Chapter 30: The Talent of Xiangguo (Subscription Requested!)
Knock knock!
Knock knock!
No one opened the door.
Fan Liwen waited, a little embarrassed.
However, thinking that Yue Nu lives alone, although it is broad daylight, it is normal for not to be an acquaintance.
The two of them are humble gentlemen, and they are here to send each other off, but they don't have to meet, Wen Chong smiled sassyly, took a few steps back, sat down slowly, Hengqin was on his lap, and Fan Li's sleeve slipped out of a hole flute.
The sound of the piano is melodious, and the sound of the flute is euphemistic and tortuous, like the wind entering the pine, like a spring falling into the stream, elegant and appreciative.
Now the Boyazi period has not yet been born, and naturally there is no famous mountain and flowing water, but it is difficult to find a bosom friend, which is a problem that has originated since ancient times.
When the piano and flute are played, perfect and harmonious, they are integrated, and the Yue girls in the house have a surprised look in their eyes.
"Hao Hao Baishui, the man's spirit, the ambition is unpaid, it is rare to be free!"
Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows: "Two of you, please come in!"
The words fell, the courtyard door opened, and a light breeze surrounded the body, bringing Fan Liwen in.
"Huh, her eyes!"
Wen Chong first looked at Yue Nu, met her crystal clear eyes, was slightly stunned, Fan Li was also surprised in his heart, and then looked at Gu Cheng and Nightshade.
There is no doubt that the Yue Nu's eyes can be restored thanks to these two people.
What country are they the children of the nobility?
Gu Cheng's temperament has long returned to the basics, and he can't see anything, but the extravagance of nightshade can be seen at a glance.
The two of them moved their eyes slightly, and arched their hands and said: "Fan Li, Wen Chong, I've seen Gongzi!"
Gu Cheng smiled slightly.
This is an unexpected surprise, things gather in kind, people in groups, and those who can appreciate the music of Yue Nuxun are all top people.
The combination of Fan Li and Wen is somewhat similar to Zhang Liang and Xiao He, the former is good at strategy, and the latter is good at internal affairs.
They were the key to the later rise of the Yue Kingdom.
For Jiang Guo, there is never too little talent.
The civil and military affairs of the four major worlds are still in the stage of learning and running-in, and the aborigines of Xianwu naturally have their advantages.
Since I encountered it, it is better to pack it and take it away, anyway, they are all middle-aged people, and they have been reused, just because of their bad background, they have been wasted for decades, what a pity?
Everyone sat down, the topic opened, and gradually talked about the general trend of the world.
"Seventy years ago, the doctor of Chu State, Shen Gong Wuchen, resented the general's rebellion, first fled to the Jin State, and then the Jin envoy Wu taught Wu the art of using soldiers and the method of vehicle warfare, so that Wu and Chu were evil!"
Wen Chong sneered: "His heart is sinister!"
Gu Chengdao: "According to Your Excellency's opinion, can the State of Wu defeat Chu?"
"Can't!"
Wen Chong said categorically: "The population of Wu is limited, the foundation is insufficient, the war has been fought for many years, the national strength has been depleted, and now the king of Wu has been assassinated, Gongziguang has usurped the throne, and Wu Zixu is the prime minister, and the army will be reborn, and the day of defeat is not far away!"
Today, an important criterion for judging whether a country is strong or not is the size of its population.
Only when the population is large can we ensure the cultivation of crops, the payment of military contributions, the availability of people in all aspects of agriculture, industry and commerce, and the sufficient supply of soldiers in the face of war.
On the other hand, when the country is stable and the people are rich, only when babies are born more and grow up faster.
With the existing population of Wu State, even if the family is rich, it is difficult to compare with Chu State, but it has been fighting for years and years, swallowing elephants with snakes, and choking to death if they barely eat it.
Gu Cheng asked again: "Then how to improve?"
The literary species talked eloquently: "The pipe has a saying, a year of tree valley, ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, if you want to be full of talents, you must open up the school and private learning, teach the people the four arts and six arts, the study of the king, the art is universal, the party produces talented people, so do not move the sword, recuperate, strengthen the national strength, decades of success, is the time to rejuvenate the army." ”
The four arts and six arts, the study of the king's officials, is the origin of the study of the princes.
The learning of all sons comes from official learning, Confucianism comes from the official of Situ, Taoism comes from the official of history, the Yin and Yang family comes from the official of Xihe, the Legalist comes from the official of reason, the famous family comes from the official of etiquette, the Mojia comes from the official of the Qing Temple, the vertical and horizontal family comes from the official of pedestrians, the miscellaneous family comes from the official of the council, the peasant family comes from the official of the agricultural grass, and the family comes from the barnyard official.
The sons have a long history of words, each with its own origin, and those famous people also inherited the doctrine of their predecessors and carried it forward.
It was not in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period that within a few hundred years, from scratch, countless advanced scholarships were suddenly created.
It's all about accumulation.
As for the government school and private learning, the former is run by the government, since the creation of the word Cangjie in this world, the Xuanyuan Holy Emperor attaches great importance to the study of words, passed down from generation to generation, and most of the people can be literate.
Of course, literacy does not mean that the level of education is generally high, so private learning is still very important.
The most famous private school gentleman, of course, is Confucius, but he is not the first person to open a private school, and now private schools in various countries have a very large scale, so the literature also includes it.
"No!"
After talking about the shortcomings of Wu Guo, Fan Li continued: "Wu Zixu built Gusu and opened a ditch, and within ten years, he can accumulate great momentum and rejuvenate the water war!"
This gets to the point.
What is Wu's biggest advantage?
It's not a chariot art that is less than a hundred years old, but a river water war.
Just like the Eastern Wu of the same name during the Three Kingdoms period in the later generations, the land war was ordinary, the water war was invincible, and when Cao Wei was at its peak, they were all broken in Chibi and sunk in the sand.
Once the canal is repaired, the naval army of Wu will not only be active in the south of the Yangtze River, but will be able to enter the quasi-river basin through the canal, and the rumbling war drums on the water will soon resound throughout the earth.
Wen Chong shook his head: "Wu Zixu is eager for revenge, he has given up Hangou and built Gusu, his fire of revenge will drag Wu Guo into a place of no return!"
Fan Li said with a smile: "Wu Zixu is also self-aware, he recommended Sun Wu seven times and went out of the mountain to train his troops, just to find a reins to restrain himself and prevent the chariot from getting out of control......"
The literature refutes again, the two express their own opinions, from the general trend to the subsections, the analysis is the first thing, the whip penetrates, and many details corroborate it, which is by no means empty words.
Gu Cheng bowed.
Both of them can be prime ministers.
In this era, the Xiangguo is in charge of the six canons of the state, and the specific content is very complicated.
From national policies, to secular life, to farmland and water conservancy, to the popularization of education, all of them are among its governance.
Fan Liwen had already been a doctor in Chu State, with low-level experience, outstanding talent, and foresight, which can be described as Wang Zuo's talent.
But the two belong to the bottom of the people, even if they are full of talent, they can't be displayed, and it is difficult to find a way to heaven.
The kings and ministers of various countries will not waste time at all, listening to two little people to point out the country, unless they make a name for themselves.
But if you can't get reused from the top, how can you stand out in this world of heroes and heroes?
It's an endless loop.
So under normal circumstances, only when a country is exhausted, the two can be reused, they have long held their breath in their hearts, and this debate about the rise and fall of Wu is also a show of what they have learned.
Seeing them open the screen like peacocks, competing with each other, Gu Cheng listened with a smile: "I am not a person from Wu Yue, two great talents, can I enter the capital of our country and show what I have learned?"
Fan Li's face was as usual, he took a sip of tea, Wen Chong's heart jumped, and he said expectantly: "I don't know where the son comes from?"
Gu Cheng smiled: "Jiang Guo." ”
