Wang Pu in the late Ming Dynasty
Chapter 2
Jiangning Weaving Bureau is located at the root of the south wall of
Nanjing, in order to facilitate the transportation of goods and tribute, a canal was specially opened, chiseled through the city wall, the moat is connected with the workshop area of the Weaving Bureau, the moat is connected to the Qinhuai River to the south, and the Yangtze River is the bend, which is very convenient. There is an urn city where the city wall is chiseled through, there are often fishermen on the Yangtze River who have netted fish, and the boat is swung into the urn city to sell, the urn city has become a vegetable market, before the apocalypse, the Nanjing Inspection Department Yamen will set up a card here, check the passing ships, but in recent years, the imperial court has used troops everywhere, the financial situation is stretched, the Nanjing Inspection Department has laid off several times, the manpower is insufficient, so it is simply not checked, the cumbersome official rules are gone, each boat will be released with a copper coin, and the people are happy to do it.
On this day, the craftsman Luo Qingpu came out of the weaving bureau side door, lazily paced to the urn city to buy a fish, inadvertently glimpsed a corner of the wall to reveal a post, but it is a name, the next paragraph indicates that Wang Pu, the son of Wang Wei, the governor of the left capital, and stamped with a scarlet private seal.
Luo Qingpu stumbled, and suddenly became interested, and said in his heart: This Wang Pu is so damn bold, he actually posted the unveiling post in Nanjing City, and it is still famous. There are few others in Nanjing City, that is, there are the most idle and panicked imperial history masters, even if his family is very powerful, so that the imperial history masters see it, they will also go to the book to refer to his father, and he can't get rid of a crime of murder and bad intentions.
Luo Qingpu, who was gloating, looked up again, but the stupid son Wang Pu was about to be beaten by his father, and his rotten ass bloomed, which must be rotten enough, worse than Su Ji sauce meat.
I read the content carefully, but I was disappointed, it turned out that it was just for trivial things, only to see that it was written that it was recruiting skilled craftsmen, with good salaries, and it was required to be able to make extremely accurate equipment.
"It turned out to be a job recruitment.,Invite a tooth person to get it.,It's inexplicable.。 Luo Qingpu couldn't help but complain secretly in his heart. Generally, this kind of exposé post has scolding, anti-poetry, and exposing someone's scandal, in short, it can become a teahouse and wine shop talk and can be used as a lively anecdote. However, the post has the effect of inciting people's minds, so the government has always strictly forbidden it, and there is no such boring person, who actually uses the post to recruit workers, and takes the crime as a child's play. "The world is going down. Luo Qingpu sighed, sighed, and was about to leave with his sleeves.
I don't know why, he turned around and glanced at the crimson seal, and for some reason, his eyes couldn't be removed, and he said in his heart: This Wang Pu used a private seal in the illegal revelation, which is irrefutable ironclad evidence, just to find a skilled craftsman, right?
In the Ming Dynasty, both artisan and military households were lowly and had the lowest status, and ordinary people disdained to marry them. Luo Qingpu is a craftsman who creates ritual vessels for the royal family, which is already the ultimate status of a craftsman, and his achievement is equivalent to that of a scholar. However, he was still beaten, scolded and harassed. has no dignity, once a mistake is made, it is easy to beat to death with a stick, how many craftsmen have worked hard all their lives over the years, and they were beaten to death by the nobles just for a moment of negligence.
This Wang Pu is also a nobleman, how can he put a private seal on the evidence of the crime in order to recruit a mere craftsman, and confirm the crime. Why should he bear the responsibility for a lowly craftsman, even if this sin will not cost his life, but it will inevitably have to pay the price.
Luo Qingpu dantian rose a stream of heat, straight to the door of the brain, in an instant, there were some fragments of drama in the mind, the drama treated by the countryman, Han Xin ordered the troops, and looked at the thatched house. He couldn't help but tremble slightly, today Fang Zhishi died for his confidant, and he had no regrets.
Luo Qingpu's blood surged for a while, he stretched out his hand and took off the post, put it in his arms and left, thinking: "With this unveiling post with a private seal, Wang Pu's mansion will not dare to stop it, and he can be reused with his skills, and I don't know what Wang Gongzi wants a craftsman like me to do." "
"This brother, please stay. Just when Luo Qingpu hurriedly walked to the side door of the weaving bureau, and was about to push the door into the threshold, a man's voice suddenly came from behind him, Luo Qingpu suddenly withdrew his hand, turned back in shock, and said in his heart: "It's over, just took off the unveiling post and was seen, how is this good." "In the Ming Dynasty, craftsmen were regarded as slaves, without personal freedom, and the escape of slaves was a small crime, once caught, they had to be escorted back to their hometown, and the officials of their origin were either angry and angry, or for killing chickens and monkeys, they would be punished by torture. For example, breaking tesuji is a more common method. A craftsman's kung fu is all in his hands, and he breaks his tendons, and this craft and means of livelihood are gone, and from then on, he can only beg for a living, suffer all the suffering in the world, and how can he get it.
"Brother Tai is not surprised, the little master's surname is Wang, the king of the Zuodu Governor's Mansion. The strange man looked courteous, not as if he had any malice.
Luo Qingpu looked at the person carefully, a melon seed face full of affinity, white and pure, he was actually a beautiful man, this appearance will fascinate a woman to death, and he must not be allowed to get close to my lady. And when I saw that he was well-dressed, and although the materials used for his clothes were ordinary, they were clean and tidy, and they fit very well, and I believed his words a little. Because if you are born in a common people's family in the market, you have to make money to support your family every day, and you will not be white and clean after being exposed to the scorching sun, like a lady. If he is a noble young master, he will not wear ordinary clothes. There is a high probability that this person in front of him is a servant of a wealthy family, and he can still talk to the master, a servant of a higher status.
"Dare to ask for advice. Luo Qingpu asked cautiously, not being a scoundrel in front of him made him feel more at ease.
"My master is thirsty for talent...... The man said.
"Slow, let's go and talk to another place. The man in front of him was so beautiful, and the girls on the street all looked this way, which made Luo Qingpu, who had a ghost in his heart, very uncomfortable.
"Huh. The man was stunned for a moment and nodded.
The
two of them went one after the other, found a small wine shop, and sat in a remote place.
"The little Wang Lu is in the Zuodu Governor's Mansion to run errands for the master, give gifts and letters. A few days ago, the young master wanted to find a skilled craftsman, and heard that the most skilled craftsmen in the world are all in this Nanjing city. Wang Lu stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the Jiangning Weaving Bureau, and said: "Then he instructed the small one to paste the piece of paper nearby, and the young master said that someone who took off the paper was a person with a heart, and he should be treated politely and treated as a guest." May I ask my brother Taigao's surname and what kind of craftsmanship he does. "
Luo Qingpu was very flattered when he heard this, Wang Pu, the young master of the Zuodu Governor's Mansion, was really different, he did not despise the lowly craftsmen, but also regarded the craftsmen who everyone regarded as untouchables as guests, who would believe it, even the craftsmen who were looked down on by ordinary people could actually get the courtesy of a nobleman, and the good birds chose the wood to perch, only such nobles were worthy of his hard work and danger.
"I'll go back and get ready, and then I'll go out of the city and go with you. Luo Qingpu's blood surged, and he couldn't wait to fly out of the cage immediately.
"Uh? No, no, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for my brother to run away without permission, I brought gold ingots this time, this number. Wang Lu gestured to five: "Is it enough, if it is not enough, you can add more, the former Jiangning Weaving has a relationship with my master, and the current one will not give face, after all, he just wants a craftsman." "
Although Wang Lu's casual words are a little hurtful, but it is the truth, craftsmen are slaves in the eyes of the world, and it is the norm for nobles to give slaves to each other, but most of them are beautiful maids, and it is really appalling to exchange five gold ingots for a craftsman, which inevitably makes people misunderstand that this craftsman looks better than Pan An.
"Five, five gold ingots. Luo Qingpu panted like a cow and asked dumbfounded, "Is it worth it?"
"It's up to you to make it worth it. Wang Lu looked at Luo Qingpu's face and shook his head secretly, if the young master wants your body, this appearance is definitely not worth it.
"I am in charge of making ritual vessels in the weaving bureau, and the shape of
ordinary utensils, bottles and plates is considered qualified, but the ritual utensils are different, and the shape of the ritual vessels I create cannot be seen by the naked eye, and the deviation must be measured with the finest ruler, and the deviation is within one-tenth of a millimeter, so small that it is not visible to the naked eye. The weight should be weighed in a pole, which is about half a grain of rice. There are no more than five craftsmen in the world, who have such skills as me. Luo Qingpu said proudly.
"With his skill, the young master can get the service of Your Excellency, and he will definitely be like a tiger. Wang Lu complimented.
"What exactly does the prince of your mansion want me to do, can you tell me in advance. Luo Qingpu was very curious about what a noble son wanted a craftsman like him to do.
"Hehe, you'll know when the time comes, and you won't be buried in your ability. "
But said that after Wang Pu and Song Yang negotiated, it took half a month to act resolutely, first found dozens of tenant farmers, promised benefits, asked them to build a blast furnace, and made a human generator with rudimentary tools, used mules to turn the generator, ionized water to obtain oxygen, and used coke to practice some high-quality pig iron, all of which went smoothly, that is, the final link, poured oxygen into the molten iron, the furnace exploded, two people died, two people were injured, and the local government dredged up the relationship with the money, needless to say. This incident alarmed his father Wang Wei, and he called Wang Pu to him.
I
saw Wang Wei sitting in the hall with a solemn face, staring at Wang Pu for a while, and said, "A few days ago, I asked you to read Wang Yangming's psychology, have you read it?" "
"Back to his father, Wang Yangming is really a genius in the sky, his mind is broad and profound, and one of them is the most reasonable truth in the world. Wang Pu hurriedly said nonsense, the teenagers of the 21st century have far more information than any master of this era, and when it comes to the great truth, it is naturally enough to make the people of the Ming Dynasty dizzy.
"Hmph, then you can talk about it. Wang Wei sneered, the color is not good, knowing the son Mo Ruo's father, this young son is smart and clever, the most favored among several children, but unfortunately the reading is not successful, the hereditary title of the Wang family can only be passed on to the eldest son, this young son can not be admitted to the imperial examination, the way to the future is a heart disease, Mrs. is still talking about sending him to the country today, the province is doing nonsense in the countryside, and then make a life lawsuit, but Wang Wei is not optimistic about the Ming Dynasty, the current situation is turbulent, there are some troubled times are coming, the appearance of changing the dynasty, what to read at this time, the woman's opinion, the troubled times are coming, saving the life of the family is the most important, it is best to find a military position, bring a military horse out。 The young son's heroic appearance is dressed in armor, and he is very capable of bluffing, and he may be appreciated by Shangguan.
In Wang Yangming's book, the essence is the knowledge of things and the unity of knowledge and action. I pondered for a long time, and suddenly my mouth suddenly opened, what is qualified, is to analyze, to analyze things to get the truth, in the vernacular, practice is the only criterion for testing the truth. Wang Pu peeked at Wang Wei's expression, and sure enough, Wang Wei was shocked, and he was secretly happy in his heart, sample, **Introduction to Theory doesn't stun you, do you think the most painful subject in college is a wasted name. "Knowledge is consciousness, action is matter, and the unity of knowledge and action is that matter determines consciousness in the vernacular, and consciousness has agency over matter. "
Wang Wei frowned, the more he pondered these words, the more he felt unfathomable, and he was a little stupid.
"It's enough to get a little involved in these philosophical knowledge, don't get caught up in it, what about the most reasonable in the world, Xiucai can't be explained when he meets soldiers, not everything can be reasonable. "
"It's Father. "
"I am very pleased that you can have such understanding, and it seems that you have finally grown up and become a talent. Wang Wei smiled. "I happen to have something to tell you, for my father, I want to get you an official position. Guerrilla attacks at Yanmen Pass. "
"Is there a lot of soldiers in Yanmen Pass?" Wang Pu instinctively asked how much he had to spend.
"Although Yanmen is the inner Great Wall, in previous years it was indeed far less than the nine-sided elite soldiers, but now the imperial court is in arrears every year, and the nine-sided is not what it used to be. Wang Wei said in a deep voice: "The soldiers are still usable, for the father to allocate half of the family in the house, one hundred and fifty people to you as a personal soldier, there are four thousand soldiers in the guard according to the full amount, but the actual number is up to five hundred, to the appointment to reward and punish clearly, the soldiers are also people, can not be punished at will, otherwise in the future the rogue will come, these soldiers are unwilling to contribute, Yanmen Pass is a land, if you can't keep it, it is a capital crime, and the father can't keep you." "
Wang Pu nodded silently.
Wang
Weixin said: If Yanmen is in an emergency, it must be the loss of Taiyuan, and the Central Plains has changed hands, that is to say, the Ming Dynasty only has its last breath, and where to go when the time comes, I can only adapt to the situation and look at the fortune of my Wang family.
"In addition, you have to pay attention to the caravans in the past, some caravans can collect cents, and some of them we can't afford to offend, don't accept them, I'll let Wang Lu help you." "
"Thank your father for teaching that the child thinks that the lack of military pay may be able to make up for it with some side jobs. "
"What a side hustle. "
"Smuggling tobacco from the south by sea vessels. Wang Pu whispered quite worriedly.
Wang Wei pondered for a while, nodded approvingly: "This is a good way, but this kind of business can't be done alone, for my father to contact several other wealthy families, discuss a charter, you go to Yanmen first to take office, wait for my letter." "
