"Hahaha......"
Hearing Hao Lisu say this, Zheng Nan couldn't help laughing, and a mouthful of noodles in his mouth almost squirted out.
"I also know about the price increase of tea in Tianjing, but I don't know that there are so many stories in it." Zheng Nan covered his mouth, "I originally planned to listen to you play Zeng Zhaoyang's book, so as to find an opportunity to support you, but the result ...... As a result, you still didn't leave to praise him. ”
"Hehe, Commissioner Zheng said and laughed, where am I boasting, but just telling the truth, but ......" Hao Lisu looked at Commissioner Zheng, hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but say again, "Jiangsu Province has indeed had a surplus in finances in the past two years, and some people have seen that the new buildings that are emerging in Shanghai are good, and the streets are spacious and well-built, and they have begun to mention that they should do the same in Suzhou." It is said that it is not bad to make a city flat and straight, and it is also good to have heaven and Suzhou and Hangzhou below, so as to give people who come here from outside a better impression, and may bring a lot of benefits to the future development. Just ......"
"Oh," Zheng Nan stopped his chopsticks, "what do you mean by Governor Zeng?" ”
"Governor Zeng's meaning is not like others......" Hao Lisu said halfway through, and he smiled and went to pick up the pickles on the plate.
"Understood." Zheng Nan continued to eat noodles in small bites, "Let's talk about it, how has the Celestial Empire's 'General Learning Order' been implemented in Jiangsu, this is also your duty?" ”
"The schools at the county and township levels have covered the whole province, but it will take some time to really spread to every corner. In addition, there is also the ......" Hao Lisu is not going to say it all.
"Money is a problem!" Zheng Nan didn't raise his head, and picked up his words, "If you want to build a school and invite a gentleman, of course, you can't do without money." Especially in areas with poor geographical locations, the population is scattered, and it is still far from the villages, so it may not be easy to gather all the children in schools. Although you can hire a gentleman who is willing to dedicate himself to this cause, you must always be worthy of others. How can it be worthwhile? Obviously, it is not enough to rely on lip service, even if Mr. Ren may be willing to enjoy it, but we will not be at ease......"
Hao Lisu looked at Commissioner Zheng intently.
"So, it's still a 'money' word." Zheng Nan picked up the rice bowl, raised his head and drank the last mouthful of soup in the dry bowl, then put down the bowl, wiped his mouth, and motioned for Hao Lisu to continue eating his noodles, "Remember, unlike the cooperatives mentioned earlier, as long as the gentlemen who are willing to devote themselves to the education team, whether he is in the county or township school or sitting in the village, as long as he can make our children get rid of illiteracy and mathematics, we must raise them, and not for a day or two, but for a lifetime." Only by truly respecting teachers can we have a better tomorrow for our children. The more difficult the area, the more important it is to give the gentlemen who are rooted there higher treatment than other regions, so it is called the regional compensation. ”
"Of course, it takes a lot of money." Zheng Nan paused for a while, waiting for Hao Lisu to put the last bite of noodles into his mouth, and then continued, "At present, the Celestial Empire is in ruins, and money is needed everywhere, but the amount of money must always be spent on the blade. Trying to make the city under your jurisdiction look more prosperous is not a bad thing. But what kind of prosperity is true prosperity? Pavilions and busy traffic? I don't think that the prosperity of a city or even a country depends not on how solid its treasury is, nor on how luxurious and magnificent the public facilities it shows to outsiders, but on the inner civilization of every person it has, that is, the education that people receive, which is where the real interests and real strength lie. It is impossible for a nation that lacks the cultural literacy of the whole people to survive independently forever. ”
Hao Lisu nodded heavily.
Yes, what Committee member Zheng said was really incisive. If the two people who claimed to have created the "prosperous era of Kangqian" were raved up by the Manchurian slaves, why did the so-called "Great Emperor", "Holy Lord" and "Ming Jun", even if they could catch up with the half little finger of the Zheng member in front of them, and more than 100 years of ample time, how could China still be illiterate, and how could there be the shame of being ridden on the neck and by foreigners in later generations!
"Go back and tell you Governor Zeng," Zheng Nan smiled and patted Hao Lisu on the shoulder, "All kinds of new things can be produced in the factory, and the same is true in the school, where our successors are armed with their brains, and they are the cornerstone of our Celestial Empire for all generations." We want to build the country with diligence and thrift, but whether it is here or elsewhere, if anyone dares to use all kinds of excuses to try to 'save money' for the Celestial Empire in education, then no matter how much credit he has made in the past, this chair in front of him will not want to sit still. Also, don't always look at others, Shanghai has the particularity of Shanghai, but the new buildings started in Shanghai are only in the expatriate area, and the old city has just done some necessary repairs. Another thing you overlook is that someone is going to pay for their construction, and it's making money. In addition, urban construction is a university question, Suzhou is a city famous for its gardens, even if it is to be renovated and built in the future, it is necessary to maintain its own style, to pay attention to maintaining a high degree of harmony with the precious industries left to us by our ancestors, and to make long-term plans, which is not a casual mess with a pat on the head. ”
On the newly reinforced embankment of the Yellow River, several lanterns flickered. Lin Haifeng, Zuo Zongtang, Zeng Guofan and others followed behind the lantern, looking like they were walking leisurely. Around them, the water of the Yellow River to the east is no longer as unruly as it was a few days ago, but rippling leisurely.
In fact, they have not been "strolling" here for a while. Every once in a while, Qin Muyue, the head of the guard, would personally jump off the embankment, and by the light of the lantern in his hand, he would carefully look at the benchmark set up in the water to measure the water level, and then, he would raise a hand high and his thumb a beautiful upturn.
"I don't believe in fate, but I can't really say that there is anything strange in this darkness?" Zuo Zongtang smiled and looked at Lin Haifeng, who had always been in a very comfortable mood, "God may still have eyes." ”
"The noble man has his own blessings and blessings, and our true god prince is here, even if it is the thunder and lightning mother in the sky, and the river god in the Yellow River, it must be behaved." Zeng Guofan twisted his beard proudly, "The will of our director represents the will of heaven. ”
"Haha......" Lin Haifeng pointed at Zeng Guofan with the pipe he was holding in his hand, and his body shook deliberately twice, "My Senator Zeng, don't hold me like this anymore, okay?" Aren't you afraid that I will fall into the river in a daze? Tell you, I'm just a landlubber, and when I fall into the river, I will become the world of the river god, and he will clean up as much as he wants. ”
"It's okay, if that's the case, the old man will be the first to go down and reason with Mao Shen in the river, he dares to be disobedient, the old man ......" Zeng Guofan rolled up his sleeves, very righteous.
"Oh, when did Brother Disheng learn to be water-based, why haven't I heard about it?" Zuo Zongtang pretended to be surprised and looked at Zeng Guofan.
"Me?" Zeng Guofan laughed, "Although the old man can't play in the water, he still can't drink water?" ”
The people on the embankment laughed.
Lin Haifeng smiled and looked at the few old boatmen sitting behind him in about ten steps, and took a deep breath of moist and fresh air, "Actually, I know astronomy and geography wherever I go, it is them, our people have helped us, they are the smartest people!" ”
"Yes, as you said, the power of the people is the strongest." Zuo Zongtang admired.
"This time, the time and place are favorable, as soon as the army crosses the Yellow River, it will go straight to the white mountains and black waters, the Mongolian desert." Zeng Guofan pulled out his somewhat crooked back, and walked on the other side with pride, "The Manchu demon and its master, the Tsarist devils, will tremble in front of our powerful Celestial Empire Red Army!" ”
