Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2523: Jingkou Hill 8 does not study

Liu Yu calmly said: "As long as it doesn't affect the great cause of the Northern Expedition, everything will be discussed. From the perspective of Jiangbei's operations during this period, the entire village and households sent by the family and led by the heads of the village have more output than the original land. The individual military households and the people in Jiangbei are much higher than those in Jiangbei. This is something I didn’t expect. Or you’re right. Only by intensive production can the efficiency be greatly improved. A single small household and a small peasant economy can’t compare to this. Manor-style production."

Liu Muzhi nodded: "This requires experienced people to organize, coordinate, and manage. The kind of whole village emigration who obeys orders, sometimes can temporarily sacrifice the small profits of one family for the benefit of the whole village. Therefore, the rapid development, especially the distribution of fertilizers and irrigation, determines the upper limit of grain output. Now you need the output of military rations. I am afraid that the previous model of self-cultivation and the country’s land-to-household model cannot be promoted for the time being. "

Liu Yu sighed: "This is no way, because the facts have proved that collective farming, collective manor-style production, is much better than small households. The question now is who is the organization. At present, we can only Relying on these rich and experienced villagers, who have followed orders from aristocratic families, I believe that over time, these villagers can gradually accumulate property and redeem themselves freely. At this time, they can truly be used by the country."

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Yes, during the Warring States Period, Shang Yang Reformation was a policy of farming and warfare. If you do not serve as a soldier, but you do a good job of farming and produce high food, you can also get ahead. These farmers now owe a lot of money to the family. Money can only be driven by it, but now in Jiangbei, they will save money much faster than before. As long as we support policies and redeem them sooner, they will be appointed as village chiefs after they become free people. , Just like Pengjiacun, so that the whole village is in our hands."

Liu Yuzheng said: "But beware that at this time, the aristocratic family will use various means to prevent the bankers from redeeming themselves. If they find out that they eventually emigrate from Jiangbei, these places and people will no longer be their own, I'm afraid they will follow us. It's turned against each other."

Liu Muzhi said calmly: "As long as the military power is in our hands, we are not afraid of them coming in disorder. Moreover, we can give some money to the family at that time, or to the industries and shops in the city to exchange their rural fields and population. If the Northern Expedition is successful, the land will be expanded, and the interests of the aristocratic family will grow bigger and bigger. I don’t think there will necessarily be conflicts. What I am most worried about is actually the education and printing we talked about last time. Surgery."

   Liu Yu frowned: "Why, someone in the world realizes that this will be bad for them and wants to stop it?"

Liu Muzhi shook his head: "I am working on printing secrets. The news has not leaked. Some engravings that can engrave 30 characters are barely able to print. Now we are further improving the technology and selecting inks. At least two hundred sheets of paper can be printed on a board, which saves the manpower when carving. You know, carving a slate is still very labor-intensive now."

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "After the slate is practiced, the wood will be carved, and live wood can be used to replace the whole board in the future. This way the efficiency will be much higher. You still have to hurry up and try it out soon. Technology can be accomplished, then we can quickly produce a large number of books, and comprehensive education can also be carried out."

Liu Muzhi nodded: "Those are something for now. Now we don’t have a lot of books, but there is no small resistance to let Confucian scholars and scholars advance your education. We are only rebuilding Xixu in Jingkou. Thirty Confucian students were also recruited to teach, but no one wanted to come. This is more troublesome."

Liu Yu was slightly taken aback: "What's going on? Didn't it have been decided to give priority to the children of heroes to go to school according to the titles and merits? Now that Xu Xu has done it, and the husband is in place, why don't they go to school? "

Liu Muzhi shook his head: "We Beijing eight brothers, most of whom are still martial artists and rough people, feel that reading and writing is useless. As long as we have such a strength and the title and land granted by the state, we can live without worry. As for reading and writing, it is a matter for scholars. After learning these, they will not be able to practice martial arts or farm work. Then, just like the children of the aristocratic family, they will all be indifferent and wasteful."

Liu Yu laughed dumbly: "Are they just looking down on scholars like this? But I remember that in the past, anyone in our village who reads and learns words is an enviable and proud thing. It's not because you have been literate since you were a child, so even Can't fight, and no one will bully you?"

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "That's what happened in the past. In fact, the big guys didn't say that they value scholars more, but because the people in power are the family and scholars. In their impression, they can only be officials by reading and writing characters. , To have wealth. But now the other way around, the righteous men of Jianyi, these big bosses, one by one divided the fields, and got rich. Now I feel that reading a lot and knowing how to read is what use it is. As long as uukanshu.com has a good martial arts, as long as you are not afraid of death and are willing to work hard, you can naturally keep everything you have now."

Liu Yu's brows frowned tightly: "Don't they know that reading can be wise, can be polite, can broaden one's horizons and minds, only rely on fighting and killing, at most be a low-level officer, even a knighthood. It may not be there, but only if you have mountains and rivers in your heart and know the rise and fall of the world can you do great things and make you rich."

Liu Muzhi nodded: "That's because you have to read a lot to make this sense. Isn't it just because I read too little, so I don't understand the truth? Many soldiers still feel that the child has developed a muscle early, 14 or 15 years old. They can go to battle and kill the enemy, and they can also farm at home, which is better than studying. Moreover, they have a good worry, that is, scholars can study and become officials, but their children can do things after studying. What? Can I divide it up more, or can I be a clerk? Send slave, if you don’t handle the problem of reading and literacy, I’m afraid your kindness will not be accepted by the brothers."

Liu Yu let out a long sigh of relief: "Understood, Fatty, it seems that before we go to Jiangbei, we have to meet with the old brothers. If we are in Jingkou, this place with the most brothers cannot let the brothers send their children. You don’t have to think about other places when you study. Tomorrow, at the big campus, you invite all the brothers who are qualified to send their sons to the Xuxu, all come to the scene, and say, Brother Jinu, please drink and reminiscence!"
