Chapter 248: A Different Song

Whether it is the Political Affairs Hall or the Third Department, or the Academy of Sciences, the Military Equipment Supervision, and even the Inspectorate and the Hanlin Academy, there is an important task now.

The emperor has made it very clear that within two years, he will attack Xia in five ways!

What is the focus here is on the establishment of the firearm battalion. How difficult is it to establish the firearm battalion the emperor wants?

Everyone knows that it is as difficult as climbing to the sky!

For military weapons supervisors, making a musket is nothing, but the concept of one thousand muskets and three thousand muskets is completely different.

It not only requires a large number of people to be as simple as this, but also requires these people to be proficient in the creation of muskets.

Musket Manufacturing was just developed, and even Sima Qi and Chen Gui were not skilled, let alone teach others.

But the emperor now asks for it. The emperor's pressure is like Mount Tai. If he doesn't accept it, he has to accept it. After that, all government offices and supervisory departments will start to do two years of tasks for the people below and put pressure on them.

The budget for the report must be reported in advance, and the preparations that should be made should be made as soon as possible.

Do you think the emperor said he wanted your head casually?

Perhaps in the dynasty of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, the emperor's mission could be sloppy. Even if it was half completed, Emperor Huizong of Song would not say anything. At most, he would blame him a few words. If someone wanted to cause trouble, he would just be exiled.

But today is different, and you can't be perfunctory.

Otherwise, he would tell you every minute that his head could be hung at the city gate for exhibitions at any time.

Some time ago, the "Yezhi" that Sima Qi came here did not take it seriously.

I also said that the forging time, iron volume and furnace temperature are not reasonable.

Putting it aside, the new Sima Qi didn't dare to say anything, so he opened one eye and closed the other.

But now, the attitude of major agencies suddenly changed by 180 degrees, setting off a trend of studying "Yezhi"!

Some people also comment from time to time.

I can see this style in this life, and I will never regret it even if I die!

It’s like a revelation, I look at this work, like opening up the Ren and Du meridians, if I walk in the clouds, I look at the colorful clouds and auspicious auspiciousness, and my atmosphere is endless!

How wonderful! How wonderful! I often hear the works of saints like the great sound of the great way. Now I read your works, and the enlightenment suddenly opens, just like flying in the universe and traveling around the world! What? Don’t you know what I’m talking about? I don’t know what I’m talking about.

...

While everyone was singing praises to Sima Qi, Sima Qi was holding the emperor's "Su's Wrought Iron" study, and nodding from time to time: It's amazing! It's amazing, if this is the case, it will take less time!

"Yezhi" talks more about the furnace temperature, iron ore addition amount, calcination time and other methods.

"Su's Wrought Iron" explains more about the production and operation methods of this blast furnace wrought iron device.

This blast furnace calcination is obviously improved in the current calcination method, and is very exquisitely improved, both in terms of duration and material consumption, which are greatly improved compared to the past.

These two books should be combined.

It is cold and cold in the twelfth lunar month. Although houses are being built everywhere in Tokyo, the end of the year is approaching and many people are starting to prepare New Year's goods.

This year's New Year is stronger than any previous year.

First, the Song Dynasty won the Southwest Battle and restored its hometown in China. Some passionate young people among the people were proud of this and gathered in teahouses every day to discuss political affairs and military affairs.

Second, after the large-scale investment and construction by the imperial court, many refugees who were originally unemployed were driven, which gave these people a good income.

So I said that there were many fewer beggars on the street. The family of three who was begging in the Donghuamen area last year. On the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, the whole family actually put on new clothes and went to a small restaurant outside Donghuamen to have a New Year's dinner.

Especially the child, who was so hungry last year that he was pale and thin. This year, he was wearing tiger shoes, holding a little doll in his hand, smiling, eating fish on the table, and talking about the story of playing with the little girl next door.

Everyone seems to be changing. In the past, people were slow and they didn’t know what to do all day long, and they lived their days day by day.

It’s okay to be richer, but with a wealthy family, you can talk about the current situation or drink and have fun when you are bored.

But if you are poor, you have nothing to do and have no income, you can only go hungry, and you look listless and passive.

However, this negative despair is rare now.

Because many people have discovered that as long as they are willing to work hard, at least they have money to eat and have a balance, the kids at home can buy small toys.

When ordinary people chat in Tokyo, the topic changed from hunger to what delicious food I ate today.

In short, the restaurant outside Donghuamen is no longer exclusive to rich people.

I don’t have money, but now I have some money. I also want to taste the delicious food in the world, so that I can get a trip in vain.

Starting this year, the government has become more generous. In addition to building various buildings and roads, a large amount of money has been sank into the pockets of the people through this method.

Light holders were also built on the roadside.

At night, someone went there to light the oil lamp.

The whole street looks brighter and more cozy.

This international super metropolis becomes graceful and luxurious every night.

The rich young man wearing brocade and grosgrain rode a horse and dressed in elegantly dressed lady walking on a Baoyu carriage and walked on the wide streets, and went to a banquet on a night when the winter snow was falling.

Five-story buildings have been built on the roadside, stacked layer by layer, with flying eaves and pavilions arranged in an orderly manner, and lights are decorated like a heavenly palace in the clouds, revealing its atmosphere and pride on a snowy night.

"Shangguan, it's very cold outside, please close the brocade curtain."

The guard riding on the horse said to Zhao Ding who was looking out through the carriage window.

Zhao Ding is only forty-three years old this year, but has been promoted to the Imperial Supervisor of the Royal Bank of the Song Dynasty. His status is comparable to that of Qin Hui, and he is considered the Imperial Minister of the current emperor.

It was only a month since he came to Tokyo. I remember the last time I came here was five years ago.

In five years, Tokyo City seemed to have changed.

The Song Dynasty seemed to have changed its appearance.

Zhao Ding couldn't help but sigh that the beginning of this prosperous era must have to use the heads of people from a previous era to sacrifice blood.

He refers to Cai Jing, Tong Guan and others, as well as officials who were killed by the emperor.

Of course, it is also inseparable from those soldiers who sacrifice their lives on the frontier.

When Zhao Ding's carriage passed by a street, his eyes were attracted again.

In addition to spending a lot of money on road maintenance, river channel dredging, and public bathhouses in Tokyo.

Another very important point is that it benefits the country and the people.

Establishment of a library.

Funded by the imperial court, many books were printed, including works by sages from various dynasties from the pre-Qin to the Song Dynasty.

Including some books on agriculture, engineering, and mathematics, there are everything.

Moreover, in these libraries, there are specialists who give lecturers to explain free of charge to those who come to watch.

As for agriculture, many people are willing to come here.

After hearing about this, the emperor immediately asked someone to open another agricultural crash hall.

The so-called Agriculture Quick-Entertainment Museum, like some technical schools in later generations, teaches some simple agricultural knowledge, simplifies the agriculture summarized by Chen Qing and teaches it.

Zhao Ding ordered people to stop the car and lean against the roadside.

He couldn't help getting out of the carriage and walked towards a library.
