Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty
Chapter 516 Ancestor Insufficiency Law
Chapter 516 Ancestor Insufficiency Law (Two in One)
"Well, what kind of walkie-talkie is this? Let's leave it here. If there is anything I need, I don't need to pass on the order." Chongzhen glanced at the walkie-talkie in Liu Hongjian's hand and said.
Chongzhen felt a little upset, thinking that there was such a heaven-defying fetish, why did he hide it until he took it out.
"Eh... Your Majesty, this thing is useless, the communication distance is only ten miles, and... it consumes a lot of electricity." Liu Hongjian couldn't see that the uncle was unhappy, so he had to explain.
The transmission distance of the mobile station is about three to five kilometers. At that time, he thought it was interesting, so he specially tested it with his roommate, Fat Boy. The distance is more than five kilometers, and there is basically only a crackling noise.
"Ten miles? That's amazing! What's the cost? Electricity? What is this?" Chongzhen was full of surprise. If he had this fetish in his hand during the Northern Expedition, wouldn't he have to worry about it later when the two armies were fighting?
When you are worried, just report it directly...
"Eh..." Liu Hongjian was once again stopped by Chongzhen, who was studious and inquisitive.
Electricity is a natural phenomenon, which refers to the phenomenon brought about by the movement of charges, and is a property of the repulsion and attraction between subatomic particles such as electrons and protons...
It's just...even if it's explained like this...it's strange that this uncle can understand!
"Electricity is the food of this fetish. It can help the emperor deliver the message after eating the food." Liu Hongjian almost bit the bullet and explained. Although the analogy is very strange, it still makes sense.
He had to fool Uncle Chongzhen, otherwise it would have been a long story, but what Liu Hongjian didn't expect was that Chongzhen's next question almost drove Liu Hongjian crazy.
"Then where is the electricity? I am rich all over the world, how can I let this god go hungry?" Chongzhen asked very seriously.
Pfft——Liu Hongjian just took a sip of tea and sprayed it out.
Yes, you are rich all over the world, but this kind of electricity is not something that can be bought with a few cents in later generations, and you might have to pay for it with your life!
"Your Majesty, you must have seen thunder and thunderbolts when it rains." After thinking for a while, Liu Hongjian suddenly remembered lightning.
"Of course I have." Chongzhen replied honestly like a questioning student.
"It will eat this!"
……
In late March, all things come back to life, and peach blossoms and apricot blossoms in Xishan bloom one after another, embellishing the mountains with fragrance.
The Institute of Engineering also started enrolling students three days ago, but just as Liu Hongjian expected, before the imperial edict was issued, and the treatment was not announced, very few people came to the Institute of Engineering to enroll.
After all, craftsmen are too poor, and the common people have a little way, and those who have farmland at home will not choose to become a craftsman.
In the three days, the Engineering College only recruited a little over 110 young disciples, and nine out of ten of them were the children of the original class of craftsmen in the Ordnance Institute.
The craftsmen in the Ordnance Institute were the first to taste the sweetness, and now most of the craftsmen have entered a well-off life. They are happy that no one will compete with their children for places, and they look down on the common people who still despise craftsmen as fools.
The plaque of the Institute of Engineering was written by Chongzhen himself. Although it was only a folk study and was not valued by the court, it was not worth Liu Hongjian's face. Chongzhen was still very happy to order people to study ink, and wrote a powerful Eight characters:
Daming Royal Institute of Technology!
As soon as the signboard with Chongzhen's private seal was hung up, the effect was much better. On the second day, hundreds of children from poor families came to sign up.
In order to make the College of Engineering flourish, Song Yingxing racked his brains and painstakingly these days, supervising the construction of various buildings and taking charge of the relocation of the ordnance station during the day.
At night, I still have to think hard, looking for great talents to teach the dozens of new subjects in the College of Engineering.
It's okay to talk about agriculture, after all, it's Lao Song's own specialty, and his two unsatisfactory sons did their part, and won the teaching post of agricultural subjects.
The civil engineering was undertaken by Fang Jingzi, who invented the spinning machine, and the water conservancy project was presided over by Niu Chun, the head of Shandong Ministry of Industry.
Niu Chun was a little unhappy at first. After all, although the head of the Ministry of Industry is a small official, he is still an official, and he is only in his early 40s, still young.
But he couldn't suppress his soft-spokenness, and was tricked by Liu Hongjian into giving three times the principal's salary, plus Chongzhen's words, so he had to honestly roll up and roll into Beijing.
Liu Hongjian didn't feel sorry for this guy, he firmly believed that in a few years time, this old cow would definitely be proud of being an instructor of the engineering college.
When it comes to poaching talents, Song Yingxing is the best. After all, he is an industry personnel. He still knows who is the best in science and engineering in Daming.
Dozens of letters were sent from the Ordnance Office, and in just over ten days, all kinds of outstanding people who lived in seclusion in their hometowns were brought back from various places, among which Xu Ji was the most outstanding.
Speaking of Xu Ji may be a bit unfamiliar, but if you talk about his father, it is estimated that everyone in Ming Dynasty knows it.
Xu Ji's father is Xu Guangqi, a scientist who is as famous as Song Yingxing, but Uncle Xu is better than Uncle Song.
Uncle Xu died of illness in the sixth year of Chongzhen, leaving behind such masterpieces as "Original Geometry", "Taixi Water Method", "Complete Book of Agricultural Administration", "Kaogong Jijie".
He can be regarded as an expert in mathematics, astronomy, calendar, water conservancy, military affairs, etc. If there are all kinds of names in later generations at this time, the names on the head of Uncle Xu may be as follows:
Writers, military strategists, politicians, Confucianists, mathematicians, astronomers, hydrologists, civil engineers...
And all of them are outstanding. Looking at future generations, in terms of name, I am afraid that there is only one big man with the surname Guo who can compare with him. It's just that this old Guo has a lot of names.
Oh, digressing, although Xu Ji does not have the attainments of his father in Confucianism, and he is still an old examiner after taking part in five imperial examinations, but in other fields his father dabbled in, he can be regarded as evenly matched.
Xu Ji was about the same age as Song Yingxing. Although he had little acquaintance with Song Yingxing, he had heard of the name of the Ordnance Institute, and heard that it was a paradise for craftsmen.
In his twilight years, the martyr was full of ambition, and at the invitation of Song Yingxing, he took a boat from his hometown of Shanghai County all the way to the capital without saying a word.
Liu Hongjian was so happy that the boss was naturally overjoyed, and even held a big banquet at the Armory Station to clean up Uncle Xu.
As soon as the experts opened their mouths, they would know if there was any. After a simple chat at the banquet, Liu Hongjian was overjoyed and picked up another treasure.
On March 29, Chongzhen went to the early court and drove to Xishan.
Although he had already received the letter that Uncle Chongzhen was coming to visit, when Chongzhen came, Liu Hongjian's face turned green.
Uncle Chongzhen didn't come alone, he brought a group of guards, servants, and guard of honor with a total of 9000 people.
This is why Chongzhen has repeatedly streamlined the team, otherwise, according to the usual etiquette system, Chongzhen would need at least 2 people to go out of the palace.
Because Chongzhen came to the spring outing on the basis of inspection this time, the entourage rarely brought Queen Zhou and Princess Kunxing and Zhaoren.
Nearly ten thousand people flocked to the armory at once, making Liu Hongjian panic-stricken.
When his fiancée Kun Xing met Liu Hongjian, he was deeply courteous, and when he saw this delicate little sister, Liu Hongjian scratched his head, arranged marriage, sinful old society!
Greeting Sun Xiuxiu and Yang Xue, the second female general, Queen Zhou, the two princesses and other female relatives led them up the mountain, while Liu Hongjian himself went to the ordnance station with Chongzhen.
The most excited ones were the craftsmen of the Ordnance Institute. When a group of craftsmen heard that the emperor was coming, it was okay, and all of them bowed down with tears in their eyes.
The emperor came to see them, to see these miserable people who were ignored by the court, despised by the literati, and despised by the gentry. Who would have thought that they would see the sky in their lifetime?
Chongzhen was also filled with emotion when he saw the craftsmen kneeling on the ground. It was these craftsmen who had been neglected by the court and he had armed his army, helped Ming to drive out the Tartars, and wiped out all Xiaoxiao.
"Wang Erxi, let's proclaim the decree!" Chongzhen sighed, what a belated decree.
"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said:
It is my fault that the craftsman household system in the Ming Dynasty was originally a unified household registration management system, but it has accumulated many disadvantages, causing all people to be ashamed of craftsmen, and engineering and learning.
The ancients said that the destiny is not enough to be feared, the words of people are not enough to be sympathetic, and the ancestors are not enough to follow the law.
For the sake of the craftsmen in the world, and for the sake of Ming's engineering and learning, I have thought a lot about it, and ordered the abolition of the registration of craftsmen's households.
All the children of craftsmen can do business, take the imperial examination, and work in agriculture, etc., and their bodies are free, and their careers are also free.
The rotation of craftsmen is abolished, and all craftsmen in the world can go to the Xishan Ordnance Institute in the capital to participate in the rating and salary determination.
All craftsmen in the world, regardless of the imperial court or local dignitaries and hundreds of officials, need to be hired and paid for their labor.
My great Ming needs the common people as the foundation, craftsmen as the bricks, and literati as the bones. My expectation is that all people will work bravely and move forward for the great Ming.
Appreciate this! "
After Wang Erxi finished reading, he handed over the imperial decree to Xiao Huangmen behind him.
This imperial decree begins with the edict, and the edict is to inform the world. It is the most official decree of the emperor. Chongzhen wants to inform the world that Ming Dynasty has changed.
If the law of the ancestors is not conducive to the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, then change it. If the disaster of natural disasters poisons the people of the Ming Dynasty, then conquer it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty Long En, long live my emperor—"
"Long live my emperor—"
Hundreds of craftsmen in the Ordnance Institute cried out that once the 300-year shackles were removed, this kind of blessing is worthy of their shouting, and even more worthy of their heartfelt gratitude.
Looking at all this, Liu Hongjian was filled with emotion. If Chongzhen hadn't seen the strength of the craftsmen, if the craftsmen hadn't produced so many guns and grenades, they had helped Ming win the protracted national war.
Perhaps, the shackles of craftsmen are not so easy to break free.
It is conceivable that when the imperial decree is issued to all parts of the Ming Dynasty, the craftsmen of the world will be crazy. At least in the first year, many craftsmen will definitely abandon their jobs and start farming.
However, Liu Hongjian was not worried about this. The ordnance factory had high salaries and good treatment. As early as half a year ago, Liu Hongjian had signed a new employment document—lifetime tenure.
Those who sign a life-long contract will double their salary, and in the years to come, their salary will only increase and not decrease.
The last item of the document clearly states that anyone who breaks the contract halfway will be required to pay [-]% of the total salaries paid from the date of signing.
The punishment was not light, but it was so. Almost all the craftsmen in the Ordnance Institute signed a lifetime contract.
The Ordnance Institute gave them good living conditions, dignity, and hope.
It's a good thing to have hope.
"Youming, your West Mountain is really well built, much more interesting than my imperial palace." Chongzhen slowly climbed up the steps from the ordnance station on the mountainside.
Although Xishan was not high, Chongzhen was not in good health after all, but he still drank his car and decided to climb the mountain himself.
In the mountains, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, and the sun is shining. Every [-] steps, a pavilion is set up for a rest. Looking down from the pavilion, you can have a panoramic view of the entire capital.
On the mountainside, a clear spring gushes out from the crevices of the rocks, rushes down, and flows into the Wuding River at the foot of the mountain.
In Xishan, there are two newly-built colleges, the ordnance institute of the scientific research center of the Ming Dynasty, and there are no less than 2 craftsmen, workers and their families in various workshops.
It is conceivable that when the two colleges are established to give courses, this place will definitely attract the attention of the entire Ming Dynasty.
Everyone needs food and clothing, and although Xishan is near the capital, it is still inconvenient to go back and forth to buy goods, which means that there are business opportunities, and it won't be long before all kinds of businessmen will be targeting here.
Xishan will become a new town.
"Youming, why is the high tower over there used?" After finally climbing to the courtyard on the top of the mountain, Chongzhen was a little out of breath, and pointed to a building on the west side of the courtyard that was higher than the courtyard.
"This is a water storage pool in Chennong, which is responsible for supplying water to the top of the mountain." Liu Hongjian briefly explained.
Supplying water to the top of the mountain was the first problem Liu Hongjian encountered. Even though there is spring water on the mountainside, it is still not easy to send the spring water to the top of the mountain without a pressure pump.
In the end, Uncle Song thought of a trick and built a large pool for water storage under the mountain spring, built a big windmill in the pool, and made iron pipes made of fine steel to go straight to the water storage pool on the top of the mountain.
When storing water, only a dozen people need to be sent to operate the windmill, and the water can be sent to the top of the mountain 200 meters above it.
"Why is this house a masonry building? What is it for?" Walking a hundred steps forward, Chongzhen found even weirder buildings on the side of the courtyard.
Although the exterior is filled with mahogany, the interior is made of cement bricks and stones. The interior is divided into five or six separate rooms, and there is a circular pool in the middle. The interior of the entire room is painted with light blue paint. .
"Returning to the emperor, this is the shower room built by the minister, which is exclusively for the use of the minister's family." Liu Hongjian laughed.
To put it bluntly, it is a bathhouse, the water supply is directly connected to the water tower, each single room has a water valve, the water can be heated, and there is coal stone heating under the room, so you can still take a comfortable hot bath in winter.
Wooden houses are prone to water seepage, and they are perishable over time and are not suitable for bathhouses. Cement bricks and stones do not have this problem. The reason why the interior is concrete and the exterior is wood is to make the entire building complex look integrated.
In a word, in Xishan, he is the BOSS, he can remodel everything he wants as he likes.
"You can enjoy it, you have come up with all sorts of weird ideas." Chongzhen laughed.
"But I like it here."
……
