Live broadcast: Ancient people accompany me to make up lessons

[Huang Daopo not only improved the lives of people in Wunijing and neighboring areas, but also had a profound impact on the economic prosperity of rural and urban areas in Jiangnan during the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Since Huang Daopo introduced advanced cotton textile technology, Songjiang Prefecture and the entire Yangtze River Delta region have become my country's famous cotton planting base and cotton textile center.

As a result, three different levels of cotton textile production and trade centers were born. After that, these "centers" together formed the preliminary outline of our current Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone.

Huang Daopo spread and developed the cotton planting and cotton textile industry in Shanghai, changed the production structure in parts of southern Jiangsu during the Yuan and Ming dynasties, developed the industrial economy, and promoted the development of the handmade cotton textile industry in Jiangnan and China.

The foreigner Joseph Needham also said this in his book "History of Chinese Science and Technology": She (Huang Daopo) was an outstanding cotton textile technology innovator in the 13th century, and her revolution in the history of cotton textile should be highly evaluated. ]

Wait, there is a book?

The person who was very greedy for the things in the anchor's study quickly turned his head and recalled whether the anchor had this book on his bookshelf.

Lu Bing asked the child next to him: "Does the anchor have this book in his study?"

He came here in a hurry, but he is not in a hurry when he returns. He can ride his horse normally and return to the capital tomorrow. Along the way, Lu Bing also knew how powerful Zhang Baigui was, and the name of a child prodigy really matched him.

Zhang Baigui shook his head and said firmly: "The anchor does not have this book at home."

Lu Bing believed it because this kid had a photographic memory.

People in the Ming and Qing Dynasties recognized this final conclusion. The Jiangnan side had a developed economy and high urbanization.

But what is the Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone? On the aerial map you released, so many cities are too prosperous, right?

They don’t know about Shanghai, but Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Taicang are completely different from our current cities. They look much more prosperous than the cities where the anchors live.

There are so many high-rise buildings with bright lights at night. Will Jiangnan still be so wealthy hundreds of years later?

In the dynasties from the Northern Song Dynasty onward, everyone's impression of the most prosperous city in the southeast was Yangzhou. Everyone was not very accustomed to the prosperity of the cities around the mouth of the Yangtze River.

Having said that, Jiangnan is becoming more and more prosperous, but what about the Central Plains area? How is the Central Plains region doing after being in the hands of foreigners for so long?

Guangjun, the lucky viewer on the 16th, is from Songjiang. He also has two looms at home and uses the methods and tools taught by Grandma Huang to weave cloth.

She has never been to school. There will be a third prince in the market story, but there will be no serious history. It wasn't Tianmu who said it, but she didn't know that people didn't wear cotton in the past.

After thinking about it, she shared her experience in growing cotton at home. This was no secret to the Songjiang people, but it should be very useful to people who had never grown cotton before.

Ten pounds of cotton per piece of cloth, you need to pay attention to this and that when spinning and weaving...

After sharing her planting experience and precautions, she sighed: "It's great. You anchors also remember Granny Huang."

[Xiao Xiao put all her notes in bold. Hearing what she said next, he nodded in affirmation.

"Huang Daopo is also a must-learn figure in our history books."

She entered the keywords "Huang Daopo commemoration" and found many entries.

In the Songjiang area, which is today's Shanghai area, there are more than ten ancestral halls, temples, halls, and buildings related to Huang Daopo.

There is Huang Daopo Park at No. 700 Xumei Road, Huajing Town, Xuhui District, Shanghai. In the center of the park is Huang Daopo's tomb, and on the east side is Huang Daopo Memorial Hall. The memorial hall is adjacent to the quiet and simple Huang Daopo Tomb.

The building area of ​​the memorial hall is about 300 square meters. When you step into the courtyard, you will see the 2.2-meter-high statue of Huang Daopo. On the doorpost are written the couplets "Weaving cloud clothes with two hands, traveling through the universe in one shuttle" and "Clothes and quilts for the world". ".

The memorial hall has three exhibition halls. The main exhibition hall displays Huang Daopo's life story and her historical contributions to China's textile industry. The other two exhibition halls display textile tools and cotton textiles from different periods.

In the textile tools exhibition hall, there are more than 30 elastic machines, spinning machines and looms of different styles.

In the cotton textiles exhibition hall, there are more than 300 pieces of cotton homespun, blue calico, cotton woven clothes and pants, aprons, bellybands, bed sheets and quilt covers of various colors, many of which are treasures preserved from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

In 1957, it was renovated by the People's Committee of Shanghai County, Jiangsu Province. The tomb was raised, stone benches were set up for tables, and stone monuments were engraved and erected. By 1984, Huang Daopo's tomb was listed as a national cultural relic protection unit. Then in 1987, it was listed as a cultural relic protection unit in Shanghai. In 1996, it was once again listed as a patriotic education base in Xuhui District.

1980年11月20日，我国邮电部发行《中国古代科学家（第三组）》纪念邮票一套，共4枚。其中第4枚就是为元代女纺织技术专家黄道婆。

Huang Daopo is the first ancient female scientist to be shown on a postage stamp of New China. The commemorative stamp has a face value of 60 cents and a total circulation of 100 million. Then there is the Huang Daopo commemorative silver coin.

In 1989, the People's Bank of China issued the "Sixth Group of Silver Coins Commemorative Coins for Outstanding Chinese Historical Figures".

There are four silver coins in a set, with a face value of 5 yuan. The front design is the national emblem, the country name and the year name. Among them, the character image on the back design of one silver coin is "Huang Dao Po Statue", with a total circulation of 3 coins...]

Parks, ancestral halls, and statues are all what Huang Daopo deserves, and everyone thinks she deserves it. But that commemorative stamp, the commemorative silver coin...

Although I don’t know what the commemorative coin is, it is still a coin.

Engraving portraits on coins not only reflects the value of the precious metal itself, but also shows respect for the person being engraved.

The emperors silently left their envious eyes.

The most they can do is make calendars and engrave year numbers on coins, but they still can't engrave images on money themselves.

I'm so envious that future generations can see her by paying money. They also want this way of commemoration.

But it's a pity that the anchor doesn't say that they know it, and they don't talk about future generations. As long as the dynasty changes, no one will remember them anymore.

Not to mention emperors, even nobles and high-ranking officials, their descendants may not remember them decades later.

People will not remember emperors and generals, but they will not forget Huang Daopo.

Oh, no, except for Zhuge Liang. He also has Wuhou Temple, many people commemorate him, and the anchor can give him things.

There have been too many people in the past dynasties, but there are always people who sneer at it, thinking that it is just a woman who just learned some textile skills and can be passed down to future generations.

It's just that this kind of person can say a word and be greeted by the looks of fools from the people around him.

The whole place was silent, and everyone looked at him with strange eyes, which made the person who said this feel terrified.

He tried to save his face and asked: "Why, what did I say wrong? A mother-in-law is not filial, she is just a mother-in-law who ran away from home!"

An old man who was also carving the image of a female doll with a carving knife sneered: "If you have the ability, don't talk about it here, go to Songjiang Mansion and say this!"

But don’t say it’s from us when the time comes. I feel sorry for the reputation of our state! "

Another lady selling snacks also snorted at him: "Our Ming Dynasty cotton is all woven using the methods taught by Granny Huang. If you dislike it, take off the cotton on your body right now!"

People around me who were too lazy to talk seemed to be justified.

"Take it off. If you look down on others, then don't wear cotton made by others!"

"If you don't like it, just take it off, take it off!"

Not everyone is like that man, able to pick up a bowl and eat rice while still cursing. They are poor and have not read many books, but they are not a mixed bag of people who do not distinguish between right and wrong.

Whoever is really kind to himself will have his own measure.

What Huang Daopo brought was an improvement in the cotton textile industry that no longer produced cotton cloth. Cotton is not silk, this is clothes that ordinary people can wear.

Songjiang people will never forget Huang Daopo's kindness. Those of them who didn't know about Huang Daopo now know about it and will not forget Huang Daopo.

It was the first time that the man was so angry at the crowd. He was frightened and said bravely: "Why should I take off the clothes made by my wife?"

But he didn't dare to stay on the street any longer, so he walked away in despair.

Shi Tongling during the Zhengde period asked curiously: "Anchor, what are stamps?"

[She remembered that she also had a set of stamps, given to her by her grandpa.

He rummaged around in the study and found a book of stamps that had been packaged and sealed, and then took out an envelope.

"This is what stamps are. If we send a letter, the regional administrative code must be filled in on the grid of these envelopes. This grid is where stamps are affixed, and then the address is written or placed in the mailbox, and then taken directly to the post office.

Stamps all have a face value, and stamps of different face values ​​are affixed to different areas where the letter is sent.

Although we all communicate by phone and the Internet now, there are still many stamp enthusiasts who like to collect stamps. This is philately.

The set I have is "Selected Works of Bada Shanren", special stamps issued by the Post Office in 02 to promote the long and splendid painting art of the Chinese nation. ”]

Everyone understands, this stamp has a face value, so you must buy it, which is equivalent to a payment method for the imperial inn.

Although the stamps are small, the ink paintings on them are full of interest, and everyone who came to the Qing Dynasty looked at them with gusto.

Jiajing, who had no idea who Bada Shanren was, raised his eyes and took a look. Well, his skills were not bad, his calligraphy was better than his painting, but he looked very cold and arrogant.

Everyone in the Kangxi era knew who Bada Shanren was, and people who had never seen his works looked up. This was a good opportunity to appreciate it up close.

Some collectors of Zhu Da's works were surprised when they saw the paintings on the stamps, and hurried to the study to find their own paintings. They were relieved and happy at the same time.

I didn't receive Tang Bohu's paintings, but I did get Bada Shanren's paintings, which are all stamped. I think it will be famous in later generations and be passed down to future generations. It's not a loss!

Wei Yinran, the lucky viewer on the 18th, was from Suzhou and Hangzhou during the Jiajing period. When he looked at the urban agglomerations as large as Suzhou and Hangzhou in later generations, he thought about agriculture.

They are accustomed to growing rice as their staple food. Emperor Hongwu promoted cotton cultivation. Farmers with 5 to 10 acres of fields at home should plant half an acre of mulberry, half an acre of hemp, and half an acre of cotton.

With so many people in later generations, there is no need to worry about food, but there doesn’t seem to be much land to grow cotton around the Yangtze River!

[After hearing his question, Xiao Xiao explained: "The economy over there is very developed now, and most of them are secondary and tertiary industries.

And as for cotton, the main growing area now is Xinjiang, where the lighting conditions are good, the long-staple cotton produced there is of good quality and the yield is high. "

I said that I was not convinced, so I found the data a little.

In 49, Xinjiang's cotton output was 5100 tons, accounting for only 44.4% of the country's total output (1.1 tons).

In 2021, Xinjiang's cotton output reached 512.9 million tons, accounting for approximately 87% of domestic production and approximately 67% of domestic consumption. 】

How many thousands of tons?

Ten kilograms of cotton can weave one piece of cloth, one ton is two thousand kilograms, and more than five million tons is...

Looking at the place on the map of later generations, the emperors who were not here became jealous.

High-quality fruits and the like. In ancient times when transportation was inconvenient, no one would go there for such things. Even if they knew that this was the territory of future generations, they would not be very interested.

It's big and full of sand, so the cost of management is too high and not cost-effective.

But look at this cotton yield.

Let alone raising sheep and horses, this barren land that was uneconomical to rule in the past is clearly a treasure!

It’s not that the people of the Tang Dynasty didn’t have cotton cloth, it’s just that most of the cotton textiles came from the Western Regions, and they didn’t produce much in their own country.

Again, it’s not cost-effective, because farmers have no one to cultivate silk, and nobles prefer silk.

But look at the functions of cotton. It can spin yarn and weave cloth, and it can also be used as stuffing to keep out the cold. Cotton clothes and quilts are all good things. People who were not interested in that place before could not help but become interested.

How about planting cotton?

Liu Che looked at the map of later generations, then looked at the map of the current Han Dynasty, and took a deep breath.

In the past, it was to expel the Xiongnu and eliminate the potential threats from the Han Dynasty. But now, it is necessary to open the road to Central Asia, search for various varieties of crops there, and find a way to get a piece of land that can grow cotton. Good place.

Shandong in the Ming and Qing Dynasties: Huh? Aren’t we a major cotton-producing province? How come we have become such a remote cotton-producing place in the northwest in later generations?

Lucky viewer No. 19, Su Chuan, was from Texas during the Kangxi period. He couldn't help but ask: "Anchor, will Shandong not grow cotton much in the future?"

"If you plant it, there will still be people growing cotton here."

Find out the latest Shandong related information and show it to the Shandong seniors.

Shandong is not only the province with the largest "added value of the primary industry and the added value of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery" in the country, but also the province with the highest "total output value of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery" in the country.

The output of agricultural products such as grain, cotton, oil crops, vegetables, fruits, pork, beef, mutton, poultry, eggs, milk, and aquatic products has consistently ranked among the top 10 in the country all year round. 】

Suchuan was relieved. They were still growing cotton in Shandong. It was just that Xinjiang was too big and had too much sunlight, so the output was just unparalleled. Shandong's local cotton industry did not decline.

The last lucky viewer, Niu Yi, didn't ask any questions, just wanted to watch the live broadcast of Starry Sky.

He loved the stars and the sight of those planets gave him peace of mind.

[It’s not going to be broadcast live anyway, so Xiaoxiao will just let him hang there and shut down the system after an hour.

"That's it for today's live broadcast during the day. We'll see you in the evening."]
