Chapter 47: Squire Knight

(Thank you for the reward of the dazzling dance soul, thank you, ask for recommendation votes for support!) )

The set of Confucian Nine Classics sent by Liuxian Ling, Li Xiao forwarded it to Yang Dayan.

Looking at this set of Confucian classics written on jute paper with wooden box sets and ox bones as shafts, his eyes glowed red with excitement. "Great, there will be books in the school in the future." Yang Dayan is old, and what he is most afraid of is that he has a bad memory, and he will teach the wrong students and mislead people's children.

He opened them one by one, flipped the scroll, and looked at the ink on it, the book was a manuscript rather than a printed version, but the words were written very neatly, neatly to Li Xiao's amazement, it was just like a printed type. No wonder it is said that copying a book with 10,000 words costs a thousand dollars, it is indeed worth this price, it is simply a work of art.

"Good, there's nothing wrong with that."

Li Xiao said, "This book was sent by Liuxian County, and the Liu clan in Hedong is the number one scholar in the world. "Such a family of scholars has their own family traditions, and even has their own family book collection. The books they come out of, of course, can't be of the wrong quality.

"San Lang, I want to move the school to this mansion. I've seen it.,There's a lot of room in this mansion.,Just make room in the east wing of the front to make a school.,You see.。 Big eyes asked Li Xiao.

Li Xiao also thought about this question, "I was about to talk about this, now that the ancestral house has been recovered, we will live here forever in the future, and the broken babies will be more taken care of when they study here." ”

This is not only a matter of distance and proximity, Li Xiao has also considered the problem of teaching, he does not plan to just teach like a traditional private school, he has his own considerations. He had thought before that he would bear the enlightenment education of these village children, not only for the benefit of his own people, but also for cultivating some talents for himself.

Even if you just know Braille and learn arithmetic, you are actually already a good talent.

And now, thinking more long-term, he no longer has enough people to train him in literacy and arithmetic, and he also hopes to make his school a technical school, and even train this group of children as squire knights as future retainers and samurai.

At this time, the West was the dark medieval era, and at the same time, it was also the era of feudal aristocracy. The aristocratic feud and the manor economy, the popular thing is that the vassals of that set of vassals are not my vassals, and the vassals of the feudal lords are not my vassals.

The nobles would train their own knightly armament, and a feudal lord would let his knights send their young sons to the manor for training, and knightly training began at a young age.

This kind of knight squire training not only teaches the children martial arts and archery, but also teaches them knowledge, etiquette, and even a way to strengthen the relationship with the knights under him.

In fact, there is a similar situation in the Tang Dynasty, that is, the internal guards are pro-Xun Yi Sanfu, and those pro-Xun Yiwei are all selected from the nobles and the children of the bureaucrats, and let them go to the capital to serve as internal guards and serve the emperor around.

If it is just to give the children of the farmer a chance to read and write, it is too simple. But take this opportunity to let the children of the Zhuang family have the opportunity to read and open their eyes, and put them in their own mansion to educate, and carry out a training method similar to part-time work and study and half-attendant, so that they can learn culture while learning some skills, and follow Li Xiao's attendants, learn some etiquette, etc., and select the best children from them every year for key training, he feels that it is very necessary, and it is also very important for the future development of the Li family.

"I can't imagine that Saburo thinks so far." Yang Dayan has always been a poor pedant before, and he really never thought that Li Xiao was so ambitious, not only to open the eyes of the children, but also to think further.

"Very good, I think it's very good, they are all children of poor families, they are enlightened and blind when they read, but they can't just read the books of sages, they still have to learn some real knowledge, learn to settle accounts, and be able to be an accountkeeper in the future. If you learn the craft, you can still have a skill to earn a living. And while studying, I can also learn etiquette and so on, and I can also support myself, which is good. ”

Yang Dayan thought about it carefully, and also felt that Li Xiao's idea was quite good.

"It's just that I don't have any skills, so I can only teach some simple ones, and I can enlighten the children, but I have no other skills."

"Uncle Yang, you don't have to say that, in fact, it's not that complicated, there are so many people in our village, let's teach together. I am also literate and numeracy, and Mr. Zhao is still a doctor and a doctor, so let's teach together. ”

Li Xiao doesn't want all the children in his village to become blind, but he also doesn't want these children to become isolated from their parents because of reading, and he doesn't want them to end up reading into nerds who can't make a living except reading.

"You have to learn Confucianism, you have to know arithmetic, and you have to learn some martial arts, even driving a car and riding a horse." Li Xiao said.

"Listen to you, they are already bitter children, and they can't forget their books because they have the opportunity to study. While reading, learn more skills. ”

The two reached a consensus in a few words, Li Jiazhuang School will be placed in the east wing of the courtyard in the ear room, the children read and learn not only the Thirteen Confucian Classics, but also learn arithmetic, medicine, agricultural books and other miscellaneous studies, but also to learn martial arts, but also have to play the role of a boy in the Li family, serving tea and water, cleaning the courtyard, feeding horses and grass, etc.

If you don't have that talent, you won't continue to waste time, but to learn more professional technical skills.

Yang Dayan sighed, "There are thousands of landlords in the world, but there are a few who can be as benevolent as San Lang and are willing to take such trouble to consider the tenants." Not only did they have the opportunity to read books for free, but they even planned for such a long time, and it was really a blessing for them to meet an owner like you in their previous lives. ”

Li Xiao smiled, this is actually a win-win and mutually beneficial model, Li Xiao invested a little more in the early stage, but this way of cultivating talents by himself is beneficial to the Li family. These self-cultivated people must be more loyal to the Li family and have a greater sense of belonging.

Li Xiao can also get more talents, more loyal talents.

"However, this is a long-term expense, and the cost will not be small." Yang Dayan reminded Li Xiao, why have so many people not read books these years? Because of the high cost of education, many children of landlords have never gone to school.

Li Xiao opened a class, taught a group of children, and even formed a rule, so the input was endless. Not only to give the children books to read, but also to be responsible for their food and drink, this is equivalent to helping the farmers raise children, and raising so much at once, the money will never be spent.

"I'll think about money, anyway, for the time being, there are only eight of our students." Li Xiao said with a smile.
