Volume 2 Prosperous Bianjing Chapter 158 Words and Inheritance
The third big change that will be made in literacy classes is for the undercurrents of not wanting to learn square words.
Some Zhuang people only want to use pinyin, so they do not hesitate to privately connect and promote the abolition of Chinese in Gongzhong.
Every time Li Xiang thinks of this, he has to be angry: it's really simple-minded......
The villagers and craftsmen who came out of the literacy class could read the notices of the public middle school, and they could have a certain amount of written communication with the account office, the steward, and the little gentleman of Mengxue. There are also hundreds of books marked with pinyin, and more than 20 former blind people have begun to read, and their jaws have dropped in shock.
However, being able to write Chinese is still very advantageous.
Whether it is a public high school, a Mongolian school or a medical and health department, if you want to go up, you will hit the ceiling. No matter who it is, only by passing the Chinese character assessment can it be regarded as a real "reader" in the hearts of Zhuang Min, and under the constraints of more and more regulations, can he sit in a high-level position.
Zhuang Min and Gongzhong staff, who could only read some pinyin, were very dissatisfied.
Pinyin is so easy to use, it saves time and effort to learn, why use Chinese? Many of the newcomers just knew a little Chinese, and they were quickly reused, why?
Li Xiang is aware of the idea that some Zhuang people "want to be fair".
Zhuang Min, who wants to abolish square characters in Gongzhong and only use pinyin, has a variety of ideas:
Some of them don't have the energy to learn, or are too lazy to learn square characters, but they are jealous of the treatment of people who can write Chinese;
Some people want to get more convenient conditions. If Shonai only uses pinyin, then everyone will be the same. Relatively speaking, these people have eliminated some of the disadvantages;
There are also some people who want to completely separate themselves from the Great Zhou people outside Mingyue Castle, so that they can close the door and live in paradise.
Li Xiang understands that the proposition is based on interests, but he cannot allow the separatism of some Zhuang people to flourish.
There are too many top smart people in Bianjing, and Li Xiang was so frightened that he ran out of Bianjing. If Mingyuezhuang abolishes the square word and respects the pinyin text alone, Mingyuezhuang will be defined as a heresy by the Great Zhou Dynasty in minutes. At that time, the perception of Mingyuezhuang by several rulers may be worse than that of Manichaeism.
What's more, Li Xiang didn't want to and didn't dare to be a sinner for the ages.
Thousands of years of Wenhua have created such a broad and profound beautiful character as square characters, how dare Li Xiang blaspheme?
Li Xiang still remembers that his mother in the original time and space wrote well.
When Li Xiang was a child, he often held toys and watched his mother write on the desk, and the sun shone on the corners of his mother's upturned mouth.
With a light breath, Li Xiang took the three-character scripture in the hands of the literate classman. Li Xiang's memories of the three-character scripture were incomplete, and Li Mengkong and Zhang Wanli's literary talents were not enough, so they had to wait for Mr. Qingshi to complete it.
Li Xianghuo opened the book, "Let's see, what is this?!" β
Li Xiang slowly turned the page, and his mouth kept talking, "Every word in this has a history of hundreds, thousands, or even thousands of years. The people of the Great Zhou, the Yan Huang nobles, the ancestors of the blue wisps, the good things passed down from generation to generation, all in it! β
"For the sake of profit, for the sake of enlightenment, in order to keep oneself behind closed doors, the square word will be abolished, and the owner of the village will not do such a thing." Li Xiang closed the book and closed his eyes for a few breaths, "Only learning pinyin is to save time, effort and money, but if you really want to do that, I Mingyuezhuang will become a sinner through the ages." β
"If we forget our ancestors, then our children and grandchildren will also forget us. If there really comes a day, our children and grandchildren can only spend a lot of effort to re-learn square characters and find Mingyuezhuang from Da Zhou's book, what will they think of us? β
"Thousands of years of inheritance, the great cause of the three emperors and five emperors, and the struggle of the ancestors of the Qin and Han dynasties have long been immersed in horizontal and vertical square words. The idea of only learning pinyin is still saved, and the literacy class should also add the learning of square words. β
Encouraging Zhuang Min, who have passed the assessment of the literacy class, to use the dictionary and 100 commonly used Chinese characters to read pinyin and learn square characters on their own while reading pinyin, this is the ultimate goal of the third major change in the literacy class. This must be a long-term project, and the top talents of Da Zhou have all participated in the imperial examination, and the progress of Mingyuezhuang is destined to be very slow.
Da Zhou may have great talents who live in seclusion in the countryside, but it is difficult to be "picked up" by Li Xiang. The father-in-law successfully recruited An, and he was accepted as a disciple by Mr. Qingshi, Li Xiang was already very lucky.
Speaking of the dictionary, Li Xiang began to be depressed again.
Li Xiang had long proposed a dictionary scheme to sort Chinese characters according to pinyin, but he wanted a dictionary similar to the original time and space that could help children learn Chinese. According to Mingyuezhuang's current financial and human resources, this is another big project for decades.
After listening to the heartfelt words of the owner, the villagers' expressions dispersed.
Li Xiang completely recognized Zhang Wanli.
It is not easy for Zhang Wanli to see the big from the small, after all, he does not have Li Xiang's open-minded breadth of knowledge and historical accumulation.
I inspected the two big rooms of the literacy class, and fiddled with the sand table for practicing calligraphy for a while. Li Xiang was basically satisfied with the work of the teachers in the literacy class, and invited a few of them to his small courtyard for dinner.
The first time they received the "feast" from the owner, several literate class masters were excited, and a young man in his early fifteenth year was in tears.
Li Mengkong, Zhao Bo, and Liu Sheng unanimously despised it: they had never seen the world. What is it to eat at the owner's house, during the New Year's holidays, the owner will do it himself! I heard that the owner of the village had come up with a new dish, so I had to find a way to get it from the martyrs......
"Li Xiang actually said directly that he would overhaul the literacy class and punish unruly workshop owners, stewards and team leaders?" Liu Xiadu's grandfather listened to his grandson's story, stroked his beard, and was silent for a long time.
In the old man's opinion, the armed caravan should be under the full control of the Gongzhong, so as not to let those rough men mess around.
I'm used to relying on myself in Qinling, where do you still want to obey the control of the public school, and now you're busy, right? You can't just say anything about those people, you have to find ways to resolve the depression, anxiety and confusion in the hearts of those people, you really deserve it.
Also, literacy classes should not be overhauled, but simply abolished.
Didn't you look at those honest villagers who were originally "honest", after learning things in the literacy class, all of them were ambitious? Xiaomin should be honest and blind, it will be very troublesome if there are more sensible people, if everyone in the Great Zhou Dynasty can recognize words, then it is not messy?
Since Li Xiang wants to punish some people regardless of the current crisis, Liu Xiadu's grandfather certainly can't let go of this good opportunity: since you, Li Xiang, want to target those people, then the old man has tried to win over one or two in the past, and he is afraid that those people will not fall to the seven Liu families?
Late at night, Uncle Zhao knocked on Li Xiang's courtyard door.
Li Xiang got up in his clothes, and several strong women in the wing room were already dressed neatly, and when they heard someone asking to see the owner, they hurriedly made tea and boiled water.
There are only a few people who can knock on the door of the owner's room at any time, and Uncle Zhao is in fact equivalent to Li Xiang's servant entourage.
Uncle Zhao handed over the information, thanked the owner for the tea, and put half of his butt on the stool, where he didn't say a word.
Li Xiang tightened the information slightly, "The Liu family's actions are really fast, and there are enough people to woo them, and there are not enough people......"
In the next few days, Li Xiang inspected the Zhuang Min workshop on the south bank of the Xiao River in Mingyue Fort, as well as the two-story and three-story brick and stone buildings built by the new Zhuang Min.
The owner of the village said some clichΓ©s, the content of which is nothing more than the limited conditions in the village, and everyone has been wronged. He also promised that when the construction of Mingyue Fort was on the right track, he would vigorously develop the hills and mountain roads outside the east gate and the west gate, divert water and repair canals, and meet the housing needs of new and old villagers.
The owner of the village cordially received the villagers, and regardless of the danger, inspected the lime kilns, brick kilns, and stone yards jointly built by the new villagers and the old villagers, and earnestly taught them to pay attention to production safety.
The owner repeatedly emphasized that only people can live a good life, and took out a very material-saving "mask" pattern on the spot to replace the previous headwrap. The villagers, who were suffering from the smoke and dust in the stone kiln, wept bitterly on the spot, and thanked the owner for his compassion for the villagers.
On the spot, the compassionate owner of the village demanded several workshop owners: Every villager with a yellow household registration who works in dangerous places such as lime kilns must wear a hat and a mask to protect his safety.
In order to further protect the basic interests of the low-level villagers and the newcomers, Master Li Mengkong of the Gongzhong School promised on the spot that the promises made by the owner of the village would be discussed at the meeting of the Gongzhong High School, and as long as they were approved, they would be implemented immediately. In fact, there has never been a precedent for Li Xiang's request to be rejected.
Jing Xinyi and other representatives of the new Zhuangmin were moved to tears, and said on the spot that they would expand production capacity and never delay the construction of Mingyue Fort.
The newly rising old Zhuangmin, on behalf of the three sons, is on the front line of exterminating Fangla. There is a big voice that cooperates with the three sons of the family stationed in the Sanwang Village, and the three sons are the big cows of the in-laws on behalf of the three families, and they are cordially received by the owner.
After a few days like this, Li Xiang couldn't stand it anymore and suspended his plan to inspect the Hanjiang Workshop.
Li Xiang was so moved by his hard work and desperation that he decided to rest for a few days. He wore chain mail inside, leather armor in the middle, and fine lin armor on the outside, grabbed a crossbow, and ran into the tightly sealed back mountain.
"Hunt for two days, don't disturb. Ruo Susu returned and informed Yamaguchi's personal guard, and the owner of the village naturally appeared. Li Mengkong and Zhang Wanli looked at the note left by Li Xiang and couldn't laugh or cry.
The owner was so tired that he ran away, and there was no one in Da Zhou.
The clerk who had just been promoted by Li Xiang yesterday coughed twice, "The owner of the village is too tired, it is normal to go to the mountains to rest for two days." β
Zhao Bo and Liu Sheng have not yet accepted the officials, and they ignore the reason. The old villagers, especially the old villagers who were forced to the mountains, have always hated the Xu class.
Fortunately, Li Mengkong knew some of the owner's calculations, and Zhang Wanli, who had a lot of experience, knew that it was not easy for some officials, so he greeted the officials, and the officials were not too embarrassed.
Eyes turned to Jiangnan, Hangzhou.
Jiangnan does not have the cold of the north in winter, but it is wet and cold.
Fang Tianding entered the East City Gate, and behind him was a long convoy, full of trophies. Loud cheers rang out from the city walls.
Fang Tianding was a silver-robed white horse, holding Fang Tian's halberd, and went straight to the Holy Prince's Mansion, which was the original Zhizhou Yamen.
Dismounted, seeing the old brother guarding the door, Fang Tianding continued to walk inside, and after checking the seal letter at the bottom of the steps, he stepped into the lobby of Zhizhou. No, it is no longer the Zhizhou Hall, and it has been transformed into a place where the Holy Father convenes civil and military affairs.
Fang Tianding lowered his head and walked into the lobby, the scale armor on his body, the iron boots on the soles of his feet, and the steel helmet on his head rattled. Fang Tianding, who had just returned from the battlefield, had a fierce aura all over his body, which made several civil officials who had never seen the world break out in a cold sweat. The old brother who followed Fang La's incident was also amazed, and said secretly: Hero, admire!
Fang Tianding calmed the audience.
