, I don't know how our staff dormitory and teaching environment are?"

For the faculty dormitory of Xishan University Hall and the campus surrounded by verdant mountains and forests, the spacious and bright classrooms with transparent glass windows, and the clean and rich and delicious canteen, this Datang can't find a second such school, if you are not satisfied, that is, the salary they give is too high, which makes them have a lot of pressure.

"My lord, your environment here is the best I have ever seen, we are very satisfied, but there is one thing we have not dared to ask, I wonder if you can solve our doubts?"

"What's the matter, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Even we still recruit girls here, which has not happened since ancient times, and there is no precedent for women to be officials in the DPRK."

"Your question, in fact, you have not been in Xishan for a long time, and you will find that we are equal to men and women here, even if they work in the workshop, they do things with equal pay for equal work, and there are many female workers who do better than male workers, and get more wages than them, these you will slowly see in the future, there are not too many rules in Xishan, and there is what you said about being an official, then let's talk about what education is, a few old gentlemen have taught in the old school for a period of time before, and you have also read the textbooks I compiled, My education in Xishan is different from what you have received or seen before, my education method is to apply what I have learned, not to read for the sake of being an official, but to let the children know that reading is just to make themselves more aware of things, the textbooks of primary school will not be very complicated, the first and second grades are mainly based on the three-character scripture disciple rules, supplemented by some simple arithmetic, and the third grade to the sixth grade is to be literate and write some simple articles, of course, the articles they learn are not the kind of articles you usually have, but the articles they write from the heart, Popular is vernacular, as for these textbooks have been printed overtime, education has never been a thing to do only for the sake of teaching, but to teach and educate the combination, so that children know what to honor their parents, protect the family and defend the country and other good aspects of thinking, education is to teach according to aptitude, because everyone has different strengths and personalities, can not be generalized, to be patient to discover, from which to guide them. ”

Li Yong's new education method made those young masters who had just joined deeply pondered, they were originally depressed and unhappy children, and received old-fashioned education since childhood, but Li Yong's sentence was not to study for the sake of being an official, but only to understand the concept of reasoning deeply moved them, all the masters present bowed deeply to Li Yong to express respect, Li Yong and they briefly explained the education methods of his time, and finally left in their reluctant eyes, after leaving Xishan University, Li Yong came to the workshop area and watched the products produced by one workshop after another in the way of assembly operations.

"Remember, all products must ensure quality, this is our Xishan face, can not be ignored because of rushing orders, even if there is an inferior product sold to customers, it is not allowed, so you have to put good quality on this pass."

"Your Excellency, don't worry, we, the old men, will definitely guard the last gate for our Xishan, and will never allow an inferior product to go out from us."

Li Yong very patiently watched one workshop after another, including the production workshop and the workers' canteen, etc., and then listened to the person in charge explain the current situation and problems one by one, Li Yong also answered them one by one, and after finishing the workshop, he rushed to the farming area non-stop, Li Yong pointed to Xiaoxue and pointed to the endless green crops in front of him.

"Xiaoxue, you see, these are Champa rice, is a kind of grain that can be two kinds a year, although the taste is average, but the yield is extremely high, if it is in the southern Lingnan area, it can be three kinds a year, if we grow such food in the Tang Dynasty, it will not take a few years, there will be no more famine, in the future, we have a sea ship that can cross the ocean, will bring us back higher yield of grain seeds, when the time comes, you can imagine, the people will never be hungry again, the scene of a full warehouse of grain?"

Xiaoxue was also fascinated by this beautiful scene, didn't she abandon her when she was young because she had no food at home? This feeling of hunger was deeply rooted in her heart, or in the hearts of many people of that era, and those who had not experienced this feeling would never know the desperate pain of being hungry. Xishan is changing day by day, changing towards Li Yong's ideas, he and his people in Xishan don't want to be famous, just silently make their own contributions to this dynasty and this country, they are the night walkers of the dynasty, Li Yong is their leader, forging ahead and sacrificing themselves is the current spirit of Xishan, Xishan will always be the Xishan of Datang, and Datang does not know Xishan, this is Xishan.
