Chapter 483 Dig the pit and then go up

The drizzle was drizzling, and Kaifeng Prefecture entered a rainy season.

In the early morning, rain and mist cover Kaifeng Mansion. From a distance, it was confused, as if everything was shrouded in smoke. I could only vaguely see the long streets, traffic and pedestrians. It was the busiest time of the year. Even the misty rain and mist could not stop people's enthusiasm for creation and life.

Wu Haogu has been going to the big study room of the Gonghe Building with Pan Qiaolian every day to "work" and now it is the "headquarters building" of the Gonghe Building, the Gonghe Building Headquarters Store, the Wanjia Real Estate Headquarters Store, the Jiehe Chamber of Commerce Kaifeng Branch, and the Huakui Bookstore Headquarters Store are all located in this four-story "high-rise building".

Therefore, Wu Haogu and Pan Qiaolian came here to work mainly to facilitate meetings and listen to reports from subordinates, and at the same time arranged business plans for the Republican Bank and subordinates' business in the summer, autumn and winter seasons of the first year of Jingguo in Zhongzhong.

The first task is of course to build a house! The 420 houses have been sold, and the deposit has been received by 1.9 million yuan. The time for delivery has been set. If you can't hand over the house, Wu Haogu and the Republic will have trouble.

In addition, the quality of the house cannot be bad. If it is the same as the property of the store and house business, then the brand will be overturned.

Moreover, maybe he will be impeached by the censor who has nothing to do after having enough food!

Of course, it is not difficult for the Republicans to build a house. Because this is not the first time that the Republicans have built a house, even the four-story "high-rise" Republicans were built before. What's the difficulty of building a three-story and two-story house now?

Wu Haogu also became more scheming and asked Song Huizong to make the decree of Li Jie, who was worried at home, to be the "supervisor" to check the house built by the creator who contracted the Wanjia Real Estate Project. Li Jie must be satisfied before he can pass the test.

In fact, Li Jie doesn't really need to be accustomed to the point. When people hear the name of this master of creation, they dare not take the initiative to cut corners.

The second task was to build the Jiehe Daxiangguo Temple Interpretation Library. This warehouse was built with an order! Although it was named Daxiangguo Temple, in fact, only 20% of the shares belonged to Jiehe Daxiangguo Temple, and the remaining shares belonged to the Republic Store, Pan Family Gold, Silver, Silk and Silk Store, Yunwu Tea Store and Gao Qiu.

As for the actual operation of the warehouse, the Pan family’s gold, silver, silk and silk shop sent someone to the responsibility.

The third task is to arrange the publication plan of the album and magazine. The album is easy to arrange, after all, it will be suspended until mid-April, and some time will be to draw and sketch.

The magazine has some problems. It has been a year since the imperial examination competition in Yuanfu for the third year, and people's enthusiasm for the imperial examination has decreased. Therefore, after entering the first year of Jianzhong Jingguo, the sales of magazines began to decline, and the tricks were not as easy as before.

So Wu Haogu was preparing to make some changes and add some "martial arts" and his own private goods to this "scholar" magazine. In fact, scholars of the Song Dynasty liked to talk about war on paper, and content such as "martial arts" should be popular.

Moreover, Wu Haogu also found two new authors for this magazine, one is Cheng Yi's disciple, Wu Haowen's teacher, Hou Zi Hou Zhongliang. The other is Zhao Mingcheng, the son of the Censor Zhao Tingzhi, who is Li Qingzhao's fiancé. Zhao Mingcheng and Li Qingzhao have been engaged long ago. The wedding was originally planned to officially start in two months, but they encountered the national funeral. So a lover could only bear it temporarily...

"Teacher Sheng, Defu, please ask both of you."

On the observation deck on the fourth floor of the Republic Building, Wu Haoguzheng spoke to the two main editors of the magazine, "I only decided a few that cannot be written. One is that I cannot disclose the secrets of the court; the other is that I cannot attack the previous dynasty's briefings and revising; the third is that I cannot claim to give up my territory."

"Can't you attack Shaoshu and Genghua?" Zhao Mingcheng shook a folding fan lightly, "Is it because of Jianzhong Jingguo?"

Zhao Mingcheng's father and Wu Haogu's mentor Su Dongpo are political enemies, but this does not prevent Zhao Mingcheng and Wu Haogu from having a good relationship with Zhao Mingcheng's fiancée Li Qingzhao is also the daughter of Li Gefei, one of the four scholars after the Su family!

Moreover, Zhao Mingcheng and Li Qingzhao were edited by Wu Haogula, and they became familiar with Zhao Ji. From a certain perspective, they have already separated from the old and new parties and are figures of the "Imperial Party".

"It's to not let this book die!" Wu Haogu held the railing of the observation deck with his hand and looked at Kaifeng Prefecture in the distance. "Although I am quite trusted by Your Majesty, I still can't stand the crime of being unreasonable.

Now as long as the Shaoshu and Reconstruction are not involved, this book is always the paradise of the new and old parties, as well as various schools of thought. If it is gone, wouldn’t everyone have no place to publish their opinions?”

Hou Zhongliang stroked his beard. Although he did not agree with Wu Haogu's proposal, he still respected Wu Haogu very much. He regarded Wu Haogu as an "evil Confucian" and "shang Confucian" who could discuss Taoism with great Confucianism.

"You can't write about Chongdao, Shaoshu or Genghua, so how can you write about it?" Hou Zhongliang asked.

Wu Haogu Yixiao: "Just write about military strategy! Wang Jinggong's new policy is to enrich the country and strengthen the army. The Qingli new policy chaired by Prince Fan Wenzheng also needs to enrich the country and strengthen the army... Now let's not talk about enriching the country, let's talk about the method of strengthening the army!"

In fact, the main difference between the old and new parties is to "rich the country", that is, how to make money and how to suppress businessmen and powerful people. It can still be discussed as to how to "strengthen the army".

Moreover, Song Huizong himself had no direction for how to strengthen the army, not only Song Huizong, but also Song Zhezong and Song Shenzong did not know how to strengthen the army. They only had one concept of prosperity and strength, and they mistakenly thought that if they were rich, they would definitely be strong.

"Strong soldiers?" Hou Zhongliang was also a little excited when he heard these two words, "Brother Chongdao, listen to the truth, you have some experience in the way of strengthening soldiers!"

"Is that true?" Zhao Mingcheng also said, "Brother Chongdao still understands military tactics? Why not say it and listen."

Wu Haogu smiled, "What's the point of talking about military tactics? In my opinion, it's all false to talk about military affairs on paper."

"You can't say that, right?" Zhao Mingcheng frowned, "Fan Wenzheng, Han Zhongxian, and the current Tongzhi Privy Council member Zhang Xueshi, aren't they all scholars who command soldiers and make enemy chiefs frightened?"

Wu Haogu just smiled, it would be fine if Zhang Feng, but Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi can make Li Yuanhao frightened?

"Now everyone is arguing about the issue of military system," Wu Haogu patted the railings. "I think it's better to have a soldier, a soldier recruit, a knight, a warrior, which kind of soldier is better."

"practice?"

Both Hou Zhongliang and Zhao Mingcheng didn't understand at all.

"Yes!" Wu Haogu smiled and said, "There is no saying that it is a mule or a horse, is it taken out for a walk? This is practice. If you don't walk, who knows whether this horse and a mule are good or bad. I think it's the same when used elsewhere. I think it's good to beat the iron or not. If you hit the iron well, you'll know if it's sword and armor.

Is this martial arts good? Isn’t it clear if you go to a competition? Do you have to compare it with a real person?

This is practice, and practice is the criterion for testing the authenticity and quality of the fault!"

"Practice is the criterion for testing the authenticity and quality?" Hou Zhongliang heard Wu Haogu's "fallacies" again!

Can practice test the authenticity of the truth? Whether the way of Confucius and Mencius is successful still needs practice to test it? Where did you put the way of Confucius and Mencius and the words of the saints?

"Can the military system be tested by practice?"

When Hou Zhongliang realized something was wrong, Zhao Mingcheng had not yet realized that his Confucianism could not be compared with Hou Zhongliang, and the problem was not that far-reaching, so he asked about the possibility of testing the military system.

"Yes." Wu Haogu smiled, "Isn't it all practice to raise knights in the manor and select martial soldiers with real estate? The Military Academy was also practiced before. Now many people think that the military system is very good, and I think it can also be arranged for practice."

"How should the soldiers in the palace practice?"

"There are 400 military states in the Song Dynasty," Wuhao Ancient Road, "You can definitely take out a military state to test the military state."

In fact, Wu Haogu didn't think that the military soldiers could be implemented in the Song Dynasty, but he did not reject the experiment of reviving the military soldiers system that could not be successful around Kaifeng Prefecture. However, in those military states with underdeveloped industry and commerce, it would be possible that they would be successful if they really had to work hard to spend money.

For example, Han Zhongyan's hometown, Xiangzhou, is a good experimental base. Isn't Yue Fei, who is loyal to the country, a native of Xiangzhou? Many generals in the Yue family army were from Xiangzhou, which means that Xiangzhou still had some military foundation in the late Northern Song Dynasty. If several Zhechong Prefectures could be established in Xiangzhou, thousands of elite prefectures would always be mobilized in the future. Isn't it another force to fight against the Jin Dynasty?

"That's right." Zhao Mingcheng didn't know that he had been trapped by Wu Haogula. "Can you really try it... Is it necessary to write an article in a magazine to propose?"

"You can discuss it with everyone," said Wu Haogu, "You can open up some pages and make a column for everyone to discuss the truth, or it can be called "discussing the truth on paper", which is the opinions on the "war system practice" mentioned above.

Brother Master, what do you think?"

"It is right to discuss the truth on paper," said Hou Zhongliang. "I don't agree with the truth on practice. There are many things that cannot be practiced in the world, such as morality and laws, can they be tested with practice?"

Sure enough, he can't deceive the Marquis! In fact, his way of maintaining the laws of nature and destroying human desires was tested by later practice and proved that it was not effective... But there is no need to argue with him at the moment.
