This kind of tool for drilling holes around a rope was used by Li Changfeng when he was a child in his hometown in his previous life. It is an ancient drilling tool that has long been eliminated by the times.
The biggest feature of its structure is that there is a heavy wooden block on the central axis, and the rotational inertia of the wooden block is used to make holes in the wood.
It is a tool commonly used by old carpenters in the old days.
Li Changfeng had also seen this kind of tool in this world when he was renovating the store several times. The design idea was similar, but the shape was slightly different.
It's not surprising that the kid has seen such a tool.
But it is not simple to be able to invent a toy for yourself based on this kind of tool, which fully demonstrates his ability to observe things.
He made this toy himself, and his hands-on ability is extraordinary. You must know that this is a child of seven or eight years old.
This child has great potential. The scientific research institute needs talents with strong observation and practical skills. Li Changfeng has a love for talents.
"Very good. You don't have to go to the coal mine. You can go back to the capital with me."
Li Changfeng decided to give this child to Liang Dafu for training, and he might become a pillar of the scientific research institute in the future.
The little boy was naturally overjoyed, and the other refugees were only envious.
Li Changfeng then asked his subordinates to provide these refugees with food and clothing to keep out the cold, then got in the car and left.
As for the officers and soldiers of the Wucheng Army and Horse Division who were still kneeling, he didn't bother to pay attention to them. It would be better if he didn't cut them down on the spot.
However, it is impossible to let them go.
Such people must be severely punished.
After returning home, Li Changfeng took a comfortable hot bath under the care of Bingbing and Xiaotong, and then returned to the bedroom to sleep.
Because he and the two women worked too hard, Li Changfeng slept until almost noon the next day before waking up.
After scribbling something to eat, Li Changfeng came to the palace.
What happened to the little boy yesterday inspired him a lot. He had something to discuss with Emperor Qianwu.
Emperor Qianwu was very happy to see Li Changfeng and scolded him with a smile: "You brat, you are finally willing to come see me."
Li Changfeng chuckled: "Isn't that right? I came here to see you, Father, and wanted to tell you something by the way."
Emperor Qianwu snorted and said: "I know that you brat is not that filial, are you here because of the refugees?"
Li Changfeng originally planned to talk about this matter, so he nodded and said, "Yes, it's about refugees."
"I already know this. The snow has been a bit heavy this year, and houses have collapsed in some areas. Fortunately, there are not many people affected. I have arranged for people to provide disaster relief, so the problem is not big."
Having said this, Emperor Qianwu paused for a moment, looked at Li Changfeng with a look of relief and praised: "Your work-for-relief approach is very good. It has given these people a way to live and solved a problem for the court. I am very happy."
Li Changfeng smiled casually in response, and then changed the subject.
"There is another thing. The people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division actually drove away the refugees and even threatened to kill them. Father, do you know?"
Emperor Qianwu arranged a large number of experts to protect Li Changfeng. He knew exactly what Li Changfeng encountered every day, and he was already filled with anger.
Now that Li Changfeng mentioned it again, his face suddenly darkened.
"I already know that in order to whitewash the peace, the people of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division actually drove away and beat the refugees. I have asked Gao Dali to investigate, and all those who deserve to be punished will be severely punished!"
Emperor Qianwu's voice was cold and contained murderous intent.
The Five Cities Military and Horse Division is actually five departments.
They are the East City Troops and Horses Command Department, the Nancheng Troops and Horses Command Department, the West City Troops and Horses Command Department, the North City Troops and Horses Command Department and the Zhongcheng Troops and Horses Command Department.
The Fifth Division is responsible for the daily security maintenance of the capital. They are independent of each other and supervise each other. There is no subordinate relationship but more of a competitive relationship. This is a system inherited from the previous dynasty.
Which jurisdiction has good public security will be recognized by the superiors, which will be beneficial to the official career.
The influx of refugees will inevitably intensify regional security problems, and the Five Cities Military and Horse Division will drive away the refugees.
This move will undoubtedly arouse public resentment. When Emperor Qianwu found out, he became furious and decided to completely clean up the institution.
Seeing that Emperor Qianwu had made arrangements, Li Changfeng stopped talking nonsense, gave a thumbs up and praised: "Father is wise!"
Then the conversation changed and he asked: "Father, what do you think of the current imperial examination system in Daqian?"
Li Changfeng jumped on the topic so fast that Emperor Qianwu couldn't keep up. He was startled for a moment and said, "It's pretty good. Why are you asking about this all of a sudden?"
"Is it really good?"
"If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Li Changfeng looked solemn: "I think the current imperial examination system is very problematic!"
Emperor Qianwu's expression suddenly became serious, he frowned slightly and asked, "Tell me what's the problem."
Li Changfeng raised a finger.
"First, what is tested in the current imperial examination system? It is the words of Confucian sages. Apart from writing and writing, how many of these people have real talents and practical work? Can Daqian prosper by relying on these people alone? No!"
"Father, take a look at the scientific research institutes of your ministers. How much do they know about the words of saints? But they have made indelible contributions to the development of Daqian!"
Emperor Qianwu thought it was true and nodded involuntarily.
Li Changfeng raised his second finger.
"Secondly, now that we are working hard, the imperial examination is the only opportunity for the people to change their destiny. How many people do not work all day long and study the books of sages. These people have never really touched the people's livelihood!"
"Father, think about it, can a person like this who only knows the principles in books truly understand the people and their needs? Can such a person help you govern the world?"
These words touched Emperor Qianwu's heart.
There are indeed many officials in the court who can only talk decent words but have little practical ability. This has also led to the incomplete implementation of many of his decrees and even difficulty in implementation.
Emperor Qianwu looked thoughtful.
Li Changfeng raised his third finger.
"Last point, the current imperial examination system has become somewhat regulated. Teacher-sect relations are prevalent and nepotism is serious. For many years, students have regarded themselves as disciples of certain powerful ministers, which has led to the serious idea of forming cliques and forming cliques to protect each other. Father, please think about it. Look, how dangerous is this?"
As soon as he said this, Emperor Qianwu showed deep helplessness on his face.
How could he not know about the teacher-sect relationship and nepotism?
How could he not know about forming cliques?
There have been wise kings in every dynasty, how could they not know?
However, there is nothing he can do!
How can the imperial examination system, which has been passed down for thousands of years, be so easy to change?
Emperor Qianwu sighed and said helplessly: "Changfeng, how could I not know what you said? But there is no way around it."
Li Changfeng smiled.
"Who says there is no solution? Just reform the education system."
Emperor Qianwu became interested: "How to change it?"
