Chapter 716: Begin To Implement And Implement Various Plans One By One [Please Subscribe, Please Sub
It was early May in the 16th year of Hongwu.
He copied a copy of the "Construction Plan for the Construction of Haizhou City" from Zhou Wang Zhu Ju, and then carefully selected seven subordinate officials from his palace staff to follow him to Zhizhou, and finally After learning as much as possible about the details of the governorship he was about to take office.
Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Gang, Zhu Di and other princes once again were regarded as kings by Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang because they stepped with their left foot first, then their right foot, first with their left hand, first with their right hand, etc. during a court meeting. Disgraceful in the past.
Then he was demoted from the capital, and once again patrolled the world in plainclothes on behalf of the emperor. He was not allowed to return without an edict.
Regarding this, the entire court was silent, and no one from the civil and military officials of the court stood up to advise.
After all, the same thing had happened three times in the past. Even the stupidest minister could understand that Zhu Yuanzhang and his son were playing ten new games.
As for this kind of game, if it were played once or twice, a group of civil and military officials would be willing to participate.
But after two or three times, all the civil and military officials were no longer willing to participate.
Rather than participating in this "game" where both parties know that it is a process, it is better to spend time discussing other policy systems.
After spending nearly a month and going through various large and small ministry meetings and court meetings, many matters involved before.
For example, the "First Five-year Road Traffic Construction Plan for the Ming Dynasty", the "Plan for the Transfer of Veteran Soldiers to Large Logistics Teams for the Next Year", the "Plan for Establishing a Complete Economic Industrial Chain between State-owned Supply and State-owned Sales" and so on.
Now, we have finally come up with a generally feasible plan and started to implement and implement it one by one.
Fujian, Jianning Prefecture, "060" Chong'an County, Leping Town, Qingsha Township, Xiahe Village.
"Master Liu, this is Xiahe Village."
The little official responsible for guiding the way said to Liu Zizhuang in the carriage with some respect.
"Good work."
Liu Zizhuang also gave a slight salute to the young official.
After receiving the task of "Educating the World" from the Wanmin Literary Academy, he also chose to take a special long-distance carriage arranged by the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court and go directly to the place where he wanted to educate.
After more than half a month of transferring buses between provinces, prefectures, states, and counties, he finally arrived at the place where he would stay for the next year, or even two years.
"This is the village chief of Xiahe Village. He will be responsible for arranging where you will live and teach."
The clerk introduced the old man next to Liu Zizhuang.
"Hello, village chief, Xiaosheng Liu Zizhuang!"
Liu Zizhuang also bowed his hands slightly and saluted the village chief of Xiahe Village.
"Hey, it can't be done! It can't be done!"
The old man waved his hands repeatedly, not daring to accept a salute.
After seeing Liu Zizhuang and the village chief of Xiahe Village getting to know each other, the clerk once again raised his hands and saluted:
"I will take other adults to other villages. Please excuse me and leave first!"
Liu Zizhuang also saluted and thanked the junior official again. After the junior official returned the same salute, he continued to drive the carriage and took the other scholars and nobles on the carriage to the next village.
After the clerk drove the carriage away, the village chief looked at Liu Zizhuang respectfully and said:
"My lord, please follow the old man this way."
Liu Zizhuang shook his head repeatedly and said:
"I don't dare to be called an adult. Next, I will be responsible for teaching the people of Xiahe Village how to read and write. If the village chief doesn't mind, just call me Master."
The village chief nodded immediately and responded:
"Okay, Master Liu."
Then the village chief took Liu Zizhuang to where he lived. At the same time, he saw that Liu Zizhuang was not the kind of high-ranking literary star, and gradually more and more people said:
"Hey, Master, I heard from people in the county that the imperial court wants to teach us three hundred Chinese characters and two thousand Chinese characters. Is this difficult to learn?"
"We are all ordinary farmers, not literary stars like you, Master, who have descended to earth. Will we be able to learn from this?!!"
"And I heard that this study is also related to the number of potatoes distributed to us next year!"
"It is said that if you can learn those 300 Chinese characters, you will be given a potato seed for free."
"If we can learn those two thousand or so Chinese characters, then give us a free seed.
"Is this true?!!"
"The potatoes planted this spring at [Wanmin Chong'an Agricultural College] in our county will be harvested again soon."
"I wonder if this harvest will continue to exceed thirty dan. Last year's autumn harvest exceeded 30 dan!"
"It is said that the Agricultural College in the next county only has twenty-eight stones. Hehe, it is not as many as the Agricultural College in our county."
"It is said that the potatoes harvested by the county agricultural college will be distributed to us next year. With so many people in our county, we don't know if they will be enough."
Liu Zizhuang, who was following the village chief, also listened and chose what he knew to answer:
"The imperial court asked me to teach you three hundred core Chinese characters and two thousand important Chinese characters. This is not difficult to learn. Children as young as five or six can learn it."
"This study is indeed related to the number of potato seeds that will be distributed to you next year. Next year, the imperial court will come down to School Disciple to inspect your study status.
"At that time, people sent by the imperial court will randomly select some words from the 2,300 core important Chinese characters and let you read them out, or write them out silently."
“If you pass the assessment of three hundred core Chinese characters, you can take away one potato seed on the spot; if you pass the assessment of two thousand important Chinese characters, you can take away ten potato seeds on the spot.
"As for the potatoes grown in the agricultural college in your county, I don't know whether they are going to be distributed to you."
"But it is said that the imperial court has billions of catties of potatoes in reserve, which is enough for all the people in the world to share ten of them."
Xiahe Village is not big. As the two of them were chatting and walking, they soon arrived in front of a small private school that had obviously been carefully organized.
“This was an empty house in our village, and we packed it up.
"The side room on the left is the classroom. The blackboard that the county asked us to make ourselves is hung on it, and the chalk issued by the county is also placed on the desk."
"For those children who don't have to work in the village during the day, we will let them come and learn to read and write with you, Master."
"The wing on the right is temporarily empty. Master, you can decide its use on your own."
"The back is where you rest, Master. We may have prepared a relatively simple one. If Master, you are not used to it, you can buy a new one.
The village chief introduced Liu Zizhuang while leading him around the house.
Liu Zizhuang frowned slightly as he looked at the place where he would live and teach. This environment was indeed a bit crude for him.
Although for those scholars who have received the task of "Educating the World", the imperial court will provide them with certain subsidies.
However, this part of the subsidy can only ensure that they have no worries about daily food and clothing. If they want to eat better and wear better clothes, they have to pay for it themselves.
But fortunately, before coming, they had some expectations about the situations they might encounter.
Therefore, it is not unacceptable to the situation before us.
After looking at the place where he lived, the village chief continued to take Liu Zizhuang towards the village square and said at the same time:
"Everyone is busy with farm work during the day and has no time to study."
"In addition, the classroom in that room is relatively small and cannot accommodate so many of us."
"So at night we will light a torch in the village square, and then I will ask my mother to teach us the core Chinese characters and the two thousand important Chinese characters in the square."
Liu Zizhuang took a look and saw that the village square was empty. Except for a large blackboard that seemed to be prepared for him, he saw nothing else. He couldn't help but ask:
“There are no tables or chairs in the square, not even a sand table, how can you study?!”
The previous small private school classroom was at least equipped with corresponding tables and chairs, and the table still had two layers of boards.
The board on the top is a small blackboard, and you can use chalk to write on it.
The bottom layer of boards is a small sandbox on which you can use wooden boards to write on.
But now there is nothing on the square. He can't talk from the top and the villagers just listen below, right?!!
How do you learn this?!!
The village chief smiled and said:
"Because the square is useful during the day, sometimes things need to be dried, and it rains, and tables and chairs in the square are easy to get damaged, so I let them take them back to their homes."
"When the Master was giving lectures in the evening, they would bring their own tables and chairs from home, and after the Master had finished speaking, they would take them back."
Liu Zizhuang looked puzzled and said:
“Aren’t those tables and chairs heavy?!!”
"Wouldn't it be tiring to bring it here and back again?!!"
The village chief shook his head and said with disdain:
"Those tables and chairs are all made of wood, and they weigh less than a load of water!!!"
"Children will not feel tired even if they have to go back and forth between tables and chairs!!!"
Liu Zizhuang remained silent…………
Finally, the village chief looked at Liu Zizhuang and said:
"Master, when you are ready, I will ask the little brats in the village to study with you during the day, and we adults will study with you in the square at night!!!"
Liu Zizhuang nodded to express his understanding.
In addition to Liu Zizhuang, Brother Wang, whom he met before, and more than 7,000 other scholars and scholars who also received the task of "Educating the World".
Now, just like him, he went to various provinces, prefectures, prefectures, counties, townships, towns, and villages under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, and began to teach the people of the Ming Dynasty to learn three hundred core Chinese characters and two thousand important Chinese characters.
Shanxi, Datong County, one of the briquette production bases selected by the national court.
The local magistrate, with the assistance of craftsmen sent by the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court, found out the storage location of the relevant coal, and then started to establish the "Datong Briquette Briquette Production Enterprise of the Ming Dynasty" in accordance with the guidance of the "Construction Manual of the Daming Briquette Production Enterprise" issued by the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Imperial Court. manufacturer.
At the same time, recruitment notices began to be posted, and a fat and a skinny subordinate were sent out to greet them loudly below the notice:
"We in Datong County must establish the [Daming Datong Briquette Production Enterprise] in accordance with the requirements of the national court. We need to hire a large number of workers and people to be responsible for digging coal, transporting coal, mixing coal, drying coal, making briquettes, etc.!!!"
"Anyone, regardless of age or gender, can come and apply for a job. You can come and go freely during the period, and the wages will be paid on the same day!!!"
As soon as the subordinate's words came out, a large group of people came around and asked eagerly:
"Is it really employment, not forced labor?!!"
“Is it okay regardless of gender or age?!!”
"How much is the salary?!!"
"Can you really come when you want and leave when you want?!!"
"wage
Is it really the same day?!!”
However, in a short period of time, hundreds of people surrounded the two fat and thin subordinate officials who posted the notice.
Facing the surging crowd, the two fat and thin subordinates could only climb to the notice board and replied loudly:
"It doesn't matter whether you're male or female, old or young, but the old one can't be over fifty years old, and the young one can't be under ten years old!!!"
"Different workstations have different wages. The more tiring the workstation, the more the wages will be paid. The less tiring workstations will receive relatively less wages!!!"
“Come when you want and leave when you want!!!”
"One day's work, one day's wages!!!"
"The imperial court will send high officials to supervise us. If we stop you and refuse to let you go, or if we don't pay you for your work that day!!!"
"You can go to the high official at any time and sue our magistrate 1.6!!!"
"When the time comes, he will even lose his hat if he is kept safe!!!"
The fatter subordinate officer unceremoniously used his official title of magistrate as a guarantee.
Then another thinner subordinate also said loudly:
"If you are interested, you can come to my place and sign up later!!!"
“Don’t worry about running out of places, we will recruit at least several thousand people!!!
After hearing this, the people below suddenly became even more anxious.
Although there are thousands of places, there are tens of thousands of people in Datong County as a whole.
What if you register late and lose their share?!!
Thinking of this, the people surrounding them all opened their mouths to sign up and said:
"In Niujia Village, Tian Dajiao wants to sign up!!!"
"In my Zhaojia Village, Zhao Ershu wants to register five names for my family!!!"
"And Zhang San from Xiapo Village also wants to register four names for my family!!!"
The people around were signing up, and the two fat and thin subordinates sitting on the notice board were also taking notes.
Except for the case in Datong, Shanxi, all the local magistrates with coal storage that were previously pointed out by Yan Changqing.
After discovering where the coal was stored, they set up briquette production enterprises one after another in accordance with the imperial court's requirements and began to recruit workers and civilians to produce briquettes.
