Chapter eight hundred and sixty first: worthy of being a saint
Reclamation of land...
Li Dongyang and Xie Qian looked at each other, and were a little confused.
Liu Jian said laughing and crying: "He brought his disciples and households to grow grain everywhere and opened up hundreds of thousands of hectares of fertile land. In Jiaozhi, especially in the Chameng area, the grain can be cooked twice a year, and the grain can be obtained for millions of dans. The grain there is already piled up like mountains."
“…”
Li Dongyang couldn't help but smile bitterly: "In this way, will the food problems of the soldiers and civilians migrating to Jiaozhi alleviate?"
"It's not just their problem that can be alleviated." Liu Jian said: "The Yunnan land collapsed, and the imperial court could act cheaply and quickly transfer the Jiaozhi grain to Yunnan. In this way, the southwestern provinces rely on Jiaozhi, a western fish and rice town, to be self-sufficient. If so, it would be great. Not only that, it also said that the rubber trees introduced from the West Mountain have begun to survive in large quantities. Wang Shouren grew grain, brewed wine, and made rubber in Jiaozhi on a large scale. In addition, he also planted a large number of sugarcane forests and squeezed sugar. This memorial by Wang Shouren is called "Shuo Agricultural Encouragement", etc. I will take a look first."
Book of encouragement to farming...
This is a familiar book on farming.
The imperial court will also issue books to persuade farmers every now and then, but a few days ago, Xinxue ridiculed and ridiculed the books to encourage farmers for a long time, thinking that they were all official articles.
But now, the backbone of this new learning has actually introduced a book of encouragement for agriculture.
Liu Jian lowered his head and looked at the tens of thousands of memorials word by word. He didn't dare to miss it in almost a word. It was actually a way to promote agriculture. He first understood the actual situation in various places, and then how to organize manpower to cultivate, how to train a group of laborers who are proficient in farming and at the same time, how to determine which land is suitable for planting.
In addition, we must have methods to deal with natural disasters and insect pests in advance.
Even if it is how to organize manpower, it is sought after before the changes in the sky, and the appropriate improvement, irrigation and seed selection of certain agricultural tools are extremely detailed here.
What should I pay attention to when planting rubber, what should I pay attention to when planting rice... I even remembered it.
Liu Jian frowned and couldn't help but say, "Is this how the grain is planted?"
"What?"
Liu Jian delivered the memorial to Li Dongyang.
Li Dongyang has grown any grain? Although he is a gentry family, he knows what the rice fields look like after reading all his life, and what the rice fields look like. The rest... can only be taken for granted.
He looked carefully... but frowned, but was speechless.
He doesn't understand.
Xie Qian also took a look: "That's the case."
"This guy... is a genius." Liu Jian: "In the past, I always thought that new school was suspected of being sensational, but look at Wang Shouren. How many people in the world can do this? Do you think he is just smart. Which one of us who entered the court as an official in the Ming Dynasty is not a Jinshi, and who is not extremely smart?"
Liu Jian sighed: "But since Emperor Taizu Gao, how many people can say this, they are all scholars and officials. Why... the gap between people is so big. Wang Shouren... is a talent... He is in Jiaozhi, which makes Jiaozhi from a war-torn and wilderness land to a place of etiquette and wealthy..."
Liu Jian frowned: "Go and see the car immediately, Your Majesty should know some good news."
…………
Emperor Hongzhi was also surprised when he looked at the memorial in his hand. He couldn't help but say, "Come here, take all the letters of advice from the court that have advised farmers in the past."
Xiao Jing did not dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly received a stack of letters to the people.
Emperor Hongzhi bowed his body and compared these propaganda to persuade farmers with Wang Shouren's memorials.
This is not better. In comparison, Emperor Hongzhi's face turned slightly red.
"Is Wang Shouren the son of Wang Hua?"
"Your Majesty." Liu Jian said: "It is also a disciple of Fang Jifan."
"I know a little bit about this person from Wang Qing's family. He is Qingliu. Well... Generally speaking, if he was asked to write a letter of worship, there would be no difference from other Hanlin people. It seems that Wang Shouren can do this, which is not unrelated to his mentor Fang Jifan."
Emperor Hongzhi said while thinking.
Wang Hua couldn't teach such a son.
Everyone nodded: "Yes, I agree with it."
Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "It can be seen that Fang Jifan's teaching is extraordinary. I have this son and I will be worry-free."
As he said that, Emperor Hongzhi was happy: "In the future, the food in Jiaozhi can be supplied to the southwest provinces, where there is a bumper harvest and high grain production. It is a good thing that the court should migrate more people. As for Wang Shouren, he has countless disciples in Jiaozhi, right?"
"Yes, it is said that there are three thousand disciples and countless disciples."
Emperor Hongzhi sighed with emotion: "There are these people that can be enough to stabilize Jiaozhi."
Emperor Hongzhi stood up: "Issue: Wang Shouren has made great contributions in educating and reclamation, and transferred back to the capital..." Emperor Hongzhi paused: "I ordered him to return to the capital temporarily, and he has another important task. I have never seen him well before. Although I have met several times, I have never had a long talk. I should meet such a person carefully."
Liu Jian and others were stunned.
They suddenly realized that a person's fate had changed.
You know, Wang Shouren was transferred to Jiaozhi as the head of the school official. Even if his promotion was rapid, at most, he did not have long-term Hanlin qualifications, and his future prospects were only a Shangshu.
But now it is different. Once transferred back to the capital, there may be a new appointment and removal. Could this person... may he also enter the cabinet in the future?
Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others looked at each other.
People of their age value successors very much.
They will retire sooner or later, and in the future, anyone who will take over their jobs is likely.
After all, after retirement, the tea is cold after leaving.
For example, in history, Li Dongyang and Yang Yiqing were fellow villagers. Li Dongyang retired. After some years, he was seriously ill. The court began to discuss his posthumous title. Yang Yiqing asked the emperor to posthumously award him Duke Wen Zheng.
The emperor agreed, and Yang Yiqing ran to find Li Dongyang without saying a word. Li Dongyang was still on the sickbed, dying. As soon as he heard about Wen Zhenggong, he knew that this was the strong recommendation of Yang Yiqing, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet at this time. Li Dongyang was so excited that he actually got up from the sickbed and wanted to salute Yang Yiqing to thank him.
This Wen Zhenggong is the peak of his ministers. He is the so-called "being a tutor in life and being a posthumously named Wen Zheng when he dies. If he can get this posthumous title, Li Dongyang will die immediately, and he will be happy.
But if the cabinet ministers of later generations don’t fight against him, it would be a difficult situation. Wen Zhenggong would not think about it. It would be good if he didn’t counterattack. How many people would not end up in the end?
Ouyang Zhi and Liu Jian are extremely relieved. This is a loyal and honest man. If he can enter the cabinet in the future, even if he will not treat the three old guys well, there will be no possibility of taking advantage of the situation.
But Wang Shouren has a bad personality... and he doesn't say hello when he sees him.
Can it work?
Of course, only Li Dongyang was happy to see this. He and Wang Shouren had known each other for a long time, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they had grown up.
"Abide by the order!"
The three of them still saluted obediently. At this time, it was urgent for officials and gentry to pay food together. At that time, God knew what kind of chaos would happen, and it would be better to recall Wang Shouren. Fang Jifan's disciples would count on the other one, at least, not bad things would be done.
"Ouyang Zhi, have you gone to Dingxing County?"
Emperor Hongzhi's case: "I'm really a little uncomfortable with him if he is not by my side."
As he said that, Emperor Hongzhi looked at a Hanlin, a guest standing in the distance.
The Hanlin, who was at the throne, lowered his head and pretended not to hear anything.
Liu Jian couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, for some reason."
Emperor Hongzhi thought about it and his voice became lighter, as if he was afraid of hurting the self-esteem of the Attorney Hanlin: "I always feel that they are talking too much."
“…”
This... is nothing to do.
You can't shut them up.
Emperor Hongzhi lowered his head again and glanced at Wang Shouren's memorial: "Fang Jifan has several disciples, one Xu Jing, went out to sea, why didn't he listen to Fang Jifan mention it again? There is also Tang Yin, who is practicing sailors in Ningbo, and it is said that he is also very passionate. He has experienced enough outside, and I am thinking..."
Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Now it's time to use people. Let's call him back and let his other disciple, Qi Jingtong, take his post temporarily. There is another one...Is it Jiang Chen?"
"Yes." Liu Jian said.
"Everything comes back!" Emperor Hongzhi said with a smile: "I only look at this Wang Shouren and know that his disciples are all talents. At this time, I need to rely on them."
Emperor Hongzhi paused: "I am relieved only when they are all in Beijing."
"I will obey the order."
Emperor Hongzhi sat down: "I should give these disciples of Fang Jifan a little chance."
This is not a chance.
Once Dingxing County starts to make trouble, how many people are there around Your Majesty?
……………………
"What? Are you going to come back?" Fang Jifan was happy after hearing this.
"This is the news from the palace." Zhu Houzhao said excitedly: "The news from this palace has always been well-informed. Haha, congratulations, congratulations."
Fang Jifan was also very moved: "It's great. Except for Qi Jingtong, our master and apprentice can finally be reunited."
Thinking about it...
It seems that something is missing: "Yes, except Xu Jing, I like Xu Jing the most. When I think of him wandering overseas, my heart hurts!"
Zhu Houzhao was furious. He came excitedly after hearing the news: "I heard that Wang Shouren made great contributions this time. He was in Jiaozhi and had outstanding political achievements. Mr. Liu personally wrote an article and put it in the palace newspaper to praise the matter."
"Is that true?" Fang Jifan said: "Get the di newspaper and I'll take a look."
Zhu Houzhao was prepared and took out an article from his arms: "The newspaper has not been copied yet, but I have ordered someone to copy it, you can take a look."
Fang Jifan did not hesitate and looked carefully.
Educate the local area, and then lead people to cultivate.
This guy...is really capable.
