Chapter 82                                                             �

Zhu Jianjun smiled and said, "A gentleman has some research on the six arts of his own."

Nonsense, how could Zhu Qizhen not know the importance of mathematics?

Therefore, Zhu Jianjun's mathematics was taught by the people of the Imperial Heavenly Prison, and even Zhu Qizhen sometimes taught him personally.

It's not very high, but it's still in junior high school.

Of course, Zhu Qizhen himself can't talk about any good teacher, and after so many years, he has long returned the books he had studied when he was a teenager.

It was all basic and simple things he gave to Zhu Jianjun.

Zhu Qizhen didn't care that Zhu Jianjun became a mathematician, but he hoped that Zhu Jianjun had the most basic mathematical thinking, such as reporting some data below and being able to analyze it himself.

You can't be confused and you can't see anything.

But even so, Zhu Jianjun's mathematical ability is not very good in this era. Real mathematicians have been brought to the Imperial Heaven Supervision by Zhu Qizhen and are calculating the orbits of the sun and the moon. Some people have even gone to various places to conduct surveys in the four seas.

However, compared to the major events that the imperial court is promoting, the matter of measuring the four seas cannot be said to be beaten, and the cost is not much. It is impossible for a special person to notice it.

Apart from these mathematical astronomy masters, Zhu Jianjun's mathematical ability is certainly not a top-notch among the Ming officials, but it is enough.

Kou Shen said: "Since that's the case, Your Highness is very familiar with these processes now, so I dared to ask Your Highness to lead a team to the Qingzhang land in Wujin County?"

Zhu Jianjun said, "I have been waiting for it for a long time."

Kou Shen had already sorted out the situation in Wujin County and knew that Wujin County had no major problems.

First of all, there are no large clans in Wujin County. Although some families have large populations, they do not have high-ranking officials and nobles, and they cannot be called large clans. The only Yun family with some climate is also a relatively honest one.

I won't make things difficult for the prince.

As for the magistrate of Wujin, he is even more a good person.

It is one of the counties in the south of the Yangtze River with relatively small resistance.

After Kou Shen made arrangements with Zhu Jianjun, he specifically instructed the Jinyiwei to protect the prince's safety. The prince did not go down by himself, but brought his entourage, and more than a hundred people dressed as officials.

These guards in the Qing Palace cannot be both civil and military, but they are temporarily recruited to write and calculate, but there is no problem. After all, they are all from martial arts.

In addition, Cao Nai specially transferred an army from Nanjing nearby.

Even if something happened, it would come to beat Zhu Jianjun within one or two hours. Even Kou Shen had a news that the prince was the grandson of a big boss in the court.

It is also to cover up the prince's abnormality.

After all, the prince’s relationship with his side can tell that something is wrong if anyone with a discerning eye can see.

This is also a real and true plan. After all this was arranged, Kou Shen focused on the accounts in his hands. This marked place name is the problem of Jiangnan's measurement.

If Kou Shen wanted to fool him, he just raised his hand. But he didn't want to.

After all, he was unwilling to give up his reputation for life, nor was he willing to let down the emperor's expectations.

After all, Kou Shen also understood why the emperor had already resigned to this old minister.

If you offend Jiangnan, you will be extremely troubled, but if the emperor is disappointed, the consequences will be great.

"Stop it." Kou Shen said in his heart: "Do the last thing for His Majesty."

The prince was not very clear about Kou Shen and some people in Jiangnan who were secretly invisible.

First, Kou Shen hid it from the prince, and he didn't want to make things worse, and the same was true for Jiangnan.

They just wanted Kou Shen to slow down, but they didn't want to do anything else, so they naturally wanted the prince to know nothing.

Only when they burst out will outsiders understand this kind of undercurrent.

But the prince took his own guard and abandoned his horse and took a boat to Wujin County, Changzhou.

Wujin County is the Fuguo County of Changzhou.

After arriving in Changzhou, the magistrate of Changzhou did not receive them, but directly asked the county magistrate to receive them.

As mentioned before, the county magistrate is a good old man. After the prince arrived at the county government office, he exchanged a few greetings and asked someone to take out the yellow book of the representatives. The prince started working.

Start with the fish scale picture album, divide the land in Wujin County into pieces, start to clear the rice ball, and compare it with the yellow book. After determining the land, local people will be summoned to determine the owner of the land together, and mark it on the fish scale picture album.

It's easy to say, but it's very cumbersome.

After the start, the prince understood even more why Kou Shen said that his math was good.

Because measuring land is essentially a mathematical problem.

The common method now is to open the method.

Of course, this method of opening is not to square it, but to find ways to convert irregular land into a standard square to calculate the land area using various means.

This is actually a junior high school mathematics problem.

It is not too difficult to say, but it is very cumbersome.

After all, in reality, mathematics will not give you zero or complete. You should know that many places in the Ming Dynasty had seven or eight digits after the decimal point, which shows the cumbersomeness of these specific accounts.

Zhu Jianjun calculated with his guards, and these guards couldn't help with this? After all, mathematics in martial arts does not teach geometry at all. While muttering in his heart, "After I go back, I will definitely recommend that my father round all but the two decimal places after the decimal point."

But he muttered in his heart, but he was helpless. At least now he could only do this according to this method.

In fact, although these tasks are tedious, Zhu Jianjun is competent.

Moreover, Zhu Jianjun understood very well that his father sent him over, not to let him do these things, but to let him pay attention to the people's livelihood.

So when things are on the right track, Zhang Mao and others can replace him, or Zhu Jianjun's freshness, focus on the local people.

First of all, local people are afraid of officials.

Although Zhu Jianjun came out as an official, in order to facilitate Zhu Jianjun's work, Kou Shen gave him a seventh-rank official position.

In Zhu Jianjun's eyes, this seventh-rank official position was just a small official like sesame and green beans, but for the local people, it was a very large official position.

As big as the magistrate.

Enough to make them tremble.

Zhu Jianjun also got better for several days before he got along with them.

Only then did I understand what the local situation was like.

First of all, most villages are actually composed of small families, that is, parents, sons, and daughters-in-law add another child, which is such a structure.

Therefore, the situation where many people see the houses of the houses on TV is not without, but it is not common, and most people live a similar life to the family structure in later generations.

If there are many people in the family, the older generation will take the initiative to split up.

Many times, it can't be afforded.

Because in the village, the means of production are fixed and the output is also fixed. In the past few years of peace, there was still enough wasteland to be reclaimed.

But time has passed and there has been no wasteland.

So many people in the village left their hometowns and went out to make a living, such as tenants, being peddlers, and working hard in the city, and doing all kinds of ways.

Ordinary people are not able to gather people from their families together.

Dividing up becomes inevitable.

The high rate of infant death also makes it difficult for ordinary people to have multiple children, and most of them just raise one or two sons.

There is even a tradition of drowning a baby girl in order to raise a son.

It can only be a tragedy.

Men farm and women weave, which accurately describes the production landscape of this era. Especially when this area is close to Taihu Lake, it is a traditional silk production area. Silkworm raising is a craft handed down by ancestors over the past hundreds of years.

Therefore, every year, raising silkworms and selling cocoons is the harvest. Together, these two harvests are still tight for the people, but they have surpassed most areas of the Ming Dynasty.

The cocoons and silk produced in these countrysides flowed into Suzhou continuously, supporting tens of thousands of looms in Suzhou, and even supporting Suzhou, a big city where the Ming Dynasty surpassed the two capitals.

Jiangnan handicraft industry is not only silk textile, but also many things. Jiangnan’s wealth is the best in the world. Although the land in Jiangnan is fertile, it is more supported by these handicrafts.
