I have to say that good days come and go quickly, and the New Year will soon be, and Chen Fei is once again busy with work. Now that the New Year has passed, it will not be long before Chen Fei will be responsible for organizing the people to farm, which is the so-called persuasion of farming. But Chen Fei really doesn't understand these things. Chen Fei also entrusted the county Cheng Zhang Mingde to handle it, and he was very familiar with this kind of thing. Chen Fei didn't care about the county dividing his rights, because he really didn't know how to persuade farmers to teach farming, rather than grasping these so-called rights in his hands, it was better to let people who understood do it. If you don't understand it, can't you let someone who understands do it? And Chen Fei already planned to supervise the establishment of the Qiushi Academy during this time, because this is related to the education of the people in Shuo County and even more in the future.

And now the division of labor within the county government is very clear, Chen Fei has gradually delegated power, and each scribe has also been assigned clear responsibilities, so he is not afraid that they will be a mess. The entire county government office is like a machine running carefully, and it will not revolve around Chen Fei's county order as in the past. If you rely entirely on daily prefectural orders to arrange work, this is not only very inefficient, but also uninteresting. There is no need for Chen Fei to show his power, so he will take all the rights to himself, so that not only will he not get real rights, but will drag down the development of the entire county.

"Ning Shuyu, how many students have you recruited recently?" Chen Fei asked.

Ning Shuyu said: "Now that the people have heard that we are going to go through several years of teaching, and then we can teach them how to increase the yield of the fields by 30%, the enthusiasm of the people to send their children to study is a little higher." Now there are more than 200 children who have signed up to stay and study, but we don't dare to start teaching, just let them start plowing the land and come back! ”

"Why not teach? Isn't that a drag on time? Chen Fei asked.

Ning Shuyu smiled bitterly and said: "We can't help it, we don't dare to teach the children directly the simplified characters that Chen County ordered you to make." And that quill pen. We don't dare to use it directly, because if we use a chicken quill and simplified Chinese characters directly, what if the court doesn't recognize it? Before it was officially recognized by the imperial court, did we dare to start teaching these simplified characters to our students and let them use quill pens? If the imperial court doesn't recognize it at that time, won't it delay their hard study for several years? ”

Of course, Chen Fei also knew that if there was no recognition of this simplified Chinese character by the central government, it would probably be impossible to gradually implement the simplified Chinese character. After all, I don't know how many years the traditional font has been used, if the simplified characters are rashly implemented, what kind of sensation will it cause? When Chen Fei is the inventor, what kind of pressure will it cause? This Chen Fei has already guessed. That's why Chen Fei also sent the simplified and traditional Chinese comparison table to Kong Yingda, hoping that Kong Yingda could help him come forward and admit this simplified Chinese character. If there is Kong Yingda to help publicize it, the effect is very good.

Although Kong Yingda is currently only a five-grade official, he is only a middle-level official for the whole country, which is much worse than those high-ranking officials. But his identity is different, and his academic achievements are not ordinary. Kong Yingda is a descendant of Confucius, and if a descendant of Confucius comes forward to admit this simplified Chinese character in person, it can completely drive many literati to be willing to study and recognize this simplified Chinese character. Even Kong Yingda's own academic achievements are not bad. In a few years, he can become the grandmaster of Confucianism, and be able to serve as the sacrificial wine of Guozijian, the highest school in the Tang Dynasty, that is, the head of the Central Party School in later generations and the minister of education. So if he comes to "support", then Chen Fei's confidence in promoting this simplified Chinese character is much better.

"Chen Fei. Master Kong is here! Princess Wanchun came to Qiushi Academy and said.

"Master Kong? Is it Bachelor Kong Yingda? Chen Fei asked.

"Yes, it's Bachelor Kong Yingda, he came to Shuo County in person!" Princess Wanchun said.

"What? He actually came in person? Then I'll pick him up! Chen Fei said.

Chen Fei didn't expect Kong Yingda to come here in person, which shows that this Kong Yingda attaches great importance to this simplified Chinese character. And Chen Fei had to hurry up to receive it. Otherwise, it's really rude. Don't look at Kong Yingda as just a fifth-grade official, but even Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui has to call him the big brother of his life. Back then, Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui was also one of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, and it is said that their status was similar back then. Even now Fang Du and the others are the prime ministers. They all call this Kong Yingda the eldest brother, after all, Kong Yingda is old. In addition, Kong Yingda's status in the academic world is high, as long as he studies Confucianism, he cannot be disrespected, even Fang Du and the others are both from Confucianism.

"Master Kong, please!" Chen Fei hurriedly personally supported and said.

"Hehe, the old man can still walk by himself, I don't need your help!" Kong Yingda said a little coldly.

Chen Fei really wanted to slap himself, he was only in his fifties, and he was at the age of not accepting old age, so if he went to help him, wouldn't he be patting the horse's hooves?

"Chen Fei, the old man knows that you are busy with affairs, so the old man will not take the initiative to talk nonsense with you. My intention is to be able to see these simplified characters, and I also want to know how the simplified characters came from! Kong Yingda said.

Chen Fei's nonsense immediately opened his mouth and said: "Master Kong, when he was young, he had a stubborn personality, and he was often educated by his adoptive father. My adoptive father forced me to read and write, and as a result, I was a little tired of learning at that time, especially learning new words. At that time, I wondered if I could make these fonts simpler so that it would be much easier to learn. For the next many years, I quietly tried to simplify the Chinese characters, and finally I didn't expect to simplify thousands of Chinese characters in more than ten years. It's a pity that this is all stubborn when I was a child, if these simplified Chinese characters are unsightly, then please ask Master Kong to admonish! ”

Chen Fei said that his later life learning was a achievement that he was able to complete in more than ten years when he was a child, which seems more realistic. Anyway, in the troubled times back then, others couldn't verify whether it was true or not, so what Chen Fei said was what it was.

"That's it! Chen Fei, do you know the meaning of words? Kong Yingda asked.

"The meaning of words?" Chen Fei began to think about it, what is the meaning of words, and how should this be answered.
