Shandong Dengzhou, magistrate's residence

No matter what the purpose of Jimo Lan family is, Shen Ruiben also wanted to promote culture and education in Dengzhou. Lan is willing to open academy, and Shen Rui is welcome.

What's even better is that Lan is quite similar to Lantian, and is also a person who is proficient in all kinds of knowledge, such as the astronomical calendar, the ox and horse music, and even the Qimen Dunjia. He is not pedantic and is very acknowledged by Luban School in Dengzhou during his words and conversations. .

Since Shen Rui has built a "technical school", he naturally hopes to promote more science and technology.

To put it in small things, it is the current need to get rich, and to put it in large things, it is to start the technological revolution of the Ming Dynasty.

Now the people in Luban School in Dengzhou can only be considered technical workers. Even if they are successful, they are only skilled, and they are still far from the "engineer" that Shen Rui wants.

If you want to get engineers, on the one hand, you should select those with good knowledge, learning awareness and innovation awareness from technical workers and further cultivate them.

On the other hand, we are looking for favorite technologies from those scholars, scholars, and even Jinshi who are already knowledgeable, and are willing to study so-called miscellaneous studies, providing them with a scientific research atmosphere and space, and further directional guidance.

Whether it is training or guiding, this blue is a good leader.

There are many scientists in all dynasties. Not to mention Zhang Heng, Zu Chongzhi, Shen Kuo, Song Yingxing, etc., just like Shen Rui, Li, Li Yanqing and his son have made great achievements in water conservancy engineering and equipment manufacturing.

With more such technical application talents, there is a stage for them to show their strengths, so why worry about the future of the Ming Dynasty!

This time, several water canals and water truck projects were all under the guidance of Li. A head of the Ministry of Industry and several ambassadors and deputy envoys were also amazing technical talents, and they helped Shen Rui and Deng. The people in the state are busy.

Li Yanqing also showed his skills in the Military Equipment Department and improved a lot of military equipment, especially the traditional firearms such as the bowl gun used for water warfare and "do nothing to do".

Shen Rui is not clear about the manufacturing of firearms and cannot provide more effective help.

I can only write down the content I can remember, and I can't remember any ancient book about Qimen Dunjia refining weapons and alchemy, so I let Li Yanqing study it on his own.

Then someone sent a secret letter to Dai Dabin, who was far away in Fujian, so that he could pay more attention to Westerners and get some Western muskets.

After Zhang Hui tried the weapons made by Li Yanqing in a small area, he quietly transported them to Dengzhou. Now he has equipped two thousand-house soldiers under Pan Jiayu, and further practical drills and inspections are underway.

Shen Rui also instructed Pan Jiayu to find someone to record the results of each exercise in detail and provide feedback to Li Yanqing in time so that he could make further adjustments based on the actual effect.

Because the Dezhou Wei was in the Hu Jie bribery case, Pan Jiayu had already brought back all his old subordinates.

Now the commander Zhao Sheng showed his goodwill to Shen Rui again, and he sent many people to Pan Jiayu's hands. His life became more and more smooth and his practice became more and more attentive.

Especially with the help of the Nanjing Navy elite and the veterans like Qi Xuan were in charge, the Pan family was not vague in training troops. Now the Dengzhou Navy is very good.

Shen Rui bluntly told Lan that he would tell Lan all his ideas about talent training. Although Lan was old-fashioned and said nonsense like "Mr. Shen is young and promising", his eyes were extremely bright.

Shen Rui could see that Lan was tempted and couldn't help but be very satisfied, so he opened the door to convenience and offered many preferential treatments to Lan's academy, which was still unshakable.

He can choose the location of the school, and the houses are designed according to him. In addition to helping build houses, the government office can also provide certain funds for scientific research and student scholarships, etc.

After Lan Xie said that he would choose a location to build a school on the mountainous areas in the south of the city, but not in the city. The city is becoming more and more prosperous, and he is afraid that the students will not be interested in studying.

Shen Rui also agreed with a smile.

Although Lan's words inevitably brought it to the Fuxue County School in the city, most of the famous academies were built on the mountain, so you should have a beautiful and quiet environment for studying.

He also happened to plan a university town in Nanshan.

After the negotiations were made, Lan said goodbye and left, and was sent to the Shenfu Hospital by Master Da Yu to stay in.

Mr. Chen said to Shen Rui: "Look at Mr. Lan is a scholar, what does the boss think?"

Shen Rui smiled and said, "I have met Lord Lan Zhang and Brother Lan Tian, ​​but this Mr. Lan is much more active than the father and son. I am quite looking forward to his academy."

"Mr. Lan and his son are too straightforward. Although they are upright and have a strong character, they are too tough and easy to break..." Master Chen sighed.

He turned and smiled, "Mr. Lan is quite famous in Shandong. He opened a college and decided that many students would come to study, so I, Dengzhou, are also famous."

Looking at the Penglai County map drawn by Shen Rui on the wall of the study, Mr. Chen smiled and said, "The north side is near the harbor, and there are post roads on both sides of the east and west. Now, the academy is added to the south, and the four corners are all in full bloom, and prosperity is just around the corner. ”

Shen Rui laughed and said, "Ministry of academic research is like what Mr. He said, and the last two sentences are more like what Mr. Jiang said, "

The families who are willing to study for thousands of miles will not be poor families. Students spend money on food and drink, teachers, and teachers' families... The matter of a university city revitalizing a regional economy was long before Shen Rui's development plan.

Mr. Chen laughed and said, "Don't think that the boss is old and pedantic. Now, with the boss, he has to learn some 'economic' things to do."

After a few jokes, I have also mentioned that Dengzhou has the largest source of economic resources, the maritime trade.

Shen Rui talked about the results of the discussion with the garrison station and said, "I'll go to Wendeng to see it. There is also a good harbor there, and there is a lot of connection with the sea in the south. I want to open the sea, but I can't. It’s not necessary to lock it, and you can’t prevent it.”

Master Chen pondered for a moment and said, "The boss is very worried. But if he goes here, he will face the Wang family's affairs."

The Wang family is the mother's family of Concubine Jing of Xian Temple in the palace. Although this concubine is desolate and is now silent in the harem, she has raised Princess Deqing. Now the eldest princess is very concerned about her and, along with her, she also cares about the Wang family. .

When Shen Rui came to Dengzhou, Princess Deqing's mansion said hello.

At first, Shen Rui did not take such a Wang family to heart.

When the land was cleared in various counties, the Wang family still had the style of a foreign relative's family, and the government was not allowed to measure the land.

His family's land is available in Wendeng County and Ninghaizhou.

Neither of the parents nor the officials in these two places had any background and refused to offend such a family, so they shirked their responsibilities and procrastinated.

In fact, the Wang family is just showing off their might in Wendeng County, a remote mountainous area. Not to mention being placed in Beijing, even if it is placed in the entire Shandong, the Wang family is not as good as the one.

Shen Rui was dealing with island and refugee affairs at that time, so he ignored it. He gave the letter to Princess Deqing's mansion with all his courtesy, then threw away his hand and waited to go back to clean up.

Princess Deqing is far more powerful than Princess Chun'an, who is not as powerful as Princess Chun'an. Moreover, the Deqing and his wife are well-read and reasonable. In the reply, they are polite and said that they will persuade Princess Jing to be the mother's family.

He also sent a manager to Wendeng to talk to the Wang family.

Unfortunately, the Wang family is a hob meat, so this matter has been delayed and it has not been resolved until the harvest season.

And there are many stories in the royal family in the past two months.

First, the little emperor used several cases of harming the heavens and harming the law, including the Qing Palace and the Jingjiang Palace, to attack the vassals.

Later, when Zhang showed no mercy when he "occupied the land of the people" in Prince Chad's mansion.

He quickly and ruthlessly pulled out the so-called people who offered the fields, and found out the occupied acres clearly and clearly. The evidence of the crime was also clean and beautiful, without any ambiguity.

From the magistrate, the prefect, the magistrate, the magistrate, the governor, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magist

He was even more unwilling to cover up the royal palace.

What did Prince De say there was an old age and blinded by the villain?

Zhang sneered and said that he didn't know about it before, but now he knows it. Please return the land mu. The prince is kind and should give the common people some compensation and comfort.

It is clear that the royal mansion wants to spit out the flesh from his mouth.

Prince De's mansion was considered invincible, so he followed a note on the left and the right to the big house, yelling about poverty, and even refused to pay the taxes and silver that should be paid per mu this year.

The eldest princess Chun'an was angry and hated, and sent a few waves of confidants to scold him, but it was useless.

The little emperor was even more furious and frightened the old ministers so much that they hurriedly pressed them, for fear that he would impulsively take down King De's land, causing turmoil among the vassals.

At this time, Yang Tinghe from the Beijing area also sent a letter to Shen Rui, asking him to take action steadily and never make a rash move.

After all, Shen Rui was stabbed in this matter with King De. If the first one of them was not dealt with properly, he would cause trouble. The emperor would not be "wrong". The blame would be all the following. At that time, Shen Rui was pushed to take the blame.

.

Therefore, according to the affairs of the Wang family, the masters meant not to worry about it first. After the matter of King De was settled, we would deal with it.

But the premise of ignoring it is that Shen Ruide stays in the capital city. It can be said that Ninghai Prefecture and Wendeng County deliberately conceal it, and the prefect did not know it, so it did not deal with it.

If Shen Rui goes down to Wendeng County and faces this matter directly, he will not be able to ignore it.

Shen Rui said, "I have some news from Shunzi. The Wang family is probably connected with the sea."

Wendeng is also a place where smuggling is rampant. Although many large households do not place ships in the sea, they collect things from the sea and sell stolen goods on the ground.

"Even now is not the time to deal with it, you must always understand it."

Shen Rui said again, "I originally wanted to go to the next few prefectures and counties as soon as I took office, and I would like to have a simple understanding of the local situation, so that the governance will be more targeted in the future."

"It's just that everything is plagued by. I only started talking to Zhaoyuan, Huangxian came and went to Qixia to take a look. I haven't walked around yet.

"If you go east this time, look at Fushan, Ninghaizhou, Wendeng, turn west and then go to Laiyang, you will be considered as leaving. You can go back to Penglai before the Cold."

Mr. Chen pondered and said, "This is the right time. This year's summer tax and autumn tax are exempted. You can save yourself disaster relief and the autumn harvest can be more calm."

He also said, "Mr. Shen moved to Zuo Zhengzheng. I think those who are thinking about trouble every day can be more at peace."

Shen Rui nodded. It would be better if Shenli could stay in Shandong, but today Shandong is still pure. It would be even better if it were not for those vassal kings.

Because he said, "The emperor values ​​Shandong so much, I can only do my best to repay the emperor's kindness."

Mr. Chen nodded and no longer raised objections to Shen Rui's travel when the emperor transferred Chen Jin to the Shandong Qing Lishu Department of the Ministry of Revenue.

"I didn't expect Xiao Shen to go to the Ministry of Revenue." Master Chen sighed and shook his head and smiled, "I didn't expect the eldest son to go to the Siyi Pavilion."

He was originally Yang Ting and his aides, and he called Yang Shen accustomed to being the eldest son.

Shen Rui also sighed: "I didn't expect my uncle to go to the Siyi Pavilion. However, my uncle is also very good at studying."

Not only the two of them, but no one in the civil and military affairs of the court expected Yang Shen to go to the Siyi Pavilion.

Although the Siyi Pavilion was hosted by Li Dongyang and Yang Shen was Li Dongyang's disciple, which can be called "disciples obey their hard work", Yang Shen is Yang Tinghe's eldest son and the top scorer who was given real materials, so he should be trained in a key way. , entrusted with important tasks.

The current Siyi Pavilion is not set up for business with the West. Shen Rui naturally would not think that the little emperor brought Yang Shen in for his own good and for the sake of opening the sea.

Since Li Dongyang asked Shaanxi Yunnan Town Inspection and other officials to visit people who knew Tatars, Xifan, Gaochang, Xitian, Baiyi's language and Chinese characters, he was originally interested in Mongolia.

In recent years, the border between Shanxi and Shaanxi has not been peaceful.
