Chapter 72 You guys connected pretty well
The Ministry of Justice Prison.
Li Ye survived the disaster and burst into tears of excitement. It didn't matter to him whether he became an official or not, as long as he could keep his life. He wanted to stay away from Bianliang and become a rich man who lived a life of drunkenness and dreams.
The jailer opened the cell door, and an official from the Ministry of Justice came over to process Li Ye's formalities: "Li Ye, the Jin army has retreated, and His Majesty has granted amnesty. You may be released. Please sign here."
"Okay, okay!" With an excited heart and trembling hands, Li Ye signed the paper without hesitation. He didn't want to stay in this damn place for another day.
After the signing was completed, the officers took Li Ye out of the Ministry of Justice prison.
Bathed in the long-lost sunshine and looking at the Bianliang City where cheers of victory were heard everywhere, Li Ye felt that he was finally alive.
At this moment, Li Ye heard a friendly greeting: "Excuse me, are you Li Ye?"
Li Ye looked up at the eunuch, who was also wearing eunuch clothes and whose face was indeed unfamiliar, and asked, "I am Li Ye. Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Your Majesty has issued a decree: Li Ye, a Song official, has been possessing the souls of the Jin, disrupting the morale of the Song soldiers. He should be executed according to the law."
After a pause, the father-in-law changed his tone to a relaxed one: "Your ability is not great, but you are lucky enough to catch up with the amnesty. I will spare your life. However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. Go to Qiongzhou to develop it."
"Qiongshan County Magistrate Fang Xing submitted a memorial stating that the environment in Qiongzhou is particularly suitable for growing sugarcane, and that they have mastered the technology for extracting sugar from sugarcane. However, there are too few people to cultivate it on a large scale. He hopes that the court will banish the descendants of criminal officials there."
Qiongzhou?
At this time in the Song Dynasty, exile to Qiongzhou was the second most severe punishment after the execution of the entire family. Li Ye looked at the eunuch in front of him, then at the Ministry of Justice prison behind him, and couldn't help but doubt himself, you two have made a good connection.
"Sign it, Li Ye."
"Are you sure I'm Li Ye? Not Li Qingquan or Chen Qingye or anything like that."
Disobeying the imperial order will result in death. Going to Qiongzhou is better than being beheaded. Besides, there are sugarcane and lychees.
Yes, and lychees.
Su Shi and Su Dapang both said that if you eat 300 lychees a day, you might as well live in Lingnan forever.
“Woo woo woo!”
Thinking about it, Li Ye couldn't help crying: "Life is too difficult, I want to go home, I want to find my mother."
Author's Note: This is a small interactive experience. As the Magistrate of Qiongshan County, Fang Xing is the protagonist of his secondary account. Unlike his primary account, this secondary account uses a cheat. If you want a seafood feast, summon Gao Qiqiang. Basic Skill: The bigger the wind and waves, the more fish you catch. If an official from Bianliang wants to abuse his power, summon Zhao Ruilong. Basic Skill: Qiongzhou has no place for such a powerful individual. If a petty thief disrupts order in Qiongshan County, summon Qi Tongwei. Basic Skill: All the dogs in our village are police dogs... Anyway, summon whoever you need.
What about the socially gifted Su Dazhuang? What about Su Shi, who didn't want to be an official and instead devoted himself to eating, drinking, and having fun? Fishing, sea diving, surfing, oysters, salmon, hairy crabs... Brother, stop being an official and come to Qiongzhou, a paradise on earth.
I will publish a special chapter in a few days, and write about the story of Li Ye planting sugarcane.
In the Bianjing Palace, Zhao Huan was busy trying to round up Fang Xing's numbers. The candy was sweet, and Zhu Lian and Zhao Xi loved it.
Sugarcane is really a good thing, we should send more people there. Scholars are good, scholars think highly of themselves, and the sugarcane grown by scholars must be tastier than that grown by military commanders.
Ha ha ha ha
In his hand, Zhao Huan held a piece of chalk about an inch long, and behind him was a large blackboard. Zhao Huan had spent a day working with the craftsmen to create this thing.
The principle is very simple and even primary school students can make it by DIY.
The chemical reaction formulas are:
Raw gypsum is heated to become mature gypsum:
CaSO4·2H2O=CaSO4·0.5H2O+1.5H2O
Plaster of Paris is cooled by adding water to become raw gypsum:
CaSO4·0.5H2O+1.5H2O=CaSO4·2H2O
I said it was very simple, right?
It's so simple, I can't understand it at all.
In front of Zhao Huan sat five rows of thirty college students, all of whom were experts in the Ministry of Revenue and Finance, or abacus experts.
The only one who was out of tune with the others was Imperial Physician Sun. There was no other way, Imperial Physician Sun was simply too knowledgeable, and there was nothing he didn't want to learn.
"I asked you to come here today because I have an important mission for you. During the time we were guarding Bianliang City, there was a continuous heavy snowfall. I don't know what happened, but the government offices in Bianliang City were unusually dry. It was always a fire in one warehouse or another. Hey, isn't this a coincidence?"
No one spoke. The calculating people below all had red faces. They wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, for fear of losing their composure in front of the emperor.
"Don't hold it back, laugh if you want to." Zhao Huan spread his hands and said, "Don't be so serious. You are all my students. I am very tolerant of my students. Don't be so stern."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
They are all experts. As soon as Your Majesty says something, they know what is going on. They will take advantage of the time when defending the city and the transition between the old and new regimes to do things that harm the public interest or make up for the deficits of previous years.
"It's good that you're laughing. It seems you know what's going on. Doctor Ma from the Ministry of Justice is also a master of his craft. Not only did he turn a blind eye, he also sent the entire list to me. I'd feel embarrassed if I didn't take action. Do you understand?"
“I understand!”
"Auditing the accounts, that is, auditing the accounts. I am so tired of waiting for people to make mistakes that my mind is twisted. Large tracts of sugarcane fields are left to waste. It's a sin."
"However, before I check the accounts, I need to give you some lessons. You're good at abacus, but your accounting is a bit lacking."
As soon as Zhao Huan said this, he immediately aroused public anger.
However, I dare not speak out.
I was naturally DISSING him in my heart. No one could be any good at accounting, as my family has been doing this for generations.
"I know you're not convinced, I'll ask you again later."
Zhao Huan took a piece of chalk and wrote ten numbers on the blackboard.
"Before checking the accounts, learn this number system. It's called Arabic numerals and was introduced from a powerful country on the west side of the Silk Road."
"Compare this thing to our 0123456789. Which one is easier to write? Try to tell me which is harder."
"Try to familiarize yourself with it first. Once you can express it with Arabic numerals proficiently, we can move on to the next item."
So, in the Bian Jing Palace, a large group of older elementary school students were happily learning the ten numbers.
There are also advantages to having older primary school students, as there is no need to teach them any shameful familiar songs.
One is like a pencil that is thin and long, two is like a duck floating on the water, three is like an ear that hears sounds, and so on...
After mastering it, Zhao Huan drew a big T-shape on the blackboard. This is called a T-back.
Ugh, Ugh.
This is called a T-account.
One person holds up the sky, and the time traveler can do everything...
