Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 528 Contracting Bamboo Forest for Ten Years, Scientific Talents Dating?
In the morning, the sun is shining brightly.

After breakfast, Hao Guangming sent off Auntie Zhu and Auntie Zhu one after another. Hao Guangming took a Bluetooth headset, a shovel and a hoe, and prepared to double the vegetable garden in the yard and plant some vegetables when the spring warmed up.

If there is something wrong with Aimee Zhu, you can tell him that he can hear it through the Bluetooth headset.

Hao Guangming did farm work when he was a child, and although he is unfamiliar with it now, he still doesn't know how to do it.

What's more, there are various teaching videos on the Internet to watch.

At about nine o'clock, someone outside suddenly called him.

"Is Hao Guangming at home?"

Hearing that the voice was an old man from his hometown, Hao Guangming immediately went to open the courtyard door, and saw an old man in his 60s who looked slightly familiar.

"you are?"

"You child, you can't even recognize your second master Yang?" The old man seemed slightly dissatisfied.

Hao Guangming still didn't know who Second Master Yang was, but because he knew him well, he was sure that he belonged to the village (not the Wollongong village group).

Then he laughed and said, "Oh, it turned out to be Erye Yang. What are you looking for?"

Erye Yang said: "I'm not a village cadre now. The bamboo grove contracted by your grandfather just expires this year, and Grandpa Ni is gone. I'll come here and ask, will your family continue to contract this bamboo grove? If you don't, the village may Take it back and give it to someone else."

Of course it will be contracted.

Hao Guangming thought to himself.

But he said in his mouth: "How many years is this bamboo forest contracted at a time? How much money do you have to give to the village every year?"

Yang Erye said: "In principle, the contract period can be within 20 years. In the past, your grandfather would contract once every five years, and gave the village 2000 yuan every year.

However, the old man who took care of your grandfather in the village gave a low price. If you want to contract it, you have to pay 5000 yuan a year.

You know, the price of goods now has almost doubled compared with five or ten years ago. "

Hao Guangming said: "This bamboo forest is where my grandfather lived for most of his life, and even built a house in it. As a grandson, I have to keep this place as a memory.

How about this, I will contract the bamboo forest for ten years.There should be a contract in the village, right?When the contract was brought, I signed it and paid the money immediately. "

"Okay." Second Master Yang laughed as soon as he heard it, showing his smoky yellow teeth, "Second Master will go back to the village and ask someone to get you a contract."

In fact, the bamboo forest in Wollongong is relatively small, and there are not many big bamboo households in the village, town or even the county, so old bamboo craftsmen like Grandpa Hao Guangming will use some.

However, the increase in the price of collective assets in the village is a hard requirement. After all, rising prices are a fact.So when he came, no one for Mr. Yang would take over for Hao Guangming.

Unexpectedly, Hao Guangming not only took over, but also contracted for ten years at a time, which is tantamount to letting him overfulfill the organizational tasks.

Could he be unhappy?

Second Master Yang didn't know. After he left, Hao Guangming closed the courtyard door and muttered, "If it wasn't for fear that a 20-year contract would easily arouse suspicion, I would definitely contract for 20 years."

In addition, this incident also reminded Hao Guangming that this bamboo forest does not belong to his family.

However, he may be able to operate the old house left by his grandfather and keep it for a longer period of time...

Forbidden City, Hall of Martial Arts.

Auntie Zhu gave Liu Shuying a booklet called "Science Special Issue ([-])", and said, "Mu Ping, do you think this book is easy to understand?"

This booklet is as big as the page of Da Ming Pao, about [-] to [-] pages in size. It is the special issue of Da Ming Pao for the rural examination of science that Fang Yizhi adapted from the samples given by Hao Guangming after taking over the task.

Liu Shuying flipped through a few pages, fearing that Auntie Zhu would wait for a long time, she said, "With my humble experience, I can probably understand [-] to [-] percent of the first three or four pages at first glance, but if I study patiently, I should be able to understand [-] to [-] percent.

If there is a fellowship exchange, or a teacher to teach, it should not be a problem to understand [-]% or [-]%. "

Auntie Zhu nodded.

She also read the "Science Special Issue ([-])", and with her current level of knowledge, most of it can be understood.

Because the content of science in the rural examination is all the science knowledge of the Ming Dynasty and the previous dynasties, even if there is content for later generations, it is the kind that scholars in the Ming Dynasty can understand at a glance, and it is not difficult.

Of course, if the knowledge points are turned into examination questions, it will definitely be much more difficult.

"In this way, this special issue will be handed over to "Da Ming Pao" for printing, and it will be published in the next issue. It can be regarded as a Shangyuan Festival gift for scholars who intend to take science courses.

Mr. Mizhi has contributed to the adaptation of this special issue. After you go down, you can submit the list of those who assisted in the adaptation. I will definitely reward you! "

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Fang Yizhi expressed his joy and thanked him immediately.

Zhu Yu's words not only affirmed his work, but also gave him the opportunity to recommend his subordinates, which is relatively rare.

Aimee Zhu added: "Mr. Mizhi can set up a 'Science Special Issue Editorial Office' under the Daming Academy of Natural Sciences, which will be responsible for the subsequent adaptation of the "Science Special Issue".

On the other hand, Mr. Mizhi also needs to put in more thought on the establishment of the Daming Academy of Natural Sciences, and it will be completed as soon as possible. "

Fang Yizhi said: "Since I was entrusted by His Majesty to establish the Academy of Natural Sciences, I dare not forget it for a moment.

The minister believes that the establishment of this academy depends on the people, so in the past period of time, he has been looking for great talents who have studied in the way of natural science.

In my Ming Dynasty, the people who were best at this way in the past were Mr. Wang Zheng of Xi'an Prefecture and Mr. Xu Guangqi of Songjiang Prefecture, who were also known as the 'King of South Xu and North'.

It is a pity that Mr. Wang Zheng died of a hunger strike the year before last because he did not want to surrender to hypocrisy. There are no outstanding disciples to inherit his knowledge.

However, Weichen has sent people to Shaanxi to contact his descendants, hoping to collect the works left by Mr. Wang Zheng.

Wen Dinggong (posthumous title of Xu Guangqi) died of illness more than ten years ago, and among his disciples, Chen Zilong was the most outstanding.

However, Chen Zilong is now an official in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he does not have such aspirations, nor is he very talented, so he only compiled and published "Nongzheng Quanshu" and other works with Wending Gongmen and others a few years ago.

In addition, Li Zhizao, a resident of Liang'an in Hangzhou, also made achievements in mathematics and astronomy, but unfortunately passed away more than ten years ago..."

"Wait a minute." Zhu Yu couldn't help interrupting Fang Yizhi's words, and said a little speechlessly: "Mr. Mizhi said that the three are all deceased. Doesn't my Ming Dynasty have any natural science talents who are still alive?"

Fang Yizhi was embarrassed for a while, and said: "There must be some, but the way of natural science was regarded as heresy before, not a prominent learning, even if someone dabbled in and studied it, it was difficult to become famous, and even deliberately concealed their hobbies.

For example, Xu Guangqi, Li Zhizao, Wang Zheng and other predecessors not only had official positions and talents, but also published relevant works, which is known to outsiders.

For this kind of natural science talents who have become famous, so far, I have only invited senior Li Tianjing. "

Li Tianjing?
It was the first time Aimee Zhu heard of this name, so she asked, "What achievements has he made in the way of natural science?"

"Senior Li Tianjing was a Jinshi during the Wanli period. He presided over the Qintianjian Calendar Bureau in the sixth year of Chongzhen and participated in the compilation of "Chongzhen Calendar".

In addition, he co-translated a Western mathematics work called "Tongwen Suanzhi" with Matteo Ricci, a missionary of Western studies. "

Speaking of this, Fang Yizhi hesitated a little, and said, "If Your Majesty is in urgent need of talents in natural sciences, you may allow Missionary Nataixi to enter the Academy of Natural Sciences."

If Aimee Zhu could not obtain various scientific theories and technological achievements of later generations, she would definitely agree to Fang Yizhi's suggestion.

But now that she does this, what she can get from the missionaries is actually limited. On the contrary, it may allow the missionaries to pass on the scientific theories and technologies she brought to the West in advance.

This is what Auntie Zhu doesn't want to see.

So she said: "Among the Western missionaries, there are many who are proficient in the way of natural science, but this generation respects their beliefs, and they are not my race, nor are they my Ming people. How can I safely let them join the Academy of Natural Sciences?" ?

Unless, they are willing to give up their beliefs and become my citizens of Ming Dynasty. "

Fang Yizhi also had contact with Thai and Western missionaries, and knew that for those people, the Lord is greater than the emperor, and faith is more important than life.

Therefore, when Aimee Zhu said this, he knew that it would be impossible to introduce the Taixi missionaries into the Academy of Natural Sciences.

At this time, Hao Guangming, who had been listening for a long time, said, "You, Daming Academy of Natural Sciences, must not be established in a hurry. You have to take your time. People say, 'It takes ten years to grow a tree, but a hundred years to grow a man', you It's only been over a year."

After hearing this, Auntie Zhu sighed secretly, and told the other party wisely: "Since this is the case, Mr. Shi Mizhi of the Academy of Natural Sciences should not rush to make achievements. Pay more attention to those who are talented in this way, and cultivate talents slowly."

Hearing this, Fang Yizhi heaved a sigh of relief, and replied, "Yes."

　First more.
