Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Six(2/2)

Emperor Jing He shook his head and refused: "If they want to work, they can only work in the palace. What kind of discipline does it have to be a craftsman at the Prime Minister's house?"

Seeing that the emperor refused so resolutely, Liu Mingqi had to give up.

Think about it, too.

People are people around the emperor and serve the nobles of the palace. If you ask them to work at other people's houses, wouldn't that behaved as dry food and belittle the status of the emperor and concubines?

What a pity, we have to train people again.

Fortunately, the group of craftsmen at home had built the toilet and sewage system of the entire Prince Yu Mansion before, and their experience was not as rich as the group of people who had built the entire palace. However, they were not much different from those of the Nangong Xiangye Mansion.

Anyway, with Fang Lei, the chief engineer, it is not difficult to do it.

What Liu Mingqi has to consider now is how much is the right amount to collect Nangong Qiucheng.

Such a big dog family, who has lost tens of thousands of taels of silver to construction and installation costs, is it worthy of the people in the world?

You have eaten so much fat and ointment, so I have to get some for the people!

Note: According to Kubota Kazuo's "Research on Kaifeng in the Song Dynasty", from the eighth year of Xining to the first year of Shaosheng, the Northern Song Dynasty spent 20 years to repair the outer city and moat projects of Bianjing, which cost a lot. The court issued 2,500 quorum certificates for this, which dealt with most of them. This shows that a quorum certificate is very expensive. According to this book, it is quite cheap. Please be aware of it.

Many people think that only monks have certificates of sanctions, but the Museum of the Demon City contains certificates of sanctions issued to "Taoist Zhang Yongxin" during the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty's temple sacrifice to the Qing official official, so the ID card of the Taoist priest is also a certificate of sanctions.

During the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, the total number of monks, nuns and Taoist priests was about 150,000, which was a very small number. According to the "Luoyang Galan Record", there were more than 1,300 temples in Luoyang City alone in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and there were more than 500 temples in Jiankang City.

According to the total population of 150 million, it should be more reasonable to set up about 1 million monks, nuns and Taoists in the Dakang Dynasty.
