Chapter 136
Back to the Forbidden City.

Wang Chengen could only shake his head when he saw the emperor's unfinished expression, and secretly arranged for someone to record today's events. If necessary in the future, some arrangements should be made. For example, the eldest son of the emperor was born outside the palace...

Yang Reform felt refreshed today, not to mention his physical refreshment, but mentally, he was even more refreshed.

Sun Liniang was in charge of the actual operation, and the "husband and wife" went to cheat the Mongolians out of money. When it came to happiness, Yang Reform ignored the "resistance" of others, and he scored twice.

……

The next morning.

Yang Reform is going to visit the training ground of the new army. The navy has recruited enough people. Yang Reform is going to conduct "military training". First, he will conduct infantry training. out of the navy.

It seems that I haven't been to the Xinjun for a long time. I lost my temper recently, very depressed and decadent, and I don't even want the barrel of a gun.Thinking about it, I'm really a jerk. In the past two days, I have dealt with political affairs and am going to see the new army.No matter what, the relationship between this and the new army cannot be alienated.From now on, when Jin Yiwei can't cut it down, it's time for these people to go up and cut it down.

Wang Chengen came in and said, "Your Majesty, Zheng Huaizhong asks to see you."

Zheng Huaizhong?Did the shipbuilder find this?I remember that I asked him to find the shipbuilder: "Biography." Yang Reform decided to meet him. If so, this is good news!

"Slave Zheng Huaizhong kowtows to see my emperor, long live, long live, long live." Zheng Huaizhong kowtowed respectfully to the emperor.

"Zheng Huaizhong, look at your appearance, you are in good spirits." Yang Reform saw that Zheng Huaizhong's spirit was really good, as if he had taken the medicine to rejuvenate his youth, his face was full of spring breeze, and he was 20 years younger.

"My servant thanked the emperor for his praise. This servant is very happy. It is my honor to be able to serve His Majesty. Of course, I have to do it happily." Zheng Huaizhong's enthusiasm, no matter how hard he tried to hide it, he couldn't hide it.

"Hehe..., why are you looking for me today? Did you find the shipbuilder?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is not about building a ship, but about building a house. I heard from the person in charge of the building that the design and ironing are ready. Please take a look at it." Zheng Huaizhong reported the good news to the emperor full of joy.

The pattern and stamping of the house?what is that?Yang Reform wondered?Build a house?Oh, now that I think about it, isn't it about the Empire Theater?

"Well, that's very good, let's pass it on." Although this matter is not very important, since others are ready, let's meet and don't discourage others' enthusiasm.

……

A group of green-robed officials, led by eunuchs, came to Dongnuan Pavilion.

"We kowtow to see my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Several green-robed officials saluted Yang Reform.

"Well, get up, I heard that the blueprint of your design has been finished, isn't it?" Yang Reform was going to see if it was the enclosed house in his mind.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! I have prepared the patterns and ironing samples of my ministers, and I will wait for the emperor to have a look at them and make a final decision." A leader replied, and several people stood up tremblingly.

The pattern, this, Yang Reform understands, what is the hot pattern?Something like Malatang?

"What is this hot spot? Why haven't I heard of it before!" Yang Reform felt that he still didn't know enough about ancient knowledge. Many things learned in the 21st century had wrong names in ancient times. ,Different.

"Reporting to the emperor, the hot sample is a shrunken real thing, and the shrunken building was specially made for the emperor's viewing." The leading official quickly explained to the emperor what a hot sample is.

Hmm~ Shrunken objects, shrunken buildings?Isn't this a model?architectural model?This...Yang Reform thinks that the ancient people are not stupid!Before you know how to build something, make a model for yourself to see if you like it or not.

"Oh, is that so? Why don't you show it to me soon?" Yang Reform also liked models for a while before, but what he liked was robot models, such as plastic products such as Transformer Gundam and Transformer Robot. Models, take these plastic robots every day, dub these robots, and fight in various battles, uh~!It is a happy primary and secondary school life!Now in the Ming Dynasty, I also met a group of people who played with models. Yang Reform thought that he could make some models of robots, aircraft tanks, and battleships for fun. This will not be done in later generations.Now that he is the emperor in the Ming Dynasty, the resources of the whole country are for his own use, so he can completely live a life of luxury and use the rights of the emperor to enjoy the addiction of owning various models.

The leading green-robed official hurriedly played: "I report to Your Majesty, all the items are stored outside the hall, and please allow your Majesty..." This official is too young, and it is not so easy to give something to the emperor. Obviously, their things were required to be placed outside the temple.If the emperor doesn't like it, don't take it out to make the emperor unhappy.

"Go." Yang Reform had no choice but to urge.

Wang Chengen quickly agreed and directed the little eunuch to move things outside the hall.

After a while, a plate covered with a yellow cloth came in.Yang Reform looked at it, wondering, what is this?Model?Hold it on a plate and cover it with a piece of cloth. It seems that there is nothing so flat. Could it be that the people of the Ming Dynasty have learned to "transform"?After a while, the cloth-covered thing becomes a burly Transformer after several transformations?
I saw the little official said: "Your Majesty, the pattern and stamping pattern have arrived, please have a look at your Majesty." Then, he uncovered the yellow cloth, and there was a flat, neatly folded stuff inside, and the little official went over , picked it up, folded it in threes and folded it in two, and an "architectural model" the size of a foot basin was displayed in front of Yang Reform.

This thing is exactly the same as the enclosed house in Yang Reform's impression.Blue tiles, loess walls, and rafters made of red wood.There are three floors of windows, three sides of the interior are rings, and one side is the stage. This is exactly the image of the grand theater in Yang Reform's mind.

"Good good good good good." Seeing such an exquisite model, Yang Reform had to admire, the wisdom of this ancient people is really superb.

Yang Reform walked to the side of the model and found that the model was almost exactly the same as the real thing. He was very curious and asked, "This thing is so detailed, could it be made in real proportion?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this object is a hot sample, which can be regarded as a miniature of the real object. The size of the construction is marked on it. The internal structure of the object can be seen when the roof is removed. When actually building, you only need to take the Produce this thing and show it to the craftsmen of the building, and they will know how to build it, and it will be exactly the same as this thing, without any difference." The little official tried his best to explain to the emperor what this is called hot shape.While talking, he also took off the "roof" covering it to show the emperor the internal structure.

I rub ~!Yang Reform yelled loudly in his heart, this is a completely realistic architectural model!You can build physical architectural models according to size!In the 21st century, this thing seems to be in the computer, and it can only have this effect with 3D.Yang Reform was shocked, and quickly looked in from the lid that the petty official lifted, and the pillars, rafters, and even the exquisite decorations inside were displayed in front of his eyes one by one. Yang Reform could thoroughly appreciate this three-dimensional The architectural model was stunned.Is this the ancient times of his M?

"Ahem~, this, if it is actually built, how to use these 'hot samples'?" Yang Reform is quite curious about this ancient construction technology.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the royal construction has always produced the pattern first, then the ironing sample, and then wrote the building size. In this way, the three items have been reviewed by the emperor and appointed by the emperor before they are used for manufacturing. When building, you only need to show the ironing sample to the craftsmen , the craftsmen naturally understand the structure, and according to the size and design of the building, each person manages their own piece, and the whole building will be completed soon." This small official explained to the emperor how the royal family made things and how to build them. The use of hot samples.

I wipe!So awesome, Yang Reform was completely surprised by this ancient construction method.Yang Reform has always thought that this ancient building was always built by a craftsman after thinking hard in his head, and then taking it for granted based on experience. There is no "scientific" construction method or "scientific" management method. There is no "scientific" accumulation of experience.But I didn't expect that this ancient man was not a fool, and he was obviously much smarter than I imagined. Others not only had design drawings, but also specific parameters, and even more amazing "[-]D models".

The literacy rate in ancient times was not high. It is obviously difficult for all craftsmen to understand and understand the architectural formulas, architectural principles, and even "standards". There may even be differences in understanding, resulting in different data and styles. Different methods and materials are used. If this is the case, the building will definitely be built in a mess, and the skin will be unclear all day long. At that time, what awaits them is the emperor's knife.

Therefore, the ancients were not stupid, and they just got into this "[-]D model". No matter how uneducated you are, no matter how poor your language is, no matter how different your understanding is, after reading this "[-]D rendering", it is estimated that as long as you are not a fool, you should understand how made.Then compare the schematic diagram with the data, there is no need to explain too much, it is natural to understand how to build, how to choose materials, what materials to use, and what styles to make, so hundreds or thousands of people can be made at the same time Start work, and each manages its own, so that there will be no conflicts.

Yang Reform is now deeply attracted to this model, to the ancient architectural methods, and to this ancient ingenuity.well!Who said ancient people were stupid?Who said the ancients were backward?In ancient times, when there was no computer, "[-]D models" were used to build houses. Whoever said that the ancients were stupid, I would be in a hurry.

The ancients have given Yang Reform too many surprises, and Yang Reform has greatly changed their attitude towards the ancients.

However, this thing is so superb, why doesn't it seem to be mentioned much in the official records!Yang Reform feels that this history book is also a bit of a bullshit.

"This Qing family, when you built, did you actually build it according to this proportion?" Yang Reform looked at the architectural model and asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, yes, when it is built, it will definitely be built according to this size. The actual construction will not be any more, nor will it be any less." The little official explained to the emperor very confidently.

Yang Reform nodded, and picked up the "design drawing" placed next to it, which seemed to be drawn with pencil or hard pen.It's fine, it's beautiful, and it's clean.Yang Reform Dajiong, Yang Reform always believed that in ancient times, there was only one kind of brush, and that was the brush, which was used for writing and drawing. Maps, including military maps, were often drawn with a brush, which looked crooked and very Ugly, even this kind of engineering design drawing requires a brush, so the engineering design drawing should be drawn thickly, crookedly, and in a mess.Unexpectedly, when I saw this real "design drawing", I realized that it was almost the same as the design drawing of later generations.Yang Reform even suspected that someone took the engineering drawings of the 21st century to fool himself, and even the engineering drawings were printed out with a printer.

Yang Reform was very hurt. He seemed to have been underestimating the wisdom of the ancients.I picked up the "Engineering Data" again, and it was densely written about what materials were used for this and that place, how long and how big that place was, what kind of paint was used here, what pattern was there, and even how long the wood needs to be dried in the shade. It is clearly stated that this is much more powerful than the so-called "quality management system" of later generations.

Yang Reform let out a sigh. With such a construction team, is he still afraid that the theater will not be able to be built?Are you afraid of quality problems?It seems that there is no need!
"Yes! Yes, Zheng Huaizhong, I have no objection to this 'hot sample' at all. You can organize people to build it exactly according to this 'hot sample'. The cost is within two to three hundred thousand taels of silver. The address, you can Let's figure it out, these few, I named them the designers and architectural directors of the grand theater, responsible for designing and supervising the construction of this grand theater, this Qing family...is the chief designer..."

Yang Reform quickly decided to build the Imperial Grand Theater according to this "hot model".They appointed those green-robed officials as designers and construction directors, and appointed the leader as a chief designer. Unfortunately, they didn't even know their names.

Wang Chengen hurried over and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this person's surname is Ouyang, and the single character is Xu..."

Ouyang Xu?Yang Reform read his name once, and then hurriedly ended the meeting. Although the construction matter is awesome, it is always a small matter, and there are still big things waiting to be done by him.Those little officials were naturally overjoyed when they received a reward, and they were all grateful.

……

Walking in the Palace Museum, Yang Huaihe looked at the majestic halls and gate towers, and realized that this ancient building was built in this way. He originally thought that a craftsman would build a palace with a single tap of his head. That's not the case!And Zheng He's fleet, the ships are all the more testament to the superb construction technology of this kind of ancient times, the kind of ships that sail in the ocean and fight against the wind and waves, if the design is unreasonable, the construction is unreasonable, The construction and materials used are not standardized, and the management is not standardized. Can it withstand the storm?Can you build these huge ships sailing on the sea based on experience alone?Yang Reform would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.

It seems that building the ship by yourself and handing it over to Zheng Huaizhong and those "rigorous" technocrats seems to be a good idea!Yang Reform felt that his initial decision to use Western technology to build ships was somewhat biased.

……

New army training ground.

After everyone has seen the ceremony.Yang Reformcai and Sun Chengzong walked slowly on the playground and started talking.

"...I see that Your Majesty has cheered up again and regained his former heroic spirit. It is really a blessing to my Ming Dynasty!" Sun Chengzong felt relieved when he saw that Emperor Chongzhen had returned to his former positive state.

"Hehe, Master Sun, I know that I shouldn't get angry, lose my temper, or let go of my burden. Master Sun, don't make fun of me." Talking with Sun Chengzong seemed very casual and sincere.This is a treatment that no one else can have.Even Xu Guangqi, due to the limited days of contact, is not as casual as Sun Chengzong.

"...Hehe, I dare to ask Your Majesty, about the salt lesson?" Sun Chengzong was still worried about the salt lesson, and when he met the emperor, he brought it up again.

Yang Reform thought for a while, and told Sun Chengzong one by one how he planned to cut down the salt merchants and cancel the world's salt tax.

Sun Chengzong didn't express any opinions, and he had been listening to Emperor Chongzhen. After Emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, Sun Chengzong still didn't have any words.

After waiting for a long time, Yang Reform couldn't wait any longer, so he asked, "Master Sun, what do you think of my plan?"

Sun Chengzong thought about it for a long time, his expression did not fluctuate much, and he said in a very calm tone: "Return to your majesty, this matter, in my opinion, your majesty has made up his mind to compete with the salt merchants and salt rats." ? On the whole, the chances of success are great, but this layout is a little thin, and the killing is not decisive enough. If Jinyiwei and Weisuo army alone want to kill salt merchants and salt rats swiftly, I don’t think so.”

"Oh! Then Master Sun, is there anything else you want to add?"

"The veteran thinks that His Majesty still lacks a pro-army that can resolutely carry out His Majesty's intentions, and a pro-army that will not be disturbed by the outside world. This is not the Jinyiwei, nor the guard, nor the Beijing Camp, nor the East Factory."

"So what did Master Sun say?...Could it be that Master Sun said that I still want to use the new army?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, as Your Majesty said, Your Majesty wants to 'cut' those salt merchants and those salt rats. The Jinyiwei, Dongchang, Jingying, and Weisuo are inextricably linked to the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty." The connection? How can this knife cut down? When the time comes, the cuts will continue, and the reason will be chaotic, and it will be out of control! So, Your Majesty is not bold enough."

Yang Reform did not expect that Sun Chengzong, like Xu Guangqi, would be quite supportive of himself, the emperor who cut salt merchants and rats. Could it be that he, like Xu Guangqi, had a deep grudge against the salt class in the Ming Dynasty?Don't have any hope for the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty?Also hope to slash a bloody path?
"Oh? In this way, my plan is unacceptable?"

"No, Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that His Majesty can give it a try. Even if it fails, it will not hurt His Majesty's foundation. At most, it will just throw out a few eunuchs or factory guards to vent their anger. It has nothing to do with Your Majesty. The tax is exactly as His Majesty said, it is only 100 million taels, His Majesty gritted his teeth and paid it out of the internal funds, it is completely feasible."

"What does Master Sun mean?" Yang Reform was confused.

In Sun Chengzong's calm words, he did not intend to persuade the emperor to kill people at all, but told the emperor how to cut people so that he could cut people more perfectly without hurting himself.

"Your Majesty, with the sword, there are people who wield the sword, but there is a lack of a sharpener, and a person who can use a sledgehammer on the back of the sword when the knife cannot be cut. This person is the new army, Your Majesty. The plan is feasible, but you can add a backhand behind it. When Jin Yiwei's knife can't cut it, use this new army to hammer a big hammer on the back of Jin Yiwei. Presumably, no matter how hard the bone is, it will be opened ..."

Yang Reform did not expect that this Sun Chengzong was also a fierce man. What he said could not be seen to be said by a person who was born as a Jinshi. In other words, gentle and kind, but to teach you how to kill people, Yang Reform is ashamed, is it true that all the emperors in history taught this to the emperor?
"Hehe, Master Sun, I think the same way. No, I came to the new army early in the morning to see this person who will be the one who will be the one who will be behind Jin Yiwei in the future. Hehe..."
