Chapter 227: It's time to start with arithmetic

Strictly speaking, local arithmetic is to provide talents for arithmetic in Guozi Studies. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

But there are exceptions, the first is the disciples of the arithmetic family and the famous family themselves, this kind of person can go directly to the scientific examination. The second is that the local government specially cultivates talents, and sends them to Chang'an for scientific research in the name of recommendation during scientific research. After all, everyone has selfish intentions, and if a genius in arithmetic comes out of the state and county, it will also be a great achievement for the local governor.

It is precisely because of this that Luo Yan will put the first step in completing the task on arithmetic.

What does arithmetic involve? Calendar calculations, engineering estimates, business calculations, and so on. Of course, the core idea is the exploration of the connections between numbers.

The level of arithmetic in the early Tang Dynasty reached its peak after the appearance of the "Ancient Arithmetic". Although Luo Yan was not very proficient in mathematics in his previous life, his advanced thinking and insight are enough for the current teaching of arithmetic.

Assassin's House.

It is still the place where Yu Shizong governs, and when he heard that Luo Yan came to visit, Yu Shizong put down the documents in his hand and thought about the purpose of Luo Yan's visit. What happened in Chang'an some time ago has spread all over the country, and as a Shangzhou assassin, his friends in the court also wrote to inform Li Shimin of the matter of Luo Yan at the two sessions. Even Li Shimin's intention to recall Luo Yan to Chang'an also mentioned a few words in the letter.

Knowing that Luo Yan's holy family was still there, Yu Shizong didn't dare to underestimate this young man more and more.

Regardless of it, there are also some doubts about what made this young man refuse Li Shimin's call and have to come to this place to be a teacher. For this point, the friend did not elaborate in the letter, but Yu Shizong became more and more curious in his heart.

In just a moment, Luo Yan was led to the room by the little official. Seeing that Yu Shizong was sitting in a daze, Luo Yan bowed and said: "Yu Gong hasn't seen him for a month, and he is becoming more and more beautiful, which is gratifying." ”

The scene said that Luo Yan was deliberate, and there was no one. Yu Shizong, who is familiar with Luo Yan's character, will take it seriously, retract his thoughts, wave his hand and scold with a smile: "Okay, okay." I have a beautiful demeanor, where can I compare to your Dr. Luo's spring breeze. Chang'an poems are now spread all over the world. If you say that you are beautiful, it should only be you. ”

Let Luo Yan sit down and breathe a sigh of relief, Yu Shizong asked: "I know that you will come here because you have something, let's say, what is the matter that let you, a busy person, come here in person." The state school enrollment matter, all sent someone to inform me, and I remember this matter clearly. ”

It's not that Yu Shizong deliberately embarrassed Luo Yan, but in order to show closeness, he teased him a little.

Luo Yan didn't feel ashamed, and bowed his hand and said, "It's still Yu Gong who understands me." Coming here today, there is indeed one thing to trouble Yu Gong. ”

After receiving Luo Yan's affirmative answer, Yu Shizong nodded and said, "Since there is something, then let me hear it." If the Assassin Mansion can help, then it will definitely try its best to cooperate with Dr. Luo. "The implication is that the Assassin Mansion is also limited, and he can only say sorry for things beyond his ability. Although Yu Shizong intended to befriend Luo Yan, he was also very careful. According to his understanding, Luo Yan's matter of finding someone to help will definitely not be a trivial matter.

There is also a bottom line for this friendship, if you blindly make friends and ignore your own ability, it will not be good to put yourself in it when the time comes.

Luo Yan wanted to find a few arithmetic disciples to come and listen to the lecture. It's just that I've been not famous in arithmetic for a long time, and I'm afraid this matter will not end. Therefore, I went to Yu Gong here, and wanted to find a few students with good qualifications through Yu Gong. "Luo Yan didn't dare to say at this time that he would teach people to the point where they could participate in scientific examinations in just a few months. If he said it, Yu Shizong would definitely refuse.

No one is a fool, and it takes less than a year to teach a few scholars who can participate in the scientific examination, is it possible?

Hearing Luo Yan's words, Yu Shizong was a little embarrassed.

Nowadays, although arithmetic is also a commonly used study among officials, after all, the career is narrow, and it is not as promising as the Ming Jing Jinshi Subject. Therefore, there are some scholars in every state, but it is impossible to say that this is the right way. Luo Yan himself is not famous, and he doesn't know what his level is. At this time, I also asked to find a few good qualifications, to say that it is not difficult, it is false.

After thinking about it for a long time, Yu Shizong said with a wry smile: "Dr. Luo, you really gave me a big problem. Learning, but it is not comparable to the people's livelihood and government affairs under my rule, and when I speak in this thorn history, other scholars will not listen to it at all. ”

Luo Yan had expected this situation before he came, so he didn't bother anymore, but asked, "I don't know if this matter can allow Luo Yan to post some notices in various parts of this state and county." It would also be a good thing if we could attract a few scholars with this. ”

Luo Yan took this matter for granted, and Yu Shizong was not good at wiping Luo Yan's face, so he nodded and said, "This is naturally okay." Even if the recruited scholar gives some treatment, the Assassin Mansion can also help you. Yu Shizong was also a little sorry for not being able to help Luo Yan in the enrollment matter, so he promised this benefit, which can be regarded as a benevolent and righteous response to Luo Yan's request.

Although Yu Shizong said that Luo Yan himself can't afford it, even if he pays some money by himself, it will not be less than that from the Assassin Mansion. But in this way, it can be regarded as having an explanation in the official face. Therefore, Luo Yan thanked him.

After another period of greetings, Luo Yan got up to say goodbye. Yu Shizong was left to mutter, "Could it be that he returned to Jinzhou for this?" Alas, young people are too happy to make great achievements, thinking that they have some achievements in the poetry world, so they have to play with arithmetic. I see, although Your Majesty claims to be knowledgeable, in this Luo Yan, he will still make a mistake when the time comes. Forget it, don't mention this friendship in the future. ”

How would Luo Yan, who came out of the Assassin's Mansion, know that just now, Yu Shizong had pulled him into the kind of pampered and arrogant people. Even the original plan was interrupted. But even if Luo Yan knew, he wouldn't regret anything. Although this matter is indeed a bit taken for granted and unreliable in the eyes of others, for Luo Yan, this is something that must be done and must be done well.

The distrust of others will only make him do it with more enthusiasm.

Two days later, such a notice appeared in Golden State and nearby states.

"A certain Luo Yan, a doctor of Jinzhou state studies. Recently, I have read the scriptures of the past dynasties in detail, and I am quite touched. Today, I would like to invite five friends to study together, and I would like to enlighten you. Today, there are twenty-four steps of the yellow square multiplied by the straight product, only the cloud strand string and nine steps, ask the geometry of the hook? But if you have an answer and an explanation, and you also have the heart of a clear calculation, you can come and give it a try. Anyone who is invited will have two monthly supplements, and Luo will solve the problem of food and accommodation. ”

The Golden State shook. Other states and counties also trembled.

What kind of play is this Luo Yan? If you don't continue to do a good poetic style innovation, and if you don't do a good lecture seriously, how can you suddenly think about it and learn it. Not only that, but it is also specially stated that only those who want to participate in the Mingsuan scientific examination are eligible to go to the appointment. What does that mean? Didn't you say that you have to be a good friend?

But what is even more puzzling is how powerful Luo Yan's arithmetic is. This thing and the scriptures are two completely different paths, and everyone has seen Luo Yan's scriptures, and there is really nothing to criticize. But with Luo Yan's age, it is amazing to have made achievements in scripture, can he have such ability in arithmetic? People are not born to know, how much time and energy does Luo Yan spend on arithmetic?

Although many people are quite tempted by the treatment indicated above, they also know that with Luo Yan's ability, that money is nothing at all. But who is willing to put their best years into it because of a little money during this time. Therefore, those who really have the ability are stuck at the moment.

There were quite a few ranger scoundrels who wanted to take advantage of this, but a question on the notice had already stumped most of the soldiers. These people have the heart to go and eat and drink, but they don't have the ability? There are also those who want to buy the answer and the reconciliation method from the scholars who know the answer. Who would have thought that when they arrived at the gate of Jinzhou State School, they found that if they wanted to enter the door, they needed to answer another question.

In this way, people who want to fish in troubled waters are completely blocked out. It has been half a month since the notice was posted, but there are not many scholars who have come to the state to study and apply. And a few who came were also turned away because of the question at the gate of the state school.

Difficult topics, no guaranteed future, and unclear initiators make the storm brew bigger and bigger, but more is rumor.

"People say that they have learned everything, I think Luo Yan has a little bit of achievements and gets carried away, I'm afraid that in a few years, this talent will be exhausted."

"It's a bit of an exaggeration to run out of talents, but now he is not doing his job, and he will not make achievements in the literary world in the future. Alas, I thought that in my lifetime, I could watch a peer step by step towards the Great Confucian Wenzong. Who would have thought it would be like this. ”

"I didn't see such impatience when I listened to his lectures that day, how did he become like this after returning from Chang'an."

"The next time I go to listen to him, I want to talk to him about it. I can't watch the leaders of my generation sink like this. ”

"Brother Tai, I suggest you don't be a good person in vain. It is said that in the past few days, the scholars of the state school have knelt down and begged him not to do this, but the Si people still go their own way. His morality is lost, this lecture, I will not go in the future. If he has a stigma because of this matter in the future, it will save me and others. ”

Such rhetoric has been so loud in the past few days that the number of people who came to attend the lecture in the recent lecture has dropped to an all-time low -- not even the state school hall is full.

Luo Yan also thought that all this would end with no one coming, so he was tired and a little regretful at the same time. I don't want the next thing to change things in an instant. (To be continued.) )
