After eating and drinking for a while, Jia Min began to assign tasks. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Now, let me talk about the division of labor in the future."

Seeing Jia Min talking about serious things, everyone began to listen carefully.

"First, Jiao Li is responsible for buying land and building houses, which should be completed within two months.

The specific things will be done according to what I told you yesterday. ”

"Second, Nan'er is responsible for the matter of making wine."

"Third, Ning'er is responsible for the matter of drilling wells, and you will also be responsible for the training of wells in the future."

"Fourth, the matter of Lingzhi is in charge of Fenghua."

"Fifth, the matter of service will continue to be in charge of Xueyue."

"Sixth, the blacksmith shop is still in charge of Liu Tieshan. Liu Cheng temporarily followed the iron, and after a period of time, he was appointed again. ”

"Seventh, Wu Hongmei continues to be in charge of pig raising."

"Eighth, Jiao Li and Ping'er should keep the accounts well, so that the records are clear and the numbers are accurate. The accounts are consistent, and the accounts are consistent. ”

"Ninth, Ping'er, as my deputy, is usually responsible for executive management, and when I'm not at home, everything is decided by Ping'er."

"Tenth, from Ming'er onwards, the two gardens are fully enclosed. No one is allowed to enter without my permission, including you. ”

"Eleventh, Liu Cheng, didn't you say that Fang Xiucai from your village is coming to visit me, just ask him to come tomorrow."

"Twelfth, don't forget to study, at the end of this month, I have to take an exam. Failing, hehe, you know, don't blame me for being unkind when the time comes. ”

"Don't worry, Fourth Master, just like you said, it's all for us to learn by ourselves, we understand this reason."

General Liu Tieshan said that now he is full of learning energy, and he is working harder than young people like Nan'er.

"It's good to understand, okay, I'll go back and rest first, you can be happy for a while, so that I am here, and you are restrained."

Jia Min was also a little dizzy from drinking, so he went back to sleep.

The village where Liu Cheng is located is called Liujia Village.

Fang Xiu is the largest landlord in Liujia Village, with more than 300 acres of fertile land. Since the age of 12, he has been admitted to the children's examination, and at the age of 20, he has been selected for the show, and since then he has participated in the imperial examination many times, all of which have been returned, and he is still only a showman.

However, because he is a landlord, his family has some property, and there is a pawnshop in the city, so he is one of the largest families in the village.

Hearing that even Liu Blacksmith and Liu CD began to learn literacy, Fang Xiucai was quite curious about Jia Min. told Liu Cheng several times that he wanted to come to meet Jia Min, but because he had no time, Jia Min arranged to meet today.

Because of Xiucai's fame, Fang Xiucai didn't kneel when he saw Jia Min. He is also a cheerful person, and after being polite, he got straight to the point.

"I heard that the fourth master is using a set of Chinese pinyin, and even Liu Blacksmith and Liu Cheng have learned seven or eight hundred words in a month, and the contemptible people are very curious, can you see it?"

Jia Min was very happy to have a cultural person to discuss it, so he told Fang Xiucai about the relevant matters of Chinese pinyin.

The biggest feature of Hanyu Pinyin is that it can greatly improve the efficiency of literacy, which happens to be what Fang Xiucai values the most.

Of course, the pronunciation of the pinyin alphabet is the first level and the most difficult level. As long as you pass this level, it will be much easier to do in the future.

Fang Xiucai was literate, and Jia Min told him for a while before he understood the idea.

In the past, when learning pronunciation, I used the method of cutting rhyme.

For example, the word "square" is divided into two parts: the initial f and the vowel ang. The initials can be used in a more common word, such as anti-"word", and the finals can also find a more common word, such as "Tang", and the pronunciation of the last "square" is marked as "anti-Tang cut".

In this way, it is not only inefficient, but also often leads to a dead end. The premise is that the words "anti and Tang" must be pronounced first. It's easy to form a circle.

As soon as he saw the increasingly excited expression on Fang Xiucai's face, Jia Min knew that this Fang Xiucai was tempted.

Previously, he had been with Liu Cheng. Liu Tieshan talked about this Fang Xiucai together and analyzed him.

He is a person with a good character, although his family is rich, he is not a rich and unkind person, and he often does something to help the poor.

He is also a scholar, since he is not short of money, what he lacks now is fame. If you want to gain fame, one is to continue to take the road of the imperial examination, raise people, and then enter the scholar.

There is another way, which is to study and teach and educate people.

For Fang Xiucai, the previous road seems to be not going well, and he has not participated in the imperial examination in the past two years, so he seems to be a little disheartened.

If you want to become famous, teaching and educating people is the best choice for him.

There are also two ways to teach and educate people. The first is to take the route of elite education and cultivate talents for the imperial examination.

The second is to take the route of basic education, just like Jia Min is doing to his team now, to carry out literacy and basic arithmetic education, which is enlightenment education.

This road is quick to produce and easy to popularize. It's also very simple to operate. As a teacher, it's easy to be famous.

Jia Min decided to pull Fang Xiucai into the gang. This guy is likely to become one of his right-hand men in the future.

However, Fang Xiucai still needs to try his strength first.

Today's scholars have a very bad temper, and they are always pretentious, and if they look down on people, they don't want to be driven by others.

For people like Fang Xiucai, the best way to show their strength is to write poetry.

So, Jia Min wrote the song "Midnight Song".

"This is a small poem written by accident below, and I would like to ask Mr. to correct it."

Fang Xiucai saw it, and his face changed.

"The fourth master is such a masterpiece, there are few people in the world who can compare, Fang admires, admires. Can you give it to the next, go back and play carefully. ”

"I gave it to my husband. At first sight, I had some heartfelt words with my husband, but I wanted to talk to Mr. from the bottom of my heart. I wonder if the gentleman is willing? ”

"Yes, yes."

"My Hanyu Pinyin scheme, if it can be promoted, is a supreme merit. If it attracts the attention of the imperial court in the future and is implemented, it will definitely be the world. It's just that I have a lot of chores, and I don't have time to take care of them for a while. I think Mr. is a very good candidate, and if he were to handle this matter, it would be a beautiful thing to leave a name in history. ”

Fang Xiucai had some insight in the end, and naturally realized what this meant.

If this thing is done, not only will it become famous all over the world, but it will indeed be worth leaving a mark in history.

"Fourth master, you, do you mean me?"

"Not yourself, of course, it's the two of us. However, it will be up to you from now on. ”

"I am willing to do it, the fourth master is so loving, dare not to be smeared? Sooner rather than later, when can this be done? ”

Fang Xiucai didn't even think about it, and then decided.

"Naturally, the sooner the better, but I don't have enough houses here, I'm afraid it will have to be delayed for a while."

"I have a house at home, more than 20 rooms, all of which are idle, so I can move in after a little tidying up."

"That's great, but I'm afraid it's inconvenient."

"Where would it be inconvenient? My house is lonely, and there are some sounds of reading every day, and I am a little angry. If the number of people is small, food and accommodation can be borne by the following. ”

"Sir's intentions are good, but in the future, when there are many people, the cost of food and accommodation will be a large amount. I have an idea. ”

"Fourth master, come quickly."

"If it's a child from a middle-aged or above family, we can take some restraints. If it is a poor family, it can be exempted from food and shelter, so that the rich can help the poor, which can be afforded and lasting. If it is a poor family, in addition to having no money, the children also have to work. Parents are afraid that they may not let their children come, but if they give their children some subsidies, they can not only be literate, but also get some silver taels, and their parents will support them. ”

"This plan is very good, I can also come up with some silver taels."

"Naturally, I can't ask you to come out by yourself, I can also give some out, this one, let's give it a name, how about calling it a bursary?"

"Bursary? Well, it is also the wish of the saints to help the children of poor families study, and it is precisely the act of education. ”

"The name of this school, I did think of one, there is a clan school in the lower mansion, which was originally for the children in the mansion to read and write. Our school is called the Clan Academy. In the name of Fuzhong, it is better to spread out. ”

"I have the name of the house. It's good. Just listen to the arrangement of the fourth master. It's just that this Chinese pinyin, I want to take a good look at it. ”

"I have classes here every evening, and my husband can come as long as he wants. Jiao Li and Ping'er can also teach you. With the qualifications of the gentleman, it can be learned in three days at most. It's just one thing, after our branch is opened, please pay attention to it and find a few more gentlemen. ”

"What does the fourth master mean?"

"In the first issue, I'm afraid there won't be too many people. However, as long as the first phase is over, others will flock to it when they see the effect, and when the time comes, Mr. will not be able to resist it alone, so he must take precautions and plan early. ”

"I know all the Xiucai and Tongsheng in these ten miles and eight villages, and there are seven or eight of them, after the school opens, I will call them to watch, and they will naturally be interested."

After studying for a while, Fang Xiu couldn't wait to go back to planning.

Except for the noble family like Jiafu, which can be hereditary, the only way for others to get ahead is through the imperial examination.

In this era, for most people, reading is a luxury.

Under the conditions of a subsistence small-scale peasant economy, a labor force does not participate in production, but takes a part-time job to study, which is also a gamble for a family.

As for the reasons, one is that the prospect is uncertain, and if you invest a lot of energy, you will not be able to get a reputation in the future, which is an investment failure. Second, the investment cycle is too long and the return is too slow.

Therefore, although there are many people who want to study, many people are discouraged by it.

Hanyu Pinyin is the best tool to solve the long literacy cycle.

However, it is only literacy, or just an enlightenment education, and there is still a long way to go before it can be passed the imperial examination or even obtain fame.

The vast majority of people are still unable to enter the official career. In the eyes of those here, the previous books were read in vain.

In fact, how can a book be read in vain? It's just not in the right place.
