No wonder the slender men are so surprised, literacy may not be a fuss thing in Jiangnan, after all, the old women and peddlers in Jiangnan can chant a few lines of poetry and discuss a few "Analects", but in Shandong, where the economy is good but the culture and education are not developed enough, literacy is an extremely important thing.

And this is not the most important thing, literacy has a more far-reaching political meaning: literacy can read the decrees of the imperial court, literacy can read the judgment files of the government, literacy is a ladder that can directly talk to the scholar class, literacy in this country, is a ladder leading to the upper class!

Before the era of feudal towns and martial arts dominance, literacy may not guarantee that you will be able to enter the upper echelons, but illiteracy is absolutely impossible.

What's more, it is not someone else who is literate at the moment, but a big-headed soldier who has always been looked down upon.

It is said that "a good man is not a soldier, and a good iron does not shoot nails", which is only a lower-class soldier, and the preferential treatment of an upper-class officer who is a military aristocracy has a hereditary position, which is still very desirable. The lower-class soldiers have been military households for generations, and not only have to bear heavy military burdens and economic pressures, but also are not allowed to engage in commerce and handicrafts, and even the imperial examinations, the most important way to change their fate in this era, are not allowed to participate. Therefore, no one will rush to become a soldier—no one will want to give up their status as a free citizen as long as they are not too poor to eat.

This is what Shizun and the people of Datong Society said when they gave lectures, Shizun has insight into all the Ming society, his words must be well-founded, his words must have roots, and his comments on current affairs have also been repeatedly hit, so Zhou Jun is extremely convinced of Shizun.

When the slender man in front of him heard that these soldiers of the Datong Society could read and write, his eyes suddenly changed when he looked at them. Zhou Jun can understand that literate soldiers definitely do not exist as consumables, after all, literacy is an extremely costly process, and the teachers, time, energy, and financial resources that need to be consumed in the middle are very amazing.

And these literate soldiers, as long as they don't die halfway through the road, the final future is definitely not something that a small soldier can define. I'm afraid that it may not be impossible to do that guerrillas, generals, and general soldiers!

Zhou Jun thought, in this way, being Liu Gong's soldier is not a chore, but an extremely profitable investment.

These slender men certainly can't think as thoroughly and comprehensively as they do, but they are all miserable people who have been oppressed by life, and they have a heartfelt desire to change their fate. Anything that might give him a good life is very likely to try, let alone this kind of generous treatment!

Sure enough, several slender men shouted:

"If you can read and write, they are not soldiers, they are soldiers now, and when we are recruited as soldiers, they will be officers! If Liu Gong had more people, then they would have to go up! ”

"Who says it isn't! If you are literate and still be a big soldier, the people in the world will not agree! ”

"So what are we waiting for? They can be literate, let's behave well, it may not be impossible to read! When we are literate, if we are lucky enough to make some contributions, we can also be an officer! ”

Officer! As soon as these words were uttered, everyone's eyes lit up.

It is impossible for them to serve as civil officials for their level of education, and the 600,000 scholars in the world are waiting to be officials, so how can it be their turn. However, the officers are still majestic court officials, with the privilege of tax exemption and exemption from military service, which has a fatal attraction compared to them, the precarious promotion of small people.

Although the civil and military are cheap, the official is the official, that is, one level greater than the people!

As soon as this sentence was spoken, before the words fell, the slender men ran towards the high platform, no longer caring about the slender man who "shared experience" at the beginning.

"Tempting it with profit, treating it with sincerity, encouraging it with Datong, and inspiring it with the future, how can you not train a hundred battle heroes!" Zhou Jun sighed quietly, slowly urged the white horse, and followed.

The foot of the platform was already full of people, but the Lord had not yet arrived. The silver on the high platform shimmered dazzlingly in the sunlight, burning the hearts of the greedy for money.

Rao is Zhou Jun has seen the world, and he can't help but sigh: How beautiful this silver light is!

This silver light, flickering, shaking, sparkling, like a quiet lake in spring, sprinkled with sunlight, infinite tenderness, and this lake represents infinite wealth and future, attracting everyone's hearts. Look at the white, slippery, flat surface, not a single nodule, not a single rough, not a little ugly, smooth as the top of the silk, pure white like the emperor's lime, shining like winter lightning, if you grasp with your hands, you can feel the heavy weight of silver, feel the infinite beauty of wealth!

How much I want to grab them with my hands, how much I want to carry them into my arms, even if it crushes my back, it will not be too heavy!

Zhou Jun glanced left and right, and found that the throats of the slender men were constantly stirring, as if they were forcibly enduring some irrepressible impulse, and their hands trembled slightly, as if they were suppressing some kind of unrestrained desire in their hearts.

He can understand these people, a full half million silver, can buy a small city with the wealth in front of them, how they will not be tempted!

Even Zhou Jun himself couldn't help but think about how good it would be if this money was given to him!

If I have this money, I will go and abduct Mao Mao out of the house, we will find a place to live in seclusion, buy thousands of acres of land, be a rich man, go to his country to hate family feuds, go to his Datongism, go to his father-son affection, I only need Mao Mao, as long as I can stay with that girl for a long time, as long as I can live and fly with her!

Zhou Jun thought like this, and was a little stupid for a while.

Suddenly, he slapped himself on the head: "Stupid! ”

Seeing the current momentum of the master, it is a hexagram of "the hidden dragon out of the abyss", and in the future, it is necessary to "fly the dragon in the sky". There is a saying that "one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven", Xu Laosan is a small businessman, and the master has promised him a hundred times his family property, which is seven million silver! And as the eldest disciple of the master, how can he not be sent away with seven million silver! If you take the silver and leave now, not to mention whether you can take it or not, you will have to make future generations laugh at it in the history books in the future, saying that Zhou Jun was smart for a lifetime, but as a result, he gave up his future for a little silver, which is simply stupid!

Thinking like this, his hand clenched and let go, clenched and let go, and he silently repeated in his heart: "Wait for me, Maomao!" ”

"Wait for me, Maomao!" (To be continued.) )
