Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 41 The Keyboard Man

"It's easy to say, but it can be hard to do!"

Hearing Liu Weichao's words, Emperor Chongzhen immediately took over the topic and said, "It's okay, just say it first, and as for doing it, I will try my best to do it!"

He really thought so, after all, everything about Liu Weichao's era made him very envious!

At this time, Liu Weichao heard what he said, so he satisfied his request and said: "First, you have to change the content of your imperial examinations, and guide everyone to read scientific and technological knowledge, such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc. Don’t just read your Four Books and Five Classics!”

Speaking of this, he remembered that there was a discussion about this in online novels, and he thought it made sense, so he shared it with Emperor Chongzhen: "It can be said that the Four Books and Five Classics are ideological works, and this can also be included. However, science Knowledge, which is a subject that explores nature and is used by human beings, is very practical, and it should be the knowledge we must master! A simple example!"

Speaking of this, he reminded Emperor Chongzhen: "Just tell me the glass formula I gave you. If you understand natural science, then you know why things like stones turn into transparent glass after high temperature. Knowing the principle, you You can also study all kinds of glass. For example, bullets are lead bullets, arrows and so on, glass that can’t go through, and glass that won’t hurt people if the glass is broken. Are you right?”

"Is this the principle of teaching to fish?" Emperor Chongzhen immediately said with a little excitement when he heard it, "Know it and then know why, that's right, that's how it should be!"

Liu Weichao nodded, and then said: "There are many more. It can be said that scientific knowledge is to analyze the internal laws of all things, and then let us humans use the laws of all things. It seems that in your era, this kind of knowledge is called investigating things. I think You must pay attention!"

"I value it, I value it, I definitely value it!" Emperor Chongzhen nodded quickly when he heard it. It's fine if he doesn't know about such a magnificent future. Now that he has seen it with his own eyes, he naturally wants it.

When Liu Weichao was talking about glass just now, he thought of something. At this time, he said to Emperor Chongzhen: "By the way, aren't you building a glass factory? You can apply the new concept to this glass factory to see if the effect is good. Will it be different?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen hurriedly asked humbly, "Then what should I do specifically?"

Liu Weichao casually suggested: "First, bind the interests of the glass factory workers, that is, the artisans, with the glass factory and mobilize their enthusiasm for work. This is the application of interests. You can set up incentives and punishments. To formulate these measures based on the principle of gain, specifically, rewards can be given by piece, or dividends can be given directly to shares, etc. In short, there are many methods, and you can definitely think of them, so I won’t go into details!”

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen felt thoughtful!
"In short, you have to make them feel that producing glass is not for you, the emperor, but for themselves. In this way, even if you don't urge them, they must be very active in producing glass."

Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen didn't speak, Liu Weichao's thoughts spread, and he continued to talk with eloquence: "The same principle can also be used in your upcoming formation of a new army..."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen who was thinking about it immediately came back to his senses, and immediately asked, "How to use it?"

Obviously, he cares deeply about military affairs.

"It's the same reason, interests are bound!" Liu Weichao said without thinking, "You have to let them know that the war is not for you, the emperor, but for themselves. In this way, they will naturally fight desperately when they go to the battlefield. If you fight bravely, why worry about being invincible?"

Emperor Chongzhen was obviously a little excited when he heard it, and discussed with Liu Weichao: "Bundling of interests? How to tie it up? Share dividends? But the army doesn't have shares, so rewards are based on military merits? Good punishment is clear..."

Liu Weichao listened to him talking, but did not interrupt.In fact, for Liu Weichao, he has never actually operated these things at all, that is, he is just a keyboard warrior.

Hearing what Emperor Chongzhen said there at this time, he couldn't help but think about it, and felt that what he said just now seemed to be a bit wild.I just talked about it based on the experience of later generations, without considering the basic situation of that era in the late Ming Dynasty.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, I don't want to be the emperor myself, probably such an idea, I can't go wrong!

Thinking about it this way, I just heard Emperor Chongzhen summed up a lot by himself, and then asked his opinion.

Therefore, Liu Weichao immediately replied with a smile: "These measures are of course possible. In short, it is a principle to make them feel that the war is for themselves. If they lose, their own interests will be damaged. If they win, they will be able to fight." I have gained a lot of benefits. I can guide them in defending their homes and the country, solve their worries, and let them know that if the war is won, the world will be peaceful, and their lives will be easier!"

"Okay, okay, I'll remember!" Emperor Chongzhen was obviously more excited, and responded repeatedly.

In the past, military affairs were the affairs of the military generals, and even the logistics were the affairs of the civil servants. Emperor Chongzhen had no idea of ​​his own at all about what they were talking about.But now, regarding military affairs, he felt that he had at least an opinion.

It can be said that Emperor Chongzhen took office temporarily. Facing a mess, he learned from Emperor Taizu and did everything by himself, so it was impossible for him to have much energy to learn and grow.Worrying about a lot of shit every day, being led by the nose by those subordinates.

But now it is different. The chat with Liu Weichao has greatly broadened his horizons, and he has also learned a lot of experience and thoughts summed up by later generations.

The most important thing is that Liu Weichao is not on the same plane as him, and he is someone he can trust very much.Therefore, he will not resist Liu Weichao's words, and even think and accept them involuntarily.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen was so excited that he didn't feel sleepy at all, and said to Liu Weichao with a little emotion: "I really didn't expect that you are younger than me, but you seem to know everything, you are a genius!"

"..." Liu Weichao was a little embarrassed by his praise, and after thinking about it, he replied, "I'm not a genius, I'm just a keyboard warrior!"

"Keyboard man? What is a keyboard man?" Emperor Chongzhen was a little confused when he heard it.

After hearing this, Liu Weichao immediately laughed and said, "In short, the knowledge explosion in my era, most people know a lot. That's it, good night!"
