Chapter eight hundred and seventy-six good students
Zhang Shuning bought each of his students a pair of cloth shoes.
That's right, when they came out of their hometowns, many of them wore straw sandals.
And the kid wearing straw sandals passed the exam of Jimin Academy and entered the top universities of Ming Dynasty.
A new pair of shoes is a given.
But there are a few children who hold the shoes in their hands but are reluctant to put them on.
They secretly hid it and wanted to take it home, give it to their younger siblings, or give it to their parents. After all, there were people there who had worked hard for most of their lives, walking barefoot in the mountains and fields, exhausted.
All the strength, struggling to survive.
If the Ming Dynasty had not implemented land equalization, given them land, and reduced most of their taxes, they might never have thought about going to school, let alone leaving their hometown...
"Put it on!"
Zhang Shuning appeared in front of the children and gave orders in a very serious tone.
They didn't understand why the gentle mountain leader suddenly became strict, but they still put on new shoes, just like everyone else.
"Before you took the exam, you were just travelers on the road, walking in a hurry, covered with travel dust, with embarrassed faces, wearing tattered clothes and straw sandals, as long as you could still study. But after passing the exam, you become different, you
It is the hope of my hometown and a role model for other students... I don’t want you to wear gold and silver, but I hope you will be neatly dressed and dignified. Moreover, we are going to Yingtian, the capital of Ming Dynasty, so we must respect us
We are the capital of the country, respect yourselves... dress well, sir, I will buy you new ones if they are worn out. In short, this is to go to Yingtian, do you understand?"
Several students were stunned, and finally nodded vigorously. They could hear that Yingtian did have an extraordinary meaning.
They got on the big boat, and Zhang Shuning led them down the river and headed straight for Yingtian.
There was laughter and laughter on the boat, and the children kept discussing and imagining the scene in Yingtian.
But no matter how rich their imaginations were, they were still frightened by the scene in front of them.
Because just above the pier, there is a huge thing hanging in the air. Under this huge thing, there is a hanging basket. There seems to be someone on top of the hanging basket waving small colorful flags?
Are we welcome?
Obviously not, this is just a hot air balloon used to temporarily direct ships to enter the port.
An invention can indeed bring too many changes.
The buildings in Yingtian are still mainly made of bricks, tiles and wood, and there are too many firewood and sundries piled up. Fires happen almost every day. If it happens on a day like the Lantern Festival with lights and colorful decorations, fires will happen even more frequently and it is difficult to prevent them.
.
But with the emergence of hot air balloons, a big problem was solved.
The overall fire reduction has been reduced by 70%...but this is far from enough. According to the imperial court's assessment, in order to solve the problem, it is best to change the firewood-burning habits of Yingtian people.
In short, promote coal!
After all, this has been verified in Peiping, coal is indeed much safer than wood.
As for the source of coal?
Isn’t that Peking?
Throughout the Ming Dynasty, the distribution of coal in Peiping was indeed wider and wider than in the south... The Monan area outside the Great Wall, as well as Liaodong, were all large coal mines with amazing reserves.
Coal mining has become another major industry in the north.
Countless amounts of coal have to be transported to the south to supply the needs of cities.
This requires a breakthrough in transportation.
Moreover, the Zhongshu Province has issued an order that for every 1,000 kilograms of coal transported to Yingtian, a subsidy of 100 yuan can be provided.
No matter how you send it, the subsidy remains unchanged.
In other words, whether you improve mining tools or invent new means of transportation... you can even continue to lack moral integrity and exploit foreign coolies to make more profits.
All in all, want to make money?
Use your brain!
On the other hand, there are too many problems with wooden buildings, which has given rise to another fantastic idea... Can we find waterproof materials that are not easy to burn?
If there is a breakthrough, with so many cities in the south and tens of millions of people, the profit margins will be unimaginable!
There are too many smart people gathered in Yingtian at this moment, and everyone is racking their brains to find a way to break through.
At this moment, Zhang Shuning arrived in Yingtian, and he was greeted by Zhang Chengtian and Xia Zhifeng.
Zhang Shuning came to Xia Zhifeng first, and the two had not seen each other for some time. Although they exchanged letters, how could they offset the pain of missing each other.
At this time, Zhang Shuning has grown into a young man. He is slender, has delicate features, and has graceful and vigorous movements... At first glance, he looks very similar to Zhang Ximeng.
He was wearing cloth clothes and shoes, and he didn't have any jade pendants or other decorations on his body, but he was so noble that he looked pleasing to the eye.
In comparison, Xia Zhifeng has also become a big girl.
She is not the kind of good-looking person who would captivate the whole country. At first glance, she might seem a bit ordinary. But how can a woman with extraordinary intelligence be really ordinary?
She has a talent that even Zhang Shuning cannot match, and a self-confidence that is difficult for ordinary people to match. After all, in her field of expertise, apart from teachers, she may be the one who can at least be ranked among the top three!
This kind of industry boss-level figure naturally despises authority. Princes and dukes are fleeting. Only astronomy, geography, physics and chemistry, the truth will last forever!
Zhang Shuning and Xia Zhifeng, two young people in completely different fields, stood there, looking so harmonious, as if they were born to be a pair, and there was no better match.
"Brother, senior sister! Don't look at each other. Can we have a word? What are you going to eat tonight?"
Zhang Shuning turned his head, looked at Zhang Chengtian, and shook his head helplessly, "You have obviously grown up and lost weight, so why haven't you changed your habit of being a foodie?"
Zhang Chengtian said rudely: "Even our father said that food is the most important thing for the people. Your Majesty has planted so many new crops, not just for the sake of food for the people... You have finally come back this time. I will be your host and treat you to a roast duck. It's authentic.
How about the Yingtian flavor?"
Zhang Shuning smiled and said, "Then it's good to be in love, so it's settled."
He turned his head and shouted twice to the deck, "Come down, don't wait any longer!"
At this voice, a large group of teenagers rushed down from the cabin and ran over quickly!
Zhang Chengtian was stunned when he saw this scene.
Because Zhang Shuning was not in a hurry to let people down, he thought he had already settled in advance, so he made a big deal and wanted to treat guests.
Who would have known that it was Zhang Shuning who deliberately asked the students to wait and easily dug a hole for Zhang Chengtian.
"Thank you, Uncle Master...you're welcome!"
The students smiled and thanked him, and Zhang Chengtian's face turned dark.
"Brother...you, you are really good!"
Zhang Chengtian had no idea at all, so he could only go to the roast duck restaurant as quickly as possible.
"With so many people, we must give them a discount!"
Zhang Shuning smiled and said: "Second brother, discounts are nothing. The key is to hire a few more slicers. Otherwise, there are so many people, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle them!"
Zhang Chengtian almost knelt down when he heard this.
Forget about discounts, if you can save people from wages, it will give you face.
But in fact, the owner of the roast duck restaurant heard that he was a student from the southwest and experienced the scenery of Yingtian... He took the initiative to put up a sign not to receive other foreign customers.
I also invited about ten helpers to work together.
When Zhang Shuning led the students over, the pancakes, duck meat, and sweet noodle sauce with shredded green onions were all ready.
Two hundred students are taken care of in every possible way.
"Chief Shan, this is Yingtian! It's so good!"
Zhang Shuning smiled brightly, "Yes, this is Yingtian, it's just very good!"
He turned his head again and said to Zhang Chengtian who was grimacing: "Yes, you have made a meritorious service. Don't keep grimacing. If you are worried about money, go to our father!"
Zhang Chengtian rolled his eyelids, "I'm so impatient that I'm going to find my father? I've seen through it all. In this family, I'm the most irritated... By the way, brother, how are your students' grades? I, I'm not asking Passed the exam."
Zhang Shuning was stunned for a moment, "Why are you asking this? Those who pass the exam will definitely go to Jimin Academy to study. Where they go in the future depends on themselves."
Zhang Chengtian nodded, "I know... I just want to ask, is there anyone willing to come to the Guards Department?"
Zhang Shuning hesitated slightly, then Xia Zhifeng smiled and said: "He, until now, is still just a commander. Except for Zhu Chun, he doesn't have a single subordinate."
Zhang Chengtian was anxious, "Senior sister, please stop talking nonsense. I have a lot of informants, otherwise how would I have gotten so much information! I am short of reliable people now. I want someone who is obedient, has nothing to do with anything, is honest and sincere, smart and studious..."
Zhang Shuning listened silently and was a little tempted.
"How many of these students of mine can you want?"
"Twenty or thirty people!"
"How is the treatment?"
"Compared with the treatment given by the Archguard Division, we can start with a small flag, okay?"
"Do you have a place to stay?"
"Yes, a single room next to the Gongde Camp, okay?"
Zhang Shuning thought for a while and finally nodded, "I would like to remind you that my students are simple-minded and come from the countryside. Don't let them do evil things!"
Zhang Chengtian looked up to the sky and laughed, "Brother, what do you do as a guard? We are serious intelligence researchers. I want to provide the most professional intelligence to His Majesty and our father. We are not Jin Yiwei!"
Zhang Shuning finally nodded... Zhang Chengtian was in a good mood.
"Roast duck is nothing. I'll take you to the streets with my uncle. If you see anything good, you'll buy it. The money... will go to the Wei Department's account! You're considered a member of the inspection team."
When Zhang Shuning heard this, he immediately wanted to slap his second brother!
Good fellow, you let Lao Zhu be the scapegoat again, aren't you afraid of His Majesty's anger?
Facts have proved that Zhang Chengtian is not afraid at all.
From this group of students, he selected eighteen people and awarded them all the status of small banner of the Archguard Division.
Even though they are still unknown now, they are nothing, but a few years later, the Guards Division will become famous, detecting intelligence, getting rid of opponents of the Ming Dynasty, and can do anything in the sky and on the earth!
But at the moment, they had no time to think about the future, because they still had the most important stop, which was to go to the Martyrs' Shrine opposite the palace to pay homage to the heroes who founded the Ming Dynasty.
By the way, we also want to take a look at the exhibition hall to understand the land equalization policy, read the original school establishment order, and understand why they are where they are today...
