Taimiao.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Liu Xie laughed.
He hasn't felt this way for a long time.
Or rather, he hadn't seen Cao Cao get defeated for a long time.
Liu Xie's current state does not match his plan. Liu Xie held a celebration, but in fact it was similar to that of the non-operation. Registration of household registration was something Liu Xie wanted, but he could not ask for it now. Because once he said that he wanted to register household registration and investigate hidden households, it means that he would stand opposite to the local gentry, which was contrary to his original plan to win over local gentry to fight Cao Cao.
Cao Cao easily disturbed his carefully planned strategy. Will Liu Xie accept it calmly?
In fact, those who have a little understanding of history will know that only relying on the people, that is, the grassroots people, is the foundation of a dynasty. When the wishes of the emperor or the upper-level rulers are consistent with those of the grassroots people, the energy bursting out of the entire society is amazing, but the problem is here, and this consistency is often difficult to maintain.
Not all emperors, or upper-class rulers, are willing to keep abreast of ordinary grassroots people. They don’t eat together when they don’t eat, and don’t wear together when they don’t wear them. When the emperor or upper-class rulers cannot control their desires and want to enjoy something better, greed will naturally separate them from ordinary grassroots people.
Therefore, Liu Xie believed that his "citizen" could only be at the level of a gentry, and he was thinking about it, but he couldn't think of it.
Moreover, in Liu Xie's mind, he still had some hope. He escaped from such a bad Western Liang military chaos and fought a bloody path under the siege of Dong Zhuo, Li Guo and others. Now, no matter what, it is much better than before. Some officials in the court gradually tend to favor him, which is all a good thing.
This is all done step by step by step, saying that he has no pride at all. In order to avoid some fraud, he really has no way to deal with Cao Cao now. Once he can really deal with Cao Cao one day, will the world be in control immediately?
Liu Xie also knew that to do this, he had many things to do, prepared, and planned. These things were not urgent. The more urgent the more he was, the more he might be messy. Just like his celebration this time, the content of the farming and sericulture affairs in the second half was actually Liu Xie's temporary change of his mind, so it would inevitably seem unsatisfactory.
This is an objective problem, but it does not mean that Liu Xie can objectively recognize that he was put on by Cao Cao.
Therefore, Liu Xie carefully thought about it. The reason why he was caught by Cao Cao was because his contact with the gentry was not enough, so he naturally could not achieve better results in the first time. However, this also took a certain amount of time, so he could also make arrangements within the subsequent time until...
However, in the process of establishing mutual trust and communication with local gentry, isn’t it just right for the Cavalry to check and balance the Prime Minister? Now seeing Wang Chang defeated Cao Cao’s plan and disrupted Cao Cao’s arrangements, Liu Xie was somewhat in a state of mind that he could not help but have some thoughts of seeing Cao Cao’s jokes.
Ha ha ha ha……
It’s not that he couldn’t help but laugh, Liu Xie wouldn’t laugh, after all, he could be considered a person who has a deeper understanding of the profession of the emperor. However, when Liu Xie recalled the situation where Cao Cao’s face was finally unable to hold on to the collapse of the hall, he couldn’t help laughing again, and laughed in the Taimiao that he had to hold the incense table to stand firm.
But after laughing happily for a while, Liu Xie suddenly felt like something was holding the pause button down, and suddenly got stuck there, and his expression began to change a little.
Because Liu Xie remembered Cao Cao's embarrassment and embarrassment at that time, and also remembered the vague words that Cao Cao said when he left the hall: "There are so many handsome talents under the command of the cavalry..."
…Σ(дlll)…
Xun Yu's home.
Guo Jia's eyes flashed, as if he had thought of something, but he didn't say it immediately.
"Wang Wenshu is right." Xun Yu said slowly.
A wise man will make a mistake if he has a thousand thoughts.
Even Brother Zhu, written by Mr. Luo, wasn’t it opened by Wei Yan?
Guo Jia nodded slowly, but still said nothing.
After Wang Chang expressed the problem of measurement, Xun Yu almost immediately organized craftsmen to conduct verification and found that this was true. Not only was the measurement tools adopted in Shandong inconsistent with Guanzhong, but there were even some errors in the measurement tools between different craftsmen.
After all, in this era, these measurement tools were all handmade products, not made on a large scale by machines. In addition, daily wear and tear, there were some errors, which was reasonable, but these errors caused various problems in gunpowder ratio.
『I can't figure it out..." Xun Yu said slowly, 『I can't figure it out..."
"You can't figure it out, you can't figure it out..." Guo Jia said, "I want to drink, do you want to have a drink too?"
For Xun Yu, he really never expected that Wang Chang would really "share" these matters about gunpowder. He had imagined many things, but basically like other strategists, and felt that Wang Chang would most likely deny delays, and then they could force Wang Chang to a dead end step by step. However, Wang Chang's method of breaking the situation was so direct that Xun Yu and others caught him off guard and could not understand it.
Could it be that Wang Chang was not worried about being punished by the cavalry after he went back?
What is so important about gunpowder, and its mystery and skills, is it just said?
If Wang Chang didn’t talk about measurement, how long would it take for Shandong craftsmen to understand the difference in measurement?
It's hard to say.
But at least in this way, Xun Yu and others will know the problem and start to improve...
etc.
Xun Yu suddenly turned around and looked at Guo Jia.
Guo Jia raised his eyebrows and smiled bitterly, "You only think of it now?"
Xun Yu was silent for a moment and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Guo Jia stretched out his hand and pointed in the air, "This is the essence... It's like a blind man touching an elephant, and he holds his own words. Which one is the truth? Do you think this is measurement? This is unity! Unification! Can you use it? Do you dare to use it? Even if you dare, do other people dare?! Ahhahahahahahaha...'
Guo Jia is right.
Why did Qin Shihuang clearly defeat the six countries but still unable to effectively control the six countries? A big reason is that the six countries have become accustomed to their original set of things, whether it is coins or measurements. When Qin forced the transformation and unification, some intentional and unintentional people turned good things into bad things.
Just like in the feudal dynasty, it is obvious that the court’s disaster relief was a good thing, but someone could make money by using disaster relief, and then turn good things into bad things, and then more disasters were generated...
Therefore, it is actually quite difficult to implement the whole set of things implemented in Shandong. Imagine that in the later generations, if there is a call from the north to the south, if something happens, it is necessary to send officials from the court to the scene to supervise it to a limited extent. Not to mention that in the current Han Dynasty, if you want to rely on a few laws and regulations or issue a few notices, it can be like some games, indicating that the country has been successfully implemented, which is completely impossible.
The problem is here.
But what if, Shandong has adopted the Guanzhong standard?
What if Shandong had already become the shape of a cavalry before it came to Shandong?
Will it become very lubricated when rubbing?
This is more explosive than gunpowder.
Gunpowder may be able to collapse a city wall or several city gates, but if these Guanzhong measurement standards and various systems continue to operate in Shandong, it will not only collapse the city wall or city gate.
So, the cavalry doesn't care...
As a person who has been with the cavalry for a long time and has been influenced by the Western Shangshu Deck, Wang Chang also understands this.
What Guanzhong wants is long-term "unification", not temporary "submission".
The blind man touched the elephant, he did touch something, but is the elephant really the same way he touched it?
Xun Yu figured this out, and then he sighed deeply.
After meeting the cavalry, Xun Yu found that he seemed to sigh more times in a year than in the first ten or twenty years.
"No matter what, it is also a good thing to know the key to gunpowder measurement this time." Xun Yu said slowly, not knowing whether it was for him or for Guo Jia to listen to.
Guo Jia sat aside and heard Xun Yu's words, but shook his head, "No, no! Do you think it's a good thing? You really underestimate those people... I ask you, this gunpowder has been passed down to Shandong. There are not tens of thousands of craftsmen in Shandong, but at least there are thousands of them? Do you think none of them have found any problem in measuring gunpowder? If not, then why isn't there? If there is...hehehehe, then why hasn't anyone said it yet?"
Xun Yu fell silent.
Guo Jia laughed haha, but the laughter was a little bit dry, "So, the cavalry is not afraid at all...he is not afraid..."
The cold wind on the winter night was howling and sweeping, as if there was a huge monster in the sky breathing, and as if it was laughing at it...
Xun Yu stood up and walked out silently.
"Uh, where are you going?" Guo Jia asked.
Xun Yu stopped and lowered his head slightly. The ray of the irritated wind lamp shone on his face, and it was light and dark. "Since I know that the cavalry is not afraid, I will be afraid of what the cavalry is! Isn't the heroes in the world alone?
After saying that, Xun Yu walked forward and walked towards the darkness.
Xun Yu has a tall figure and steady steps.
"Uh(⊙o⊙)…" Guo Jia widened his eyes, and seemed to say hello, or wanted to say something, but after a moment, he put down his hand, shook his head and sighed, then stood up, tightened his belt at will, shook his sleeves, and followed Xun Yu's footsteps.
After a while, Guo Jia came back, grabbed the wine gourd that had been forgotten on the floor, and then turned around and left again.
…(⊙⊙)…
Inn.
"Prepare, we are leaving." Wang Chang ordered, "This is Prime Minister Cao's warning... Next time, it may not be limited to theory..."
Cao Cao is chasing Wang Chang.
Cao Cao was not even at ease with the generals around him, so how could he feel that Wang Chang would continue to stay in Xu County?
What if Wang Chang abducted the emperor who had originally had some idea of ​​getting out of the wall?
After all, I have been raising cabbage for a while.
Even Cao Cao knew that Fei Qian might not welcome the emperor, but what if?
Wang Chang knew this very well.
The celebration held by the emperor was over, and they had no reason to continue in Xu County.
It’s just that people are coaxed and ridiculed and go back in shame, or go back under the skin of Shandong people, so there is naturally a little difference.
"Empress, will you announce the gunpowder secretly to the public?..." Wang He said hesitantly. He was a little worried when he heard about this. "If the cavalry is not happy..."
Wang He came to assist Wang Chang, so of course he was unwilling to bear the same responsibilities as Wang Chang.
Not everyone is a warrior, and not everyone wants to have heavy responsibilities on their shoulders.
Wang Chang felt that Wang He might not think that he was going to stand up. After all, if the envoy was embarrassed or something, it had no big connection with Wang He. Anyway, it was Wang Chang, and Wang He was just here to serve as a staff officer and assistant. But if the cavalry got angry, he didn't care what Wang Chang would do after he returned, but he cared whether he would be implicated because of this, so Wang He was very worried.
Wang Chang looked at Wang He and smiled and said, "I will record this matter in detail. It was done by me alone and it has nothing to do with you two..."
Wang He waved his hands repeatedly and smiled awkwardly: "I'm here, I don't mean this..."
Wang He looked at Wang Chang, with some helplessness and pain in his eyes, "I'm... I have a family, and I have to raise my old and young people. If... I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
If Wang He was ten years younger, or had not yet started a family, then Wang He might not feel worried, and he might even join in and build a big one, but he can't do it now, and he needs to support his family. If something happens to him, his family will collapse. The so-called pillar of the family is by no means just a talk.
Wang Chang nodded and said seriously: "Although I dare not say that I am 100% sure, I probably still have it... This matter cannot be said to be the same as the cavalry, so you don't need to worry."
Wang Chang's position was higher than Wang He and others, so of course he saw a little further and more. For Wang Chang, the position he had for the time being was not important. What was important was whether he could keep up with the pace of the cavalry. This was what Wang Chang thought was the most important thing.
During this time when he was in Shandong, Wang Chang discovered a very interesting question, that is, after these Shandong people received the support of the Agricultural Bachelor of Engineering and Bachelor of Engineering from the Cavalry, why did these Shandong people still not keep up with the speed of Guanzhong in agriculture, water conservancy, and other aspects, and even maintain their original state?
Is it because the cavalry has hidden his secrets in the technology of these bachelor's and bachelor's of agriculture and engineering?
According to Wang Chang's knowledge, there was no, and not only Fei Qian's bachelor of agriculture and engineering, but also Shandong sent people to Guanzhong to learn some or collect folk songs. Just like Dong Yu, they sent back what they saw and heard to Shandong. These people would definitely not deliberately conceal or deceived them, but why did there still not much change?
The farmer still wants to go down to the fields naked and plow the fields, and still uses original equipment to work hard to turn over the soil. He has the latest technology and the latest equipment, but he still uses old tools and old methods?
After Wang Chang arrived in Xu County, he met the children of Shandong gentry in Xu County and attended the banquet, and gradually realized that it was not that the children of Shandong gentry did not accept these new technologies and methods of the cavalry, but that basically all Shandong gentry children regarded these things as a means of making a fortune!
Although Wang Chang did not know the definition of the word monopoly, he realized this problem.
These Shandong gentry children only want to make money by themselves, and never thought of promoting these technologies to benefit more people!
The children of Shandong gentry were like guarding against thieves, guarding against ordinary people, controlling tenants and farmers, and carefully counting every wallet and every penny of these lower-class people. They wanted to empty all the wallets of everyone in their family and deprive all their wealth. How could they let these ordinary people use new technologies and new tools?
These people in Shandong were emptied their wallets and naturally could not afford new tools. Then they found ways to let these farmers rent them and set high rental fees, which were often the same as those for twenty or thirty years, so that these people would tie them to the land. Every day they opened their eyes to work, otherwise they would not be able to pay the rental fees and would be driven out of their homes and become refugees!
In this case, what motivation do these people in Shandong have to develop and innovate?
They are not available.
People are busy with their livelihoods and are very difficult to live. How can they innovate and develop?
At the level of the children of Shandong gentry, they can already use this model to gain a lot of wealth and deprive a lot of surplus value. Their belly is three points higher than that of pregnant women. What will they have to think hard and innovate? They are like dogs. No matter what the cavalry throws, they will pounce on them viciously, protect them, and then threaten everyone who dares to get close to them to ensure that they can enjoy these benefits exclusively, generation after generation.
They are not available either.
The children of the gentry were busy enjoying themselves, and the enjoyment places in Xu County were opened one after another, including Anpingfang and Taikangli. They were very busy with big heads and small heads. Who had time to think about any technological expansion?
"Let's go," Wang Chang exhaled, "If you stay in this place for a long time... I will feel decay..."
Everyone around him nodded.
Chapter completed!
