Chapter 1079 Chapter [-] Intangible Objects

The afternoon sun shone into the yard, and the hen walked around the yard with a few chicks, clucking.Ning Yi stopped writing, looked at the scene of the hen passing by through the window, and was a little dazed. The chicken was raised by Xiaochan with the children at home, and there was also a dog named Jiujiu.Xiaochan, the child and the dog are not at home now.

Then Qin Shaoqian came over.

The one-eyed general held a few melon seeds in his hand and hummed a ditty, very unprincipled, just like when he was visiting kilns in Bianliang and other places more than ten years ago.After entering the study, he put down the last two melon seeds that came from nowhere on Ning Yi's desk, and then looked at the manuscript he was still writing: "Chairman, so busy."

"The time to deal with housework is squeezed out. After more than a dozen meetings, I missed a lot of writing, and now I have to pay off the debt. By the way, I asked Wei Wen to chase after Ning Ji."

"The little guy has no future. He was tricked by a woman into fighting with his brother. I don't think either of them should hold back. Whoever gets killed counts!" Qin Shaoqian went to the side and took tea leaves to make himself, and said in his mouth, "But you It's good to deal with it this way, he goes to catch up with Ning Ji, and the two of them talk about it, so that they won't hold grudges in the future, or Qin Weiwen will have a better future, and it would be good to follow Ning Ji into the world."

"Stop talking, because of this matter, I don't know how to enlighten his mother now."

"Who is his mother?"

"..."

Ning Yi looked at Qin Shaoqian, and saw the one-eyed dragon on the opposite side laughing while holding a teacup: "Speaking of which, you don't know, but you ran back a few days ago and were going to beat up the two boys. , a few women in your family... Good guy, just block me in front and say that I am not allowed to beat their sons. I didn't say that in your house, the second child is the most favored, you... that... you have Fang Admired." He gave a thumbs up.

"Second Qin, you are becoming more and more unscrupulous."

"To be serious, this matter has to be kept secret. I have issued a strict order on my side. Whoever spreads it will die. I don't worry about you. I'm afraid that the boss has no experience. You have to remind me. Throughout the ages, every emperor Family, the issue of heirs did not end well. You have changed your name now, but power is still power. If anyone wants to disturb your heart, the easiest way is to make your family restless first. To be honest, Wei Wen fell into In this matter, it is a test for him, for Xiao Ji, it depends on good fortune."

Ning Yi nodded, but didn't say much, then smiled and said: "How is your side? I heard that you have a good relationship with Lu Qiaoshan recently?"

"It's not bad, he is a capable person. I didn't expect that you held him in your hand for so long before you took it out."

"The first battle after coming out of Hedengsan County, fought all the way to Zizhou, and caught him in the middle. He was loyal to the Wu Dynasty and his bones were very hard, but in all fairness, he didn't have any serious bad deeds, so I didn't plan to kill him and let him go around. After taking a look around, he was sent to a factory to work for a year. When the Jurchen West Route Army entered Jianmen Pass, he asked someone to apply for a death squad in the army, but I refused. After retiring from the Jurchens, he Slowly accept us, and people will be able to use it.”

Ning Yi smiled and talked about it.

After the Southwest War ended, the Huaxia Army faced a sharp expansion of territory on the one hand, and a sharp decrease in its own troops on the other.Before the Chengdu Conference last year, several armies first reorganized the captive soldiers with all their strength, kept those who could be used, dismissed those who could not, and punished those with bad deeds. stage.

During this process, the basic territory of the Fifth Army remained on the line from the Chengdu Plain to the Jiange, and since the Southwest War ended in Hanzhong, the Huaxia Army had an additional territory directly leading to the Hanshui River from the Jiange to Hanzhong. A piece of trade is also a bridgehead for possible future conquests, and it is currently guarded by the Seventh Army.

In the Battle of Hanzhong, more than half of the Seventh Army was damaged. Later, except for the collection of some of Wang Zhainan's elite, it did not carry out large-scale expansion.It was not until this spring that more than [-] people after reorganization and training were led by Lu Qiaoshan and merged into the Seventh Army.

For these armies that were reorganized after surrendering, the Huaxia Army actually looked down upon them.After all, for a long time, the Huaxia Army has won more with less, and its record is outstanding. Especially the Seventh Army, after defeating Zong Han and Xi Yin's West Road Army with more than [-] people, it has faintly become the most powerful army in the world. They would rather accept strong-willed recruits who joined the army than to see the Han army of Wu Dynasty who had surrendered to the enemy.

However, when the 2000 people came, and after reorganizing and breaking up some activities, the generals of the Seventh Army discovered that the ones who were deployed might already be the most usable part of the surrendered army. Most of them had experienced battlefield Life and death, the original mistrust of people around him has been greatly improved after half a year of transformation, and although there is still room for adjustment, it is indeed infinitely easier to use than recruits.

On the other hand, as part of the external extension of the Huaxia Army, the site where the Seventh Army is currently located is mainly responsible for diplomacy, commerce, and logistics for the past two years.Although these specific affairs are not dominated by the army, there are still many areas that require the participation of the Seventh Army, and the style of the entire Seventh Army is too tough.Ning Yi communicated with Qin Shaoqian several times. After Lu Qiaoshan was sent there, Wu Chaoxiang, who seemed soft and had a clear purpose, was in charge of some tasks in the future, which reduced the complaints from the merchants a lot.

"... There are several considerations for sending Lu Qiaoshan there. Now it seems that the effect is good. You can read this manuscript." Ning Yi said, opened the drawer beside him, and handed Qin Shaoqian two pieces of paper.

Qin Shaoqian took a few glances at it, and one of them was a manuscript on establishing a second batch of nursing homes in various places for the wounded in the previous war, and at the same time increasing the treatment of soldiers.The other one is about clearing up military discipline. It seems to be a peaceful plan, but in fact it is a bloody plan inside and out.

"In what month is this going to be announced?"

"Wait another two months." Ning Yi said, "Since ancient times, the army has occupied the most foreign trade checkpoints. After defeating the Jurchen last year, we had a period of calm. The wounded soldiers were recuperating, and the army waited Reorganization, but then the temptation came. The Seventh Army did not react for a while, but it does not mean that they will never be able to react. The two violations you dealt with at the end of last year were simply robbery. Fortunately, no one was killed. But you Knowing those people under your command, in the future they will feel that they will pay more, and they will not be stingy in killing people."

Qin Shaoqian put the manuscript aside and nodded.

"So I sent the people from Luqiaoshan over there, as well as those reorganized... The soldiers are actually good soldiers, but some of them are leaders. They have seen the world before. Last year's reorganization may not be able to stabilize them. Now There is a good place, and they are ready to move... I know that in the Seventh Army, some people complained that these soldiers came over and took their oil and water. These oil and water are about to become guillotines. They are just for monkeys to see Chickens, without these chickens, we would have to kill the heroes who fought against Kim.”

"It's a good thing to do." Qin Shaoqian said, "We can't kill them all. From last year to this year, some of my own subordinates have had their own thoughts. Let's rectify together in two months."

"Well." Ning Yi nodded and smiled, "Today is mainly to discuss this matter with you. How to rectify the Seventh Army, you still have to do it yourself. In any case, in the future Huaxia Army, the army is only responsible for fighting and obeying commands. With regard to politics and business matters, you are not allowed to participate. This must be the highest principle. Whoever stretches out his hand will chop off his hand. But outside of war, the benefits of being aboveboard can be increased, and I want to make them live well by selling blood.”

"It's a pity that Lu Qiaoshan is responsible for this blame... But it can be seen that you really accept him." Qin Shaoqian smiled, and then said, "I heard that you may want to move Li Rulai here?"

"Lu Qiaoshan has the backbone and ability. Li Rulai is different." Ning Yi said, "Returning before the battle, he made some contributions, but not a big one. The most important thing is not to make people feel that killing and arson is right, Li Rulai... …The rumors outside are that I am beating them. We accept them. They have to show their worth. If they have no positive value, they should retreat smoothly. I will give them a good death. If they don’t realize this, I pulled them all out within two years."

"Aren't you afraid that people will say that we crossed the river and demolished the bridge?"

"The principle of the political system is to ensure that our ship can sail well. My brother's loyalty is for others to see. One day you and I will be useless, and we should be excluded... Of course, we should."

Qin Shaoqian smiled and said a different opinion: "It's also important to look good."

Ning Yi thought for a while, and nodded sincerely.He looked at the half-written manuscript on the table and sighed.

"Actually, recent incidents have annoyed me. The visible enemy has been defeated, and the invisible enemy has reached out. The army is one thing, but Chengdu is another matter now. After defeating last year After the Jurchens, a large number of people began to flow into the Southwest. By April of this year, there were more than 2 Confucian scholars who came here. Because they were allowed to let go of the discussion, they used their words on the news paper and reached some consensus, but honestly Said, in some places, we can't stand it anymore."

Speaking of this, Ning Yi sighed and laughed at the same time: "These people have been eating pens all their lives, and they write articles that are stable and balanced, citing scriptures, and talking about how the four people of the Huaxia Army have problems. Some aspects of the matter are really convincing, and some students on our side, sitting and discussing with them, feel that their arguments are deafening."

"Didn't you say it would be like this from the beginning?" Qin Shaoqian smiled.

"Various arguments will be fused in the battle of the debate, and a large number of acceptable plans to move forward will be found. I have thought about these, but when things happen, you still feel very annoying. We use drama, The vernacular and the news have united the lower class people, but the lower class people don’t know how to write articles. The students I teach in the crash course here are not perfect, and there are not many who are good enough to compete with those great Confucians. Only people like Yong Jinnian and Li Shishi can do it..."

Ning Yi tapped on the manuscript with his fingers, and said with a smile: "I can only end anonymously every day, and sometimes Yunzhu is also caught by me as a strong man, but to be honest, in this tug-of-war, we are not as good as we are on the battlefield. That's so powerful. Overall, we were at a disadvantage, and the reason why we didn't lose completely is because we defeated the Jurchens on the battlefield."

Qin Shaoqian frowned, and looked serious: "Actually, several teachers under my tent have this kind of thinking. They think it's inappropriate for Chengdu to let go of the newsprint and let everyone discuss politics, principles, and policies. Looking at the Throughout the dynasties, unification of ideas is one of the most important things. The blossoming of a hundred flowers looks wonderful, but in fact it will only bring chaos. As far as I know, because of the drills during the military parade last year, the law and order in Chengdu is good, but there are several places around In cities, gangs are bewitched to fight in private, and even some murder cases have this effect."

"Blooming a hundred flowers will bring chaos. This sentence is true, but to unify thinking, the most important thing is to unify what kind of thinking. After the establishment of the past dynasties, they used the existing ideas. These ideas are actually in chaos. It has been developed. At this point, I hope that our thinking will take a few more steps, and we can put it in the future, and it can be slower. Of course, it really feels like ants are pulling the wheel and going forward desperately. Qin Lao Er Don’t you come from Confucianism, you used to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, but now that my brother is in trouble, I’d like to help you write a few strokes.”

"It's a pity that my elder brother is not here, otherwise his pen is good." Qin Shaoqian felt a little regretful.

"If your father and elder brother are here, they are my worst enemies." Ning Yi shook his head and patted the newspaper on the table. He said that people are born unequal, you talk about social progress, he directly said that Wang Mang’s reform failed 1000 years ago, and that you are going too fast, and the arguments are complete... This article is really written by Lao Qin .”

Qin Shaoqian took the newspaper and read it.

"Sun Yuan... This is a uncle I met back then, he is over 70, and he came to Chengdu all the way?"

"Look, that's it..." Ning Yi shrugged and picked up the pen, "Old man, I want to write a mean article, and I will piss him off."

"These old people are very well-bred. Once people know that the rebuttal article was written by you, he will not be angry if you scold his ancestors for eighteen generations. He will only sit and discuss with you with great interest. After all, this is Mr. Ning Communicate directly with each other, speak out to honor the ancestors..."

"So I'm anonymous." Ning Yi smiled narrowly.

"It will be recognized..." Qin Shaoqian muttered.

"...If you can talk, talk more."

"No, since the general prevails, don't you use some private means? Just resist like this? In the past dynasties, especially when the country was founded, these people were killed."

"The continuity of the thinking system is a law that cannot be violated. If you kill it, you can forget it. I really want to throw away my ideas and let everyone accept the new ideas in a few decades, but ah..." He With a sigh, "As far as the reality is concerned, we can only go slowly, relying on the past thinking, first modify a part, and then change a part, until it is changed beyond recognition, but this process cannot be omitted..."

"But the past can kill..."

"Because the reforms of every person in power in the past, his so-called new ideas were all based on the old Confucian thinking."

"you……"

"Like Wang Mang, I was born knowing it. So the advanced ideas I have mastered can only be done in this way."

Ning Yi stood up, waved his hand, made a joke, and then added hot water to his teacup: "Fortunately, the debate pays attention to citing classics, but it is also based on actual results. In a few years, the achievements of Gewu will be great. The scale is extended, and we win a few more battles on the battlefield, and the disadvantages of the debate will naturally become advantages. This process will also be a process in which everyone is constantly being influenced. There is still hope. Now... man, Only die to support you."

What he said was optimistic. After pouring the hot water, he picked up the teacup and blew on the table. Before he finished speaking, the secretary came in from the outside and handed over an urgent report. Ning Yi glanced at it. His face turned dark, and he put down the teacup heavily.

"What's wrong?" Qin Shaoqian stood up.

"...to prepare the chariots and horses, to the Leshan Research Institute..." Ning Yi said, and handed the report to Qin Shaoqian.When the secretary went out from the study, Ning Yi waved his hand and slammed the teacup against the wall, splashing tiles.

"That's what I said..."

These days, due to family affairs and trivial situations in various aspects, Ning Yi's mood is actually not good. Qin Shaoqian said that Ning Yi would not understand the problems that Ning Ji would face when he went out. At this time, there was bad news again. , which made him explode in front of Qin Shaoqian.

"This is what I'm talking about... Just like Chengdu, I made a series of safety standards for their factories. They think it's too perfect, unnecessary, and they always cut corners! People die, and they even think it's okay. Accept, it’s a rare time of peace and prosperity, anyway, there are so many workers who want to come to the Southwest now, it’s impossible to use them all up! I set the rules and standards for them circuit courts one by one, and they also think it’s too trivial, one or two have to be hired Qingtian! Everyone above and below applauded!"

"It's good now... Leshan Research Institute, the strictest safety regulations! I did it! Not enough people died, so it's too strict. Now it's good, the prototype of the boiler was blown up, and Lin Jingwei fried it for me Seriously injured! This is what I said, the ants are dragging the wheels forward, you give them good things, no one knows, all safety regulations, all laws and regulations must be written in blood! It is impossible to let them bleed a little -"

"Okay, okay, why are you so angry?" Qin Shaoqian came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Isn't the problem determined yet?"

"Probably, definitely, how many such things have happened recently!" Ning Yi packed up his things, packed up the half-written manuscript paper, and remembered when he was about to go out, "I was going to comfort Xiaochan, these things..."

"Then don't go to Leshan for now, and find someone else to take responsibility."

Ning Yi thought for a while: "... Let's go. Wait until you come back. By the way, are you planning to go back today?"

"Yeah." The two walked out together, Qin Shaoqian nodded, "I'm planning to go to the No. [-] military industry. The new rifles have been drawn, and a batch of guns has been released. I'll go and have a look."

"This batch of rifling is okay, relatively stable. We are going in a different direction, see you in the future."

"Walk with you for a while, lest you be reluctant to part."

"I'm not attached to you either."

The carriage and guards were ready quickly. Ning Yi and Qin Shaoqian left the yard. It was about three o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone who was supposed to go to work was at work, and the children were at school.Tan'er and Hongti hurried back from the outside, and Ning Yi told them the whole situation: "... Where's Xiao Chan?"

"Take people to buy things in the market. Do you want to call her back?"

"..." Ning Yi was silent for a moment, "Forget it, come back and coax her."

"Boys will go outside when they reach their age. Although parents are worried, they won't be unable to make it through." Tan'er laughed, "There's no need to coax them."

"...I still want it... Forget it, we'll talk about it when I come back."

He got into the carriage and said goodbye to everyone.

The horse team started to move forward. He probably finished writing the entire manuscript in the bumpy environment of the car. When he came to his head, he felt that what happened in Leshan Research Institute should be more than a simple problem of not following safety regulations.The operating procedures of a large number of factories in Chengdu can already be quantified, so a complete set of procedures can be determined.But research work is always a new field. In many cases, the norms cannot be determined, and excessive dogma will hinder innovation.

After defeating the Jurchens last year, Southwest has the qualifications to conduct a large number of business exchanges with the outside world. In terms of research, everyone also said optimistically: "Finally, we can start to launch some big guys." But until now, the No. [-] steam prototype was unexpectedly When the explosion happened, Lin Jingwei was seriously injured, which is really depressing—a group of guys who are very happy.

He thought of his son who ran away from home today, where is Ning Ji now... Has Qin Weiwen caught up with him?What will they say?Will the second child be deceived by his letter and simply come back home and never go out again?Rationally speaking, this is not good, but emotionally, he also hopes that Ning Ji will not go out.It's a feeling I've never felt in my life...

Thinking of Ning Ji, I couldn't help but think of Xiao Chan, I should have comforted her more in the morning.In fact, I couldn’t find words to comfort her, and I didn’t know what to say, so I used the work that had accumulated for several days to push things back. I originally wanted to push things to the evening, and used words and actions such as: "We have another one." Let her not be so sad, who knows that Leshan has happened again.

In a bigger place, those invisible enemies bothered him even more.In my previous life, I started a company and only pursued economic benefits. In this life, I just wanted to fight wars and kill the enemy.Up to now, the enemy has become an invisible thing, he can kill the tangible spokesperson, but the new thinking thrown out is not really understood by people, any so-called truth is just dogmatism, and the biggest effect is only to make people feel It is only used to kill people in political struggles.

The implementation of thinking requires refutation and debate. Thinking is fused into a new thinking in the debate, but no one can guarantee what that new thinking will look like. Even if he can kill everyone, he can't control this matter. thing.

The carriage drove all the way in the direction of Leshan, and he gradually fell asleep amidst the bumps.After arriving at the destination, he still has a lot of things to do...
