Daming: Teach the prince about dragon slaying skills at the beginning

"Of course I don't know."

He was a cowherd boy when he was a child, and then a refugee and beggar. It is a joke to expect him to understand etiquette.

The time when he really understood the relevant knowledge of etiquette was after he became a little leader of the Red Turban Army.

"Why don't you know?!"

Yan Changqing asked further.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said:

"At that time, my family was poor, not to mention going to school, I couldn't even afford a full meal, so I didn't have the opportunity and energy to learn about etiquette."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned. He knew what the first reason Yan Changqing wanted to say was.

Yan Changqing nodded and explained:

"As His Majesty said, if you can't even eat a full meal, how can you have the opportunity and energy to learn the knowledge of etiquette?"

"Food is paramount to the people!!!"

"For those people who don't have enough to eat, can ritual be eaten?!"

"Getting rid of the old Mongolian and Yuan rituals and repeating the old Chinese dress etiquette can make their dinner more sloppy?!!"

"Obviously not!!!"

"When you don't even have enough to eat, or even starve to death, who wants to care if you promote the old Chinese dress etiquette or the old Mongolian etiquette?"

"For them, the biggest gift is also the biggest reason, and that is to feed themselves!!!"

"If it's a bit extravagant, it's to feed my whole family!!!"

"So, before you can really feed the people, don't talk to them, because it will only make you look superior and why don't you eat minced meat."

Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes all became ugly when they heard the words.

Why not eat minced meat? ! !

They are actually the same as that idiot Jin Huidi, why don't they eat minced meat? ! !

It turned out that they were really fools! ! !

Not only are they idiots, but also the officials of Daming in the past were also idiots.

It's no wonder that over the past few years, Daming's promotion of repeating Chinese dress etiquette has had little effect.

It turned out that the root cause lies in this.

"Don't put your imagination into the lives of ordinary people."

"Maybe the most hungry feeling experience you can imagine is not eating for one or two meals, or at most one or two days."

"But for His Majesty when he was a teenager, the time when he was most hungry was when he almost starved to death."

"So you may not have a very obvious feeling."

"For example, if it is said that you can't even eat a decent meal of rice for ten days and a half months, you can only rely on drinking water, or eat bark, grass, wild fruits, etc. to survive, do you Can you bear it?!"

Yan Changqing looked at Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fang, Zhu Di and other princes and asked.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, Zhu Yu, Zhu Yan, Zhu Di and other princes all shook their heads when they heard the words. They couldn't do it, and they might even have died during this period.

"Sometimes the worst life you can imagine to the extreme, may be the fairy life that people dream of but can't get!"

"So don't casually say that you stand from the perspective of the common people and think about the common people."

"From the perspective of the common people, it is much more difficult than you imagined!"

"They have already risked their lives and exhausted all their strength just to survive."

Speaking of the last sentence, Yan Changqing heaved a long sigh.

A brickman in his previous life suggested that "low-income people can rent out their idle houses and use the rent to increase their income; they can also drive their private cars out to work to increase their income."

Excluding the premise that the brick is stupid and bad, with a serious thinking attitude, the other party may be sincerely speaking from the perspective of his own understanding and cognition.

Then two very simple conclusions can be drawn:

First, a person with an idle house and a private car at home is a low-income earner in the eyes of the other party.

Second, low-income earners will have at least a few vacant houses and their own private cars.

This is the low-income earners in the eyes of the other party.

In fact, the gap between the real low-income people and the "low-income people" that the other party calls is very different, and it can be regarded as really promoting those real low-income people.

Hearing what Yan Changqing said, Zhu Yuanzhang also felt sad.

The hungry stomach he experienced was completely different from the hungry stomach experienced by Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes.

[Should we find a time to really starve them for a few days, lest they become like that idiot Jin Huidi "why not eat minced meat" 0......]

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about the feasibility of this idea.

After all, if his son left a reputation of "why not eat minced meat" in the history books of later generations in the future, then Zhu Yuanzhang estimated that even if he died, he would be swindled by anger, and then he would take that unfilial son with him.

"If the warehouse is real, you know the etiquette, and if you have enough food and clothing, you know the honor and disgrace. Guan Sheng, more than 2000 years ago, has already told us this truth."

"However, some people are either really stupid, or they pretend to be stupid to understand it as knowing etiquette and being honest, knowing honor and disgrace and having enough food and clothing."

"I'm talking about Confucian idiots who are really stupid or pretend to be stupid!!!"

There was a touch of sarcasm in Yan Changqing's eyes, and those Confucianists always advocate etiquette, etiquette, and integrity, as if as long as everyone understands etiquette, honor and disgrace, then everyone can have enough food .

Similarly, there are "great benevolence" and "sacrifice one's life to be benevolent" such as when a thief comes, I die first, and when a disaster comes, I die first.

To this, Yan Changqing just wanted to say that everything was bullshit!

When thieves come, you don’t lead the people to catch the thieves, and when disasters come, you don’t lead the people to fight against the disasters. Instead, you only want to die for the thieves and disasters, as if you can influence the thieves and make the natural disaster retreat by doing so.

For such Confucian people, Yan Changqing just wanted to say that they were either stupid, bad, or both stupid and bad.

Zhu Biao's face was slightly embarrassed. After all, he was regarded as the prince who had received the most orthodox Confucian education.

Although he felt that what Yan Changqing said was reasonable, Zhu Biao still felt somewhat embarrassed when he heard Yan Changqing denigrating Confucianism so much.

[Mr. Yan really doesn't like Confucianism very much. 】

[Is it because of being expelled from the Imperial College before? ! ! 】

Zhu Biao thought about 0.3 strangely.

"Let's go back to the first reason. The biggest reason why your promotion of Chinese dress etiquette and other things is not smooth and has little effect is that there is no real, useful and visible benefit to the common people."

"But potatoes are not the case. It is a food crop that can really feed the common people, so the common people will naturally explode with unprecedented enthusiasm to accept and promote it."

"As for the second reason, it actually involves the issue of imperial power not going to the countryside. I will talk about this issue with you when I teach "Dragon Slaying Technique" later."

Yan Changqing finally summed up and explained the first reason, and then briefly mentioned the second reason.

After all, the issue of imperial power not going to the countryside is also a big issue. Maybe I can talk about it next time I teach "Dragon Slaying Technique".

Chapter 132: Teach the emperor and prince to grow potatoes 【Please subscribe, please order in full】

"Won't the imperial power go to the countryside?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang silently recited Yan Changqing's mention of imperial power not going to the countryside, and his intuition as the emperor told him that some unspeakable secrets of power were also hidden behind these few words.

It's just that seeing that Yan Changqing didn't want to go into details at the moment, Zhu Yuanzhang could only suppress his curiosity.

Anyway, Yan Changqing also said that he will talk about this aspect again when he continues to teach "Dragon Slaying Skills" later, and it would be nice to listen carefully at that time.

Yan Changqing looked down at the angle of the projection under his feet, thought about the conversion a little, and roughly judged the time at this moment.

Then Yan Changqing raised his eyes to look at Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fang, Zhu Di and other princes and said:

"It's been four quarters, let's stop here for now."

"Please trouble your Majesty to determine which area can be assigned to the Agricultural College in the past two days, and send someone to send me the relevant map."

"It is best to include the relevant geographical and cultural information of that area, such as where are the paddy fields and dry fields, where are the people living, etc."

"I need to roughly plan the overall construction layout of the Agricultural College and determine the most suitable area for planting potatoes."

"Strive to produce a map within three days, a plan within seven days, complete the clearing of the potato planting area within 06 days, and complete the sowing of the second crop of potatoes within 20 days."

"In this way, after five months, we should be able to harvest the second crop of potatoes smoothly."

Hearing Yan Changqing's schedule for the second planting of potatoes, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, Zhu Yu, Zhu Fang, Zhu Di and other princes were a little excited.

[For some reason, every time I hear Mr. Yan's arrangements for things, I always feel an uncontrollable excitement in my heart. 】

[It seems that as long as you do what Mr. Yan said, then things will definitely follow Mr. Yan's plan, and gradually advance until it is finally completed smoothly. 】

[Probably because Mr. Yan will always sort out a clear and definite stage execution time and tasks for the arrangement and execution of things. 】

[Then at what stage and time, what staged tasks will be performed. 】

[If the progress of the task is stuck, you only need to look at the current execution time to quickly and accurately know which stage the current task is stuck in, and then solve it in a targeted manner. 】

[In contrast, when the officials of the Ming Dynasty implemented, executed, and advanced related tasks, they did not have such a clear overview of the progress of the work at a glance. 】

[Maybe we can look back and see how to emulate it, maybe it can also improve the work efficiency of Ming officials. 】

......

Although Yan Changqing had already made a general arrangement on how to plant the second crop of potatoes, the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Yu, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di, etc. still looked at the pile of potatoes at Yan Changqing's feet eagerly.

Zhu Di looked at Yan Changqing, and tentatively said:

"Mr. Yan, you see we have been busy all day today, can you give us a potato and let us take it home and grow it ourselves?!"

In the words, Zhu Di even brought the other brothers with him.

After hearing Zhu Di's words, Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Yan and other princes couldn't help but said:

"Yes, Mr. Yan, we have been busy for a long time today. There is hard work without credit. Just give us a potato and take it back to plant. Anyway, it is planted at our place."

"That's right, it's impossible for us to cook and eat it, plant it in our respective houses, and when it matures, it will also be a future potato seed."

"As a prince, we naturally want to be the first in the world, and we must lead by example for the people of the world, and set a good example!"

"If we, as princes, don't grow potatoes, how will the people of the world believe in and be willing to grow potatoes in the future!"

"We also want to try how it feels to grow a potato with an yield of at least [-] shi per mu."

"Today, I was not only kicked by my father, but I will also be a farmer for Mr. Yan for five months in the future. If I don't have a potato for me to take back to plant, I won't be able to eat for the next five months!"

"Just give us one potato. Even if we give each of us one potato, there are still 130 eight potatoes that can be planted in the Agricultural College."

......

Not only Zhu Biao, Zhu Yu, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes were asking, but even Zhu Yuanzhang who was beside him was faintly moved.

After all, they are potatoes with an yield of at least [-] shi per mu. Even if they are princes and emperors, they still can't help but feel excited!

Yan Changqing smiled when he heard the words, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said:

"This matter must be decided by His Majesty."

In this regard, Yan Changqing is still very self-aware.

Since he contributed the potatoes, the potatoes are no longer his personal exclusive.

This potato is not only his, but also Zhu Yuanzhang's, and the people of the world! ! !

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was already faintly moved, stopped hesitating immediately after hearing that Yan Changqing had left the decision to himself:

"That's one for each person, but before you take them back, please ask Mr. Yan to teach them how to cut and plant and other related matters."

Although the "Potato Planting Experience" tells how to cut and grow potatoes, but now there is a teacher standing here, Yan Changqing, who does not ask for advice face to face, but reads the book instead, and it is inevitable that he will lose everything.

Hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Yan Changqing didn't shirk, and immediately picked up a potato from the ground, and then went to take out the knife, boiling water stove and other tools used to cut potatoes.

Afterwards, from Zhu Yuanzhang, the current emperor, down to Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fang, Zhu Di and other princes, they all surrounded Yan Changqing like a curious student.

Then Yan Changqing taught them how to cut potatoes around the bud eyes, such as cutting the seed potatoes longitudinally from the top to the navel, ensuring that each piece of potato has one or two bud eyes; sterilizing with boiling water after each cut, etc. wait.

After the cutting was completed, Zhu Yuanzhang and others were asked to push back the soil dug out three feet before digging the ground back into the field, which just saved the step of re-shoveling the field.
