Chapter 154: Furnace Iron Miraculous Skill Ning Mulberry Boiling ([-])
Effective incentives are not only spiritual, but also material.

A vision of a better life can serve as an inspiration, but it should not be too long.

The popularization of ironware is a long process, but the effect is immediate, especially in the period when the well field system has initially disintegrated, and with the ideological changes that have occurred, it will naturally lead to more thinking.

It is suitable to be by the fire, and there are not too many people around who can hear him. It is impossible to gather most of the people who gathered in Niasang.

These people may or may not be likely to discuss with him those seemingly weird issues at this time, but they know what they want and what kind of rewards Mo Zhe can give them.

When these people work together, they can also spread some ideas naturally, and spread them with their understanding and turn them into their prophecies.

I have been in the village for a long time, even though I think I can understand the way of thinking and language of the farmers, but I am not the same person after all.

Transcripted by these people, it will be easier for others to understand.

The lifelike and beautiful future he described, as if he had experienced it himself, was like the strongest wine made in the ink man's workshop, which made everyone present slightly drunk.

The wine that turns the prophecy that everyone around is drunk must sound real.

Shi Shi did not mention the new contradictions in the future, as if the contradictions in the future did not exist at all, so what he said was only part of the truth.

But part of the truth is also fact, so this prophecy sounds immersive.

When everyone was intoxicated, he said slowly: "That will be a matter of months or even years later. Mohist gathers people with benefits, and the benefits of iron tools belong to everyone."

"However, the Mohist also demanded that those who have meritorious deeds should be rewarded, and those who committed crimes should be punished. This credit is actually not for the Mohist, but for all the people in the world. It's just that the people in the world haven't agreed on their law and elected their sage king as the son of heaven. , so the credit will be repaid by the Mohist first."

Everyone knew that the Mohist would not play tricks, and when they heard Shi Shi's words, they all asked: "How is it considered credit? What will be rewarded?"

This was what many people wanted to hear, and the surroundings became quiet again.

He talked about many detailed rules, which were not formulated by him, but by other Mohists.

The methods of rewards and punishments for mohists defending cities and workshops can be used here as well. A group of people who are ahead of the times in organizing skills can formulate various detailed rules without any problem.After Qin Mo entered the Qin Dynasty, those complicated and detailed laws and regulations were another manifestation of the Mohist Workshop and the rules for defending the city.

Spiritual rewards are things that cannot be estimated with the piecework system.

For example, road construction, such as digging mountains at the beginning, etc., can only be rewarded with the piece system after the mines have been completed.And this kind of work that is unlikely to be rewarded by the piece system, the significance of spiritual rewards is great.

The spiritual reward that can be done is nothing more than that after forming a team, whichever is recognized as the best group can be carried by the Mohist in a carriage, and go around Pei County and become famous everywhere.

The Mohists are silently changing the values ​​of Pei County. In addition to being spiritually satisfied, these people who turn around can also get more mating rights than others. More women will gradually like these "labor heroes" and are willing to Use this kind of glory as a kind of weight to weigh the right to mate.

At that time, you can wear red and green on the carriage to make the most of the magnificence at this time.

Not to mention red and green dyes, it is the expensive Byzantine royal purple of later generations, which is also available in the world at this time-Qihou loves purple, and everyone in the country wears it, so it becomes more and more expensive, wasteful and extravagant.Later, someone came up with a way to ask Qihou to pinch his nose and make a disgusted expression when he gets close to those people in purple clothes.This story is a story with a taste, and the Byzantine royal purple happens to be a dye with a taste, because it is extracted from urine, so it is estimated that the expensive purple dye in Qi at this time should also be extracted from urine, otherwise it is impossible to come up with an idea. Think of pinching your nose.

Naturally, I can't do it, but Mo Zhe has gold to buy, and being able to do this will give those people great spiritual satisfaction.

In terms of material, Mohists also have something to reward.

The seeds and rhizomes of new grains that have been planted for three years and can be promoted on a small scale can be given to Shiwu or individual families as material rewards.

Anyway, the seeds are for planting, and they have to be distributed sooner or later. It is better to take advantage of the time when they are fresh and expensive, as a free reward that can be recovered with handicrafts and future taxes.

You can even directly reward some ironware, which should be what everyone wants most.

It's just that ironware is different from those new grain seeds, and there is a problem that must be solved.

Because the new valley was planted by the Mohist, and did not borrow the hands of others.

As for the ironware workshop, the Mohists relied on the people of Pei County to build it. They had just preached the bourgeois enlightenment thought of the labor theory of value, and they relied on the enthusiastic participation of the people of Pei County who half brought their own dry food. This matter is not clear. There will be many troubles in the future.

After thinking for a while, he said, "If many of you are out in the cold winter, none of you can make a fire. Only one of you can make a fire."

He pointed to the bonfire and said with a smile: "Then to make a fire must require a lot of people to hold firewood. So after the bonfire is lit, everyone can keep warm. But the only person who can make a fire asks to be closer to the fire. Isn't it possible?"

Many people thought of the ideas of the Mohists, and said, "If you make it clear before lighting the fire, then of course you can. This is a contract with everyone. He lights the fire in exchange for being close to the fire. But if after lighting the fire, he thinks that the fire is His, that's not right."

"Shi, we have something to say...I'm afraid you mohists don't like it."

Someone glanced at Shi quietly, and whispered: "If we let him approach the fire after the fire is lit, then we are willing. But if everyone disagrees...according to the agreement of Pei County, can we not allow it? "

Shi smiled, nodded, and said: "That's the reason. You are not Mohists. If you can do this, I think it's fine. From the point of view of the agreement, no one said that this is against the law, but It’s just ruthless. Therefore, Mohists must make things clear in advance.”

"Nowadays about mining, isn't it just a matter of explaining it clearly. The mine and the road were all built by you. I'm afraid it would be impossible to build it with people like Mo Zhe. But we also agreed in advance that in the future After the iron is tapped, Mozhe will give priority to satisfying the needs of the township pavilions in Pei County, but other than that, the sales have nothing to do with you."

"At that time, if the rotation of the three rounds of Xiangting has been completed, you will contribute, and Mohist will contribute money. This is the truth that has been made clear before."

Everyone said: "This is natural. You mohist said this in advance, and everyone agreed. Without you, we would have no strength, and we would not be able to make iron."

Seeing that everyone agrees with this seemingly meaningless sentence, Shi also feels relieved.

This is a matter of ownership. According to some principles of the integration of Mohist and Shi, this furnace of iron should belong to Wanmin of Peixian County.

However, do you want to turn Pei County into an independent kingdom, a bound interest group, or even a semi-autonomous region with a much higher standard of living than other places?

What the Mohists want to benefit is the world, not a small Pei County.If you talk about labor ownership and other issues at this time, you will be in great trouble in the future-why do people in Pei County want to help people outside Pei County become rich?Why benefit them?
Why does Lao Tzu sweat so much to build roads and dig mines here, but in the end he has to subsidize people outside Peixian County?
There are not many locals in Pei County among the Mohists, and they are basically outsiders, and they are also a group of people who have no belief in the "difference between states and countries". They only think about the world.

If Pei County is an independent viscount country, then the Mohists are a group of natural "traitors". They run Pei County Xingyi Pei County just to benefit the world, and it happens that the world includes Pei County.

In a sense, the interests of Mohists who benefit the world and the people of Pei County will conflict with each other in the future.

It is necessary to make sure that some fallacies that he does not like are figured out in advance, because the people of Pei County are not Mohists, and they cannot be asked to benefit the world.

Once the private-acre system is reformed, there will be a large number of self-cultivating farmers and vast wastelands. It is impossible for them to think of the principle of benefiting the world. On the contrary, they may be more willing to reclaim some land.

After all, self-cultivating farmers are the cornerstone of the imperial system. They love an enlightened monarch, and in the future they will be better than a group of Mohists who want to benefit the world.

For the time being, everyone seems to be happy and happy, but in fact they are just walking along the same road. How to go on this road is a problem that Mohist must consider now.

It seems that the only way to take advantage of the contradictions among nobles, mine fields, and serfs is to seize power with the slogan of aristocrats and system changes before countries complete their reforms.

Once the reforms in various countries are completed, the Mohists will lose a large part of their supporters.But without spreading technology, it is impossible to create more emerging landlords, emerging nobles, and craftsmen in various countries, as fellow travelers who will seize power in the future.

The speed of this, in this matter that seems to be just an innovation in iron smelting technology, it is also necessary to prepare in advance and maintain communication with Wanmin in Peixian County at any time.

How to make the people feel that the iron is the fruit of their labor to stimulate enthusiasm; how to make the people think that the ownership of the iron furnace belongs to the Mohist as a matter of course... This is a difficult problem to solve.

I feel that some things really have to be done in advance.

As for three to five years later, after weighing the pros and cons, I felt that I would rather not have that enthusiasm, but also have to hold on to the ownership.

He really couldn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds, so he had to repeat the original agreement and contract over and over again.

Fortunately, this thing is still very fresh, and the people in Peiyi still believe it.
