Chapter 292
"Are these children just playing?" Ji Yonghao asked Chu Wei.
Chu Wei started and said, "Yeah, Your Highness, aren't all children like this? They are all commoners and can't afford a gentleman to teach them."
Ji Yonghao touched the chin, these children are all their own people in the future, as the saying goes, teach them to start from the dolls, although they don't need to teach them math, physics and chemistry, but give them a simple check on innate talent, so that they can still cultivate. They can be taught to read and read, the key is ideological education, to instill in them the idea of loyalty to the royal family.
“Is there a school on the blueprint of Soul City?” Ji Yonghao asked.
"Yes, Your Highness, the school is not small, and it is located in the residential area in the northeast of Holy Soul City." Chu Wei quickly replied, he did not know how to read the blueprint of the entire construction of Holy Soul City. How many times, everything has been deeply remembered in his mind. When he saw this school, he was also puzzled. He didn't know why it was used. to such a big school? Those commoner children can't afford to pay school fees.
"Go on, build the school first. When I find someone responsible for opening the school, I will prepare the textbooks." Ji Yonghao instructed.
"It's Your Highness!" Chu Wei agreed, then hesitated for a while, and said, "Your Highness, isn't this school too big? And this location is not a noble residence, their children go to school. Isn't it a bit far?"
"This school is a school for all people, no matter the children of nobles and commoners, can study for free." Ji Yonghao explained.
"This..." Chu Wei's complexion changed slightly and said, "Your Highness, how can nobles go to school with commoners? Those nobles are afraid that they will not be willing. Besides, knowledge is priceless. How can those civilians be allowed to study for free?"
"en?" Ji Yonghao frowned slightly, how dare he question his own words?
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, this subordinate has overstepped." Chu Wei also reacted, and he had gone a bit too far. How could he question His Highness's thoughts, and he immediately apologized.
Ji Yonghao ignored him. He had his own reasons for doing so. To instill loyalty in children, we must let them go to school and let them know how great they are and how good they are. .
If there is a fee, those commoners are impossible to let their children go to school, but he knows that although the cultivation talent aristocrats have a high probability of producing people with good innate talent, the base of commoners is too large. powerhouse, what should I do if I don't instill in them the idea of loyalty and the country and the Imperial Family in advance?
No one can guarantee that there will not be a person who is arrogant in the air, and a comparison of 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. The nobles are their own responsibility, then how can they enjoy the authority of the nobles?
...
The team continued to move forward. At this time, a gust of wind came over, and Ji Yonghao smelled a strong stench.
“Why is it so stinky? What’s the situation?” Ji Yonghao asked angrily.
Chu Wei showed an embarrassed smile and said, "His Royal Highness, there are hundreds of thousands of people here, and there is a lot of excretion every day. This place must be the place where they concentrate their excrement. Let's leave quickly. "
"You just let them excrete in the wild?" Ji Yonghao looked at Chu Wei, his face gloomy.
If you don't pay attention to hygiene, it can be big or small. So many people live here. If you don't pay attention to hygiene, it is easy to break out a large-scale plague, and waste that feces. Isn't it good as fertilizer?
Chu Wei saw His Highness's anger, and felt very uneasy in his heart, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Your Highness, calm down, because the construction of the Holy Spirit City is really in a hurry, if you arrange a special person Cleaning, it will take up a lot of manpower, and the Lanting Hydroelectric Power Plant is just downstream of the exit of the Nanshan Tunnel in the Holy Spirit City. If the excrement is dumped, it will float to the Hydroelectric Power Plant, and I am afraid it will damage the Hydroelectric Power Plant.”
Ji Yonghao heard this, and I understood it a little. After all, the Holy Spirit City has not started farming, and the feces cannot be used reasonably.
Immediately, he began to wonder if he could arrange for someone to start farming? Although it is cheaper to buy food now, when there are more people in Holy Soul City in the future, buying food will also be a big expense, and food is related to people's livelihood, and will hold the lifeblood in the hands of others.
And I have machinery and equipment, the Lanting River outside the Holy Soul Valley is a large plain, and there are countless wastelands that can be used. . Just like the west on the Divine Dragon star in the previous life, there are large plains, from turning the ground, sowing, harvesting, etc., all procedures will not be touched by hand, as long as you can drive machinery.
This world has no four seasons, and it is possible to grow wheat all year round. On the continent, it is only cold in the north and hot in the south. In my position, it looks like 20 or 30 degrees all year round. Of course, my own Now I can't see the scene outside the planet, and I don't know whether this world is a round sky or a huge planet. I can't tell whether the planet does not revolve, or it revolves in a perfect circle when it revolves, so there are no four seasons.
Civilians in this geographical location generally eat wheat, so if wheat is grown, the yield per mu of land is about 1,000 jin, and if two crops are planted a year, it is 2,000 jin. Grain, the annual output of that one mu of land can feed 2,000 people a day, and 365 mu can feed 2,000 people a year. According to the calculation of 10 million people after the Holy Spirit City, that planting 180 people 10,000 acres is enough. Of course, now that there are few people, it is enough to plant 100,000 mu for the time being. After all, it takes time to produce machinery and train personnel, and it will be gradually increased in the future.
According to their all-mechanized farming in the previous life, one person can plant about 200 mu of land, but that is a whole of 200 mu, and all the land here belongs to oneself. Ten thousand mu can be regarded as a whole. If each of them performs their duties, the efficiency can be increased. In addition, some suspended mechanical equipment can be made, and the efficiency will increase again. About two or three hundred people are enough.
"Chu Wei, I will arrange for someone to build a toilet later, and tell everyone that they must go to the toilet for excretion in the future, and then arrange for someone to collect all the excrement and use it to fertilize crops later." Ji Yonghao instructed .
"Yes, Your Highness!" Chu Wei agreed, since it was ordered by His Highness the Prince, then naturally he had to do it, but it seemed that the construction period of the Holy Spirit City had to be delayed again, although the financial Wu An, the son of Minister Wu Cheng, is still continuously recruiting people to participate in the construction, but the number of people is still insufficient. If it weren't for the various mechanical equipment invented by His Highness the Prince, the construction of the Holy Spirit City would have taken many years. Woolen cloth.
But what does His Highness the Prince mean, do you want to arrange for people to farm the land? Then there are more people who need it. If you want to feed these hundreds of thousands of people, you need at least 10,000 people to cultivate the land, right? Thinking of this, Chu Wei couldn't help but feel anxious.
