Chapter 474: Compiling Textbooks and Being Born in Nanyang

In early summer, Taiwan has become very hot, even in Taipei, the temperature has reached more than 30 degrees, at noon the sun of white flowers sprinkled down, the cement floor began to smoke outward, even in the shade of the trees, blowing is also hot wind, so that I can't wait to get into the water and not come out.

In a courtyard in Keelung Niuchou Harbor, a huge sycamore tree covers half of the yard, and there is a small pond here, so it seems cooler than other places, and in a small building in the courtyard, Li Su, who is disheveled, sits on a chair, wearing only a big pair of pants shirtless, with bare feet on the table, biting a brush in his mouth, looking leisurely, but his face is full of distress.

"Alas, if I knew that there was today, I should have listened to the teacher's words in the first place, even if it was to read a few more books." Li Su sat there thinking for a long time, but finally suddenly sighed.

Taiwan's education system needs to be built, but there is a very important problem in it, that is, the compilation of teaching materials, whether it is primary or secondary school, is no longer the same set of Confucianism, so it is natural to need new teaching materials, and for the compilation of these teaching materials, Li Su originally wanted to move the things he learned in later generations, but when it came to the end, he suddenly found that he could not remember what the content of the textbook was.

In fact, it is also normal to say, for example, if you give us a math problem in elementary school, it is estimated that everyone can make it, but if you are asked to list the formulas and theorems used in this math problem, it is estimated that few people can do it. Li Su is the same, his brain is not a computer, so naturally it is impossible to remember it so clearly. So when he wrote his own textbook, he couldn't write anything after a few days. In addition, no one can help him in this matter. So Li Su could only carry it.

"Squeak~squeak~" The sound of cicadas outside the window does not make Li Su feel pleasant, in this hot weather. Instead, it only makes people feel more irritated. In addition, no matter what Li Su thinks, the most impressive thing in the classroom is the eight big characters on the blackboard, 'study hard, go up every day', as for the knowledge in the textbook, the most valuable thing to think of is the ninety-nine multiplication table and Chinese pinyin, which makes him extremely discouraged.

", no matter, I'm not here to write textbooks!" Li Su couldn't make it up by himself, and finally became angry. Indignantly pulled out the brush in his mouth and threw it away, and then put the textbooks written in the past few days together at will, these are not so much textbooks, but rather fragments of Li Su's thinking, everything he can think of in the past few days, all written down on paper, including the most valuable ninety-nine multiplication table and Hanyu Pinyin.

Li Su stuffed the mess into a paper bag, and then went outside to find Xie Chun and Hua Guang, who were the president and vice president of the education institute. To manage the construction of Taiwan's education system, they originally wanted to organize people to write textbooks, but Li Su overestimated his own level and had to write them himself. As a result, after a few days, nothing came out.

Xie Chun and Hua Guang are both very young, and they are only fifty years old when they are together. However, Li Su is a meritocracy, and there is indeed no one in his hands who can use it. So the two young people were pushed to high positions, but because of this. Xie Chun and Hua Guang both tried their best to do things, for fear that something would accidentally go wrong, and when Li Su found them, the two were studying with a group of officials from the education institute the number of primary schools opened in each county in Taiwan.

"Huh~" Li Su threw the paper bag containing the textbook in front of Xie Chun and Hua Guang, and then said calmly, "That ......, cough, this is some of the things I sorted out, originally I wanted to sort it out by myself, and then make up a set of textbooks, but the weather has been hot recently, and the king's body can't stand the heat, so it's a little uncomfortable, fortunately, the most important things have been written, you can let people sort it out, add or subtract some less important things, and you can use it as a textbook!" ”

Li Su was cheeky and said nonsense, although he relied on his rich experience and did not show his feet, but after finishing speaking, he immediately turned around and left. He was mainly afraid that if Xie Chun opened the bag and saw the contents inside, he would be exposed, although the other party didn't dare to say anything, but he would also feel that he couldn't get over his face, so he left in a hurry.

In fact, Xie Chun and Hua Guang didn't expect Li Su to be able to compile the textbook alone, so when they saw the things written by Li Su, although they felt that these things were too few and too messy, they were relatively novel, and they were also very suitable for teaching, which made them admire Li Su even more.

The work of compiling textbooks was abandoned halfway, no, to be precise, it was scrapped at the beginning. Li Su has always been a person who has a beginning and an end, so he is still a little worried about this, but soon he will not have time to pay attention to this matter, because Wenxin's delivery date has finally arrived, and his third child is finally about to be born.

Although Li Su didn't care about the distinction between concubines and concubines, in the eyes of others, this was his first child after all, so not only the people in the palace were watching, but also Concubine Yang who was far away in Chang'an, as well as Wenxin's mother, Xiao Yu and others, all stared at the birth of this child.

On May 22, the sixteenth year of Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty, Wenxin, who was pregnant for ten months, finally ushered in the delivery period, and the little guy born this time also lived up to expectations, he was a handle, and according to legal theory, he was the first heir of Li Su, that is, the prince of Qi.

For this newly-born little guy, the happiest thing is naturally Wen Xin, she was worried about giving birth to a daughter before, but now that she has become a man in one fell swoop, she can finally raise her eyebrows and no longer have to worry about others talking about herself behind her back. In addition, Li Su was also very happy about the birth of this son, after all, not to mention anything else, just letting Wen Xin go to a big heart disease was enough to make him excited.

It is also worth mentioning that the Lu Hong brothers and Hu Li, Zhou Long, and Xiao Lin and other officials from the Xiao clan in Lanling are all very happy about the birth of this little prince, although they are foreign ministers, but they are all people who belong to the princess's family, and now they see that the princess gave birth to a son, they have also gone to a heart disease, and they have worked harder to do things.

However, after being happy, Li Su faced another problem, that is, to choose a name. Originally, Li Su was ready to go back to the study to flip through the books, but Gao Zhong told Li Su that Wang Shizi was no better than other children, and Li Su was deeply favored by Li Shimin, so it was best for His Majesty, that is, to let Li Shimin, who is a grandfather, take a name.

Hearing this suggestion, Li Su was overjoyed, and immediately wrote a letter to Li Shimin, reporting the birth of the child, and asking the other party to take a name. However, before the official name was decided, Li Su gave the child a milk name, and this milk name also continued the name style of the boss Australia, but in a different place, named Nanyang.

Although the current Nanyang has not been controlled by Li Su, Li Su believes that as long as enough immigrants move from the interior, he can control the entire Nanyang in his own hands in the shortest possible time, and with the rich archipelago of Nanyang, plus millions of Han people, this will be the first foundation he has laid, and it is also the first step for him to open up, as long as he sits on the Nanyang, then the north can enter the Tang Dynasty, to the west is India and Africa, the south is the undeveloped Australia, as for the East, It is the North and South America that Li Su dreamed of going to.

Thinking of North and South America, Li Su couldn't help but be a little discouraged, Nanyang is the closest to the Tang Dynasty, of which Luzon is part of Nanyang, if there is no accident, he will soon be completely controlled by himself, and this will be his first step to control Nanyang. It's just that except for the South Seas, the rest of the places are still too far away.

For example, Australia, although it has been discovered, and gold and copper mines have been found on it, but there are still too few people who have moved there, and the population has been fluctuating at two or three thousand people, but there are indeed some people who have made a fortune because of gold panning, which has attracted many people to Australia, and I believe that with the increase in the immigrant population in Taiwan, there will be more bold immigrants to Australia to break through.

However, compared with Australia, the more distant North and South America can only appear in Li Su's dream. In addition, Li Su also knew that if he set off from Australia, he would be closer to the Americas, but there was no stronghold in Australia now, and the fleet could not be repaired and replenished at all when it arrived there, and it was not easy to go to the Americas from there.

Thinking of these, Li Su couldn't help sighing, if the steamship could run faster, then maybe he could build a supply point in Australia, and then go to the Americas from there, but unfortunately the current steamship can only run offshore, otherwise as soon as the coal is burned, it can only stop in the sea and wait for rescue.

However, it is still too early to think about the Americas, and now it is the right way to develop Taiwan, which is a fundamental place. Now with the arrival of immigrants, Taiwan's population problem will be slowly solved, then the most important thing now is the problem of education, although I have failed in compiling teaching materials, but education is a century-old plan, and I can't relax.

It is precisely because of this that after his son was just a full moon, Li Su immediately began to pay attention to Taiwan's education plan again, and primary schools in various places naturally had to be built, and under the supervision of Xie Chun and Hua Guang, coupled with the messy knowledge provided by Li Su, the compilation of the textbooks was also very smooth, and the quality was also good, at least when the samples of the textbooks were sent to Li Su's hands, he could only put forward some small revisions after reading them.

After the completion of the teaching materials, the recruitment of teachers also began to be carried out vigorously, but there are not many literate people these years, let alone teachers who can teach and educate people, so it is not easy to recruit. (To be continued.) )
