On June 1, the fifth year of Huaxia, the first middle school graduation examination of Huaxia State began.

The entire Chinese family will usher in the first batch of new-style graduates.

If you want to talk about graduates, there are probably no graduates like the current Huaxia middle school students.

There are about 4,000 people, but most of them have only four years of secondary education in terms of knowledge, and they were still untouchables on the land of the Ming Kingdom six or seven years ago.

Through literacy studies and remedial classes, merit students are selected for secondary school for four years of formal education.

They are also the first batch of Chinese teenagers who have opened their eyes to the world under the new education.

Although the teachers are not very competent, most of the time, they study and discuss with the teachers.

However, as the first batch of young people in the history of China to understand modern scientific theories and philosophical theories, they were all excited by the freshness brought by these theories.

If you don't experience this kind of soul-shaking high-spiritedness, you can't understand Yan Zheng's good intentions.

This is also a unique era in the history of China!

At this time, regardless of the social class or family background, as long as you have the intelligence and perseverance necessary to obtain certain qualifications, you can become a scholar, a cadre, a teacher, or an engineer.

This kind of equality, deliberately created by Yan Zheng, will make everyone feel that this period has a bright filter.

In this kind of light, young people can not care about the passage of time, they have enough opportunities for trial and error, instead of being ruthlessly whipped by society as soon as they leave school, and their faces are pressed out of the wheel of history.

This is one of the greatest achievements of Huaxia in recent years, and it is also the most gratifying thing for Yan Zheng.

He created an era in the history of the Chinese kingdom that was the freest and brightest, where young people could have more choices and have light in their eyes.

Whether they go to the factory, take the public examination, go to college, join the army, or even farm, they all have a bright future.

Such an era is unique, and it is even more important in history than the so-called prosperous era.

Hundreds of years later, people may forget all the things of the Yan Zheng era, but they must be surprised that this is actually an era that does not pay attention to the family!

……

In the examination room of Dagang Township, Li Jian was writing hard to answer the last question of the subject of Chinese language.

This is an essay question that asks students to write an essay of no less than 800 words on the topic of "just a young student".

Li Jian recalled the years of the disaster victims, and thought of the bits and pieces after coming to Dongqin, and his thoughts finally stopped at the four years of middle school.

From the ignorance when he first entered the school, he gradually got used to middle school life.

He will be delighted that green shoots are popping up on the campus lawn. I will cheer and jump at the beginning of the rising sun, I will also feel warm to the care and kindness of the teacher, and I will be happy to master obscure knowledge.

What is Cha Classmate Teenager? Li Jian felt that who he was with, where he was, and what he was doing, even if he had occasional troubles, he could laugh with his classmates in the next moment, this was just a young man!

As he wrote, he couldn't help but look up at Yang Ziwen who was sitting in the other row, and the corners of his mouth were sincerely hooked with a smile.

If an essay is too short, how can you write about the youthful years of your youth?

At the end of his writing, he couldn't help but add: I am very satisfied with settling down in Dongqin, my youth years are very beautiful, and the most beautiful thing is that I happen to be accompanied by so many classmates, I will remember this period for the rest of my life!

……

Two days later, Li Jian, Chen Junyou, Yang Ziwen, and Wang Sen stood outside the school gate, looking at the middle school that had accompanied them for four years.

Like everyone else, they had a smile on their faces, but their eyes were full of reluctance.

The students who passed by said hello one after another, saying goodbye and taking care at the same time.

Looking back on the four years of classmates, the four of them are very warm, and now they are going their separate ways.

Although they have all made their choices, they are still very sad to say goodbye to this middle school period.

"It's going so fast!"

"yes!"

All four of them smiled, carrying their luggage and setting out on the way home.

Wang Sen was a little more emotional, and his eyes were red as he walked: "I won't be able to see each other often in the future!" With so many classmates and friends, I don't know when I will see you again! ”

"There's always a chance to be reunited!" Li Jian's voice is also a little heavier, he wants to be in the navy, and after he serves, he will run all over the world, and I don't know when we will meet.

Yang Ziwen smiled and glanced up at the clear sky: "If you have time in the future, remember to write a letter!" The letter is a little slower, but it can also tell each other about the situation. ”

Chen Junyou lowered his head and didn't speak, and his heart was also mixed.

The four of them said a few words occasionally as they walked, and when they came to a fork in the road, Chen Junyou stopped.

The other three also stopped, pretending to say goodbye easily, before watching Chen Junyou walk to the hometown road home.

"Junyou will be a cadre in the future! You say, will this kid become a big official in the future? ”

"There must be a chance, the country's territory is getting bigger and bigger, and it will not be easy to become a mayor in the future!"

"Mayor, that's equivalent to the prefect of the Ming Kingdom! This official is big enough, but this kid is actually very, the bigger the official, the easier it is to have accidents! ”

"What I'm saying is, don't see the news that he was treated as a typical one in Huaxia Daily!"

Haha - the three of them lost a few words, and then they were cheerful again.

It wasn't until Li Jian also came to the fork in the road that his smile froze and he took care of each other.

Looking at Li Jian's back, Wang Sen couldn't help but reddened his eyes again.

Yang Ziwen patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, there is still me!" As long as we go to college, we are still classmates! ”

…………

And on this special day, "How Steel is Made" was also officially typeset in Huaxia Printing Bureau.

The first batch of 100 printed copies was sent to Yan Zheng, and the covers of these books were all in more elaborate hard leather covers, with the words "How Steel is Made" printed on them.

On the title page is the message: The world is yours and ours, but in the end it is yours. You young people are full of vigor and prosperity, like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and hope is pinned on you.

Yan Zheng opened a book, although the font is slightly thicker than that of later generations, but it is clearer and neater than traditional printing, and the arrangement is more compact.

It seems that the lead movable type printing technology has matured in the Eastern Qin.

Cai Xiwei, who was in charge of the printing bureau, stood on the side with his sleeves on, and there were ink stains on his body.

"Yes, the comrades of the Printing Bureau have worked hard!"

Cai Xiwei breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored, and the king is satisfied, which is the blessing of our waiting!" ”

Yan Zheng couldn't help but smile: "That's not how the sycophants are filmed, I gave you an urgent task and forced you to work overtime for more than a month, and it wasn't for selfishness!" Although I wrote this book, I did not flaunt it in the name of the king. You haven't read this book properly, have you? ”

"Time is pressing, and I haven't seen the king's masterpiece yet!" Cai Xiwei sneered.

Yan Zheng smiled and picked up the pen, signed the name on the book and said: "This book will be given to you, this is also the first vernacular written in the history of the Chinese Kingdom, I believe that in the history of literature, it will have its status!" Take this book and make it a family heirloom! ”

Cai Xiwei hurriedly leaned over and took it, his hands trembled slightly, since he called Dong Qin, he was shocked by Dong Qin's terrifying financial resources and craftsmanship.

At present, more than 300,000 pieces of copper movable type have been cast, and in another year, the copper movable type will exceed 700,000 pieces, and the printing cost will fall again.

Not to mention the Dongqin people, they have begun to experiment with stone printing, saying that they want to make color printing.

These all opened Cai Xiwei's eyes, and he felt that his previous skills were simply not enough.

"Villain, thank you...... Thank you, Mr. Longen! ”

"You deserve it, all the employees of the printing bureau, are rewarded with a month's salary!" Yan Zheng smiled kindly.

"Villain, thank you for everyone!"

Yan Zheng asked again: "How much is the price of this book?" ”

"The first batch of about 6,000 copies were printed, and the prices in various places were about 50 to 55 yuan."

Yan Zheng thought about it, decided not to make this little money, and said: "The government grants funds, the first graduates, all the middle school students who are enrolled, each will be issued a copy!" ”

He wants all young people to have a book in their lives that has trembled them!
