146: A book on the old learning
"Everything is inferior, only reading is high. That's a good thing, but what's so good? Because everyone knows that what they learn what we call the old school can make people famous and eventually get ahead in the official ranks, in a sense, they are right, our new children end up working in factories and farming......"
"But here's the problem, can you really cultivate yourself and govern the world by learning those old learnings? If you think about what we used to do, we were tired of working but couldn't fill our stomachs, and we had millions of soldiers but were repeatedly plundered by foreign enemies. Will there be so many people in the north who will make trouble? Will the country be so bad? ”
Deng Shifeng's tone was not too heavy, but it was heavy in the hearts of all the students, nine out of ten of these students had experienced the kind of bitterness that Deng Shifeng said, although it was far away from the war-torn north, but after so many years of basic education, this national consciousness and patriotic education had long been implanted in their thoughts.
"It is true that we must admit that there are still praiseworthy things in the old learning, but take a good look, in addition to the traditional virtues of Taoism, virtue, goodness, and filial piety, there are teachings in the old learning about how to farm? Have you taught people how to produce? Is there a better way to teach people how to live? Is there a way to teach people how to explore the unknown? - Nope! These things are the fundamental problem that makes people live - labor! Because only labor can we harvest, and only labor can make our lives better! ”
And the old pedants don't say a word about this, why is that? Because in their old school world, reading is not for labor, so for what? - It's for being an official! ”
"It's good to be an official...... There is no need to produce, there is no need to face the loess with his back to the sky every day, just sit on the top of the court and move his mouth to pat the shocking wood, so it is not majestic, it is not easy...... And even if there are thousands of people under the rule of a county official, if you do well in the future and continue to climb up, maybe one day you will be able to achieve the position of the first auxiliary minister, one person under ten thousand people, and the glory of the ancestors will be left for eternity! ”
Speaking of Deng Shifeng, he gently tapped the desktop with his fingers, and emphatically said:
"The reason for being an official is to detach himself from production and labor in a grand manner, and to exploit the labor income of the people under his rule under the most high-sounding excuse!!"
"If someone says in the future that the officials of the Ming Dynasty dare not be greedy because Taizu hates the official greed, then you can tell him that in the past dynasties, the official eunuch did not have such thousands of acres of fertile land in his family. It's not passed on to the common people! Why do they occupy the best fertile land and land, but they do not have to bear the obligations that a country imposes on its own people?! ”
"Because they're parents! It's really a parent official, and the people below are going to support their parents!! I am a common man, farming and paying silver to support a bunch of waste who can only eat and can't do things, and in the end I will be more filial than my father like them...... I'm going to it! How cheap I am! Kindness...... I forgot that in the mouths of officials, we ordinary people are Diao people and untouchables!! ”
Deng Shifeng rarely burst into foul language in front of the students, but the students below did not think that Deng Shifeng's foul language would lower his image, on the contrary, they felt very cool when they heard their teacher point out the source of the fact that they and their families were not as good as pigs and dogs before!!
Let's look back at the sentence: everything is inferior, only reading is high. High! It's so high! Because you can become an official by reading the old school, you can live without production and labor just by parasitic on the people like a locust to suck blood, and you can also ride on the heads of the people as a prestige and blessing, you say, who doesn't want to do such a good thing in the world!! ”
Wow...... Suddenly, the students were depressed for a long time with Deng Shifeng's speech, and the emotions that broke out with this sentence that seemed to be scolding and laughing, everyone understood some things in laughter, and there may be many things that have not been thoroughly understood or Deng Shifeng has not said more thoroughly, but thinking is not something that can be instilled at one time, and needs to be formed and established little by little......
"We do not deny the advantages of the old learning, but we also have to admit the shortcomings of our new learning; But no thing is perfect, only to constantly explore and change to perfect it, our new learning, is to absorb the old traditional loyalty, filial piety, courtesy, kindness, virtue on the basis of the slow development, in addition to the traditional virtues of the church is more focused on the exploration of the unknown world, the core is to change our life, so that we live better. Knowing how to increase food production in the new school can make people harvest more, the new learning can allow us to have more convenient tools and tools to improve our labor, and the new learning can give us better weapons to defend our homeland and even our country. ”
"Can't!! Because the old school has lost its original pioneering ideas, the old school only insists on indulging in the glory and greatness of the past but does not want to forge ahead. And Xinxue is to teach people how to observe the world and create more convenient things to help us. KitKat Silver ...... This is what the old pedants say about our new learning, and they disdain the dedication and wisdom of the workers in our factories, but do you all know? The luxury goods produced in our factories, these so-called orthodox defenders, were the first to buy and enjoy! I'm going to fuck it, if you're really so disdainful, why are you so shameless!! ”
Deng Shifeng's revelation of the sales secret caused the students to laugh again, and with these laughter, their self-confidence began to grow stronger, and their disdain for the old school and those orthodox defenders who only knew pleasure and did not know production.
"Students, all of you can feel that the managers and the personnel of the service agency under our rule are all new officials who have been educated by the new school, and compared with the officials who have been taught by the old school, you can immediately see the difference between the two, and they are completely superior to those officials who have come out of the orthodox old school in terms of work ability and ideological conduct, and in the future, with the continuous development and growth of our family, many of you will also become a part of them through special training and education; And why can't we let more people out there live like we do, so I want to say: "
"If the world of old learning can't accommodate us to learn new, then we will destroy it and build a new world!" At that time, all the officials who are in office, no matter how big or small, will have to undergo a new education, so that those old antiques who only know acid poetry will cry when they look at the exam questions of what is called photosynthesis and what is called the golden section of trigonometric functions! The world of the future belongs only to those who have the courage to move forward and keep forging ahead!! ”
As Deng Shifeng waved his arm vigorously to drop the last sentence, all the students in the audience stood up and gave thunderous applause, and all the students clapped their hands excitedly to vent their inner excitement.
Deng Shifeng's words spread throughout the school on the same day, and reached the ears of more workers and peasants through evening classes that night, and the next day, a batch of newspapers copied overnight were sent to various schools, service cooperatives, and factory units under his rule. Everyone talked about the criticism of the old school and the prospect of the future of the new school in these words, and some people were shocked and inspired by the vision of a new world conveyed in these words, and they understood a bigger and broader world from these words!
Following some of the effects of this speech, the first newspaper of the mountain village began to appear, and its main function was to report on some administrative affairs of the mountain village, and at the same time to publicize the events that happened in the land under the mountain village's rule, and to explain some common knowledge about hygiene. By this time, universal education had been rolled out, the literacy rate had been greatly improved, and the things that were reported were things around us, newspaper sales were very good from the beginning, and the village's own media and mouthpiece system began to be established, but this is a story for later.
What I have to say here is that Deng Shifeng didn't know that his words and the actions of his speech at that time, especially the image of Qi Yu Xuanang waving his arm at the end, were deeply imprinted in everyone's minds, and also imprinted in Zeng Ruoyi's heart, who was squeezed to the window to watch all this......
To put it bluntly, Deng Shifeng's words are completely real deviant or even a rebellious declaration, it is said that Zeng Ruo should also avoid such people and even refute them loudly, but Deng Shifeng's criticism of the old school is bloody, and Zeng Ruoyi is difficult to refute even if he wants to......
And in her heart, some things that have been suppressed for more than ten years have begun to be shaken in the past few days in the mountain village, looking around the lifeless and trivial world outside, and then looking at the thriving and vibrant world in the mountain nest, she is even faintly looking forward to the early arrival of the new world that Deng Shifeng said......
It's just that the frenzied atmosphere of the scene made Zeng Ruoyi, who originally planned to find Deng Shifeng to solve his doubts, could only watch Deng Shifeng, who was sent away by the students like a hero, and was very reluctant to let Zeng Ruoyi leave before leaving, but she had been out for a long time and had to return as soon as possible...... (To be continued.) )
