The preface to the "Theory of Production" written by Wang Hongyu should be understood by the peasants, industrialists, and soldiers.

And the first level must be understood by Zhu Youxiao and Wei Zhongxian.

The preface to the "Theory of Production" to be published this time actually expounds the inevitable trend of the development of the productive forces and sets off a wave of progress in the productive forces and science and technology.

The "Theory of Production" was written in the everyday language of ordinary people, so that the number of people who could understand it greatly increased, and the pace of replacing classical Chinese with vernacular language was also accelerated.

One move by Wang Hongyu will play a dual role, and this is a revolution of historical and practical significance.

Of course, there will be strong opposition from conservative literati and bureaucrats.

will even collectively send a letter to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, demanding that Wang Hongyu, the initiator, be severely punished.

However, the beneficiaries are the majority of the people after all, and with the continuous advent of Wang Hongyu's vernacular, vernacular will gradually replace classical Chinese, and finally classical Chinese can only become a literary subject for the study of history and archaeology.

In his letter to Tianqi and Wei Zhongxian, Wang Hongyu made clear the advantages of the vernacular text of "Theory of Production" and prepared them to accept the attack of the literati, especially the Donglin Party.

However, this kind of vernacular writing is just right for people like Wei Zhongxian who are new to understanding literature and ink

Tens of thousands of people who first understood literature and ink gradually had the right to speak, and the entire Ming Dynasty peasants, industry, merchants, and soldiers set off an upsurge of learning culture and technology through newspapers and periodicals, impurities, and popular science pamphlets.

Therefore, it is written in the form of daily language, that is, vernacular, as long as you know a small number of words, you can think out the meaning, combined with a few sentences before and after, you can recognize the words you don't know, and the next time you encounter this word, you will remember that sentence, and this word can be learned without being taught by others.

He is also very bored with it, and he writes calligraphy vertically from right to left and vertically, which is indeed a little difficult to read.

The popularization of simplified Chinese characters is gradually on the agenda.

Wang Hongyu has listed a comparison table between most capital characters and simplified characters, but his writing level is really limited, whether it is capital or simplified characters, it is an intermediate level.

He wants to collect information and talents, which is estimated to be difficult in the short term. I don't know how Nurhachi invented the Jurchen script, there must definitely be a team, no matter how smart he is, he can't do it alone.

This requires a good foundation now.

Economic, political, military, cultural, none of which can be inferior.

At present, there are 3,000 people in the Hunhe Army and 3,000 people in the construction army, the total number is actually not much, and the biggest bottleneck is food.

To put it more broadly, it is still the economy that limits the number of soldiers and horses.

Of course, Wang Hongyu wants to speed up his development, in addition to relying on supplies from Xiangyang and other places, purchasing from the market, and using sweet potatoes as a supplement in the future, he must also have more ways to get grain, so as to support his mining, handicraft investment, survival and development.

Nanyang rice is unsalable, and the transportation capacity at this time is not enough to transport it too far, but Wang Hongyu can develop in the past~

After Yunnan, Guichuan is completed, it will be a big port in Guangxi and Hainan.

That's his next strategic goal.

Before the sweet potatoes are in place, although there is no way to recruit more tun people, the number and types of workshops cannot be too large at once, but there are a few key points to do first.

There are clocks, coal, construction teams and information stations in the capital.

Baoding has laid out bookstores and cultural industries.

Kaifeng is a sauce industry that grows herbs and garlic, as well as sesame and garlic.

Information stations and shops for procurement and distribution have been set up in various parts of Xiangyang.

Yunyang has the best industrial and mining resources, and there are 3,000 military tuns to build, and at present, it directly mines stone coal, iron ore and turquoise, etc., and initially opens a smelting workshop. It also specializes in waterway-based transportation.

These are outside of Yun County, which has a population of more than 30,000 people, and more industries that meet local resources are needed.

Bamboo and timber, these are just raw materials, they don't make much money, and they also account for part of the transportation capacity of the river and the Han River.

From the perspective of engaging in industry, we can use cheap local raw materials.

From a logistical point of view, reduce bamboo and wood

Direct outbound shipping frees up vessel capacity for higher-value products.

The furniture factory is about to come out~

The high-quality bamboo and wood in Yunyang are directly processed into furniture in Yunxian County, and they are transported to Xiangyang and Wuchang to make money, and can be sold to Henan, Hunan, and even sold downstream to Jiangnan to make a lot of money.

You don't have to accumulate furniture slowly, and you can also directly cooperate with large local households with certain properties.

Tie them all to your chariot.

Wang Hongyu took Wang Zheng, Li Tiezhu, and Zhou Zhaoan to convene 18 wealthy households in Yunxian County to gather for discussion.

These 18 households are the most resourceful people in Yunyang for more than 100 years.

The largest household has 800 acres of land, and the surrounding families have a total of nearly 1,000 acres. Those who engage in mountains and forests are also at most 1,000 acres. This kind of volume is just ordinary landlords in other places, but in Yunyang this is the largest.

There are also those who have been doing business for a long time, some have been selling bamboo and wood for a long time, some have bought grain from outside for a long time and sold it to various counties, and some have been mining turquoise for a long time.

There are also a few families with hundreds of acres of land, which can just afford the children of the family to study for a long time. Some of the clans have people who are outside the country, and some of them are officials in their own or nearby areas.

There are 18 really rich people in total.

Wang Hongyu has been here for more than a month, and he has always been more polite to them.

At this time, as soon as they said that there was business, they also trusted Wang Hongyu, so they came to negotiate together.

Wang Hongyu summoned them to sit in the courtyard next to the bookstore, instead of a closed room, which was specially designed to create a more relaxed and bright communication atmosphere.

"I believe everyone knows that Yunyang is rich in products, but good development is not valuable, and valuable development is not good. So we are gathered here today to take advantage of the good opportunity of human, material and financial resources to talk about doing business together."

Wang Hongyu got straight to the point and called everyone by name.

Since it's about making money, it's definitely a good thing, but it's not that easy to do.

Wang Hongyu also stated the difficulties, using more than a month of personal experience as an example to explain the objective difficulties of insufficient food, limited manpower, and inconvenient transportation.

Then state his plans in terms of water transportation and land transportation, to make Yunyang's transportation more convenient and larger.

Listening to these initiatives, one of the people sitting in the front row was a little excited.

Wang Hongyu motioned to him, but it was okay to speak.

The man stood up, and saw that he was quite tall, his arms were scarred, his hands were full of calluses, and although his clothes were silk but somewhat ill-fitting, although he was a middle-aged man, he knew at a glance that he had worked by himself.

No one in Yunyang didn't know about him.

Yunxian Yang Yuanwai.

It is Yunyang's best bamboo business, and the younger generations in the family can go to Yunshan Academy to study, and some people become warehousemen in Yunxi.

If there is General Wang's support, it may be possible to go to the next level in the future.

Therefore, it is time to give Wang Hongyu a platform.
