Chapter 674: Orchid Exercise (Part 2)
Zheng Lang looked at the letter and felt feverish, cold and sweating. It was malaria, not a malaria.
Zheng Lang really couldn't explain the malaria, but it was also difficult to deal with malaria. In a short time, Zheng Lang thought of the Battle of Baitengjiang and the later Battle of Guo Kui's southern attack on Jiaozhi. He was all dragged down by this thing.
Zheng Lang's face became ugly. He was hiking around in various prefectures and counties on this hot day, not only to look at the situation in various prefectures and counties, but also to the relevant water conservancy, but also to tell the world that as long as you pay attention to reasonable living habits, even in malaria areas, you will be safe.
Without the threat of malaria, the people no longer regard the South as a fear of their own way, so they can be willing to migrate to the South on a large scale, instead of the thousands of families now. If Guangdong and Guangxi are in a big way, they will have to migrate at least 200,000 households in the next two years. Even 200,000 households are far from enough. If you want to see popularity, at least 2 million to 3 million households will be kept between 10 million and 20 million, and then the 60 million yuan spent will make sense if you spend money.
The pressure of crowded population will be reduced as soon as possible on Fujian Road and Liangzhe Road to Jiangnan West Road.
But if this news spreads, it will be unknown what it will become when it reaches the north. It will be difficult for the 200,000 households to get 20,000 households.
"Malaria," Zheng Lang murmured.
Zhou Qing also took this information to watch it, and his expression was not very good. Di Qing did not hide his military operations from him. If Annon followed the original military plan and waited for Annon to gather a little, Zhao Xun happened to arrange the affairs of Temodao, gathered the army and went west to carry out the final strike against Annon, and then attacked Sanjiangkou and threatened Dali. It was not really annihilation of Dali, but a threat. Moreover, Dali was relied on the Gao family to suppress the Yang family at this time.
.After all, he was the foolish and unruly Duan Suxing, and Gao deposed him and supported Duan Silian to the throne. Many powerful people in the country were dissatisfied. The turbulent situation in Dali determined that Dali would lower his head in the face of the strength of the Song army. He could force Dali to sign some treaties that were beneficial to the Song Dynasty, and at least let Dali restrain his subordinates. He would not accept the repeated rebellion of some tribes in the south of Kuizhou Road. As for Dali itself, Zhou Han was not interested, and Zheng Lang was not interested.
This unexpected situation is extremely bad.
He asked hesitantly: "Mr. Zheng, have you taken some measures?"
"It's not possible to have it. I guess Di Qing chases Anon and the march is fast. You can't do it one by one according to my instructions, so that mosquitoes can bite it. It's not malaria, but malaria. Since the beginning of the special grinding road, it has few people and many poisons, and there are many **somes in many areas, producing a large amount of filthy land, and mosquitoes grow on it. They grow on it and carry more bacteria, and it is easier for people to develop malaria after biting it."
"What are germs?"
"…Zhou Fuzhi. Let me think about it."
After thinking for a while, he first wrote a letter to Zhao Xun, asking him to identify prisoners of war, some of which were deceived by Anon, and those who had repentant repentance, especially the tribes of Wei Zhou and Huang, who were all allowed to go there and do not escort them to the Central Plains. But we should pay attention to balance and not let one surname dominate the dominance, and we should form a situation where the number of four surnames is similar. Because the Song Dynasty supported the Nong clan, the two surnames gradually declined, and these two surnames could be further relaxed.
He wrote another letter to Di Qing, asking him to report the details, and do not move the troops in Keyan, and try to treat the soldiers suffering from malaria. But he should be isolated. The two letters were sent to the West, and then sat down and thought about it. He did not think of Ge Hong's words in "Emergency Preparation for Elbows", but he thought that it seemed that artemisinin was related to ether. It is known that the boiling point of ether is low. Is the boiling point of water high, destroying some components in Artemisia annua, or some chemical reactions with ether.
It is very hard to think about this. It lacks information. Even if I checked from Kuma in my previous life, it is not easy to check. Theory is one thing, but the practice is another. With the mentality of being a dead horse, I first wrote a letter to Shi Heng, so that Shi Heng could transport a batch of sulfuric acid as quickly as possible.
The speed will not be too slow.
There were several official roads from the Song Dynasty to Lingnan, one was a waterway. From Jiangzhou, Shungan River to Jizhou, from Jizhou, it was not a smuggling Yan Road, but took Dagenling Road, also known as Meiguan Ancient Road. It was Zhang Jiuling of the Tang Dynasty who retired and returned to Shaozhou and saw the rugged mountain road of Meiguan Ancient Road. He wrote to Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, who used the slack season to use the civil servants to open a wide ancient road. From Dagenling Road, he went straight to Guangdong and Guangxi. This road is easier to walk, but the itinerary is slow.
There is also a road, from Yingzhou to Tangzhou, Xiangzhou, Jingzhou, Ezhou, Yuezhou, Tanzhou, Hengzhou, and Zheng Lang took the road halfway through the south. When he arrived in Hengzhou, he divided it into two roads, one was to go to Chenzhou, cross Qitianling to Guangzhou, and the other was to go to Yongzhou to Guizhou. This is a post road, also known as the official road.
If Zheng Lang successfully develops Guangdong and Guangxi, there will be no two. There will be seven or eight official roads to choose from. But now there are only two. If you want to be fast, you should choose the dry road in the future. Although the transportation cost will be higher, it is all dry roads. You can use horses throughout the journey, and the speed is more than twice as fast as before.
Document delivery is a delivery shop, because the Song Dynasty raised a large number of soldiers and had to place some veterans to hand over the work of the delivery shop to the military soldiers. Moreover, the delivery shop in the Song Dynasty was both wide and dense, not like the Tang Dynasty, but was centered on the prefecture, but was aimed at the county, and it was radiated in all directions. There was a delivery shop twenty-five miles away. However, the south did not pay much attention to it, and the delivery shop was much smaller in scale. However, many delivery shops were raised on these two main roads, especially on the latter main road. Document delivery was carried by step, including water.
On-site delivery, horse delivery and urgent delivery. The minimum speed of horse delivery cannot be lower than 300 miles a day, not the fastest, but the fastest is urgent delivery. This is a delivery method used to convey tight military situations. Horses are replaced all the way, even horses are replaced, and people are replaced day and night. The speed requirement cannot be lower than 400 to 500 miles a day. If people are replaced and horses are replaced on the main road, it can often reach seven or eight hundred miles. This is how to create the news from Guangdong and Guangxi that will be delivered to the capital in five or six days.
Zheng Lang used the urgent delivery method to allow Shi Heng to transport sulfuric acid to Guizhou at a rapid speed.
Then he wrote a letter to the Hongzhou magistrate, asking the Hongzhou magistrate to immediately arrange Hongzhou craftsmen to burn a batch of medicinal jade, transport it to Guizhou, and painted the style and marked the size, so that it must have some translucent properties. The glass manufacturing process was introduced to China for a long time, but it could not burn the transparency of glass, but it became another craft. Glaze, just like the Chinese cloisonné, became a seven-treasure burner after it arrived in Japan. Some glasses were full of shiny colors, but because they were completely opaque, they could not be used. There were many medicinal jade shops. There were also Hongzhou, so they had to be made clear.
He also sent people to Lingnan to collect a large amount of Artemisia annua.
It just so happens that Artemisia annua in Lingnan is in the flowering season, and the medicinal effect is relatively good. If you want it, you have to move it backwards, preferably until August. However, Artemisia annua in the flowering season can be used. Artemisia annua in Lingnan should be early. If Artemisia annua in different places grows at different times, the Artemisia annua flowering season can actually start in May and end until the end of September. This period is also a period of high incidence of malaria.
I don't know if this method works.
I thought of some other methods and thought it was available, so I sent someone to deliver it to Keyan with a quick foot. Not only were there soldiers, but also his student Sima Guang, Zhang Yu, the future brave general of Hebei. Neither of these two people could make any mistakes.
Even the soldiers, Zheng Lang didn't want them to make mistakes. After several battles, these soldiers became veterans. In the future, they would not fight against Jiaozhi, and they would also march into the Meishan barbarians. These soldiers were the main forces of the battle. It would not work to transfer the imperial guards to the south. They could quickly adapt to the mountains, forests and humid climates in the south?
Zheng Lang had no intention of patrolling. He set out from Hezhou, passed through Zhaozhou, and came to Guizhou.
Before entering the city, I came to the Lijiang River and built an academy here. However, it is different from Juyang Academy and the four major academies of the Song Dynasty later. To be precise, it should be called the Minority College. It absorbed more than 1,100 students, nearly 600 were the sons of the leaders of various tribes, and hundreds of sons of martyrs and about 100 local children of Guizhou. Barbarians of various races accounted for more than 90%.
After its establishment, Yu Jing felt that there were too many people.
Zheng Lang said: "If it weren't for the financial resources and teaching staff, I wish I could have recruited all the children of barbarians into school together, then in just twenty years, there would be no more barbarians and Han people in the south."
Yu Jing heard the last sentence and said nothing.
Its main function is to make Guangdong and Guangxi Chinese. Zheng Lang also wrote a memorial for this. After the Xianbei people went south, there was a Huyin in the north. Since the Northern Wei Dynasty took the initiative to become the Xianbei people, is there a Huyin in the Central Plains now? In fact, many people in the north have the blood of the Xianbei people, and even Zhao Kuangyin's ancestors may have been associated with the Xianbei people. But was there any ethnic conflicts in the north later?
It is a family, so there is no contradiction.
This is what Zheng Lang had to do in the south. Including clothing, the first thing he did to school was to wear the clothes of a Confucian scholar in the Han Dynasty. The barbarians did not reject this, but on the contrary, they admired it very much. After entering school, they taught the classics and arithmetics, while teaching them the living habits of the Han people.
The first batch of barbarians who entered the school will be highly valued one after another. Those who can succeed in the imperial examination will not succeed in the imperial examination. As long as they are not too clumsy, too cruel, or have other bad and serious behaviors, they will be placed one by one in each prefecture and county, allowing them to serve as grassroots officials, and let the barbarians take the initiative to participate in the affairs of Guangdong and Guangxi, and further integrate. However, now they must study for one or two years, know some classics, and be able to calculate and write.
Zheng Lang allocated another 80,000 yuan, which is a huge number. If it is in Beijing, expensive prices may not be a big deal. In Guizhou, 80,000 yuan is considered an astronomical number. With 80,000 yuan, a huge academy was built, with thousands of dormitories, one hundred classrooms, a library, more than two hundred staff dormitories, a large playground of thousands of square meters, a large garden of hundreds of square meters, an artificial lake covered with stones, and a small island in the lake. There is a pavilion on the island. The buildings and scenery are all several times better than Juyang Academy.
The academy was not built until the end of April.
The only thing that made Zheng Lang dissatisfied was the teacher issue. He spent a lot of money to invite only 200 or more students who did not pass the Jinshi. No famous scholar was invited. There was no way. Zheng Lang wrote a letter to Yu Jing on Guangdong South Road. Brother, if you feel a little wronged, you should teach these students as well. What should I do? You have the best knowledge in Guizhou and are from Shaozhou. Everyone will not reject you.
Seeing Zheng Lang coming, teachers and students greeted each other.
Zheng Lang asked everyone to join in the playground, and asked the guards to carry his guqin, singing while playing the guitar: "
The orchid is so beautiful that it smells like its fragrance. If you don’t pick it, you will be so hurtful to the orchid.
What is the same as today's rotation? I go all the way, day by year.
The snow and frost are traded, and the shepherd and wheat are lush. If the child is not hurt, I will not be able to accept it.
The shepherd's wheat is lush and the shepherd's wheat is present. The wounds of a gentleman are the guardians."
This was written by Han Yu, and it was a fan-version of Confucius' "Youlan Cao", but this fan-version is better than the original version in literary attainments. Although the author of the original version is Confucius Shengren. Zheng Lang's voice is not very beautiful, but the song "Youlan Cao" is very ethereal, which makes people feel like the sound of nature.
This song expresses his heart and resonates with Zheng Lang.
Zhou Heng listened to Zheng Lang's piano and Zheng Lang's singing. Suddenly, he finally understood Zheng Lang's inner world at this moment.
He silently looked at Zheng Lang on the stage and said, "Xingzhi, if you are shepherd's wheat, you will be the most dazzling plant in this world."
Yu Jing looked at Zhou Yan, who was deeply moved, and did not speak out. He had disagreements with Zheng Lang's political views, but he could not deny Zheng Lang's virtue. However, he thought to himself, Zheng Xingzhi, how can you resolve the crisis in Keyan this time?
After singing, Zheng Lang said, "This four-character ancient poem was written by Han Yu of the Tang Dynasty. He had great achievements when he knew Chaozhou. You southerners missed him very much. Today, I sang it not to let you mourn him, but to understand its meaning. Learning, not only needs to learn and ask, but also learn how to be a human being and a gentleman. As beautiful as orchids, like buckwheat, you can lively and shine with dazzling brilliance. When I settle down, I will come to teach you often. Today I will tell you a chapter on how to be a human being in the Analects of Confucius. The first sentence is a paragraph in "Yongye". People are born straight and they are lucky.
And avoid. People must be upright. Only integrity can be upright and upright. People around us who are not upright can survive. That is just because of luck. This kind of luck will not last long. The same is true for learning. There is no clever way, only two words, hard work. There is a way to diligence in the mountain of books, and the sea of knowledge is endless. The learned ministers of the day, whether Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu, or others, all of them studied hard, which is why they achieved today. Even if I am a little successful, I studied hard for many years when I was young, and even stayed away for several years. So far, I dare not put down my books, and I don’t put down my books, for fear of leaving my knowledge..."
All the way, he talks about benevolence, virtue, sermon, toughness, perseverance, wood, silence, respect, lenient, trustworthy, agile, and polite, and polite.
It was not until dusk that Zheng Lang announced that everyone would disperse with a hoarse voice.
Zheng Lang attaches great importance to how to be a human being. He is not good at being a human being. The better his knowledge is, the greater the harm. For example, Cai Jing, Qin Hui, and Li Linfu.
In the midst of onlookers and looking up, Zheng Lang took Zhou Heng and Guizhou officials who had arrived and heard the news left the academy.
Walking on the road, Yu Jing whispered: "Xingzhi, I just received information from General Di that more than 700 soldiers had died in Keyan."
A few days later, the entire army was infected with malaria and it was normal for more than 700 people to die. Zheng Lang glanced at Yu Jing. Because Di Qing killed Chen Shu and other 32 generals, Yu Jing felt somewhat hatred towards Di Qing. Ke Yan was threatened by malaria, and I don’t know what Yu Jing was feeling.
After looking at it, he couldn't see any expression of Yu Jing. Zheng Lang thought that after the failure of the Qingli New Deal, these gentlemen became adults.
He asked, "Are Zhang Yu and Sima Guang safe?"
