The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 573 Zhang Tang, what do you think?
Outside Lunu City, Li Yunze, who was wearing a sackcloth, used the tools in his hands to break open the mounds of soil.

The Hutuo River water brought in by digging ditches suddenly rushed in and poured into the fields.

This is a high-quality fertile farmland near the river, and on days with good weather, the yield can even reach as much as two stones.

The sun is shining in the sky, and the crops are growing vigorously.

At this moment, sufficient water resources are the most urgent needs of crops.

"Many ditches have been dug in the middle school." Li Yunze, who was barefoot, returned to the field ridge, and told Zhao Yan and others beside him, "This is a good thing, but we must also patrol along the river embankment, and the embankment must not be damaged by the construction of ditches." something happened."

Everyone agreed in unison.

People in the modern world seldom feel the horror of floods, because the rivers in the modern world have basically been governed and subdued.

Not only are there numerous large and small reservoirs up and down for flow regulation, but there are basically solid embankments along the river for protection.

The flood that once caused countless disasters has almost been completely tamed.

But here in Dahan, there are not so many facilities, so the flood is still a terrible existence.

The Hutuo River is still good, not so violent, but in the heavy rain season in summer, it will already be harmful, so when digging ditches, we must not relax the repair and maintenance of the river embankment.

The civil and military people of Zhongshan Kingdom were very happy and thought that the king was a good king.

After all, a king who can go to the fields to cultivate in person, and who values ​​farming and mulberry must be a good king.

The ancient leaders of Guizhou really didn't have high requirements for the king and emperor, just don't cheat them.

If you can do something for the people while not cheating the people, then you will be a wise king through the ages and one emperor.

It's a pity that the lower limit of people's desire is so low, but there are still foolish rulers running rampant, while wise rulers are few and far between.

If you are lucky enough to meet someone, of course you should cherish them.

The sound of horseshoes came, and a caravan with dozens of carts came up the official road not far away.

Everyone glanced at it and didn't pay any more attention. After all, Lu Nu's place is located on a major traffic road, and there are too many caravans going south, north, east, and west.

Li Yunze, who was washing his feet, took a few extra glances, "A lot of students have come to Lunu City recently."

Among the caravan, there were some people dressed as scribes mixed in.

The places outside the towns and villages in the Han Dynasty were mostly deep mountains and old forests.

Not only are tigers and leopards infested with groups of poisonous snakes, but there are also many thieves and bandits.

If you travel alone, it is very likely that people will disappear while walking.

Therefore, when going out for a long trip, one must either travel together, or travel with a large team such as a caravan.

"It comes from the great reputation of King Mu."

Zhao Yan patted without a trace, causing everyone to echo in unison.

If you say something casually, someone will praise it, but if you don't have enough city government, you will gradually get lost.

It's a pity that Li Yunze has experienced too many things like this, so he just smiled and stopped talking.

There are indeed more and more students from various factions coming to Zhongshan Kingdom recently.

As for the reason, it is of course a blank paper.

After the appearance of white paper, it quickly became popular among cultural people with its beautiful shape and convenient use.

Compared with the bamboo slips that weigh hundreds of catties, a stack of white paper can record a book.

Every school and faction has a headache for the inheritance of their own schools, the most important of which is to record, preserve, and spread in the form of words.

It was too troublesome to use bamboo slips before, and it was impossible to carry bamboo slips of hundreds or even thousands of catties around, which hindered the development and inheritance of my school.

The appearance of blank paper perfectly solved this problem.

But the problem is, there is too little white paper!

There are even fewer white papers that have been handed out than silk.

There are too many people who want it, but the supply is in short supply. Many people thought of simply looking for it where the blank paper appeared.

It is precisely because of this that many schools that have received the news have arranged for people to come to Zhongshan Country.

"Stop talking about that."

After receiving the reins from the guards, Li Yunze got on his horse and greeted, "Zhao Yan, the students from various factions who have been arranged in Lunu City will gather in the palace tomorrow. I have something to say to them, go back to the palace."

"Here~~~"

The next day, many students from various factions who came to look for the blank paper gathered in the Zhongshan King's Palace in Lunu City.

Here, they met King Zhongshan who is said to have invented white paper.

"Meet the king~~~"

After everyone saw the ceremony, Li Yunze waved his hand, and immediately a servant brought thick white paper and distributed it in front of everyone.

The students looked happy, they did not hesitate to travel to Lunu for this reason.

"Everyone."

Li Yunze's voice was warm, "This thing is called paper, and it was made by this king in my spare time. I know that you all came to Zhongshan Kingdom for this thing, and I would like to give you a special reward."

Everyone was overjoyed. They didn't expect that what they thought was difficult would be done so easily.

King Zhongshan is definitely a virtuous king.

When everyone was waiting to thank them again, Li Yunze changed the subject, "But."

"However, it is not easy to make this thing, and it takes a lot of money."

The students didn't know the craft, so naturally Li Yunze did what he said.

Some clever people already understood what Li Yunze meant, and immediately expressed their willingness to offer money and silk.

"You think this king is a money-grubbing person?" Li Yunze waved his sleeves with displeasure on his face, "This king is a studious person and has admired the knowledge of various schools for a long time. As long as you are willing to share your own schools The book was transcribed and sent to the king, the white paper
Give as much as you want! "

In an era of low productivity, cultural knowledge is monopolized.

As the carrier of cultural knowledge, books are tightly collected, and there is no chance to see them in leisure time.

In other words, Li Yunze is the king, the ruler of a country.

If it were someone else, the students would have been furious.

'Want to steal my knowledge?dream! '

It can be seen from this that the reason why various schools of thought cannot compete with Confucianism, which is well-educated and non-discriminatory, is an important reason why we cherish ourselves.

It's not that their knowledge cannot be shot, the problem is that they must be worthy of the shot.

Although Li Yunze is not the son of heaven, he is still the lord of a country, even though the country only has eight counties.

In Chang'an City, Huang Lao's art and Legalism are now the world, and even Confucianism can't compete with others, let alone other schools of thought.

Now that Li Yunze had this idea, everyone naturally flocked to him, and there was absolutely no reason to refuse.

Not only did he not refuse, but he also wished to take out the essence of his own school so that the king could reuse it.

This is probably an operation similar to "learn literary and martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family".

Li Yunze has a collection habit.

In each world, he will collect some very meaningful things of the times.

In this era when various schools of thought are still blooming brilliantly, it is what Li Yunze wants to collect their cultural works, especially those works that have long been lost and whose names have not even been handed down to future generations.

Among the entire Han Dynasty, the place with the largest collection of books is the Imperial Palace in Chang'an City.

After all, when he first entered Xianyang, all the generals were vying for gold and silk beauties, but only Xiao He was collecting books and albums.

When they were entrusted to Zhongshan Kingdom, Weiyang Palace granted a batch, but compared to the scale of the whole world, the few are not worth mentioning.

As for other things, I have little interest for the time being.

Among other things, it is like a jade seal in the hands of the emperor. This thing must be in the hands of Zu Long to be meaningful to collect. In the hands of other emperors, Li Yunze is not rare.

He only wants the original.

For the hundreds of schools whose competition has reached a brutal level, if they can't compete for Chang'an City, it's not bad to fight for Zhongshan Kingdom.

Students from various schools acted quickly, writing letters to their schools one after another, or simply rushing back to report the matter.

The responses of various schools were also quick. They dragged countless bamboo slips in horse-drawn carts and ox carts, and went to Lu Nuhang with difficulty.

Schools also have to survive.

The prerequisite for survival is that someone needs to use you.

Only when it is reused can more people choose to join in and pass it on.

Otherwise, it will be lost to everyone.

For the inheritance of the school and for the Zhongshan Kingdom, each family has spent their money.

Fortunately, Lunu is not some remote and remote place. It is located in the north like other schools of thought, and it is also an important traffic route.

Therefore, it is not that difficult to travel between various families, and it is even much closer than going to Chang'an.

When Ting Wei Zhang Ou came to Lu Nu, he saw that the official road was full of dense convoys.

There are not only a large number of caravans, but also people from various schools of thought.

Those carriages and ox carts filled with bamboo slips are so densely packed that you can't see the end at a glance.

However, on the left and right sides of the endless official road, there are two completely different scenery.

One is a fenced pasture with rich pastures, and a large number of cattle, sheep and horses are eating grass fodder leisurely.

On the other side, there is an idyllic scenery with drooping tassels about to harvest.

Closer to Lunu City, there is a large smoky blacksmith's shop, and the red fire is extremely conspicuous even if it is far away.

Zhang Ou, who was full of astonishment, turned his head to look at the entourage he admired and asked, "Zhang Tang, what do you think?"

Zhang Ou would have come here a long time ago.

But before he left, a conspiracy broke out in Chang'an City.

Hou Shenping of Piyang intends to rebel, and Zhang Ou, who is a Ting Wei, cannot avoid such a big case.

Moreover, such a case of rebellion by noble princes involved a lot of context, and the trial had to be very cautious, which naturally took a lot of time.

When trying the case, Zhang Ou unexpectedly gained a talent, that is, Zhang Tang, who was an official in Chang'an.

After seeing Zhang Tang's ability, after a little inquiring about him, he heard the story of a filial man and the interrogation of mice, and suddenly felt that he was a talent, so he was recruited immediately.

This time when I came to Zhongshan Country, I also brought it here.

Zhang Tang carefully checked the surrounding environment.

"The crops are plentiful, and the people can feed themselves."

"There are many cattle and sheep, and the people live and work in peace and contentment."

"Business travelers come and go in an endless stream, and commerce and trade are developed."

"The blacksmith shops are contiguous, the fire is soaring, and the supplies are abundant."

"Students come and go countless times, and the culture is prosperous."

Zhang Tang bowed to Zhang Ou, "Your Majesty, I think that the king should have the appearance of a wise king!"
