Early in the morning, Qin Feng walked with Jia Jingmin and went to the Red Sleeve Wenyuan.

Jia Jingmin sat in the carriage and saw that Qin Feng was still thinking. There was a trace of worry in his heart, and I didn't know if his method was 100% sure as he said.

The young lady had something on her mind, so Ruyi didn't bother and sat quietly in the carriage.

Qin Feng's thinking has basically been clear, that is, the entire Xinhua dictionary of Dahua has come out. Also note the punctuation marks inside.

A few days ago, I read Dahua's novel, and I have consciously used means such as mentioning lines and spaces to segment sections. Draw a double line next to the place name and a single line next to the name of the person. At the beginning of each sentence, there is also a large circle to make it easier for the reader to read.

So this punctuation mark can also be regarded as the right thing to do. Presented to the people of Dahua, he pretended to be a cultural envoy.

Qin Feng was thinking, in addition to gambling, could he get some income from other places?

There was nothing to say all the way, and I arrived at the Red Sleeve Wenyuan. Today is a private gathering, Jia Jingmin stepped forward and knocked on the door with Ruyi.

After opening the door, Xiaohuan greeted him with a smile, Qin Feng thought that he had come early, but Lu Wenman and Shu Yi were already waiting for them in the front hall.

Several people greeted each other and sat down. Xiaohuan commanded several maids to serve tea, snacks, and fruit plates. I was about to retire after a busy day.

Qin Feng stopped and said, "Wait, may I ask Miss Xiaohuan, are you literate?" ”

"Back to Gongzi's words, Xiaohuan used to accompany Miss to study and read some words."

"So, are there any illiterate girls among these girls?"

Xiaohuan said: "We usually teach some. But everyone is not very literate. ”

Qin Feng nodded: "Okay, then please Xiaohuan help me prepare a few pieces of paper and some ink, and I'll try to use my method to teach everyone literacy." ”

A few maids rejoiced and went to help prepare.

Lu Wenman smiled: "I didn't expect that overnight, Qin Gongzi would be able to think of a way to read and write." ”

Qin Feng smiled and shook his head: "I'll be honest, this is not something I thought of overnight. A long time ago, I came into contact with several distant foreigners, Egyptians. They have a script called Latin, where each word is like a graphic and represents a pronunciation. At that time, I thought that this method should also be very helpful for our literacy. So I've been compiling this for a long time. When I mentioned this matter again yesterday, I felt a little sure. As for the effect, you three talented women, you can see it soon. If there are deficiencies, we have three months to correct them. ”

Jia Jingmin was nervous for Qin Feng in her heart, and nodded her head with a smile on her face.

Shu Yi also nodded with a smile, hoping that she would have a unique vision and earn a thousand taels for nothing. The point is that the money was earned by oneself.

Lu Wenman smiled: "Thank you Gongzi Qin for being honest, I am looking forward to Gongzi's next teaching." ”

Put it on the desk, light incense, a maid grinds ink, a maid lays paper, and a maid looks at the pen holder: "May I ask Mr. Qin, which pen do you use?" ”

Qin Feng took out a hair from his arms: "I'll use this." ”

That day, I taught Jia Song to make a few quills, writing, and bookkeeping, which was really easy to use. When Jia Jingmin saw it, she also took two of them.

But today, I haven't seen any other girl, and I was a little stunned for a while.

Shu Yi puffed out his eyes and said, "Young Master Qin, this is, goose feathers?" ”

Qin Feng smiled: "Quill pen!" In Nanchang City, aren't there many Fanbang alien races, and they will use this kind of quill pen to write. ”

A very small number of men in Dahua may have the opportunity to see foreigners write. But Dahua woman has really never seen it.

Qin Feng walked to the back of the big case, dipped in ink, and drew a, o, and e on a piece of paper...... Wait for a dozen letters.

Several maids stood in a row in front, and Jia Jingmin, Shu Yi, and Lu Wenman also came over and stood next to them.

Qin Feng held up the paper: "Look at these graphics clearly, this is to help everyone recognize words, it can be imagined that the source of word recognition." That's why it's called letters. This letter, which means such a pronunciation, come and pronounce it with me! ”

Ah, oh, oh, wave......

There were more than a dozen letters, and several maids quickly memorized them. Qin Feng wrote a Ba character, wrote B and A on the prefix of the Ba character, and said: "Read with me, Bo, Bo, ----- Ba!" ”

Drawing a small line casually, Qin Feng said: "This line is Pingyin." There are four tones......"

Qin Feng wrote another word, drew the root of the four tones, and said: "Wave, wave, let's ----- the sound!" ”

Jia Jingmin's eyes became brighter and brighter, Lu Wenman looked surprised, and Shu Yi was dumbfounded......

Lu Wenman finally couldn't help but interrupt: "Mr. Qin, how many such letters do you have?" ”

Qin Feng smiled slightly, triumphant: "There are 63 in total, divided into 23 initials, 24 finals, and 16 syllables for overall pronunciation!" Learn these 63 letters, the world's words, you can pronounce the pronunciation, you can spell it! ”

Lu Wenman suddenly said: "Gongzi Qin is really a genius!" This is the phonetic syncopation method, but we used to directly mark the pronunciation with words, and Qin Gongzi used this letter to mark the phonetics. ”

"That's right! My 63 letters represent 63 pronunciations, and the combination of phonics can encompass all the words! I call him pinyin. Qin Feng said with a smile: "A child, as long as he learns pinyin in ten days, he can recognize all the words in the world!" ”

Jia Jingmin nodded: "Yes!" The three-character classic, the interpretation of the text, and the vocabulary can all be marked with this pinyin. ”

Qin Feng glanced at Jia Jingmin and said with a mouth shape: Smart!

"Then I've won this thousand taels?!" Shu Yi smiled.

"And that's not all!" Qin Feng waved his hand and said with a smile: "We selected five thousand commonly used words, and asked one hundred readers to learn pinyin first, and then assign fifty words to each person, mark pinyin, each word, group words, idioms, and annotate them." Written into a book, take a name, it is called Dahua Dictionary! ”

Lu Wenman's eyes lit up: "Dictionary, classics, Qin Gongzi will be famous all over the world!" ”

Qin Feng waved his hand again: "It's not me!" It's us, and I'm doing this with you Red Sleeve Wenyuan. And those 100 readers, their names will be left in the dictionary! ”

"Really?! Wow! Our Red Sleeve Wenyuan can also follow Qin Gongzi to become famous all over the world. Shu Yi clapped her hands and said.

Lu Wenman's face was also a little excited: "The meaning of this dictionary can be called the immortal work of a reader." Why did Qin Gongzi not monopolize it, but share the profits? ”

When a person acts as a person who plagiarizes, there is always some uneasiness. Therefore, Qin Feng said with a straight face: "Invite a hundred readers, it will take me a lot of time." But there are many girls in the Red Sleeve Garden, in their own families, relatives and friends, and they can be summoned immediately. Then they annotate and annotate the 5,000 words, and finally proofread and screen, which is a huge amount of work. It also needs to be participated by the Red Sleeve Wenyuan, otherwise, it will be difficult to become a dictionary in three months. ”

Shu Yi nodded and said, "Qin Gongzi is planning, we Red Sleeve Wenyuan are acting, is that what it means?!" ”

Qin Feng smiled and said, "That's right! And it's not in vain. Readers, a thousand words are paid. Each person is assigned fifty words, and he is paid fifty taels. ”

Lu Wenman smiled: "If you can leave your name in the dictionary, they will rush to come, you really don't have to give this silver." ”

"To give, must give!" Qin Feng said: "Well, the value of a scholar must be reflected. A thousand words is also a gimmick. Also, I made a bet to win 10,000 taels of silver, 5,000 taels to be paid to the readers, and 5,000 taels were printed in a dictionary and distributed free of charge. The people at the Provincial Shilin Academy said that I was covered with copper stench. ”

Shu Yi wanted to speak and stopped.

Lu Wenman's face was solemn: "Qin Gongzi has a high festival and a clean breeze, and he is really a model among scholars. ”

Jia Jingmin looked at Qin Feng from the side, her previous worries turned into joy, she didn't want to say anything now, she just wanted to watch Qin Feng pretend to be forced quietly.

Qin Feng turned his head to Shu Yi and said, "Among the 10,000 taels of silver, there are 1,000 taels of Miss Shu." Let's change the way, I will first ask Miss Shu, Miss Lu, if it is written at the back of the dictionary or in front of the preface, the words will be compiled into a dictionary, and I would like to thank the following families for their strong support. You say, is there a family that wants to leave a name? ”

"Absolutely! Once the dictionary is available, all children will learn it and everyone will use it, oh my! A hundred years, a thousand years, the dictionary will leave a name for thousands of years! They will snatch their heads for this name, Qin Gongzi, you, oh! Shu Yi covered her mouth with her hands and looked at Qin Feng with wide eyes.

Qin Feng smiled: "There's no need to grab the head, just give out the silver, 10,000 taels for a family." I intend to acknowledge the ten families. A thousand words and a canon, that all have a cost. If there is an expense, there must be an income! ”

Lu Wenman had a trace of embarrassment on his face, what I said just now, the high festival is breezy and the model among the people, I don't know if I can take it back?

Qin Feng said again: "The three of you will take these 100,000 taels and 50,000 yuan as the principal for your perfume business together." The other girls of the Red Sleeve Wenyuan paid some cash remuneration, or, too, merged into the perfume business. Mrs. Shu's 10,000 taels will be returned to Mrs., and we will rely on ourselves. How about I use the remaining 50,000 taels for other purposes? ”

Qin Feng's move will win over the entire Red Sleeve Wenyuan, and the perfume business, I'm afraid no one can shake it anymore.

Shu Yi jumped up instantly: "Okay! We rely on ourselves, 50,000 taels, so much silver, we can buy a mountain to raise flowers, no, two! ”

Lu Wenman smiled: "I don't know business, so I won't participate in perfume." If you make perfume with your heart, I will put more thought into it and help you look at the Red Sleeve Wenyuan. ”

Jia Jingmin smiled and said, "Miss Lu, these things are all connected. You're right, you put more effort into the Red Sleeve Garden, and in the perfume business, we put more effort into it. As for the elements, we should all have them. ”

Shu Yi also persuaded: "Sister Lu, Sister Jia is right! The Red Sleeve Wenyuan belongs to all of us, and so does the perfume business, we should all have a share, don't you give it a share, okay?! ”

Lu Wenman couldn't smile bitterly, Qin Feng didn't spend his own money, it was purely generous to others.

I want to be high and breezy once, and it really seems to be raw. Moreover, Qin Feng clearly pulled himself into the water! No, pull the entire Red Sleeve Wenyuan into the water. In the future, whoever wants to say that this name and money is not authentic, is attacking the Red Sleeve Wenyuan.

This man is really, alas. Lu Wenman thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay then." ”
