Chapter 360: The promotion of vernacular literature is blocked

Jiang Chen naturally won't admit it, otherwise where would Luzon's development fund come from? How does he control the price of glass? How many princesses want to know that this thing is not valuable, how can they still read him?

So he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Yuqing Villa can barely make glazed tiles at most now, and good treasures like this kind of transparent without a trace of impurities are all purchased from maritime merchants with a lot of money to obtain high-grade colored glass, and then obtained through my special processing."

"I see!"

"You can make glazed tiles in just a few days, which is already very valuable!"

Zhao Huan and Zhao Kai were quite disappointed in their hearts, but they both nodded appreciatively at Jiang Chen.

Seeing that several princesses dragged Zhao Fujin to the side and forced him to ask about the small box, Zhao Huan asked about the topic of concern and said:

"Senior brother, now that the problem of corruption is rampant, it has reached the point of crisis, in addition to Dongying's extreme measures, do you have any other slightly more moderate solutions?"

Of course not!

If you don't completely get rid of the shackles and shackles of Confucianism, everything is in vain!

Jiang Chen thought so in his heart, but he said, "The gentle method is slower, and it is more difficult to implement.

Yuqing Villa's Jimin Newspaper in vernacular and simplified Chinese characters, the prince and the king of Yun have read it, right?"

Jiang Chen interrogated, staring closely at the changes in Zhao Huan and Zhao Kai's expressions, if these two were willing to help implement vernacular and simplified Chinese characters together, it would save him a lot of effort in the future.

"Vernacular and simplified Chinese?

Hum! The Jimin Daily is full of typos, not to mention, but also full of market language, which is simply insulting! And the face is called vernacular and simplified Chinese?"

Cai Yan jumped out with a sneer on his face and glanced at Jiang Chen with disdain.

"Not bad!

It's just a joke for you to make jokes alone, do you still want the prince and the king of Yun to be despised by the world together? To throw away even the precious words and words left by our ancestors is simply not a son of man!"

Wang Yu saw that Zhao Jinluo couldn't put down Jiang Chen's gift, but he didn't care about his gift, and his jealousy had already exploded, so he directly echoed Cai Ying.

When Jiang Chen heard this, he frowned with a crooked face, "Do you know what Cangjie's purpose is in creating characters? What is the meaning of the existence of words?"

"Naturally, it's for the convenience of transmitting records? Is there anything wrong?" Cai Yan asked rhetorically.

"In that case, why can't we use more straightforward vernacular and simplified characters?"

Jiang Chen asked loudly: "If you say something that the people don't understand all day long, in addition to showing that you are knowledgeable, what is the benefit of the country and the people?

If the words of the ancients were translated in a concise and concise vernacular, would there still be so many pointless academic disputes?

The students still need to go to the Confucian family every day to ask questions, and after reading the Analects for thousands of years, no one can fully understand it except for his old Confucian family?

Have you ever thought that Confucianism deliberately made the text more and more esoteric, and every time it was plausible, so that the students could understand it for themselves, in fact, it had no ulterior intentions?"

This?

Zhao Huan and Zhao Kai looked thoughtful.

Even Cai Ying, Wang Yu and others felt that Jiang Chen's words made some sense.

Zhu Yinian nodded approvingly and said, "Liangchen's words are reasonable! However, in order to maintain their status as leaders of the literary world and the final interpretation of scholarship, the Confucian family and Confucianism will definitely not agree!

This is even more unacceptable to them than the abolition of Confucianism, and it is tantamount to digging up their ancestral graves!"

"That's a mistake!"

Cai Qian shook his head and said, "Words are not for the people to read, we just need to tell them what to do.

In addition, if a 1,000-word article is written in the vernacular, it must be more than 3,000 words if you want to express its meaning. For us, isn't it just a matter of asking for trouble?"

"Fourth brother said it well!

According to what Jiang Chen said, could it be that we have to learn simplified Chinese and vernacular again? It's a joke!"

Cai Yan instantly came to his senses, applauded loudly, and sneered at Jiang Chen.

"Well, that's true."

After Zhao Huan and Zhao Kai listened to Cai Qian's words, they immediately decided that it was not advisable to implement the vernacular.

Seeing their reaction like this, Jiang Chen instantly lost interest in arguing.

If you continue to talk about education for all and opening up people's wisdom, most of them will be regarded as crazy people, which is tantamount to playing the harp to a cow.

So while secretly making up his mind to quietly implement it among the people when he passed through Jiangnan, he nodded and said, "Lord Cai's words are indeed quite reasonable, and the vernacular and simplified Chinese characters are not suitable for large-scale implementation at present!"

Kindness?

Presently?

Cai Qian heard the implied meaning in Jiang Chen's words.

Just as they were about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, Zhao Yingluo and several princesses suddenly let out a burst of excited exclamations: "Oh my God! It's amazing, is this a mirror? How can you shine such a light on people?"
