Chapter Eighty-Four: The Rumors of the Northern Tour

He Xi thought about it carefully, and it was also reasonable.

The world needs too many mathematical talents. Nowadays, there is a systematic training of arithmetic talents in the whole country. There are only Guozijian and Engineering Academy. Guozijian was added by He Xi at the beginning. And the College of Engineering and Science, what kind of science do people who don't understand mathematics?

He Xi was both happy and helpless at this news.

Happily, the Qingzhang world will definitely leave a strong mark in history. And the fact that the two schools can participate in it is also an important qualification. In the future, the Guozijian system will have a greater influence in the Ming Dynasty. In the future, it can really be done, and all the officials come from the school. Then he, the leader of the Guozijian faction, has much more power.

There is also the Faculty of Engineering and Science. Before that, many people saw it as a school of craftsmen, which was not the right way at all. And the engineering and science school, to participate in such a national event, although the status in the hearts of the people is not as good as the Guozijian, but it will not be regarded as a crooked and evil way.

This is a major benefit for He Xi.

Chinese are the most realistic people. To the gods and Buddhas, they are all gods and Buddhas, and what benefits do they give. will be convinced, and the same is true for learning. The people don't have as many twists and turns as the official. For the common people, it is useless to be useful. It is the highest standard for measuring knowledge.

Useful or not, one refers to whether there is actual skills. The common people are very interested in a skill. The so-called family has a daughter, it is better to have a skill. Now, within a few years, the Institute of Engineering and Science has made a name for itself around Nanjing, and this time Qingzhang will let the School of Engineering and Science spread its reputation all over the world.

The second is whether you can be an official.

After all, for ordinary people, being an official is the biggest benefit. Now the Institute of Engineering and Science is doing things for the imperial court, and after it is really completed, there are few people who will give them official status, or simply transfer to the yamen. After all, now and early tomorrow is not the only one of the scholars. There are officials of all kinds of backgrounds.

Although it is said that good technical personnel will be cultivated and sent to become officials. It's a serious waste of talent. After all, there is a big gap in Daming's technical talents. But it has to be admitted. This is too in line with the concept of Chinese learning and excellence, and after conforming to this concept, it is sought after by a large number of people.

The future is limitless.

But the biggest problem for He Xi is that his endless talent pool has been cut off.

He Xi said: "What plan have you prepared?" ”

He Xi knew that Huang Zicheng would definitely not be the kind of person who only asked questions. There must be a solution in place, or a place that needs to be supported by Ho Xi.

Huang Zicheng said: "Now there is only one way. But it is up to the teacher to decide? ”

He Xi said: "What is it? ”

Huang Zicheng said: "I have researched, many of these people from Goryeo can be used, and most of the Goryeo people do not understand Chinese, but only those people know Goryeo and Chinese. ”

He Xi said: "Do you know what you're talking about? ”

Huang Zicheng said: "I know. ”

He Xi knew who Huang Zicheng was talking about. It is the son of a wealthy family who moved from Goryeo. I have to admit that although the high-ranking families have such and such problems, the education they have received since childhood has made them higher in quality than ordinary people.

If nothing happens, these people will be high-ranking officials and ministers of Goryeo or Chaoxian in the future. But now they have become emigrants, and there are many people who have a blood feud with the Ming Dynasty, if there is no Ming Dynasty, they and their family will never become like this.

Now these people are enabled. It's risky.

Big risk.

But, same issue. Also in front of us, most of the Korean people do not understand Chinese, and the migration of so many people is definitely not enough for translation. And these children of the family are naturally the best translators. This is the reason why many families have repeatedly perished.

In this era, there are only a few readers.

He Xi was silent for a moment and said, "As long as you are sure that nothing will happen, just do it." Always give a way. Otherwise, it will be even more harmful for these people to sink into their subordinates. ”

Huang Zicheng said: "What the adults said is extremely true. In fact, I have talked to some of them, and I found that not all of them are benefiting from the Goryeo royal family, and not everyone in the family can benefit from the family. Now that they are separated from the family, they are self-reliant, and as long as there is a way out, they will not mess around. Of course, there is a group of people I have stared at to death, and I have decided to let him go to Fushun to dig coal. ”

He Xi was stunned and looked at Huang Zicheng.

The moral gentleman in history is probably gone. Now Huang Zicheng is discussing the officials who are skilled in human feelings. Many times, there is naturally softness, but when it is time to do thunder methods, it will not be soft.

Digging coal is hard. It's also dangerous.

Fushun is actually okay. Fushun Coal Mine is open-pit now. The open-pit coal mine in Fushun in later generations was excavated after digging dozens of meters of soil. All open-pit coal mines today will be nothing more than a seedbed in later generations. It's just that the amount of coal mining in later generations is far from comparable to this era. Before large-scale mechanical mining, even if it took decades or hundreds of years, it may not be as good as digging for a year in later generations.

So it has not yet reached the point where it is necessary to dig wells.

Of course, He Xi's guarantee for the coal mine is still possible.

Coupled with the fact that there are few casualties due to open-pit mining. But what is the son of the great family of Goryeo? I don't dare to say that the five bodies are not diligent, but I definitely can't bear the heavy physical labor in the coal mine. It is quite possible to die under the coal mine.

Now, even if he doesn't die, in Huang Zicheng's tone, He Xi also smells the smell of entering another volume. No matter how talented they are, and how beautiful they are in the original history, it is estimated that they will have to dig coal for the rest of their lives.

He Xi was very satisfied with Huang Zicheng's methods.

It is not in favor of this method of dealing with affairs, but in favor of people.

Huang Zicheng was educated by Orthodox Confucianism. In his heart, the idea of benevolence and love for others is very heavy, and he can't say that it is not good. But sometimes you can't be too pedantic, otherwise it's rotten. Therefore, Huang Zicheng really figured it out when he did such a thing. It's just that the little benevolence is the thief of the great benevolence.

If Lan Yu did such a thing, He Xi would have frowned.

Lan Yu grew up on the battlefield since she was a child, and she has seen a lot of cruel people and things. It's too much time to not take human life seriously. If Lan Yu asked He Xi to give an opinion. He Xi definitely asked Lan Yu to read more Confucian books. Dissolve the murderous aura on Lan Yu's body. I also understand what rules are. Maybe it will end well in the future.

He Xi said: "Is there enough food? ”

Huang Zicheng said: "Enough." Every year, the imperial court transported more than one million stone of grain to Liaodong by sea. And this time, there were more than 10,000 war horses, which were sold to Liaodong by sea. Once the path is cleared. In addition to wood and medicinal materials, there is another important commodity in Liaodong. The southern merchants will only bring more grain. There will be no less. ”

He Xi has long stipulated that when he comes to Liaodong to buy things, he can only transport grain, even if it is not all grain, most of it must be grain, otherwise it cannot be traded.

These grains are He Xi's biggest bargaining chips in Liaodong.

He Xi said: "Last year's harvest was not good, how about this year's spring ploughing?" ”

Last year, because of the war, almost all the men went to the front, and the cultivation was done by women, children, and the elderly. Natural food production decreases. Regardless of the amount of foreign food, the indigenous hematopoietic function is the most important.

Huang Zicheng said: "There is no problem with spring plowing this year. Moreover, all the people who have moved here are cultivating the land, and I guarantee that in three years, the acres of land in Liaodong will more than triple. Liaodong will definitely become the granary of the north. ”

He Xi sighed and said, "It's good to really see that day." ”

He Xi took out a drawing, which was the map of the Liao River, but there were dozens of canals in different directions, which were not available in Liaodong today. This is the plan that He Xi came up with by finding a lot of water conservancy experts and combining it with the situation on the ground.

Dig out the river in the middle of the Liaoze. Let the water of Liaoze, which was originally a few feet of water on flat land, gather in the river and become a tributary of the Liao River. Drain these swamps first. As long as the water can be drained, the next thing will be easy.

It's just that He Xi didn't know that this plan would take a few years.

"Teacher, there's a little news, I don't know if you know." Huang Zicheng hesitated and said.

"What's the news?" He Xi asked.

Huang Zicheng said: "Your Majesty intends to tour the north, and will come to Liaodong. ”

"What?" He Xi was taken aback and said, "Why don't I know? ”

Huang Zicheng said: "This is just a rumor, it is not guaranteed to be true, anyway, the wind is blowing everywhere." ”

He Xi knows that sometimes gossip is more accurate than official news. It seems that he is going to inquire about it too.
