Chapter 108 Gou Rixin and the whetstone

When the country is bad, it will be difficult for individuals to live happily.

The so-called good country is to reduce the difficulty of people's happiness to a certain extent, so that more people can achieve happiness.

Yun Zhao's previous poverty alleviation work was this model, helping people to gain happiness.

Today's people in Lantian County are not living well.

That is, there is gruel to drink every day, and there is a bed or a big kang to sleep on at night.

In Yun Zhao's opinion, this is far from enough, but in the eyes of Lantian people, it is already a good life.

A lot of the time, happiness is contrasting.

The appearance of those who were blocked outside Lantian County by Yun Zhao's decree was probably known to the people in the county.

Therefore, being forced to work every day by the small county order, there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.

The Yun family has too much money.

Whether it is the income from Yun Zhao's robbery or the money obtained from Hong Chengchou, there are too many, plus Zhang Tianxiong has recently sent some Tuyi King Kong Crisp from time to time, and the money in the Yun family's treasury has naturally increased.

In fact, the water conservancy project built last year was still a little sloppy, and the construction of the main trunk was basically completed, while the construction of the most important canal for farmland did not meet Yunzhao's design.

So, when the autumn grain was put into the field, the people of Lantian County began to rectify the water conservancy project again.

This time there was no food, only a small amount of money.

The people have seen the benefits of the water conservancy project, so the difficulty of mobilizing the people to repair the canal has been greatly reduced this year.

As long as you are from Lantian County, when you see a construction site, you will spontaneously bring hoes, shovels, wheelbarrows and other things to join the labor.

Yun Zhao didn't want the people of Lantian County to be idle.

People can't be idle, once they are idle, they will have all kinds of things, and they will squeeze all their energy out every day, and they will not have the heart to think about other things.

The construction of Yushan Academy is still in full swing, and the people who built Yushan Academy are either craftsmen recruited by Lantian County at a great price, or people who are freed by the Yun family in the mouth of Qinling Mountain.

By the time it was August, a quaint Yushan Academy had already appeared in front of Yun Zhao.

The completed Yushan Academy is far from splendid, and the reason why it looks quaint is entirely because of the use of a large amount of wood and locally sourced stones.

It's more like a fortress of war than like a academy.

Xu Yuanshou and the other eight gentlemen were extremely satisfied with this new academy, but they were full of questions about how Yun Zhao built the academy so big.

"I built it according to the capacity of 5,000 students."

Yun Zhao finished reading the academy, and he looked a little ambitious.

"We only have more than 500 students, and we can't teach any more."

Zhang Xianliang is very dissatisfied with Yun Zhao's attitude towards studying, it has been three months since the school started here, and Yun Zhao's class time is not even ten days.

"This place has been built, doesn't Mr. Zhang have a few friends who are hungry and cold? You can call them all over, and everyone can teach them together. ”

Zhang Xianliang frowned and said: "I'm poor, so most of the friends I make are also poor ghosts, how much do you want?" ”

Yun Zhao sighed and said, "I searched the people of the Yun clan yesterday, and I found that there are not even ten percent of people who have read books and know how to read, so it is not possible." ”

Xu Yuanshou said angrily: "You would think that I would teach you those bandits of the Yun Clan, right? ”

Yun Zhao smiled: "Don't you often say - there is no class to teach? ”

Xu Yuanshou said: "If you are thirsty, you will not drink the water of the thief spring, the heat will not stop the shade of the evil wood, and the incorruptible will not be fed by the mouth!" ”

"The Yun family is now an official, and most of the people in the family are officials and soldiers, and no one is a robber! Even if someone has a thief's heart and does not die, it is his responsibility to teach them to be good people. ”

Xu Yuanshou sighed and said, "What a certain family wants to do most now is to teach you to be a good person first." ”

Zhao Yuanqi, who has always been witty, said with a smile: "Don't make excuses for yourself, if you want to carry forward the Hengqu family, you can't do without the support of the Yun family."

This can't be changed, don't say too many useless words, it's the right thing to teach these babies, no matter what they do in the future, a certain family just needs to continue to learn for the sake of the saints. ”

Yun Zhao had no interest in such academic arguments, and for the time being, as long as these gentlemen could teach all these children to read and write, he would be satisfied.

The age of firearms has arrived, and war has taken on a different look, and at this time, it is easier for those who can read and write to acquire new skills than those who are illiterate.

For the sake of this goal, Yun Zhao can give up any insistence.

"Yushan Academy has now opened up 2,000 acres of land, and with these lands, the academy will not be able to do it."

Yun Zhao diverted the topic and talked about the future of the academy.

"It's all mountains!"

"The yield of corn is not good, less than 400 catties per acre!"

"The yield of potatoes is slightly better, but it is only eight or nine hundred catties, which is not as good as the plains.

"Sweet potatoes are the most brilliant, and one acre of land costs 2,400 catties, which is beyond the old man's expectations."

Several gentlemen shouted for a while, and Han Du asked Xu Yuanshou strangely: "There is such output in the mountains, Yuanshou, why is your brother holding back?" ”

Xu Yuanshou shook his head and said, "My brother has left the Jingshi and went to Haojing to negotiate with the Portuguese about buying cannons, and he hasn't touched agriculture for a long time. ”

Yun Zhao sneered, and Liu Zhang said: "Abandon the book to the end!" Headache doctor's head and foot pain. ”

Xu Yuanshou didn't explain, looked at Yun Zhao and said, "I heard that you are also imitating the bird gun?" ”

Yun Zhao said: "It is not so difficult to make bird guns, as long as the pig iron rod is sandwiched in the red-hot wrought iron and kept forging, you can always get a qualified barrel." ”

"Would you like to find you some craftsmen from the Rumi Country? The long gun created by Zhao Shijiao is borrowed from the long gun paid tribute by the Rumi Kingdom (Turkey).

Listen to my brother, there are a lot of craftsmen from the Lumi Kingdom in Haojing, and the wages are cheap! ”

"Huh? Are there a lot of Portuguese people in Ho Realm? ”

"Not much, most of the people there are aliens, according to my brother there are no less than 6,000 people, and the Portuguese are respected."

Yun Zhao thought for a moment and said, "I want some slave craftsmen, so I'll write to Mr. Da Xu and ask him to discuss with the Portuguese." ”

Xu Yuanshou looked at Yun Zhao coldly and said, "Do you have to make my good suggestion so disgusting?"

You don't seem to be short of money. ”

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "I just hate being stuck in my neck, and for this, I am willing to pay some more money." ”

"Have you ever wondered what you think the Portuguese will do once your letter is in their hands?"

Xu Yuanshou was a little distressed.

Yun Zhao said indifferently: "The aliens who came to my China are all careerists, and they all hope to get rich overnight by discovering the New World.

It's a gamble in itself, and since they're betting themselves on the table, what's wrong with me taking a dealer's all?

This is a new way of playing, sir, you are too worried, being my slave is not necessarily more miserable than they are living in the land of the Realm. ”

Xu Yuanshou pointed at Yun Zhao, and finally waved his sleeves helplessly and left, if last year, Yun Zhao was still an obedient and good boy, but this year, Yun Zhao has grown into a bad boy who works hard with the teacher.

Seeing the thoughts of several gentlemen go away, Yun Zhao finally had a smile on his face.

The ancients were right, you should respect your teacher, talk to your teacher more, and have the mentality that you must have my teacher in a threesome, and you will always have a harvest.

This is also what the ancients said, 'Gou is new, every day is new, and every day is new!'

In the Ming Dynasty, there were only two people that Yun Zhao admired the most, one was Xu Guangqi, and the other was Zhao Shijiao!

These two are people who stand at the forefront of scientific research, and they are also the two officials of the Ming Dynasty with the broadest vision.

As long as he has contact with them, Yun Zhao can always find what he needs most from the clues.

Yun Yang was beaten and vomited blood.

It was beaten by eight masked men.

These eight masked people were all tied with iron chains, and even so, Yun Yang was still not an opponent.

When Gao Jie faces the mask people, he wins one-on-one, and it is a little difficult to fight one against two, but he can still beat the mask man, and when he faces three mask people by himself, unless he is desperate, he will definitely lose.

Yun Zhao saw this scene through a small hole.

Yun Yang, the fiercest of the brothers, was powerless to fight back when facing these eight masked people.

"The reason why these eight Jiannu surrendered is actually to find an opportunity to kill me, don't you say?"

Yun Zhao took his eyes off the hole and whispered to Qian Shaoshao, who was also peeking at Yun Yang and their martial arts practice.

Qian Shaoshao nodded and said, "I think so too, do you want to kill them?" ”

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "I want all the Yun clan warriors to know what Jiannu is like, and I want all the students in this academy to graduate after defeating these eight Jiannu."

It is not without a purpose for the superior to raise tigers, my purpose is very clear, I want these eight Jiannu to become the whetstone of my Yun soldiers, I want them to complete their psychological construction by defeating these eight Jiannu, and no longer be emboldened by the reputation of Jiannu! ”
