Chapter 131 My ship can fly (congratulations to the leader "1 Mountains and Flowing Waters 1"!)
There is really something wrong with the account books of Huangzhuang.
Feng Bao sent the accounts of Huangzhuang to the Accounts Department. After careful analysis, he found more than a dozen minor problems, but the total of these problems amounted to less than two thousand taels of silver. , and most of them were caused by lazy eunuchs who failed to calculate carefully, rather than by thieves who deliberately made false claims.
The literati of the Ming Dynasty only commented on the eunuchs in the Longqing and Wanli years in two words: tranquility, because the eunuchs in this period really had a sense of being aloof from the world. The emperor did not argue anymore. They eunuchs No matter how much we fight, we can't win over the civil and military nobles.
The accounts of Huangzhuang highlight two words: strive for success.
Even Feng Bao was standing in the Wenhua Palace with his waist straightened by three points. He was so arrogant that the eunuchs were somewhat proud.
This comparison caused tons of damage to Zhang Siwei, to the officials who stole the country for personal gain, and to the civil servants who claimed to be moral gentlemen. At least the eunuchs were better than others in being domestic slaves. People are not that strong at all.
The streets and alleys were talking about Zhang Siwei and Wang Chonggu’s family thieves. As soon as the share ratio was announced, people all over the city immediately discussed the matter. When people talked about it, Zhang Siwei directly Two big shopkeepers and a bunch of accountants sued the Shuntian Mansion Yamen!
Zhang Siwei reported to the official position.
As the second-ranking figure in the Cai Rong of the Jin Party, and a rival to Ge Shouli, after Zhang Siwei had a thief in his family, he could only ask the government to help recover it, because it was a thief, and he had to guard against it day and night. It's hard to prevent Zhang Siwei and Wang Chonggu from falling into a vicious cycle. It's all domestic thieves who are digging for the foundation of their family. And what criteria are used to judge whether the people they can send are family thieves?
Zhang Siwei knew he had made a joke, but he wrote a letter to Wang Chonggu and finally finalized the charter and reported it to the official!
The scandal in your family has become known to everyone, causing uproar in the city, and making the world laugh. There is no need to hide it, report it directly to the official, and ask the court to bring justice to the two families.
Zhang Siwei went to report to the official, but the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen refused to accept him. The Shuntian Prefecture Yamen was different from other prefecture yamen. He was a Gyeonggi Yamen. Zhang Siwei and Wang Chonggu were not only the bosses who had suffered losses, but also the imperial court. There are a third-rank official, a governor of Xuanda University, a teacher who is in charge of Zhan Shi's house, and a teacher of the unborn prince. They are the whips of the Jin Party. Whether to accept this case or not is a matter of political trends and sides.
For the sake of face, Zhang Siwei had already lost it. He simply submitted a memorial as a third-level official, expounding the stakes and recounting the matter from beginning to end.
"Zhang Siwei is not as smart as he is smart. He is not ambitious but determined. If he has the world in his heart, he is an outstanding person." After reading Zhang Siwei's memorial, Zhu Yijun was filled with emotion for Zhang Hong beside him. Qian, Zhao Mengyou is right, Zhang Siwei is really smart, but not very smart.
Zhang Siwei wrote in the memorial [Zengzi said: A gentleman cannot think of his position. ] Start the discussion.
Although there are differences in the status of ordinary people, whether they are big or small, they all have their own duties to perform. If one abandons one's own duties and fantasizes about being in power, it will be regarded as absenteeism to oneself and to others it will be an intrusion into the official position.
A gentleman's body is where he lives, and what his heart is thinking about is also there. All he thinks about all day long is to do what he should do in order to fulfill his duty.
If you are in a warehouse position, you will want to audit accounts, tell cashiers, and fulfill your financial management duties; if you are in a military position, you will want to train diligently, follow military orders, and fulfill your duties as a soldier. As for his duties, he was not offside at first but had some thoughts. If this is the case, all the duties will be completed and the affairs of the common people will be fulfilled.
Zhang Siwei is discussing that if everyone performs his duties and everyone is in his place, then things can be done. This is a common saying in Confucian etiquette, but later Zhang Siwei connected this matter with the theory of contradiction. .
The main contradiction behind the Ming Dynasty's current financial deficit is the conflict of interests between the court and the powerful. The powerful embezzlement of the means of production has led to a shrinking of the tax base, resulting in a deterioration of tax revenue. As a government office destined to be notorious, how can the tax office maintain its long-term sustainability? Its transcendent status, the case of Zhang Siwei's family, has great practical significance. The accounts inspected by the tax inspector can be used as evidence for prosecution, which is enough to use secondary contradictions to reconcile the main contradictions.
Zhang Siwei also mentioned in the main contradiction that the complexity of the main contradiction is due to the mutual influence of many secondary contradictions. To solve the main contradiction in a problem, it is necessary to solve the relatively secondary contradictions. , only by resolving these secondary contradictions that constitute the principal contradiction bit by bit can the principal contradiction be resolved and a state of conflict and balance be achieved.
Zhang Siwei extended from resolving conflicts to celebrating the power of rewards, punishments and the master's power.
Celebrations, rewards, threats and punishments are the main means to adjust conflicts. Only threats and punishments without celebrations and rewards are not a long-term solution. They can only show the majesty of the emperor, but not the benevolence of His Majesty. Everything is always in a cycle. Going back and forth and moving forward one after another.
Finally, Zhang Siwei asked the emperor to take action.
Zhang Siwei and Wang Chonggu suffered a serious loss of face due to the house thief, but in the end, as scholars, they further earned back their face as scholars in terms of contradiction.
Wang Chonggu's memorial is very interesting. He is expressing his merits and preaching in large paragraphs about his contribution to the governor.
Last year, he built a total of 142 cellars for sweet potato seedlings in Xuanda and Dazhou, and set up nearly 200,000 acres of farming land specifically for seedlings. Last year, he had a bumper sweet potato harvest. The average yield per mu has reached about 70% of that of Baoqisi, far ahead of other farming areas. It has recruited 12,000 people and has a population of more than 46,000. About 20,000 people in Shanxi left Yanmen Pass and entered Xuandatun. Plow.
The objects to be returned are the Han Chinese who fled the famine and became bandits in the mountains, and the Tatars who fled to the northwest Jin Kingdom and returned to the northwest Tatars in order to avoid the Gaoshi Valley Rural Rental Department and sought private residence in the mountains and forests. Hua Ming and so on. Such impressive results were achieved because Xuanda was really farming, planting the fields when he came, and collecting taxes according to the taxes set by the imperial court.
Wang Chonggu also put forward his own opinion, how to judge who did well and who did not do well in farming, clearing the land, and returning the land? How to judge this standard? Just look at population flow. If the population flows to his rule, it must mean that he has done something right, which can be used as a supplement to the examination method.
In the memorial, Wang Chonggu also looked forward to this year's prospects. It is expected that he will lead 220,000 landless tenants and tourists to further cultivate the land, restore at least 10,000 hectares of farming in Xuanda, build another 300 nurseries and fire rooms, and set up 10 more Tens of thousands of acres of farmland has returned to its heyday before the 29th year of Jiajing during the Xuanda Farming Campaign. Wang Chonggu said that he would try his best to do his job as a governor.
In the end, Wang Chonggu hoped that the little emperor could help recover some losses.
"Let the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen accept the case. The money must go somewhere." Zhu Yijun finally made the decision and asked the court to come forward to recover part of the losses for Wang Chonggu and Zhang Siwei.
The four words celebration, reward, power and punishment are the main means of adjusting conflicts.
There is a long table in front of Zhu Yijun. On the long table is a three-foot-long sealed water channel. At the end of the water channel there is a wind pill and a water pill for measuring wind speed and water flow speed. Zhu Yijun wants to understand a question. That's why hard sails can sail in all directions.
Especially when there is a headwind, why can a hard sail sail against the wind?
And his tool is a small sailboat with a weight and a hard sail. Daming's hard sail is a parallel sail, that is, in the horizontal direction of the sail surface, a sail is installed at certain intervals. The bamboo strips are used to form a parallel frame. The purpose of this is to sail in all directions and the wind blows from all directions.
This is a very magical technology, and Zhu Yijun plans to study and understand the reason behind it.
On the third day of March, the spring was bright, and the little emperor ended the court meeting as always.
In the case of Wang Yaozhuo's family, everyone has been confiscated. Lu's family was directly confiscated. However, the rich and powerful people in the poor area did not have much money after draining them. The Lu family was exiled to the border of Yunnan. Fang, bared his teeth with the big python in the virgin forest.
Zhang Siwei's case has also come to a further conclusion. They are all family thieves. Behind these shopkeepers' accounts are the Zhang family and the Wang family. Uncles and uncles are embezzling wantonly inside. As for how to solve it, it is difficult for upright officials to resolve household affairs. The court finally It was decided to let Zhang Siwei and Wang Chonggu hold a family meeting to solve the problem themselves.
As for the shopkeepers and accountants, they were all imprisoned and served five years, which meant five years of hard work.
The case of Zhang Siwei was published in the Dibao again, which was a round of follow-up reporting. Everyone became more aware of the role of the tax office.
"I'll leave." Everyone was about to leave, but Zhu Yijun stood up and said with a smile: "My dear friends, please stay, I have discovered something interesting recently."
" Zhang Daban, please call the emperor’s uncle here and bear witness together. It’s really weird and I can’t understand it at all. Please help me clear up my doubts.”
When I hear the word “clear my confusion” The courtiers immediately cheered up. The emperor's doubts could not be solved so easily.
“When I first started, I was always curious about how hard sails can move against the wind. Generally speaking, the wind blows the boat forward, which is normal, but it can also go forward against the wind, which really makes me very happy. It's strange, so I did a series of experiments and finally determined something. But as the teacher said, contradictions are always like this. When a contradiction is solved, endless problems will arise."
" The teacher said: You know something when you are born, you know it when you learn it, and you know it when you are stuck; the teacher also said: You can’t understand it by name, you must ask for the reason.” ; Fifty years of knowing the destiny is why it is so. The destiny is called nature, and the will is called Tao. "
"The teacher also said: This is the case for governing a country and knowing why it is the way it is. It’s inevitable.”
Zhang Juzheng, who was called sir, was already numb. The little emperor really studied the principles he taught the little emperor seriously! It was all taught by him!
When talking about the Analects of Confucius, Mencius and the Doctrine of the Mean, Zhang Juzheng once said in order to clearly explain the principles of governing the country:
The master knows what is happening and why it is so, and then knows that it is inevitable. Then he advocates being honest and honest in order to prevent slander, and he holds power in order to eliminate the arrogance of others. Therefore, there is no room for slander, and the evildoer will hide himself. Those who judge and govern the body should distinguish it.
Knowing that this thing exists, knowing why it happened, and knowing what will happen if you do this are three cognitive processes.
If we can know its inevitability, then the strong and moderate spirit in the court can block the trend of excluding dissidents and slandering, and we can take the power of celebrating, rewarding, imposing and punishing into our own hands to eliminate the spirit of disobedience. Then he slandered that traitors cannot stand in the court, that there are more gentlemen than villains, and that evil men lurk on their own, so that the world can be governed.
The little emperor really cannot do without his husband.
Zhang Juzheng said that he was not that powerful. He just wanted to teach the little emperor to govern the country. That was all. He knew how to do it. He was never omniscient and omnipotent. The little emperor praised him. A height that does not belong to him.
"Sir?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng and said with a bright face.
Zhang Juzheng said bravely: "I am here."
"Sir, did you say so?" Zhu Yijun continued to ask.
Zhang Juzheng said: "I said it."
"Sir, please bring all the courtiers to the side hall." Zhu Yijun stood up and walked to the side hall. The young eunuchs opened the heavy curtains, and the early spring sunshine poured in. Inside the side hall, there are a lot of understandable and incomprehensible machines in different shapes.
Zhu Yijun stood under the sun, inspected the machinery to be demonstrated today, went over the draft he had prepared, and saw Zhu Zaiyu walking into the side hall.
"This is a water column, this is a wooden ball. Ministers, please don't blink and witness this magical scene." Zhu Yijun held a palm-sized paulownia ball in his hand. This wooden ball was hollow. Not very heavy.
The water column was about as high as a person, shooting upwards from the middle of the wooden basin, and the water splashed into the wooden basin below. Zhu Yijun casually placed the wooden ball on the water column, and the wooden ball started It kept rolling, but stayed firmly above the water column, spinning rapidly.
The water dragon plays with the pearl, and the wooden ball keeps spinning, but it just won't run out or fall.
Zhu Yijun ignored the stunned expressions of everyone and continued: "Sir, come forward and block the water flow with the back of your hand."
Zhang Juzheng walked to the basin, stretched out his hand, and the water flow was blocked, and the wooden ball fell steadily into Zhang Juzheng's hands. Zhang Juzheng shook the wooden ball in his hand, convinced that this was not a juggling act or a magic trick, the wooden ball was just an ordinary wooden ball. "Sir, please put the ball up again." Zhu Yijun said unhurriedly.
Zhang Juzheng is already used to it. If the little emperor says that he is the reincarnation of Emperor Shenwu, Zhang Juzheng will shout loudly, "Yeah, yeah, yeah."
When Zhang Juzheng thought that the little emperor's work had reached his limit, the little emperor could always perform work that Zhang Juzheng had never seen before.
Ordinary water flow and ordinary wooden balls were combined together, and a ball that rotated and stabilized among the water flow appeared in front of everyone.
"Wan Shangshu, come and try." Zhu Yijun took three steps back. As the emperor's master, Zhang Juzheng could of course get within three feet of the emperor, but Wan Shihe did not have this qualification.
Wan Shihe came to the water basin, tried again and again, shook the wooden ball in his hand vigorously a few times, and fell silent. They were very ordinary things, without any consecration or magic...or rather It's better to say it's a spell!
Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "The water flow is OK, but what about the wind?"
Zhu Yijun came to the other side, Xu Jue pulled the bellows, and the sound of whistling wind blew vertically upward from the vent, and Xiao The emperor threw the wooden ball up casually. The wind blew the wooden ball, and the wooden ball rotated and remained stable in the wind.
Zhu Yijun put away the wooden ball and signaled Xu Jue to stop the bellows. He said with a smile: "Someone wants to say, what's weird about this? It's not just the wind or water that holds the wooden ball, so the wooden ball Can't it fall off? But why doesn't it get blown away but stays here? Shouldn't it be washed away or blown away? "
"Actually, this is not a Taoist technique. It’s just the infinite principle of all things. The teacher said that cognition is a shield and practice is a spear. When we put it into practice, we discover all kinds of weird phenomena that conflict with cognition, and the contradictions gradually explain all the principles. "< br>
"My lords, please come with me."
Zhu Yijun stood next to another waterway. The water flow was steady and the wind blew. Zhu Yijun put two wooden boat models in it. , the two wooden boats slowly came together.
"Anyone who punts knows that two boats cannot be too close together, otherwise they will definitely hit each other. This is called boat sucking. Two boats running parallel is a taboo for punting, as it will capsize." Zhu Yijun said while looking at all the court officials. : "Why?"
"I know why this is the case."
Zhu Yijun started walking again, came to the closed waterway, and said with a smile: "Our Ming Dynasty's sails have been In ancient times, it was a hard sail. The skeleton of the hard sail would give the sailboat a concave and convex surface. At this time, this concave and convex surface is the biggest secret that the hard sail can sail against the wind. "
Zhu Yijun put it in his hands. The model was put into the water, and then the hooks with cotton threads were hung on the boat's hanging rings.
There are eight hooks on the cotton thread. An iron piece is fixed at the end of the cotton thread, which can continuously add weights. The force on the boat can be visually observed through the specific number of eight weights.
Zhu Yijun began to demonstrate the soft sail in the Thai and Western boating methods. While demonstrating, he said: "This is a soft sail. When the wind comes from the north, the weight in the south direction is pulled. When the wind comes from the south, the weight in the north direction is pulled. When the weight is pulled and the sail is perpendicular to the wind, we continue to increase the weight to keep the boat stationary and set it to a standard amount."
Zhu Yijun adjusted the sail and signaled the officials to observe the standard height. , the wind blowing the sail will inevitably produce a force. When the sail is perpendicular to the wind, this force is the largest and the most weight can be pulled.
“If the angle between the course and the wind is 45°, and the angle between the soft sail and the wind is 15°, the ship can still sail slowly at this time. We added weights and found that only 6.5% of a standard amount, the soft sail is not unable to sail against the wind, but the speed is too slow, only 6.5%, it can only move forward at a zigzag turtle speed, and usually, the wind is changeable, so In actual sailing, a large soft sail cannot sail against the wind."
"And we took out a hard sail." Zhu Yijun replaced the experimental material, fixed the hook, and said with a smile: "When the ship's heading. The angle between the wind and the wind is 45 degrees, and the angle between the hard sail and the wind is 15 degrees. A magical scene happened. "
The hard sail directly dragged a standard weight forward. In the case of headwind, the hard sail actually exerts greater force than when the sail is perpendicular to the wind!
Zhu Yijun kept adding weights, and finally the hard sailboat reached a force balance at 1.3 standard weights.
Hard sails run faster when the wind is against you.
There was an uproar, and the courtiers were talking about it. They looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief. They were sailing too fast.
When the wind speed is constant, a hard sail can run faster against the wind than with the wind. No matter where you go to explain it, they will never believe it unless they see it with their own eyes.
But the fact is right in front of us.
Zhu Yijun picked up the hard sailboat, removed the hooks one by one, hung the underwater balance wing with a streamlined symmetrical wing with concave and convex surfaces on the model, and placed a counterweight on the model. He looked at the side of the boat and said with a smile: "In fact, we can also increase the speed of the boat. When we install an accessory similar to the concave and convex surface of a hard sail on the bottom of the boat, the speed will be faster."
This time Zhu Yijun put the boat into the three-foot-long closed waterway, adjusted the sails of the boat, fixed them, and opened the air outlet.
The wind blew towards the model, and the ship began to sail quickly, completing the three-foot journey in a short time.
Zhu Yijun picked up his small model, took out a book of observation data and handed it to Zhang Hong, asking Zhang Hong to circulate it to the courtiers and continued: "With the underwater symmetrical balance wing and With a hard sail, the wind speed is twenty-four to forty miles per hour, and the ship can sail at forty-eight to eighty miles per hour, and the ship's speed will be twice the wind speed."
"This is a hard sail. Not only can it sail against the wind, it can even run faster than the wind, more than twice as fast."
"It is a pity that it cannot be used on large sails. At most, it can be used on a sampan with two people, because a torque will be generated between the sail and the balance wing. The sampan with two people can also be balanced manually. Any bigger boat will definitely capsize."
"And these two crew members must be fatter to hold the boat down."
"So, I added. He put two balance wings on both sides of the boat.”
Zhu Yijun took out two more balance wings and placed them on both sides of the boat. At this point, the model of a hydrofoil sailboat was completely completed. Zhu Yijun Put the model in your hand into the water again and turn on the air vent.
A boat with two horizontal balance wings, one vertical balance wing, and a hard sail sped out on the water, and an incredible scene appeared in front of everyone.
“It’s floating!” Wan Shihe pointed at the boat and shouted in shock: “The boat is floating, have you seen it? The boat is flying!”
The boat is flying! .
Only the vertical balance wing was still in the water, and the entire hull was floating in the air and moving forward rapidly. Then, under the action of inertia, it hit the wooden plank at the end point hard and fell apart. , floating and sinking in the enclosed glass waterway.
Zhu Yijun turned off the air vent very calmly, nodded and said: "Indeed, it is flying."
"This, this, this, me, me, me..." Wan Shihe pointed at the crushed objects. I looked at the wooden pieces from left to right, with a face full of horror. Is this a Taoist technique passed down from Emperor Zhenwu, or is it some kind of evil technique? How is it possible for a ship to fly and move forward?
Not only Wan Shihe, but also the court officials looked at each other with disbelief on their faces. Is it so miraculous that all things are infinite?
Zhu Yijun then said: "The teacher once said: He will die if he hears the Tao in the morning. Summer insects cannot talk about the ice. Well frogs cannot talk about the sea. Ordinary people cannot talk about the Tao. The greatest fear of people is the unknown. When we When you don't know, you will feel scared and resist naturally. But in fact, if you understand the infinite principle, you will find that it is nothing more than that. "
"Follow me."
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty led a group of civil and military officials to another wind channel that was less than half a foot long, wide and high. There was no water in this wind channel, only a ship model with two horizontal balance wings.
“The Bafang hook is responsible for maintaining balance and keeping the model from moving back and forth, and there is also a hook at the bottom of the ship.” After Zhu Yijun installed all the weight iron sheets, he opened the air vent and started bit by bit. He lowered the number of iron pieces at the bottom of the weight until the ship with horizontal balance wings slowly left the contact surface and floated in the air, then he stopped holding the weight in his hand.
Keep the small plane in a balanced state, suspended in the wind duct.
The incredible and magical scene really appeared in front of everyone.
Zhu Yijun said with emotion: "Why is this happening? Everything starts with the hard sail going against the wind."
"With the support of the bamboo strips, the hard sail becomes When the wind blows over the concave surface, the speed will slow down, and when the wind blows over the convex surface, the speed will speed up. This creates a lifting and pushing force. This is the basis of all the above phenomena. Reason."
"The wooden ball is stable in the current and wind, and the hard sail sails even faster in the headwind. Adding an underwater balance wing will make it faster, and adding a horizontal balance wing will make it faster. Flying on the water is due to the concave and convex surfaces of the hard sail. The wind will increase speed when blowing over the concave surface and slow down when blowing over the convex surface. ”
This is why airplanes fly.
A hydrofoil sailboat can be seen as four wings responsible for balance on the boat. Even so, it is only a small sailboat that sails very fast. It cannot be made into a large ship made of hundreds or even thousands of materials. Big ships and small boats are completely different. Different, the boats and models are completely different.
Zhu Yijun said with emotion: "Dear ministers, I know this and the reason for it, but I still don't know its necessity. What is the reason for this magical phenomenon of concave and convex surfaces? How do the concave and convex surfaces bend? , can we obtain greater lifting force under the same conditions? I still don’t know what magical application this concave and convex surface has.”
“Who can explain it to me?”
No one answered. The courtiers were still studying the problem of the concave and convex surfaces. The emperor asked what would happen after knowing the reason. Who can explain clearly?
It was also the first time that they knew about the magic of the concave and convex surface of the hard sail.
Seeing that no one responded, Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Send this hydrofoil sailboat to Songjiang Shipyard and let them try to build it. If there is really a hydrofoil sailboat, it can be built like this Speedy sailing, not to mention transporting goods, is also excellent for delivering news.”
“The road is long and far away, and I will search up and down. I would like to send you this sentence to encourage you.”
The courtiers left the side hall of the Wenhua Palace with questions in their heads. They were not confused at forty and knew destiny at fifty. The little emperor punched everyone in the face with a well-practiced iron fist. On top of the steel seal of thought, the infinite principles of the world can actually hold so many mysteries.
Zhu Yijun held the model of the hydrofoil sailboat in his hand, looked at Zhu Zaiyu and said, "Uncle Emperor, can you solve these doubts for me?"
"I...try my best." Zhu Zaiyu was under great pressure for a while. After Kuangsheng arrived in the capital, he really couldn't get mad. This little emperor who did not do his job always asked many questions that made people scratch their bald heads and could not answer them.
