Chapter 198 The Importance of Technology Development
Seeing the excited expressions of the nearby craftsmen, Ying Yu also showed a smile on his face.
The development of science and technology has a close relationship with this group of people.
And in this era, there are many theories of hundreds of schools, which are developing towards technology.
Even without the appearance of Ying Yu, Daqin's technology is now far ahead and is at the top of the world.
Historically, Huaxia has made significant contributions to the development of human science and technology.
But the technological and industrial revolution did not happen in modern Chinese history!
In Ying Yu's view, the reason for this is actually very simple.
There is a key person among them, that is: Dong Zhongshu!
Because it was Dong Zhongshu who proposed to depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone.
Since then, Confucianism has dominated.
As soon as the saying that "everything is inferior but reading is high" came out, people all over the world came to study Confucianism.
The Theory of Hundred Schools, which lost its fresh blood, gradually came to an end, and finally disappeared in the long river of history.
The disappearance of Baijia also means that the development of science and technology has no future.
After Confucianism became dominant, it chose to be self-styled.
China is far ahead of the world in technology, but it is slowly falling behind other countries.
Later, under the guise of worship, the foreign race brought China's technology back.
After being carried forward in one's own country, in turn, it hanged and beat Huaxia, causing the land of Huaxia to be severely damaged.
The reason for this is that, to put it bluntly, the artisan's way is not taken seriously.
Now that Ying Yu came across, he was not Dong Zhongshu, and he would not respect Confucianism alone.
Not to mention shutting the country to the outside world and staying in the dark.
The current Daqin is a great time for a hundred schools of thought to contend. Although the class concept of scholars, peasants, businessmen and commerce has been formed, it is not deep.
It can be easily changed.
You only need to praise Gongshujie, and then publicize it, so that the common people can see the benefits of being a craftsman.
The reputation and salary have been improved, so it is natural that no one will learn the artisan's way.
The development of Daqin's science and technology will inevitably improve steadily with the continuous special research of craftsmen.
With the addition of himself as a traverser, Daqin's technological development will definitely be able to crush the whole world.
What Ying Yu needs to do now is to instill in Ying Zheng the idea that technology is the primary productive force.
"What are you thinking, kid? Why are you so engrossed?"
Seeing Ying Yu standing there in a daze, Brother Zheng asked curiously.
"Father, there are still too few craftsmen who are good enough in Daqin."
"Just like this catapult, although it is powerful, the technology required for its manufacture is also extremely high.
All kinds of parts need to be precisely controlled, and this car alone has cost a lot of manpower and material resources. "
"And making all kinds of equipment, whether it is for military or civilian use, is not craftsman."
"That's why I'm going to set up a discipline in the Royal Academy that specializes in cultivating craftsmen.
At the same time, a patent award is set up to motivate craftsmen. "
"Patent Award?"
Hearing the word "patent award", Ying Zheng immediately became interested.
After Ying Yu explained, Ying Zheng nodded in agreement with him.
After all, there was the example of Ying Yu first.
The various things he invented can be said to be of endless benefit to the development of Daqin.
Ying Zheng saw all these things in his eyes, so he didn't have any resistance to promoting craftsmen.
"My son represents the craftsmen of the world, thank you for your father's kindness!"
Ying Yu said with a smile on his face.
Gongshujie and the others beside him also had expressions of excitement on their faces.
Looking at Ying Yu, he was full of gratitude.
They heard clearly what Ying Yu said just now.
The craftsman finally had a chance to stand up.
After watching the demonstration of the catapult, Ying Zheng checked the training of the recruits again.
After a year of training, the South Camp has [-] recruits, and now there have been earth-shaking changes.
And the [-] recruits belonging to Ying Yu made Ying Zheng's eyes shine even more.
Using the system to check, Ying Yu found [-] recruits equipped with advanced equipment such as horses and crossbows.
Today's combat power has reached 30.
This gave him a jolt.
Unexpectedly, just the horse lance and the crossbow can increase the combat power of the recruits so much.
If this is equipped with Tang Hengdao and Mingguang Armor, it should not be difficult to reach the 60 combat power required by the system.
After the visit, Ying Zheng took Wang Ben, Zhang Han and others to leave Nan Daying with satisfaction.
After chatting with Xia Houying and others, Ying Yu also returned to Yuxuan Pavilion.
……
Xianyang Palace, Qilin Palace court meeting.
Feng Quji enthusiastically reported to Shihuang Yingzheng on the preliminary preparations for the Grand Canal.
The news that Gongshujie was bestowed as a duke and doctor has spread, and the craftsmen of the whole Great Qin have seen the opportunity to stand out.
Therefore, everyone is full of motivation. Under such circumstances, the preliminary exploration of the Grand Canal is going very smoothly.
The enthusiasm of the businessman is also very high. In just a few months, Ying Yu has already raised tens of millions of money.
With so much money, it is enough as the start-up capital of the Grand Canal in the early stage.
"Your Majesty, everything is ready now. As long as the labor is in place, the Grand Canal can officially start."
After Feng Quji finished speaking, he looked at Ying Yu.
They have no way to solve the problem of labor.
Because only Ying Yu can let the Da Yue Clan send troops to arrest the people of the Maurya Dynasty.
"Dayue Clan, is there any news?"
On the throne, Ying Zheng asked.
"Return to Your Majesty, there is no news yet!"
Zhang Han hurriedly stepped forward to talk.
At this time, Meng Yi hesitated and said:
"Your Majesty, 30 laborers is not a small amount after all. Why don't you recruit some hired workers and start the Grand Canal project first?"
As soon as these words came out, a strange look appeared on the faces of all the officials in the Qilin Palace.
Although Meng Yi didn't say it clearly, anyone can hear it.
He was worried that the labor promised by Da Yuezhi would not be available as scheduled.
Whether the Da Yuezhi could not chew on the bone of the Mauryan Dynasty or had ulterior motives is worth pondering.
After all, aliens are not to be trusted.
And this also involved Ying Yu, because he was the one who came up with this strategy to drive away wolves and tigers.
If Da Yueshi could not send people here as scheduled, it would have a considerable impact on his reputation.
Many officials were already secretly looking at Ying Yu.
It turns out that His Royal Highness is not so godly.
Not everything can be done.
The atmosphere above the court hall suddenly became a little different.
"Your Majesty, I think Meng Shangqing's proposal is feasible!"
"The exploration of the Grand Canal has been completed, and the people have been looking forward to it for a long time. The construction period cannot be delayed because of labor issues, right?"
"That's right, Yichen thinks it's more reliable to recruit labor for the construction of the Grand Canal."
At this time, Meng Yi's face was not very good-looking, he knew that because of his words, some people might not be able to sit still.
On the throne, Ying Zheng looked at Ying Yu with questioning eyes.
