Vol 2 Chapter 1139: Good scolding (three shifts)

The monarch and his ministers left without joy!
Soon, Liu Zhao gained a reputation as a prodigal son.
The people are talking about the emperor's waste of money, not treating money as money, it is not an exaggeration to call it a faint king.
It can be said that Liu Zhao was the most controversial emperor during the two hundred years of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He has the courage to forge ahead, expand the territory, improve people's livelihood, reduce taxes, reduce corvee, prosper business, run free schools, and strengthen the army.
Waiting for a series of measures, called Mingjun, absolutely qualified.
At the same time, he prospered prisons, chased courts, destroyed the ancestral system, changed traditions, and deprived the gentry of the system of exemption from taxes and servitudes. Now he is still learning to lose the family...
It is not an exaggeration to call him faint king.
Xiaomin lacks knowledge and is easily incited by scholars.
There have been rumors about the current His Majesty being a prodigal among the small people.
The Xiaomin in the capital is the calmest Xiaomin in the world.
Over the years, after being brainwashed by newspapers, a slightly sober head came out.
Learned a truth, nothing can be heard from one side.
as predicted.
Not long after, "The Great Zhou Life Show" and "Shanhe College Newspaper" simultaneously published "anonymous" articles.
The article analyzes the necessity of road construction from the aspects of history, economy, military, people's livelihood, geographical pattern, future influence, etc.
Is it necessary to build roads?
necessary!
Throughout the dynasties, they were always forced to defend against the invasion of foreign races in the north, and only a few times chose to attack.
Because in the past dynasties, in the north, outside the northwest border, there was no preparation. Not to mention effective defensive measures. This
Once the war started, the foreign soldiers went south and drove straight into the Central Plains.
The loss, the number of people killed and injured, is several times the cost of road construction, dozens of times, hundreds of times.
Now we cannot ignore history and the aggressiveness of foreign races just because there is no war in the northwest.
Anyone with a brain and foresight should understand that they should make arrangements early when there is no war.
Road building is part of the overall situation.
What are you talking about without letting the Ministry of Households pay a penny?
"Anonymous" does not forget all the courtiers at the end of the article, all of them are short-sighted.
Only one acre of land in front of you can be seen.
Such a person, although not a corrupt official or evil official, is definitely a stupid official who has harmed a century.
The previous dynasties were destroyed in the hands of these short-sighted officials.
All officials treated their heads for headaches and treated their feet for aches.
As everyone knows, the body has become ill.
I don't think about taking strong medicine to get rid of the root of the disease, but I just want to let it go and spend the term of office.
Isn't this stupid official?
Generations of stupid officials dragged the dynasty down, and they still have the face to blame those who turned the tide.
I don't know who gave them the face.
Could he be born with a big face?
Once the article was published, it caused a sensation in the city.
Businessmen from other places also rushed to buy newspapers and periodicals and sent them to their hometowns.
The "anonymous" article was really sharp and mean. What's more, he scolded all courtiers and officials from all over the world.
Is this an enemy of the officialdom of the world?
"I don't know the origin of this'anonymous'. Calling the official of the world a stupid official, I am not afraid to offend the official of the world, is it a lady in the palace?"
"This style of writing is not the same!"
"Could it be that you have seen the article about the Queen Empress?"
"Occasionally I have the honor to read it. Empress Empress's article is magnificent, but it can't be called sharp and vicious. This article, at first glance, was written by a veteran, maybe it is a certain newspaper staff we are familiar with, just changed a pen name. "
"The pen name is an anonymous, obviously to hide the identity."
"This'anonymous' has also posted an article before, and it seems to have a deep understanding of the Northwest and history. The article is as sharp as ever. Only this time, in addition to sharp, there is a hearty and swearing heart."
Compared with the content of the article and the group of officials who were scolded, everyone seemed to be more curious about the identity of the "anonymous".
What kind of person is curious to have the courage to scold all the officials in the world in an article.
It's really awesome!
Someone asked Huang Qubing to find out.
Huang Qubing was naturally pretending to be stupid.
Does he dare to tell the truth?
Of course not!
His Royal Highness Qi, the next emperor is definitely the next emperor. How dare he expose the pen name of the next emperor?
...
When the newspaper was delivered to the palace, Liu Zhao patted the table and laughed.
"Good scolding! These officials just owe scolding."
Liu Zhao ran to the Chang'an Palace excitedly and shared his feelings with Gu Jiu.
There are a bunch of drawings on Gu Jiu's desk.
There are lines on the drawings that most people can't understand.
Liu Zhao was instantly attracted.
He leaned forward and asked curiously, "What is this?"
Gu Jiu said softly: "This is a draft design for the self-ringing bell."
"What is the bell ringing?"
An unfamiliar word poured into Liu Zhao's ears.
Gu Jiu said: "It's just a clock that can read the time and tell the time. It's very heavy."
"A clock that can look at the time? Is there such a thing? This is a clock drawing? Has it been made?"
"It hasn't been made yet. The technical difficulties will not be overcome within a day. The sketch in my hand is a sketch sent by Renqiu. The Polytechnic Institute already has preliminary ideas for the design of clocks and watches. Try to make one out."
Liu Zhao sighed and sighed, "I really want to see what you said about a clock that can tell the time. This drawing looks very complicated! Does the queen understand?"
Gu Jiu shook his head, "I don't fully understand! I'm trying to understand the content on the drawing."
"What is Renqiu doing to give you drawings?"
Gu Jiu said softly: "I gave him a little suggestion. You can try to divide the twelve o'clock in a day into twenty-four hours. The clock can be designed as a circle and divided into twelve scales. One rotation is six. One hour, twelve hours. Two turns are one day. There is also the issue of circularity, which is very troublesome!"
Gu Jiu didn't know much, so he couldn't discuss this topic in depth.
She also said: "In order to make a clock, Ren Qiu collected the most powerful group of people in the world and formed a team. The youngest was also here just now. He said that he wanted to step down as an errand for the Audit Department and wanted to go to the Polytechnic , Join the team. He also said that with his skill level, he can definitely help. The purpose of Ren Qiu's sending of this drawing is also hope that I can agree to the youngest to go to the Polytechnic Institute to help and formally join their team."
"Ren Qiu made a good calculation!" Liu Zhao vomited, "I don't know how he convinced the third child. The third child actually wants to join their team and make watches together."
Gu Jiu said: "Because this team is doing an innovative job, it is very attractive to the third person who likes to study the number of techniques. And most of the audit department's work is done step by step, which is obviously satisfied. The third child's ambition in the number of tricks cannot be ignored."
"You promised the third child?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "I told him that after finishing the last quarter's accounts, he can go to the Polytechnic Institute."
Liu Zhao was very curious, "This polytechnic institute has so few people but burns money every day. What is it doing?"
There are not many students in the polytechnic, so there are only a thousand people.
But it has gathered the most powerful Mohists, miscellaneous masters, masters of various disciplines, and powerful figures in all disciplines of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.
The annual expenditure is three or four times that of the Zhixing Academy next door.
It is simply a gold swallowing beast.
Liu Zhao has always been curious, where did all this money go?
It is also very curious that Gu Jiu has been condoning such a large expenditure.
Give as much money as you want!
The same is true for medical schools, which are also big money-burners.
However, Liu Zhao at least understands the significance and benefits of running a medical school.
The polytechnic college burned so much money, he was really confused.
The sketches of clocks on the table today reveal a corner of the mystery of the Polytechnic Institute for Liu Zhao.
Gu Jiu smiled, "Do you know who Huanyu Steel wants to update its weapons? It depends on the technical support provided by the Polytechnic Institute. Without the technology of the Polytechnic Institute, Huanyu Steel's weapons update project cannot be operated at all."
Liu Zhao blinked, "The Institute of Technology is researching weapon updates?"
"It is not only to study the update of traditional weapons, but more importantly, to develop new weapons, a weapon that can subvert the pattern of war."
Gu Jiu sold it for a while without going into details.
Liu Zhao showed great interest in science and engineering.
"As far as I know, people from polytechnic colleges rarely go out and don't interact with students from other colleges. People outside say that the teachers and students of polytechnic colleges are a bunch of madmen, lunatics."
"To say that they are crazy, I disagree. To say that they are crazy, I agree. They are just keen on research, not so willing to socialize and socialize. The environment of the polytechnic college, unlimited R&D funding, free food, clothing, housing and transportation, completely satisfy their needs Needs. They naturally don’t need to go out of school.

"Sure enough, it is a group of weird people. The youngest ran to the Polytechnic Institute, could it be like this?"
Liu Zhao suddenly became worried.
Gu Jiu smiled, "I told the third child that I must rest for at least two days a month and go back to the palace to accompany us to eat two meals."
Liu Zhao nodded, "It's pretty much the same."
The child is boring and worrying.
Children are too thoughtful, which is equally worrying.
Liu Zhao took out the newspaper, "The boss's curse articles are even more powerful. He has cursed all officials in the world."
Gu Jiu finished reading the article quickly, and said with a smile: "It's very well written! You have the style of your time."
Liu Zhao laughed loudly and triumphantly after hearing this!
"If you have a father, you must have a son. The boss has my six success strengths back then and deserves praise."
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled.
She just casually slapped him, he took it seriously!
