Chapter 711: Revisiting the Zhenguan Numbers
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister will definitely live up to his mission!"
Li Yi knelt on one knee and solemnly promised.
Li Er nodded, suddenly picked up the rice paper on his left hand, stood up, and prepared to leave.
"Your Majesty is leaving?"
Li Yi asked in a daze.
"It's all settled, why am I still here? But before you go, go to a place first! ”
"Where, uh?"
"I heard that you have taken in a group of apprentices? I'll check it out! ”
Li Yi scratched his head.
"Father-in-law, how old is the son-in-law? Where will the apprentices be accepted? It's a group of children in the original primary school branch, and the son-in-law has nothing to do, and he teaches something casually, which can be regarded as training teachers for Shanshui College! ”
"Cultivating teachers?" Li Er pondered for a moment, guessed what Li Yi meant, and immediately said: "Hmph, your kid's movement is not small, for the sake of the disciples, he actually pretended to be crazy and stupid to offend the small and semi-nobles of Chang'an, and he also got the name of Li Madman, and you kid did it." ”
"Hehe, isn't the kid also forced to be helpless!"
Li Er snorted coldly. "Hmph, you kid has a lot of ghosts, it's not that I said you, you kid looked like a demon when he was smart, but if he was stupid, he really looked like a fool, it was a matter that was easy to solve, you have to make it so complicated, with your status, just find an excuse to prevaricate in the past, who can say anything? As for pretending to be crazy? ”
Li Yi scratched his head.
"I didn't think about it that much at the time, my head was hot, and I did whatever I wanted!"
Li Er shook his head.
"You, the only good thing is to have self-knowledge, I now feel that your stubborn decision not to hold real power is definitely a wise decision, with your temperament, but it is not the material to be an official!"
Li Yi's face was speechless. "Father-in-law, is this praising the son-in-law?"
Li Shuang shook his face, his face twitching slightly. "Think for yourself!"
After saying that, he got up and went out.
Behind, Li Yi lowered his head and muttered to himself. "It's just praising me, self-knowledge is also a virtue!"
When Li Er in front heard it, the corners of his mouth twitched again. "This stinky boy, I thought he had changed his character, but he was still so stingy, this little bastard."
Li Er complained in his heart.
The two guards at the door saw Li Er coming out and hurriedly followed, and then it didn't take long for Yang Gonggong to come out and take the initiative to follow Li Er, after that, Li Yi heard a burst of Xixi Suosuo from the door of the study, the sound was not loud, if it weren't for Li Yi's developed hearing, he might not be able to hear clearly.
Li Yi smiled knowingly, he knew that this was a wolf warrior, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, they had really improved.
Not long after, a group of people came to the vicinity of the classroom, in order not to disturb them, Li Er ordered, everyone was silent, and then only Li Yi and Yang Gonggong were accompanied, slowly approaching the classroom.
The three of them stopped outside the classroom window, and since the classroom window was open, Li Er could clearly see everything that was happening inside.
I saw more than 20 students sitting inside, divided into two parts, one part was headed by Wu Meiniang and Cheng Chuliang, who were flipping through a thick account book, and the other part was a younger child led by Xuanxuan, who was holding a piece of paper and writing something on the desk.
"What are they doing here?"
Li Er asked in a curious whisper.
Li Yi took a look at it, and then he understood it in his chest, and replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty, because these children have a large age gap and different foundations, in order to take care of the children who are young and have a thin foundation, the son-in-law teaches very slowly.
Generally speaking, in the morning, the son-in-law will give lectures, and in the afternoon, Bingyu will take them to study freely, mainly so that the younger children can catch up as soon as possible.
In the afternoon, their schoolwork is relatively free, Your Majesty, you see, the ones on the left are all older and thick-educated children, especially Cheng Chuliang, who have been studying in the military academy for a short time, so they are more free in the afternoon, but the little nephew also did some targeted training for them. Just like now, they are auditing the accounts, and what they have in their hands is the account book of the Li Mansion for the past month. ”
Li Er opened his mouth and said in surprise: "You mean, they will count the accounts now?" ”
No wonder Li Er was surprised, because in ancient times, anyone who could count accounts was an indispensable talent wherever he went, and he definitely didn't have to worry about food, and he could support himself with this ability, and even if he was more powerful, he would be an official in the court.
Li Yi smiled and said: "Hehe, Your Majesty, Cheng Chuliang and them, or most of the students of Shanshui Academy and Military Academy now, with their level, it is more than enough to be an accountant."
Your Majesty, the minister has long said that Zhenguan numbers have an innate advantage in mathematics, and it is definitely a kind of progress, of course, Zhenguan numbers also have its shortcomings, for example, accounts are easy to be tampered with, etc., but the flaws are not concealed, with the arithmetic of Zhenguan numbers, just like Wenchen has the four treasures of the study, and the generals have peerless magic soldiers, it will be leapfrog progress! ”
"Is it really as amazing as you say?"
Li Er's face was full of suspicion, he had some understanding of Zhenguan numbers, but he hadn't studied them carefully, and even the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Civil Affairs had already used them on a small scale, and he knew that he didn't stop it, but he didn't explicitly agree. He has always been skeptical of the Zhenguan figures, or he has not had time to verify them, and has been delaying until now.
"Your Majesty, look over there!" Li Yi pointed at Xuanxuan and them. "It has been less than a month since they learned Zhenguan numbers, but they have achieved remarkable results, and now they are just one person, and they have mastered the algorithm within 100, and they can even do mental arithmetic!"
"Are you sure?"
Li Er didn't believe it.
Li Yi smiled confidently.
"Your Majesty can verify it on the spot."
Li Er glanced at Li Yi and became interested. Swept inside, pointing at a random person. "Just him!"
Li Yi looked at it and was happy.
Li Er's name is actually a big cow, maybe he thinks that the big cow is five big and three thick, not like reading material.
Li Yi smiled secretly in his heart, don't look at the honest appearance of the big bull, in fact, he is very clever, and his IQ is even higher.
Li Yi didn't break it, nodded, and motioned to Bingyu to call the big cow out.
Bing Yu had already discovered it as soon as Li Er and the others approached, but it was silent, and now when she heard Li Yi's order, she hurriedly ordered Da Niu to go out.
Da Niu was doing the question, and he was suddenly called, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but for Bing Yu, Da Niu didn't dare and would not have the slightest complaint, he was honest on the outside, and his heart was also kind.
For the Li family, Da Niu is grateful from the bottom of his heart, if it weren't for Li Yi, he wouldn't know where to do coolies now, and even eating is a problem, not to mention that he eats and drinks well all day long, he doesn't have to do any work, and he can still read and study. This is something he couldn't have imagined before, and for him, this is a fairy-like day, so he cherishes it very much.
Da Niu got up and bowed respectfully to Bingyu, and without asking a word, he quickly got up and walked out!
