Poor family mother and son

Chapter 933 Oh, I said fate

What the emperor said was both reasonable and unreasonable, but unfortunately Hu Hengqiu couldn't sum it up.

Chu Qing's jade mining team did not have these accidents, it was because there was Chu Qing in the team.

Chu Qing knew about altitude sickness, but in fact Daxuan should also have doctors who knew about it. After all, Daxuan did not have high altitude areas.

However, altitude sickness is rarely recorded in ancient books, and even if it exists, it only describes the symptoms, such as "wheezing when walking", "the one who passes will be panting" or "the one who passes will not wake up".

And most of them will first judge "acclimatization", and then classify it as "miasma poison" because of the patient's complexion.

So if Chu Qing didn't tell the public about the altitude sickness, it is estimated that Daxuan would not have someone who understands better.

Invisibly, this medical knowledge was monopolized by Chu Qing.

In fact, knowledge is monopolized, apart from the deliberate actions of the upper class in society, there is another unavoidable reason: poor population mobility.

This problem goes deeper.

Poor population mobility is superficially due to underdeveloped transportation, and then attributed to underdeveloped industry, but the internal reason is the land system.

People are tied to the land, and their ancestors have been tied to the same place for generations, so they rarely get outside information.

The dissemination of knowledge is inseparable from writing and language.

Text refers to books, which are monopolized by the upper class; language refers to word of mouth, and people are firmly tied to the land and cannot do without, so how can they get information from far away?
Chu Qing can resolve the discomfort that will occur after entering the plateau in daily life, and the boys at home are used to obeying orders, and they will not ask for a deep understanding.

Nowadays, kids don't know why they have altitude sickness, but they know what to do, and what to eat to maintain their health.

Even after they have adapted to the low-pressure and low-oxygen environment of the plateau, they can drink and eat meat like the locals.

And for those who stay at home and don’t plan to go out, there is no need to tell them these things. Even if they say it, people will be like ducks listening to thunder, leaving only "Someone is not acclimatized, and when they arrive in Voss, take a pee." I pissed myself to death" impression.

So the emperor wouldn't believe that peeing can kill people, let alone the emperor didn't believe it, wouldn't the imperial physician who went with the fourth prince wouldn't believe it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes?
Since he doesn't believe it, it can only be Zheng Chunqiu's evasive action.

These are superficial phenomena.

The most fundamental reason is that Chu Qing has always given the emperor the impression that everything she does is easy.

Whatever she is asked to do, she can do well; whatever she wants to do, she can also do well.

What does this mean?Explaining those things is not difficult!
No one has ever cared about how the jade mines are mined. It is not that there are no jade mines in this country, and the jade mines are not theirs.

No one has cared about the location of the jade mine in Voss, what is the geographical climate and environment there, and they are not the ones who dig stones, so what does it have to do with them?
They just need to know exactly how many benefits they can't get.

The emperor's impression not only comes from the success rate with Chu Qing, but also from the courtiers' consistent suppression and denial of Chu Qing——

Theories clearly stated can be found in books;

What Chu Qing does, the predecessors have already started, such as cotton and cotton cloth, people have already done it in Voss, even if there is no Chu Qing, Daxuan is not worried;
Chu Qing's blueprints are nothing more than the research of the craftsmen she hired, she just has a hand, in short, Chu Qing's work, one is to rely on the wisdom of the predecessors, and the other is to rely on the face of the emperor.

Even Zheng Chunqiu concluded that "Chu Qing has made contributions to the imperial court, but that is also her duty as a citizen of Daxuan, not to mention that she has been reused by the imperial court;
The king's salary must be shared with the king's worries, and everything she does is no different from other courtiers. "

Under such a premise, the emperor was naturally dissatisfied with Zheng Chunqiu.

A girl with little education can do things well, but Zheng Chunqiu, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, has done a mess, isn't there a problem?
If something is not difficult, but it is not done well, what does it mean?It shows that it's not that the person's level is not good, but that his attitude is not correct.

Zheng Chunqiu's work attitude was not correct, and he was dereliction of duty.

Oh, I said fate!
A lie repeated a thousand times becomes the truth. It can not only deceive others, but also deceive oneself.

This is how Zheng Chunqiu deceived himself. Of course, there are also reasons why he is eager to "pay for his sins".

Seeing that half a month passed, the bamboo seeds planted by the fourth prince did not move at all, Zheng Chunqiu glanced at the fourth prince with unkind eyes.

Don't you think I'm wasting my time?It takes me five days to dig a blasthole, and no matter how bad the gunpowder is, it will blow up some holes.

And you?Fifteen days have passed, and there is a fart result?You are playing, why don't you write a letter to tell you the emperor Lao Tzu?

The fourth prince tried his best not to look at Zheng Chunqiu in the past few days, avoiding his eyes.

What else?Zheng Chunqiu's method has little effect, but his own method has no effect!

He is checking whether the moso bamboo seeds have been gnawed by insects, whether they have rotted and deteriorated, or are the long, pointed seeds squeezed against each other in the bag and damaged?
Otherwise, how can it not grow seedlings?
They have been pouring water into the crevices of the quarry these days, so they shouldn't be thirsty.

Didn't it say that there is a seed that has magic and can easily fulfill my wishes?

Many times, when people find the cause of failure, they will stick to a speechless direction because they are unwilling to admit that there is a problem with their starting point.

In other words, don't understand, or don't want to find the reason from yourself.

Jobs said in one of his speeches: "There is something lacking in things, and there is something I don't know, and I always reflect on it."

So he can succeed, but the result of more people can only be continuous failure.

The fourth prince was still immersed in the problem of finding seeds, Zheng Chunqiu had lived most of his life, and started to be pragmatic.

Cherries are delicious and hard to plant, and flowers cannot bloom without hard work.

After learning from the pain, Zheng Chunqiu had no choice but to continue to complete this task by manual excavation according to the domestic method of mining jade.

After all, it's the same in China, and it's the same in the country of Voss, isn't it?

Eighteen kinds of tools, picks, picks, and drills were put into battle, and thousands of laborers were deeply resentful for carrying, pushing, and pulling.

Laborers want to go home, they don't want to be here to eat and drink.

The Worth Jade Mine is really a ghostly place. People here are prone to sunburn, dry and hot and cold. The daily food is only corn bread. If you die, you will starve to death, and if you die, you will die in a barren mountain!
Is it only difficult to drill this one?

No.

Otherwise, how did the phrase "blessings come in pairs, misfortunes never come singly" come from?

First came the news from the jade mining team on the river beach: they fought with the Voss, more than [-] people were injured, and the shovel was also taken away.

Then, someone from the mountain jade team fell off the cliff and died on the way down the mountain with the jade on his back.

Then there was the third news: the imperial court's food transport team was robbed when passing by the Hesot tribe. The food and horses were robbed, and everyone was injured. They were already on their way back to Daxuan.
