Chapter 33: Confucian Fundamentalism

Notices posted at Ha Tinh's city gates and on the cross streets became the focus of discussion at home and in public.

The proclamation was written in a very simple and semi-vernacular dialect to which the people of Ha Tinh had become accustomed to: "All those who have reached the age of eight under the rule of the general's office, regardless of gender, regardless of Han or Miao, shall be registered and enrolled in the primary school, and during the school period, the necessary pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., shall be paid by the local taxes, and the students may eat at the school while they are in school, and the expenses shall also be paid by the local taxes." ”

There was a literate person who shook his head and read the list text under the list text, and from time to time greeted the acquaintances next to him, explaining to them his opinions and opinions on the list text.

For a time, it caused an uproar.

There are supporters, opponents, and skeptics.

The supporters are naturally Li Shouhan's fanatical supporters, and what Li Shouhan has done in the past year has become their theoretical basis: "The general is the person chosen by the Emperor of Heaven, even if it is not the stars in the heavens, it is not much different." What he wants to do is naturally of great benefit to us, when have you ever seen the gods deceive ordinary people? ”

Opponents also did not dare to oppose Li Shouhan's move, after all, running a free school, or free education, has always been a matter of virtue and politics, and whoever opposes it will be cut off from his neighbors. They are mainly part of the anti-Han initiative, "What do you mean by both men and women?" Regardless of Han and Miao? Could it be that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, is wrong? Do you want those seedlings and barbarians to also learn the classics of my Han sage? ”

The largest number of people are skeptical.

"Our own doll, studying still has to ask the general to pay for pen, ink, paper, inkstone? Do you still care?! Such a good thing, if you wear a lantern, even if you look for it in the north and south capitals at the feet of the Son of Heaven, you may not be able to find it! ”

"That's it! Now that we are in Hejing, the territory under the jurisdiction of the General's Mansion extends to Hengshan in the north, Haihe River in the south, the sea in the east, and Laos in the west, I'm afraid there are more than 100,000 households? ! If, as written in the list, both men and women over the age of eight are going to school, wouldn't there be tens of thousands of children?! At the end of the day, how much white rice do you need to cook for the dolls? ”

Soon, these discussions were sent to the general's mansion, Li Shouhan's signing room.

Today's general's mansion, because the jurisdiction, population, military horses, ships and artillery have increased a lot, and there are workshops, mines, carpentry mills, shipyards, etc., the original official hall has been turned into a six-room system, that is, the six rooms of the officials' households and soldiers. The original general's mansion was not enough, so it borrowed the two corridors of the Guandi Temple to work. However, Shouhan himself is still working in the general's mansion.

When An Tianhong, the head of the ceremonial house who was in charge of managing the household, collected these discussions in front of Shouhan, Shouhan was inspecting the sample textbook that the workshop had just delivered.

In fact, the printing of textbooks is entirely a by-product of manufacturing industries such as military industry and shipbuilding.

To cast a bronze cannon, you need to turn the copper or copper coins stored in the warehouse into copper liquid, and then add tin, which is bronze. However, the copper coins in the treasury have lead content in them. Moreover, the lead content is about 40%. Large quantities of lead were replaced and piled up in the corners of the warehouse, waiting to be either made into lead bullet or recombined with some other metal to form some kind of alloy.

However, before deciding that the troops were to be turned into firearms, Shouhan felt that the lead seemed to have other uses. "Today's sailors, artillerymen, shipyards, and workshops are all literate people, but there are not many literate people here!" This is the emotion of Shouhan and Li Peilin when they discussed the matter that day.

But that's okay, what are our ancestors proud of? "Four great inventions!" What is the significance of the printing press? Break down the barriers to literacy and education monopolized by a few! Although today, there are only four major inventions left for us to use to fight the mouth.

According to the standards of Shouhan, the clay movable type is fired into pottery movable type, and then through a series of processing techniques to make lead movable type, although the process of making a mold at the beginning is cumbersome and complicated, but after the mold is completed, the movable type can be cast in mass production in large quantities, and it is quickly popularized, and it is also a completely unified specification standard, without fear of damage, which is more conducive to popularization.

Next, it is time for industrial production. A waterwheel was arranged, a power transmission system was added to the tongguΓ², and an iron hammer was hung to make a simple press, and then an iron die was used to directly stamping the lead plate to produce movable type.

Finally, there is the appearance of the ink made of castor oil and ink.

This textbook, which embodies the wisdom of predecessors and the technology of today, appeared on Shouhan's desk.

"If you say that books are expensive and you can't afford them, I'll give them away for free." Li Shouhan weighed the three-character scripture in his hand, which cost only fifteen yuan, and he was not without pride in his heart.

"My lord, there is a lot of discussion outside, there are no more than two kinds, one is that there seems to be some slight remarks about the scope of Mengtong who adults ask to go to school, thinking that the scope is too wide. How can men and women be placed side by side? These people speak, the saint cloud; A woman's lack of talent is virtue. In addition, how to make the Miao people and other Yi people stand side by side with our Han people? Second, there are some questions about the curriculum of the school. ”

"What did the saint say?" Li Shouhan snorted in his nose, "Did the Dacheng Most Holy Ancestor Confucius say it?" ”

"This?" An Tianhong was speechless. Oh, yes! Sage Kong just said that only women and villains are difficult to raise, and if they are close, they are not inferior to those who are far away. Isn't the girl's home just far away, not close? It's completely realistic, huh?

"Analects, I have also read that the words of the sages are all subtle words, but it is a pity that the disciples crooked their mouths and read the truth. All I know is that the sages said that there is no class in teaching. Where did you say that your daughter's family was forbidden to attend the church? ”

As for prohibiting the Miao family and other ethnic minorities from studying the Han classics, it is even more intolerable to the Han guards!

How much effort did Lao Tzu take, and finally had such an opportunity, he could shine the light of my Chinese civilization in all directions, you Confucians, in order to monopolize your own rights, you opened your eyes and said nonsense, and at this time you talked about Yixia Dafang and the like? Damn! When the elites and leaders of Donglin shaved their heads in droves and surrendered to the Manchus, how could no one say anything about Yixia defense or something?

"Check it out! Where did these words come from? If it is said by the scholar, let him read the words of the sage, what is taught without class, and what is Yidi into China? Could it be that they are more powerful than saints?! ”

You say that you are a holy monarch, and you can be more virtuous than the three generations of holy monarchs? No ruler seems to dare to say so, except for those who eat bran and drink thin, and those who are dry and deaf. Anyone who wants a little skin and face doesn't dare to say that.

However, now that Li Shouhan is attacking the shield of the son with the spear of the son, you say that you are powerful, are you even more powerful than a saint?

While talking here, Li Peilin and Wu Cunjie walked in, although Li Peilin did not clearly defect to Li Shouhan at this time, but the status of a guest secretary is indispensable. Besides, the person who once assisted the soldiers and horses of the Liaodong General Military Office of the Ming Dynasty was not a small effort to manage the finances and internal affairs of the small land of Ha Jing.

He reached out and took the copy of "Please Set Up a School" on the table, and after reading it a few times, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.

"Haha! This is retro, this is a good disciple of a saint! I laughed at that Donglin, how can I see the sage under the Nine Springs in the future?! ”

Wu Cunjie was very curious, stretched out his hand to take the post, and studied it carefully.

"This?!" When he saw the curriculum, he was also dumbfounded. It's no wonder that such a course design is really surprising.

"Music? Painting? Physical education? Equestrianism? Ship handling? Swordplay? Mathematics? "These aren't the most exciting, the most exciting is this, "Bow or firebolt?" By age group? ”

"My lord? What are you? What to do? Is this a lesson for the Mengtongs? ”

"I said pure wolf." Every time Li Shouhan called this name, his heart felt a pleasure of being satisfied with his bad taste. "I ask you, are you a disciple of a saint?"

"That's nature! When Wu was enlightened, he also had an apprenticeship in front of the saint statue! ”

"That's good. Let me ask you, what was it that the saint used to teach his disciples? ”

"What's so hard about that? What the saint teaches is nothing more than the six arts of the gentleman! ”

"The Six Arts?"

"Etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, mathematics? ......" Wu Cunjie found that he seemed to have fallen for Li Shouhan's evil deeds.

"What is the number? What is the shot? Why is it royal? Li Shouhan looked at the poor pure wolf with the eyes of a big bad wolf looking at the little white rabbit.

"Numbers, naturally, are numbers. But this shot and royal? ”

"When I was a saint, I was naturally a bow and arrow, and a chariot, but where can I find such a chariot here? There was no way, so naturally it was the next best thing, riding horses and driving boats. ”

This moment seemed to arouse Wu Cunjie's hope for victory in the debate, "Since the lord said that he wanted to be a disciple of the saint, he must do exactly what the saint said." Not the slightest! ”

Hey! You dogmatist!

"However, saints also have clouds, and they are called holy."

Soon, new notices were posted in lively places, but this time, the content of the notices was even more novel. It was released in the form of a dialogue between a rotten Confucian and Li Shouhan. Poor Wu Cunjie was regarded as a negative example, but fortunately, he was not named.

Several questions that were used as targets and attacks in the market were all raised through the mouth of the rotten Confucian GuΓ², and General Li replied and refuted them one by one.

Finally, the general concluded, "This school is completely set up in accordance with the original intention of the sage, first, there is no class, second, Yidi enters China, and third, let the children receive education according to the six arts of gentlemen of the ancient sages, is there anything wrong?!" ”

No one is stupid, and many people immediately made up their minds to send their children to school when the school started.

Not to mention anything else, just these courses, as long as any child, as long as they are not too stupid and too playful, will have a place to find a job after graduation.

I really can't do it, so I went to work as a sailor on a ship, which is also an income of nearly ten taels a month!

On the way to send their children to sign up, many natives taught earnestly all the way, "Baby! Read the books of the Han sages well, as long as you read the books well, it is possible to seek a good future in the place of the Han people in the future, and Daddy and Niang and the ancestors will also be happy for you. ”

"General, Confucianism, there are many factions in the system, which school is this?" Rao is Li Peilin, who has learned to be rich and rich, and has also experienced the tempering of the imperial examination, and he can't say what Li Shouhan's faction is.

I am Confucian fundamentalism!

Li Shouhan laughed wildly in his heart.
