Seeing Qi Yu looking at him with deep meaning, the emperor couldn't help but be shocked.
At this moment, he already understood that Qi Aiqing's drunkenness did not lie in the wine, but in his ears.
Where is he teaching the students?
It is clearly a piece of advice that goes directly to Shengcong!
In this advice, he made both explicit and implicit statements.
What is clear is that it focuses on how to correctly cultivate a universal patriotic spirit, as well as the national cohesion and national pride brought about by the prosperity of the country and the people.
What An is referring to is that traditional literati are still very important. Their character can not only affect the spiritual outlook of the entire country, but also inspire the fighting spirit of military generals. This kind of power cannot be achieved by any technology.
From the above analysis, it is easy to see that there is neither conflict nor contradiction between technological innovation and traditional culture.
Previously, the emperor had been worried that emerging technologies would have an impact on traditional concepts, but now it turns out that he was overly worried.
The two can absolutely coexist.
Seeing that the emperor was so aware, Qi Yu gave him a heartfelt praise.
Haha, my special persuasion in a roundabout way was indeed in vain. It finally had some effect.
When we returned to the government office, it was already westward and noon was about to pass.
There was a slight delay in getting the meal, but it wasn't too late.
Just when Qi Yu was urging him to eat quickly, he saw the emperor stopping in the square opposite the provincial government office and looking at a statue in a daze.
This statue is none other than the image of Governor Qi working hard at the time.
That 'man' wore a bamboo hat and a raincoat, wielding a whip in his left hand and holding a plow in his right hand. He was exactly an honest and honest old farmer.
In the early days, the emperor always thought that this was just a symbolic sculpture, intended to show the government's emphasis on farming and mulberry.
However, just when he took a startling glance, he suddenly discovered that the facial features of that 'person' were in perfect harmony.
Gee, that’s so surprising.
What made the emperor even more incredible was that it was clearly engraved on one side of the statue that this image was based on real materials, not fictitious. Even the specific year, month and day were clearly marked.
In other words, this scene once really existed.
It is not difficult to understand that Qiongzhou at that time was still impoverished, primitive and backward, and it was a veritable wilderness.
Only a few years have passed, and such earth-shaking changes have taken place!
In addition to being incredible, the emperor really couldn't find more suitable words to express his mood at this moment.
At the same time, the emperor also deeply understood Qi Yu's efforts to govern. It can be said that Qiongzhou’s current prosperity is inseparable from his hard work.
If an official can do this, he can be regarded as a model for the world.
"Qi Aiqing, let's eat quickly. After dinner, I want to do some research on your fields in Qiongzhou to see how the people here work." After the emperor came to his senses, he ordered seriously.
Qi Yu was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly praised: "Your Majesty attaches so much importance to farming, almost as much as Emperor Shun in ancient times! I am here to thank God on behalf of the people of Qiongzhou."
This dragon's fart made the emperor look happy and smile from ear to ear.
Only Wu Wanrong felt nauseated and itched his teeth.
Everyone in the world said that he was a flattering minister who only knew how to flatter Ah Yu, but compared with Qi Yu, he still felt like he was a dwarf.
…
After the meal, the monarch and his ministers came to Longjian Road Mo in plain clothes.
It's summer time, the grass is luxuriant, and the crops are green.
Unlike inland people who farm, almost every farmer in Qiongzhou has a copy of "The Great Art of Qi Min" written by Mr. Qi himself, and they all refer to the technical guidance in this book for scientific planting, without exception.
What's even more incredible is that there are more cattle than dogs here, and they can be seen basically everywhere. Some people even feed several at the same time. This is almost impossible to see in the mainland.
Eye-opening!
"Your Majesty, agricultural production is the fundamental cornerstone of Jiangshan Sheji, and we should never take it lightly at any time. Wei Chen believes that the Ministry of Industry should take action as soon as possible to make preparations related to agricultural production." As soon as he stood still, Qi Yu immediately offered his advice.
What? Ministry of Industry?
Are you wrong? Agriculture and mulberry affairs have always been under the control of the Ministry of Household Affairs. What does the Ministry of Industry have to do with it?
This omission was immediately corrected by the emperor.
However, Qi Yu shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, I am not wrong!" After a pause, he pointed to the cement high-altitude channel not far away: "Food production is inseparable from water, but too much water or It is a general consensus that too little will cause disaster.”
"In other words, only by curbing the occurrence of droughts and floods can we get rid of the inextricable curse of relying on the sky for food. If we take this as a lesson, the construction of reservoirs and the extensive construction of irrigation canals have become top priorities, and these matters, The household department is not good at it, so it must be left to the work department to take care of it."
The emperor suddenly understood and said: "I really didn't expect that there is such knowledge hidden in the way of farming and mulberry."
This time, the Holy Emperor has indeed improved his posture, oh no, his knowledge.
Seeing His Majesty's approval, Qi Yu continued: "In addition to the fortifications mentioned above, we must also advocate scientific farming and increase the popularity of cattle farming. Only by doing this can we truly revitalize agriculture."
The emperor frowned, then shook his head and sighed. "I have just seen scientific planting, and it shouldn't be too difficult to implement. Only the popularization of cattle farming is weak!"
Not to mention the big farm cattle, even the little donkeys of the production team might be able to raise so much.
Donkey: Hurry up and bring me the first female...
Qi Yu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I think that Yuanma Temple, Taipu Temple and Xingtaipu Temple can be added to the cattle breeding business. Then a kind of cattle breeding will be formed, with the imperial model taking the lead and the people following the trend. This trend will definitely take off within a few years."
What? Let Yuan Masi and the others raise cattle instead?
this……
How decent are you?
Seeing the troubled look on the emperor's face, Qi Yu quickly remonstrated: "I once served in the Xingtaipu Temple and am very familiar with the situation there. Frankly speaking, official duties there are really easy. If we can add cattle raising business, it can just enrich them."
After a pause, he said again: "Your Majesty, do you still remember Zhao Mingyu's improvement of war horses? Just imagine, even declining war horses can be revived, let alone locally grown cattle?"
Um! Makes sense!
That’s it!
The emperor was about to discuss the issue of cattle in depth when he suddenly heard a sudden noise in the distance.
The guards who were secretly protecting him also hurriedly stepped out and assumed a highly vigilant protective posture.
