168. The text is over
Jiang Zhen naturally didn't like Dongyang. When he was in Daqi, he didn't like to hire Dongyang people to work for himself like other maritime merchants.
However, he would not kill anyone for no reason... Of course, it is necessary to let them learn the language of Daqi.
When he first arrived in the East, Jiang Zhen spent a slightly chaotic period, but later Cheng Yongzhen's old subordinates came to surrender, and his fleet that was going to transport food and grass to the Liaodong Iron Cavalry was also sent back by him, and he also brought back the food that he had originally planned to send to Liaodong. Jiang Zhen's life became stable.
Then, Jiang Zhen took this opportunity to compile two textbooks with Zhao Jin and several accountants. These two textbooks are Chinese textbooks in simplified Chinese and mathematics textbooks.
The text of Daqi is traditional Chinese.
After Jiang Zhen came to Daqi, he learned traditional Chinese characters. He had to admit that traditional Chinese characters have their unique beauty, but similarly, traditional Chinese characters have one disadvantage - it is too difficult to learn.
In some countries where the writing is particularly simple, many people can learn the writing of their country without going to school, but no one can do this in Daqi. After all, those words are really hard to learn.
Over the years, Jiang Zhen has always asked his men to study and learn to recognize words, but his men have learned very ordinary things. He doesn't recognize many words but doesn't say them. Sometimes when he knows them, he can't write them even if he wants to.
It is absolutely not easy to let people who have never learned characters before learn so many commonly used characters.
In modern times, the invention of simplified Chinese characters and pinyin was to popularize education more quickly, so that those who had never read books before could learn words faster... Now, Jiang Zhen naturally brought it over.
And this is indeed beneficial. After using simplified characters, everyone's speed of learning characters is faster, and the existence of pinyin allows everyone to unify their accents.
Of course, given that Jiang Zhen himself forgot many things, he couldn't completely copy them... But this doesn't matter much, isn't it?
Jiang Zhen asked his subordinates to learn these, which naturally allowed those Eastern people to learn, especially their children.
In the school built by Jiang Zhen, in the morning, the teacher would teach children about cultural lessons. In the afternoon, the older children would take them to do some work, such as binding books, farming and vegetables...
Reading is free. If they want to keep reading, of course they have to work.
Those Easterners did not think that Jiang Zhen was using child labor, but were very grateful to Jiang Zhen. After all, Jiang Zhen did this to give their children the opportunity to receive education. However, Jiang Zhen did this to be selfish.
These schools have a rule that in schools, you must speak Mandarin... that is, Daqi's Mandarin.
When Jiang Zhen was in elementary school, there was such a regulation in the elementary school where he was.
The dialect where he is actually very distinctive, but because of this regulation, many children of his age speak dialect very badly, and even some of them can't speak them at all.
The Oriental people he took in were all the people at the bottom of the East, and they didn’t know how to write in the East. Jiang Zhen asked them to learn the language of Daqi, and let their children learn the language of Daqi from an early age... In the future, these people will probably completely forget the language and writing in the East.
In fact, the most cruel thing to invade a country is to destroy the civilization of this country.
And when the Eastern people here completely forget their civilization, can they still be considered Eastern people?
Of course, they cannot be considered as people from Daqi... After all, many of the people Jiang Zhen used to teach these people were modern knowledge.
Not only that, he also made a lot of changes in customs and habits.
For example, in Daqi, men can have three wives and four concubines, but here, Jiang Zhen directly stipulated that each man can only have one wife.
If Jiang Zhen was in Daqi and wanted someone to do this, he would definitely be scolded to death, but no one objected to it here.
Although there are literate people in his subordinates, they are not considered serious scholars and do not insist on some inexplicable ethics, let alone... they lack women.
Whether it is Jiang Zhen’s subordinates or Cheng Yongzhen’s old subordinates who defected to him, most of the people in it are men!
So a large group of people were bachelors! At this time, Jiang Zhen said that each person could only marry one wife, so they naturally agreed with each other.
It would be great if everyone could only marry one wife! Otherwise, those women, Shuang'er, wouldn't they be able to marry Jiang Zhen and He Chunsheng?
Should I only marry a wife alone?
His subordinates did not object to Jiang Zhen’s order at all, and those Eastern people naturally did not object to it.
They are all poor, they are from the bottom of the East, and many people cannot marry their wives... In this case, it is better to marry one of them if they can only marry one. What does it matter?
This was the first order issued by Jiang Zhen. Not long after, Jiang Zhen said that women and Shuang'er also had to work, and children, whether girls or little Shuang'er, would go to study.
No one objected to this either.
They are particularly short of people now. Those men have to participate in training and take turns patrolling and defending their territory and go to sea to do business. It is really not enough. At this time, it is actually nothing to let women and Shuang'er do things, right?
Didn’t you see Brother Zhao Jin still care about so many people?
As for children studying together, it’s even less.
Most of the people who came to the East with Jiang Zhen were poor. When they were young, men and women played together. Now that they are going to study together, what does it matter?
Jiang Zhen’s daughters all went to study!
Jiang Zhen was actually very glad that those who came here with him were all born in a group of poor people, so it was very easy to teach.
Many concepts are being changed subtly.
Under Jiang Zhen's deliberate guidance, many things in the place where he is slowly moving closer to modern times, and many ideas have also taken root and sprouted in people's subconscious.
When a woman moved out of her home because she was dissatisfied with her husband's love to beat others and relied on her own to make money, Jiang Zhen said that she could get married and then find another person to marry.
The woman got married without hesitation and found someone else to marry.
Most men do not realize that there is a problem with this... Many of them cannot marry their wives, and even want to have more things like this.
However, Jiang Zhen knew that this was actually changing.
If they were still in Daqi, it would be too difficult to make such a change. At least they would have to completely break up the entire Daqi class system several times before they could be completed. But here it is much simpler.
They are all desperate people who leave their hometowns. It is already great to be able to live, and they don’t care about many things.
Jiang Zhen began to intervene in the war between the Dongyang royal family and the Mu Mansion very early. He made a lot of money by selling things to the people on both sides, but he never intervened in the war.
He accumulates grain and is slow to become king, which is also suitable for his current situation.
But after the Eastern Royal Family and Mu Mansion had almost fought, and discovered his existence, began to be afraid of him, and even wanted to drive him away, he took action without hesitation.
The Eastern people he took in at first were already loyal to him, while the Eastern people in other places... could have enough food to follow Jiang Zhen, but they would not resist when Jiang Zhen did not want to kill them.
Jiang Zhen brought many craftsmen from Daqi. He had the best weapons and a strictly trained army. It was not difficult to clean up the royal family and the wooden mansion in the East with such an army.
If these two parties can unite, they may still have the power to fight with Jiang Zhen. But the key is that the royal family has fought with the Mu Mansion for so many years, and the two sides have a deep hatred. How can they still cooperate?
The East is not big, and Jiang Zhen spent two years to sweep the East.
War always kills people, and this is naturally no exception.
Some of Jiang Zhen's subordinates died, but more of them died were still Easterners.
Most of the nobles in the East were killed, their property was taken over by Jiang Zhen, and their land was distributed to the people of the East by Jiang Zhen. At the same time, he began to promote the schools he had made in the place he occupied.
Jiang Zhen is not a very powerful person. In some aspects, such as handling cumbersome affairs, he is actually not even as good as Brother Zhao Jin.
He couldn't manage too many people, let alone too much land. Fortunately, the East is not particularly large, and there are not many people here.
Moreover, Jiang Zhen also found that there were still some talented people among the rough people under his command.
Of course, he still lacks people.
However, even if there is a shortage of people to govern this country, it can still be stabilized if it has an army. In a few years, there will definitely be talents.
In the eighth year when Jiang Zhen came to the East, he founded the country in the East and established the country of China.
This is his own thought.
When Jiang Zhen initially proposed to establish the country, his subordinates were very supportive. They wanted Jiang Zhen to be the emperor and to be the prince, marquis and uncle. They also wanted to build a big house to enjoy life, and even found more Japanese women to serve him.
But all these were rejected by Jiang Zhen.
Jiang Zhen directly created a constitutional monarchy.
A king does not have much power, it is more of a symbolic meaning. Rights are in the hands of the president and parliament. If a title is a kind of honor, there is nothing else, and there is no privilege.
At first, no one understood why Jiang Zhen did this, but later he found that they could get a lot of rights when they joined the parliament, and they didn't even have to worry about being directly sentenced to death by the emperor with great power. So he thought this was actually better.
Of course, it is not good to not marry a few more wives... But after a long time, I get used to it.
After Jiang Zhen developed the constitutional monarchy, he did not become the emperor, but asked Brother Zhao to be the one.
However, he became Prime Minister.
The day before taking office, Jiang Zhen hugged Zhao Mingzhu, who had grown up and had not been hugged for several years: "Dad Mingzhu, you will definitely not be bullied in the future!"
