Chapter 941: The prestige of the soldiers broke the curtain

However, as a monk with profound Dharma and knowledge of the Ph.D., it is extremely rare to be able to put forward corresponding optimization suggestions and detailed improvements to the existing hydraulic and steam machinery workshops under the Taiping Army's rule. Some of the brief descriptions of the scene and the use of terminology also make people feel like they are on the scene. Obviously, they have really worked hard and devoted themselves to it.

What surprised Zhou Huaian even more is that he mentioned several discoveries and speculations in the article; for example, the stress reduction of steel castings and the thermal expansion and contraction of different materials are already very close to one of the main theorems of later physics. It's even more rare. We must know that although the Taiping Army is a big business and has gathered a lot of people with expertise in various fields in the large workshops, the most lacking is currently necessary for the construction of primary industries, and it has both mathematical, physical and chemical basic disciplines and practices. Applied Talents.

Although behind this cessation, Daqinglong Temple and Daxingshan Temple, which moved south with the Taiping Army, represent the shadow of the monks of Tang Mi's line; but it is because of his practical and practical rationalization suggestions and "new discoveries". How about giving him a chance to perform? . Of course, Zhou Huai'an then annotated with a blue liner at the end: "Ling return to vulgarity";

This is also the bottom line and red line drawn by Zhou Huaian for the many monks currently serving under the Taiping Army. Usually asked to come out to be close to and serve the public, and by the way part-time some cultural education and propaganda ministry. But if you want to transfer to another position, or get a promotion within the formal system, you must return to the vulgarity, and there is no discussion.

And it's not allowed to just change places and dress, and practice at home to return to the vulgar, but to return to the vulgar completely, like ordinary people in the daily life of marrying wives, children, and supporting their parents. If you can't even pay for this point and the price, what ambition and determination can you talk about to help the world and the people

This is also used to distinguish and filter, who are the stalwarts who are truly devoted to the Dharma, or other people who have avoided Buddhism due to various reasons such as confusion and nowhere to go; or use Buddhism as a hiding place to escape the legal system. , Or speculators who use this as a sign to make money and profit. Even if it is the last one, as long as the square is placed in the right place, it can come in handy.

The other one is a middle-aged inspector named Bian Gang from the nuclear accounting department.

It is said that Naifu was originally just a small official of the Chang'an Si Tiantai (Qin Tianjian), but he inherited the mantle of the former mathematician and astronomer Nangong Shuo and Liang Lingzhan. He is known as Dongxiao astronomy and broadly understands the study of yin and solar calendars. In the Dazhong taboo's imperial dispute, he had to flee south to Jiangling to avoid disasters. In Biangang's own generation, he worshipped the Taoist Gu Qichan.

And this is also the leader who was responsible for collecting data and information from all parties in private among the many malpractices of the "three detachments" under the anti-revolutionary committee. Because although the ultimate motivation for starting this secretly was not so good; but most of the information he presided over the collection was still unfounded or unfounded first-hand evidence, so the involvement was so extensive that it was dealt with and distracted. Many people are waiting.

Therefore, after the turmoil here subsided, Zhou Huaian asked people to find him who thought he was going to be unlucky, and transferred it to the audit department specially used to provoke people to make the best use of it. It’s just that when I saw his name for the first time, Zhou Huaian couldn’t help but suddenly wanted to vomit one or two things, such as asking him face to face, what is the relationship between him and the one who wants to eat the whole family bucket after rebirth? Is it

Of course, it’s not easy to say that. In most of the feudal era, only those outsiders with Taoist and Buddhist backgrounds had so much free time and energy to study these techniques while receiving secular offerings. Compared with the report on the status and improvement of agencies and workshops full of hard-core terminology, Bian Gang’s report is related to agricultural production.

For example, in the northern regions where the population is relatively sparse and the labor force is limited (mainly Shannan Dongdao and Huainan), there has actually been a phenomenon of horse farming where price comparisons are common. Although the cost of raising horses is much higher than that of cattle, additional concentrated feed is needed to supplement the fat during labor and winter; but the corresponding production and labor efficiency (lifetime and load) is much higher than that of cattle in the north. . (Southern buffaloes have higher endurance and weight, but they need to rely on pond water to cool down)

Therefore, in the villages north of the Yangtze River where human resources are relatively limited, and the surplus of agricultural products and subsequent processing leftovers are relatively surplus; horse farming has become popular. Because in the northern region, which is dominated by dry land, the window period for cultivating, planting and harvesting is only a dozen or twenty days each year; coupled with unexpected factors in the weather, once it is missed, it may be due to land loss or It is the consequence of no harvest.

(In spring, there is plenty of sunshine and little rain. One or two days after the spring rain is the most suitable period for sprouting and strong seedlings; while the autumn is high and the air is gradually drier, the harvested fields are easily dehydrated and hardened. Therefore, timely ridges are also needed. Sowing winter wheat to prepare for the winter; under the heat of summer, it is also necessary to top-dress and top-dress water in a short period of time to ensure that the crops can bloom normally.)

Therefore, households in the village prefer to spend more soybeans, wheat and corn stalks daily to feed packhorses, and then in the labor production such as spring plowing and summer grabbing autumn harvests, through horse plowing or mules, horses, donkeys and horses, cows and horses and other different optimizations based on local conditions. Combine to compete for time and improve labor efficiency, thinking that as much land as possible will be reclaimed, and more crops will be harvested with less manpower input.

In this case, four or five people plus one horse and one donkey and mule can form a relatively optimized labor group; one person leads the horse and assists the plow to plow, one negative bag for sowing, and one or two people lead the donkey and mule to pull the cart. Add water and fertilizer to the seeds, and the last person is responsible for furrowing and repairing the nursery; almost within a day, you can complete the cultivation of 20 acres of cotton fields, 25 acres of wheat fields, and 30 acres of mulberry fields on flat ground;

And if through the coordination of the well-organized production department of the village, as long as the combination of a large brigade (300 people) and a herd team (eight or ninety cows, horses, donkeys and mules), you can have extra energy to manage and cultivate. From seven to eighty hectares of fields; and to ensure three harvests in two years (wheat, soybeans and wheat) or two harvests a year (rice and potato).

They even have time to go out for odd jobs during the winter slack, or to engage in handicrafts on the spot to supplement their family income; or to use intermittent fragmentary time to go to small and wild markets to go to markets, or even short-distance business activities. Therefore, although they are busy all year round under the arrangement of various production tasks, the corresponding economic conditions are far better than those of ordinary rural people in the surrounding area.

At the end of this essay, another thing was mentioned. For example, in contrast to the prosperity of Tunzhuang, the surrounding traditional villages have shown signs of desolation and depression one after another. Because under the original small-scale peasant economic system, these ordinary villagers, in accordance with the traditional way of men farming and women weaving, can no longer compete with the organizational order and scale production effects that come from the villages.

Except for the self-sufficient part, whether it is the rice or wheat they have grown or the soil silk that they have woven, they can no longer sell for any price in the market; naturally, they can't be exchanged for enough to improve their lives. Daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, not to mention the improvement of agricultural tools and joint efforts to purchase livestock to increase productivity and efficiency.

The most obvious change is the successive loss of various populations of the right age. Young and middle-aged people are forced to leave their hometowns and go to other places or nearby towns and cities to earn a living, while women try to marry into villages, even old bachelors and widowers; and the most popular ones are It is a retired soldier who has basic retirement protection and can serve as a grassroots post.

What formed an obvious linkage reaction was that the local small and medium-sized landowners, including renting, materials, and other costs began to rise. Although they escaped the Taiping Army's attack on the big households surnamed Yihao, and in the subsequent maintenance of order in the township, they became the representatives who were pushed out to contact with each other, and they gained a lot of benefits from it.

However, after many years, the market price of agricultural and sideline products has also fallen, and labor costs have risen, and various maintenance difficulties and signs of bankruptcy in disguised form and forced settlements have gradually appeared.

This also made Zhou Huai'an feel a little embarrassed. This is obviously the advanced productivity that has emerged across the ages. In the process of gradually replacing the productivity of the old feudal era, the continuous pain and other chain reactions inevitably produced. Although the proportion of these populations now accounts for a smaller and smaller proportion under the rule of the Taiping Army, Zhou Huaian still has to face it after discovering the problem and putting it before him.

Of course, the temporary solution is actually very simple. It is to issue a decree restricting the wastefulness of land. Families who fail to settle will be punished to varying degrees depending on the situation. The most serious ones will be directly confiscated of the deserted land, and the government will allocate and resettle others. This can also be regarded as a way to eliminate the old productive forces in a disguised form.

On the other hand, from the densely populated South, where only intensive farming can be used to obtain more output, more immigrants move their households northward to fill the local area. As new blood replaces and dilutes the local, relatively conservative and uninspiring and changing population structure. Although it will cause conflicts between the locals and the customers in the early stage, it is still beneficial to the long-term efficiency of the rule.

Naturally, from the perspective of long-term planning, we should increase efforts to promote the process of industrialization and the development of surrounding overseas markets; naturally, the production capacity and population growth expectations during the transition of these traditional agricultural societies can be fully absorbed and digested. , It will naturally be able to solve most of the social problems.

—I am the dividing line —

In Guanzhong, the city of Chang'an in Gyeonggi Province has successively occupied the Yanxing Gate and Anhua Gate in the southwest of the city, and the Yanping Gate and Chunming Gate in the southeast of the city. The Mingdeok Gate, which is like an isolated island on Zhuque Street, will be occupied one after another. The nearby fortifications were among the officers and soldiers surrounded by Tuan Tuan; Suo Xun, the deputy envoy of the Guiyi Army who had just moved into the city, received an unexpected news, and suddenly felt that the whole person was not good:

"What, it has been seven or eight days since the land of Shu hasn't transported grains and grass? The Shu army headed by Wang Jian is still quiet under the Taibai Mountain?" (End of this chapter)
