Chapter 671: Yang Tong Kong Sheng smiled and arched his hand: "Kong is here to admire, and please don't thank you behind closed doors."
If Mr. is in trouble again, even if he can talk to Mr. through the fence, Kong will be worth the trip. ” The man took a deep breath, hesitated, but still opened the fence door, and said with his hands: "The king of the county, please come in" Kong Sheng entered the fence door with a smile, and sat on the ground regardless of whether the ground was clean or not.
The man's deep gaze swept over Kong Sheng's elegant and upright back, and then he sat opposite Kong Sheng, hugged his fists and said: "The mountain people's humble house is simple, and there is nothing to entertain, the county king forgive me."
Wu Xian stood outside the fence gate, his face very ugly.
He secretly muttered in his heart: You bastard, you don't have good wine, strong tea, you should have a cup of white water, you don't have a gorgeous living room, you should have a paving for hospitality, you dare to let the king of the court sit on the ground, it's really crazy "Sir is polite, it is already a great honor for Kong to sit opposite Mr."
Kong Sheng smiled lightly.
A glimmer of light flashed in the depths of the man's eyes, but his face was still indifferent as usual: "The mountain people have lived in the mountains for a long time, they are rude and despicable, and they don't know etiquette, so they don't hide that the king of the county came to the mountain people, I'm afraid he didn't come to talk about the mountains and fields with the mountain people in the open air."
Kong Sheng hugged his fists in salute, nodded and said, "That's right, Kong is here just to ask Mr. to come out of the mountain to help me." ” The man's face changed suddenly, and he said coldly: "The mountain people are vulgar, they have lived in the mountains for many years, and they are incompetent and have no intention of going out of the mountains. ” Kong Sheng smiled: "As far as Kong knows, Mr. is by no means a hermit who retreats to the mountains and forests, but a sage who has a heart to help the world.
In the twenty-fourth year of Kaiyuan, Mr. entered Beijing to take the examination, but he did not rank.
In the twenty-fifth year of Kaiyuan, he entered Beijing again to take the exam, but he was not ranked.
After that, Mr.
Tianbao was in Tianbao for three years and ten years, and went to Beijing twice to ask for help from the powerful people in the capital, but to no avail.
Disheartened, he returned to Jiangning and retreated to the mountains. ” The man sneered: "The court is dark, and the magnates control the scientific examination, blocking the entrance of the poor scholars.
Those who enter the court as officials, either the children of the family, or the heirs of the powerful, the mountain people have made several scientific expeditions, and there is no door, so they have extinguished the heart of progress and the ambition to serve the country, and they are willing to retire to the mountain springs, only to seek the end of their lives, and do not ask anything else. ” "Sir, Kong knows very well: in the court, the wealthy families occupy the doorway, blocking the way of the poor door; In the opposition, the local tyrants and gentry annexed land and encroached on the private land of farmers, and the people were struggling to make a living.
Therefore, Kong set up a department to eradicate land malpractice in Jiangnan to deal with the encroachment of the people's land, step by step, and return the land to the people. ” The corner of the man's mouth twitched: "The king of the county is just wishful thinking."
This local tyrant and inferior gentry have been annexing land for a long time, and it is deeply rooted, and this official and gentry collude with each other, and their interests are shared. ” "Even if it's more difficult than climbing to the sky, no matter how difficult it is for Kong to build a ladder to the sky, someone has to do it, please wait and see" Kong Sheng clenched his fists.
The mountain people knew what the county king was doing at this moment, and the mountain people admired the county king's courage.
But most of the land in the south of the Yangtze River is concentrated in the hands of the Yixing Zhou family, the Wuxing Shen family, as well as the Jiangning Yang family and the Song family, which are the wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River, how easy it is to move these families, the friendship between the Yang family and the county king and Weng son-in-law is not to mention, it is the Song family, presumably the county king can't move, then the Song family's son Song An is the one who is in trouble, I heard that he has insulted the county king in person, isn't it also released and returned home" The man chuckled: "Of course, how the county king does it, that is the county king's business, and it has nothing to do with the mountain people."
The mountain people are shallow and abandoned for many years, and they don't understand affairs, and they can't help the county king, so please ask the county king to ask Gao Ming."
The disdain in the man's eyes was barely disguised.
In fact, the man was very dissatisfied with the so-called elimination of land maladministration that Kong Sheng was doing now.
He didn't think that Kong Sheng was doing something wrong, but that Kong Sheng was just a child, it was difficult to do it for a long time, and it was doomed.
In the man's opinion, as long as Kong Sheng can't move the Yang family and the Song family, this game of land reform is destined to be a child's play, nothing more.
Not to mention that Yang Qi has deep roots in Jiangnan and has held power for more than ten years, even Song Ning, who is actually a low-grade Jiangnan Yancao transfer envoy, Kong Sheng can't move.
Not to mention the two giants of Yixing Zhou and Wuxing Shen.
Kong Sheng smiled: "Please wait and see, sir."
What Kong wants to do is not selfish.
Just like the poem of Du Gongbu: There are tens of millions of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy.
Kong just hopes to do his best to let the people of Jiangnan have a house to live in, clothes to wear, and a field to plant, and truly live and work in peace and contentment. ” "Involving the wealthy families in Jiangnan, in Kong's view, everyone is equal before the law, and the so-called prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, no matter who it is, as long as he violates the law, Kong will never tolerate adultery.
As for what Mr. said about Song An, before Kong came, he had already ordered Shenlongwei to prepare to close the case and arrest the murderer. ” "The prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people, haha, such foolish words, Jiangnan naughty boys still don't think so, does the king of the county still want to tease the mountain people with this" The man looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, and his form was dissolute and manic.
Wu Xian couldn't hold back any longer, and scolded angrily on the side: "Yang Tong, you are so bold, you dare to be rude to the king of the county."
Yang Tong glanced at Wu Xian contemptuously, and said coldly: "The mountain people are outspoken, and they can't be rude to the county king.
All in all, the mountain people are vulgar, willing to be in the mountains and wilderness, and don't ask about the world, please go back to the county king."
Kong Sheng smiled: "Sir, don't chase away guests."
Kong came here and invited Mr. to go out of the mountain to help me do things, not for the land.
Instead, take my parcel."
Wu Xian stomped his feet, turned around with an unkind face and took what Kong Sheng had brought from the saddle, kicked open the fence door, walked in, and placed it on the grass between the two, and then opened the package, revealing a square wooden box inside.
Kong Sheng opened the wooden box with a smile, revealing a dense array of models carved with reverse characters in rows and rows.
Yang Tong looked at the past, and his face suddenly changed, and his gaze froze.
He walked over with trembling hands, pinched the two movable type motifs, his expression changed uncertainly, and the corners of his mouth twitched obviously.
"Sir, do you know why Kong made this thing," Kong Sheng said lightly.
Yang Tong slowly looked up at Kong Sheng, the shock on his face could not be concealed, and he said in a trembling voice: "If the mountain people are not mistaken, this should be a mold for printing, which is similar to the carved wooden board in the temple where the scriptures are printed, but it is even more incredible."
Printing was not uncommon in the Tang Dynasty, and how could a scholar like Yang Tong not know it.
The worker saws the wood into a piece of plank, writes the words to be printed on thin paper, sticks them on the board, and then carves them into yang script with a knife according to the strokes of each word, so that the strokes of each word protrude on the board.
Once the board is carved, the book can be printed.

"Sir, Kong uses clay to make words, each word is a seal, and it is hard to burn with fire.
When typesetting, prepare an iron plate, relax incense, wax, paper ash and other things on the iron plate, and there is an iron frame around the iron plate, and the words to be printed are placed in the iron frame, and it is a version when it is full.
It is then baked over a fire, the mixture is melted, it is combined with the movable type block, and the movable type is pressed with a flat plate while it is hot to make the literal surface flat.
Printing is ready to take place.
In this way, there is no difference between printing two or three copies and engraving, and if the number of prints is too large, printing dozens or even thousands of copies, the efficiency is very high."
Kong Sheng talked eloquently: "Kong called this movable type printing.
Movable type plate making avoids the lack of engraving, as long as enough single movable type is prepared in advance, it can be imposed at any time, which greatly speeds up the plate making time.
After the movable type plate is printed, it can be disassembled, the movable type can be reused, and the movable type occupies less space than the engraving plate, and it is easy to store and keep, so that the superiority of movable type is expressed" This movable type printing Kong Sheng has long been made and applied to the printing of Kong's bookstore, but as a high commercial secret of Kong's trading group, it has not been spread to the outside world.
As Kong Sheng spoke, Yang Tong's expression gradually calmed down.
But because the movable type plate making was in front of him, Yang Tong's mind was greatly impacted, and many of Kong Sheng's previous contempt were swept away in an instant.
At least in Yang Tong's view, Kong Sheng's invention of movable type printing is definitely a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people.
"The movable type printing technique of the king of the county opened the eyes of the mountain people and admired them to the fullest.
It's just that the mountain people are not the workshop owners, and this kind of printing is so precious that it is useless to send it to the mountain people, and I ask the county king to take it back," Yang Tong said solemnly.
"May I ask sir, why is it that most of the officials in the court are children of the family and there is a lack of scholars, is it really just the reason why the family controls the scientific examination and the road to advancement?"
Kong Sheng said with a smile, and did not put away the movable type engraving.
"The reason why the family occupies the court, in addition to the smooth way to advancement, an important factor is the monopoly of cultural resources by the wealthy family.
To put it bluntly, the family weakened the power of the poor by controlling reading, so as to achieve the goal of controlling the people in the world.
Kong Sheng said lightly: "The poor people have no money to study, and reading is a luxury.
And even if the children of the poor family do their best to study and study, they lack the opportunity to advance because the family occupies the court. ” "So," Kong Sheng smiled and said nothing.
Yang Tong's expression changed, and he suddenly said in a trembling voice: "What does the king of the county mean?"
Yang Tong guessed Kong Sheng's intentions, but he couldn't tell it, or he didn't dare to say it, because it was a big taboo.
"Movable type printing improves printing efficiency and reduces printing costs, a large number of cheap books come out, the poor and the poor have the opportunity to study, knowledge is no longer the unique identity of the children of the family, if the world rises in time, the decline of the family is not just around the corner" Kong Sheng slowly got up: "Mr. thinks what Kong said, is there any reason?"
"Kong wants to set up a civilian school in Jiangnan, with a poor scholar as a teacher, and anyone who is interested in studying can be enrolled.
Tuition fees are borne by Benwang.
In the future, if the time is ripe, this king will set up civilian schools in various prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River to recruit children from poor families to enroll."
Yang Tong's face turned red, and his expression became extremely excited, what a kind of open-minded person he was, he naturally understood that Kong Sheng did this or that once Kong Sheng did this, the rise of the Hanmen would really see hope.
The promotion and dissemination of this culture is an indescribable great merit, which makes Yang Tong see some hope. oshow7 t1706231537:
