"It's on, it's on, it's a black carp again, haha...... Ah, well, Pingzhang, my old man grew up by the sea, and he is better at fishing than you, so he is not very good. Alas, if you say this fishing, you still have to go to the sea, this small lake can have very big fish, and whale fishing is the ability. ”

"Whale meat is not tasty, too tough, and fishy."

"Yes, yes, yes, but I mean this back lake...... Hmm, it's called Xuanwu Lake, the black carp in this lake is a gem, but it's a pity that it has become your family, I haven't tasted it, let's try it today, I have it...... It's almost six, and I can't finish it. ”

"Old Fang, I suddenly feel that it is very suitable to send your son on an expedition to Japan......

"Pingzhang has the grace of reinvention to Ming Gong, if you let him go there, he will definitely go."

“……”

Inside the boat on Xuanwu Lake.

This is October 20, after the fish banquet, Zhu Yuan still maintains most of the time of cultivation, after greeting in advance, he has also been in Jinling to visit Fang Guozhen, who is leisurely.

It was boring to talk dryly, so Zhu Yuan proposed to come over to fish.

Outcome...... Amateur meets professional.

It's not fun to talk to yourself.

I didn't have much interest.

Angry.

Freehand took someone to take a small boat to bring lunch, entered the cabin, and happened to see that his adult was choked on the "threat" of not succeeding, and he couldn't help but laugh and report, and when he got a response, he arranged to set the meal on the side.

After letting the fishing rod be collected, the two sat cross-legged on the cushion next to the dining table, picked up the cutlery humbly, moved a few times, and praised it, Fang Guozhen returned to just now: "Pingzhang has thoughts about Japan?" ”

Zhu Yuan didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "Old Fang, what do you think?" ”

"That place, there are a lot of good things, I used to think it was too far away, and I saw your place...... Forehead ......"

Zhu Yuan didn't care: "I've seen it, I've seen it, I didn't plan to keep the globe a secret, but don't spread it around." ”

"I know it," Fang Guozhen smiled awkwardly, took a sip of the wine poured by the maid while serving the maid, and then continued: "After looking at the globe, I only knew that it was only more than a thousand miles." ”

Zhu Yuan teased: "I regret it, if you had been bold back then and fled to Japan with someone, you might be able to be a Japanese king now." ”

Fang Guozhen shook his head: "I was worried about Pingzhang, what kind of king is there." ”

In the end, there was someone around, the two didn't talk much about this topic, Fang Guozhen quickly turned to his young son: "...... Ming Min entered the Hanlin Academy, and has been repairing books for half a year, and I heard that they are all the books you have selected, and I have read some of the "Dream Creek Writings" at the moment, and I only think that it is really more practical than the four books and five classics......"

Fang Guozhen has three sons.

The eldest son, Fang Li, whose name is Minggong, is currently in Mingzhou.

The second son Fang Guan, the word is clear, in the first half of the year by Lao Zhu awarded the Tiger Ben Wei Zheng Wupin Thousand Households, followed to the north, participated in the battle of Dadu, at the end of last month, the imperial examination, Lao Zhu sent the Hu Ben Wei soldiers to be responsible for the affairs of the field, and there were meetings.

Finally, there is Fang Xing, the word is sensitive.

Unlike his father and two elder brothers, Fang Xing likes poetry and books, and was also arranged by Lao Zhu to enter the Hanlin Academy in the first half of the year as a Zhengqipin reviser.

These are all things that Zhu Yuan knew when he was in Mingzhou, and Fang Li took the initiative to reveal them intentionally or unintentionally.

As for the revision of books......

I still have to say that Lao Zhu's perseverance, the original book list, from the original "Qi Min Yaoshu" to a series of mathematical works, and then to the "Mengxi Writings" mentioned by Fang Guozhen, Lao Zhu has not only been reading it himself, but also constantly asked the Hanlin Academy to compile and revise it.

For example, the new arithmetic books that began to be compiled very early on based on the traditional ten arithmetic classics such as "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and "Zhou Ji Sutra of Arithmetic", which combined the new numbers and new symbols given by Zhu Yuan, were completed before Zhu Yuan left Mingzhou.

Lao Zhu also personally nominated the "Commentary on the Collection of Calculations".

Zhu Yuan took the time to look at it.

Although, according to his later standards, he still needs a large degree of secondary revision, mainly to summarize various axioms and theorems, but in this era, compared with various previous mathematical classics, it is already a great progress.

All kinds of others, not only the 46 books that Zhu Yuan originally included in the book list, but also a lot of them, are also the same.

Moreover, one of the most critical meanings of the whole thing is that in one word: use!

The official revision of books in the feudal era, whether it is a general classic or the vast "Yongle Canon", "Siku Quanshu" and the like, are often repaired, and they are repaired, just like the papers hundreds of years later, they are sent, they are sent, and there are very few of them that have been realized.

At the end of the day, it's because of the lack of direction.

I don't know what to do, just continue to improve the word 'li' that has proven to be effective, and others, although they are also developing, but because they are in a state of exploration, the speed of development is very slow.

Thinking about these divergently, Zhu Yuan remembered one and asked with a smile: "I don't know yet, Fang Li and them, how old are they?" ”

"Ming Gong is 32 years old, Ming Wan is 27 years old, Ming Min is much younger than his two elder brothers, he is only 22 years old this year, he was spoiled back then, he didn't like swords, guns, and he liked to read, so he let him concentrate on reading," Fang Guozhen said with some memories: "I didn't expect that my Fang family could still show off talent, then Song Lian praised him, saying that the article was well written, just ...... Oh, I can't see the good, haha. ”

Fang Guozhen brought the topic to his youngest son so obviously, Zhu Yuan didn't pretend not to understand, thought about it and said: "When the imperial examination papers are completed, the stall of Jinling University will be spread out, and people need to be employed, if you have no opinion, I will transfer Fang Xing over?" ”

Coming here today, in addition to visiting Zhu Yuan, there is also the matter of his youngest son.

If Zhu Yuan didn't expect it, Fang Guozhen could only find out later.

At that moment, hearing Zhu Yuan say this, Fang Guozhen immediately nodded: "Okay, hey, Pingzhang, to speak from my heart, I just want him to follow you every brother and feel stable." My family doesn't want anything else, and it's best to be safe and stable in the future. ”

As he spoke, he remembered the hairtail banquet the day before yesterday.

Although he is an idler who eats and does not know the official, but the rank is there, Fang Guozhen was also able to attend, and his position is quite high.

Therefore, I also observed the various states of the living beings in the West Building Hall that day.

The main one is the attitude of His Majesty the Emperor towards Zhu Yuan, this time, it couldn't be more obvious.

It's like being a younger generation.

Even, Fang Guozhen found that His Majesty the Emperor cared more about Zhu Yuan than the crown prince Zhu Biao on the other side.

After helping the Fang family gain a firm foothold in Jinling, Fang Guozhen had already decided to rely on the big tree of Zhu Yuan, and the day before yesterday, not only did Fang Guozhen confirm that his choice was correct, but also decided without delay that he had to be closer to it.

The second son entered the Tiger Benwei, which is not easy to do, but the third son is in the Hanlin Academy, and when he comes to Jinling University, which has a brighter future, Fang Guozhen thinks it must be a good idea.

The key is to get closer to Zhu Yuan.

The purpose of this trip was achieved, after lunch, and after some concern for Zhu Yuan to take care of his body, Fang Guozhen got up and said goodbye.

Seeing off Fang Guozhen, Zhu Yuan returned to the cabin.

Walk through the living room that has been cleaned up in a blink of an eye, and come to the innermost bedroom with a thick mattress, when I was alone before, I was fishing here, and there would be a girl by my side.

In the morning, I was accompanied by a black-faced man who could carry the top of the mountain, well, the key was not caught, but the side was wildly pulled......

There will be no next time.

Thinking so, a pair of small girls in thin clothes in the warm cabin took the initiative to help Zhu Yuan take off her shoes, and a large one behind her also rubbed over, still covered in fur and a fluffy plane tree.

Holding down the woman's head, Zhu Yuan moved to the small window and sat down.

Freehand followed up and asked with a smile: "Do adults still want to fish?" ”

"No, the fish in this lake are fighting with me," Zhu Yuan waved his hand and looked out the small window: "It still feels better on a snowy day, but now it's a sunny day, and there is no atmosphere." ”

"It's cold," Freehand said, took off his shoes and came over, stretched out his hand to close the small curtains, and handed over a gift list: "Fang Zuocheng sent it, according to your instructions, the slaves have accepted it." ”

Unlike others, since the Fang family decided to take refuge in themselves, Zhu Yuan agreed to come down, and there is no need to be too scrupulous about daily contacts.

Curious to open it.

In addition to some tonic curiosities such as bird's nest and pearls, there is also a set of books, "Song Hui Yao".

Zhu Yuan thought about it, remembered it, and pointed to the gift list: "This set of books...... I remember a lot of volumes, right? ”

Earlier in Minzhou, when people were collecting navigation-related information, I remember mentioning it in a document.

Freehand nodded: "500 volumes, two large boxes." ”

"Tsk, Lao Fang also has a heart, and he happens to fill my private study."

Compared with the previous ones that can be bought with money, such a set of books, in this era, is not something you can buy if you want to.

The pair of small widows next to them also learned to rub over with the appearance of Wutong, and they didn't like it in their hearts, but they didn't show it like a blank space, but they just motioned to the two girls next to them, Dianjiang and Yulouchun, to take the pillow and let their adults lean on, and continued to say to Zhu Yuan: "The slave has read it, it is a brand new copy, but it is very fine." ”

Zhu Yuan leaned on the pillow, nodded, grabbed the one that was pasted and pinched it, listening to a very familiar call, it felt like it really had its own characteristics, whether it was hundreds of years ago or hundreds of years later, it was almost the same.

These are two of the batches sent by the Shen family before, and at that time a song was running out, so the last ones were all called 'Didi', a Narako Didi, a Kaori Didi, a pair of sisters.

Moreover, they are very small, and they are similar in age to Caisang, but they are more than a head shorter than Caisang, which is the general state of Japanese people in this era.

It's pretty.

The two sisters have short and small faces, and their eyes are big, like two cats, in short, they are very Japanese.

I was savoring it, because the pillow had been driven away by some sycamores.

Zhu Yuan pushed the woman's head away again, looking at the woman's pitiful eyes, but a little deviated.

Well.

This one, for sure, doesn't shout 'oh, god' or anything like that.

Just know how to eat.

Fortunately, there are no signs of eating fat, probably ...... It seems that they can only let go of eating here by themselves, and they will not let it go.

Writing opinions, my own adults are interested, and I wonder if I want to quit.

Don't worry about some.

A few days ago, the three ...... of the Wu family It's just a pillow, the self-control of his own adults, and a few freehand not only don't doubt it, but even to the extent of resentment.

Of course, at this time......

Considering their own adult bodies, they didn't dare to think about anything else.

Just after eating, it wasn't time to take a nap, Zhu Yuan didn't do anything else, just teased the three around him, remembered it, and asked freehand: "Is the first chapter of "Dream of Red Mansions" written, send it over and read it to me?" ”

Zhu Yuan had to recuperate because of 'quack-', but the preparations for "Daming Monthly" did not stop.

In fact, not only "Daming Monthly", everything has not stopped.

Just like the 'museum' project mentioned to Lao Zhu two days ago, Zhu Yuan sketched a rough architectural sketch with the help of Luo Shui before going to bed that night, and also dictated some ideas, and handed it over to the general to choose the address the next day.

It will probably be near Xuanwu Lake.

It's not Zhu Yuan's selfishness.

Jinling Castle ...... There is really nothing Zhu Yuan is optimistic about, and even if there is, it is inevitable that it will be demolished and rebuilt, which is too troublesome.

In comparison, if it is placed near Xuanwu Lake outside the city, many things will be much simpler.

Also, it was related to the open 'economics' that was approved by Lao Zhu that day.

Zhu Yuan has not been able to complete the 'study of economics', but this does not prevent Zhu Yuan from quickly informing Jinling University to temporarily add an 'economics major' so that the students can be prepared.

This also increases the projected total number of majors at Jinling University from 15 to 16.

That's right.

For the upcoming Jinling University, Zhu Yuan is completely set up on demand, and whatever talent is lacking in the short-term plan, he will set up any major.

Including the newly added 'Economics Major', there will be a total of 16 majors at Jinling University in the initial stage.

In addition to the 'Department of Economics', the other 15 majors are 'Chinese Studies', 'Law', 'Agriculture', 'Mathematics', 'Physics', 'Chemistry', 'Geography', 'Oceanography', 'Civil Engineering', 'Water Conservancy', 'Machinery', 'Architecture', 'Art', 'Metallurgy' and 'Meteorology'.

All 16, Zhu Yuan's most satisfying point is...... Neat!

Well......

In fact, I also considered it at the beginning, not a major, but an academy.

That is to say, Jinling University, with 16 subordinate colleges.

Considering the future demand for talents in the Ming Dynasty, a university has 16 colleges within it, and then subdivides various majors, which can fully support it.

Still, it's better to think about it.

In the current circumstances, there is no need for this for the time being.

Moreover, it is only the beginning of everything, although the corresponding major, although it has its own name, but in the case of a high probability, many students will become generalists in the future, rather than delving into one direction at a very deep level.

It's like the early days of the school, where the identities of students and teachers are not too clear.

Zhu Yuan's idea that students of various majors get together, learn together, make progress together, and become teachers, and wise men are teachers, which is probably like this.
