Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
After Li Zisheng finished visiting the Starry Returning Yuan Array, he said goodbye to the disciples of the Heavenly Array Sect, and the last person returned to his courtyard.
At this time, the night leak was already deeper, and the two maids who served him, Huan'er and Yue'er, were also familiar with this immortal master's "little master", and now they were also half official members of the Iron Youth League. So he didn't deliberately wait for him to come back, but sat by the fire and sat with the female red.
The winter clothes in their hands were not for themselves or Li Zisheng, but were intended to be given to the poorest students in Yixue.
Li Sangongzi himself is not invaded by cold and heat, and he also has the uniform from the sect, so he doesn't need winter clothes at all, so he didn't think of this section for a while, and he only showed his omission after being reminded.
Therefore, in the past few days, some fabrics and chicken and duck feathers have been purchased, and down jackets have been arranged for people to make down jackets for those poor families who are not well fed, especially the children who are studying in Yixue.
It's not that he is reluctant to buy ready-to-wear clothes, but the ready-to-wear industry here in Zhongzhou is aimed at either cultivators or mortals who are more Yuanshi, how can they deliberately make zuò clothes for ordinary people. Therefore, Li Sangongzi has nowhere to buy it if he wants to.
In fact, in the pre-modern society, the clothing of the average family was made by the women of the family, both in China and abroad. There is a "Book of Rites" about marriage, and in the "Faint Record", the requirements for women are summarized into four items: "Derong Yangong".
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, that is, the famous scholar Zheng Xuan of the Three Kingdoms period, commented: "Women's morality, chastity and obedience, women's words, rhetoric, women's appearance, graceful delivery, women's skills, silk and linen."
This "silk linen" means that women must master the ability to cut clothes.
Before the establishment of the industrialized large-scale production system, the social division of labor would naturally not be so subdivided. Therefore, except for those dignitaries at the top of society, human clothing can only be produced at home.
Although Zhongzhou has one foot in industrialization, the class division is too great. The standard of living of ordinary mortals has not yet reached the point where they can buy ready-to-wear clothing, and without this demand, there will naturally be no industry. No matter how powerful Li Zisheng is, it is impossible to establish an industry in one day.
He could only move the masses to set up a handicraft workshop-style quilt factory like the Red Army in those days, and gather the adult female families of mortal craftsmen to make clothes for everyone.
Fortunately, Li Sangongzi is to provide everyone with cold-proof clothes, and there is no need to spend more effort on the design and production of zuò, and the process of making zuò is also simple. Moreover, he made it clear that he had a "down jacket". The cost of making zuò was greatly reduced, so not too many yuan stones were spent on this good deed.
And he didn't need the "personal" service of these two little maids, so he simply let them become the stewards of the Canghai quilt factory. also found an old account room from the Canghai branch of Xinyi Shuntang to cooperate with them.
Poor Huan'er Yue'er is from a small family, although she has seen some markets with little immortal masters like Li Zisheng and Liu Wufang, but it is really a big challenge for them to get started with such management work. It is also fortunate that Li Sangongzi has a high prestige in the Canghai Shipyard, and the mortals here are relatively simple. Therefore, these two little girls did a good job under the advice of their "little master".
In fact, Li Zisheng didn't mean to embarrass these two little girls. In fact, he encountered a problem that most revolutionary "leaders" will struggle with all their lives, that is, the problem of building the ranks of cadres.
There is an old saying, what is the most lacking in the 21st century?
In fact, since the establishment of human society in the century, talent has always been the most lacking. Even today, when higher education has become a cabbage, finding the right talent is an extremely headache for many companies. Not to mention the third son of Li in Central Continent.
The problem he faced was a little more complicated, the cultivation realm was originally a place where people and spirits gathered, and it was not difficult to find some "talents", what he lacked the most was the "talents" among mortals.
This is the difference between Li Zisheng, a soldier of the Liberator Legion, and the people of Middle-earth. In the world of high magic and high martial arts. It's easy to equate talent with combat power. But in his eyes, it is possible to make up for the combat power with technical means. But real talents, even the "managers" who manage a small quilt factory, are hard to find.
It is true that as long as the human race reaches a certain number, there will naturally be natural leaders among them, but that is something that can be met but not sought. Managers must also be cultivated from an early age.
In fact, youth organizations such as the Young Pioneers are one of the means to train managers. Even if a child cannot become a "leader" like a squad leader, squadron leader, and captain, but he or she is in such a system, he or she will know how a disciplined organization works, and when necessary, he or she can also take on some management work.
Most people are not born managers, just as most people are not born soldiers, scientists, musicians......
Popularization of education is not only about teaching young people to master the necessary culture, science, and knowledge, but also about understanding the methods of running social organizations. Even if this teenager can only be a "managed" for the rest of his life.
Management is a very important skill, and "being managed" is a very important skill.
The argument that discipline is a stifling of a child's free nature is an outright fallacy. Because discipline itself violates the nature of intelligent human beings, think about how many people would consciously obey discipline if the teacher did not name the attendance rate in a university course.
But modern society requires disciplined members to run smoothly. This is true for the army, this is true for the government, this is true for factories, even if it is a small restaurant.
Of course, whether the discipline set for young people is reasonable or not is another question.
As long as the ruler is above the standard, he knows that in an industrialized society, the masses of the people under his rule must have a certain degree of discipline in order to play the role of "governed" well. Of course, they don't necessarily have to use the Young Pioneers, but team sports are also an excellent way to shape the discipline of young people.
The current situation is to put it bluntly, that is, Li Zisheng is short of manpower, and the pioneer Yixue he established is only in the few rooms in Iron Mountain City that can be harvested. However, those mortal students were absorbed by the growing Changshan Army Workshop, and the Tieshan Tiejia was also very interested in these students with a certain cultural quality, and they recruited many students from Yixue to work for them.
Faced with this situation, Li Sangongzi was also a little unexpected, but he couldn't reach it. So now I can only pull it into the basket first.
These two little girls are also grateful people, and they also know that Li Sangongzi is kind-hearted, so they not only manage the quilt factory conscientiously, but also make clothes for everyone whenever they are free.
So as soon as Li Zisheng entered the door, he saw Huan'er Yue'er still sewing a down jacket there with sleepy eyes, and she couldn't help but feel warm. The courage of these two "maids" is a little smaller, but is this diligent energy still considerable?
Seeing him come in, the two women hurriedly threw down their work and greeted him. Li Sangongzi warmly said a few words of condolence, and then beat them to sleep.
He changed into loose clothes and walked into the independent practice room against the cliff.
Although it is the midwinter season in November, it is the fifteenth day at this time, and the weather tonight is even more clear, and a bright moon is hanging high above the sea and sky. The scales and flesh of the fish spirit were still floating on the surface of the sea, which made the scene even more confusing.
There was no need for a palm lamp, and the moonlight illuminated the entire practice room. In fact, Li Sangongzi can see clearly in the dark without light now, and it makes no difference to him whether there is moonlight or not.
But the scene in front of me is indeed refreshing, and the mind can't help but feel free, and the sound of the waves in my ears makes people's mood calm down at once. Li Sangongzi couldn't help but let go of the obstacles in his heart.
Li Zisheng looked up in front of the window and admired the moonlight for a while, then turned around and sat on the futon and began to meditate and refine qi.
He didn't know that there was a pair of eyes beneath the surface of the water far away watching him and the shipyard beneath his feet...... (To be continued......)
