Chapter Seventy-Seven: Suxia's Limited Sovereignty System (9)
After sending Yu Qian'er away, Chen Jian inspected the land on the opposite side of the headland island, selected the location of several future village farms along several tributaries, and after a period of time, selected those who were suitable for work, and then divided those that were not suitable into large and small farms, so as to break the management of small farmers, so as to facilitate the popularization of cattle and horse farming techniques.

The brick-burning work continued, and after the first batch of red bricks came out of the kiln, Redfish led the people to start building a wide brick wall as he said, like a screen, which could be seen from the pier.
When the huge learning words were brushed up, Chen Jian nested in a wooden house and didn't care about the affairs of the headland island.
In the hut, several men were using large adzes to plane the pieces of wood and roast them over the fire, and six or seven women were carefully cutting a notch in the upper end of the pieces of wood and drilling a small hole in the red-hot copper.
Thin pieces of hemp rope and leather were threaded through small holes, and pieces of wood one by one, half an inch long and half an inch wide, were joined one by one, and finally rolled together.
The sound of clattering wood chips made Chen Jian reverie, this is the first book in this world, at this time it is still wordless, a piece of white flowers, piled up in half a room.
Chen Jian took out the brush, asked someone to get the pine ink, and lifted the pen with some trembling, knowing that at this time he was creating something that could be passed down through the ages—the first book of the cultural circle or the entire unknown world.
Because Xia Cheng's writing was written on the wall with charcoal rather than bronze from the beginning, there were not so many sharpness suitable for knife engraving, and the simplified characters were not too difficult to write, most of them were simplified pictograms and a small amount of understanding.
Lifting the pen to suppress the excitement in his heart, and after calming down for a while, Jian Chen raised his hand and wrote a few lines.
"One to two or three miles, four or five families in the mountain village, six or seven children, eighty or ninety flowers."
"Autumn comes, wheat yellow, white dew. The geese fly south. Or people, or one. ”
"When you are pregnant with a child, you can plant gourds and beans; The white dew is early, the cold dew is late, and the autumn equinox is just right to plant wheat. Rain in the morning, sunset in the evening......"
"In the morning, the sun is in the east and the shadows are in the west. In the evening, the sun is in the west and the shadows are in the east. ”
…………
He wrote a total of seven or eight poems, as much as possible in line with the rhyme of this era, simple can not be simpler, but contains a lot of things, this is what he began to ponder a few years ago, when the red fish was still a hostile clan priestess, so many years later, it can finally be used.
In the first article, there are numbers from one to ten, and when determining the pronunciation of the characters, Chen Jian deliberately took only the initials and finals of the most common words as the reverse syncopation in the future in order to improve literacy.
Including Mai, which is read as Ji, and Iron which is read as special, it took him three or five years to carefully gather enough things that he knew would be common to everyone in their daily lives in the future.
The Mengtong books in the previous life are heaven and earth Xuanhuang, not bad, but not suitable for this era, and not suitable for large-scale promotion, although the beauty between the lines is intoxicating, but it is not a lower riba person.
The first one he copied was simple and ridiculous, but there was not a single word that was repeated, and each one was a rhyme word that he had chosen before.
Keeping the first article in mind, at least the clansmen will recognize ten numbers, and know that the unit of measurement in Xia Cheng is li, the land that is one mile long and one step wide is one acre, and the width of one step is the width of two ditches.
And it also popularized the grammar of Xia Cheng - measure words, a flower, not a flower, not a flower, not a flower.
After writing the first article, Chen Jian wrote the annotation of the first part on another volume of wooden tablets, which led to the system of weights and measures, the grammaticus of the measure from Yizhihua, and a large number of after-class exercises.
After writing for a long time, I only finished the commentary on the first article, and finally wrote the words "fifteen days" at the end, which means that it is not too difficult for people to recognize these ten words within fifteen days.
As for the second part, it is to inspire people to think: the connection between autumn and the southward flight of geese, and at the same time lead to the solar term of white dew.
In the remarks of the second part, there are explanations of spring, summer, autumn and winter, the various solar terms of the summer city, and various manifestations of the rotation of the four seasons.
After the second part is followed by a note of "fifteen days", the second part leads to various agricultural terms in the third part, which once again deepens the division of solar terms and introduces the concept of the calendar.
As a continuation of the second article, the third article still inspires learners from the perspective of observing the world, and I believe that those who have studied these articles will definitely observe the connection between morning and evening sunset and sunny rain.
The production of science is to start from observation, and to find out the law by observation, and this law conforms to all observations, and this descriptive view of science is enough to support the unity of science and philosophy, and before a second person can understand the "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy".
The fourth part is still a continuation of the third part, which introduces the concept of southeast, northwest, and the relationship between the sun and the southeast, northwest, and on this basis, sublimates to the light worship of the great rivers and the connection between flowers and flowers.
The rest are almost the same as these four articles, a total of eight articles, ridiculous and naïve, a little less of the romance of the literati, a little more of the simplicity of the lower classes, no subtlety, only scribbled and short.
After Chen Jian finished writing, he counted and determined that the simplest vowel words had been written in the first six articles, and the seventh article began to have the simplest tangential pronunciation, and every word that he did not recognize after learning the first six articles had a phonetic pronunciation in the seventh and eighth articles.
The total time to complete these eight articles is half a year, and the last two of them need to take two months, mainly to contact the phonetic spelling, to figure out the difference and connection between the sound and the word, and to use a few common radicals as the first batch of radicals, so that the learner knows the connection between the side and the object.
In addition to Chinese, there are three courses, among which simple addition and subtraction, mathematics and Chinese synchronization are required for all learners. The other two courses were labor and military training, mainly for the children of the various clans who were about to be sent here to study.
In the morning, there is Chinese and mathematics, in the afternoon is labor and military training, and the examination system inherited from Xia Cheng will also be strictly implemented: after half a year, all the children of the nobility are required to know all the vowels and rhymes, be able to spell out unrecognizable words by cutting sounds, and be able to calculate addition and subtraction within a hundred.
As for those free slaves, Chen Jian will not force them to study for the time being, because he can't afford to support so many full-time students, but he will give lectures at night, and all people who are not slaves can come to listen to the lectures, and use this spontaneous behavior to stimulate this learning atmosphere with material rewards and status rewards after half a year, and even in the way that you can receive an extra half a catty of corn every day by knowing fifty words.
After staying up for three days to finish writing the templates for these textbooks, Jian Chen took the first volume of wooden tablets and found young people who had studied in several schools in Xiacheng for a year or two, such as Ji Bai.
Ji Bai used a pottery board and talc sticks when he learned to write, and he had never seen a wooden tablet written into a book, and he was so frightened that he held it in both hands after opening it, for fear that this thing would fall to the ground.
"Do you recognize?"
"I recognize."
"Read."
"One goes, two or three......"
After reading a few articles in a row, Jian Chen asked again, "What does it mean to understand?" ”
"Of course I do."
"How did you get here?"
"A thousand steps is a mile."
"What is the relationship between that acre and a mile?"
"One step wide and one mile long is one acre."
"How long is a step?"
Ji Baileng paused for a moment, scratched his head, and suddenly realized, took off the turban from his body and said: "There are rules in Xia City, the soldier's turban is one step long and half a foot wide. ”
After unfolding it, he pointed to the long turban and said, "This is the step." ”
"Why a step?"
"Because when exchanging cloth and land, everyone's steps are different, so I choose the same step. It's the same two-step, and there is a lot difference between children and adults. ”
"You just said rules, what are rules?"
"A gauge is a ruler that is used to draw circles. A moment is a rectangular ruler that is used to draw squares. Without rules, you can't draw a real circle. ”
After finishing speaking, he glanced at Jian Chen, and saw him smiling, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ji Xia, are you testing me?" ”
"It's not about you, it's about me. If you can understand it, even if I passed the exam. Go, hold this thing well, let Hongyu find a few women who manage the number with her, and there are wooden tablets in the house, and copy the first hundred volumes. Whoever copies the fastest and the most, let the red fish write it down. (To be continued.) )
