I engaged in modernization in ancient times

Mo Shaoheng and Zhao Di drank tea in the teahouse. After waiting for a long time, Zhao Jingcheng and others had not returned.

Just as they were about to send someone to find someone, at this time, Zhao Jingcheng and other students had already rushed back.

"Teacher, we found something good."

One by one, they didn't wear any winter shoes, and their trousers were too high.

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, what's the matter?Let's see everyone excited.

When I went downstairs, I saw a person holding a small stone-sized seed in his hand.

"Teacher, this is called taro mother. There is a pond outside Lincheng, which is full of taro mother. People in Lincheng dig it every year to eat it."

"Just now, the old household cooked some for us, and they tasted pretty good."

Mo Shaoheng: "..."

Really let them find something good.

"Teacher, is this a specialty product?"

Mo Shaoheng nodded and said, "If the annual production of taro mothers in Lincheng is sufficient, I can buy them all."

A group of students: "..."

Their teachers are doing business, and they don't even let the grass beside the nest be spared.

However, this is what they discovered, and they were overjoyed.

Mo Shaoheng hurriedly asked them to wash their feet and put on their shoes so as not to catch a cold.

The following group of servants breathed a sigh of relief.

Isn't it just a local snack?Why does it feel that their young master is happier than finding some gold and silver treasures.

A group of people walked towards Liangjing happily again.

"I didn't expect to arrive so soon after taking a trip to Liangjing and Lincheng. Doesn't it mean that we can often come to the city to play in the future?"

Mo Shaoheng said, "To get rich, building roads first is not just for fun. With this road, our products in Liangjing can be easily sold to Lincheng."

"Some features of Lincheng can also be sold in Liangjing."

"Exchanging what is needed will drive development."

……

Not many days later, there was another new product in Wuyi Lane.

When passing by a milk tea shop, I can often see children holding up copper coins and saying in a childlike voice, "For a cup of milk tea, add more taro paste."

The word Bobo has to be said with an upturned mouth, so that it is authentic.

It's all the fault of those little peddlers, who do this every time they call taro bobo, which leads everyone astray.

Mo Shaoheng was also busy with two things.

The first thing is what Zhao Jingcheng discovered. In compulsory education, the interpretation of all Beiliang children is misunderstood in many places as only boys, and girls are still restricted from going to school.

Education in Beiliang still has a long way to go.

Since Mo Shaoheng saw it, he couldn't ignore it.

In the Golden Palace, Mo Shaoheng proposed the concept of the court interpreting the law.

"The so-called interpretation means that some of the laws promulgated by the imperial court are easy to be misunderstood. At this time, it is necessary for my highest institution in Beiliang, that is, the imperial court, to give the most fair and correct interpretation of the law. .”

"I, Beiliang, respect the laws of Beiliang. There is only this legal code, not each place. According to their own understanding, they set their own laws."

Mo Shaoheng emphasized the importance of the law, "A reasonable law is the cornerstone of the stability of our Northern Liang, and must not be abused by local officials."

"Local officials, when judging a case, must also follow the terms of the law, rather than relying on personal preferences. It is taken for granted that they can be sentenced as they want."

The situation Mo Shaoheng mentioned is not uncommon in various places.

Scholars didn't study the law before. If these nobles who were recommended to be officials in various places were still sober, they might still read the Beiliang law.

But if someone doesn't know how to make progress, heh, he judges the case based on his own likes and dislikes.

This has also led to the fact that the people dare not report to the officials when they are wronged, and collusion between the officials and the people often occurs.

"My Beiliang must have laws to abide by and laws to abide by. Only in this way can my Beiliang enjoy long-term peace and stability."

There was also a lot of discussion in the Golden Palace.

Mo Shaoheng's thinking has some shadows of the sages.

In history, it is not without law-based dynasties.

But a dynasty free from the rule of man always feels a little too cold.

Sure enough, someone made this point.

Mo Shaoheng said, "The reason why some people think the law is too strict is not the fault of the law."

"It's that the law-makers are too strict, and wishful thinking has enacted too many cruel laws and evil laws."

"That's why I suggest that I rebuild my Northern Liang law."

"No matter how big or small, every bit of it must conform to our national conditions in Beiliang."

"But once the law is passed, it needs to be strictly enforced."

On the Golden Palace: "..."

Restoring the law?

The laws of Northern Liang are all the versions of the previous dynasties.

Besides, rebuilding the law is not an easy task.

But if you really want to do what Mo Shaoheng said, there are laws to follow, laws to abide by, and peace in the world, then the laws must be reorganized.

For example, their laws in Beiliang have some harsh clauses that are not implemented now, such as beheading, tongue-gouging, and quartering.

Mo Shaoheng also sighed, he also knew that this was a big project.

Said, "My people in Beiliang, no matter men or women, no matter how old or young, are the people of saints."

"I hope that your lords and saints can give them a fair world. Even if they make mistakes, they will not be treated differently. For those who have not made mistakes, Beiliang Law can also become their existence to protect them."

Everyone: "..."

fair.

This is not the first time Mo Shaoheng said this. He also said this when he was doing business with businessmen from various countries. He hoped that businessmen from various countries who came to Liangjing would be treated fairly.

At that time, the target was someone from outside Beiliang.

How's the effect?

Nowadays, more and more businessmen come to Liangjing, and they are all smiling when they come, and they are very willing to do business with Beiliang, because Beiliang guarantees their rights and gives them fair treatment.

Now, it's the turn of your people.

Mo Shaoheng talked about the benefits of a society ruled by law.

"The legal system is still people-oriented and puts people first, which not only enables the people to keep their own law and order."

"It can also make the world less evil officials, mediocre officials..."

"With proper laws, the local government can be governed conveniently, and officials can be better controlled..."

For the imperial court, once the legal system is established, it will be much easier.

For the people, the law will be the instrument by which they defend themselves.

In the Golden Palace, what everyone heard was an ideal social situation.

Whether it can be realized or not, it does make people shine.

It is impossible to convince hundreds of officials in such a matter in one day, and Mo Shaoheng is preparing for a protracted battle.

At the same time, the court's interpretation of compulsory education also began.

The imperial court suddenly discovered that they seemed to be very short of talents in this area, and their eyes could not help but turn to the imperial examination to obtain official positions.

Because there are law questions in the imperial examination questions, nowadays scholars really have a copy of Beiliang law.

He couldn't help but look at Mo Shaoheng. Could Mo Shaoheng have been waiting for this moment since the establishment of the imperial examination system?

Mo Shaoheng coughed. In fact, the imperial court lacked talents, and Liangjing also lacked scholars.

Isn't the various factories in Liangjing expanding their recruitment, and it turns out that it is extremely difficult to recruit people, whether it is accounting or counting.

This is all due to the lack of culture and education, and the sudden need for such talents, which led to such a gap.

In addition, Mo Shaoheng was still busy with the problem of drawing lines on the cement road.

I heard that there are more and more cars and horses on the concrete road now, and there is already chaos.

In the morning, it was even heard that two carriages collided, and the wounded were carried into the city, causing a great commotion.

First, the common people are not used to such a fast concrete road, driving a horse-drawn carriage like before, most of them can't stop their pace.

Second, it is indeed necessary to standardize the rules of use on the cement road.

Mo Shaoheng and Minister of the Ministry of Industry were standing at the beginning of the concrete road.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry was still looking at the public announcement stone tablet at the end of the road, on which was written the rule of walking on the right, and asked, "Are you sure this will work?"

Mo Shaoheng replied, "Just writing the rules here is definitely not enough."

After all, many people do not know how to read.

Minister of the Ministry of Industry: "Then?"

Mo Shaoheng pointed to the back, and saw Nan Yi, Zhao Jingcheng and other students, as well as small shopkeepers such as Douzi, wearing a red sleeve on their wrists, looking menacing and ready to go.

Mo Shaoheng said, "Of course we need reasonable guidance. I call them traffic guides."

After finishing speaking, he said to the group of "traffic guides", "Now, you are working for the imperial court, if you encounter disobedient ones, just write down what kind of caravan and mansion they are, and the imperial court will find trouble for them. "

These words are mainly for the small shopkeepers, who are timid and would only secretly wipe their tears when they are bullied.

Douzi shrunk his head, "I... I still don't dare."

Mo Shaoheng smiled. After all, he is also a small shopkeeper in the Zhenbei Palace, so why not dare, besides, he is still holding high the banner of the imperial court.

Mo Shaoheng waved his hand, "Go, just follow the rules I taught you."

The cement road is drawn with a center line, which is to facilitate vehicles to drive on the right, so as to avoid collisions as much as possible.

The sidewalk lines are also drawn on both sides, and some places are left on both sides for pedestrians to walk on.

In the eyes of Mo Shaoheng, the simplest rules of use are extremely strange to the people of Liangjing.

Of course, there are a lot of people who don't understand, so these "traffic guides" need to explain. The car crash this morning became an on-site teaching.

"In the future, there will be more and more caravans on our road, that is to say, there will be an endless stream of carriages."

"The cement road makes the carriage run extremely fast. If it is coming from the opposite side, there is no time to dodge it."

"There are more carriages, the speed is faster, and it is easy to hit pedestrians."

"Now, the roads for cars, the roads for pedestrians, it's much safer."

The little peddlers are now doing their duty, shyly running to explain to the pedestrians and carriages who have gone astray.

Mo Shaoheng wasn't worried about them either, because these peddlers were assigned to Zhao Jingcheng and other students, and each of them took a bunch of them.

Compared with the shy and polite appearance of the small shopkeepers, Zhao Jingcheng and others have a different style of painting.

Say or not?

Oh, they are more evil than each other.

Don't look at Zhao Jingcheng and others are being honest now, but they are all the little overlords of Liangjing, and they are stubborn?It really takes a little bit of skill to get past them.

The wicked need the wicked to grind.

What's more, they are still reasonable now. With the big banner of the imperial court, they are really not afraid of anyone.

Of course, it was confusing at first.

Because it is a rule that has never been touched, it still takes a little time to get used to it.

But in just a few days, the concrete road outside Liangjing City has become a different scene.

Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce was so read that his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Because he had never seen such a rule before, he couldn't think of the result.

Looking at it now, the vehicles are well behaved, and the people don't have to worry about being hit by the horse-drawn carriage, and the horse-drawn carriage doesn't have to worry about hitting people.

It is much more efficient than when it was chaotic at the beginning.

In the beginning, the gates of the city were often blocked, and those who went out of the city were matched with those who entered the city. No one could enter or exit.

But now, there's no problem.

The common people were also very surprised. It seems that the rules are not complicated. You only need to remember the four words "keep to the right", and it can change the paralyzed traffic.

"This, this... is simply a spectacle."

"It is estimated that outsiders will be shocked when they see this admiration."

Mo Shaoheng looked quite satisfied, and the implementation of the "traffic rules" went smoothly.

Mo Shaoheng waved to Nan Yi, Zhao Jingcheng, Dou Zi and others.

In fact, they just came here to make a sample. After all, the cement road was operated by the imperial court, and Mo Shaoheng's loan of people was also a model for the imperial court.

The imperial court only needs to continue as they do, and the operation of the cement road is not a problem at all.

As a result, the imperial court directly recruited those students from Mo Shaoheng Liang Jingwei Middle School, and asked them to teach some "traffic instructors" of the imperial court.

This is something to say later, now, Mo Shaoheng said to a group of people, "Are you tired these days?"

Douzi nodded his head, "Shizi, my throat is so hoarse, I've talked too much these days, I still speak softly."

After speaking, he also glanced at Zhao Jingcheng and others.

Zhao Jingcheng and the others roared loudly, and the training was scary, so they all hid behind and watched.

Zhao Jingcheng stopped talking, because he couldn't speak, and he didn't expect it to be so difficult to speak.

Mo Shaoheng smiled and said, "It's been a rough few days, I'll take you to play today."

As soon as the voice fell, a group of people were so happy that they almost jumped up, especially the small shopkeepers such as Douzi. This was the first time Mo Shaoheng took them to play.

With a big wave of his hand, he led the crowd towards the canal.

"Are we going to visit the canal?"

They also like to go to the canal to play when they are free, but looking at Mo Shaoheng, they feel that today is very different.

Mo Shaoheng didn't say a word, and when he got to the edge of the canal, he said, "Today we are fishing, just to replenish your health."

"what?"

"Fishing?"

They went to the canal to play, one was to watch the river water, and the other was to watch the fish in the river.

Sometimes, the fish would fly out of the water directly, causing a crowd of exclamations. Not only did they like to watch it, but the people in Liangjing also liked it.

The fish in the canal have all grown up.

But how to catch?

The canal is not big or small, but it is probably impossible to fish in dry water.

Before Mo Shaoheng could explain, many people had already walked over.

Still have something in hand.

"My lord, the sheepskin raft you asked for has been brought."

Sheepskin rafts, intangible cultural heritage, also have a history of many, many years.

It is a well-known local specialty in some areas.

The sheepskin is sewn into airtight pockets, which are then tied together and only need to be inflated to form a large raft.

Mo Shaoheng has raised so many sheep, so it is natural to use them.

Sheepskin rafts were carried over one by one.

There is also a sheepskin life jacket made of the same principle.

Mo Shaoheng said, "Do you want to experience the fun of fishing?"

"I'll put on the life jacket and get on the sheepskin raft later, and just follow the arrangements of the adults above."

With life jackets and these adults who know how to swim, even a group of landlubbers can be caught immediately after falling into the water.

This is the weather, it is estimated to be cold.

Confessed, "Be sure to follow the instructions of the people above."

Mo Shaoheng originally brought them here to play, not specifically for fishing.

There are also fishing nets placed on the sheepskin raft.

A group of students, as well as the little peddler, were overjoyed.

"It feels a little exciting."

"Is it the same as our merchant ship?"

The corner of Mo Shaoheng's mouth entered the stage, and the gap was still huge.

Some people can't help but try it.

The little guy, Douzi, looked timid, but he put on the life jacket and climbed up.

in the sun.

The sheepskin raft began to head towards the middle of the water.

"Oh? It's so shaky."

"It shakes so badly."

"It's nothing like our merchant ships."

The sound of stimulation and the sound of chirping and chirping are all connected together.

However, it immediately turned into "hahaha" laughter that couldn't stop.

Even Douzi was lying on the sheepskin raft. From the beginning, he didn't dare to open his eyes, but now he used his hands to paddle in the water.

"Douzi, you stand up, it's so fun to stand up."

Douzi shook his head like a rattle, he didn't feel ashamed at all, because Zhao Yuning on the sheepskin raft next to him was just like him, only dared to play in the water on his stomach.

On the shore, the child who didn't go up asked vigorously, "Is it fun? Are you afraid?"

Run with the sheepskin raft.

At this time, the adults on the sheepskin raft had already cast down the fishing nets.

Regardless of whether the net caught any fish, the raft was supported by bamboo poles, dragging the fishing net and moving forward slowly.

Shuiguang, laughter.

If you have played rafting friends, you should be able to feel what kind of joy it is.

After rowing for a quarter of an hour, the boat began to dock.

When the students and shopkeepers on the boat got off the boat, they were still so happy that they couldn't stop talking from ear to ear.

"It's so exciting, it's like falling into the water."

With his calf between his hands, Douzi said shyly, "I was so scared that I almost peed just now, but the crown prince said that you don't have to be afraid if you wear a life jacket."

Scared and happy at the same time.

Perhaps this is the first thrilling game they've ever played.

Stimulating games, some people are afraid, some people like it very much, just like the roller coaster in the amusement park, there are always countless people trying, or on the way to try.

The grown-ups felt it was funny looking at the group of children who were screaming just now, their faces turned pale from fright just now, but they were very happy when they landed on the shore.

They still had something to do, yelled at the children next to them, and dragged the fishing net up together.

The eldest son told them to let these children experience fishing. On the boat, they would let these children help when casting nets. Of course, if they were too scared to stand up, they would not force them.

Doudou's feet were a little soft, but he happily went to drag the fishing net together.

He felt that today was really too happy.

And as the fishing net was dragged up, people were shocked.

"There's something in the net."

"I felt movement, like a struggle."

It immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Waiting to drag it up a bit.

In the fishing net, white things are churning.

"It's a fish."

"Good...a lot of fish."

What catches the eye is all white, because the belly of the fish is white.

Douzi's eyes widened.

Well... so many, never seen so many fish.

Even adults are happy.

The fishing net was dragged ashore together.

A group of people surrounded the past.

"How much is this?"

Mo Shaoheng also heaved a sigh of relief, the fish he had spent a lot of money on had finally yielded results.

Judging by the amount of catch, it can be regarded as a bumper harvest.

Someone lifts the bucket and puts the fish from the fishing net into the bucket.

Fishing is not over yet, these fish can be directly made into salted fish, not many.

There was not enough salted fish to sell, but now the demand has just been eased. Now that the roads in Lincheng have been repaired, it is much more convenient to sell them in Lincheng.

The sheepskin raft set off again, with the second batch of small shopkeepers on board.

Douzi was laughing so loudly on the bank that he couldn't see his eyes, and the laughter was cracked, "They laughed at me just now, and now they are screaming in fright."

Laughter, how can not stop.

Even Liangjing City heard the news.

"Did Mo Shaoheng fish in the canal?"

"I just said that his fish are almost full, and they were very big when they came out of the water last time."

At first, they thought that Mo Shaoheng must be crazy for raising fish in the canal. The canal is so long that they have to run away.

As a result, Mo Shaoheng directly poured a lot of fish fry into it, and occasionally poured bean dregs and distiller's grains into the river.

"This fish grows a little fast?"

"Can't you be quick? It's not a wild fish without food. Mo Shaoheng spent a lot of food, and the cost alone can't be estimated."

"I don't know if Mo Shaoheng will lose money this time."

"I just heard that the harvest seems to be quite good."

Not long after, the people watching the excitement came to the edge of the canal.

Mo Shaoheng and the others have already caught a lot of fish.

Looking at the wooden barrels on the shore, the eyes of the common people almost fell out.

It's not like they haven't seen fish. Mo Shaoheng's fish truck transports live fish from far away places to Yufu every day to make fresh fish for sale. I heard that they have to make a reservation every time to eat fresh fish. After all The live fish pulled in are nothing compared to the entire Liangjing city.

But I have never seen buckets of buckets filled the embankment like now.

The only bad thing is that these buckets don't have lids, and there are too many fish in them, so small shopkeepers have to stand by the side of the buckets and use their hands as lids to prevent the fish from jumping out.

From time to time, I can hear the little peddler screaming "Oh, oh!" because the fish is too cunning, and it was obviously quiet one moment, but it was launched from the bucket the next moment.

Hurry up and catch the fish back into the bucket, but the catch is still not stable, slippery, and I have never caught fish before.

Fortunately, the fish barrel is some distance away from the canal, otherwise the fish would escape back into the river.

Douzi almost cried, his fish was the most disobedient, and when he caught one fish, another jumped out, exhausting him to death.Seeing more and more people coming, Mo Shaoheng rolled his eyes.

Well, the wharf can form a market for selling live fish.

In modern times, the fish at the pier is the freshest and cheapest.

Because there is no venue fee, no middleman to make the difference, and because the freshest salvage from the river just now, it is very popular among the people.

Recruited two people, said a few words.

Not long after, someone yelled, "Fellow folks, today we are selling fish from Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, taking advantage of the festive day."

"It was just salvaged from the river, look, it's alive and kicking."

"Come and buy it, the price is cheap."

Everyone: "..."

I couldn't help but stepped forward to ask a few words, but I was really pleasantly surprised by the price.

This is because Mo Shaoheng originally planned to use these fish to make salted fish, and the price of salted fish is definitely not as good as that of fresh live fish.

Therefore, a slight price reduction, in the eyes of the common people, is a profit, but in fact, if Mo Shaoheng can sell it, he will still make a profit.

"It's almost Chinese New Year, I wish you all a good year."

As soon as the festive words were said and the atmosphere arrived, many people really bought it happily.

Mo Shaoheng looked at the enthusiasm of the scene, and now only a part of them came to see the excitement. When the news spreads, more and more people will come to buy fish, especially the nobles. Sometimes the nobles don't care about the price at all. , but the food itself.

In the past, the live fish that Mo Shaoheng transported back to the city were used by his own Yufu, and they had no place to buy them if they wanted to, but now it is different.

Besides, the current fish price is more reasonable.

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, the fish market at the wharf should not be a problem.

At this time, Douzi came running over, angrily, "My lord, I was bullied by the fish just now, and some people saw that I was having trouble guarding the fish, so they all came to buy my fish, and they were all sold out."

Mo Shaoheng laughed, "It's been a hard day today, and we will also eat fish in the staff cafeteria later, how about braised fish?"
