Chapter 269: Gewu, Turning Decay into Magic

The first day of school at Wynne College.

The scene is divided into two different situations.

The study hall is very lively, and the Gewu hall is deserted.

Is this unexpected?

It was a surprise indeed.

You know, in comparison, the Shoshodo charges a lot of tuition, and the Gewudo is free to enter.

One is to charge tuition, and the other is free admission.

Those who have a lot of people want money, and those who don't want money have no people.

It's not really an accident.

The knowledge taught in the Scholar Hall is something that people dream of, and it is the road to prosperity that can soar.

Gewutang, I don't know what the teaching is, except for being really idle, who would want to waste time.

Compared with the crowded talents of the Scholar Hall, Gewutang has two or three kittens.

In fact, the number of people should not be so small, after all, it is free, and there are still people who are driven by curiosity to see what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of Gewutang.

However, Gewutang is not someone who does not refuse.

Gewutang has its own standards for accepting students, and after screening, most of them are eliminated, and a small number remain.

There are five students in total, and one of them is Jiu'er.

The age is under the age of ten, which makes Jiu'er the oldest.

Enlightenment education should start from the child.

This is an age requirement.

Jiu'er is a special situation, and besides, she is not an enlightenment education, she has long been confident.

On the first day of class, everyone was ignorant and curious.

The process is indeed ignorant and novel.

In the classroom, there is a blackboard vertically, and Pei Yun is writing on it with chalk.

This scene alone is stunned.

What is this blackboard, and what is this chalk for writing.

These are things they haven't touched.

Among them, Jiu'er was the most surprised, and she was even more surprised because she knew more.

She has been educated since she was a child, and there are not ten teachers who have taught her to read, but also eight, and she knows exactly what it is like in class.

To teach, the teacher inevitably has to write, and as a writing tool, it is a sand table.

The teacher will use a wooden stick to write and draw on the sand to achieve the purpose of writing.

But this kind of writing has many drawbacks.

The writing marks left on the sand are not emotional enough, and students have to stand up and look around the sand table if they want to see what is written in the sand table.

This is a burden for the teacher as well, writing on the sand table with a wooden stick, and the need to bend over.

Simple writing is okay, and it is unbearable to bend over to write all the time.

Therefore, teachers teach more through word of mouth, and mostly impart knowledge in the form of explanations.

However, listening alone is not always as good as writing education.

And now, looking at the blackboard and chalk that Pei Yun used in class, Jiu'er has discovered a new world.

There are such things, and it is really most suitable to use them to replace the sand table sticks.

"Teacher, this ...... How could there be such a thing. Jiu'er couldn't help but ask.

Pei Yun: "If you have a question, I welcome it, but next time remember to raise your hand to ask a question." ”

This is the way to behave in a teaching class.

After being educated, Jiu'er didn't feel embarrassed, her mind was all on the blackboard and chalk, and she really raised her hand and said, "Is this the way to ask questions?" ”

Pei Yun: "Yes, since you have asked a question, then I will give you an answer, they are blackboard and chalk, chalk can be written on the blackboard, after writing, wipe it with a rag and clean again, with blackboard and chalk, you can write repeatedly, and you can also avoid the waste of paper and ink." ”

"It was called chalkboard and chalk." Jiu'er continued to raise her hand: "I don't know where this blackboard chalk came from. ”

Pei Yun: "I did it." ”

Jiu'er's tone gradually became excited: "Teacher, is this blackboard chalk difficult to make, it would be great if other teachers could also use it." ”

Pei Yun: "It's not difficult, I can tell you now, first use black charcoal to evenly smear the board, so that you can get the blackboard, as for the chalk, after calcining the gypsum with fire, add water and stir, and then condense it into strips in the mold, which can be used as chalk to write." ”

After hearing this, Jiu'er sat down satisfied, her face had such an expression, and there was an accident in it, but she didn't expect it to be so easy.

Pei Yun continued: "It's just right, I'm going to tell you a reason here. ”

I wrote the word Gewu on the blackboard with chalk.

"These two words are called Gewu, which is the knowledge I want to teach you."

"The meaning of the word Gewu, just talking about it, you will think it is too blank, so I will start with this blackboard chalk."

"Blackboard chalk is actually something you can see every day, they are actually black charcoal and gypsum, but all along, you only thought that they were just black charcoal and gypsum, but you didn't think that they could be used for other purposes."

"And I, on the other hand, can make them serve other purposes, and turn them into chalk on the blackboard, so as to make it easier to teach, and the result obtained by such an act is called Gewu."

"Gewu is to discover the different uses of an object, for example, before there is no paper, you can only record words through bamboo slips and wooden tablets."

"The appearance of paper is a kind of lattice."

"From the paper instead of bamboo and wooden slips, we can also know that Gewu can give people convenience in life."

"I have learned about your background, some of you are from poor families, and some of you are not from official careers."

"But, have you ever thought that in fact, you also have the ability to change the world."

"To make life more colorful is to change the world."

"And Gewu is changing the world you know."

"If you are from a poor family, have you ever thought that you can improve the tools for working and eating, so that your family can live a prosperous life."

"If you can't go on a career path, have you ever thought that you have other talents, and you can prove yourself as well."

"I know that you don't really know Gewu, but I can tell you that Gewu has the ability to turn decay into magic."

"Perhaps, you will think I am exaggerating."

"Whether I'm exaggerating or not, you can wait and see, and if you have any questions along the way, I'm welcome to bring them up."

"Don't be afraid to ask questions, thinking that it will annoy the teacher and that it will make you look stupid."

"This kind of thinking is wrong, as a teacher, I hope that students have problems, and having problems does not mean that they are stupid, but it proves that you have something to think, and a student who is willing to think is what teachers like to see the most."
