Chapter 6 Change
More important than military training is the development of the entire Shuixi.
Yesterday, Zhao Cheng made a simple plan, and after communicating with Mrs. Xiang, he proposed the recent deployment arrangement.
Although he became the national teacher of Shuixi and led the reform of Shuixi, all problems had to be based on reality, and it was impossible to detach from reality and rely on imagination out of thin air.
Fantasy may be able to make some detailed planning for the future.
But after all, fantasy still doesn't have much meaning.
Practice is the most important thing.
For this reason, Zhao Cheng made a plan to communicate and dialogue with the top management of Shuixi several times.
In this way, it is more convenient for him to understand the water stream and make it easier for him to formulate the development plan of the water stream.
"This is our new national teacher in Shuixi, everyone can call him Hua Guoshi."
As soon as I walked into the hall, more than ten men and women gathered around, and Mrs. Xiang also introduced them at the first time.
"Hua Guoshi is good!"
"Hua Guoshi~"
A group of people, regardless of age or position, all saluted and greeted Zhao Cheng.
Yesterday, they learned that a national teacher had come to Shuixi, who had been entrusted with an important task by Ai Cui.
They had long wanted to meet this newcomer.
It's a pity that Madame Xiang protected it very well, and no one could see Zhao Cheng without her permission.
This made them doubly curious.
Now, it's finally time to meet the real person.
Not to mention, the young man is very sturdy and has an elegant temperament, which is quite like the same thing.
However, they were shocked to find that this Hua Guoshi seemed to be not very old.
What kind of ability does this guy have to be entrusted with the important task of being a national teacher?!
There were a few young people who were quite unconvinced when they saw Zhao Cheng's appearance.
It's not going to be a fame seller, is it?
When did it take Shuixi's turn to give orders from this kid surnamed Hua?
Of course, although he is not convinced, he also abides by the rules, at least on the surface.
In fact, they understand the fact that although this Hua Guoshi is a national teacher, without their support, he is destined to be unable to move an inch in Shuixi.
Whatever you want to do, you have to discuss with them.
Otherwise, they would be disobedient, and this young national teacher would not be able to do anything.
Zhao Cheng also knew this clearly.
Ai Cui believed him, and Lady Xiang was willing to let him try.
But if you can't show real talent and real learning, it is impossible to convince the public, let alone make a difference.
Zhao Cheng was not cowardly, and nodded in response.
He is knowledgeable, his eyes are extraordinary, and his ability to recognize people is also good.
Everyone who greeted him had a general impression, and under the introduction of Mrs. Xiang, they had a little understanding of their positions, abilities, and influence in Shuixi.
This group of people is almost the top leadership of Shuixi.
Mrs. Xiang is the core figure in this team.
The previous central character was Emerald.
But he was seriously ill and had been bedridden for many years, and it was also at his suggestion and authorization that Mrs. Xiang rightfully inherited his position.
Zhao Cheng made some brief introductions, and didn't do anything on the first day, just met with everyone, communicated, familiar, familiar, and familiar.
Everything is difficult at the beginning, and it is not easy to take the first step in any business.
But fortunately, Zhao Cheng's knowledge far exceeded this era, and after the initial acquaintance on the first day, he became more familiar with it later.
The follow-up exchanges are relatively normal, and Zhao Cheng did not directly interfere in the government affairs of Shuixi, he followed Mrs. Xiang every day, familiarized himself with various affairs, understood various facts, and had a preliminary understanding of the operation of Shuixi's government affairs.
After a few days of communication, Zhao Cheng was disappointed.
Shuixi's backwardness was far more serious than he thought.
A very simple microcosm, in the upper echelons, there are less than half of the people who are literate.
That's harder.
It can be seen that the literacy rate of the entire Shuixi can be one percent, which is good.
Zhao Cheng could only constantly adjust his plan, while taking the time to train the hundred people and educate them in various ways, he began to make changes to the upper level of the water stream.
One of the most important is education.
To be literate, at least to know simplified characters
This is a very important thing.
After discussing with Mrs. Xiang, Zhao Cheng set a rule of attending night school every day, a voluntary rule.
Zhao Cheng started from the very basics, teaching everyone to read and write and recognize simplified Chinese characters every night.
Considering the small number of resources in the water stream, kerosene could not have been so wasted.
Zhao Cheng could only take out the electric light in advance.
This thing, hundreds of years beyond this era, became the focus as soon as it appeared, and gave Mrs. Xiang and others the title of magic lamp.
"Hua Guoshi, what is this? Why is it so bright? ”
"This is an electric lamp, a kind of illumination, which can be used on a large scale if the production conditions allow in the future, and the people of Shuixi can use it."
"Electric light? Can it be used? Are you sure? ”
"Really, you can, according to my plan, in the next three years, you can initially promote electric light."
"By the way, Hua Guoshi, why is it called an electric light?" Mrs. Xiang is often able to grasp the key points and doubts.
"Because electricity is used, kerosene lamps use kerosene, and igniting kerosene burns to emit light, and electric lamps use electricity ......."
"Electricity? Electricity of thunder and lightning? Mrs. Xiang was shocked, it seems that this Hua Guoshi is even more terrifying than she thought!
"Yes, it's the electricity of thunder!" Zhao Cheng didn't explain too much, "I will talk about this later, the basic principle will be understood by everyone, and now the Shuixi Night School is officially opened."
Every day, after dinner, everyone can come to this place, and I will give lectures here. ”
Zhao Cheng didn't care too much about the shock of Mrs. Xiang and the others, this was just the beginning.
If all goes well in the future, he will fully support the development of Shuixi, and earth-shaking changes can take place in a short period of time.
At that time, they were shocked.
The night school was successfully established in a courtyard not far from the barracks, which also became Zhao Cheng's temporary residence.
He vacated the lobby and converted it into a large classroom by taking advantage of the open space in the lobby.
During the day, he went to the barracks to train the soldiers, taught them this knowledge, taught various truths, and constantly transmitted the duty of soldiers to obey orders.
During the period, I will also take some time to solve my doubts for Mrs. Xiang and solve various problems and difficulties for her.
In the evening, Zhao Cheng uses night school, which runs for three hours a day, mainly to teach everyone literacy, supplemented by the dissemination of basic science knowledge.
In order to use time efficiently, it is not too much for Zhao Cheng to rotate continuously.
But in order to impart more knowledge and ideas in a short period of time, so that Mrs. Xiang and others have more insight and can better understand what he said, they can only do this.
After all, electric lights are only one of Zhao Cheng's many secrets.
It's important, but it's not that important.
In fact, electric lights are also available in Wushanzhai, and Zhao Cheng installed two in the academy, and also installed a solar panel, which is enough for daily use.
Even, Li Qiaozhen was provided with electricity to use technology products, which allowed her to learn a lot of things and understand a lot of truths.
……
Zhao Cheng did it step by step, he didn't make a big move, everything was developing in the direction he expected, and it went well.
Of course, there is a reason why it went smoothly - there was no cake for the magnates of the Moving Water Creek.
Zhao Cheng understands his status and his current influence, how can he move other people's cakes as soon as he comes?
In addition to this reason, Zhao Cheng came up with a lot of fresh gadgets, a lot of novel ideas, and imparted some knowledge for free, which made Zhao Cheng gain the favor of many high-level officials, and also allowed him to smoothly integrate into the high-level of Shuixi.
At the very least, the executives of Shuixi are either out of curiosity, or out of profit, or some other idea......
I never felt sorry for Zhao Cheng.
On the contrary, they are very supportive of his work and arrangements.
Although, Zhao Cheng has no arrangements, so far there are only two.
1. Train your own soldiers.
2. Establish a school where learning takes place both day and night.
Madame Xiang gave him a hundred excellent soldiers, and their physical fitness was okay.
Although for Zhao Cheng, these people are not excellent.
But it doesn't matter, as long as you are obedient and do what he arranges, it is enough.
With his training and education, it is not surprising that these people will be great talents in the future.
For these 100 people, Zhao Cheng's focus on cultivation can be regarded as his dedication.
Reading, literacy, literacy, literacy, distinguishing right from wrong, and teaching them new ideas and concepts......
But whatever he could, Zhao Cheng didn't let go of any of them.
Of course, the physical training did not fall behind.
Although the props are insufficient, some exercise equipment is still made according to the cognition, and the effect is not bad.
In a flash, most of the month passed.
Half a month is long, but it's not that long.
It's just that this half a month has been much longer than ever for Mrs. Xiang.
After the edification of "Xinhua Dictionary" and so on, she has basically mastered simplified Chinese characters, and has also been exposed to many great new things.
After all, how can you grow without shattering your worldview?
At the same time, she has raised her understanding and attention to Hua Guoshi again and again.
Even, she also had the idea of leaving Hua Guoshi at all costs.
Hua Guoshi, who really has the ability to go through heaven and latitude, will definitely be able to lead Shuixi on a completely different path, and he can really eat well, dress warmly, and live in a big house.
It was also for this reason that Mrs. Xiang began to do her best to support Zhao Cheng's work, mobilizing people from Shuixi to go to night schools every day to listen to classes and lectures.
She knows very well that listening to Zhao Cheng's classes and lectures, hearing is learning, and hearing is earning.
Especially some of the theories that Zhao Cheng occasionally uttered, it is easy to create countless wealth.
Change takes time to go.
Quantitative change will cause qualitative change.
But in the past half a month, many people have a feeling of enlightenment, gained a lot of things, and learned a lot of extraordinary things and knowledge.
Unconsciously, Zhao Cheng's image and influence became more and more important.
During this time, Zhao Cheng trained again, gave lectures, and found time to sort out his own plans and outlines, and he was very busy every day.
But there are also many gains.
In addition to establishing prestige among these hundred soldiers, they have also grown considerably.
In addition, Zhao Cheng also has a deeper understanding and trust in Shuixi, and has also put forward many suggestions for the development of Shuixi, and some of them have achieved some results.
Mrs. Xiang imagined a lot of futures, and Zhao Cheng described many scenes to her, which made her come up with a lot of ideas, such as gathering professional farmers, forming an agronomy club, researching better crops, and cultivating better crops; Or convene doctors in the jurisdiction to integrate the medical resources of Shuixi and study how to see patients better and how to make patients recover better and faster.
Or, at Zhao Cheng's suggestion, Mrs. Xiang attached great importance to craftsmen, blacksmiths, established an alliance of craftsmen, and studied weapons, farm tools, household tools, and so on.
In addition, Zhao Cheng also gave some basic knowledge of gunpowder, and asked Mrs. Xiang to find the most core and most descendant person to start gunpowder research.
……
Time is the best test.
During this period of time, the development of Shuixi has been seen by everyone.
Many things have achieved good results, and there are more and more people around Mrs. Xiang who can understand simplified Chinese characters, and many methods and theories have gradually been practiced, but Shuixi is not small, there are many people, and there are some people in the leadership who have different ideas.
Among them, there are a lot of ideas about Hua Guoshi.
Some people have a big desire and want to knock out all the things that Hua Guoshi has mastered.
At the very least, things like electric lights are divine objects for everyone, and if they can be completely mastered by Shuixi, then Shuixi's future will be infinitely brighter.
Not only the literal light, but also the huge non-material improvement of living standards.
After all, what a great achievement it would be and what a great fortune it would be to be able to control the electric light......
Some of the people who think they are wise can also see it.
But fortunately, Mrs. Xiang can still suppress it!
It will not let Hua Guoshi even have personal freedom, let alone let his life be threatened.
Of course, these are just the opinions of these people in Shuixi.
They didn't know how terrifying Zhao Cheng was at all!
Including Mrs. Xiang too.
In a way, she also saved those who had bad thoughts.
You know, if it really annoys Zhao Cheng and threatens his personal safety, it will release the gods and demons.
Still want to control and threaten the personal freedom of the gods and demons Zhao Cheng?
What Jinyi Wei can't do, these people in Shuixi can do?!!
It's hilarious!
Of course, Zhao Cheng saw all this, and it didn't matter, these guys were a little silly and cute, which added a little joke to his life.
As for some people in Shuixi, they scolded the teacher while learning knowledge, and even thought about how to squeeze Zhao Cheng dry......
He had seen this kind of thing a long time ago.
Doesn't matter!
Anywhere, at any time, there will be some guys who have not achieved enough and have more than enough to lose.
Zhao Cheng knew it very well and could see it.
I don't care about these things!
As long as it doesn't affect his affairs, and don't affect the entire development of Shuixi, he doesn't bother to care about these dirty things.
If this is still the case in the future, or if the situation becomes serious, then it is no wonder that Zhao Cheng is untold.
Development and reform must touch on changes in interests.
But what Zhao Cheng did was to make the cake infinitely bigger for them.
I don't understand this, and I don't want to sit and lie down to win, so they don't deserve to be happy.
If you encounter disobedient people in the future, hinder development, and affect change......
Zhao Cheng would never choose to ignore it like now, or let Lady Xiang reconcile it.
He'll show his fangs straight away!
Of course, Zhao Cheng's influence in Shuixi is not enough, the importance is not enough, and the fangs are not sharp enough.
He still needs to delay for a while, rely on his own ability, and after training and educating those 100 soldiers into modern soldiers who are sensible and understand right and wrong, he will rely on them to gradually master the army of Shuixi.
Regarding this, Zhao Cheng has absolute confidence.
Although Madame Xiang was also on guard against him, she also gave some support in this regard.
She is the person who knows Hua Guoshi the most in the entire Shuixi, if she kills hundreds or thousands of people, she can leave Hua Guoshi in Shuixi and let hundreds of thousands of people in Shuixi live a better life......
This deal is not a loss!
In the past half a month of contact and understanding, Mrs. Xiang has long been impressed by the insight and wisdom of Hua Guoshi.
After all, it is hundreds of years of knowledge beyond this era, enough to surprise anyone in the contemporary era.
Even if it's Ying Tianfu, it's the same.
……
"There is news that Fu Youde has just arrived in Banzhou and will stay in Banzhou for a while."
One night, Zhao Cheng's lecture ended, and Mrs. Xiang brought him this news.
This month, Fu Youde went back and forth to several major forces in Qianzhou, and now he is in Banzhou Tusi Yang's Na.
"It's finally here!"
