Huang Junming closed the page of the book in his hand hard, shocking Li Chunfeng who was watching him. Huang Junming pinched the book in his hand, not knowing what to say to Li Chunfeng. With this first book alone, Li Chunfeng can definitely be regarded as the father of modern geography in the Tang Dynasty. Although it is in the name of astrology, this knowledge is too advanced, the conclusions are well-founded, and the conjectures are It's reasonable.
Huang Junming believes that if this first volume is released, it will shock the entire Tang Dynasty. I'm afraid it didn't have the slightest impact on the thinking of people in the Tang Dynasty. After all, it is a concept that has been carried out by everyone for thousands of years. It is definitely not easy to deal with when it is overturned all of a sudden. And this kind of rebuttal cannot be refuted. The remarks with such ironclad evidence will make everyone not know how to deal with it. right.
"Immortal" When Li Chunfeng saw Huang Junming closing the book suddenly, he thought that his conclusion was deviated, which made Huang Junming, an immortal with "powerful astrology", unable to stand it. He called Huang Junming anxiously.
Huang Junming saw that Li Chunfeng did not live up to his proud expression just now, but looked cautious. He couldn't help laughing to himself, and while putting the book in his hand back to its original place, he pretended to be serious and said: "Chunfeng, do you know what everyone will think of you as soon as your book is published? What if you are the one in the far west? Religious country, you! Li Chunfeng! will be tied to the stake and burned alive!"
Li Chunfeng was horrified when he heard this. His expression became a little unnatural, and he was tied to the stake and burned alive. This is unreasonable in Li Chunfeng's mind! After all, the most similar punishment in Yanhuang Land, "Pao Bao", was only implemented for a few years, and then this cruel punishment was never seen again. And I wrote these things myself. To be tied to the stake and burned to death, Li Chunfeng felt both unwilling and disappointed.
Since Huang Junming, an immortal master, said that he would be burned to death in the far west, then in the Tang Dynasty, he would probably be beheaded, right? Li Chunfeng was thinking in his heart, but he didn't understand why.
Huang Junming looked at Li Chunfeng's ever-changing expression and said again: "But. Chunfeng! You are now in the Tang Dynasty! Once your book is made public, it will definitely shock the hearts of all the people of the Tang Dynasty! And you are the one who will lead the great Tang Dynasty!" The world. The first person to be brought into people¡¯s eyes in such a huge world and huge starry sky. He will surely be famous throughout the ages and be famous for generations to come!¡±
Although ancient Chinese society was dominated by monarchs. But in terms of ideas, culture and understanding of society, they are not independent, unlike those in the West who believe in God. If you propose a heliocentric theory, you will be burned alive. The reason is blasphemy. . . Huang Junming felt ridiculous when he thought about it. Since ancient times, the word blasphemy has never appeared in Chinese history or mythology in terms of cultural or ideological cognition.
For Li Chunfeng, he experienced what it meant to go to hell and then go to heaven. Li Chunfeng was lying when he said he was afraid of death. He always felt that his research results were more valuable than life and death. I originally thought that these words of mine would be sealed or destroyed, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a different story. According to Huang Junming, he will be famous throughout the ages and his name will go down in history because of these words. This kind of joy is not just talk. Few people escape the trap of fame and fortune, and so does Li Chunfeng. However, he is more concerned about the fact that his works and thoughts can be passed down to future generations. Like Laozi and Confucius. Have a great impact on future generations.
"Immortal" Li Chunfeng was about to say something. But when he heard footsteps coming from behind him, he abruptly stopped what he wanted to say. He turned and looked behind him.
I saw the Taoist monk holding a fire-lacquered letter in his hand, running straight towards Huang Junming.
Huang Junming waved to the Taoist monk and took the fire lacquer letter in his hand. Then he signaled the monk and Taoist to step back, and he opened the fire-lacquered letter. At this time, Li Chunfeng also followed the Taoist monk and retreated. The immortal master read the letter and wanted to avoid suspicion no matter what he said. No matter how much I want to say, I still have to wait for a while.
There isn¡¯t much in the letter. What it boils down to is that the Tang Dynasty had a bumper harvest last year and the national treasury was rich in food. The country wanted to build granaries in various states and counties to prepare for disasters.
These were all copied from the official newspaper, Huang Junming could tell at a glance. It's just that there is another line of words attached below this excerpt of the Di newspaper. The grain stored in charity warehouses in various places is less than half. In Henan Province and Hebei Province, there are no grains of rice in the warehouses.
Huang Junming frowned when he saw this. Huang Junming knew how big the granary of the prefecture and county was. The charity warehouses in various states and counties are not even half full now. Of course, it is not because officials have withheld money. Obviously the country does not have enough food to fill the charity warehouse. In Huang Junming's view, he took the lead in changing the people's farm tools and farming methods. The production of food should be greatly increased, but why is the granary not full? Could it be that there was an oversight in some link?
And this riverWhat's going on in Hebei Province and Hebei Province? There's not even a grain of grain in the warehouses in the two roads? You must know that there are only ten Dao in the entire Tang Dynasty, and the granaries of two of the ten Dao are empty. What will happen if there is a big disaster in a few months?
The more Huang Junming thought about it, the more puzzled he became. The coming of the locust plague was inevitable, and history books would not lie on this point. Whenever there is a major disaster, government relief is the most important thing. If the government has no food, even if other people provide relief, it will be a drop in the bucket and will not help. It might also drag down the families of those who rescue refugees. Huang Junming has heard stories like this often.
When a major disaster comes, the government is unable to help the victims, so local wealthy households open warehouses to help the people. In the end, the rich households do not have much food, but the hungry people do not understand, and instead think that the wealthy households are just pretending to provide disaster relief to gain fame. , and even some of them came to grab food in anger. In the end, the rich households became poor farmers. This kind of story is not uncommon in disaster years.
Now, there is an obvious shortage of grain reserves for disaster relief in the national charity warehouse, and there are two "empty warehouses". Huang Junming is really uneasy about the catastrophe that is just around the corner. As early as last year, Huang Junming issued a statement in the name of Taoism as a whole, claiming that when encountering disaster years, Taoism will spare no effort to provide disaster relief. At that time, Huang Junming did not expect that the current situation would be like this.
In his eyes, as long as farmers have more food, the country will also have more food. When a disaster strikes, most of the victims will definitely receive relief from the state, but he and Taoism only need to provide some food and the victims with a little help. Just help them in unequal places. Judging from the current situation, Taoism, which has already spoken out, is likely to be the first to be on the front line of disaster relief, like the entire government.
It¡¯s not that Huang Junming is reluctant to part with the food, but that there is really not much food reserved for disaster relief in Taoism. After all, no ruler would be happy to have a large amount of food in the hands of an organization that he cannot 100% control. In addition, people all know that this year will be a year of disaster. In order to ensure their survival in the year of disaster, they rarely plan to sell their surplus food. There is little food on the market, and Taoists do not have their own land. (It was originally there, but it was returned to the people when welfare benefits were introduced.) Even if the government ignores it, it will not be able to collect food.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡ Although the number of words in this fire-paint letter was small, it really gave Huang Junming a headache. Without food, if a major disaster is not handled well, it will have little impact on the reputation of Taoism. If someone dies of starvation, it will be unacceptable to Huang Junming.
"Monk, come here!" Huang Junming shouted to the door. He knew that the monk and Taoist priest must be guarding the door.
"Immortal." The Taoist monk saluted Huang Junming and stood aside respectfully.
"Monk, go find Yanlin now and ask him to find someone to find out why the charity warehouses in Henan and Hebei roads are empty. Remember, don't let the believers know about this." Huang Junming said to the monk. Looking at the figure of the Taoist monk pushing the door open, Huang Junming murmured to himself, Li Shimin ordered all the prefectures and counties to establish charity warehouses, wasn't this an act to appease the people? Before the warehouse was opened, everyone thought the granary was full of grain. For this catastrophe that had been known for a long time, he was naturally confident and would not cause any riots. At that time, it is best to transport food from the lightly affected areas or from unattended areas to the severely affected areas in a timely manner. to resolve this disaster.
But if you¡¯re not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. What if the entire Tang Dynasty is hit by a disaster? Is the road for transporting grain blocked? The people waited hard for food relief, and angrily opened the charity warehouse, but found not a few grains of food. I'm afraid it will be a bloody scene again.
Ge Yanlin worked very quickly. It had not been more than half an hour since Huang Junming asked the monk to deliver the message. Ge Yanlin came over in a hurry. After saluting, he said to Huang Junming: "Master, I have found out what you asked me to investigate."
"Oh?" Huang Junming was a little surprised at Ge Yanlin's speed: "Tell me about it."
"Master, it's like this. Henan Province and Hebei Province were hit by frost last year. If it hadn't been for the use of new farm tools and new farming methods, the people in these two provinces would have fled again. It's precisely because of this. , the grain produced last year was barely enough for the people's living needs, and the government would definitely not be able to receive enough agricultural taxes. In this way, if the grain needed by the government is discarded, there will probably not be much left over from the agricultural taxes. Yicang It's natural to be empty." Ge Yanlin finished the reason simply and waited quietly for Huang Junming to speak When everyone read this chapter, Nannan was having a drink with friends at the wine table. . . It's the end of the year, and everyone often travels between wine tables, right? Drinking is very harmful to the body, so everyone should pay more attention to their health. ! ~!
