Chapter 131: The Preciousness of Learning
Zhang Zheng returned to the dormitory, and just as he was about to bathe and change clothes, he heard a strict report from outside.
"Zhang Xiannan, there are a few people from outside the palace, claiming that they were sent by the Wang family to send things to Zhang Xiannan, does Zhang Xiannan want to meet them?"
Zhang Zheng's hand took off his clothes, Wang's efficiency is okay.
When you enter the palace with your front foot, you will get the things you want with your back foot.
"Let them come in, and find a few people to move everything to where I live."
Zhang Zheng spoke, put on his clothes and opened the door of the dormitory.
"Yes."
Yan Song took the order, and then called a few palace people to move things with him.
After a while, the palace people called by Yan Song and a few people dressed as small servants moved two wooden boxes into Zhang Zheng's bedroom.
The boxes were sealed tightly, and they were coated with waterproof wood paint, and the gaps were also sealed with fish glue, which shows that Wang attaches great importance to these two boxes.
The leader of the little guy first thanked Yan Song, although the two boxes were not big, they were indeed very heavy.
When he came, he used a carriage to pull it, but when he arrived at Jinyang Palace, he could only be carried by people. The palace people who Yan Song called out more or less exerted their strength.
With the consistent family style of the Wang family, although these people are just subordinates, there is no shortage of etiquette.
"Zhang Xiannan, everything you want is here, the head of the family said, the person you want, he will personally send it to Chang'an after New Year's Day."
The little guy thanked Yan Song, and then said to Zhang Zheng without humility or arrogance.
Zhang Zheng also returned the salute and said to the little guy:
"Okay, there's Brother Lao. Please also help inform the head of the Wang family that the little nephew is waiting for the master in Chang'an. ”
"I must tell you, the villain is leaving."
Zhang Zheng waved his hand to signal his convenience, and Yan Song sent the palace people to send the people from the Wang family out of Jinyang Palace.
Zhang Zheng came to the two wooden boxes placed on the ground, pulled off the wooden bolts and opened the boxes.
The box contained a brand new book, from "Analects" to "Chu Ci" to "University" to "The Mean...... And so on.
The books are all very common books on the market, and they are packed in two large boxes.
After Zhang Zheng picked up a copy and opened it, a smile appeared on his face.
These books are exactly what you need. In other words, this is exactly what the Tang Royal Academy urgently needs.
It's the kind of books that there aren't even many in the palace.
The books are all new, the fragrance of rice paper mixed with the scent of ink, and the words on them are hand-copied. At a glance, you can see that it is the product of Wang's day and night work.
However, the content of the book is very different from the books circulating in the market.
In the same way, the text remains the same, but Wang's hand-copied books are nearly one-third thicker than the commercially available Analects.
Just because next to the text of the book, there are also dense small characters for annotations.
And these small words are the most important.
Why did Zhang Zheng risk his life to find a way to recruit the Wang family, not for these dense small words.
What the Wang family relies on to educate the children of the clan is to rely on these annotations and detailed explanations written by the great Confucians of the clan for generations.
The same book, the same words, each Confucian, each family has different explanations and commentaries.
But without exception, no matter which one is used to educate the disciples of the clan.
It must be this one, or this cultural school. Carefully selected from thousands of detailed explanations.
These things, even if they are put in the palace, are extremely treasures, and they belong to the kind that does not pass on secrets.
The reason why knowledge is precious is because every kind of knowledge has taken countless generations of hard work, energy and financial resources to finally get a result.
Let's ask which one of these achievements will be willing to share it easily and let others profit for no reason.
These two boxes of books, less than 400 books, weigh more than a thousand pounds.
Zhang Zheng flipped through the books in his hand and looked at the detailed explanations on them.
With these books, together with some rare books in the palace, the general framework of the Faculty of Letters of the Royal Academy can be set up.
Go back and ask Li Er to transfer some of the prisoners of Guozijian to help him break the sentences with the detailed explanations of these books.
Anyway, since the popularization of newspapers, Datang readers have basically learned the punctuation marks commonly used in newspapers.
If the Mo family can be successfully brought under the command again tomorrow, then the School of Science will also have the capital to start.
As for the rest of the miscellaneous majors, they still need to go back to Chang'an and discuss with Lao Li Gang before subdividing them.
But the most important literature and science are already eyebrows, and Zhang Zheng's mood is extremely happy.
Zhang Zheng never thought of engaging in scientific research and industry in Datang, after all, the restrictions of the times are here.
With Zhang Zheng's ability, the only thing he can do is to plant an industrial seed for Datang.
The Faculty of Science of the Datang Royal Academy is the soil for this seed to grow.
Zhang Zheng doesn't need Datang to enter the industrial society quickly, and Zhang Zheng doesn't have the ability to do the things that are fueled by pulling out seedlings.
But as long as this seed can make this land enter the industrial society three hundred years earlier than the original historical time and space.
Then Zhang Zheng's goal of opening the Tang Royal Academy has been achieved.
If the seeds are planted, sooner or later they will blossom and bear fruit. Maybe Zhang Zheng can't see that day, but that day will come sooner or later.
"Yan Song, call me the common saying."
Zhang Zheng gave Yan Song a command, and then carefully put the book in his hand back into the box, gently smoothing the wrinkles on the corners.
People who have not experienced this era will not be able to appreciate how difficult it is to acquire knowledge, let alone understand the preciousness of knowledge.
Before arriving in Datang, Zhang Zheng lived in an era of information explosion.
At that time, Zhang Zheng also thought that it was a very simple thing to obtain knowledge, after all, he only needed to open a search engine.
But when he saw the students of Datang with his own eyes, after working hard for a few days and nights to copy a book, Zhang Zheng also learned to cherish every book.
After a while, he got Yan Song's words and stepped into Zhang Zheng's bedroom.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw these two very conspicuous wooden boxes on the ground.
After seeing that the boxes were full of brand-new books, I lost my mind for a while.
Wang sent so many books, as the saying goes, people who know the goods naturally know the preciousness of these books.
"The old slave has seen Zhang Xiannan, I don't know what Zhang Xiannan told the old slave to come over?"
After losing his mind, Chang Yan set his eyes on Zhang Zheng.
"Have you seen these two boxes of books, find a few reliable people to send these books back to Chang'an as quickly as possible.
After handing it over to His Majesty, it was sent to the hands of the crown prince and young master Li Gang.
In addition, draft a memo in your name, and you know what you want to write.
Just write it truthfully, and you don't have to hide anything for me. Give it to me to sign when you're done. ”
Zhang Zheng closed the box and instructed Chang Yan.
