The next day, the court prepared several carts of scrolls, grain, and various silks and satins.
It is said that there are three thousand volumes of books, but in fact it is only a few hundred volumes, and most of them are children's elementary reading materials.
Jin Chunqiu looked at the carts of grain, wiped his tears and said: "Xu Shangshu's kindness, I shed tears of gratitude."
Xu Jingzong waved his hand and said: "No, you should thank Tian Khan for his kindness."
Having said this, Jin Chunqiu knelt down towards the Tai Chi Hall again and kowtowed heavily.
After helping him up, Xu Jingzong patted his shoulder and said, "Tian Khan appreciates you very much."
"Really?" Jin Chunqiu wiped his tears again and asked again: "Does Tian Khan really appreciate his ministers?"
Xu Jingzong smiled meaningfully and said: "Of course, no envoy has ever brought so much goods after a trip to Chang'an. If Tian Khan doesn't appreciate you, who will appreciate you?"
Jin Chunqiu straightened his face in a hurry and said: "I am willing to wipe out my heart and soul for the Tang Dynasty!"
Xu Jingzong said in a low voice: "You don't have to be messy, you just need to do good things. I have a book here that records the tactics of attacking Japanese slaves. You can take it back and read it carefully."
"The strong man who slaughtered Baekje..."
Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "You don't have to worry about him. It has only been half a year since that strongman took over Baekje. The government is still governing Goguryeo. It will take some time to digest Baekje's population and land."
"Xu Shangshu is still far-sighted."
Xu Jingzong nodded and said, "Originally I don't like flattering people like you."
"Your Majesty..."
Xu Jingzong said again: "You should leave quickly. I hate people like you even more now. I'm worried that I won't be able to help but kill you in a moment."
The mood of people in the Tang Dynasty was always uncertain, such as Tian Khan, Lishan County Marquis, or this Xu Shangshu.
Even those who offended the Tang Dynasty would not end well, so Jin Chunqiu hurriedly left Chang'an City with carts of goods.
After the person walked away, Li Yifu came from behind and whispered: "Does Xu Shangshu really want to use this person?"
Xu Jingzong walked towards the imperial city and whispered: "I don't like this person. If it weren't for the overall situation, he would be a dead man."
Li Yifu whispered: "Is he valuable to Datang?"
"Well, at least he is willing to be Datang's dog."
"Killing people may matter, but killing a dog doesn't require too much thought."
Xu Jingzong said discouraged: "Let's raise him first. At least let him have a full meal before he bites people."
"Who's biting? Who's the dog?"
This kid Di Renjie appeared out of nowhere.
Xu Jingzong said with a dark face: "What do you want to eat now?"
Di Renjie laughed and said, "I heard that Lishan has opened a technical institute to teach people livelihood skills, such as blacksmiths, carpenters, masons, cooks and arithmetic. Recently, a group of people have graduated, and they have also received something called a diploma.
.”
"With the graduation certificate from Lishan Technical College, they will have proof of working abroad, and Lishan Technical College also has students' archives, so they can check the students' employment status."
Xu Jingzong stopped and asked, "How do you know this?"
Di Renjie explained: "Xu Shangshu didn't know something. I made an agreement to exchange letters with His Highness the King of Jin."
I don’t know how Di Renjie made friends with King Jin. If he had known that this little nemesis was not simple, now he can get close to King Jin at a young age, and maybe he can get even higher in the future.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Jingzong said again: "You should study hard and don't think that because His Highness the Prince of Jin is friends with you, you can be arrogant."
"Xu Shangshu, don't worry. I have been taught by my father since I was a child. I will not rely on the status of His Highness the King of Jin. I will take part in the imperial examination and become an official."
Even if this boy is still sensible, the King of Jin is still young, so it is not possible to say that.
Xu Jingzong is still thinking about how to deal with this little nemesis in the future.
On the streets of Dongshi, a group of people were also fighting for a craftsman.
Di Renjie explained: "This craftsman also graduated from Lishan and has achieved good results. Their wages have naturally increased. If an ordinary craftsman starts as an apprentice, it will take at least three to five years to be able to stand alone. But if he works in Lishan
After one year of study, you will at least be a foreman."
Li Yifu asked in confusion: "Is it something special?"
"Of course, as far as I know, the new drawing methods taught by craftsmen at Lishan Technical College are more sophisticated than those at the Ministry of Engineering."
Di Renjie motioned the two of them to look at the bag on the craftsman's waist. The bag looked very heavy.
"The man's waist bag contains the instruments used in Lishan casting. Among them are compasses and Zhenguan rulers, which are rulers that can be accurate to one percent."
Xu Jingzong asked: "His Royal Highness King Jin told you these?"
Di Renjie smiled and said, "Young man is hungry, Xu Shangshu, please eat quickly."
After that, Di Renjie took Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu into a wine shop. The business of this wine shop was very good.
When everyone walked in, they found that there was no place at all.
Li Yifu took out his identity and drove away a table of idlers who were lingering around, and then there was an empty seat.
Di Renjie said to the boy: "I want three beggar's chickens, two salted duck eggs cut in half, and a bowl of dumplings."
"okay."
Li Yifu looked around and whispered: "One more cook here can fill the house with guests. How much can the cook earn for a day?"
Di Renjie chuckled and said, "One hundred dollars a day."
"What?" Li Yifu stood up and shouted: "Man! Come here!"
The waiter from the store came over in a hurry and showed great respect to the two men in official uniforms, "I wonder if the guest has anything to say."
Li Yifu sat down again and asked: "How much money do you give the cook for a day?"
The boy replied: "One hundred dollars a day."
Xu Jingzong took a breath, what is the concept of one hundred dollars a day? Everyone has been busy in the court for so many years, how much money does it cost in one day?
This world is really evil, a cook can make so much money.
The waiter added: "There are not many cooks who graduated from Lishan Technical Institute this year, only about twenty, and many of them were expelled by the palace. Our store looked for help from the palace, and then we found a cook.
"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Our store has sent its two children to Lishan Technical College, and they will have their own cooks next year."
Not long after, the beggar's chicken was served on the table.
Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu had been busy all morning and were already hungry.
Who would have thought that people taught by Lishan would be so extraordinary that they would become popular among the outside world as soon as they graduate, and they would be so popular that people would be in a hurry.
After eating the beggar's chicken, Xu Jingzong thought about it. In fact, he was thinking about it while eating.
Of course, Lishan’s cooking skills are incredible, but at that time many people couldn’t taste them.
Now as long as some of the skills are used, Lishan Technical College can become famous.
The county magistrate is not worried about how many students will be able to enroll. As long as the first batch of students come out, they will definitely be competed by all parties.
For Zhang Yang, all this happened easily and effortlessly.
Just as Xu Jingzong is thinking now, on the official road that intersects Lishan County and Lantian County, many people are gathered in front of Lishan Technical College. The crowd is so noisy that no one can hear what is being said clearly. They
With your money bag in your hand and the money you paid for school, you can come here to learn how to make a living.
Li Tai had to stand on the wall and shout to everyone: "There are no quotas this year!"
The words just fell, a few moments later.
There was silence, and after a few breaths there was noisy shouting, and everyone was rushing to the door.
Li Tai pointed to the guard at the top of the door and said, "Hold on to me! Don't let them in."
"Your Highness, King Wei! Don't worry!"
A dozen guards were holding the door, their faces flushed, trying their best to see the door suddenly trying to open, only to be pushed back again.
Li Tai shouted again: "Although there are no quotas, Lishan will arrange a job for you!"
After the words fell and there was a brief silence, everyone started shouting again.
"There's nothing we can do! There's really nothing we can do." Li Tai murmured to himself, scratching the back of his head in distress, maintaining his balance and walking on the wall. He came to the other side of the wall and jumped off the high wall, towards Long Wu.
He ran quickly to the army camp.
After explaining his intention to General Li Jing, Li Tai led a group of soldiers and horses and rushed towards the academy.
In front of the soldiers holding swords and armor, the group of villagers gave up and dispersed, not daring to say a word.
Li Tai rolled up his sleeves, picked up a roll of paper, and said loudly: "Listen up! I now have a roll of paper in my hand. You can answer your questions on the paper and write down your talents and relevant resumes."
"What's your resume?"
Someone couldn't help but ask.
Li Tai calmed down his breathing and said loudly: "Resume is where you have worked, and your place of birth and residence must be written down one by one. You are not allowed to report lies. Once it is verified that you have concealed or lied, you will not do so again.
Accepted!"
After shouting these words, Li Tai handed the paper in his hand to the soldiers on the side and asked them to divide it and take notes one by one.
The crowd dispersed in twos and threes, and those who could not write were asked to write for them.
Lishan has enrolled 300 students this year, all young people around the age of fifteen, many of whom are from Lantian and Gaoling counties.
On the one hand, it is to promote cooperation between Taifu Temple and the counties in Guanzhong, and on the other hand, these interests are intertwined.
As a result, Lishan's position in the counties in Guanzhong becomes even more important.
Li Tai wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the guards blocking the door. They had collapsed on the ground from exhaustion. The wooden door finally failed to hold up and fell to the ground with a creak.
"Can I enroll after I finish writing this?" someone who was writing asked.
"No, this year's quota is full, so hurry up next year." Seeing that some people were dissatisfied, Li Tai said: "We will expand the school next year to ensure that we will recruit more students than this year."
Some people have already left in twos and threes, but there are still many who stay.
So at night, there was a grand scene on the official road outside Lishan Mountain. There were torches here, and three or five people sat around and wrote on a piece of paper.
They didn't leave until dawn.
Li Tai didn't close his eyes all night, and he and his bodyguard came to Shangguan Yi holding thick stacks of papers.
Seeing the amount of paper, Shangguan Yi smiled and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Wei has suffered."
Li Tai's hands hung down feebly and he sat with eyes blank, "Brother Shangguan, what do you think my brother-in-law wants these for?"
Shangguan Yi picked up a table and looked at it. It contained his place of origin, name, resume and place of residence.
He explained: "The county prince regards manpower as a resource, and resources are like food, which need to be dispatched and coordinated. In fact, as early as January this year, the county prince sent people to inquire about the situation in each county. His Highness King Wei thought that last winter
Did Lishan really do nothing?"
"What kind of person is the County Marquis? He is always ahead of many people. When the court was still worried about food taxes, the County Marquis began to inquire about the status of workshops in various counties in Guanzhong. While the court was still making arrangements
By the time various regulations are put in place, Lishan has already grasped the employment situation in the coming year."
"If you want to take five steps and take three steps, plan things first. The so-called..."
Just as he was about to continue speaking, Shangguan Yi heard Li Tai's snoring and whispered: "It seems that he was exhausted last night."
Looking at the guard again, I don't know when he sat on the ground and leaned against the wall and fell asleep.
There is also a small bed here where you can take a nap when you are tired. Shangguan Yi helped the dazed Li Tai and several guards to rest on the bed first.
He spread out a huge chart and began to classify and summarize these.
Lishan's production and manufacturing has developed for six years, and these six years have laid a good foundation for Lishan.
Lishan's road to mastering wealth has just begun.
Zhang Yang's goal is so big that even Shangguan Yi can't figure out how far he has to achieve it.
Some people say that Zhang Yang has very little humanity, that he is a monster, or that he is not a human being.
Because no one will dispatch manpower as a resource.
But since ancient times, corvee recruitment has always regarded human resources as resources.
What the emperor can do, why can't Lishan do it?
It's just that Lishan found the best opportunity in the era of light corvee and low taxes, and seized the future wealth from the gap between government and law.
Shangguan Yi looked at the roster in front of him and became more and more excited. This excitement came from the fact that he was doing something he had never done before.
Involving areas that had never been touched before, a brand new concept and governance method unfolded in his mind.
If this approach is effective, Guanzhong will surely become richer and stronger.
Only by retaining wealth can people be retained. If the people were retained, the emperor would not leave Chang'an City.
In this way, the construction of the northwest will be a matter of course.
Of course, these are all future plans. Shangguan Yi can no longer figure out Zhang Yang's thoughts, nor can he keep up with Zhang Yang's thoughts and steps.
It’s good to learn more now, as it will supplement your lack of knowledge.
Production methods and scheduling methods that have never been recorded in those classics and scriptures have been implemented in Lishan for a long time.
They have no idea how far Lishan has progressed now.
Li Tai woke up from sleep, and when he opened his eyes, it was already dark. He pushed away the guard's foot that was pressing on his stomach, and then broke away from the guard's arms.
After walking to Shangguan Yi's table and taking a sip of tea, Li Tai felt that he was alive and asked in a low voice: "What time is it?"
Shangguan Yi wrote the list and replied, "It's just past midnight."
"Are you still not going to rest?"
As he spoke, Shangguan Yi kept writing the pen in his hand, "I just took a nap and sorted this part out, so I went back to rest."
