Otherworldly Castle Era

Chapter 9 New stage

Later, he listened to Li Bao about the specific situation of the surrounding ocean and the situation of sailor training.

There is also Li Bao’s proposal that there is a lack of professional supply ships, so he can only reduce a part of the ammunition in the warehouse to store supplies.

Therefore, the progress of exploring the surrounding waters is very slow, and each time I have to return to replenishment before we can continue to set off.

It’s a pity that the first batch of wood processed now will have to wait a while before we can make ships, and even so, we can only build some fishing boats and small boats. The requirements for wood for large sea-going ships are very strict, and no excellent wood has been found yet. Especially the keel.

It seems that we can only continue to study more advanced shipbuilding technology, or we can only let the system provide perfect shipbuilding skills and practical drawings.

Fortunately, there are three warships to provide reference, but in the case of not being able to dismantle and study, the results obtained are not much. When there is no way to build a qualified hull, we can only study the sail and layout.

Time just walked forward tenaciously and steadily.

Three more months have passed, and time has come to the harvest season of all things.

The rice paddies in the paddy field outside the East City have long been squeezed. The yellow-orange-orange ears of rice are full and full. Looking at it from a distance, my heart is full of joy, full of satisfaction, happiness, and security.

The harvest is always a joy. The first season of rice is about to be harvested. Three months have passed since the budding, planting and harvesting. Judging from the current acres, the yield per acre is very gratifying.

Yang Song heard Yang Zhong and Fang Qing’s report that the rice was about to be harvested, so he came to the rice fields in Chengdong to take a look.

“Lord, the first rice in Tianqi City is about to be harvested. Please also offer sacrifices to Tiandi Shennong, one is to unite people’s hearts, and the other is to be orthodox.” Yang Zhong stood in the middle of the government affairs hall and made serious suggestions.

“Subordinate reconsideration, Lord, this time the harvest is of extraordinary significance.” Nong Sang engaged in Fang Qing and continued.

Yang Song thought for a while, then said: “Okay, Yang Zhong, you go and prepare. In a few days, you will sacrifice to Tiandi and Shennong, and start harvesting rice.”

Yes, in this era, sacrifices are very sacred and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, not just superstition, but the crystallization of the simplicity, diligence and wisdom of the Chinese people.

The people of Huaxia are diligent in creating civilization, wealth, and future with their own hands, but in the end they are the most vulnerable!

The sense of ritual sacrifice can make the harvest of the hard-working Chinese people feel at ease, the anxiety that is full of obtaining the gain from the heaven and the earth, and the joy of harvest has a way to vent.

Since ancient times, China has always emphasized the harmony between human beings and nature, and there will be gains if you pay. This is not something that people of other nationalities can simply understand.

Looking at these issues with current thinking, many people do not understand the feelings of the people at that time. disturbed? nonexistent! In awe? what is that? grateful? Will not!

Because the current society is full of exchanges of interests, what I have given and what I can get, although it is correct, but the most simple and true feelings have faded!

Therefore, in ancient times, sacrifices were solemn and important. They were not the king of a country or the head of the family, and they had no power to hold them. It is closely linked to major events such as sending troops to fight, harvesting crops, and expanding territories.

Yang Song came to the outside of the East City early in the morning. At this moment, there is a sea of ​​people in the open space beside the rice field. There is a high platform next to the city wall in the open space. This is a temporary sacrificial platform.

On the highest part of the sacrificial platform is a long table. On the long table are three animals and an incense burner. Under the long table is a group of futons. Then there is a burning four-legged copper tripod. Long banners stand on the corners of the sacrificial platform.

Yang Song was wearing a dark robe, a ceremonial crown on his head, and cloud boots. He stood in a formal suit under the sacrificial stage. Next to him stood officials of various sizes. Except for the admiral Li Bao, who went out to explore the sea, everyone else came.

“Auspicious time is here, the sacrifice begins!” Following Yang Zhong, he shouted.

“Boom boom ”

There was a burst of gunfire, and after a burst of gongs and drums, the audience was silent!

Yang Song stepped firmly, step by step slowly and steadily onto the sacrificial platform.

“Wow to heaven and earth!” Yang Zhong shouted.

As Yang Song knelt on the tufted pouch, all officials and people, men and women, young and old, all knelt down. He got up after kowtow three times.

“Shangxiang!”

Yang Song took three long incense sticks, lit them in the copper cauldron and walked to the offering table. After making three times, he inserted the long incense sticks into the incense burner and retreated to the side. The chief officials behind him offered incense in turn.

“Please sacrifice words!”

Yang Song stood in the center of the sacrifice, facing the altar table, spread out the sacrifice words written on bamboo slips, and recited.

“The people of China in this different world, because of the blessings of heaven and earth, settled here, and they are diligent all day long. They will only get something. Today, they sacrifice to the heaven and the earth to repay the blessing of the heaven and the earth ”

The sacrificial words recorded where this place was, who was there, what they did, thank the heaven and earth for the blessing, the harvest and so on.

Yang Song finished reciting the sacrificial words, and put the bamboo slips into the copper cauldron to burn.

Then Yang Song said something to the people offstage, mainly to encourage and motivate officials and people.

Yang Song got a sacrificial platform, and then went to the newly built Shennong Temple not far away to worship the ancestor’s grace and blessing again!

At the end, with the sound of “End of ceremony!”, there was a burst of gunfire, and a burst of gongs and drums. After a burst of drums and gongs, there was a sensation in the audience.

Yang Song then came to the rice field, holding the harvesting sickle in his own hand, and started the first harvest, the harvest of the first bead of rice.

After he finished the ceremony, the farmers among the people watching the excitement went down to the fields to harvest and bundle, thresh the rice, and the division of labor was clear!

At this time, Yang Song stood by the rice field and looked at the busy people. Yang Zhong and Fang Qing said to the other side.

“Pay attention to the preservation of the rice, and then calculate the average yield per acre and the total harvest. After the busy schedule, we will hold a celebration, a harvest celebration! This will calm the people’s fears.”

“Yes, the lord, the lord is wise.” The two replied.

In fact, like the common people, Yang Song came to this strange world, strange place, and strange people and things. There was always a faint ray of fear and anxiety in his heart, but because of the oppression of survival, everyone did not show it. Coming out, taking advantage of this opportunity, Yang Song was ready to eliminate the factors that caused everyone’s inner restlessness. It’s the most convenient and efficient way to organize a celebration to let everyone live in harmony and happiness.

Congratulations to the host for successfully holding a harvest festival, and get rewards:

population one thousand

One great scientist

five scientific researchers

a research institute.

The moment the celebration ended, the system came with a wonderful reminder for Yang Song.

Now Apocalypse City and its surrounding territories are initially on the right track, and the system now rewards the key to one step further.

For Yang Song, this reward is very important to him. You must know that “Science is the first productive force”, Yang Song has a very profound experience.

The current Apocalypse City has no convenient things like electricity, internet, and cars, and even daily necessities are very primitive. If there were no workshops, Yang Song would still wipe his **** with branches.

With these scientific personnel and this research institute, science and technology can be developed. Presumably, with the development of science and industry, life will become more convenient and faster.

…

The next day, Yang Song found Yang Zhong, and then took the 1,000 people, and asked him to arrange these newcomers properly. With this 1,000, some projects that lack manpower can also be established.

For example: pasture, mining, smelting, cement, glass, chemicals, textiles, leather, soap, road construction, sewers… etc. Factory projects can be established.

“Uh, I think too much!” After returning to his senses, he wiped the non-existent saliva on his mouth. This is only a thousand people, and they can’t do so many things!

But it is conceivable that once all these factories are established, how tempting the wealth of Apocalypse City will be, and how abundant the materials are! Productivity can be improved again.

Then he came to the open space reserved in the northwest corner of the city to receive the application for the establishment of a large-scale comprehensive research institute. Then he received the six scientists and scientific researchers. After receiving it, he found that these were not ordinary people.

Shen Kuo—Integrated Scientist

Zhu Xi—Education

Qin Jiu Shao-Mathematics

Song Ci-Forensic Medicine

Li Jie-Construction

Chen Yang—Agriculture

Yang Zhongfu—Astronomical Calendar

It can be seen from a few famous people he is familiar with, these should be the people who have left their names in the history.

Shen Kuo is the great scientist who is systematically speaking, the character who wrote the scientific work “Mengxi Bi Tan”, who is proficient in astronomy, geography, physics, chemistry, mathematics, water conservancy, medicine, economics, military, art, literature, architecture and even divination. , Is simply an all-rounder.

is indeed a great scientist recognized by the system. Worthy of being known as “the most outstanding figure in the entire history of science in China”, “Mengxi Bi Tan” is also known as “a milestone in the history of Chinese science.”

Zhu Xi, a master of law, Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism, a Confucianist, thinker, philosopher, educator, and poet, was a famous figure who created “Confucianism”, but Yang Song did not agree with some of these ideas, but in terms of education Yang Song still values ​​it very much. In this era, these idealistic ideas are still very common. Yang Song does not disagree, but materialism is more in line with the development of science. Idealism still has many functions in sociology and moral philosophy. Yang Song is ready to start a hundred schools of thought on the academic aspect, and a hundred flowers will bloom. After all, there is a reason for existence!

Qin Jiushao, this person is not well-known in the last two, but Yang Song still knows this person. He is intensively researching astrology, phonology, arithmetic, poetry, bow and sword, construction, especially mathematics, and his book “Nine Chapters of Mathematics” 》, among them, Dayan Qiuyi (the solution to the problem of the first-order congruence equations, which is now called the Chinese remainder theorem), the triclinic quadrature and the Qin Jiushao algorithm (the numerical method for finding the positive roots of higher-order equations) are An important contribution of world significance, expressing an algorithm for solving the numerical solution of one-variable high-degree polynomial equations—positive and negative alchemy. Among them, the world mathematics masterpiece “Nine Chapters of Mathematics” has nine chapters and eighteen volumes, nine chapters and nine categories. The book is extremely rich in content, ranging from astronomy, astrology, calendar, and weather measurements to rivers, water conservancy, construction, and transportation. , A variety of geometric figures and volumes, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, the calculation and reciprocity of money valley, revenue, market, and teeth, is an epoch-making masterpiece.

Song Ci, the well-known Da Song Ti criminal officer, the best candidate for judicial prosecution, created “forensic appraisal”, so Song Ci is revered as the originator of forensic medicine in the world. Written into the book “Recovery of Injustices” (one of which is “Recovery of Injustices”), the world’s leading Chinese medicine is applied to criminal and prison inspections, and a comprehensive summary of the actual experience of criminal and prison inspections in the past dynasties since the pre-Qin Dynasty. Make it organized, systematized, and theoretical. The scientific spirit of “not listening to the truth but listening to the sky” runs through it, which was very rare at the time.

Li Jie, a famous architect in the Northern Song Dynasty. He presided over the construction of large-scale buildings such as Kaifeng Mansion, Taimiao and Qinci Empress Dowager Buddhist Temple, and compiled China’s first book “Building Methods” which elaborated on construction engineering practices. The compilation of “Building Method” is derived from the practice of ancient craftsmen. It is a long-standing practice passed down by craftsmen of the past generations. Therefore, the book reflects the level of Chinese civil construction engineering technology at that time.

Chen Yan, “Agriculture Book” compiled in detail summarizes the rich experience of farmers in southern my country in rice planting, silkworm, mulberry, and cattle production techniques, and pointed out that through reasonable fertilization and improvement of the soil, the soil can be “changed and strengthened.” Chen Fang’s “Nongshu” plays an important role in the improvement of the ancient agricultural technology system in my country, and has important guiding significance for actual production. In particular, his aggressive spirit and fully developed ideas are praised by the world.

Yang Zhongfu, “Tongtian Calendar”, set the year as 365.2425 days, which is only 26 seconds away from the return year. The accuracy is equivalent to that of the Gregorian calendar, and it is more than three hundred and eighty years earlier.

The brief introductions of these famous people Yang Song, except for two well-known people, was only known through systematic introductions. They were all figures who promoted history.
