Chapter 119

In Sun Yuanhua's eyes, Jinzhou Academy is surprisingly big. At that time, Chen Guodong's purpose was not to protect books and knowledge, but because Lin Xuzong told Chen Guodong that the most valuable thing in Laiyang Zhang's family was not these floating wealth, fields, and shops, but the Tibetan Academy.

Chen Guodong didn't even have time to take a look, and waved his hand: "Move away!" ”

In this way, Laiyang Zhang's collection of more than 300,000 books, as well as a considerable number of solitary books, and even bamboo slips were moved to Ninghai City, and later to southern Liaoning.

At present, more than ninety percent of the books in the library of Jinzhou Academy are private collections of major wealthy families and landlords, with a total number of more than 800,000 volumes, and a small number of them are printed by themselves. Thanks to the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty script industry, there are also many large and small printing houses.

Under the guidance of Mr. Lin Xuzong, Zhang Changqing, the person in charge of Laiyang Zhang's book printing, and more than 60 outstanding craftsmen, established the Jinzhou Printing Factory.

With the influx of a large number of displaced people, a large number of technical talents also came with the army of displaced people, and the Jinzhou printing house also expanded rapidly, and now the textbooks of Jinzhou Academy and Liaoning South Girls' School are printed by Cheng Shijie's own printing house, Sun Yuanhua looked at the huge library that covers an area of four small courtyards and can accommodate more than 600 people to study at the same time, and was dumbfounded.

Looking at the canteen that can accommodate more than 1,000 students at the same time, the public bathhouse that can provide hot water for children, and especially the well-equipped stadium, Sun Yuanhua feels that Cheng Shijie's intentions for Jinzhou Academy may not be simple.

Sun Yuanhua is in the crowd of teachers, Cheng Shijie is preparing for the start of school, and is also recruiting various teachers, including arithmeticians, agronomists, geologists, astronomers, potters, mechanics, porcelain artists, weavers, and printing and dyeing artists......

If an academy teaches so much messy knowledge, it will definitely be sprayed useless, but in Sun Yuanhua's eyes, this is the initiative to lean towards the West French Party.

Sun Yuanhua looked at Cheng Shijie and said, "Shijie, you haven't picked up the word yet, have you?" ”

"People who are floating in troubled times, there is a name that is already the mark of the ancestors, where is there any expression?"

Cheng Shijie knew that Song Xiance had words, and his words were literature.

Li Fang, in fact, also has words, and his character is Yanzhi.

Shen Mingyu, there was no word originally, and later Song Xiance gave him a word, Gongchen, which means Gongxingchen, and Xingchen is Ziwei Emperor Xingxing, simply put, he is the emperor who is guarding the emperor. As for which emperor, it is not known.

Sun Yuanhua said: "Shijie, if you don't think you are arrogant, Sun is willing to give Shijie an alias." ”

Words are not just something that can be taken for others, and those who can take words are the power of teachers or elders. Sun Yuanhua naturally has this identity to give Cheng Shijie a word, and it is also a test for Cheng Shijie, if Cheng Shijie is willing to accept his word, in this way, Cheng Shijie is his doorman, forever the doorman, unless, he is unwilling to call that word again.

Cheng Shijie smiled: "Futai University is talented and talented, let's hear it!" ”

Sun Yuanhua said with a serious face: "Shijie will win the battle, and it will be relied on by tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in southern Liaoning, so it is better to call it Beiping!" ”

"Beiping?"

Cheng Shijie groaned: "Cheng Shijie, Cheng Beiping? ”

Cheng Shijie was also thinking to himself, wouldn't Lao Tzu's room be called "Beiping Hall" in the future, although he was unhappy, he still said seriously: "Thank you Sun Futai for giving the number."

Sun Yuanhua shook his head: "Shijie is too outward. ”

Sun Yuanhua followed Cheng Shijie, the main master, and began to inspect this academy, of course, everyone's observation focus is different, Sun Yuanhua saw this Jinzhou Academy, the wall is high, the fence is tight, three steps, one sentry, five steps and one post, a kind of military unique strong and bold atmosphere is coming.

This is Cheng Shijie's elite soldier.

Sun Yuanhua is the governor of the Zhibing, whether an army can fight or not, whether the combat effectiveness is strong or not, he can still see it, in fact, these people are not affiliated with Jinzhou Academy, but Cheng Shijie's own guards.

Sun Yuanhua looked at the two foreign devils in the crowd and said, "Shijie, what are you doing recruiting two students?" ”

Sun Yuanhua actually faintly dislikes these two foreign devils, because they are too dirty, dirtier than beggars.

"If it's dirty, you can wash it!"

Cheng Shijie smiled: "Lord Futai, wait a minute. ”

Cheng Shijie looked at Cheng Shi beside him and said: "Let people give them a new set of clothes, give them two buckets of water and let them rub for half an hour, don't come out if it's not clean!" ”

"Yes!"

Several Ning Haijun pounced like tigers, and the two foreign devils began to scream. One of the tall foreign devils stood in front of a slightly shorter foreign devil and confronted the officers of the Ning Navy.

This tall foreign devil is quite brave, and in the face of Ning Haijun's swords and guns, he still has the courage to resist, and there is really a kind.

Cheng Shijie heard that these sailors are full of physiological needs in order to solve their physiological needs, and the husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes, and they are true love.

These foreign devils were actually captured by the Ning Navy when they attacked Meng Xianhan, and there were always more than a hundred, because of the recruitment of teachers from Jinzhou Academy, both of them were proficient in arithmetic and proficient in Chinese, so they were recruited.

One of the foreign devils was not bad, and he actually knocked two Ning Navy soldiers to the ground with three strikes and five divisions. The third Ning Navy soldier was also kicked in the leg by a side, kicking a stumbling one.

Cheng Shijie was a little strange: "Hehe, there are two hits!" ”

Don't look at Cheng Shijie laughing, the guards around him all know that Cheng Shijie is angry now. As the saying goes, the lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the lord humiliates the ministers to death.

Cheng Shijie's guards naturally have masters, such as Wu Sheng, who was originally the son of Wu Huanrong, the last commander of Qi Jin's guard. During the Battle of the Hunhe River, Wu Huanrong died in battle, and Wu Sheng was only seventeen years old at the time, and he had already won the true biography of Wu Huanrong.

The boxing he practiced is called "Bazi Boxing", that is, "Baji Boxing", and some are called Qijia Boxing. In fact, this is the melee combat technique promoted by Qi Jiguang in the army. Its movements are simple and concise, fierce and brittle, especially for the small day samurai with strong melee ability, and has a strong restraint.

When Wu Sheng took refuge in Cheng Shijie, Zhang Yu, who thought he was a good player, fought with him, and his arm was hit by Wu Sheng's elbow, and Zhang Yu's lower arm microvessels ruptured, swollen like a calf, and the swelling failed to go down for a whole month, which was the result of Wu Sheng's mercy.

Now Wu Sheng is twenty-seven years old, twenty-eight years old, it is the peak state of the boxer, when the Dongjiang Army was wandering, Wu Sheng's body had a deficit, and now it has already been replenished.

Wu Sheng's shot is the classic move of Bajiquan, and the tiger climbs the mountain hard.

Although that foreign devil is tall, he is extremely flexible, and his ability to resist attacks is super strong, and he can still hold on in the face of Wu Sheng's stormy attack.

However, the problem is that Wu Sheng wanted to show his head prize in front of Cheng Shijie, but he didn't expect this foreign devil to be able to carry the beating, he was not polite, without reservation, and launched a stormy attack on the other party.

At this time, the short foreign devil shouted: "Stop, stop, don't fight, please don't fight anymore......"

Cheng Shijie and Sun Yuanhua glanced at each other, and both of them showed surprised looks.

Because this short foreign devil spoke in a female voice, and his voice was quite bright.

"Stop!"

At this time, Wu Sheng leaned on an iron mountain to push out the tall foreign devil at least five meters of open rice, and the foreign devil was beaten unconscious.

"Commandery, lowly duty...... Didn't stop! ”

"Pretty good!"

Cheng Shijie patted Wu Sheng's shoulder and said, "This handsome will reward you with ten taels of silver!" ”

"Thank you!"

Don't look at Cheng Shijie just said lightly, in the interior of Ning Haijun, his words are golden mouths, saying that the reward is ten taels of silver, which is ten taels of silver.

Wu Sheng grinned and lowered his voice: "Dashuai, that ghost has two hits, and it is very rare to be able to hold on for more than a dozen rounds under the hands of a lowly officer!" ”

Seeing the foreign devil fall to the ground, several Ning Haijun still insisted on carrying out Cheng Shijie's order and asked them to take a bath.

Because of the difference between men and women, the original plan to give the two of them a single room was temporarily changed, and the Ning Navy soldiers took them to the teacher's dormitory, which is the standard for single teachers.

Two small rooms, about twenty square meters, one as a living room and one as a bedroom. The bedroom is two beds, and usually, it is two bedrooms for two people.

These two foreign devils are actually Catherine Contarini, the commander of the hapless Venetian combined fleet to support Crete.

Contarini is one of the oldest families in Venice, and their origins are also linked to the founding of Venice. The current governor of the Republic of Venice, Niccolò, is Catherine's father, and the former governor of Francesco is Catherine's grandfather.

Although the Venetian city-state republic was a classical republic of its own, in fact, within this coalition government was a mixture of three basic institutions: the royal power of the duke, the aristocracy of the Senate, and the democracy of the Grand Council.

As in the opening chapter of an online book, Catherine's father, Niccolò, had five older brothers, three younger brothers, all of whom died in battle, and until now, Catherine has four adult older brothers, all of whom have also died in battle, except for an eleven-year-old brother, who, according to Venetian tradition, is now the second in line to the Cantarini family.

If something happens to her brother, she will succeed her as the patriarch of the Contaniri family, and whether she can become the governor or consul of Venice will need to be elected. However, she also has great opportunities.

In order to revitalize the family, the twelve-year-old Catherine entered the army, and now the seventeen-year-old Catherine is not only a Venetian naval lieutenant commander of the Combined Fleet, but also a five-year veteran.

The tall foreign devil who was injured was called Giovanni Corona, and the Corona family is also one of the ancient families of Venice, with eight governors and a very prominent status.

Although she knew that Giovanni liked her very much, Catherine could not agree, because the Contarini family was more important, and if she married Giovanni, the Contarini family would become a vassal of the Corona family, and even be annexed. This is unacceptable to her.

A Ning Navy soldier took Catherine and Giovanni to the adjacent dormitory, and then threw each of them a new garment, which was definitely not a missionary's priest's robe, of course, but a Confucian gown of the Ming Dynasty.

Azure caftan and underwear. And then there's a paper packet, which is the soap from one of the crossing artifacts. In the Ming Dynasty, this thing has been used on a large scale, but because the main raw materials are oil and alkali, mixed with spices. Due to the small farmland economy of the Ming Dynasty, the production of animal fats and fats was seriously insufficient.

The cost of soap is very high, a piece of soap does not count the labor cost, it needs almost 500 yuan, plus the labor cost, it needs more than 600 yuan, that is, six dollars of silver, which is equivalent to the current grain six buckets.

Catherine sniffed it and found that it was actually scented of tea, and was very happy, in the days of her captivity, she did not have a chance to bathe, and if she did not speak, no one could find out that she was a woman.

Although it is said that the women of Europa are generally larger, the problem is that because she has been in the barracks since she was twelve years old, and the feminist movement in Europa has not yet risen at this time, the status of women in Europa is not high, don't look at the emergence of many queens in Europa.

It is precisely because of the low status of women that she uses a chest strap, and as a result, at the age of seventeen, her breasts still look like those of twelve, except for the voice.

When Catherine entered the bathroom, she hurriedly took off her clothes and jumped into the tub where she was bathing, and the hot water was so hot that she couldn't help but scream.

Slowly, from pain to enjoyment. After soaking for a while, she picked up the soap and rubbed it violently on her body, causing bubbles all over her body......

While humming an unknown song, he danced and made a splash.

Catherine was lucky, and as for Giovanni, who was beaten to vomit blood and fell into a coma, she enjoyed the treatment of being served, first throwing herself in boiling hot water, soaking for half an hour, and then moving out and brushing directly with a brush. A brush made of pig bristles, although it is easy to rub off the ash.

But the problem is, the taste is very sour......

Two days later, Giovanni, who had just woken up, opened his eyes and saw Catherine holding a rice bowl, gobbling up her meal.

Giovanni immediately said to Catherine, "Dear Catherine, maybe you are overoptimistic! Your Excellency seems to value not our doctrine, but our knowledge! ”

Giovanni was furious at this time, he woke up when he was being painted, but no matter how much he begged for mercy, the Ming man simply ignored him, even after two days, he was now lying on the bed, his back was like a fire.

The conscience of heaven and earth, when he fought with Wu Sheng, the part of the beating was on the front, and he didn't suffer a little injury on his back......

"What's wrong with that?"

Catherine smiled: "I'm not a missionary, and neither are you, we are soldiers of the Republic of Venice City-State, and our strategic purpose is to support Crete, and now the mission has completely failed, but we ...... We ......"

"What are we?"

"It seems like we can get a strong ally!"

Catherine said excitedly, "Dear Giovanni, haven't you noticed? The pirates who attacked us were easily eliminated by General Cheng Your Excellency, and he still had tens of thousands of elite troops under his command, and it is said that he beheaded tens of thousands of powerful enemies without any effort, and beheaded tens of thousands, God, what kind of power is this? ”

Giovanni, a devout Catholic, muttered: "I have heard from the Catholics in Canton that they have developed a large number of churches, both of whom are elites, but these elites are not interested in our Pope, but in our European scientific and technological achievements. ”

"What does it matter, we can use our knowledge to slowly lead them to the right path and return him to the arms of God!"

"Catherine, please calm down!"

As soon as Giovanni was excited, there was pain everywhere in his body, and he gasped in pain: "You calm down, you can't do this!" ”

"I can do it!"

"You're too confident, you can't!"

"I can!"

"Just like Matteo Ricci, he made friends with many people in the core of power in this country, including Mr. Xu Guangqi, a highly respected and outstanding person, but Mr. Xu also went to Matteo Ricci's scientific attainments, they exchanged scientific knowledge all day long, if Matteo Ricci refused to help translate European scientific and technological works, his congregation would soon be gone!"

Giovanni smiled bitterly: "Even those who are truly converted to God are not very religious, and they believe in Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism while believing in God, and they don't take religious beliefs seriously......"

Catherine sighed and said, "No way, this huge country seems too casual on the issue of religious beliefs, and for thousands of years, no religion has been able to become the state religion of an entire country...... May we be able to make a difference here, dear Giovanni, we have no way out, not even the money to go back to Venice...... I have to rely on General Cheng! ”

……

After bathing, Catherine, who changed into a new dress, looked heroic, as long as she was free, she wanted to see Cheng Shijie.

In front of the General Army's Office.

Catherine asked the guards, "I ask to see General Cheng!" ”

"General Cheng is not in the General Military Mansion!"

"So, excuse me, where did he go?"

"I'm very sorry, this is a military secret, please don't ask!"

Catherine wanted to see Cheng Shijie, but she couldn't.

And Feng Sanniang, Yang Yunniang, Jin Qiaoer, and others, who were in the backyard of the General Soldier's Mansion, scolded: "Fan Po is Fan Po, shameless!" ”

Yang Yunniang: "Dare to seduce men in broad daylight!" ”

"You mean, she should come in the evening?"

"It's useless to come at night!"

Yang Yunniang wanted to see Cheng Shijie with a lot of questions, but unfortunately she couldn't see her.

At this time, Cheng Shijie was very busy.

At the end of March, the weather suddenly became hot, the sun had hung in the air, pouring heat into the earth, and looking up at the sky without a trace of clouds, as if the crackling sound of the sun could be heard.

Southern Liaoning is full of military households who are working hard to reclaim wasteland, and hundreds or thousands of military households are carrying out hoes bare-chested to reclaim pieces of wasteland. According to a rough estimate, during this period of time, they have reclaimed more than 3.5 million mu of wasteland, and the number of people is increasing, and the speed of reclamation is getting faster and faster, and it is not a problem to reclaim another 1.8 million mu of land.

The fields that were cultivated earlier were planted with traditional wheat, beans, sorghum, and some paddy fields were also planted with rice, while the fields that were cultivated later were planted with corn, potatoes, or sweet potatoes.

The current temperature is about 25 degrees, which belongs to the fastest growth rate of sweet potato seedlings, and in just three or four days, you can harvest stubble seedlings and then replant.

During this time, Cheng Shijie also spared no effort to transport seeds from later generations, buying all kinds of seeds everywhere, in order to enrich the dining table of southern Liaoning people, Cheng Shijie also brought pepper seeds from later generations, pepper seeds are very light, only 50 grams of land are needed for one acre, easy to carry, Cheng Shijie took ten days to bring 600 kilograms of seeds, which is 12,000 acres of peppers. This is followed by cabbage and radish.

At present, the population of southern Liaoning is far from reaching the point of saturation, and there is too much land abandoned due to irrigation difficulties, poor fertility, and so on.

Those sweet potatoes are also growing well. Cheng Shijie asked the military households to change the method of planting sweet potatoes, first ridges, divide a piece of land into several ridges, then open a ditch in the middle of the ridges, fill it with grass ash, silt and other things as fertilizer, and finally fill it back, planting two potato seedlings every half a foot.

This method makes the military households feel very novel, in the past, they planted sweet potatoes without ridges, let alone fertilizer, and the small potatoes were planted in the field, but I didn't expect that there would be so much exquisiteness.

Now the potato vine is growing like crazy, but it won't be crazy for long, and the military households have to cut the potato seedlings every day and transplant them, although it grows well, but it can't go crazy.

Cheng Shijie wants this effect, if the potato vine grows too crazy, the yield of sweet potatoes will be affected, so it's just right!

Don't worry too much about the dry wheat fields, where the waterwheels are still turning, lifting the water ashore and then sending it along the ditches to the distant fields.

Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, almost sat in southern Liaoning, because he had to wait for Chen Zilong and others to arrive, but the problem was that Chen Zilong should have arrived in early March, but Miss Xu Si went to sea by boat for the first time, and she was still excited at first, and she was tired of it after four or five days, so she had to take a carriage and go all the way north to enjoy the scenery along the way.

Miss Xu Si's appeal is very strong, the group of sons and brothers accompanied them, Chen Zilong had no choice but to let the fleet go slowly, the original trip of more than 20 days, it took more than 40 days to get to Dengzhou.

Sun Yuanhua watched Cheng Shijie make the tuntian impressive, tried every means to top fertilize, tried every way to irrigate, and dug wells and ditches at all costs. Now Cheng Shijie is taking a group of craftsmen again, what kind of phosphate fertilizer is he doing......

Sun Yuanhua was even wondering, is it still necessary for Chen Zilong to come to southern Liaoning?

In Cheng Shijie's opinion, it is very necessary for Chen Zilong to come, especially the group of sons, they came to southern Liaoning to send money.

PS: Because Lao Cheng's father was hospitalized for lung cancer, he didn't spend the New Year at home during the Spring Festival, and now he returns to his hometown, relatives and friends come to visit his father, and the guests need to be entertained, so there is no time to code words, and he fell asleep after writing more than 2,000 words in the chapter at night, and got up at five o'clock in the morning to write. In the evening, try to do your best.
