At the end of Qin, I became a son of the plane

Chapter 217: The continuation of the unique learning and the development direction of hundreds of schools of thought

While hundreds of families were robbing people, a group of people were watching the scene.

A Confucian scholar lamented: "I saw such a prosperous scene in Jixia Academy back then. It's a pity that after the Academy was destroyed by the Qin people, it is now overgrown with weeds and only a ruin remains."

This man's name was Fu Sheng. He was a descendant of Shi Zijian, a disciple of Confucius. Fu Sheng was eager to learn and was especially good at "Shang Shu". After the unification of Qin Shihuang, he extensively recruited talents from all over the world and specially recruited 70 doctors. Fu Sheng was one of them and served as Qin Shihuang's political advisor. According to this script, he probably works hard, works hard, and retires peacefully.

However, plans are not as fast as change. A few years later, Qin Shihuang discovered that many scholars were dissatisfied with the current policy of governing the country and always slandered him behind his back. In anger, he ordered "burning books and entrapping Confucians", burning many books that were not in line with Qin Dynasty's policies, and killing many scholars. Fortunately, Fu Sheng had the foresight to resign and return to his hometown long ago.

Although Fu Sheng returned home with his favorite "Shang Shu", he was forced by Qin Shihuang's edict and did not dare to read it in public. He could only secretly hide "Shang Shu" in the wall of his home and rely on his seeds. live a peaceful life.

A few years later, Xu Fan revolted, causing great chaos in the country. Qi Tiandan also revolted. The Qin army and the anti-Qin rebels fought in Qi for three years.

The cruel war caused war to break out across the land. Fu Sheng was forced to leave his hometown and seek refuge everywhere. By chance, Fu Sheng heard that his senior brother Kong Yu had become one of the Nine Qings in Han Dynasty, so he came to Chen County to seek refuge with Kong Yu.

Kong Yu immediately said with relief: "Although Jixia Academy was destroyed, we are still alive. The knowledge and spirit of Jixia Academy are still spreading. Look at Chen County now. There are hundreds of academies of all kinds, within ten steps. Seeing a scholar, his cultural background is far more prosperous than that of Jixia Academy back then."

Fu Sheng nodded when he heard this. The number of scholars in Chen County was indeed a bit scary. Even the clerks in the market couldn't let go of the scrolls. In Chen County, he could indeed feel the free atmosphere of Jixia Academy. All the conferences were gathered here. The king of Han also valued people from hundreds of families. The prosperity of Han culture was not seen in other places.

To be honest, Fu Sheng rarely admires people, but he admires his senior brother very much. He dared to join the rebel army when he was nearly sixty years old. Confucian scholars rebelled. His senior brother set a precedent, and his senior brother practiced it. To retaliate directly, even if this enemy is the First Emperor, and he is extremely lucky, if he chooses a hero at random, he actually chooses the common leader of the world.

Fu Sheng said: "No wonder Senior Brother is so indifferent and allows Junior Brother to do his part for this great cause of Confucianism."

Since the Qin Dynasty unified the world, the learning of the Bai Jia has been severely hit. The situation in Chen County at this time cannot be said to have completely revived the Bai Jia, but it can be regarded as planting the seeds of revival and seeing the hope of more prosperity. .

October 37, the th year of the First Emperor's reign.

Fu Sheng looked at his daring senior brother and said, "It seems that senior brother has already laid the foundation for my Confucianism in Han Dynasty?"

"Senior brother also thought that this thing couldn't be done before, but as long as we put in some effort, it can be done slowly. Just like what the King of Han said, no matter how difficult it is, as long as we keep doing it, it will be done one day."

Kong Yu said with a smile: "This is all the credit of the King of Han. I thought it was impossible at first, but the King of Han designed the school field system, and it took a little bit of hard work to get to where we are today. Now the entire Chen County is under 10 years old." All children have attended primary school, and there are three primary schools with more than students. Other counties and counties in the Han Dynasty are also popularizing primary schools in large numbers. Coupled with the encouragement of the imperial examination system, even street vendors can't let go of their papers."

Kong Yu said with a proud smile: "The King of Han attaches great importance to education. In the past three years, there have been more than a thousand primary schools in Han Dynasty, and more than 10 children have been born. Most of the teachers who teach these children are our Confucian scholars. We only wait until these children mature. All the schools in the world combined will not be inferior to my Confucianism."

Kong Yu said: "The two nephews are newly arrived and have little reputation, so they first went to the No. 1 Primary School to become masters. Junior brother, you are also a great scholar in the world. When the King of Han returns, senior brother will introduce you to the King of Han."

After hearing this, Fu Sheng excitedly saluted Kong Yu and said: "Since the violent Qin Dynasty burned books and killed scholars, the world's cultural heritage has withered. Senior brother, you have inherited the knowledge of the sages of hundreds of schools. For this reason, senior brother should be regarded as the successor of hundreds of schools of thought." Grandmaster.”

Then Fu Sheng looked at his two students, Ouyang Sheng and Zhang Sheng, and said, "You two are doing things with my uncle."

Kong Yu believed that his contribution could surpass that of his ancestor Confucius. His ancestor Confucius only taught three thousand disciples, but he made everyone in the world read, and he succeeded in inheriting the teachings of the sages.

Ouyang Sheng and Zhang Sheng nodded: "No!"

Kong Yu smiled and said: "Why raise them? They can support themselves? Master's problem is even simpler. Masters in counties and counties have a monthly salary of 5 dan, and masters in villages. The king of Han provides each master with 100 acres of land as their salary. There are 500 acres of school land in each township. With these school fields, children in a village can complete their elementary school education. Children who do well in school will be recruited as disciples by hundreds of masters in the Han Dynasty. This is why juniors can see in Chen County Hundreds of schools.”

Then Kong Kun said proudly: "An unprecedented cultural prosperity will be realized in our hands."

At this time, Meng Tian's Northern Xinjiang army was annihilated by the coalition forces. It has been known to the people of the world. All the knowledgeable people in the world understand that the end of the Qin Dynasty is coming, and the King of Han will become the new common master of the world.

The entire Qi State was able to support only one Jixia Academy and thousands of students. Qi State may not be the most powerful country in the world, but it is recognized as the richest country in the world.

Fu Sheng said in disbelief: "How can the king of Han afford to support 10 scholars? And where will the money of Han come from to support the master?"

Kong Yu actually felt that there was no need to fight over these. The foundation of Confucianism had long been established in the Han Dynasty. When the time was right, Confucianism could surpass hundreds of schools of thought.

Kong Kun also smiled helplessly and said: "My disciple is good at everything, but he really wants to spread Confucianism. When he sees other schools taking action, he always feels that Confucianism will suffer if it doesn't move."

"Senior brother, you, a big disciple, are still so active!" Fu Sheng said with a smile when he saw Shusun Tong surrounded by a group of scholars.

On the outskirts of Chen County, there is a sugarcane manor.

Tian Yan came here with a group of scholars and said proudly: "This is the most important manor of the Han Dynasty. Not only do you have sugar cane to squeeze white sugar, but you also have rice with an yield of 5-6 shi per mu. Why do our farmers get the attention of the King of Han?" It’s because the wealth created by one of our estates is worth the tax revenue of several counties, and the rice seeds we can research can double the food production.”

The scholar behind Tian Yan was amazed. This peasant had gained the attention of the King of Han, and he indeed had real abilities.

In just one day, they found out clearly about the farmers' situation. The King of Han loved farming and respected the farmer's master Xu Feng very much. He often discussed farming with Xu Feng and treated him with courtesy.

Pay attention to the senior brothers of the peasant family, the merchants and peasants. In less than two years after the peasants joined the Han Dynasty, the merchants and peasants became the governor of the Han Dynasty capital, with a status comparable to that of Jiuqing. More than a dozen of the merchants and peasants below became the county magistrates of the Han Dynasty. , hundreds of them became Cao officials at all levels.

The peasant family may seem inconspicuous, but it is an influential sect in the Han Dynasty. After learning this information, these scholars no longer feel aggrieved about joining the peasant family.

Not long after, Tian Yan led them to a square, where 1500 scholars lined up.

The merchant farmer said to these scholars: "Since you have joined my farm family, you must do your work honestly. You are now the outer disciples of our farm family. After one year, you can become the official disciples of my farm family after you learn how to do farm work."

Then Shang Nong looked at his junior brothers and said: "Juniors, each of you will bring 10 people to teach them farming skills. They will be assessed after one year. Those who succeed in the assessment can stay."

150 farm disciples saluted and said: "No!"

Tian Yan picked up a list and called out: "Ding Yue, Yuan Wei, Lou Jing~~~~, you guys are following senior brother Wu Yue."

Wu Yue came to the ten people with a smile and said: "It has been delayed for a lot of time now. Come with me."

"promise!"

Wu Yue led 10 people from Lou Jing to a piece of land, threw them two books and said: "These two books, one is the "Book of Wealth", written by the King of Han Dynasty and revised by the teacher, which records the techniques of raising six livestock and some techniques of increasing agricultural production. , if you learn this classic well, you will be rich enough to pass it down to your family in a small place.

There is also the "Agricultural Classic", which was compiled by all the sages of my farm family. This is the most fundamental classic of my farm family. You take turns copying it and return the book to me after one month. ""promise! " Lou Jing and the other ten people said excitedly.

I didn't expect to see the classics written by the King of Han. From this, we can see that the King of Han valued farmers is not a rumor, they have come to the right place.

Under the leadership of Wu Yue, some of them came to a pig shed.

Then Wu Yue took them to inspect a circle of pig sheds and said: "There are 50 pigs here. What you do every day is to clean the pig sheds and transport the feces inside to the earthworm field."

The smell of the pig shed was unbearable for some of the ten people. In this era, only those who could study were small landowners or above. Although there were some poor people who raised pigs and studied, it was a small chance, and most of them were from poor families. The ten of them This was the first time I felt such an unpleasant smell.

Wu Yue led them to a stone barrier pond and said, "This is the earthworm field."

Then Wu Yue put his hand into the pool and saw densely packed earthworms exposed. Seeing people like Lou Jing feel sick to their stomachs, many people took several steps back.

Wu Yue smiled and said: "Don't look at this thing because it is small, but it is full of treasures. These earthworms can be used to raise chickens, ducks, geese and other poultry. They can make the poultry grow faster and lay more eggs. Now my farmer has begun to study the use of earthworms." As a raw material for feed, it may be popularized all over the world in the future, so that people all over the world can eat cheap poultry.

Manure is the best fertilizer in the world. The eldest brother once concentrated all the vermicompost on the farm and used it on one acre of land. The yield per mu that year was more than 10 shi, a figure that shocked everyone. It's a pity that the teacher said that such a high yield has no popularization value. The focus of our farmers' research is still on farmyard manure. Vermicompost is only used in seed fields. After all, the quantity is too small. "

Then Wu Yue led ten people from Lou Jing to a vegetable tunnel and said: "The cabbages here are used as feed for pigs. You usually pick these cabbages and chop them into pieces to feed the pigs."

Then he pointed to a pile of soil and said: "The earthworm field cannot consume too much pig manure, so the manure must be piled up, mixed with lime and rotten vegetable leaves, and after fifteen days of fermentation, the smell will no longer exist." After that, there is the best farmyard fertilizer. According to the statistics of my farmer, one pound of farmyard fertilizer can increase the yield of 5 pounds of grain. The types of farmyard fertilizer are also different. Now our "Agricultural Economics" summarizes 4 types of farmyard fertilizer. Each type of farmyard fertilizer has different raw material ratios, fermentation times, and different effects on crops. Just mastering the production of these farmyard fertilizers is enough for you to study for several months. You need to study these in depth. "

When Lou Jing and the others heard that the land was filled with pig manure and there were four different types of farmyard manure, they all instinctively covered their mouths. Do they have to deal with these pig manure in the future?
Ding Yue whispered: "I regret it a little. This is completely different from the farmhouse I imagined."

Others also felt a little remorseful in their hearts. They imagined that the farmers in their minds were heirs to farming and reading. They had books in one hand and a hoe in the other. The morning stars sorted out the wasteland and returned home with the moon loads. Then the King of Han who was waiting at the farmhouse appreciated it and soared to the sky. .

Lou Jing said firmly: "We have come to this point, how can we back down? Senior brothers, I have to leave, but I have to stay."

After Lou Jing said this, the other scholars did not say anything about leaving. If Lou Jing could endure such a life, they could endure it. These days, if the small landlord class wants to become a bureaucratic aristocratic class, it cannot be said that there are very few, it is almost non-existent. They don't dare to join the army and get a bachelor's degree. Farming is a road to the sky for them.

Then Wu Yue led them to a tool room and changed into work clothes. Then under Wu Yue's command, the ten people started the day's work by cleaning the pig pen.

Mojia, steel factory
"If you study in our Mohist school, even if you can't become a Han official, you can still learn a craft. You won't make a fortune, but you can live a good life." Chen Lei was also visiting the steel plant with a group of scholars.

The blast furnace of several feet was amazing, and the pouring of tens of thousands of kilograms of molten iron at one time shocked everyone. It was the first time they saw steel being made in this way. You must know that the price of iron in this era is not cheap. The amount of molten iron starts at hundreds of thousands, and there is a flowing river of money in front of them that these scholars cannot master.

The straight track in the steel plant also shocked them. It was the first time they saw someone making tracks out of precious iron.

When they saw the giant transport truck weighing tens of thousands of pounds, they felt that without this steel track, nothing could bear such a heavy transport truck.

Railway tracks are a new technology tree opened by the Mo family. This has nothing to do with Xu Fan. The main reason is that the steel plant has this demand. The Chenjun blast furnace is getting taller and taller, and its capacity is getting larger and larger. Each time it is made, tens of thousands of kilograms of iron are added. of iron ore and hundreds of thousands of kilograms of coke, it is difficult for ordinary transport vehicles to meet the internal needs of the steel plant, and often crush the ground or vehicles.

At this time, Qin Bo thought of the straight road built in Daqin before. After using the rail car, the efficiency of transporting raw materials in the iron smelting plant has increased several times.

But they encountered a new problem. The wooden rails in the steel factory were often easily burned due to the bright fire, while the wooden rails outside the factory were easily soaked and rotted by the rain due to the heavy rainfall in Chen County. In addition, the wooden rails were damaged every day. It is easy to be crushed under the pressure of several kilograms of transport trucks, and each rollover will cause casualties in the steel plant.

So Qin Bo came up with the idea of ​​paving the road with solid rails, and the effect was extremely obvious. There has been no derailment accident for more than a year.

Of course, because the price of the rails was too high, they could only be used inside the steel factory, which meant that a few miles of such rails were laid. Even so, the Mohists were criticized several times by Zhou Zhang, who thought that the Mohists were too extravagant. However, after the King of Han knew about this , strongly supported the Mohist family. Today the Mohist family has to build railroad tracks, but tomorrow they may be able to build a steam engine.

At this time, the scholars who joined the Mohist family saw these marvelous buildings and felt that they had come to the right place. They were worthy of the legendary Mohist family who were proficient in creation. With such powerful abilities, it was no wonder that they were valued by the King of Han.

Then Chen Lei took the scholars to see the machinery factory and arsenal. The towering waterwheels, roaring hammers, and numerous farm tools and weapons on the assembly lines made these scholars see the power of the Mohist family.

Then the master will lead them to practice in various positions.

A school for novelists.

Zhong Jun, the headmaster, was so excited that his eyes filled with tears when he saw 30 students. This number was not as much as that of a farm family or one-tenth of the Moh family, but it was an unprecedented expansion for a novelist.

Zhong Jun excitedly said to these new disciples: "Don't think we novelists are inconspicuous, but a good story of ours can be worth 10 troops. The King of Han has been conquering all the attacks in the south and the north in recent years. He is invincible in all battles. A big reason for this is our relationship as novelists. Have you all read "Chu Zhaonu" and "Alive"?"

"I have seen it." Everyone replied in unison. In fact, these scholars wanted to find a new path. With so many people joining the Mohist Farmers, they were worried that the competition would be too fierce. Joining a small sect like a novelist would reduce the pressure a lot.

"This is the strength of us novelists. The pens in our hands are worth the weight of an army of 10. Come on, come on, you will write a few short stories with your senior brother first. If the stories are well written, you will not only be favored by the King of Han, but also I can also support my family. I wrote the opera "Brothers and Sisters Come to Farm" for my senior brother, which was very popular. I received more than one gold in screenwriting fees every month. The King of Han values ​​our novelists, so you are in the right place."

These scholars were a little excited. They didn't expect that joining the novelist would not only lead to a promotion but also make a fortune. They really came to the right place.

Celebrity school.

Gongsun Shuo looked at the dozen students in front of him and said: "My famous family is completely different from other sects. If you join my famous family, even if you become a Han official, starting from this month, you will have the salary of the Han Dynasty, and you will not even need to take the imperial examination." Yes, my only request is that you can endure loneliness, Qian Yu, you take these junior brothers to receive official uniforms, and then get familiar with future government affairs."

These scholars were excited. They originally chose the unknown famous people because their senior brother said that as long as they joined the famous people, they could become Han officials. Now that they have actually become Han officials, they are still very excited in their hearts. They thought there would be an assessment. But I didn't expect it to be so easy.

"No!" Qian Yu led these people to an empty courtyard.

"Senior brother, what do our Ming family do?" a scholar asked curiously.

"Set standards for everything in the world!" Qian Yu said expressionlessly.

Such bold words caused everyone to exclaim. This family's knowledge was too great.

Qian Yu sneered in his heart. When you only record weather changes, rainfall, wind speed, and even sun angle changes every day, you know that this salary is not so delicious. If you really join, you can become a Han official, and famous people can't. No name.

That's right, Xu Fan regarded famous people as meteorological bureaus. Now every county in Han Dynasty has such a meteorological bureau to record climate.
