In the Political Affairs Hall, after Xiao Yi decided on the national policy for Japan, he asked the ministers to start drafting the charter. When the time comes, he will review it, then form a national document, stamp it with the imperial seal of the state and the seal of the crown prince, and it will be considered as the official release of the national policy. .
These national policies must be promoted to the southeast, especially shipyards, docks, and the Southeast Maritime Chamber of Commerce.
Non-my family, its heart must be different.
This is the philosophy that Xiao Yi has always adhered to. Fortunately, officials in the DPRK also think the same way.
At this stage, the imperial court's focus on the Anxi Protectorate, Anbei Protectorate, and Andong Protectorate is to be gentle, vigilant, enlightening, and controlling.
After all, they have not yet been fully educated, and most of them are influenced by the original foreign consciousness. Only after two or three generations will they relax their vigilance.
In order to solve the problem of resettling hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops, the imperial court will also allow the soldiers to settle locally.
A warrior with a family is naturally out of the question.
It is impossible for hundreds of thousands of soldiers to move all their homes to the border.
First of all, this project is huge.
Secondly, the border areas are also bitter cold places and are not suitable for development. After going there, even food and clothing will be a problem.
When the imperial court ended the war, it allocated a lot of land to them.
They don't want to give up these lands either.
It's just that there must be many singles among the ranks.
The military officers from the Ministry of War and the Forbidden Army joined forces to make an off-site resettlement for these soldiers who had no relatives and no family.
Give them wives and let them start a family locally.
Wait until you are older.
Returning to his hometown with his wife and children, he entered the official offices of delinquents, royal guards, local supervisors, etc., and became officials in the county or state.
This is called beginning and end.
With such good treatment, the officers and soldiers in the army will naturally defend Daqian Guozuo to the death!
Bao Zheng asked doubtfully: "So, His Highness actually still has something to say?"
"good."
Dai Guang said with great certainty: "When I first talked about "The Wealth of Nations", I talked about extending the life of the dynasty and reforming the land system of Daqian. From the root, we must solve the three major burdens of farmers paying taxes to the country. .”
"Because these three major burdens are exactly the three main means used by the landlord class to annex the land of the farmers."
"If these three major burdens are resolved, the speed of land annexation and the ratio of the landlord class can be suppressed, thereby achieving the purpose of stabilizing the tax base of the dynasty and extending the life of the dynasty."
"Among them, the monetization of silver and the globalization of trade put internal conflicts in the external position, instead of just focusing on one-third of one-acre of one's own land."
"For Japan's national policy, it is not enough to divide and rule and cut the flesh with a sword."
"Since it is about control rather than mutual trading, we must add ideological enlightenment and spread Buddhism to the east, so that they can wholeheartedly do good and eliminate the evil thoughts in their hearts. This is just one of them."
"You can also let Confucianism spread eastward, and let them learn the Confucian loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, to be loyal to Daqian, the king of the heavenly kingdom, and to love Daqian, the king of the heavenly kingdom."
"Similar to Anxi and Anbei, after three generations, everyone will speak Chinese, everyone will respect Chinese etiquette, and everyone will be proud to be a Ganren."
"This is when we can truly control the land of Japan."
Why did Dai Guang say these words after Prince Xiao Yi left the Political Affairs Hall?
Isn't it because the prince Xiao Yi is now the prince overseeing the country of Daqian, the king of this huge territory, and the crown prince of the heavenly kingdom. He must be a person who is benevolent and righteous, loves the people like a son, has a broad mind, and can tolerate all rivers.
Words like this, things like this.
Of course it cannot be seen in the light!
It is not even allowed to be recorded in history.
That's why Dai Guang stopped Di Yan, Bao Zheng, Guo Ziyi, Zhang Taiyue, Li Daliang and others after Prince Xiao Yi left.
Zhang Taiyue was naturally a little bit intolerant. After all, what was the difference between doing this and being a robber?
A country is in heaven, but it is like boiling a frog in warm water, slowly killing a country.
Some of them are inconsistent with the Confucian literary concepts he received.
But now it is the general trend.
His opposition alone would only bring trouble to himself, so he naturally held it back and treated it as if he couldn't see it.
The same goes for Bao Zheng and others. After realizing the attitude of the Prince of the Supervisory State towards the people of Anxi Protectorate and other places, they also hesitated. However, they opened the history books and looked at the historical records. The wars suffered by the people of the Central Plains , almost all have the shadow of barbarians.
So I finally convinced myself.
Di Yan was the first to nod, agreeing with Dai Guang's strategy, and said: "What Dai Shangshu said is good, but one more thing needs to be added."
"His Royal Highness cannot do this."
"Only us people can come forward, and there is no need to put it on the table. Everyone just needs to understand."
Everyone nodded.
Xiao Yi looked at the four words on the desk.
Plow cattle.
seed.
Currently, there are many cattle in Daqian, including cattle in the north and buffalo in the south of the Yangtze River.
As for prairie cattle, they are used for meat and milking. They are good at movement and migration, and their meat is fat and fat. They are not the same thing as farm cattle. They are domesticated and trained for several generations.
When training cattle to plow the fields, the calf is first asked to pull something behind it, which is the root of a tree of this thickness, in order to exercise its physical strength.
When it comes time to practice plowing skills, the cows will wear nose rings, just like putting reins on a horse, so that the calves will be obedient and will not eat the crops in the fields even if they are extremely hungry.
As for the passwords, they were learned slowly and nothing happened overnight.
Therefore, it does not mean that you can have a lot of cattle after recovering places such as Harlem.
Xiao Yi has already taken out the Quyuanli.
This also greatly improves the efficiency of farming.
And if there are more cattle, the efficiency will be improved, and more wasteland can be reclaimed.
Because of farming all year round, every harvest and new farming requires plowing the soil.
The effect of plowing the soil is not only to loosen the land, but also to dig out insect eggs and other things in the land, cool it down, and reduce insect damage.
In ancient times, one of the reasons why locust plagues often occurred was that the soil was not turned over in time.
Another reason is naturally the climate.
Many times, if the soil is not plowed in time, farmers can only plant directly, resulting in low mass production and more pests.
With more cattle, more land can be plowed during spring plowing, which can increase food production, and a farmer can cultivate more land.
The current land share is actually not high.
Don't look at the tens of millions of people.
However, due to land annexation, local instability, and the migration of rural people to cities caused by the differentiation of urban and rural development, etc.
Many farmers have begun to move to counties, prefectures and other places.
And their land was naturally abandoned.
If these abandoned lands can be rented out to those who want to farm but cannot farm because they have no land, or to contractors, that is, grain merchants, who rent the land from these farmers and hire some Farmers, let them farm.
It is also an efficient form of farmland.
Cattle can encourage local breeding and cultivation. After all, land annexation has been prevented and a lot of fertile land has been returned to the people.
Public ownership of land can also be implemented slowly, and the court's prestige is high, and it can be controlled and managed.
The key is the seed.
Xiao Zheng also found a lot of seeds in Japan and planned to bring them back and give them a try after spring next year.
And Xiao Yi knew that if he wanted to get sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, he had to go west, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Americas.
Sweet potatoes are native to South America and the Antilles, and you must go to this place to find sweet potato seeds.
These three seeds can definitely enable Daqian to launch a true merit revolution, the kind that is more important than cement.
Why?
Life is all about eating.
When food and clothing are not a problem, people will focus on other places and have the remaining energy to do other things.
When people no longer worry about food, they will naturally find ways to improve their quality of life.
At this time, more innovation will follow.
Sweet potatoes can definitely feed many, many people.
Sweet potato seeds are planted in fertile soil at the beginning of spring, waiting for them to take root and sprout. Once sprouts have sprouted, they can be transplanted as seedlings.
In other words, as long as the sweet potato has stems and leaves, once buried in the soil, it will take root and sprout by itself, and then grow slowly.
Then it’s time to fertilize.
Then, there is the climbing of vines.
Because the sweet potato vines grow longer and more lush, if the vines are not pruned and the growth of the vine leaves is inhibited, the vine leaves will compete with the roots for water and nutrients.
The root of the sweet potato is the sweet potato that humans can eat.
Sweet potato vine leaves can also be fried and eaten, and they taste very good.
When not eaten, people can even eat the bark of elm trees.
Next is potatoes.
Potatoes are suitable for places like Longyou Road and Henan Road. Regardless of the Loess Plateau, these places are suitable for the growth of potatoes.
In Longyou Road, wheat can only be grown, because the water system is not developed and there is a year-round lack of water, so naturally there are no paddy fields.
In the south, the water system is developed and it rains all year round, so there are paddy fields.
Rice from the south is sold to the north, and flour from the north is sold to the south.
Of course, for ordinary people, people in the south cannot eat pasta, and ordinary people in the north cannot eat rice.
Sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn are suitable whether it is from the south or the north.
Potatoes originated in Peru and Chile in the Andes mountains of South America.
Corn was first produced in Mexico and Central America.
It is not easy to find these three high-yielding grain seeds. It does not mean that you can find them by searching overseas, or you can bring them back by just opening your mouth.
Until now, Daqian's maritime merchants have only reached the Strait of Malacca.
If you want to pass through the Strait of Malacca, you must be escorted by the Daqian Navy just like you did when you arrived in Japan this year.
Otherwise, you will definitely be robbed by pirates in the Strait of Malacca.
Fortunately, gunpowder technology has not yet reached the West.
Now Daqian has begun to install artillery on the ship. With one shot, the opponent's sailboat can be sunk no matter how good it is.
Therefore, finding three seeds is actually just a matter of time.
But it is precisely because of this time issue that it has become the biggest problem.
Time waits not for us!
Open up territory and expand the territory, make the world harmonious, optimize the system, light corvee and low tax, recuperate and recuperate, industrial innovation, educational power, and national economy.
The expansion of territory, the unification of the world, the optimization of systems, the reduction of corvee and the reduction of taxes, and the recuperation and recuperation have basically been completed.
The three pillars of industrial revolution, educational power, and national economy continue to be improved.
This process will be very long.
The key is actually that the production of food cannot keep up. Nowadays, the development of maritime trade and the increase of economic aggregate have led to more merchants starting to focus on voyage business.
There are also many large businesses that are beginning to think of ways to establish factories, breeding farms, etc.
The national economy has indeed improved significantly.
But it is precisely because of this that many people are pushed to either make money through work-for-work relief, or directly work in factories. With money, they can buy food, buy some property, and improve their quality of life. no?
Of course, people who cannot go out to work will find ways to contract some farmland, and their family will leave early and return home late to cultivate the land.
Only the industrial revolution and educational power are still difficult to implement.
The difficulty of the industrial revolution lies in the limited cognition of people in this era. All industrial innovations are concentrated in the Ministry of Industry and General Supervision.
The level of private industrial innovation is still too poor.
There is no soil for innovation, and the innovations of the Ministry of Industry and General Supervisors are all Xiao Yi's enlightenment methods.
I just threw out the drawings and ideas and handed them over to the engineering department for completion.
The principles, knowledge points, etc. are all ready-made. They don't need to understand them too much, as long as they can build them.
And innovation beyond these principles and knowledge points.
Very poor.
Almost nothing.
No matter how much Xiao Yi encourages everyone to innovate, it is still a drop in the bucket if he comes with patent protection or something.
For example, paragliders have not been built until now.
Because the cloth produced by the weaving technology of Daqian at this time was not very suitable for paragliding cloth.
Either the quality is not good or it leaks.
The industrial revolution must be a reform that is based on the improvement of most people's cognition, industrial level, industrial knowledge, industrial cognition, support of basic principles, etc.
Until now, Xiao Yi, a being like heaven, just took out many things and had them made by man, rather than being a product after the industrial revolution.
For example, handicrafts such as textile looms, curved plows, cement, hot air balloons, paragliders, gliders, blast furnace ironmaking, glass, glass mirrors, telescopes, wheelbarrows, four-wheeled carriages, rickshaws, horseshoe tendons and belts made of cowhide.
More derivatives were born from these, which can be regarded as a small industrial innovation.
But this is not enough.
For example, the creation of belts can make four-wheeled carriages faster, and can also make water mill spinning wheels and water mill carts more efficient.
Many handicrafts have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain this year.
But to say that this is the Industrial Revolution is not even close to that.
The difficulty of building a powerful country through education naturally lies in the content and methods of education, educational goals, educational standards, etc.
What is the real purpose of education?
Daqian's current education is to train officials for Daqian's court, and has no other purpose.
This is also the biggest reason why politics affects education.
The education in the feudal dynasty was naturally relatively feudal, with the Four Books and Five Classics and Confucianism.
After that, there might be some Luoxue, Taoism, Neo-Confucianism, Zhuxue and other theories appearing.
Xiao Yi naturally wanted to call for the realization of quality education and a major reform, not to train officials for the court, but to train talents needed by all walks of life for the government and the public.
But this is contrary to the concept of scholars.
Going in the opposite direction.
Just ask.
If you are a cattle herder or a person who pours night fragrance, you can both read and write poems.
What is the use of their reading?
At this time, there will inevitably be arguments that reading is useless.
But the person who shouts such slogans must have received higher education.
Reading is useless.
Don’t even ask those people who can’t read a word, ask them, what is the current situation like?
It must be difficult to travel.
Enlighten people's wisdom.
Promote education.
The purpose is to allow the industrial revolution to arrive earlier and allow the development of society to enter a fast lane.
In other words, everyone feels like there is a whip whipping him from behind, forcing him to move forward.
The root of this whip is demand, which is invisible comparison.
The current development of Daqian has indeed entered a formal stage.
Both the government and the public are relatively clear-minded.
The people can live and work in peace and contentment.
It is rare for the government to force people to rebel.
Even the three places of Anxi Protectorate, Anbei Protectorate, and Andong Protectorate have actually achieved living, working and recuperating in peace and contentment.
Regardless of whether they are Dangxiang people or Mongolian people, all they really want is to live a happy life.
Be it the Xixia court or the Mongolian and Yuan court.
They will listen to and support anyone who allows them to live a better life.
Great work at this stage.
In fact, it can be considered a peaceful and prosperous age.
However, this is not enough.
Of course not enough.
Xiao Yi held small classes every day just to find things to do for officials in both the government and the opposition, so that they would not be idle or focus on internal struggles.
Build the Great Wall, build roads and bridges, build canals, control floods in two rivers, confine water to attack sand, build water reduction dams, build reservoirs, etc.
All of these require people and money.
Then there is the construction of a traditional Chinese medical center and an official school.
after this.
The more important point is to increase or decrease teaching content.
Of the Four Books and Five Classics, a few must be reduced and a few added.
The arithmetic classics should be based on the nine chapters of arithmetic and the arithmetic scriptures written by Xiao Yi himself. Simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, as well as linear equations of one variable, etc., must be learned.
The second is studying things and studying principles.
To this, we need to add physics.
In the future, it will also be convenient for a writer to write a sentence saying that physics no longer exists.
Finally, there is geography.
He knows the territory of Daqian, the mountains and rivers, he knows the north of the North Sea, the North Pole, the South Pole, he knows Australia, America, and Africa.
Know the vastness of heaven and earth, the universe and the stars.
In addition to the original geography, astrology can also be added here, and the Taoist night sky observation is also a very good content.
