I am the king of the dead

Chapter 304 Rewarding Another Extraordinary Merit Card
On the Tianming Festival, the Great Ming Jingshi will put the lights on for seven days until the end of the Shangyuan Festival. There will be a lantern festival on the Shangyuan Festival. During these seven days, the common people can come and go as they please without a curfew.

Tianming Festival means that the sky is dawn, the sun rises again, the Great Ming is established, and there is no need to suffer from Yuan's lenient disaster.

The disaster of leniency is severe.

Those scholar-bureaucrats are always trying to fool the emperor and act according to their rules, such as Li Daitao's rigidity, changing lenience to benevolence, such as the wind of stopping investment and offering since the Yuan Dynasty.

Zhitouxian means that the students of Shilin, under the leadership of Yan Shenggong, constantly resisted the conscripts of the Ming Dynasty established by Zhu Yuanzhang, established an unbreakable alliance, and finally formed a wind.

Wind power, in Ming Dynasty, refers to the power of wind constitution, the power of public opinion.

Obedience to the emperor's edict will be despised as a flatterer; confronting the emperor is a noble and upright character; proposing to increase taxes will definitely be called a dog.

This trend continued until the end of the Ming Dynasty, and it was still repeatedly banned in the fifth year of Tianqi.

In the fifth year of Tianqi, Dong Yingju was in charge of farming affairs from Tianjin to Shanhaiguan.

Dong Yingju was an honest man. At that time, the Ming Dynasty was defeated, Guangning was lost, and countless Liaodong people fled into the pass.

Dong Yingju resettled [-] Northeast refugees in Shuntian, Yongping, Hejian, and Baoding within one year.

He used the money sent by Emperor Tianqi to buy more than 12 mu of civilian land, including a total of 18 mu of idle land, recruited refugees to cultivate, opened canals, and repaired embankments.

Together with the dormitories, warehouses, workshops, means of transportation and other equipment, they finally earned 2 taels of silver, and 5000 million shi of grain was returned to the court.

The following year, Dong Yingju was dismissed because of party struggle.

Those people who helped Dong Yingju resettle the Liao people, and all the villagers who sold fields, rented warehouses, workshops, cattle, horses, and carts, were beaten by their parents and officials [-] times.

The crime is also to sacrifice.

Dong Yingju said in the memorandum: "It is unworthy to have a secretary to intimidate the scholars and the people. Those who give the land to the village are offered as offerings, and those who intend to develop the village are criticized as flattery. It is a pity for this country. What is the matter? If you are against each other, it is flattery to help the village. , then we must use the anti-village as the wind power. If we use the anti-village as the wind power, the country will have no villages, and the breath will change and it will be possible.”

Among the villagers who helped Dong Yingju to farm the fields, "Chen Wenbiao was condemned to death several times, sobbing to his ministers and saying: The county magistrate said that I surrendered my old ears, and the ministers were extremely miserable."

Chen Wenbiao was finally beaten to death by local officials.

Cui Guangbi of another Cai village rented a warehouse and was hit with a [-]-big board, which is the so-called: "Criticism: Why did you give the house to Iraq?"

This ethos of stopping donations runs through the historical materials of the Ming Dynasty.

But whenever the imperial court wants to do something, it will be stopped by this trend of stopping investment and offering. Shilin calls it Qingliu, and Zhenyi directly advises.

Zhu Qiyu received his own gift "Simple Prescriptions for Hygiene Prevention" on Tianming Festival, as well as Hu Wei's contribution.

Hu Wei has always planned to donate this book, but Zhu Qiyu has been refusing to celebrate the Longevity Festival, so Hu Wei has been lingering in the imperial hospital, checking some simple formulas in this book again.

Hu Wei was scolded because he dedicated himself to the emperor every day.

During the reign of Jingtai, compared with the reign of Tianqi, the wind of stopping investment and offering was stronger, and there was even a tendency to make noise in the court.

After all, there are still the old and young of the Yuan Dynasty working hard.

Hu Yi chose to tear his face apart. If you call me immoral, I will slap you in the face with sincerity and no virtue all day long to see who is immoral.

Zhu Qiyu asked with a smile: "Hu Shangshu, why do you write in common words and idioms?"

The vernacular, what Hu Ming wrote is all the vernacular.

For example, mosquitoes and flies are the first cause of malaria, fill in gullies, pools of water inside and outside the courtyard, clean up stagnant water in ponds and turn them into living water, use mugwort and wormwood to regularly fumigate indoors, etc.

They are all in vernacular that ordinary people can understand.

Hu Yan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Mencius said: Those who gain the Tao will help more, and those who lose the Way will have little help. If you have little help, you will be surrounded by relatives. If you help more, the world will follow."

"The most common people in this world are those who don't know how to read. If I say this in a polite way, who will I show it to?"

Hu Wei can always find a foothold for His Majesty and himself in terms of etiquette, such as this sentence, the illiterate people in the world, those so-called lazy people and unemployed people.

They have the largest number, the most bitter cold, and the most plagued by disasters and diseases.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Yu Qian, who was smiling all over his face.

Who pierced the window paper?
It was Yu Qian's investigation report, and it was Yu Qian who told His Majesty that [-]% of the peasants and unemployed people accounted for it.

In fact, on top of the previous announcement, Zhu Qiyu summed up the three issues that are most concerned about the capital of the Ming Dynasty and the Kyushu outside the mountains.

The first five are magical and witchcraft tricks to fool the common people into drinking talisman water;

The latter two are easy to handle, they can be hanged, they can be investigated and prosecuted according to law, and they can be used as an example to others.

But what about the first?

The common people, especially those who are undeveloped, can only seek the skills of witches and Gu, pin their hopes on the illusory gods, drink a bowl of talisman water, and die in the end.

Hu Yi came up with a solution, and this solution is a practical solution.

"Hu Shangshu, I won't be the only one who will be scolded at that time." Zhu Qiyu continued to walk forward and said with a smile.

However, Hu Wei glanced at the Qigong card in front of him, and said with a smile: "It's an honor to be honored when it's prosperous, and it's even lucky."

"The minister will be scolded, so why be afraid of saying a few more words?"

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Qiyu, Yu Qian, and Hu Wei couldn't help laughing.

In this fucking world, good people will be pointed at by guns!Good people will be scolded bloody!

Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath and said: "Green waters and green mountains are in vain, Hua Tuo is helpless! Thousands of villages leave arrows, and thousands of households Xiao Shu ghosts sing."

"Sit on the ground and travel [-] miles a day, survey the sky and look at a thousand rivers in the distance. The cowherd wants to ask the plague god about it, and the same joys and sorrows are gone."

Yu Qian frowned and said, "Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this poem?"

A majestic poem, but Yu Qian has never heard of it.

"Qilu, send the plague god away." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile, "It wasn't written by me, but by Taizu."

Yu Qian looked at Hu Wei, and asked full of doubts: "Emperor Gao also wrote this poem? Yu has never heard of it."

Hu Wei stopped in his tracks, stared blankly for a long time and said, "No, our Emperor Gao has never written this song."

"Well, during the battle of Jingnan, the Nangong fire burned a lot of ancient books, and they may have been lost at that time, which is not unusual."

""History" said: Dong Zhuo will cause chaos, drive westward, historians will discard it, and old writings will be lost."

The chaos of war has led to the loss of old texts, which is a common occurrence.

profession.

Yu Qian wanted to ask again, but Hu Wei gave Yu Qian a look.

This poem is majestic, and it is very suitable for the occasion. It is obviously not written by ordinary people. It is well known that His Majesty has no poetic talent. Who wrote it?
The master behind His Majesty!

Yu Qian, if you ask again, aren't you asking who the master behind His Majesty is?

What is the reason for inquiring about so many secrets of His Majesty? As a courtier, it is a crime of disrespect to inquire about the emperor Xinmi.

Besides, His Majesty has made the Tai'an Palace impenetrable because he doesn't want the courtiers to know how many bowls of rice His Majesty eats?
Hu Yan followed His Majesty's pace closely, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, how about inscribing this poem on the frontispiece of the Simple Health and Prevention Recipe? It can also cheer up the people and send the plague god away!"

Zhu Qiyu nodded, agreeing with this opinion, he has never copied any poems, and he is not a young man of the Qing Dynasty, who has written tens of thousands of poems in his life.

He just expressed his feelings about the damage of the plague from what he saw and heard, and he couldn't help but read a few lines of poems.

When the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty left the Taimiao, they were divided into four distinct groups.

The emperor, Zhu Jianji, Yu Qian, Hu Wei, Jin Lian, Zhang Mao, Yang Jie and others walked in front of them.

Wang Zhi, Yu Shiyue, Chen Ruyan, Shi Pu, and Wang Wen followed closely behind in the second wave.

The third wave was Lin Xiu, the eunuch of the Ministry of Rites, Wang Hu, the ambassador of the Du Branch, Wu Jing, the head of the Imperial Academy, and many other important members of the Salt and Iron Conference.

The last wave was the censors from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Imperial Academy from the Imperial Academy, students from the Imperial College, etc. These were the most numerous. Although they were superficially respectful, they could still be heard whispering.

Zhu Qiyu arrived at Chengtianmen to signal that today's Daqing is over and he can leave, but Zhu Qiyu's business is not over yet.

Because of the good news from the Bingzhan Bureau, the matter of pressing silver coins was temporarily postponed last year. The hydraulic screw press for the Qigong brand project was finally completed.

Zhu Qiyu was going to take a cart to the Shijingshan factory area, where a large hydraulic screw press was built relying on the Jinshui River.

In Daming this thing is called a water peg.

Zhu Qiyu took the first and second waves of courtiers into the chariot and headed for Shijingchang.

Chen Youde, who improved the manpower screw press, and put forward the idea of ​​a hydraulic screw press.

During the New Year's Eve last year, Chen Youde confidently said that he would win the Qigong card, but the delay lasted for a year.

Zhu Qiyu came to Shijingchang.

Compared with last year's Shijing Factory, this year's road is wider. Even during the Chinese New Year, there is still an endless stream of horse-drawn carriages coming to Shijing Factory to buy farm tools, coal and other items.

With Jin Yiwei opening the way, Zhu Qiyu's car slowly walked to the bank of Jinshui River.

The source of the Jinshui River is the Daming Xishan Mausoleum, which was the royal cemetery delineated by Emperor Wen.

Under the cemetery, there are tile-roofed houses and waterwheels five feet high, standing on both sides of the river.

water reed.

It started in the Western Han Dynasty at the earliest time, where the people of the mountain country and those who live by the river did what they did, the method of attacking rice saves ten times the manpower.

This thing is a big water wheel, which uses the water potential to convert it into kinetic energy. Its advantage is to save manpower.

This is why Chen Youde has always wanted to use water power for forging.

There are many water reels in Daming, as well as ground reels, livestock reels, ship reels, etc., which were originally made by using water power to crush materials such as medicines, spices, ores, bamboo pulp and so on.

Chen Youde knew that His Majesty was coming today, and when he saw the chariot, he rushed up to greet him, bowed his head and said: "Chen Youde, Your Majesty is here to see you."

"Pingshen." Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "Chen Dagong, tell me about this hydraulic screw press."

Chen Youde took out an extremely delicate all-steel model from the plate next to him, and he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is the impeller, the impeller is stimulated by the water, the impeller rotates, the flywheel rotates, and the flywheel box rotates to spiral. Down, you can imprint."

Chen Youde put it simply, just this one flywheel box, I don't know how long it took him.

Chen Youde said: "Please look, Your Majesty, when it is upright, the mold spirals downward, when it stops, the mold pauses, and when it is inverted, it spirals upward."

"In the past, dozens of people pushed the wheel, but now only one person is needed."

Chen Youde moved the control lever, Zhu Qiyu looked at it for a long time and said: "Troubleshooting."

Hearing these words, Chen Youde bowed his head tremblingly and said, "Serve His Majesty."

For the past year, he has been soaking in this hydraulic screw press all day, and he is very sure that his idea can be successful, but many times he falls short, either because the impeller is too big, or there is a problem with the meshing of the flywheel.

These craftsmen who he led in the military battle bureau worked it out bit by bit.

However, in the overall atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty, artisans have only minimal knowledge and are things learned through hard work. This is an affirmation.

Zhu Qiyu picked up the small and exquisite model and was amazed.

Qin Shihuang has a figure, and Zhu Qiyu has a figure, but it is just two palm-sized figures.

"Can you tell me how this is reversed?" Zhu Qiyu is not very proficient in machinery.

Chen Youde was a little flustered, he hesitated for a moment and said: "Your servant is overbearing."

Chen Youde took the model carefully, and started to dismantle it. He removed the so-called flywheel and said: "Your Majesty, this is actually very simple."

"This is the impeller force shaft, with a gear. When it is in the right position, dial it once. If the gears mesh, it will rotate forward. If you dial it back, the gears will no longer mesh, and it will not rotate."

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "I can understand this, but how to reverse it?"

Chen Youde said with a smile: "Actually, the mystery lies in the bridge tooth in the middle."

He flicked lightly, and actually started to turn upside down.

Zhu Qiyu instantly understood that it was so simple.

It only needs to add a bridge tooth to realize turning and turning, forward and reverse.

But with such a simple bridge tooth, it took Chen Youde many days and nights to solve these problems.

"Since it can be parked upright, why not just call it a transmission." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile, "Good stuff!"

Chen Youde bowed his head and said, "Thank you Your Majesty for giving me the name!"

"Can I go in and have a look?" Zhu Qiyu has already been stopped from experience.

The Coal Wells Division wouldn't let him in, the Iron and Steel Division wouldn't let him in, and the Coal Division wouldn't let him in. I don't know if I can enter the place where the silver coins are minted by the Military Bureau.

Chen Youde said with a smile: "Of course."

Zhu Qiyu walked into the tile-roofed house and saw the bustling craftsmen busy. The screw press machine, which originally required the largest number of people, has been changed to a hydraulic screw press machine.

"There is also a human press here?" Zhu Qiyu asked curiously.

"This is a screw press for compression molding. There are not many hydraulic presses, so human or animal power will be used instead." Chen Youde explained hastily.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the animal bed, and kept nodding. The cart was pulled by a donkey.

Chen Youde continued: "If all the battles are transferred here, you can press [-] silver coins a day, Your Majesty."

Zhu Qiyu was delighted when he heard this. When he settled the accounts last time, he said that as long as the military situation is doubled, at least 30 years later, the imperial court will no longer owe the world money!
good thing.

But Zhu Qiyu frowned. With the development of the times, Ming Dynasty will inevitably need more money. Can this debt really be repaid?

Zhu Qiyu walked out of the workshop, and said with a smile: "I have given you a miraculous card, I hope you will continue to work hard in the future."

Zhu Qiyu took the miracle card that he had prepared long ago, hung it on Chen Youde's chest and said with a smile, "I am so relieved."
