"Your Royal Highness Princess, I have been ordered by Ashikaga-sama to come and meet the two Highnesses." After the envoy saluted, he quickly stated the ostensible purpose of the trip.

"Get up." Ashikaga Saiyun said to the messenger.

"Yes." The messenger stood up, but did not know where he was going. Eiichiro's residence resembles the house of the Great Song Dynasty in the embassy district outside Kamakura, with a half-elevated floor and wallpaper on the walls. There are no tatami mats in the house, only sofas and chairs.

Ashikaga Saiun's maid came and led the messenger to his seat, and the messenger dared to sit down on the chair. The cushions on the chair are moderately soft and hard, and it feels cool. Instead of kneeling with your thighs pressed against your calves, sit upright or cross-legged. The sitting posture that allows the legs to be lowered naturally is not dignified, but it is really comfortable.

The wooden table in front of him was very neatly handled, and the entire table was not painted, revealing the original texture of the wood. It is said that it is not painted, and there is an indescribable luster on the table. As he was watching, the maid had already placed a tray and a snow-white magnetic cup in front of the messenger. The red drink is poured from the white teapot into the teacup, and the aroma is overflowing.

The maid brought another white porcelain jar, and inside was a piece of white stuff, and beside it were gilded tweezers. Seeing that the messenger didn't know what it was, the maid picked up a piece of white and put it in the teacup. The messenger watched as the white lumps quickly melted in the teacup.

This style is very different from the upper class of the Japanese state, and the same thing is exquisite. The envoy recalled that not long after he was brought into the city, he was released with gifts and sent to Adachi Nichiro's residence, and many expectations were born in his heart. It can be seen that His Excellency Nichiro has a considerable level in the Shikoku Army, otherwise where would there be such pomp.

Ashikaga Saika, the younger sister who was sitting next to Ashikaga Saiun, asked the messenger, "I wonder if my parents can ask you to bring a letter?" ”

The messenger hurriedly got up, took out the letter from the gift box, and handed it to the two daughters of the Ashikaga family. When the Ashikaga family cooperated with their relative Adachi Inichiro against their relative Hojo family, Adachi Inichiro asked to stay, and the Ashikaga family married the daughters of two relatives to Inoichiro. Now that I have come to meet my uncle Inoichiro, of course, the letter from my family is indispensable.

The letter was handed to the two daughters of the Ashikaga family, and the messenger continued to stand. Ashikaga Saiyun invited the messenger to sit down, and while the two of them read the letter, the messenger took a sip of the teacup. Immediately conquered by the sweet black tea. Unlike the tea brewed from the tea cakes learned by the upper class of the Wa Kingdom from the Tang Dynasty, the taste of black tea is mellow and natural, with a unique floral flavor. It is even more pleasant with sweetness. The aroma and sweetness of the aftertaste are so wonderful that I have never been able to drink such a wonderful tea at Ashikaga-sama.

The two daughters of the Ashikaga family received letters from their father and mother, and they each read one for each. After reading it, they will be exchanged. In the meantime the messenger had finished drinking a glass, and the maid poured him another glass. This time, no sugar was added, and the deliciousness of the tea was even more highlighted. It made the messenger feel very intoxicated.

"Your Excellency, I already understand your intentions. We'll have to wait until Inichiro returns. Ashikaga Saiyun said after putting down the letter.

The messenger hastened to agree, though there was no particular reason to believe that the trip had achieved its purpose. Sitting on a comfortable stool and sipping delicious black tea, the messenger was confident that the trip would achieve its goal.

Ichiro was sitting in front of his real boss with a cup of black tea in front of him. Some people in the Song Kingdom like black tea, some people like white tea, some people like green tea, and some people like flower tea. Eiichiro was also able to taste the deliciousness of various teas. Yin Ichiro is very comfortable facing his real boss, and the Song people are not only the boss of Yin Ichiro, but also the boss of the Four Nations Army. So Inoichiro is relaxed, he already understands where his strengths lie. Excellent background is important, but what the Song people value more is that Yin Ichiro has received enough education.

Although the Shikoku Army was strong, there were very few people in Satochu who could understand the nobility of the Japanese Kingdom, and this was the value of Inoichiro, an outsider. The vague and metaphorical words of the upper echelons of the Wa kingdom had to be made by the nobles to understand the meaning. However, Inoichiro did not feel proud because of this, the nobles were pretending to be deceitful, and the Shikoku army was vulgar and low-level. The Song people, who represent the boss of Da Song, speak concisely and to the core, and Yin Yilang only needs to think about what the boss of Da Song wants to express clearly, and he doesn't have to think about it.

"As long as the Ashikaga family gives money and promises trade, whatever is provided to the Kamakura shogunate, whatever is given to the Ashikaga family." Said the representative of the boss.

"Exactly the same equipment?" Nichiro also went straight to the point.

The spokesperson for the boss emphasized what Inichiro didn't say, "It depends on whether the Ashikaga family is willing to accept our conditions." ”

"Your Excellency, the last deal with the shogunate did not reach a quota. I heard that the shogunate's warehouse for trading had been emptied, and only half a shipload had been loaded. Inoichiro reminded.

"Don't worry, tell them. If there is no money, we will send people to work in the Great Song Dynasty, and we will pay the laborers for food and lodging. In the unfortunate event of the death of a worker, we will also provide compensation to the worker's family with the Great Song Payment. ”

"They...... I'm afraid I can't believe it. ”

"That's your job. Nichiro, we are very optimistic about you. ”

"Your Excellency, I beg your pardon. If the Great Song Dynasty wanted to hire Japanese laborers, it was best not to look for nobles. They themselves also rely on the land to pull the strongmen. It is more useful to contact the ground directly. ”

"Oh? Tell me about it. ”

Nichiro has been messing around down there for so long, and he knows a lot about places. When asked, he told his own experience and opinions. Neither the Kamakura shogunate nor the Ashikaga clan could really control the place, except for the samurai and nobles who directly took the money from the two families, and the countryside of the Wakuni was completely controlled by the land. It is the two upper families who decide to provide labor services, or whether they have to rely on the fields below to complete the labor selection, assembly and transportation. Instead of walking such a big circle, it is better to contact the ground directly and let the ground do it themselves. Another advantage of doing it on the ground is that they don't have to alarm the higher-ups, they can make it bigger.

The person in charge of the Great Song side attached great importance to Yin Ichiro's suggestion, and sent it back to China after sorting it out. Zhao Qian's side soon saw the report, and his first reaction was 'tell the truth'. Zhao Qian understands the characteristics encountered at the grassroots level, and the so-called county officials are not as good as the current management. Great leaders at the grassroots know what they're facing and how to deal with it. But how can such characters stay at the grassroots level, they will definitely rely on their own strength to climb up step by step.

This choice is understandable, but it leads to the continuous departure of outstanding talent from the grassroots through a smooth upward channel. In the end, a large number of outstanding talents were gathered in the upper echelons, but it was difficult to improve due to the lack of deep cultivation below. There is no way to solve this kind of problem, and the best way is to send outstanding personnel to the grassroots level. Zhao Qian once thought that this was an impossible task, until a while ago he personally saw off more than a dozen ministers who had last served at the grassroots level......

Zhao Qian forcibly withdrew his thoughts, it would be great if the Wa State could provide labor. The Great Song Dynasty now has a population of 100 million, and a large number of people are trying to leave the countryside and enter the cities. This has turned cities into densely populated islands, with all canal capacity saturated, and the only way to break down the barriers between cities is to rely on the new tool of rail.

didn't even discuss it with others, Zhao Qian directly instructed to "try it". Then Zhao Qian opened the report he had read before and continued to study the current situation on the farm. Some farms are doing well, some are half, some are bad. Zhao Qian put forward his own views after talking with the head of Henan Luxue, and the angry president brushed his sleeves away. Zhao Qian was not angry, he felt that the president did not scold him, even if he gave face.

The president hopes to do a good job in all farms, and Zhao Qian's view is to set the basic conditions for a farm employee, and those who are qualified will stay, and those who are not qualified will be given a piece of land and let them cultivate it themselves. If there is not enough land, part of the farm is disbanded and the land is directly turned into village land.

After reading the report for a while, Zhao Qian felt more and more that he had made the right choice. It is not easy to turn everyone into social workers, and there are too many differences in the base of everyone. One of the basic qualities of qualified farm personnel identified by Zhao Qian is 'communication skills'. Too many people don't even know what they're encountering, let alone use language as a tool to express their feelings. How do such people make them communicate? Every word they utter is very different from the meaning of the word itself, and even the opposite of what it represents.

Thinking of this, Zhao Qian picked up his pen and began to write his thoughts: 'Many people are not capable of accomplishing one thing, so they don't understand what the work they are engaged in is. In a highly divided society, those people can only engage in a certain link of production. In the factory, each link has strict technical standards and technological processes, forming an internal process. Mastering this process allows you to do repetitive work. Every step of the farm has a direct impact on the results, and there is no way to have the same strict standards and processes as industrial production at this stage. Therefore, any change will affect the entire agricultural production, and it is impossible to accurately identify the problem if there is a problem. Because the process itself is a process of change. Therefore, it is imperative to exclude a part of the farm workers, and only those teams that are suitable for the composition of personnel can make a breakthrough, and then summarize a part of the production standards that meet the rules from their production. ’

Writing this, Zhao Qian put down his pen and began to let his thoughts fly. If such a team can be formed, it may be possible to provide a part of the many farmers who cultivate their own crops to imitate. But with the characteristics of farmers, can they really learn? At least can you understand it? Zhao Qian has seen too many people who actually have no ability to learn, they only have the ability to imitate the human instinct as Dad said. However, what is needed to understand something is the ability to learn, and mere imitation often has no positive effect and can even lead to very bad results. Actions can be imitated, but the basic principles that cannot be seen or touched cannot be imitated.
