People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 555 Planning ahead
Li Zheng looked at Li Tai who was standing at the door talking to Cheng Chumo.

Xu Hui poured a cup of hot tea and whispered, "The village is really busy recently."

Seeing that Li Zheng didn't reply, Xu Hui looked at his expression.

It seemed that since meeting Li Zheng, this was the first time seeing him with such an expression.

In the past, no matter how big things happened, Li Zheng always looked calm and calm.

Seeing that Li Zheng was silent, Xu Hui stood aside and remained silent.

After sitting for a long time, Li Zheng changed his sitting position and asked Xu Hui, "Do you think you will ignore the next meal after one meal?"

Xu Hui came back to her senses and said: "Expenses have always been carefully calculated. Didn't the Chang'an Order always say to be frugal? How dare you waste it?"

"That's not what it means." Li Zheng added, "I mean, did you live your life from day to day?"

"Not at all."

Xu Hui felt a little strange about Li Zheng's words, so she just answered like this.

Li Zheng withdrew his mind, stood up again and said, "Forget it, don't worry about it, I'll go fishing."

Xu Hui smiled and nodded, "Everything at home has been arranged. Is Chang'an Ling planning to go to another hospital for dinner or to eat at home?"

"I can do it myself."

"understood."

Xu Hui nodded slightly.

Seeing Li Zheng leaving the house with his fishing rod on his shoulders, Xu Hui continued to clean the yard.

When he came to the river, Li Zheng dug some earthworms and hung them on the fishhooks.

Throw the hook into the river and sit on the stone to fish.

This big rock has been by the river for some years and has never been moved.

Daniel also came with a bamboo pole.

This kid has grown a lot taller now, and that brat was 14 years old now.

Li Zheng looked at him and said, "You've grown a lot taller."

Daniel looked at the calm river and said, "Now the students know why the teacher likes fishing."

"why."

Da Niu felt the occasional wind and said: "When I was studying in the academy, the students were always obsessed with learning. Now I think about my former self and I am a little dazed. Why don't I stop for a while. I haven't had a good look at the village for a long time."

It's good for the kid to have such a mentality.

Daniel went on to say: "Actually, the students have been fishing here these days. When fishing, they can do nothing. Just looking at the calm river water makes people quiet, and they don't think about so many other things. It will be much better."

Li Zheng said to Daniel: "Study is the same, don't be too anxious, and don't be too eager for success."

Daniel nodded, "The students understand, but it seems that the teacher hasn't come fishing for a while."

"I just came here yesterday."

Daniel smiled and said, "Teacher left after sitting here for less than half an hour."

"That's because it's raining."

"The teacher didn't come for a long time before it rained."

Li Zheng put down the fishing rod in his hand, "It's true that I haven't come fishing for a long time. I have been reading at home these days. Sometimes I think about learning endlessly, sometimes I think it's better to be content with the status quo, and sometimes Do you think it will be easier if you do more now, what do you think?"

Daniel shook his head, "Students don't think so much. There are so many things to learn. It seems that they can't finish learning in this lifetime."

Li Zheng said in a low voice: "Knowledge has no end. Learn and live forever. Knowledge has no boundaries."

After Daniu glanced behind him to confirm that there was no one around, he whispered: "Teacher, you want to build the dam for more workshops in the future."

Li Zheng looked at Daniel suspiciously.

Daniel went on to say: "Actually, the students in all the workshops in Jingyang know that it is the same no matter in handicraft skills, but I just think it is a little strange."

Li Zheng picked up the fishing rod and hoisted up a grass carp, and said to Daniel, "Go on."

"Okay." Daniel sat up straight and said, "According to the students' current understanding, there are so many workshops in Jingyang, each workshop is not very big, and there are only a few people, but every skill requires hands. To complete it, but Jingyang has so many people, the teacher wants to increase the output of the printing workshop, but does not want to expand the scale, which is very contradictory."

Li Zheng nodded to signal him to continue.

Daniel went on to say: "In fact, the water-powered spinning wheel made by the teacher was an idea for the students. The water-powered spinning wheel borrows water power to make the spinning wheel more convenient, and the speed of weaving is also several times faster than the previous hand-made spinning wheel."

"Just like book printing workshops, soap workshops, wine workshops, and blacksmith workshops, they are all the same. The problem these workshops are facing now is to change the method, just like replacing manpower with water power, and making such a semi-automatic spinning wheel can improve efficiency."

Daniu is only a fourteen-year-old child, and he hits the point in one sentence.

That's true, and very reasonable.

The handicraft industry is actually a bottleneck, breaking through this bottleneck is industry.

Daniu whispered: "The teacher built the dam for this. If the manual method is not changed, the workshop in Jingyang will continue to stand still."

This kid has reached this point now, and I have to say that what Daniel said is right, and what he said is right.

If the production method is not changed, Jingyang’s workshops will remain stagnant. If the production method does not change, even the income will stagnate after Jingyang’s workshops are saturated.

Of course, you can also sell more perfume or do some other things to generate some income.

However, they are all palliatives, not the root cause. They will only expand the workshop and expand the business endlessly.

It's like you use a saw to cut wood hard, only to repeat it again and again.

But that's not the case when you have a chainsaw.

Will be imprisoned in the stage of handicraft industry forever.

Li Zheng said to Daniu: "In fact, there are many ways to change the production method of the workshop, not just relying on water power. The purpose of my construction dam is not only to produce water power, but also for many important purposes."

Daniel looked at the river water as if lost in thought.

Of course, industry is also a Pandora's box.

Once this Pandora's box is opened, everything will be turned upside down.

That was another era.

If Jingyang's workshops expand, once those secret recipes and workmanship spread, and these technologies will not spread for a few years, tens of thousands of workshops will appear in Datang.

At that time, the whole class of Tang Dynasty will also undergo tremendous changes.

There will be an extra class between civilians and businessmen.

This class is not the rich and powerful, but the class that controls money.

Everything in a corner of Jingyang is easy to control, but the vast world outside Jingyang is hard to say.

Expansion requires means of controlling industry.

Li Zheng said to Daniel: "There is a way to build roads first if you want to get rich, and to build food and grass before soldiers and horses are moved. Today, the teacher will teach you another knowledge called advanced planning."

Daniel raised his spirits, "Teacher, please explain."
