Mathematics in this era is another matter. Although it is also calculation, I feel that the wording is more important than the calculation. It is quite confusing.
Xue Xiang, Su Song and the man named Jia Xian seemed to be having a lively discussion...
It's just that Jia Xian has such achievements in mathematics, and he actually has a military title? This is what Zhao Xi should consider.
Not to mention the low-level officials who were given the gift, even Zhao Xi had not paid attention to them, let alone the original trial court.
That's the thing. Most of them are people who have done little hard work and no one cares about it.
It's just this civil and military sequence... Well, let's do it bit by bit, let's get over the Qingmiao method first and then talk about it.
Chu Yan was right, it was indeed a great opportunity.
Zhao Xi asked them in detail about the focus of the three masters and apprentices... Well, it kind of means sharing the joys and sorrows, the three masters and apprentices came together.
I originally wanted to be punished, but I didn't expect that chickens and dogs would ascend to heaven.
Chu Yan, borrowing the help of his apprentice, directly joined forces with Si Tianjian.
As for Jia Xian, needless to say, Gongfangcheng directly wanted it. Even the matter of Jia Xian's civil service was handled by Su Song and Xue Xiang.
At their level, they are still in a separate system like Gongfang City. A low-level civil servant really doesn't need Zhao Xi's favor. He can just sign the memorial in Gongfang City.
As for Chu Yan's other apprentice, Zhu Ji, Zhao Xi felt that Si Tianjian did not lack him, and could offer math courses in the martial arts hall.
In that way, your own eye-twitching technique can be taught in the martial arts hall.
Another question is, is there some reason to popularize Arabic numerals?
To be honest, the current counting method is really not very convenient, and it is too painful for accountants.
Alas... Identity is a barrier! If you are a scholar or something, it doesn't matter what you propose, you will only mention the hope.
But I am an emperor, and if I do some things, not only will there be no benefit, but I will also lose points.
Zhao Xi doesn't care about fame, but he really annoys the official, and there's nothing you can do about it.
…
The investigation in Ruzhou was very fast. In other words, the officials in Ruzhou were very bachelors. They knew that denial was useless and that the blame was inevitable, so they confessed quickly.
They wanted to win leniency, but they underestimated the strength of the court, or the anger of the officials.
The punishment this time is neither demotion nor a fine of copper, it is a real loss of fortune.
Although the imperial dynasty gave preferential treatment to scholar-bureaucrats and the salaries of officials were also very high, it was not at the same level as the taxation of a state or a government.
This is due to the benevolence of the officials, who did not allow them to make up for three to five years, ten to eight years, but only one year... Well, this also requires selling the house and land.
It’s okay not to make up for it, Wang Xueshi said, Chen Changzhi is the precedent...
At this point, there is a conclusion as to whether the cultivated land in the country has increased or decreased.
In fact, even if the Ruzhou matter is not dealt with, the conclusion will be the same.
Who would have thought that more than ten years ago, when the official was still the prince, the number of cultivated fields in the dynasty was already known due to the minting of new coins.
At that time... At that time, because they heard about the relationship between coins and grain that the prince said, the local officials thought that the number of cultivated fields reported would be related to the number of new coins sent to the state capital. Therefore, they used a little bit of caution when reporting the number of cultivated fields.
Exaggerated, using a little romantic vocabulary.
Now that it has been taken out by the officials and compared with the current figures... everyone has tried their best to be bold, but in the end they have not been bolder than the speed of land annexation.
There is another fact that we have to face. Except for those who were taken away by the late emperor, most of the original state and county officials were crowded in the court.
Nowadays, the chief officials of prefectures, counties, and counties, before facing their superiors and division commanders, show their admiration to their superiors and division commanders, which is like a torrential river!
What the hell? They have taken all the roads, and now they have no way out! They still have to cooperate... After all, there is no choice between slapping yourself in the face and slapping your boss in the face.
"This is a comparative document between two times of plowing..."
Zhao Xi convened a meeting and threw a comparative article about the sharp decrease in cultivated land in the country and dynasty to the princes.
This is not the kind of document that exists in the court today. It was written by Zhao Xi instructing Gongfangcheng in the form of a research report for later generations.
The structure is clear, the language is down-to-earth, not too fancy, it just talks about farming.
Not to mention the government officials, even women and children can understand it as long as they are literate.
"The investigation by the officials, Yin County and the counties that implemented the Green Crops Law is not over yet..."
Han Qi felt that the Guan family was about to set the tone...
Also, the cultivated land in the country has dropped sharply, almost to the point of a cliff. This has shown that it is imperative to implement the Green Crops Law.
But in Han Qi's opinion, there seems to be little connection between the decrease in the number of cultivated fields in the country and the Green Crops Law.
"The Yinxian investigation is a Yinxian investigation. I just want to ask you, how do you feel about the fact that the cultivated land in the Guochao Dynasty has dropped sharply? Or, should the imperial court do something about the situation of the cultivated land in the Guochao Dynasty?"
No one can avoid this question, and no one can refute it.
"Officials and ministers are also very anxious about the state of the country's farmland. However, the introduction of the green seedling method will not increase the farmland for farmers. On the contrary, due to the superiority of officials, they will forcibly allocate land, and finally intensify mergers and acquisitions.
As a result, the land cultivated by the two taxes of the country and the dynasty becomes more and more..."
What Han Qi said this time was reasonable, at least it was in line with Zhao Xi's heart.
He proposed to solve the situation of sharp decline in cultivated land, but did not intend to fully accept and implement the Green Crops Law.
To solve the sharp decline in cultivated land, we should consider how to open up more farmland to increase the amount of cultivated land in the country. This should be to encourage reclamation of wasteland...
It may not be easy to seize the land that has been annexed from the mouths of those powerful officials and rich surnames.
The Green Crops Law, let alone not being strict and perfect, even if it was perfected, it was only a method of intercepting water flow and restricting annexation. It could not increase the cultivated land of the country.
"Then what?"
That's right, and what next? You can't be a political minister and only have the idea of blocking the Green Seed Law in your mind, right? Have you no ideas on how to change the situation of the country?
"I would like to know if the Political Affairs Hall has thought about this situation and discussed how to change it?"
"Since the Green Seed Method is said to be inappropriate for the time, do you gentlemen, do you have any ideas that are suitable for the time? Or should we just look at it like this and know what is going on? Then everyone will open their eyes and close their eyes. What should I do?"
Zhao Xi almost said: What is the use of the imperial court in supporting you people?
Judging from that statistical table and the data from more than ten years ago, it is almost certain that farmland has declined sharply.
The reason why Zhao Xi waited until Ruzhou officials were dealt with before discussing the matter was to give the political hall and even the court time to think about a solution.
What is the result? Everyone only has the Green Crops Law in their eyes, or they only want to stop the Green Crops Law to ensure that their family can continue to annex the land... Can people really be so shameless? Can they really worry about the country only in words?
Concerned about the people?
"I have a method..."
Zhao Xi was extremely suspicious. Wang Anshi had been waiting for this moment.
When the ministers of the Political Affairs Hall were held accountable by the officials, and when they were all speechless when questioned by the officials, Wang Anshi really wanted to come up with a solution at this time. Neither the officials nor the ministers of the Political Affairs Hall would do anything.
to object.
From Wang Anshi's point of view, this was to relieve the embarrassment of Zhengshitang. Of course, it also had the idea of slapping someone in the face.
But, Lao Wang, do you know that what you do is very annoying?
