Gao Gu was shaken, and for the first time he lost confidence.

Bai Minghe had a sentence that deeply stimulated him. When everyone in the Ming Dynasty was able to read and read. Although they could not write poems or write essays, they could remember daily life and write letters from home. At that time, what would happen to scholars who could only recite the rigid dogmas of the Four and Five Books? They were scholars.

But can they claim to be noble?

Gao Gu returned to his home in a student in Nanjing and mentioned his thoughts.

The student smiled bitterly: "The teacher is not worrying about anything. The student now feels like the useless scholar. He only copies and records some official documents every day. In addition to copying and writing, he waits for his salary every month. The student has been humiliated at the Nanjing Wharf, but he cannot refute it."

"What's the matter?" Gao Gu's curiosity was drawn out and he started asking before his students finished speaking.

The students in Gaogu only thought it was the teacher's concern and immediately replied: "The ships from the south were responsible for counting the New Year gifts sent to the six ministries of Nanjing. Because of the large number of goods, they needed to check carefully. However, they were humiliated by a shipper who thought that the code was closed and that it was hindering them. We must transport the goods from the dock before counting them, otherwise it would affect other ships' shipments."

Gao Gu nodded: "Maybe he is disrespectful in his language, but there are so many goods coming and going, so the dock must not be occupied. This is also the official documents of the Navy of Four Lands."

"What the student said is not? Changfeng? Literature. The shipworker thought that the student's method of counting goods was too stupid. He told the student a joke about a chicken and a rabbit in the same cage. When he was telling this joke, he used a pencil to make some calculations on a piece of paper. The student still kept that piece of paper and asked his colleagues who had excellent mathematics, so he could only say that he was quite clever."

Gao Gu understood. These people used a stupid method of counting one by one.

Among the navy and other ship workers, each of whom was responsible for cargo allocation had to carefully study the math and use the calculation method. Otherwise, if you go to count one by one, you would waste too much time on the dock.

In the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, the wharf is small and small, with a lot of ships and a lot of cargo.

"Forget it, I will give you a memorial to Long Live. Tell me about this matter. Perhaps God will change, and what Confucian scholars learn cannot be just the Four Books and Five Classics. Otherwise, within ten years, Confucianism will no longer be respected by the people."

Takaya's words made his students deeply agree.

"What the teacher said is very true. In the past, people said that scholars were scholars. But once workers, farmers and merchants found that what they learned was not inferior to scholars. When their knowledge was higher than scholars, scholars were no longer so mysterious and noble. This was caused by the white-name crane, but it was not his fault. As the teacher said, do people in the world have no right to read and read? Once the price of books dropped by 50% and everyone could afford books, students could no longer think about it."

Knowledge monopoly is not a human cause.

First, books and cultural supplies are too expensive. Second, people do not realize that reading has other uses besides the imperial examination. Third, groups that can impart knowledge are always owned by a few people.

The literacy rate of the Ming Dynasty was less than one percent.

Bai Minghe was too lazy to manage Gao Gu, what did he think? He just needed some excellent teachers. At present, Bai Minghe still had one big thing to do. That is his and Huaiyu's bridal chamber.

Baiminghe is not a domineering person, of course others don’t think so.

The small courtyard created by Huaiyu still has a nice name called Mingyuyuan. After entering the main entrance, there is a huge piece of jade in the middle of the garden. This stone was sent by the merchant gang and it is original jade. The white-name crane did not make people carve it. It just handled it briefly and placed it in the middle of the yard.

It just fits the name of this garden Ming Yuyuan.

The palace maids guarding the door saw Bai Minghe appear and turned around and wanted to escape. It was not that Bai Minghe was terrifying, but because the two people following Bai Minghe had their waist cards represent their high status in the palace. Even the eunuch in charge would give some face when he saw this gilded waist card.

"Follow the reward of Mr. Ma, thank you for your kindness and leave."

An escort threw a pack of small silver ingots to the head palace maid. The palace maid thanked her repeatedly and fled as if she was holding the silver bag.

The two little palace maids in the inner courtyard were waiting at the door. Seeing Bai Minghe arrived, they opened the door and stepped aside.

The guard gave one person a ingot of gold, all of which were two taels of small ingots. This is the rule that Wang Cheng had explained. Although many people sometimes blocked the door to ask for rewards, many people did it too much, but in fact it was for good luck. You, the white-famous crane, are not bad at this, so you just reward some.

"Brother-in-law!" Huaiyu's face turned red.

Bai Minghe's face turned red and hesitated, "Can you change this name and call her husband?"

"Yeah, husband...you!" Huaiyu was still a little uncomfortable.

Huaiyu always blushed when drinking a glass of wine and didn't say a word. No matter what Bai Minghe said, Huaiyu just nodded.

Forget it, let’s do the job. Bai Minghe gently picked up Huaiyu. The room was full of spring...

Suddenly, Huaiyu screamed: "Brother-in-law..., look!"

Bai Minghe almost handed over the gun. This felt so evil. Could it be that his head was too polluted by the Internet in later generations? Then continue...

"Brother-in-law..." Huaiyu screamed. Bai Minghe believed that the sound could be heard ten miles away, especially on this Ming night without the noisy night at night. Bai Minghe wanted to stop again, and he always felt a very strange feeling in his heart.

Not to mention the white-famous crane, the Qinghe in the garden next to her has strange expressions on her face.

After finally getting through it, Bai Minghe felt that it was too tiring than moving tens of thousands of bricks. He was about to coax Huaiyu a few words, but who thought Huaiyu was already asleep, and this girl actually had the habit of rolling quilts. It was so cold!

The white-known crane had no choice but to put on his clothes and lean against the bed all night.

It was finally dawn, and Bai Minghe made an excuse and escaped. His face seemed to be unable to sleep well.

The next morning, Bai Minghe found an excuse to go on a trip. He had been in Nanjing for many days and had not been around here yet. Bai Minghe wanted to see the scenery of ancient Nanjing and modern Nanjing.

The carriage of the white-famous crane is in front, and the carriage of Huaiyu and Qinghe is in back.

"Huaiyu, how did you last night?" Qinghetie asked in a low voice in Huaiyu's ear.

Huaiyu nodded, without any embarrassment, and answered directly: "Sister said it would hurt a little, but it hurts a lot. My brother-in-law felt heartbroken and said he would continue after a few days. I felt that my brother-in-law was very hard and sweating profusely. Finally, I fell asleep. After waking up, my brother-in-law was wearing clothes and rolling the corner of the bed. I would prepare two quilts next time."

Huaiyu didn't know that he couldn't just say anything in the room.

Qinghe laughed and scolded the silly girl in her heart, but she probably understood that Bai Minghe was sweating profusely because of Huaiyu's scream and brother-in-law's scream.

Bai Minghe didn't know that the two girls were talking about his own words in the carriage, but his mind had turned to the scenery in front of him.

The first thing to see is the Yangtze River. When the white-famous crane came to the riverside and saw that there was nothing except some ships on the river, I felt inexplicably empty, because there were bridges on the riverside in later generations.

"A bridge should be built here!" Bai Minghe spoke subconsciously.

After saying this, Bai Minghe regretted it. With the current industrial capacity of the Ming Dynasty, building a bridge here is like a day and night talk, or dreaming in the daytime. A bridge, a bridge on the Yangtze River?

"Brother-in-law, have you woken up?" Huaiyu asked.

Bai Minghe laughed: "It's a dream, not a dream. I have calculated that it takes more than one million stones of high-quality steel to build a bridge here, and at least eight million stones of high-quality cement to build at least five million stones. It takes 500,000 labor to work continuously for ten to fifteen years. I hope I can build a bridge in my lifetime."

Many of the people following him heard Bai Minghe’s words. Everyone has different thoughts.

What is the concept of one million stone of fine steel? Each soldier in the Ming Dynasty had a set of fine steel armor, plus a full set of fine steel weapons. The extra one could be equipped with at least 100,000 fine steel armor heavy cavalry. There is no end to use it, so continue to use it. It is almost enough to build another ten thousand fine steel cannons.

Therefore, Bai Minghe's words are just dreaming.

When there was really one million stones of fine steel, even the Emperor of Ming Dynasty did not dare to issue an order to build a bridge. The lethality of civil and military saliva in the court was amazing.

At present, the output of Ming Dynasty steel is about 300,000 stones a year, which is after the production of Tangshan Xingangfang.

Bai Minghe sighed softly, thinking that it was worthwhile to build such a bridge in his lifetime, and it was not considered a waste of time to come to the Ming Dynasty.

"Where is the best place in Nanjing?" Bai Minghe asked again. "Xuanwu Lake, Zhongshan!" A Dongchang man who was in Nanjing replied. Bai Minghe was stunned for a moment and asked again: "So what are the best century-old stores in Nanjing, and what are the old brands?"

"The best chefs in Nanjing, the best dim sum masters, the best jewelry maker, and the best craftsman. In addition to what we brought from the capital, we are from Xingshouyuan, so these best ones are also in Xuanwu Lake." This time, Wang Cheng answered, Bai Minghe was really amused and crying.

"Well, I always see the Yangtze River, but it's not considered a waste of time to run out and walk around!"

What else can the white-famous crane say?

The white-known crane's tour was stopped for no reason, except for taking a look at the primitive Yangtze River, it turned around and went home.

A few days later, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty in Beijing had received a memo from Gao Gu and Bai Minghe. After reading it, he frowned. It was not that there was anything wrong with this memo, nor was it anyone's fault, but this memo indicates a change in the future.

After thinking about it, Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty said to Eunuch Cai: "Call Jin Ying to arrange it. After tomorrow's morning court, I will borrow the Taoist temple of Bai Mansion to meditate for half a day!" (To be continued...)
