Forbidden city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

A new day has arrived.

Zhu Cihong got up sleepily, glanced down at the beauties beside him, and got up lightly. Unexpectedly, as soon as she saw Zhu Cihong's movement, the queen over there immediately woke up, and regardless of Zhu Cihong's persuasion, she smiled lightly and then took a bath and changed her clothes.

After some washing and tossing, Zhu Cihong had breakfast in the small hall, and his eyes fell on a palace maid.

Of course, it was not the delicate appearance of the palace maid, but the palace maid's pair of hands that tore the calendar apart.

Ming 277 June 1.

This Children's Day of the future generations is very simple here, and there is no special holiday meaning. Of course, for people of Zhu Cihong's identity. As the emperor, he is no longer a person who goes to the festival.

On the contrary, if he is interested enough, he can create a series of festivals.

For example, the calendar reads Zhu Cihong's arrangement today: the opening ceremony of the Beijing Normal University Hall.

"The Jingshi University Hall is about to open." Zhu Cihong muttered.

The Ming Dynasty had already had a Guozijian before, which was the highest institution of learning in the entire empire, and it was also the alma mater of a group of ministers from the dragon under Zhu Cihong. More than two years ago, Zhu Cihong borrowed his strength in Guozijian to complete the cleanup of the household officials. Later, he went south to Henan, and also pulled up a team from Guozijian, took many students with him, and enriched Zhu Cihong's civilian bureaucratic system.

With enough technocrats, Zhu Cihong can exert a very strong execution ability in a series of actions.

When he was just the prince, Zhu Cihong already paid attention to the reserve of talents and the echelon construction of talents, and now that he has become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he will naturally not miss these.

After all, the new empire that Zhu Cihong wants to build in his hands is not the old empire that was in the twilight of the past.

Whether it is the economic and ecological changes brought about by the new workshops, the new military of the empire with firearms, or the astronomical number of technocrats needed under the fiscal and tax reform, more talents are needed to fill them.

There is no shortage of people in the Ming Dynasty, and what is lacking has always been usable talents.

The talents available in Zhu Cihong's eyes are obviously not what can be filled by the Zijian of the North and South of the Country, as well as the Nanjing Normal School and the Army School. In the same way, even if all of those people are used to fill the number, they can't fill it, let alone how many talents can be used.

Under such a series of backgrounds, the Jingshi University Hall came into being.

Speaking of which, there is also a bit of a bad taste. The name is obviously the same as the Beijing Normal University, the predecessor of Peking University in later generations.

As the first beginning in the higher education system, Zhu Cihong naturally will not miss it no matter what.

There are still many things on the calendar, but Zhu Cihong still ranked the opening of the Beijing Normal University Hall first.

After breakfast, the carriages and horses in the palace were also prepared. All the way out of the imperial city.

Surprisingly, the place of the Kyoshi University Hall is not in the inner city.

After the convoy went north out of the Bei'an Gate of the Imperial City, it went all the way to the Bell Tower, turned northwest and went straight on the diagonal street, and went out of the city from the Desheng Gate.

On the city wall, the generals of the Praetorian Guard had already changed the guards and opened the city gate quickly and neatly.

Out of the capital, the outside is still very lively.

Near the corners of the city walls, numerous new houses are erected. The speed of the convoy slowed down suddenly, and quietly, another convoy appeared in Zhu Cihong's sight.

Different from the low-key of the royal convoy, it is not inconspicuous at all, but the security is tight, and there are countless people who strictly control each point without a trace, and no one can get close to half a step. This convoy is so noisy and lively. Not only were the wagons tall and ornate, but even the horses were more robust than ordinary horses. It looks like the dress of a wealthy family.

Nowadays, there has been a trend in today's wealthy families, and they like to mark their family crests on horse-drawn carriages. Those with a strong eye can see it at a glance, just like the brand of the car of later generations.

It's just that as long as you look at the logo on this team, you can see that this is not any big family.

"Your Majesty, this is the convoy of the craftsman's compound." On the side, Ning Wei, who was accompanying him, recognized it

Zhu Cihong groaned slightly, but got out of the carriage, and sure enough, he heard a lot of discussion in the crowd.

"A group of craftsmen have made a fortune today......"

"Today is different from the past, and the craftsmen of the past are of course miserable. But now, who doesn't want to climb the high branches of the craftsman's compound. A few days ago, I listened to my third uncle talking about the fact that because his family's workshop had not obtained a single technology from the craftsman's compound, he was robbed of business by a workshop opened by a newcomer from Fujian. You said that they all sell fire twists in the workshop, why are there so many exquisiteness? ”

"Not really...... However, these craftsmen really trembled. I heard that there are a few in the newly opened university hall, and I heard that I want to learn the crafts of these craftsmen in the future......"

"This is really unusual, a dignified scholar, who reads the books of sages, actually wants to become a craftsman? But...... If my third uncle had listened, he might have sent a few of his children over......"

"Yes, yes, although it is better now than in the past, it is still not easy to find a good livelihood. Being able to be a craftsman and learn crafts from the craftsman's compound is also a way to go in the future......"

Zhu Cihong listened to the discussion of the people, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he saw that Xu Huanwu also got off the carriage on the road, and looked at the convoy of the craftsman's compound.

Speaking of which, the size of the fleet of craftsmen's compounds is really huge. There were nearly 100 carriages, some of which were carrying people, and some were even carrying things, accounting for more than half of the entire official road. It attracted the attention of people on the side of the road, and also attracted a lot of discussions.

That Xu Huanwu obviously came to see the excitement. It's just that Xu Huanwu obviously didn't expect to meet Zhu Cihong here.

"Your Majesty......" Xu Huanwu hurriedly came over to salute.

Zhu Cihong waved his hand, but he looked very happy: "Why be polite, live and live, this is not the place to talk." Come on my carriage and talk about it. ”

Zhu Cihong is also busy in the palace, and he worries about national affairs every day. Although Xu Huanwu can be seen from time to time, that frequency is calculated by month.

For example, even if it is a company in one building, if you want to meet colleagues from other departments, unless you are specifically looking for it, it is very infrequent to meet by chance.

Therefore, Zhu Cihong was also in a good mood when he saw Xu Huanwu.

The place where the Jingshi University Hall was built is not far from the capital, and it takes some time for the carriages and horses to walk, and it is also a pleasure to have someone talking on the road to relieve boredom.

"Xu Qing lives near here? If you remember correctly, there is a pond in the city. Zhu Cihong still has some impressions of the situation near Desheng Gate.

"Your Majesty, the minister does live here. The central bank is also in Mingyufang in Xicheng, close to Jishuitan. Moreover, the minister's family has a large population, and there are some prices vacated in the city, and it is not easy to live in Beijing. Xu Huanwu saw that Zhu Cihong was gossiping to relieve his boredom, and he tried his best to cooperate.

"Oh?" Zhu Cihong glanced at Xu Huanwu, but he didn't expect to hear a little atmosphere of North Drift from Xu Huanwu. Of course, it is not easy to live in a pond. In later generations, this is within the second ring.

Having said that, in this era, as the head of the department directly under the cabinet, it is indeed remote to live in Jishuitan.

As he spoke, Xu Huanwu also told the story one by one: "In the past two years, it has actually been much better than usual." Normally, many colleagues had to move outside the city to find cheaper places to live. Now that the ground is calm and the fighting is far away, the gap between the inner and outer cities is smaller. Of course, in general, the price of land in Beijing is higher than in previous years. After all, the world is calm, and Jingshi is the best place in the country, so naturally everyone comes here to make a living. Fortunately, my colleagues have undergone a major renovation last year, and they have a lot more money on hand. ”

As soon as Zhu Cihong ascended the throne, the housing prices in Beijing rose sharply.

A city wall barrier makes the land price inside and outside completely different, and the difference is several grades.

In the inner city, if you want to find a decent courtyard with three entrances, you can't find a good one without spending three or five hundred taels of silver. But in the outer city, even three or five such courtyards will rush to sell, I'm afraid you won't buy it.

In the past, it was because of the war every year during the Chongzhen period, separated by a city wall, and the difference was not only the tediousness of entering and exiting the city gate every day, but also the difference in safety. Living in the city, I can finally avoid being clicked by the rebel army outside. Living outside the city, but being plagued by the military disasters that sweep in from time to time, no matter how cheap the house is, all of them are burned down in the war, and it doesn't make sense, right?

However, these two years are obviously different.

Daming is still fighting, but the place where the war is fought is getting farther and farther away from Jingshi. At the beginning, he went directly to Tongzhou, outside the city of Jingshi, and then went to Zunhua, and then pushed it all the way to Liaodong and pushed to the Mongolian steppe in the north of Shanxi.

The ground of the capital began to calm down, and the gap between the inner city and the outer city began to narrow.

And all this means that the Ming Dynasty began to gradually free itself from the troubled times.

Leaving aside these small details, Zhu Cihong and Xu Huanwu entered the Beijing Normal University Hall located in the northwest corner of Beijing Normal University with a smile and a smile.

Like almost all the new biological parts in Zhu Cihong's hands, the Jingshi University Hall was built far away from the city, but the pattern was very huge, covering an area of 10,000 acres, and the wall circle was very large. Of course, there is still some emptiness inside.

……

"The school is really big...... Wu Qiao'er, who was wearing a plain pleated skirt, looked at the vast campus, opened her mouth, and said in surprise: "There are so many high-rise buildings, it still looks a little more powerful than Jingshi." ”

On the side, Tian Yingqi said slightly proudly: "This is the first school in the Ming Dynasty." ”

What Tian Yingqi didn't say was that the fact that the Jingshi University Hall was able to build many houses on the flat ground so quickly was actually due to Hengxin Commercial Bank.

In recent years, the whole country has gradually calmed down during the war and has begun to enter a period of peace.

Hengxin Commercial Bank has also been keen to grasp business opportunities and has established numerous construction companies. These construction companies have adopted a lot of new materials and processes, and even put expensive steel into concrete, which has made the building stronger, and it can be seen everywhere in small two- and three-story buildings, and even more in five- and six-story buildings.

……

Under the glamorous high-rise buildings, in addition to the application of new technologies, there are naturally the hard work and blood and sweat of workers.

Compared with other construction companies, the construction company under Hengxin Commercial Bank has another benefit: prisoners of war.

If we want to let the Manchurian slaves be destroyed and exterminated, of course, we must not engage in a brutal and inhumane massacre. Except for some generals who were able to track down the crimes of massacre and looting during the war, who were tried and executed by the listed war criminals, most of the ordinary soldiers still left a single life.

Of course, Daming will not be so kind to allocate money and food every year to support it.

There are never idlers in prisons. Thus, the labor camp came into being. Given the backward level of management in the prison in these years. As a result, after many prisoners of war are tried and convicted, they have to undergo labor reform in a minimum of 10 years and a maximum of 20 years.

Manchurian prisoners of war can have this way of living, and those Shunjun prisoners of war who rebelled in the civil war naturally have this opportunity not to die.

For example, Li Yan.

Because he had a good reputation in the army, and he did not commit any crimes that caused public anger after the rebellion, Li Yan also got a trial result of ten years of old reform.

Ten years is not a short time, but there is hope for it after all.

After Li Yan entered the labor camp, his life was quite peaceful, except for the hard work every day, there was nothing he couldn't get by. Many prisoners of war knew that this was Li Yan, and even took some care of him, so that he would not be bullied by the bullies with big fists in the prisoners of war.

After staying up for a few months, seeing that Li Yan was still stable in the labor camp, he was transferred to the construction project of the Beijing Normal University Hall, which was the most important thing in Hengxin Construction Company.

Thereupon......

Li Yan also appeared in the hall of Beijing Normal University at this moment.

He looked at the buildings standing one after another, and couldn't help but feel a little distracted.

Today is the beginning of the school year, and even some unfinished work in the school must be stopped. Li Yan was looking at the roof of an unfinished building at the moment, looking at the students and teachers who were constantly entering the school, and his heart couldn't help but drift: "Unexpectedly, this is less than a year. This change in the Ming Dynasty is so big...... To be able to build such a tall building and open a wide range of schools, this Ming Dynasty is really getting more and more passable......"

Running a school has always been a matter that requires a lot of financial investment, and if there is no money in the treasury, it will never be able to squeeze out this money and food. Conversely, it is clear that the country is thriving at the moment.

Li Yan was fascinated, and suddenly a coolie next to him pulled Li Yan's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Over there, it's so lively." ”

"Oh?" Li Yan looked in the direction pointed by the worker, and suddenly countless sorrows appeared in his heart, where countless young scholars held up a huge banner and walked in the middle of the campus, shouting happily as they walked: "Wang Shi Beiding grassland, Hetao has been recovered!" ”

"Daming Wansheng!"

"Long live Daming!"

……

Countless cheers resounded in the hall of Beijing Normal University, and Li Yan watched quietly and was stunned. (To be continued.) )
