Chapter 8: Running a College

(Thank you for the book friend "Holy Spirit Flying Feather" for the reward, and ask for tickets in the new week~)

"What?" Cai Yongwei screamed, looking at Lu Bu with an incredible gaze, and that gaze made Lu Bu feel as if he was being looked at as an idiot.

That's right, in Cai Yong's opinion today, Lu Bu, who would put forward such an idea, his first reaction was to be identified as an idiot, a big idiot.

What do you think? Running an academy, but if it was just that, it wouldn't surprise Cai Yong, but Lu Bu's idea was to run a so-called academy that didn't distinguish between high and low like Confucius's private school.

Although since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty when Dong Zhongshu went to Chen to "depose the hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism", Confucianism began to gradually lean towards the position of the mainstream of culture, but the status of Confucius is obviously not as it was later, directly pushed to the height of the sage, but it is also because the Han Dynasty ruled the country with Confucianism, so the status of Confucianism has been improved, Confucianism is more familiar to people, and the deeds of Confucius as the founder are also widely spread.

Cai Yong is actually a Confucian student, because he is the deepest knowledge, it is the Confucian "Spring and Autumn" scriptures, and it is for this reason that he has made all kinds of efforts to compile history, and he will not be unfamiliar with the educational ideas of "education without class" and "teaching according to aptitude" advocated by Confucius, but as a child of a family, not to mention his own attitude, his understanding of the current situation also makes him very clear about the difficulty of this kind of thing.

There is no doubt that the resistance will be great, after all, since Guangwu Zhongxing nearly three hundred years ago, the Han Dynasty has been difficult to return to the Wudi period to expel the Xiongnu and seal the wolf Juxu's exploits, and the most rapid development in the past few hundred years is not its political system, not its economic level, nor in culture, but in the monopoly of major local families, due to the relatively stable general trend of the world, those original meritorious or local heroes who have risen by virtue of the situation, have developed and grown, If it is said that hundreds of years ago, they may have been nouveau riche, but after hundreds of years of survival of the fittest, one thing and the other, the places that really rose from it are all really powerful and well-established family forces, they firmly control the local politics and economy, especially the culture of the world, and once united, the terrible energy is not to be underestimated by the imperial court and the government.

And after the ups and downs, these family forces are still able to hold most of the power in the world, and one of the main reasons also comes from their own monopoly on the academy and culture.

One of the most important reasons for this is that it also depends on the current level of science and technology, although since Cai Lun began to transform paper, there has been a trend of replacing bamboo slips, law carving, etc. to become the mainstream of book carriers, but first, the quality of this paper is not so good, and its manufacturing technology is controlled by the family.

And because printing has not yet been created, the dissemination of books is now mainly based on transcription, and this kind of thing always needs to be done by readers, and ordinary people have never read books and read at all, and they have no opportunity to come into contact with these at all.

In addition, there is a very important point, the so-called literati are light, and their own things are not so easy to take out, unless Cai Yong writes books and compiles history, or Zheng Xuan's commentary on the scriptures, Lu Zhi's acceptance of apprentices, etc., the degree of circulation is limited to a certain range, and in this process, after the reciprocating cycle, people from the family have a natural advantage to be able to contact the cultural level. Lu Cui is also because of the intersection with Cai Yong.

So from the perspective of these factors, Lu Bu's idea is not only not practical operational, but also a bit whimsical, after all, the family has relied on these, if Dong Zhuo is just dissatisfied with them, plus because of his great power, he can still endure it, then Lu Bu is digging their foundation, how can they sit idly by? …,

But Lu Bu didn't seem to take this to heart, he even took Cai Yong's reaction into account, fortunately it was not unexpected, for him to be so surprised, Lu Bu was also mentally prepared, and even found an explanation himself, "Master Cai, don't be surprised, and listen to Bu slowly......"

Cai Yong was a person with excellent demeanor after all, so he quickly adjusted, although he was still surprised and disbelieving, and even thought of persuading Lu Bu, but when he heard Lu Bu say this, he still waved his hand and motioned for him to continue.

Lu Bu coughed lightly and said, "Master Cai may think that Bu is whimsical, after all, although the Han family also has such a talent as Wen Wei, but reading is mostly monopolized by the family, and they will not allow Bu to do this, which is equivalent to challenging their status." In fact, Bu also knows that it is indeed difficult at this time, but he feels that it is not impossible, the reason why the family controls the academy is just to protect the interests of each family, one culture, classics under its control, it is equivalent to holding the world's thoughts, but also the mouthpiece of the world, and the other is to enter the house, and then speak of the world, as the center of power, and the family after death also benefited, continuing the qi. But Bu's move is not to open the way for the poor, nor to pave the way for the subversion of the family, but more for himself. Presumably, Master Cai knew Bu's situation at this time, and if it wasn't urgent, he wouldn't have brought up this discussion. Of course, Bu Ye has already said, and when he talks about it with Cai Shi at this time, he just has to refer to it in detail, if it is impossible to do it, Bu naturally has other plans. ”

"So...... What does Bongxian mean? In fact, Lu Bu didn't know why, Cai Yong's attitude towards himself has always been very good, and sometimes it even made him see things in Cai Yong's eyes to raise the illusion that a loving elder looks at a younger generation - of course, he later knew that this was not an illusion.

Hearing Cai Yong's question, he smiled and continued: "Bu is thirsty for talents, I'm afraid Cai Shitong guò has been able to understand a thing or two these days, although the family has many talents, but it is not for my use, and if it is not for various limitations, Wen Wei is a living example, so this is also an idea that Bu is forced to helpless now......"

For Cai Yong, Lu Bu didn't hide much, he was indeed telling the truth in this regard, because his most direct goal was indeed to get talents through this move, isn't your family unwilling to follow me? Then I will cultivate my own talents, and the children of the poor family can't say that it is better; But the real big plan in his heart is, of course, he won't talk about it with Cai Yong.

Cai Yong is worried about the country and the people, and it is good to have great ambitions, but he has a relationship that naturally makes Lu Bu have to avoid him, that is, his background, he is also from a family, and there is no reason to suppress the family, as for whether he will see that Lu Bu is not worried at all, because he has never been afraid that his true intentions will be seen out, the question is what if he can see it?

Talking about this with Cai Yong, Lu Bu doesn't want to be able to impress him, but he just hopes that he can also use some of his insights in this kind of thing, and even borrow his connections and energy when necessary, after all, if it is really necessary, Cai Yong still has a certain influence among Shilin, especially this kind of thing, at least those children of the poor family who directly benefit will hold high the banner and agree.

As for the true attitude of the family at that time, will Lu Bu care?

On the surface, he and Cai Yong are talking about ideas, but in fact, he has made up his mind, this is not a building, but a plan, it is mandatory, and Cai Yong said that in addition to really wanting to refer to it, it is also to test the bottom line of those people.

In short, they can secretly do their hands and feet, but they can't not fail to implement them, and as for Lu Bu, they also have a way to deal with them, and they are not afraid at all.
