Chapter 1501 Subtle

This was another homework. The two of them secretly hid in the car and peeped outside. By observing the store's purchases, the prices on the water labels, the changes in the store's business categories, the bargaining between merchants and customers, and the behavior of Kaifeng citizens.

In daily life, we can also see many political issues reflected in it.

For example, after the Xuzhou Tieqian smelting was cancelled, and the salt survey was completely cancelled, the price of salt in Beijing secretly dropped by two cents, and then secretly rose back up.

For example, when passing by the old Lijia rice store, Su You told Zhao Xu that due to four years of good harvest, the operation of the old Lijia rice store was bleak in the first year, but it got better in the second year, and expanded in the third and fourth years.

, the business was booming and I made a lot of money.

Why did rice merchants suffer huge losses in the first year of the bumper harvest? This is the relationship between the purchase price of inventory and the shipping price after the year.

Many things, based on imagination, are completely opposite to the actual situation. If the imperial court thought that the grain harvest would be great, it would think that the grain merchants would become fat that year, so they would increase the harsh exploitation of the grain merchants and formulate a strategy of increasing taxes on the rice merchants. As a result,

It is inevitable that the rice merchants will be even worse, and many of them will close down, causing the grain circulation to be even more sluggish in the second year.

In this case, we should quickly introduce policies to encourage merchants to help them survive the first year of losses caused by falling grain prices, encourage farmers to save grain, and use benefits to lure everyone into joining the business of storing grain, transporting grain, and selling grain.

.

It seems that the imperial court suffered a loss because a large amount of grain was not collected into the state treasury. It also had to subsidize grain merchants and reduce grain commodity taxes to encourage private trade and stocks.

But in fact, these measures can reduce the large amount of money spent by the court to stabilize grain prices, reduce the pressure to urgently increase the construction of warehouses, and the transportation pressure of national water transportation. More importantly, they can maintain and expand circulation channels, which will provide a good foundation for the coming year.

Lay the foundation.

Many things came from examples in the market, and Su You's analysis opened Zhao Xu's eyes. He no longer looked at the surface of things, but looked at the underlying operating rules and their essence.

This is a subtle education method that requires a teacher with a very broad knowledge. Zhao Xu is also full of interest and research spirit. The progress in this area is much faster than the progress in the Thirteen Classics.

In other words, classmate Xiao Zhao is starting to become a bit biased.

Ji Si, Su You sent a letter that the construction of the Capital University was in full swing and requested to go to Zhongmou to take charge.

This was a big deal, and Gao Taotao approved it immediately.

…

In Zhongmu, on the bank of Liuyan Lake, a school district was built.

The school district relies on a small town called Lijiaji. From last year to now, it has built several streets, a huge market town, and many tall and magnificent buildings by the lake on the edge of the town.

The entire market town was finally separated from the town by an artificially dug river, and four additional stone bridges were built on the river.

The local residents are very envious of the houses on the other side of the river. They are very beautiful houses with large windows and glass.

The happiest thing is that a red brick bell tower with a high spire has been built here. It can be seen throughout the town.

Many people have come one after another these days, with different identities. Some look like scholars, some look like merchants, there are farmers, herdsmen, soldiers, craftsmen, monks, Taoist priests...

There are even several officials in red and green robes!

The largest bridge is called Wenjin Bridge. There is a tall archway in front of the bridge. On the archway, there are green-lacquered characters in regular script - Capital University Hall.

Several large characters were written by the most prestigious civil servant of the Song Dynasty, Bachelor Sima. On both sides of the archway are the couplets of Su Situ, who has become famous all over the world.

Practicing the Tao in a straightforward manner leads to neutrality, and the trend of human emotions is the law of heaven;

If the family governs the country and the world is in order, the people's will is consistent.

On this day, another group of carriages and horses came over. The one who rode first was a purple-robed official, but he was unusually young and looked to be no more than thirty years old.

As early as two months ago, Su You had posted hero posts all over the place, sincerely inviting scholars from all walks of life to come to the Capital University as ex-officio lecturers.

A scholar-bureaucrat's meritorious service is to establish virtue, meritorious service, and reputation.

It is easy to achieve meritorious service only by relying on official career, but it is not necessary to establish virtue and reputation!

In Su You's letter to them, this place will be the place where the literary talents of the Song Dynasty will be from now on. All the big guys, hurry up and grab the territory!

There are many locations, including the School of Liberal Arts, School of History, School of Economics and Philosophy, School of Mathematics, School of Astronomy, School of Geography, School of Physics, School of Chemistry, School of Medicine, School of Agriculture, School of Fine Arts, and School of Music.

The group of people with official positions are still hesitant, but many petty officials and ordinary civilians have no pressure at all. After all, the college belongs to the royal family, and a researcher's salary is higher than that of a state official.

The School of Literature, the School of History, and the School of Economics and Philosophy are difficult to deal with, because these three big bosses are usually high-ranking officials. Su You adopts the guest lecture system of officials in Beijing taking turns.

In addition, there are also scholars and poets with great reputation among the people, such as Tang Yan, He Zhu and Yan Jidao.

The dean of the School of Liberal Arts is Su Shi.

This was really not a special arrangement by Su You, it was really out of necessity to take care of the public voice.

Su Shi had become a member of Zhongshushe, and he was still given the gold and purple, and he was exempted from taking the examination.

According to the story, only those with excellent literary skills can be selected into Zhongshu Sheren, and they must pass the Sheren test.

In the first year of Xining, Su You entered Zhongshusheren. Although it was only a temporary post, just to have "responsibility" when Zhao Xu needed advisers, he went through rigorous examinations and submitted more than 20 submissions.

You only get it after passing through the venue.

This position is very important and belongs to the emperor's close ministers. It is the place where the emperor reserves talents for prime ministers.

Its duty seems to be to write articles based on the opinions of the emperor and Zhongshu. In fact, it is responsible for explaining knowledge and government affairs to the emperor, guiding the emperor and the political affairs hall to reach an agreement, participating in the formulation of national policy, and finally turning the general national policy, that is, the "prefix", into

The gorgeous writing is the "Edict", which is promulgated to the world.

With the rise of Shenzong, Zhongshusheren also had the power to seal the title back.

Therefore, this position has very high requirements for political literacy and literary accomplishment.

When they arrived at Su Shi's place, the Empress Dowager saw that Sima Guang was going to join the Zhongshusheren who were waiting for the exam, and asked: "Does Su Shi also need to take the exam?"

Sima Guang thought of this boy's past record of "three killings and three exonerations", and asked himself that Ouyang Xiu's literary skills were more than one level behind Ouyang Xiu. He looked at Lu Gong's works and said, "Why don't you take the exam?"

Lu Gong thought about the difficulty of correcting the paper and nodded: "I also think that people like Su Shi no longer need to take the exam."

So Su Shi broke the precedent of the Song Dynasty and directly became a member of Zhongshushe without taking the exam.

If it were anyone else, the Taiwan remonstrance that would impeach a dog urinating would have started a long time ago. However, this time, there was no objection at all.

Da Su has passed away in the middle school room? OK, OK, let’s write a poem to congratulate him!

It is really unreasonable, but the reason why an awesome person is called an awesome person is because he is so awesome that there is no natural reason.

There are so many allusions used in ancient Chinese that even Zhongshushe people cannot remember all the allusions. Therefore, Zhongshushe people usually carry allusion dictionaries, rhyme dictionaries and other reference books when they go to work.

Su Shi didn't need to, and just took a box of "Zhuge brushes" when he took office, because he believed that the paper and ink provided by the government were of high quality, but the brushes were not satisfactory, so he needed to bring his own.

But Dasu really didn't show off, but really didn't need it, and his articles would be impressive.

He is still the same upright person and still loves to tease. During the five years of exile, he was actually eaten by dogs.

Relying on his talent, Fang Kuang once said to his friends and disciples: "The appointment of an article requires the alliance of famous people, so that the path will not fall."

Nowadays, peace is flourishing, and scholars have emerged in large numbers, so that the literature of the time can have a master.

In the past, Ouyang Wenzhong often gave someone his permission, so he did not dare not to do so.

The responsibility for the leader of the alliance at any time lies with all the kings, just like Wen Zhong's entrustment."

This means that the leader of the Wenlin Alliance was Ouyang Xiu, and Ouyang Xiu once entrusted him with the alliance leader. He hoped that his friends and disciples would continue to work hard, and in the future they could complete the great cause of passing on the alliance just as he had lived up to Ouyang Xiu's trust.

Even if it is true, it is a bit arrogant.

Qin Guan's lyrics can be said to be the best in the Song Dynasty. Su Shi also commented on his lack of character and once said to him: "Unexpectedly, I learned Liu Qi's lyrics after we left."

Qin Guan replied: "Although someone is uneducated, it is not as good as this."

Su Shi said: "'At this time', isn't it Liu Qiyu?"

Then I made a couplet myself, quoting the famous sayings of Qin Guan and Liu Yong, called "The mountain wipes the faint clouds of Qin's bachelor, and the dew flowers reflect Liu Tuntian".

Wang Qi was Su Shi's wife and a high-ranking official. He once said to Su Shi: "In my life, I am most proud of two sentences about bamboo."

Dasu asked which two sentences it was, and Wang Qi said: "The leaves hang down a thousand swords, and the stems hang ten thousand spears."

Da Su said: "It's good, it's excellent, but after all, it's ten bamboo poles and one leaf."

Wang Yuxi was also a scholar of the Wang family. The Empress Dowager and Zhao Xu succeeded in begging for rain. Xiao Wang's poem on the rain congratulations made by Xiao Wang's children's shoes included "Fighting Ye Yu with heavy hands, blowing the cool breeze to chase people away".

I felt proud of myself at the time.

Dasu looked at it and asked: "Sixteenth Prince, why are you so unruly in your poetry?"

Wang Yuxi was greatly embarrassed: "This was done when I was drunk."

A few days later, Wang Yuxi came to see Da Su again with a favorite song. After reading it, Da Su asked: "Are you... drunk again?"

Dasu has entered his golden years, but the other person is suffering.

Lu Huiqing.

Emily Lu was too arrogant in her thank you speech to the court, causing public outrage.

Even Zhang Dun began to reflect on the mistakes made during the reform period, but Lu Huiqing still persisted. He once discussed with his disciples: "How is Su Zizhan's diction?"

The guest responded to what Lu Huiqing meant: "It looks like Su Qin and Zhang Yi."

Lu Huiqing smiled and said: "Su Qin's literary talent is very good, Zhang Yi can't compare with it, and Su Shi can't compare with it either."

Then he took out his watch and read slowly: "Ma Guang was giving a banquet with his face, and the court was debating Han Qi's sparse memorials."

There is another sentence in the table: "If you examine yourself, you will never know the reason."
