Among the seventy-two sages of Confucius, Gongye Chang is not a particularly noteworthy one. In the Tang Dynasty, he was posthumously named Ju Bo, and in the Song Dynasty, he was named Gaomi Hou, from the worship of Confucius, although the Taizu of this dynasty said that he was relatively cautious when he was sealing the sages, and even once even the old Zhuang Mo and so on among the sons of the hundred schools were all sacrificed, but after arriving in Taizong, the old Zhuang Mo and other sages were not worshipped, and the Gongye Chang became the son of Gongye.

And this greatest ability, in addition to being able to understand the language of birds and beasts, is a lifelong study, not a prince. Hundreds of years later, Ma Qian, a well-known Taishi company, also used the word Zichang.

As for how many people have come up with such a word in the long history, it is even more countless.

And the word Yuanhe, as Ge Yong explained, is also simple and easy to understand and catchy.

No matter which word it is, it faintly points to the word Shou in Zhang Shou's name. However, after repeating these two table words, Zhang Shou finally raised his head and looked at Ge Yong, and calmly refused: "These two table words are very good, but they are not suitable for me." Teacher, I seem to be a gentleman, but I'm actually very stubborn. It seems that he does not seek to soar, but in fact, he has his own ideals. ”

"I seek stability, not radicalism, but I am by no means seeking a conformity, but people don't offend me, I don't offend people. I only seek peace of mind, not the approval of others, but if there are people like Lu Sanlang and Zhang Chen who agree with me, and ignorant children like the third prince and the fourth prince trust me, then I will not be afraid of things, and I will do my best to shelter them from the wind and rain. ”

"My mother, who I never met, gave me this word, and I do want to live a long life and be with friends and family, but that's not the most important thing. I am not afraid of being rigid and easy to break, and I am not afraid of all mouths of gold, although I do not seek to leave a name in history, but I have been in this world, I must have a clear conscience and try my best to leave my traces. Whether the world agrees with it, slanders it, or what's my business? ”

When Ge Yong was young, he was also a beautiful man who was sought after by countless women, with fluttering sleeves and unparalleled Fengyi, even if he was old, he was also a handsome old man that Zhu Ying admired very much.

Although his self-esteem is very high, compared with Zhang Shou's current trend, he still has to feel that Zhang Shou is stronger than him back then, regardless of his appearance and demeanor, as well as the momentum of his career start, as well as his achievements in arithmetic.

However, when he was young, he had a temper that exploded at one point, so the only thing he was not satisfied with was Zhang Shou's gentlemen's character.

But now that Zhang Shou is about my, he is suddenly happy. Instead of getting angry, he patted Zhang Shou's shoulder vigorously and shouted happily: "Okay, I'm afraid that you will be called a bamboo gentleman all day long, so you have become a warm swallow of water and have lost your enterprising mind!" ”

"It's right to be a parent's child and grandson to live a long life, but in order to live a long life, it becomes a turtle with a shrunken head, then it's not interesting!"

After he finished speaking, he didn't look at Zhang Shou's stunned expression, paced back and forth a few steps, and actually groaned in a deep voice: "'Haotian Shu Day, Lingjing Yao Shenzhou.'" In the Purple Palace, Feiyu is like a cloud. In the high gate of E'e, all are princes. Since you are not a dragon climber, what is a trip? was browned out of the room, and chased Xu by high steps. Zhenyi thousands of gangs, full of thousands of miles. ’”

"Zuo Si this song history, I liked it very much when I was young, at that time I only felt that the Tao was different and did not conspire with each other, and walked away with my clothes, and lived in seclusion in the mountains. After seeing Su Dongpo's sentence of a cloud of smoke and rain Ren Pingsheng, he was even more shocked. But it was only a few years ago that I realized why Zuo Si or Su Dongpo could leave a name for eternity. ”

"Although there are a few twists and turns in my career, whether it is Yingzong or Ruizong, it is a rare master, even if I make enemies on all sides because of that kind of character, I have always been well protected by them. Since there is no such state of mind that is degraded or indignant after being idle, but having to force an open-minded and peaceful mind, it is impossible to make such poems that have been passed down through the ages. ”

"If you look at my poems that circulate in the world, you can find that they are all flat and stable rich and noble, prosperous style, can write rich and noble atmosphere, no matter how good it is, it can be better than 'pear blossom courtyard dissolves the moon, catkins pond faint wind'? I can only write something like "Shengchazi", 'first look at meritorious deeds, and then see the king's face'. But even so, I thought to myself in my life, but I have never been with the light! ”

Speaking of this, Ge Yong turned to face Zhang Shou, his face was full of ease.

"I'm not a great Confucian, nor am I a celebrity, seriously speaking, I'm probably the most proficient in arithmetic among the ministers of this dynasty, and the biggest official among those who are proficient in arithmetic. As for the seven yuan and the first ancient and modern, hehe, it is the blessing of my ancestors, and the court hopes to set an example. ”

"Therefore, I am very selective in accepting students, and I don't like those guys who pretend to be gentlemen, and I don't like the kind of guys who are full of benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and trust. You are a good academic qualification, and you have not forgotten to enlighten people in the small village, so I can't help but accept you, even this table, I hope to think of the most appropriate one for you. Those two are really good, but you said well, and neither is for you. ”

Old Master Ge looked at Zhang Shou with blazing eyes, and said word by word: "I plan to give you nine chapters of the table." Zhang Shou, do you think you can afford it? ”

Zhang Shou was stunned for a moment. Among the ten books of arithmetic, "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" has always been praised as the most important one, and until later generations, there are often various volumes from which materials are extracted as examination questions.

In addition to "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", Qu Yuan's "Nine Chapters" is also a famous piece that has been passed down through the ages. In addition to the second nine chapters, there are nine chapters embroidered on the crown of the Son of Heaven, and even the most important military flag of the imperial court has nine chapters.

If these two words are used as an alias for themselves, they are still so-so and reasonable, and they can be used as table words...... He's a teacher who is really not afraid of people talking behind his back!

However, thinking about the two modest words just now, and then thinking about the two meaningful words at this time, he couldn't help laughing in the end: "Since the teacher dares to give me such a table, how can I say that I can't afford it?" ”

"Haha, okay, I really didn't misread you!"

Ge Yong suddenly smiled, not to mention that joy. He looked up at this almost rebuilt building, and said in a deep voice: "The late Fengzhi doctor and Yiren, Ling Lang Zhang Shouye has become an adult, and now I give him nine chapters of the table, I hope that he is as fearless as Qu Zi, and can push the sutra that has been handed down to this day to a new peak." ”

"Nine is the number of extremes, and the word longevity has the same magic, the chapter word and the surname Zhang homonym, I hope that you wait for the spirit of the sky, can bless you, a good son to continue the holy learning, open the peace of the world."

Seeing that Ge Yong actually raised his hand at the gate and shook it solemnly, Zhang Shou couldn't help but be extremely moved after being stunned for a while. Even if the couple they have never met are still alive, they are actually completely Ge Yong's juniors in terms of age, just like the Wu family, who is overjoyed when they see Ge Yong now, they are afraid that they will be respectful to this famous old lady Ge.

But now they are the deceased, and Ge Yong's gift is the courtesy of the living to the deceased, not the courtesy of the teacher to the student's parents. Therefore, after Ge Yong bowed, he also bowed solemnly, completely without the perfunctory etiquette of the past.

After all, the widow Zhang in it essentially gave him a second chance to start over in life, and Ge Yong added the hardest background to him - compared to the future Chenglong Jiazi of the Zhao State Mansion, the identity of the closed disciple of the emperor really provided him with endless help when he first arrived in the capital.

Not to mention, Ge Yong also blocked a lot of suspicions for him, and for this alone, such a teacher is difficult to find even with a lantern.

Ge Yong accepted Zhang Shou's reply, and then stepped forward to pick the person up, but he held Zhang Shou's shoulder and pressed it hard, and then said with a complicated expression: "You have a table character, from now on, I should call you Jiuzhang." You were born in a poor family, but by chance you were involved in the biggest dispute seventeen years ago, and thus became attached to the Zhao State Mansion and the royal family. ”

"I don't know how many times your life experience has been checked, it's clean and spotless, so even if Yingying doesn't like you, just rely on your qualifications to learn, I'm willing to accept you as a disciple, as for the others, I don't care about Ge Yong! The other students of mine were all in their twenties and thirties when they entered the door, which one of them was not an art investment teacher? ”

"What's more, you are not preaching those things that are pretentious, but you have genuinely brought more systematic and gradual arithmetic than the nine chapters of arithmetic. My teacher is even more blessed by you, and he has published a lot of books, so that as soon as I see Old Man Chu now, he will ridicule me, saying that I am a thief who steals students' books. ”

Zhang Shou was suddenly a little embarrassed. He thought about it again and again, and finally said in a low voice: "Actually, when I was lecturing in Guozijian that day, I mentioned Euclid and Archimedes, two arithmetic masters in the West 17,800 years ago, among which Euclid once had a work "The Original Geometry", and many definitions in the teacher's "New Edition of Arithmetic" came from this......

"Oh?" Ge Yong smiled, didn't ridicule Zhang Shoushi anymore, and still kept saying that the new compilation of arithmetic was his, and then raised his eyebrows and said, "Then you go back and bring the "Geometric Original" to me to see?" ”

Zhang Shou just gave Ge Yong a precautionary shot - after all, even if the butterfly wings were fanned and fanned, with the pervasiveness of Western missionaries, perhaps there were already missionaries who had read the original geometry and arrived in Daming with the merchant ships. These people are now language barriers, but God knows how long it will take for multilingual missionaries to learn Chinese?

Most importantly, the notation system he used in the new edition of Ge's arithmetic was the Arabic numeral and Latin symbol system that had been promoted since the time of Taizu, and those missionaries may not be able to understand Chinese, but they could certainly understand those calculations. Although these missionaries are soft-spoken in the Ming Dynasty, he still has to take precautions.

But now Ge Yong asked him for "Geometric Originals"...... Where did he go to find this old lady? The true original of "Geometry Original" has long been lost, and the book reprinted in later generations is definitely not something that ordinary people will read, because compared to the systematic mathematics textbooks, this thing is the same as "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", and most people are at most flipping it.

What's more, he actually turned over a little bit...... Of course, at that time, it was to brag in front of the people I hated, and it was over when people were stunned and hid their faces......

Therefore, Zhang Shou could only bite the bullet and whisper: "I just watched it once, and I can't remember a lot of the content clearly." As for the books, I don't have them at hand, and if the teacher wants to read them, he will probably ask the treaty ports such as Tianjin and Guangzhou to pay attention to whether there are foreign monks, that is, whether those Westerners who believe in religion and proselytize carry them. The original Greek version of that book should have been called Στοιχε?? α》。 ”

Seeing that his very non-standard Greek pronunciation made Ge Yong frown, Zhang Shou changed his words again: "It is said that the Hui people used in the Yuan Dynasty also translated this book, called "The Number of Seasons Algorithm Sections", a total of fifteen volumes, but it is difficult to say whether it is really a translation of this book. After all, there was a lot of chaos in the world at that time, and these things might have been scattered......"

Before he could finish speaking, Ge Yong happily slapped his face and said, "Then it will be troublesome!" Emperor Taizu sent people to infiltrate the palace early before he conquered the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, which is now the capital, just to keep the library. In the current ancient and modern collection library, the yuan books in it are very complete. Since there is such a name, I will go back and have people look it up...... No, I'll check it out myself! ”

Seeing that Ge Yong put down these words, he turned around and left in a hurry, Zhang Shou couldn't help but wipe the sweat on his forehead.

There is a saying that a lie requires countless lies to complete. In those days, English was still a small language, even French was not popular, and even Spain was far from becoming the first empire on which the sun never set, and Latin was the common language of all missionaries and aristocrats in those days. So, the original geometry was translated into Latin hundreds of years after it was translated into Arabic.

The problem was that the Latin geometry was originally sent to him, and he estimated that he could understand some of the equations at most, and he couldn't read the rest!

I only hope that some of the information found in later generations in order to bluff people can really work, at least if the "Four Seasons Algorithm Paragraphs" is found in the ancient and modern Tongji library, and if it is the original translation of geometry, Ge Yong probably will not hold on to the original version!

Since Mr. Ge left first, Zhang Shou sent Ah Liu to Zhao Guogong's mansion and told Zhu Ying about Ge Yongqi's expression. As a result, when Wu returned to Zhang Yuan, it was naturally overjoyed. And Jiang Dashao, who happened to have just returned to the gate of Zhang Yuan, took the opportunity to come forward to salute the Wu family, and after inquiring about the matter, he complimented him repeatedly.

Living in Zhang Yuan but not getting any benefits from being close to the water, Jiang Dashao has always shown a very good demeanor, and today he is the first to congratulate, and the Wu family is very pleasing to the eye when he looks at him. She was only ten years older than Jiang Dashao, and she naturally put on the caring attitude of her elders and cared a few words, and when she heard Jiang Dashao mention the textile thing in front of her, she laughed on a whim.

She said casually: "I heard Ah Shou say that although today's new looms are fast, they still can't compare to the speed of spinning. I had seen water milling in the countryside before, and I wondered if if I could use water to push the weaving cloth in the same way. ”

When Wu took Jiang Dashao to the study to meet Zhang Shou and mentioned this matter, Zhang Shou immediately held his forehead with his hand. His fiancée Zhu Ying is already thinking about building a team and team, and his mother, who has always been honest and kind, even thought of a water-powered loom!
