Chapter 260 It's all mine!
The emperor was right to be angry.
Who are these officials scolding with their nonsense? To the emperor's ears, they were scolding him.
The position of Secretary Cotton Officer Wailang was created by him; the position of Counselor of the Ministry of Industry was personally directed by him; the position of Deputy Qianhu of the Secret Investigation Department was also approved by him.
If all three positions are criticized, isn't this just criticizing the emperor?
By criticizing me, do you want to cut off my private income?!
The emperor thought angrily, angrily opening the secret letter and shaking off the paper.
If the paper hadn't been strong enough, he might have shaken it to pieces.
As I looked at it, I became less angry, at least not so angry.
The secret letter said that Chu Qing determined the location of the cotton fields in a short time, and also said: "I think it is impossible for such a big country that no one knows how to grow cotton, and even if they don't understand, they will not be ignorant.
Know.
Knowledge is all interrelated. All crops are inseparable from the three elements of sunlight, air and moisture, and targeted fertilization.
Look, the real talents are at the grassroots level! Look at these farmers and county magistrates, they are the real agricultural experts. If I say one thing, they can tell me three things, and they even taught me a lot!"
The secret letter also said that near the cotton fields established by Chu Qing, his son Chu Dao established the "Baoqing Technician College" on his own to train craftsmen in several types of work so that they could "harvest on the spot, process on the spot, and process on the spot during the autumn harvest."
Land Sales”.
"Chu Qing's son is no worse than her!" the emperor said, staring at the word "Zi Zi" on the letter.
There were five pages of letter paper, full of handwriting, written with a pen dipped in water, so the emperor could read it.
"Your son is not bad at all. His handwriting is getting better and better, and it is more powerful than calligraphy with a brush!" the emperor praised.
Even though I thanked everyone, I was very happy in my heart.
My son is a bit of a "little friend", like everyone else.
When I was with him before, I acquired a sinister aura and felt like I was about to kill someone at any moment. Later, when I joined Hongliang's team, I acquired a murderous aura and learned a lot of tactics. And then... I became a lot more lively.
It’s also quite verbose.
The emperor read the secret letter, refolded it and put it in the envelope, and handed it to Buqun: "Take it back and read it. There are also some greetings for you in it."
Bu Qun was waiting for this moment. The secret letters submitted to the emperor were rarely returned to him. I wanted to see his son's handwriting, I wanted to see... my son.
Just as Buqun disappeared, Eunuch Li's report came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Lord Hu wants to see you."
"Come in!" said the emperor.
Then, the door was first opened a crack, and then expanded a little bit, accompanied by Hu Hengqiu's low voice: "How does the emperor look? Will it happen if I go in..."
"Yes! Come in here!"
Hu Hengqiu came in with a playful smile: "The emperor has sharp ears and eyes, which is a blessing to the people!"
The emperor rolled his eyes at him: "You came back after spraying?"
Hu Hengqiu: "Yes! I sprayed them in the face! It's outrageous!"
The emperor pointed to Jindun: "Sit down."
This kind of treatment, you will be given a seat as soon as you enter the door, Hu Hengqiu thought happily.
Hu Hengqiu reported to the emperor the story of how he sprayed and threatened him just now, and then handed over a clear work report.
Chu Qing's reports have never been very formal. This is related to the fact that she holds multiple positions, and it is also related to the fact that she is not used to the format of this era.
But the emperor liked to read it very much, just like reading travel notes, miscellaneous talks, and anecdotes.
The first part is a map of the location of the cotton fields, with the locations of the cotton fields marked on it.
The second part is the basic information on how to perform your duties. This part is the most straightforward, including the time, place, what you did, and what the results were. Write them down clearly.
The third part is the richest. This is a stack of horizontal atlases that appear to be drawn using the line drawing technique, but are colored, and are called "Cotton Pictures".
Including the entire process from growing cotton, spinning to weaving and dyeing cloth.
The plans include: "Seed of Cloth", "Irrigation", "Cultivating the Border", "Picking Tops", "Picking Cotton", "Selecting for Sunlight", "Collecting and Selling", "Rolling Kernels", "Popping Flowers", and "Jiejie".
", "Spinning Thread", "Sutra Drawing", "Making Cloth", "Working on the Machine", "Weaving", "Dyeing Practice".
Each picture has a text description, which makes it look like a modern picture book.
This was copied by Chu Qing based on the "Cotton Pictures" by Fang Guancheng during the Qianlong period collected in the library.
The so-called "looks like a line drawing technique" is because Chu Qing has never learned to draw. He only drew based on his past habit of drawing circuit diagrams of construction projects. They were all single lines and he just drew them.
Later, I quit my job and went home to have and raise my children. It wasn't until my children went to kindergarten that I became a librarian through the back door through connections, which was regarded as "returning to society."
The former job is a job type determined based on college entrance examination scores, and the latter job is a job type chosen for the convenience of raising children.
Relatively speaking, Chu Qing prefers the latter job.
In the library, after finishing her daily work, she would always find the opportunity to look through the rubbings of ancient books or research documents that were not included in "Du Niang".
Then he launches a wave of "evil mental attacks" at the book robot, cursing it not to live to take his place.
It's a good thing now that robots don't have to take the initiative to replace themselves.
Let’s talk about “Cotton Picture”.
Chu Qing made inserts for the first three pictures, which recorded the planting experience and some judgments of local farmers, and signed their names on them.
Then, on the penultimate page of the entire atlas, the rank, position, place of origin, and names of farmers from various places were recorded in detail.
The fourth part is the most vivid. It reports on the establishment of Xiaobao Technical School, including the subject classification of the school, the origins and academic qualifications of the cultural teachers, and the origins and specialties of the technical teachers.
The last part reads: "The above is the part that Chu understands has completed and is in progress. The other parts are unknown and will be reported later."
Seeing the emperor browsing these contents, Hu Hengqiu knew that he would not be able to finish them in a while, so it was okay to talk now, so he said: "Chu Qing asked the minister, does her son's food court need to 'pay tax'? One year later, Bao Qing
The Technician College will also charge for repairs. Do we need to pay taxes? How should I answer this?"
The emperor had to think about this issue slowly.
Xiaobao's food court is conveniently located in the Chuqing property. Wherever Chuqing trades, there is a food court.
From this perspective, the food court has become a subsidiary of Chuqing Industry.
But just like the school cafeteria being outsourced, Xiaobao can completely break away from these conveniences and exist independently.
If Xiaobao builds food streets in commercial streets in various counties, he will only pay a small "stall fee" at most, which will not affect Xiaobao's overall income.
Xiaobao also wanted his mother's boys to have a "convenience canteen", so they were distributed like this.
