Chapter 331, Weiman at the table and Mohist’s “Artisan Law”
Chang'an City, football stadium.
Lu Chen, Liu Bang and other princes watched football matches here.
When he saw an athlete kicking a football into the goal frame, Liu Bang excitedly shouted: "Good goal!"
Liu Bang liked Cuju when he was studying abroad in Qi State, and now he likes the more intense football even more. If he hadn't been older, he would have wanted to play on the court.
During the Warring States Period, Cuju had developed rapidly. When Wang Jian and Xiang Yan faced off against Chen Bing in Chen County, Cuju was promoted in the camp in order to let the soldiers consume energy.
When Xu Fan and Meng Tian faced off along the Yellow River, in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the Han army soldiers, they directly changed the rules of Cuju to the rules of modern football. The entire army vigorously promoted football, so Cuju quickly evolved into what it is today. .
After the Han Dynasty conquered the world, football was brought to the people by soldiers in the army and began to be promoted.
Among the Han army, playing football has become a military tradition. There is basically a football match every ten days, and the generals of the Han army also encourage such events. Firstly, football can exercise the physical strength of soldiers. Secondly, football can also exercise the command ability of grassroots officers.
The soldiers' football games also attracted the attention of surrounding residents, and even many wealthy and idle people came to watch.
Large-scale construction projects have always been taboo in the feudal era, especially after the era of the First Emperor. In order to violently build Qin's infrastructure, the people of the world suffered heavy casualties, and the entire world was disgusted with such behavior from top to bottom.
So he reported to the imperial court that he wanted to build a football field on the outskirts of Chang'an City for the people to watch and have fun.
And Xu Fan also agreed with this behavior, civilizing his spirit and barbarizing his body. In the absence of war, the development of sports events can maintain the bravery of the Han people.
So with Xu Fan's support, Li Shiqi recruited thousands of people and used emerging raw materials such as bamboo reinforcement and cement to spend half a year building an open-air football field that could accommodate tens of thousands of spectators.
This requires a lot of manpower and material resources to cut down, prune, transport down the mountain, and transport to the destination. It is not an exaggeration to say that 90% of the cost of building palaces in ancient times was spent on these giant trees.
Xu Fan gave Li Shiqi some of the more successful business experiences of later generations, such as the stores to be built around the football field, commercial advertisements, tickets and other commercial development knowledge.
The most important thing is that compared with other sports events, football is very easy to make a profit. This can be seen from later generations. It is known all over the country that it is bad, but players can still easily earn tens of millions.
Lu Chen said in surprise: "How is this possible? This football stadium is not much worse than a frontier city. How can it be built by a thousand people? According to certain calculations, at least tens of thousands of people will have to work."
Those who have free time to watch football matches in Dahan are generally wealthy people from the middle class or above in Dahan. These people have brought huge economic benefits. The rental prices of hundreds of shops around the football stadium are extremely high, but Still in short supply, the high-cost football stadium has seen hope of repaying its costs.
Li Shiqi was greatly shocked. Sure enough, he still had to find the emperor if he wanted to make money.
"This is a good suggestion." Lu Chen nodded.
Chen Ying said: "It is said that this football field is made of bamboo reinforced concrete. Although the cement is expensive, it requires very little people's effort. It is said that it only took thousands of people to build it."
Liu Bang said with a smile: "Let me tell you something funny. The country of Jizi took in a group of Yan soldiers and generals at the end of the Qin Dynasty. The leader of the generals seemed to be named Weiman. Lord Ji Zhun thought he was a The wise man worshiped Weiman as a doctor, and granted Weiman hundreds of miles of land in the western part of Jizi Kingdom, asking Weiman to guard the western border of Jizi Kingdom.
Liu Bang smiled and said: "This is because there is cement, so there is no need to cut down centuries-old trees. It is said that after the palace in Chang'an City decayed, cement was used to make pillars. The cost of building a palace was saved by 90% compared to before."
The emergence of bamboo reinforced cement directly reduced the cost of building large buildings to the floor price.
After Li Shiqi realized the business opportunities, he also wanted to leave a memorable political achievement in Neishi County.
Lu Chen was not very interested in football matches. He looked at the huge football field and sighed: "Dahan's development is too fast. This football field didn't exist when we came two years ago, but now it has been built so quickly. . If such a huge building was built during the Qin Dynasty, the world would be shocked. "
The larger the buildings in this era, the more they need large giant trees as pillars and beams. However, such century-old giant trees are located in deep mountains and old forests. These giant trees are generally hundreds or even thousands of miles away from their destinations.
After the construction of this football field, it quickly became a place for leisure and enjoyment for big men. There is a football match almost every few days, attracting a large number of spectators.
But now that the Han Dynasty has built such a huge wonder, not many people in the whole world know about it. This is even more miraculous than the ability of this football stadium. You must know that when the original emperor wanted to build the Epang Palace, he had to serve as corvee in Guanzhong before the prisoners from all over the world entered. , caused shock in the world, and was the direct cause of the demise of the Qin Dynasty.
"This football match is good. It can not only exercise physical strength, but also exercise commanding skills. We should promote it after we go back and bring a few football teams here next time." Chen Ying said.
But I didn't expect that this Wei Man was a complete villain. In the past two years, he felt that his strength had been lost, so he expelled Ji Zhun, proclaimed himself the king, made the capital of Wangxian City, and established his own Wei Kingdom. Ji Zhun fled to my country. Peiguo, please help him restore the country.
"What does this have to do with us?" Lu Chen said contemptuously.
A king was actually expelled by the general he took in. This Ji must be a waste.
The princes of the Han Dynasty were deeply influenced by Xu Fan and were extremely pragmatic. He did not think that such a countryless king could bring them any benefits. If he had time to care about Ji Zhun, it would be better to think of ways to expand territory to the north.
Liu Bang said with a smile: "After all, the Kingdom of Jizi is a kingdom that has been around for 800 years. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the country. Its customs are the same as those of the Han people. Men farm and women weave. They are no different from the Han people.
If we use Ji Zhun as an excuse to attack Weiguo, destroy Weiman, and then divide these tribes, we and the Liaodong princes can each have tens of thousands of tribes. These people are all talented people who can farm and weave, not Liaodong. Those savages can compare. "
When Liu Bang said this, Lu Chen's people suddenly became interested and asked: "How many troops does Weiman have? How many people support Ji Zhun in the country?"
Liu Bang said: "Weman's troops are less than one battalion, and there are only a thousand elites, all of whom were brought from Yan."
Speaking of the elites of Yan State, Liu Bang looked disdainful.
For hundreds of years during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the State of Yan had always been a weak state. It was during the period of King Yan Zhao that it became powerful and almost destroyed the State of Qi. But soon the Yan State returned to its original shape. The period of prosperity was so short that the people of the world did not leave the memory of the prosperity of the Yan State.
On the contrary, people all over the world have deep memories of the Yan State taking advantage of the crisis and trying to invade Zhao State, but was brutally beaten by Zhao State's famous general Lian Po led by hundreds of thousands of old men. The invasion battle almost turned into a battle to defend Jidu. The Yan State ended the war by ceding more than a dozen cities.
Not to mention the great war at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Yan State made almost no contribution. Under such circumstances, it was naturally impossible for Liu Bang to look down on the elites of the Yan State such as Wei Man.
He continued: "Because Wei Man wanted to purge the nobles and powerful people of Ji Kingdom, there are many people in the Wei Kingdom who are dissatisfied with him. Once the heavenly soldiers of my Han Dynasty arrive, the whole Wei Kingdom will definitely gain food and follow suit."
Lu Chen nodded and said: "For such a villain to betray his master, I, a big man, really can't keep him. At the meeting of princes, we will ask the emperor for orders to kill villains like Wei Man."
Chang'an City, Jingfu.
Jing Yi looked at his old friend Chen Biao and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that an old guy like you would dare to come to Chang'an City."
Chen Biao said with a smile: "It is still the benevolence of the emperor to let me go, Mrs. Chen. However, I did not come to Chang'an City as a sage this time. I just came to Guanzhong as a white man to visit some old friends."
"But you Jing family haven't planned to establish a vassal state yet? You must know that there are countless good places in the world. If you delay the establishment of a state, you can only create some remote areas."
Jing Yi sighed and said: "This big man is becoming more and more harsh on us, and I have thoughts of leaving." Chen Biao asked with a serious face: "How could it be that such a big thing happened to a certain person, and the emperor didn't even criticize him harshly? Not to mention that you, the Jing family, are still heroes."
Jing Yi threw out the "Mozi Monthly" and said: "It's not the emperor who created the four-hour work system. Can you believe that now a female textile worker in the Han Dynasty has food and accommodation, and also pays 800 yuan every month, just like this emperor?" Still dissatisfied, they think they are squeezing female workers and asking us to implement a four-hour working day. The government is trying to squeeze big businesses like us to death. "
After so many years, even a fool knew the attitude of the Han Dynasty towards the powerful nobles. The big families with a lot of land suppressed them to death, first the nobles of the Qin State, and then the nobles of the Six Kingdoms. The nobles who had ruled this land for three thousand years were almost wiped out by the Han officials, and now they are targeting them again.
Chen Biao was slightly embarrassed. In his country, there was no salary. The female textile workers had to eat and drink. Of course, relatively speaking, their efficiency was not high, and the quality of the silk they weaved was worrying. It could only be used as the cheapest silk products. Sold to the Han military for use as inner armor.
Chen Biao looked at "Mozi Monthly" and said: "The imperial court should promulgate the "Artisan Law" to force all workshops in the world to implement a four-hour work system. Violators will be punished ten times. The "Seven-day Rest System" requires every seven days. Take a day off on Sundays to allow craftsmen to recuperate. According to the Child Protection Act, anyone under the age of sixteen is considered a child. Those who are employed as the head of the workshop will be severely punished. Those over the age of sixty will be severely punished by the workshop and the court. The camp provides workers with supplements so that craftsmen can have a good old life, ~~~~~.”
Chen Biao was stunned and said: "Are the Mo family crazy? If they continue like this, who will dare to open a workshop?"
Jing Yi said worriedly: "In those days, a certain family did not have such a standard for raising scholars. The emperor raised the craftsmen as scholars, but why do we have to pay this price? Now we are required to support the craftsmen in their old age. Will I have to wait in the future? "Educate craftsmen and let them become talents. Why don't these people worship you as their father?"
Chen Biao said: "Does the emperor intend to enforce this proposal of the Mo family, or does it require our consent to be implemented at the sage conference?"
Even though the Sage Conference has been held several times, Jing Yi and others are becoming more and more accustomed to this status, but they still believe that the Sage Conference is the crown jewel above the emperor's head, and they still have to carry out the emperor's will.
But at the same time, they also began to imagine the world after Xu Fan.
Xu Fan was the founder of the country and it was difficult for them to resist, but it is impossible for future kings to have the prestige of Xu Fan. The Association of Sages may not be able to transform from a crowned king into a true uncrowned king.
Jing Yi said distressedly: "The difficulty now is that the emperor only promoted the "Artisan Law" in the "Mozi Monthly" and did not force the workshop owners in the world to implement it. This requires us to vote and get approval from the Council of Sages before it can be implemented."
Chen Biao nodded and said: "This is in line with the emperor's character. Unite the majority to attack a small group. The votes are in our hands. We all voted to implement it. It will not have much to do with the emperor. If we violate it again, We are going to use the entire Han people as our enemy. This is to reduce us to the smallest group of people.”
What worries Jing Yi and the others now is that the emperor seems to have given them a choice, but they dare not go against the emperor's will, and now the public opinion in Guanzhong is extremely unfriendly to them.
Because the imperial examination had just ended, the entire city of Chang'an had the most scholars. These scholars could all be said to be wealthy people in the Han Dynasty, but they were also young people. They were at the age when they were full of energy and full of fantasies about the whole world.
You want them to live in old age and become the second generation of nobles and the second generation of rich people who keep their own integrity and inherit their family's business. These people will look down upon you.
How can a life with the end in sight be as full of ideals as building a world of great harmony? Which one is more worthy of pursuit is simply not a choice for a burly young man.
After the Mohists proposed the "Artisan Law", it caused a huge sensation in the scholars of the Han Dynasty. When the young people saw this law, they were full of excitement and publicized it to the people around them. This is what they should do. Once this law is truly promulgated, the world will How beautiful it will become, I think the world of Datong will soon be realized in their hands.
At this time, Chang'an City was full of scholars holding "Mozi Monthly". They discussed and argued with each other how to make the people of the world live better and how to build a world of great harmony. Tens of thousands of scholars argued fiercely, often making shocking remarks.
Many scholars simply came to the Mohist headquarters, intending to become a member of the Mohist family, contribute to the people of the world, and serve the world of great harmony.
Therefore, the public opinion in Guanzhong at this time was extremely unsupportive of workshop owners such as Jing Yi.
Chen Biao said in shock: "Your Majesty actually instigated your nephew to rebel."
Then he sighed and said: "Such a wild and unconstrained strategy is really something only your Majesty can use."
Chen Biao remembered that when the emperor instigated the Qin army, he immediately led the Qin army that was instigated to annihilate Li You's army. Most of the elites of the Han Dynasty were provided by the Qin army. This kind of thing has been done by the emperor for thousands of years. I can't imagine what would happen if I were an enemy of such a person.
Chen Biao said: "Old friend, I would like to advise you to listen to the Emperor's words. Even if the "Artisan Decree" is promulgated, you will only make less money at most, but if you go against the Emperor, you will be the Emperor's enemy, and those who become the Emperor's enemies will I don’t need to remind you what will happen, I’m afraid you already know it.”
When Jing Yi heard this, he couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the First Emperor's family, the aristocrats of Qin and the powerful nobles of the six countries.
"It's hard for this big man to stay any longer. I'd better ask Tao'er to establish a vassal state as soon as possible. If he stays in his own vassal state, it's hard for the emperor to interfere."
Jing Yi had the mentality that he could not afford to offend or hide, and planned to let his son create a vassal state as soon as possible.
Chang'an City, Prime Minister's Mansion.
Zhou Zhang, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, stared at a huge map of the Han Dynasty and looked at it very carefully.
At this time, two people came in and saluted Zhou Zhang: "Prime Minister."
Zhou Zhang looked at the two of them and said: "Chang Shi, Uncle Jing is here, sit down!"
After Xiao He and Cao Shen sat down.
Zhou Zhang said with a smile: "This year, the governors of various counties in the Han Dynasty have been transferred. Shang Nong, the governor of Chen County, has taken over the position of Da Si Nong. Wang Dao, the governor of Donghai County, will become the governor of Kuaiji County. Unexpectedly, Ye Teng, the governor of Kuaiji County, will become the internal governor. Shi Ling, as a result, the governors of Chen County and Donghai County will be vacant. The truth is that I want you to take over these two counties. "
There are many hills in the Han Dynasty, and Prime Minister Zhou Zhang is the biggest hilltop. He is the leader of the Huang-Lao Sect of Taoism. Among the more than 40 county guards in the Han Dynasty, there are more than ten Huang-Lao Sect, among which Xiao He and Cao Shen are his favorites. the descendants.
Xiao He and Cao Shen were surprised and said: "Thank you, Prime Minister, for the promotion."
Zhou Zhang smiled and said: "You yourself also have this ability, otherwise, the emperor would not recognize this human life."
Then he sighed: "Unknowingly, the Han Dynasty has been established for five years, and the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty has also been serving for five years. During these five years, I have been trembling with fear, but I have finally made some achievements and have lived up to the emperor's trust."
Cao Shen said: "Prime Minister, this is not a small achievement, but a great achievement due to hard work. Without the Prime Minister, there would be no great man like today."
Zhou Zhang waved his hand and said with a smile: "I won't say much more about this. According to the emperor's vision, the position of prime minister is so powerful that anyone can only serve for 10 years. Now that the five-year period has passed, a certain person has only the last term left. ”
Xiao He and Cao Shen both kept silent about this matter. The power of the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty was too great, and Zhou Zhang could make decisions about the affairs of the Han Dynasty with just one word. It can be said that a prime minister with such great power is unprecedented. If Zhou Zhang can really serve his term and retire, it may not be a good story for the emperor and his ministers.
Zhou Zhang said: "When you are alive, you must leave a certain amount of achievements for future generations to remember, so in the next five years, I also plan to build a project to benefit people all over the world."
Xiao He looked at Zhou Zhang in shock.
Governance by doing nothing has always been Zhou Zhang's philosophy. Although inaction does not mean doing nothing, starting a big project like this is obviously not in line with Zhou Zhang's philosophy.
Zhou Zhang said: "Follow the way of heaven, act reasonably, and do something while doing nothing, which is also the way of inaction. The imperial court has accumulated so much money and food, so it is natural to follow the way of heaven, and make up for the deficiency when there is more than enough damage."
