Chapter 67: A Good Teacher and a Good Apprentice
"Hmm, is there really such a registration in the Taoist Association?" After hearing Sun Lao's words, Fang Yi was also stunned for a moment, he originally thought that the line of documents left by the master for himself was made by a small advertisement under the mountain, but he didn't expect it to be true.
"Yes, I found someone to read it, and it is very clear that you became the presiding abbot of the Qing Palace on Fangshan three years ago, and this host is not something that anyone can do......
Sun Lao nodded, the doubts in his eyes still did not dissipate, you must know, whether it is a Buddhist gate or a Taoist gate, but every temple or Taoist temple should be a person of high morality and respect, how can it not be Fang Yi's turn.
"Teacher, there are only two people in the Shangqing Palace, me and Master, and after Master dies, I will be left alone......"
After hearing Sun Lao's words, Fang Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly, although the name of Shangqing Palace is very loud, but it is always a broken Taoist temple with only three or five leaky houses, and for decades, there are only two Taoist priests in it, Fang Yi and Master, the old Taoist priest is dead, Fang Yi is naturally the presiding abbot.
"Up...... There are only two Taoist priests in the Shangqing Palace?" Hearing this, Old Sun opened his mouth wide, then shook his head and laughed dumbly.
Afraid of evoking Fang Yi's sad past, Sun Lianda didn't ask him about his previous affairs, and naturally he didn't know that a Taoist temple with such a lofty name had actually decayed into this kind of Cheng Dù, no wonder he couldn't find out any information about the Qing Palace on Fang Mountain.
"Alright, let's not talk about it......"
Sun Lianda smiled and waved his hand, and said: "The state is still very lenient on religious qualifications, I want to find a way for you to pass the registration for the postgraduate examination, your main task in the past six months is to thoroughly understand the knowledge in these textbooks, especially English and high mathematics, you must master the ......"
Out of Fang Yi's understanding of Fang Yi's ancient literature and historical skills, Sun Lianda is not worried about the professional exam at all, politics is a rote memorization thing, with Fang Yi's intelligence must also be able to pass guò, but the graduate exam is not only professional and political, English and mathematics are also very important.
In fact, many old professors in China, including Sun Lianda, are very disgusted with these courses for the postgraduate entrance examination.
Sun Lianda has an old friend, an old professor at the Beijing Academy of Fine Arts, and an extremely famous painter in China, he has always wanted to bring a few outstanding disciples, but helplessly, every year he fancied the good seedlings, always failed the English exam, and finally failed to become his student.
In the end, the old professor angrily wrote a letter to the relevant education department, saying that he taught Chinese painting and that there was nothing to communicate with foreign countries, and hoped that the relevant departments could relax the policy so that truly talented people could learn knowledge.
Of course, the old professor's starting point is good, but he is a little too idealistic, it has been several years since his letter was sent, and no one has come out to solve the problem.
"Teacher, it's not a big problem in English, but I can't understand high math a little......"
Looking at the thick stack of books on the coffee table, Fang Yi couldn't help but scratch his head, the fat man had sent him tapes and textbooks to learn English before, plus the radio that Fang Yi was tinkering with, he could also hear some English teaching broadcasts, although he didn't speak well, but Fang Yi's English vocabulary was still good.
Compared with English, Fang Yi is a little worse in the course of high mathematics, without the teacher's explanation, he is dizzy to see those formulas such as trigonometric functions, if he lets himself take the high mathematics test, Fang Yi estimates that in addition to a few questions in the multiple-choice questions, he will not be able to answer the others.
"In our discipline, high math is not necessarily compulsory, I'll just let you review it......" Hearing that Fang Yi spoke English well, Old Sun suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face, he originally thought that Fang Yi, who grew up in the mountains, didn't even know twenty-four English letters.
As for high mathematics, there was no test last year, Sun Lianda just heard that it was possible to take the test this year, so people found books related to high mathematics, as long as they waited for another month, they could know how many subjects they must take this year.
"That's it......"
Sun Lao stood up a little excitedly, walked back and forth in the living room a few times, and said: "In the future, you will learn professional knowledge from me, you will learn English with an English tutor in the future, and you will find time to memorize politics on Sunday, and we will strive to be admitted to the ...... at the beginning of next year."
Checking Fang Yi's academic qualifications is only the first step, but whether he can be admitted to graduate school still needs Fang Yi's own efforts, Sun Lianda originally only held thirty or forty percent hopes, but now that he communicates with Fang Yi, this hope has immediately risen to seventy or eighty percent.
"Okay, teacher, I'll try my best......"
Fang Yi nodded very seriously, in the mountains for more than ten years, although he has learned a lot of skills that are difficult for ordinary people to access, but in the same way, Fang Yi's understanding of modern science is not as good as many current junior high school students, at this time Fang Yi is like a dehydrated sponge, eager to enrich himself.
"Come, let's start the first class today, and I will tell you about the origin and development of museology, which is generally set up with archaeology or history ......."
Although Sun Lianda is ready to teach Fang Yi the knowledge of antique identification, but there is only an archaeology major in China, and there is no such professional course as antique identification, and Sun Lianda is also a professor in the museum department, and Fang Yi's graduate students can only apply for the museum department.
However, the Department of Museums, the Department of Archaeology and the Department of History, these three majors, are complementary to each other in a certain way, the so-called all-in-one, like Sun Lianda is the deputy director of the National Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee, and is a figure in the cultural relics industry and the antique industry Taishan Beidou.
Of course, if you want to become an expert in antiques and cultural relics as soon as you learn Arabic, it is absolutely impossible, but no one in the industry will recognize that he is a professional.
Sun Lianda will take an empty class at Jinling University every week, the knowledge he talks about is simple and simple, and it is easy to listen to Fang Yi's historical skills, after more than two hours of lectures, whether it is Sun Lianda or Fang Yi, they are a little unsatisfied.
"Teacher, that's all for today......"
Fang Yi looked at the wall clock on the wall, then looked at the teacher's excited and tired face, and immediately said, "Teacher, you rest early, and I'll bring you some early tomorrow when I go out of the stall......
"Okay, Fang Yi, there are two thousand yuan on the table, you can use it first......"
Sun Lianda didn't wait for Fang Yi to excuse himself, and continued: "In the university, graduate students have to help teachers complete some scientific research projects, and the school will allocate some funds, so you take the money first, and the teacher will not give you money when you do projects in the future......"
Sun Lianda's words are not to comfort Fang Yi, but it is true, as a well-known archaeological and cultural relics expert in China, as long as there are larger tombs unearthed, the relevant departments must ask Sun Lianda to set up a team to demonstrate the unearthed cultural relics, so Sun Lianda has never lacked funds in his hands.
"Okay, I'll take it, thank you, teacher......"
Hearing what Elder Sun said, Fang Yi was not polite, and immediately put the two thousand yuan on the table into his pocket, and cleaned the teacup used by the teacher and wiped the coffee table before Fang Yi said goodbye and left.
"If you get this good apprentice, you have no regrets in this life......"
Looking at Fang Yi's departing figure, Sun Lianda smiled very happily, Fang Yi was very thorough at the lecture just now, and he was able to put forward his own views on many issues, which made Sun Lianda very happy.
What makes Sun Lianda even more important is that Fang Yi's respect for him is from the heart, just like cleaning up before leaving, Fang Yi naturally did it, Sun Lianda can see that this is definitely not Fang Yi's deliberate in order to tie himself up.
