Chapter 675
Whether it is Shaoguang, Yuan or equations, they are already existing vocabulary and content. The meaning of equations in Nine Numbers is actually more like a system of equations. Parallel as a row, so it is called an equation". At this time, the existing topics are basically directly related to real life.

It's like saying how many high-grade grains, how many middle-grade grains, and how many low-grade grains, and then give three quantities, and finally ask how many meters are produced in each bundle of the upper, middle, and lower three types of grains.

Whether it is Shaoguang, Yuan or Equation, they are not words created by Sishang, but already existed.

The gentleman flipped through a few pages at random, and the content in the front was still easy to understand, but the content in the latter gradually became more complicated.

"Like Circles and Shaoguang Technique" is mainly about some simple calculation methods such as ellipses and parabolas, because the temporary depth only involves quadratic equations, so it is not very difficult.

The reason why the Mohists were able to come up with "Leiyuan Shaoguangshu" stems from Mozi's research on optics, the problem of irregular concave mirrors derived from the concept of "focus" in the eight methods of optics, and the gradual development in recent years. Wangshan calculations of bronze cannons and crossbow bolts, etc.

"On Gambling" is about simple probability, which is also a question of "the will of heaven contained in gambling" drawn from some popular gambling methods in a simple way.

As for the last book "Elementary Equations and Numbers' Virtual Reality", it can be regarded as the beginning of the one-dimensional cubic equation that has always been difficult to solve. It focuses on the discussion of some numbers that "exist" and "do not exist". For example, Zhu Xia's extremely developed The square root of negative numbers in the problem of square root by writing.

The origin of this kind of problem comes from dialectics and logic. The Mohist school has this foundation, so it is possible to come up with such a strange problem.

Mathematics itself is not a science, but more like a philosophical system.Science itself is not a conclusion, but more like a logical explanation that can be verified and self-consistent.But the former is the foundation of the latter, because geometry and nine numbers will not deceive people, and the rest, whether it is eyes or ears, may deceive people, just like the interpretation of "shadow does not move" when the grass was first produced .

Among the stack of thick books, there is also a letter from Mr. Shujunzi, which briefly introduces some things in Sishang, and the main thing behind it is that "Xiang Xu" will formally accept students starting next year. After being approved, some people don't need to take another assessment and can directly enter Xiangxu to study.

No amount of content was disclosed, but Shu Junzi knew that there should be himself in this list.

In the letter, the husband told her to calculate some nine numbers from time to time so that her hands and brain would not become unfamiliar.

She folded the letter, looked at the few books that were easy to understand at the beginning, probably the content she had learned, but gradually became more profound later, and said with a wry smile: "I don't know if I can finish a book next year."

In another room, several high-ranking Mohists in the cloud were listening to a Mohist from the Gaoliu area talk about something, and many people showed extremely excited expressions on their faces.

"It should be next spring at the latest, and a large number of people will move here. The population in Yunzhong may be the largest, because after all, there is already a small city here, and there is also a certain amount of food."

"Taking advantage of this mid-autumn dinner, the main purpose is to allow the people in Yunzhong to grow as much land as possible next year, especially crops such as potatoes that can satisfy their hunger and survive the first year."

"The top will allocate some money and try not to use some coercive means, but if the benefits are still not enough, then try to mobilize the people as much as possible."

The Mohist who was specially sent here said emphatically: "The cloud is different from the South China Sea. The South China Sea allows large manors to hire people, and even tacitly allows the local Baiyue people to work in it."

"But not in the cloud. The location in the cloud is important, and it is necessary to ensure a sufficient number of self-cultivating farmers and good family members. You can help each other to form a society, but try to avoid the situation of hired farming."

"Yunzhong is not here to make money. If you make money, you can go to the south. Yunzhong is to ensure land and population. As for wealth, it is something that Sishang and the south have to consider."

"On the one hand, there is a lot of wasteland and a small population here. Once hired farming is allowed, it will be really difficult for hired farmers to cultivate their own land. Those who have already benefited from hired farming will not allow the population to leave their land, otherwise the land will be unproductive. out."

"Secondly, here is near the Yin Mountain, and the barbarians often come to plunder. We need enough people to join the army. This is the most important thing."

"We paid this money to prevent people from moving here, but allowing them to become servants or half-slaves of these local people. In that case, there will be deep conflicts in the future."

After a brief explanation of the reason, these people understood the meaning, considered the population and output here, and said: "If all potatoes are planted, [-] people can be migrated to ensure that they will not starve to death next year." If there are more, I'm afraid it won't work."

"This place is far away from the city. Although the Yellow River is close, there are no cities in the upper reaches. The terrain along the river is steep and difficult to transport."

The dispatched humanity said: "It is because of this problem that some people have to migrate to Gaoliu first, and then they can continue to migrate here in the next year. There will be great pressure on both sides, but this matter must be done well, especially for you. It’s about being prepared.”

"If you don't eat, you will die. You really can't get anything from the Hu people. The Hu people don't eat much meat, and most of them live on milk."

"Another one is that in winter, some people from the Gaoliu area will move to prepare for the reclamation in the spring next year."

"Accommodation and heating have to be resolved. It all depends on you."

"After the autumn harvest, I immediately organized people to cut firewood to offset the account of the iron wares, or give money directly. But even if you give money, you have to explain the truth clearly. One is for money, and the other is for righteousness."

"Without money, some people are unwilling to do it."

"Without righteousness, some people are unwilling to do it."

"It will be good to get through this year and next year. Although we have prepared in advance, we can only rely on you. Transportation is not easy, and the price of food transported here will be several times higher. Fortunately, the people in the cloud have a lot of food now. Take advantage of this opportunity , also touch the family property in the cloud."

The Mohists who had been lurking in the Yunzhong area thought for a while and said: "If this is the case, then we can only mobilize the people. It's just... the local Zhao officials in Yunzhong..."

The Mohist who was specially sent here waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about them. They will leave next year. Now tell them directly and clearly that we have the final say here. In a few days, several companies will come here, you don't have to worry. "

"Using appropriate words, we used to be uncrowned kings, but now we have to be crowned kings directly. Change your thinking and attitude when dealing with Zhao's officials. There are some things that don't need to be hidden."

The Mohist who was specially dispatched couldn't help but sighed and said, "If there is such a situation in the Central Plains, things will be much simpler. If you have money, you can buy the food you want, especially in Qilu Weisong and other places."

"But here, it's hard to do things even if you have money. There are no cities in the upstream, so you can't transport along the upstream. If you go downstream, it's impossible to transport it. The twists and turns of the river are the most difficult part to walk."

"But money... If you buy too much, money itself is just an equivalent. Thanks to the fact that we started to deploy here five years ago, at least we can spend the money."

"The higher-ups also know that it is difficult for you to do it, but as a Mohist, whether it is difficult or not is one thing, and whether you can do it is another."

In the past five years, the change in the cloud has been the improvement of productivity. A large amount of ironware has been promoted in the form of first use and then repayment, which has led to the emergence of grain storage and the transaction of money, grain and ironware in the cloud. The large amount of money invested here before, Now is finally the time to use it.

If it is not done well, the entire layout of the Mo family in Zhao will be affected.

The Jiuyuan and Hetao areas above Yunzhong are all good land for farming, especially after the promotion of new planting techniques and new crops, Zhuxia's farming civilization will definitely gain a foothold here.

But everything is difficult at the beginning, and whether the most difficult beginning can be done well depends on the fifty or sixty Mohists here.

At least, now we can only rely on them.

After a brief discussion, the Mohist in Yiyun said: "There is not enough manpower, Gaoliu should send more people?"

I tentatively asked, not only to tell the difficult facts, but also to inquire about the arrangements of these people like myself.

The Mohist who was specially sent over said with a smile: "It's not just Gaoliu. Sishang will also send people. Once Gaoliu's manpower floods into tens of thousands, it won't be enough. Sishang should have made plans earlier."

"By the way, I will read out some temporary personnel arrangements. You may be transferred back to Sishang next summer to study again."

If others hear the word re-learning, they will inevitably feel that there are too many facts in the Mohist school, and there is too much to learn.

But to these people, it is a great joy. Transferring back to study means that they can step into a higher level. Within the existing system of Mohism, study means a future.

They didn't know the entire area controlled by the Mo family in Zhaodi. Many people had received or been notified in advance that they would return to Sishang or Gaoliu to study next year.

After the battle between Qi and Mo this time, the Mo family urgently needs at least twice as many cadres.Huaibei, Hetao Yunzhong, Ju and other places all need a large number of cadres. This can be regarded as an opportunity for some people, and the rapid expansion of the territory also brings the possibility of many people being promoted one step further.

The education system in Sishang can guarantee a large number of "alternate officials", but from "alternate officials" to qualified officials, there are still enough guides, even though many departments before Sishang have two sets of teams, one real and one false. , but when it is actually used, it is still stretched.

These people in the cloud have endured five years of suffering. Although it is beneficial to the hearts of the world, it is impossible for them to have no hope. It is difficult to only preach righteousness without benefit.

These few people couldn't hide the joy in their hearts, so the specially dispatched person took out a small paper and said: "You have been here for a long time, and I have told you some things, now let's talk about your thoughts. Speak freely, just for Can do things well. Didn’t Zimozi say that the most important thing is to do things well. As for the rewards, titles, and powers in the world before, they were all awarded for doing things well, not pure rewards. .”

"Let's talk about it. How can we solve the food problem and the conflicts between the locals and those who moved later..."
