Chapter 469: Yun Huachun's Diary

Yun Huachun also came to court today, specifically to answer the questions of these ministers.

"People have sidewalks, and cars have their own roadways. Railway tracks are made of wood and iron to pave a road exclusive for cars. Everyone knows that this iron car runs extremely fast! Only by walking on the track can you maintain the direction. Railway tracks

These two words represent its meaning."

To put it bluntly, it is just a driveway built of iron and wood.

"Your Majesty, this move is too wasteful of people and money!" Immediately, an adult stood up to object.

"Your Majesty, I disagree! This move will benefit the country and the people, and its merits will last forever!" Yun Huachun immediately sang the opposite tune.

"My lords, why don't you let Mr. Yun tell you what the use of this thing is!" Yun Huachun stood up and said.

After the railway track is built, it may only take half a day to go from the capital to the far east.

Yun Huachun calculated that it was less than two hundred kilometers from the capital to the east coast. Yuntao was farther away, and it would take several days to walk down there.

It only takes more than an hour by train to transfer to them.

The steam engine is running day and night, and with the cargo behind it, Yunhuachun is only a dozen kilometers away in an hour, so it’s time to arrive!

What are you doing at the beach?

Let’s go south by boat!

Taking the rail is too time-consuming, so it is more convenient to take a boat.

Steam engines can be installed on cars and ships to make the ship faster!

With a steam-powered ship, whether you are going north or south, you don’t have to worry about the season or fear of monsoon currents or anything like that!

Therefore, as long as the railway is completed, taking a boat from the capital to the south may not even take four days! Yun Huachun said this slowly, and he did not dare to say it was too fast.

Whether transporting people or cargo, it is extremely convenient.

Now that iron cars can carry people, the demand for cattle and horses is reduced. People can use cattle and horses for farming. Ordinary people can afford cattle and horses, and goods from south to north are also cheaper.

Yun Huachun didn't make it clear. He only said that more people are needed to do these things, and that ordinary people have other opportunities to make money besides farming.

Yun Huachun couldn't explain the matter of creating jobs in just a few words.

He just wanted to say that repairing the railway tracks was harmless, but if that didn't work, he could still sell the ship to foreign merchants at a very high price, and they would definitely make a profit!

Even though Yun Huachun explained so clearly, there were still voices of opposition in the court.

"Your Majesty, what Marquis Yun said is nothing more than a fantasy! Marquis Yun never left the people of Jin, saying that he was doing it for the good of the people of Jin. But I feel that Marquis Yun was doing it for his own selfish interests!"

"Since Mr. Yun is favored by His Majesty and the late Emperor, he does not worry about the people, but just does business like a merchant, selling lamp oil, and speculating! Now he is bewitching Your Majesty to do this, His Majesty is wasting the people and ruining the money..." A gray-bearded adult came forward to testify and condemned himself.

Yun Huachun.

It is said that after Yun Huachun came to Beijing, he did nothing to serve the country and the people. Instead, he opened a lot of shops in the capital, drove up prices, and was not satisfied with the money he made in the capital, so he went east to make money for lamp oil.

He is a dignified prince and behaves like a businessman.

After one person stood up, others followed suit and condemned Yun Huachun's actions.

Yun Huachun didn't care about these accusations. He was not as knowledgeable as those who didn't understand science.

"What do you mean, sir, that I am only interested in money and don't care about the people or His Majesty?" Yun Huachun asked confidently.

"Adults think they worry more about the common people. Which adult has ever lived and ate with the poor craftsmen down there? See what kind of life they live, and have experienced their difficulties?"

"In my opinion, adults don't have to go to the fields. They just take their salary and spend their days leisurely at home drinking tea and reading! Just talking at this time can't be said to have done anything for the people." Yun Huachun said and glared at them.

He just wanted to do something practical and didn't want to argue with the people in the court.

"Your Majesty, I have been to many places in the east these days and have written many diaries, which I would like to dedicate to Your Majesty," Yun Huachun said.

The eldest grandson smiled softly and said, "Yun Aiqing, please present it."

As soon as they finished speaking, the three young eunuchs each walked into the main hall holding a lot of books.

These are all diaries written by Yun Huachun, there are seventy or eighty of them in a pile, written with charcoal specially made by Yun Tao.

Regarding the fact that someone in the court wanted to deal with the Yun family, the eldest grandson had already been angry with the Yun family and had been trying to deal with it for the past few years.

Chang Sunxian was also investigating secretly. He built the branches and leaves of this group of people and changed a few people, but some people were hidden too deeply.

If she couldn't find fault, there was nothing she could do as an emperor.

Yun Huachun is indifferent. He is an upright person. What faults can others find wrong with him?

You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others, so Yun Huachun came back this time and made sufficient preparations.

Chang Sunxian picked up one of the books and flipped through it for a while.

I found that the date above was written in great detail.

From the beginning to the end of the year, there are still some gaps.

June 12

It rained heavily and I didn't want to go out, so I slept at home all day.

June 13

It was still raining heavily, so I went out to eat, my clothes got wet, and I practiced calligraphy for a while before going to bed.

June 14

How annoying! Why does it rain every day! People are almost getting moldy!

June 15

The rain stopped and I went out to work for a day... The sun is too strong today! I miss the coolness when it rained a few days ago!

Changsun Xian couldn't help laughing when he saw it!

It is true that a day never falls, and everything is done in every detail.

Chang Sunxian read a copy himself, and also urged others, "Other adults should also take a copy and have a look. There are so many."

Some brave ones took one and frowned at the vernacular text in the diary. How could it be written in such a vulgar way?

There are also places to write in detail in the diary, including addresses, names, what you did, and your feelings.

Everyone had only one reaction when they saw it, and that was that Yun Huachun really didn't treat them as outsiders.

I wrote both good and bad things in my diary, and I felt even more confused and self-blame.

"I have been to many places in the east in the past few years. The summer in the east is very windy and rainy. When the wind blows, the wooden houses can be blown away. Many fishermen who make a living cannot even save their boats..."

"It's no big deal that the ship flew away. What's even more pity is that all the crops that have been raised for half a year have fallen into the ground!"

"I dare not say that I have any extraordinary achievements! But apart from paying taxes, the lamp oil money I earned was spent on the people. I opened several brick and tile workshops in the east and raised fifty or sixty craftsmen.

, let them burn bricks and sell them cheaply to the people around them."

"For those who can't afford bricks, I will ask them to come and work by themselves, and they will take the bricks they burn home to build their own houses. There are too many bricks to guarantee, but wherever I have been, everyone will have a brick house to live in!"

"

"...for the people who are disabled and unable to work in the fields, I tried my best to get them some craft work, let them make small things, and make a few for a penny. I can earn a few penny a day and barely survive!"

"...and the old man in his fifties and sixties who can't do any work! I tried my best to find some work for him, so that they wouldn't be too tired and could earn money. Many old people held my hand.

He cried and thanked me, saying that I had saved enough money to buy boards, which really made me sigh with emotion."

"I send the smart boys and girls to study, hoping that they will be able to enter the court and help the Jin Dynasty in the future. For those who have no talent for studying, I send them to learn trades, hoping that they will have a way to make a living in the future. Hongfeng Town

There are no beggars on our streets, but everyone with hands and feet is working to support themselves!”

Yun Huachun stood in front of the main hall and calmly stated what he had done in the past few years. He was not bragging, but telling them, "I am indeed not a good minister. I cannot be by His Majesty's side to share His Majesty's worries."

"But your majesty can take a look at the tax revenue in the east over the years, or go and see the people there in person. In addition to selling lamp oil and candles, I have done a lot of things!"

"These diaries are one of the proofs! If you don't believe me, you can go to the place in my diary and see what it looks like!"

Faced with Yun Huachun's detailed work report, those who originally accused Yun Huachun of only doing business were speechless.

It is said that it sells lamp oil, but apart from mining oil, Huachun does everything. It cares about people's livelihood and livelihood, so that the young can have something to rely on and the old can have something to do.

In many places, boys and girls who can walk will be taken to the fields to work. Elderly people are too old to work. In order to save food at home, they often go to the mountains to seek death.

Since the introduction of filial piety in the world, such things have become much less common, but it is very common for people who cannot afford food.

Someone immediately knelt down and admitted their mistake, "Your Majesty, I am being shallow. I should not accuse the Marquis like this..."

Of course, there are still people who are not convinced, "Since Mr. Yun is devoted to the people, why doesn't he educate the people in other places and still sells lamp oil in the east?"

Hearing these words, Yun Huachun wanted to roll his eyes, "My lord, every time there is a disaster, the court will take out money to provide disaster relief and appease the people. Where do you think this money comes from? Did it fall from the sky? I'm talking about someone."

Is it because you have money in your pocket that you can manage the east side like this?"

"This money is part of the profits from selling oil. It should be taken from the people and used by the people. I have already informed your Majesty of these things. I wonder what this lord has done in the past few years since he became an official in the court?"

The person being questioned by Yun Huachun was a civil servant who looked very young. After being questioned by Yun Huachun, his face turned green and red, "Master Yun Hou, I have been in court for eight years and compiled fifteen classics.

,Record……"

Oh, it turns out it was adapted from a textbook.

"Then what does this gentleman think I haven't done well enough?" Yun Huachun asked.

The civil servant's arms were shaking slightly, whether he was angry with Yunhua Chun or afraid.

After being silent for a long time, he only said, "It's because the official is shallow!"

Since the person had already apologized, Yun Huachun did not pursue the person to ask questions.

Yun Huachun took out all the evidence, and those who thought he was not doing his job and only selling oil stopped.

During the next court session, many adults approached Yun Huachun, most of whom were on his side or admired him in their hearts, and some were fishing in troubled waters.
