When everyone came to the house, Liu Bei went straight to the point and said, "Auntie, I have something to ask my aunt's opinion about this time." ”

Geng's mother's expression suddenly became worried: "Dare to ask the young family master, what is the matter?" ”

Liu Bei smiled and comforted Geng's mother: "Don't worry, aunt, it's so, the county school will open, I want to let Geng's little brother go with Bei and be a companion, I don't know what my aunt wants?" ”

Geng's mother's eyes widened instantly, and her voice became excited by the sudden joy: "Young family master...... You mean...... Let...... My home...... Yong'er ...... Whatever you ...... Let's go ...... County school? ”

Liu Bei nodded.

Geng's mother tilted her head, and when she saw Geng Yong pulling her over, she wanted to press Geng Yong to kneel down, but Liu Bei hurriedly stopped: "Aunt doesn't have to be so polite. ”

Geng's mother still stubbornly let Geng Yong perform this kneeling salute, and then choked up: "Don't shirk the young master, the people's woman...... Whining....... ”

Liu Bei couldn't refuse, so he had to accept this gift stubbornly, and then Liu Bei and Geng's mother said some more words, and Liu Bei fled and left Geng's house.

On the way back, Liu Bei sighed, he was obviously doing a good deed, but in the face of Geng's mother's etiquette, why did he feel a little weak and ashamed?

Geng Yong's matter is almost over, and Liu Bei doesn't know how different this Geng Yong is from Jian Yong in history. "Orange is born in Huainan is orange, and born in Huaibei is orange", orange is so, and so is people.

However, Liu Bei is not worried about this, with the change of the environment, the change of people is inevitable. Moreover, in the original historical time and space, Jian Yong's arrogant and up-and-down temperament of no one except Zhuge Liang was disliked by Liu Bei from the bottom of his heart, because even if Geng Yong developed towards the original historical trajectory, Liu Bei would personally correct him.

In his previous life, when he read various YY novels of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei also had a dream of collecting various historical celebrities in advance to dominate the world and open the harem, but when he came here, he found that the dream was just a dream after all.

In this world, everyone has their own interests, and those who can leave a statement in history will never be fools, and can be easily fooled, Liu Bei does not think that he is shocked, and talks about the so-called general trend of the world, and these people will shout convincingly, "This is my lord." ”

At least before adulthood, before becoming an official and a half-job, Liu Bei did not have any expectations for recruiting talents, and it was impossible to travel thousands of miles to do stupid things such as "three visits to the thatched house", but no matter in which era, talent is the most valuable wealth and an indispensable and important factor for an organization to develop and grow.

Liu Bei naturally will not turn a blind eye to this, and his choice is to cultivate talents by himself, and Geng Yong is the first step of Liu Bei's talent training plan.

Liu Bei planned to wait for the toilet and pigsty to see some benefits, and eliminate his mother's wrong impression of his "nonsense", so he persuaded his mother to invite one or two gentlemen to teach the children in his tenant farmers, and then he chose the smarter ones to go to the county school with him, so that when he became an adult and wanted to do things, these people would be his best natural team.

The two most famous grassroots emperors in history, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty and Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, relied on many talents to fight the world as their childhood companions.

Take Liu Bang as an example, Fan Xu is a butcher who sells dog meat; The baby is a small trader; Cao Shen was a prison manager; is a small person who sells silkworm baskets, and sometimes if other people's families have white things, they will also blow the sheng to set off the sad atmosphere, and make a little money in this way; There is also Xiahou Ying, who is a coachman with an official establishment in Pei County.

However, these small people finally achieved so much, is it really like the folklore advocated by the Han Dynasty, because the mandate of heaven is in the old rascals, and these people are the stars to descend to the earth to assist the Ming Lord to reorganize the rivers and mountains?

Liu Bei, who had received a materialist education in his previous life, scoffed at this, in his opinion, it was entirely because Liu Bang knew how to use people and knew what kind of position to put a person in, and these people were able to grow rapidly under the dual effect of the suitable environment and the huge pressure from the outside world.

"Maxima often exists, but Bole does not often have, this principle has been the same since ancient times." Liu Bei, who walked to the front of the house, sighed lightly, and then pushed the door in.

……

In the next one or two months, Liu Bei mostly stayed in Liujiazhuang and was busy with his own affairs, and occasionally went to see Geng Yong, Geng Yong, after all, he was a child, and when he came down a few times, he was no longer indifferent when he saw Liu Bei again, but also had a few more smiles.

After the start of school, it was still an ordinary time, in addition to adjusting his future team on weekdays, Liu Bei buried himself in the study of scriptures, and his life was also good.

This dullness lasted until May of the fifth year of Jianning, when Liu Hong, who was in Luoyang, changed his name to "Xiping", indicating to the whole world that the Son of Heaven had officially begun to govern.

Then in the second half of this month, Liu Bei met a lost young man dressed in white in the county seat of Zhuoxian County, well, he was also leading a white horse.

On the last day of rest in May, at four o'clock in the afternoon, that is, at two o'clock in the future, Liu Bei got up on time, packed up the books and slips carefully prepared this morning, announced to his mother Wang, and left home to go to the county school.

According to the "Han Law", "the officials take a break every five days", the civil servants of the Han Dynasty can go home for a day of rest every five days of work, take a bath by the way, take care of their hair, do not get oily, and damage the prestige of the Han officials.

Of course, although there are such regulations, there is still no shortage of "hard work to forge ahead" overtime people, Emperor Xiaowu's famous minister Ji Di is a typical one, but Lu Zhi, who is in a remote place like Zhuo County, does not have such a noble sentiment for the time being, after all, if it does not reach a certain level, overtime is also in vain, and it is right to study, so Lu Zhi still has a holiday on time.

Liu Bei is familiar with the road of county school, Xiu Muri went to ask the teacher Lu Zhi for advice, Liu Bei is not the first time to do it, but today Liu Bei's pace seems to be much slower.

Liu Bei was a little distressed, and when he went down to the county school and met the teacher, how should he phrase it? No matter how he thought about it, Liu Bei felt that his behavior was a little unrepentant.

This time I went to the county school, Liu Bei went for his "Xuande Arithmetic: Primary School One, Two and Three Grades", referred to as "Xuande Arithmetic I", after a period of sorting, Liu Bei probably summarized the knowledge points of the first three grades of primary school in his previous life, and coupled with the Xuande numbers and Xuande symbols contained in it, it is no exaggeration to say that this book is a milestone in the history of mathematics.

However, just recently, when Liu Bei pretended to be at a loss and asked Lu Zhi about the problems in "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", Lu Zhi gave him advice without tactfulness: "Xuande, you should take the scriptures and righteousness as the key, and the arithmetic is the end of the way." ”

Liu Bei naturally understood that this was just a prejudice against mathematics in the times, and Liu Bei, who came from later generations, understood that mathematics with the reputation of "the mother of all learnings" and "the foundation of all learnings" was the foundation for the development of all other disciplines and technologies, and it was even no exaggeration to say that the malaise of higher physics in the 21st century was fundamentally related to the stagnation of mathematical theories.

However, due to the limitations of the times, the Han Empire, which was in an agrarian society, still did not pay enough attention to mathematics, at least in relation to the status and role of mathematics itself. The reason why Liu Bei worked thanklessly to write the article "Xuande Arithmetic" was not only to gain fame, but also to arouse people's attention to mathematics.

Liu Bei has made a plan, and after the "Xuande Arithmetic I" is handed down, he will launch the abacus again, with this popular "magic tool from the East" from the East completely detonated the academic circle at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and then slowly launched the "Xuande Arithmetic II, III, IV ......", and then further sorted out the mathematical knowledge of later generations, and issued an article to explain the importance of mathematics and its impact on all aspects of society.

"Alas, this ...... This little brother, I don't know what to call it? A sudden voice interrupted Liu Bei's hesitation, Liu Bei looked up, and saw a young man in white with a face like a crown of jade, leading a white horse and making a gesture to him.

Liu Bei can be sure that he has never seen this young man in white before today, but what the hell is that inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart?

"Little brother?" Seeing that Liu Bei was stunned, the young man in white couldn't help but speak.

Liu Bei also came back to his senses in an instant, and hurriedly replied: "Don't blame Brother Tai, but for some reason, I see that Brother Tai is very familiar." ”

The young man in white smiled: "That must be the little brother's mistake, I am from Liaoxi, but this is the first time I have come to Zhuo County." ”

"Liaoxi?" After silently repeating this word a few times in his heart, a strange emotion suddenly rose in Liu Bei's heart, and a bold guess also came to mind, so Liu Bei pretended to be normal and said: "Oh, that must be my mistake, by the way, under Liu Bei, the cursive word Xuande, I don't know the name of Brother Taigao?" ”

The white-clothed young man laughed heartily twice, and then said, "In Xia Gongsun Zhan, the cursive word Bogui." ”

Liu Bei barely suppressed the excitement in his heart, since he fought with Zhang Fei, his emotions towards Gongsun Zhan were far more complicated than at the beginning: "Then I don't know Brother Bogui, what did you call me just now?" ”

Gongsun Zhan listened to Liu Bei's address to him, and also said: "Brother Xuande, I won't tell you, I came this time on the orders of the elders in the family to find the great Confucian Lu Zigan to worship him as a teacher, but I just heard that Lu Shi is in Zhuo County, but the specific residence is unknown, so I want to ask the virtuous brother for directions." ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he looked at Gongsun Zan with a smile and said, "Brother Bogui, you are a coincidence. ”

"Brother Xian, do you mean ......" Gongsun Zhan's eyes lit up slightly.

Liu Bei nodded: "Don't hide it from Brother Bogui, Master Lu is my teacher." ”
