Chapter 740: Giving Meaning to Productivity

Li Tai said worriedly: "There are so many battles between the DPRK and China, your father was born in a family of craftsmen, and he has always been resigned to it in the DPRK, how long can such a figure stand." ”

Princess Wei is usually a quiet person, listening to King Wei's words, she said in a low voice: "My father has always been like this. ”

"Well, now it seems that there is nothing to do, but now it is different, what is the point of the battle between Xu Jingzong and the eldest grandson Wuji, not to mention that there are more and more young people in the court, how to survive under such a fight?"

These craftsmen were drunk in the face of such wine and meat.

Three hours later, Li Tai's guards also sent the families of these craftsmen, not so much to bring them, but to put it more appropriately in the current situation, it should be kidnapped.

"His Royal Highness King Wei, this is the relationship we have found."

Li Tai looked at the roll of paper in his hand, which was written on which these craftsmen owed their debts, whose favors they owed, and who else had intersections.

Knowing this, I also know what to do.

When these craftsmen woke up from their drunken dreams, they saw their own family members and looked at King Wei in disbelief.

At this moment, Li Tai was sitting in a rocking chair, holding the paper in his hand and reading their relationship sentence by sentence, and even who raised a woman in the outer room was clear.

It's embarrassing and overwhelming.

"Everyone has their own difficulties, and we in Lishan will never be strong." Li Tai said this.

In response was the silence of these artisans.

Li Tai said again: "Lishan can help you settle these difficulties, and can also help you get rid of all kinds of idle things, and Lishan can give you several times higher remuneration than before, so are you willing to stay in Lishan?" ”

Seeing that everyone didn't say anything, Li Tai continued: "By the way, you have been out to buy wood and stone, and you have gained a lot of benefits from it, and I don't know how the people of Yushitai will do if they know these things?" ”

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

The craftsmen and their entourage, relying on the silver money given by the court, where is enough to live in Chang'an City, they can only rely on the convenience to seek more benefits in Chang'an City, and the extra silver money is enough to support their families.

Just by buying wood, they can get one to two percent of the benefits from it.

These are all tacit rules, everyone knows it, everyone understands it, not to mention the craftsmen, the palace people who buy cloth to eat in the palace can get more benefits.

If this incident really stabbed the Yushitai, these people are afraid that they will not be able to make a living as a craftsman in this life.

The most important thing for a craftsman is reputation and craftsmanship.

First solve their problems, promise many placements and benefits, and then talk about their current situation and their shortcomings as a threat.

Under this combination of grace and power, these craftsmen could only obey, and the six of them stood up together and saluted: "I am willing to be driven by His Royal Highness the King of Wei." ”

Li Tai smiled: "You contribute to Lishan, not for this king." ”

"We are willing to contribute to Lishan."

They repeated the words, and Li Tai was satisfied.

Li Tai felt a little sorry for Yan Liben's conscience, and asked his guards to send him a few jars of good wine, which was not only his kindness as a family of two families, but also wanted to make some compensation for Yan Liben's conscience.

The site for the construction of Lishan Technical College has been selected, and a good day has been selected to prepare for the start of construction, and everything is ready.

Production is inseparable from construction, and what is in front of Li Tai and Lishan is a huge problem, and technology needs to continue to move forward, the more it needs to brainstorm.

It's just that a few people can't go far by relying on Lishan, and it takes time to train a sufficiently high-level technical manpower.

The cost of developing talent is high, especially the cost of time.

Li Tai felt that he was aware of these problems, and his brother-in-law must have realized it too.

On Lishan, Zhang Yang is making a bicycle for his daughter, and installing training wheels on both sides of the rear wheel.

In her spare time, she can help her daughter repair toys and build some new toys.

Xiao Wu handed over the wrench, "Master, why don't you let the blacksmith make these?" ”

Zhang Yang twisted it with a wrench and explained: "Because the blacksmith workshop has to make more important things, our Lishan productivity is not enough, and I have to do many things myself, so I can't use their production capacity." ”

Glancing at Xiao Wu, who was puzzled, Zhang Yang said again: "The production of Lishan is all for the construction of people's livelihood, if the whole village is made for these toys I need, wouldn't it be bad to break the original intention, which is contrary to the purpose of our Lishan." ”

At the age of fifteen, it is the time to understand the way of this world, and it is good to be able to change her mind by teaching in a few words and persuading her again and again.

It is the most critical age for the formation of his own subjective consciousness, and Zhang Yang is willing to teach his daughter-in-law's disciples more.

At this best age, they still have a lot to learn, especially the Si Pin class.

This is the most important thing that cannot be left behind, and the most important thing is that in this feudal era, they have a clear and unswerving correct direction, which is crucial.

Zhang Yang turned the whole bicycle over, the tricycle with wooden wheels could not run far, it was not fast, it was very difficult to ride, and it was best to use it to kill his daughter's energy.

The pedals were on the front wheels, and the earliest bicycles were made of wooden wheels, and there was no such elaborate equipment in those days.

Zhang Yang continued to preach to Xiao Wu while loading wheels and keeping his hands: "Our family is the main family of Lishan, and it stands to reason that the whole village is our food household, so they should do things for us, not for themselves, right?" ”

Xiao Wu nodded, "It stands to reason that it should be like this." ”

Zhang Yang shook his head and said: "Actually, this kind of thinking is not right, the villagers of Lishan are all independent individuals, they will have their own ideas, and they will make their own decisions, when they took over Lishan, Lishan was very poor, not to mention food, even if I and your teacher take more, there will be many people who will be hungry." ”

"So at that time, I thought about common prosperity, and regarded them as a collective, and it would be much easier to think from a collective point of view, you see that there are so many eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, where are the days in the palace? Because the emperor deprived them of productivity. ”

"As a result, His Majesty's life is becoming more and more impoverished, and the life in the palace is becoming more and more poor."

Thinking that the life in the palace now often depends on King Wei to help, Xiao Wu covered his mouth and laughed softly.

Zhang Yang also said: "Only by empowering the collective with productivity can the collective grow stronger and more united." ”

"Well, Master also went to plough the fields himself."

"Therefore, the power of the individual is small, the power of the collective is huge, treat the villagers as friends, as close neighbors, often go into the masses, see what the masses need, look at the living conditions of the masses, if you have more power, help the masses solve problems, this is the long-term solution."

As he spoke, Zhang Yang felt that it was a little inappropriate for him to talk to Xiao Wu about these words, so he smiled with emotion, picked up his teacup and took a sip of water.

Xiao Wu helped sort out the master's tools, and his mind was a little clearer, and this conversation was very rewarding.

The bicycle was a little rudimentary, and Zhang Yang put it in front of his daughter, "You try." ”

Xiao Qingqing put down the building blocks in his hand and looked at the bicycle, "Daddy, how do you play this?" ”

Zhang Yang picked her up, put her on the bicycle, and put her feet on the pedals, "You can just pedal it." ”

As soon as Xiao Qingqing stepped on the pedal, the wheels spun and moved slowly, and the faster she pedaled, the faster the bicycle went.

It was shaky at the beginning, but it slowly became smoother.

Looking at her daughter's smile, Li Yue also smiled contentedly, in fact, she was tired of playing with the toys at home, and she was too spoiled on weekdays, there were no novel toys, she liked to ride the bear around the village all day long.

Now that she has a new toy, it gives her a new sense of fun.

Li Shimin has been in Lishan twice a day recently, Lishan is very luxurious, it should be said that the whole Lishan is very rich, whether it is Zhang Yang's family, or the villagers of Lishan are three meals a day in the morning, noon and evening.

As for which meal is served in the morning, noon and evening, it depends on the mood of the emperor, when to come to Lishan for dinner, and when to come here to eat.

After paying so much silver, the emperor didn't want to go back to the palace, and it was clear that it was time for a big court meeting, but he was dragged by His Majesty from the beginning of the sting to the spring equinox.

Li Shimin is still very diligent on weekdays, why did he stay in Lishan, from the aspect of filial piety, it is to take care of the elderly emperor, and from the perspective of interests, it is to eat more than one meal in Lishan, this kid earns so much, who does not eat his family?

Two days ago, Lishan sold a batch of chairs, which were all old chairs that had been replaced after having more comfortable chairs to sit on.

In this way, the useless old chairs were sold, a total of 3,000 short old chairs, which were originally the inventory in the village, or they could only be used as firewood, and Lishan recorded another 200 yuan.

Every time he knows that this kid makes money so easily, Lishan is so rich, thinking of this, Li Shimin feels that God is blind and intolerable.

There are even Tubo people who send Lishan beef, and there are monks Xuanzang who write letters to Lishan, and even the little Turkic khan......

Lishan bought wool, and the Turks even gave sheep.

This little Turkic khan did everything to curry favor with Lishan.

Li Shimin stroked his forehead in distress, what's wrong with this world?

Looking at the car that the granddaughter is riding in front of me, she only needs to pedal to make the car move, which is really good.

didn't wait for the granddaughter to have a good time, Li Shimin grabbed the car with one hand, and after looking at it for a long time, he wanted to sit on it and ride it, but found that he was too big to sit on, so he gave it back to her.

Li Shimin sat down again and pondered, and said to the prince on the side: "Bring the drawings of this object and let the Ministry of Industry make it the same." ”

"Whoa."

Wang Gonggong nodded, and then walked into the workshop in Lishan.

On weekdays, this workshop is not locked, and I rummaged through the drawings and found the one that looked the same as the little county lord and picked it up.

"County marquis, Your Majesty said that the Ministry of Industry should also build some."

Zhang Yang drank tea and explained: "This bicycle is for children, if Your Majesty wants to use it, I can change it slightly, it is not perfect enough." ”

The prince turned his head to look at the emperor who was seated, and whispered: "Your Majesty's meaning is to want the same." ”

Zhang Yang nodded clearly, "It's okay, take it." ”

Having said that there are a lot of imperfections in this bike, and more importantly, the material of the tires is a headache.

Now that Li Shimin has taken away the drawings and built thousands of bicycles in the DPRK, if there is a better one in Lishan in the future, don't say anything about it.

Zhang Yang rested for a while, and his aunt sent the file of Taifu Temple.

Putting these files on the table, Zhang Yang sat on the edge of Huaqing Pond and looked at it again, and the cultivation of the fields was progressing very well.

Gaochang grape seedlings will be sent in a few days, and grapes are a crop that needs a lot of light.

Li Shimin had been observing Zhang Yang's movements, and saw that this kid hurriedly walked into his study again, took out a few books and sat down again.

couldn't hold back his curiosity, so Li Shimin also walked up to take a look.

Zhang Yang said in a low voice: "Where there is enough light, reading books is the best, and it is more comfortable for the eyes, and I prefer to read outside during the day." ”

"Well, I've been watching the music in the Ganlu Hall for a long time, and my eyes will be very tired."

"Your Majesty should also take care of your eyes."

Zhang Yang drank tea and said in a low voice.

Li Shimin also picked up a dossier and looked at it, and first confirmed that there were no disloyal and unfilial remarks or conspiracy to rebel in this dossier.

"It's all crop records?"

Zhang Yang held a scroll in his hand, and he had to check the scroll on the table.

Li Shimin asked again: "There are still a lot of crops outside the customs?" ”

"Well, the variety of vegetables in Guanzhong should be diversified, and this year is a very critical year for Taifu Temple."

"Do you want me to arrange a few more people for you?"

Zhang Yang shook his head and said: "It's enough to see two people now, and three or four more people are fine, but this year, Shangguan Yi went out to recruit a few old farmers, who can help Taifu Temple do things." ”

Li Shimin pondered for a moment, and then said: "If you go out to inquire about the land, there will always be a few more officers and soldiers by your side. ”

Zhang Yang still shook his head and continued: "Your Majesty, it is often said that to do things for the community, you must go deep into the masses, and the masses are the foundation of the society, this is true. ”

"Well, Xunzi has a saying that water can carry a boat and can also capsize a boat, and that's the truth."

On this day, the Khan had been fighting horses for more than ten years, and he was also a cultural person, so it was not difficult to communicate.

Zhang Yang continued: "In this way, we have to go deep among the masses, and if we go out to do errands, there are always a few fierce officers and soldiers around us, how can we talk to the peasant households cordially, and how can we really understand their living needs. ”

Li Shimin was puzzled: "I often look at the villagers of Lishan, this Lishan has many controls, many rules, but there are few laissez-faire, when to work, when to rest, there are rules, I think you do a lot of things to do Legalism, you should be a person who is biased towards Legalism, and now I say that the words of the masses, the so-called water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn a boat, which comes from the royal system of Xunzi, which is a Confucian doctrine. ”

"Isn't what you do contradict what you say?"

Zhang Yang shook his head and said: "This is not a contradiction, the two schools of Confucianism and Law have been arguing for a long time, and there are few people who can explain the truth of the world clearly." ”

"Your idea is interesting, I'll think about it."
