Fighting the autumn wind?
Luo Zhenyù listened to Yan Fu's ridicule, and he was also helpless, "That's right, this must also be the first in the country"
"How do you fight the autumn wind? Who are they? XT eBook Download**
Luo Zhenyù replied, "At the beginning of the school's establishment, didn't the school welcome foreign students to observe and borrow? Moreover, according to the regulations, study rooms, classrooms, laboratories, and libraries are all open to the public. At the beginning, the school was located in the mountains, and it was lonely, so naturally no one came. Now the school is famous, and outsiders are gradually knowing the rules that Jin Wu can't help but use, and every day the campus is like a bazaar, and the traffic is like weaving."
"Lots of people?"
"A lot," Luo Zhenyù replied with great certainty, "It's the Chinese New Year, so naturally I can't see it." In normal times, at least a few hundred people are hanging around the campus at this time."
Sun Yuanqi was very pleased: "So many people come to borrow and audit, which fully shows that our school is famous and the teaching quality is high." In this way, it can not only improve the reputation of the school, but also enhance the students' sense of competition, and fulfill the social responsibility of the university, which is a good thing."
"Where," Luo Zhenyù said with a wry smile, "if they all come to borrow and listen, we will naturally welcome them." The key is that the outsiders are mixed, good and bad, which really makes people scratch their heads."
"Oh?"
"Although there are a large number of outsiders, they can be broadly divided into three categories." Luo Zhen yù explained: "This first category is what Mr. Jidao said 'fighting the autumn wind', the most hateful thing to say is to blame Baixi, the place chosen is really good, plus the later construction is also beautiful, chūn days are prosperous, the summer is quiet and cool, the autumn is full of red leaves, the winter moon is warm and pleasant, and the whole school is like a big park." Coupled with the freedom to come and go, the children of the Eight Banners and the scoundrels in the capital can be regarded as finding a good place for pastime and leisure, and when it is hot, they come here to escape the summer; It was cold, and they went into the classroom to get cold. Every autumn day, they would call their friends and sell wine with them, and a group of people would go into the school to find a good place, and regardless of the perception of others, they would set up a position to eat, drink and have fun. If it's just eating and drinking, we will endure it, and the key is that they still climb the huā grass, make noise, throw garbage, and defecate everywhere...... It's just a pity."
Luo Zhenyù, who has always been good-natured, also gritted his teeth a little when he said this, and he was afraid that Sun Yuanqi would not believe it, so he said, for example, "Let's talk about what happened on this year's chūn day." The year before last, the school admitted a few more Japanese students, and the Japanese minister and Tokyo Imperial University specially donated 150 cherry trees to express their gratitude. ”
Sun Yuanqi remembered this very clearly, because after the one hundred and fifty cherry huā trees were delivered, they were transplanted on both sides of the path behind Tong Wenlou. After hearing about the origin of Tong Wenlou, the Japanese minister came to Cháo on a whimsical basis, and sent another torii gate to stand on the path, and the plaque of the torii gate reads two big characters Sakura. Sun Yuanqi, a southerner, saw these two words, how to pronounce them and how to feel awkward. Is it a Japanese bad taste? Or is it too psychologically distorted? In the end, I asked Yang Shoujing to inscribe "Sakura Huā Road" to replace the plaque, so that I could get rid of the grievances in my heart.
Because of this incident, Sun Yuanqi was particularly impressed by those cherry blossoms. As soon as Luo Zhenyù mentioned it, he had already remembered it.
Seeing Sun Yuantou, Luo Zhenyù continued, "After a year of growth, those cherry blossoms have finally bloomed this year. In full bloom, the trees are full of flowers, like clouds and clouds, chūn wind blows, falling flowers are colorful, and the end is yàn li. As a result, the group of broken households came to find it, not only brought wine and food, but also specially went to the Bada Hutong to invite fans to come to drink, pretending to be poetry and wine. What's more, when the wine is hot, they climb up the tree, pick up all the cherry blossoms on the branches, and throw them at each other, thinking that they are laughing. At that time, the old man happened to be appreciating huā, and when he saw this group of evil boys, he rushed up with his cane to teach them a lesson. If the security guards hadn't seen it, I don't know what would have happened."
Sun Yuanqi is also very angry, no matter where he is, these-stirring sticks are indispensable. There are in Tokyo, Beijing, and even in schools dozens of miles away from the capital. ”
"Fortunately, there are not many, and it is estimated that there are only about 100 people. If there are more, there will never be a day of peace on campus," Luo Zhenyù paused, and then said, "But since this fall, this group of people has rarely come. Even if I come, it's much more secure than before. ”
"Why?" Sun Yuanqi said strangely.
"In late autumn, there are a few places on the mountain behind the school where the autumn leaves are very impressive. That group of green skins somehow knew, and they also came over to vassal elegance, and of course, they also did a lot of things that ruined the scenery. As a result, when your younger brothers saw it, they found a few classmates with backgrounds, plus school security guards, stopped them outside the school and taught them a hard lesson. Since then, they've grown a little bit better," Luo Zhen said with a smile, "Speaking of which, the school has to thank them."
Thinking of yesterday, Sun Duonan, Sun Duoyi, Sun Duoshi, and Sun Duoxuan saw themselves cowering, Sun Yuanqi couldn't help but laugh dumbly, it seems that this group of Ga boys is really a little cute, and then asked, "Then what about the two types of people?" ”
"If the first type of person is the most hateful, then the second type is undoubtedly the most lovable. These are mainly young students from other places, who come to audit and borrow because they missed the semester, or their families are poor, or they have not been admitted to our school; In addition, some students from schools such as Beijing Normal University Hall and Peiyang University Hall come to the school to ask questions and do experiments because of their hobbies. This kind of people respect teachers and education, study very hard, usually live outside the school, except for eating in the cafeteria and the students of the school to grab food, there is no other negative impact on the school. Luo Zhenyù also attaches great importance to these studious and motivated juniors, "As for the third group of people, they are mainly officials of all sizes in Beijing, who take advantage of their days off to visit school or friends, or enjoy the scenery, or borrow books. Although there are only a few dozen people, they have special status, and occasionally make some non-centrific demands, which puts us in a dilemma. ”
"For example?" Sun Yuanqi frowned and asked.
"For example?" Luo Zhenyù turned his head to look at Wang Guowei, "This question, Jing'an should be the most painful, right?" Can you tell me? ”
Wang Guowei nodded, "Okay, then I'll talk about it." ”
It can be seen that he does have a lot of depression to confide in: "Although it has only been a few years since the establishment of our school library, it can be called the largest in the country in terms of quantity, variety, editions and quality. In particular, the well-known Yin Shang oracle bones and Dunhuang testament collections are unique."
Sun Yuanqi understood the meaning of "well-known" in Wang Guowei's words, because there are still some unknown special collections in the library, such as the fragment of the "Yongle Grand Canon" and the base copy of the "Siku Quanshu", which are also scorpion in the whole country
"For the purposes of appreciation, study, and curiosity, officials of all sizes in Beijing often go to the library to borrow books on their days of rest. If it is simply borrowing, we naturally have nothing to say, after all, this is a treasure left by our ancestors, and it cannot become a secret of the Sī family. But when they saw that there were more than 100,000 oracle bones and 40,000 or 50,000 Dunhuang manuscripts, they would be moved and signal to us, either explicitly or secretly, and wanted to ask for a little as a souvenir. In their opinion, anyway, you have so many oracle bones and manuscripts, how much does it matter if you have less? Wang Guowei shook his head as he spoke.
Sun Yuanqi is also indignant, people's hearts are really unpredictable.
Wang Guowei continued, "Ordinary petty officials are just that, and the key is that there are some big officials, such as Duan Tao'an, who sent their housekeepers to come to the school with letters, and according to the rubbings in Mr. Zhongrong's "Examples of Deed Texts", according to the map, they asked to borrow relevant oracle bones. If you think about it, the oracle bones selected in the book are all carefully selected by jīng, and they are the most jīng Hua part of more than 100,000 oracle bones. He is the governor of Liangjiang, and if you really want to ask for it, it is estimated that even he will not be able to enter it
Another example is the Shanxi mention of Li Muzhai, soft grinding and hard bubbles, and he has to enter the Tibetan scripture hall where the Dunhuang testament is stored. When I entered the museum, he waved at me very freely, "You don't have to accompany me, I'll just watch it myself." Who doesn't know that the "Yongle Canon" was hidden in a bag and stolen locally? If he really wants to hide a few scriptures on his body, can we still search his body directly? ”
Sun Yuanqi was also a little hesitant, is it because the library's regulations on opening to the public are a bit sloppy?
Wang Guowei sighed, "In order to protect these national treasures, I have offended countless people. Like the housekeeper of the opposite Tao'an, he could only excuse himself to go out to buy books, and hid in Haiwang Village for nearly a month; As for Li Muzhai, Ye Zhishan, the deputy curator, and I were cheeky and didn't leave an inch, and we were stunned to accompany him all day in the Scripture Museum."
"The oracle bones and the Dunhuang testament, after all, there are two special storage places for the Jiatianxia and the Tibetan Scripture Museum, which are tightly guarded and strictly forbidden to be borrowed, but it is better. As for those engraved books and books, the number is too large, and it is difficult for the library staff to supervise them in place, and it is much more difficult to protect them" Wang Guowei was full of distress, "Although everyone is working hard, there are too many thieves, and this year alone, at least more than 130 books have been lost."
It seems that Kong Yiji is far more than the only one who steals books
"If stealing books can be prevented, then tearing books can't be prevented"
"Tear up the book?" Sun Yuanqi's face began to turn blue.
"Yes, some borrowers are lazy or greedy, and when they see a page in a book that is important to them, they tear it off. When the book comes back, we won't find it at all if we don't flip through the pages one by one. Because of this, we still don't know how many kinds of books have been destroyed."
Zhang Yuanji sighed on the side: "Now I know Wei Moshen's hatefulness."
That's right, Wei Moshen is the Wei Yuan who compiled the "Atlas of the Sea Kingdom" in the history books. This thinker, politician, and writer of the Qing Dynasty, the pioneer of modern China's "opening his eyes to the world", is also a well-known villain in the history of book collection.
First of all, he likes to steal books. According to Gong Zizhen's article "Batai Mountain Carved Stone Remnants", his old collection of "Langya Carved Stones" and "Yù Version of the Thirteen Lines" rubbings were stolen by Wei Yuan, so that Gong Zizhen specially wrote this passage, and finally said, "Don't let this kind of friend enter the fast." When Wei Yuan went south, a friend in the south of him directly said, "The thief is coming" (Mo Shen is about to come south, and Ji Shi has a saying, "The thief is not far away. ”)
Secondly, he often tore books. This is recorded by Ye Dehui, another famous bibliophile in the late Qing Dynasty, who is now the deputy director of the Jingshi University Library, called Zhishan, in the "Ten Testaments of the Book Collection", saying that Wei Yuan borrowed a friend's collection, cut off the part that should be copied, and returned it with the original book. So Ye Dehui thinks that he is "too hurtful and elegant", and "his heart is not right".
"What did the school library do about it?" Sun Yuanqi hurriedly asked.
