Chapter 279: Print Your Own Book and Let the Confucian Students Cry
With the help of Dongfang Shuo, Sima Qian, Zhang Tang and several other big readers, the 'monographs' of several little women in the Yang Chuan family finally had some decent names.
For example, the arithmetic textbook compiled by Liu Man can be called "The Book of Mathematics of the Great Han Dynasty" (three volumes of elementary, middle and high school); A series of textbooks on farming and crops compiled by Zhiniang were named "Four People's Moon Order", "Han Min's Technique", "Dahan Agricultural Classic", and "Agricultural Mulberry Collection".
Originally, Yang Chuan also wanted to make a world famous book such as the 'Complete Book of Agricultural Administration', but after thinking about it, forget it, he has to leave a small path for future generations.
As for Naren Toya's books, they are relatively simple and simple, nothing more than "The Principle of Poultry Manure Fertilizer", "Two or Three Things to Increase the Production of Cattle and Sheep Manure", and "Cattle and Sheep Breeding Manual......
Hearing the names of these books, Naren Toya was aggrieved, so she had to hug Liu Man and cry in protest.
For personal small emotions, Yang Chuan ignored them all.
He has a very clear idea of how to set up a school, build a medical center, and compile teaching materials, and he does it easily, and basically does not bother much.
After all, in the next two thousand years, there are enough lessons to keep him from going too biased......
However, it was this kind of big thing that first went wrong-
The school was built, but no teachers could be hired.
Dongfang Shuo and Sima Qian, who were in charge of this matter, were almost scolded half to death by Yang Chuan, and wrote countless 'invitation letters' to Chang'an City and those protΓ©gΓ©s, but only three or five scholars came.
However, when these three or five people heard that in the school in Shuofang County, not only the sage's subtle words and righteousness were taught, but also agriculture, arithmetic, breeding, etc., even those few people secretly ran away.
Damn, these people are so annoying!
When Dongfang Shuo and Sima Qian told Yang Chuan about their current predicament with bitter faces, Yang Chuan scolded directly and pointed to the south bank of the river: "Those bullshit readers, what the hell!" β
"Lao Tzu invited them to come over to teach, it was to give them face, these dog thieves, in order to enter the Tai Academy, everyone was kneeling and licking Lao Tzu; It's good now, Lao Tzu hasn't retired yet, and those old thieves are going to stumble and throw their faces? β
"Grass and mud horses, not only want to be a, but also want others to write books for them to set up a tree archway, how can there be such a good thing in the world? I want to be a special mother's chicken! β
"Dog, since you don't have a shame on your face, Lao Tzu will simply smash your special mother's Dogecoin face!"
βHE~~~TUIοΌοΌοΌβ
Listening to Yang Chuan's scolding of 'not choosing words', a series of brand-new swear words flowed naturally, and Sima Qian and Dongfang Shuo, two big readers, were stunned.
It turns out that scolding can still be so resentful?
"This, Marquis Changning, what should I do about this?" Dongfang Shuo coughed lightly and said with a sad face: "When my former friend received our letter, when he heard that he was going to come to Shuofang, he was the first reluctant to come, after all, this place is too desolate and the conditions are too poor;
Secondly, there is the most fundamental difficulty, that is, when those who read the book heard that we mainly taught agriculture, arithmetic, and even medicine, many people politely declined......"
Sima Qian was also at a loss, and scolded: "At the beginning, my father Sima Tan once helped many young students, found a way for them, and got together to give them a way out; Now, I heard that they are going to be invited to teach in Shuofang County, even if they are given an official position, no one will do it! β
After Yang Chuan scolded randomly, his emotions gradually calmed down.
Those scholars in the Han Empire, who are really shameless, have to add a quick success, one is shallower than the other's eye sockets.
That's it.
Give them a hard ......
After pondering for a long time, Yang Chuan suddenly said: "Since the school has opened, a few of you will work hard for the time being, and give everyone a lesson or two, in addition, mainly let Zhiniang and Naren Tuoya go over first to teach some knowledge of agriculture and mulberry crops, and transition to a stage." β
"Since those scholars look down on our Shuofang County, they will think of a way to make our Shuofang County rise quickly and become something they will never get...... Ahem, let Shuofang County become a holy place for them to look up to. β
"Kind words can't be pleased."
"Then, let those dogs come on their knees!"
Sima Qian and Dongfang Shuo looked at each other, not understanding what nonsense Yang Chuan was talking about.
Seeing the expressions of the two big scholars, Yang Chuan could almost guess that these two goods must be muttering in his heart, thinking that he, a seventeen-year-old young man, was here to brag nonsense.
"Sima Qian, as far as I know, your Sima family's collection of books should be one of the best in the world, right?" Yang Chuan suddenly asked.
Sima Qian nodded, and said quite proudly: "In the family of historians, there must be so many thousands of volumes of solitary, rare and rare books, and even the emperor has to borrow my family's books every once in a while and let the palace people copy one or two books." β
Yang Chuan nodded, stroked his palms and smiled: "That's easy to do." β
"By the way, you make a list first, and select more than a dozen books on arithmetic, agriculture and mulberry and medical works, which are the books that those bullshit readers look down on the most, but are of great use to us, and the two of you will carefully determine the school and hand it over to Ben Hou."
Sima Qian frowned and asked, "Changning Hou, is this going to be?" β
Yang Chuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Benhou has its own wonderful use......
β¦β¦
In the blink of an eye, the spring ploughing of Shuofang County began.
Because of the full preparation before, whether it is ploughing cattle, horses, mules and other large animals, or Yuanshuo plows, Yuanshuo rakes, Yuanshuo ditchers, or stone sulfur mixtures, sprayers, etc., we are truly prepared.
Yang Chuan organized the existing tens of thousands of people into seven or eight professional teams, such as a reclamation team, a farm tool team, a transportation team, and a pesticide spraying team, each performing its own duties, promoting each other, and quickly plunging into the spring land reclamation action.
Under his guidance, the reclamation team first dug a separation zone along the Yinshan area, and then ordered more than a dozen teams of county soldiers to set fire to the wasteland along the way.
As for the Huns who were abducted by Yang Chuan and Tangyi's father, they were even more frightened and uneasy, seeing a large area of barren grass, with a sweeping fire, turned into a white land, and some elderly Huns even knelt on the ground, crying bitterly.
Forage, to the Huns, was like a crop to a farmer.
Some of them began to wonder if the 'Heavenly Khan' they were willing to follow was reliable......
Of course, none of this matters.
What matters is the efficiency of reclamation!
Prior to this, truckloads of 'stone sulfur mixtures' were continuously transported, and after the land burned by the fire was completely sanitized, it could be cultivated.
More than 15,000 ploughing oxen, mules and horses, and more than 15,000 Yuanshuo plows, three and a half hours a day, can almost plough 780,000 acres of land; More than 20,000 follow-up teams formed dozens of transport teams to carry a large amount of forage and farm tools.
The freshly turned earth, wet and black, exudes a charming smell, and in the spring sun, it appears a yellowish, fertile earth color in a black layer.
This land that has been silent for 10,000 years has finally ushered in an unprecedented reclamation action.
According to Yang Chuan's requirements, all newly turned land must be used to scoop out the grass roots with a 'Yuan Shuo rake', and completely remove the weed roots buried deep in the soil.
In the Guanzhong Plain of the Han Empire, it was very common for the newly reclaimed land to have no harvest in the first two or three years, so few big dog households were willing to spend too much money and grain to open up the wasteland.
How could Yang Chuan have so much time to waste?
Therefore, he tried his best to find a way to make the land of Shuofang County have a large amount of income in the first year of reclamation, and only in this way can the means of some Ka leeks he prepared before be useful......
β¦β¦
In the case of the Great Army, the speed of reclamation in Shuofang County is amazing.
Moreover, because of the use of some new agricultural tools, even those Huns quickly mastered the techniques of plowing the land, raking the land, harrowing the land, fertilizing, and sowing, and there were almost no idlers.
Of course, Yang Chuan, who is the Marquis of Changning and the Taishou of Shuofang County, naturally wants to be idle.
Thousands of years of historical facts have proved that when the leader of an empire or county is busy with various specific government affairs all day long, then the empire or county is almost equivalent to being abolished.
Therefore, Yang Chuan can only do nothing all day long, ride a little mare, go outside the city to see the spring scenery outside the city, or go to the fields to see the magnificent reclamation scene, so that he can also be excited.
And most of the time, he is actually digging tunnels.
Like the Yang fiefdom in Chang'an City, no matter where he settled, Yang Chuan was the first to do it, to build an underground warehouse, and at the same time, to dig a few emergency escape channels for himself;
Little people, have their own little people's minds, he is not willing to put his own small life, pinning on the protection of others, it turns out that there are many emperors in history who hide in the deep palace, under the protection of the inner guards, have not been cut off their heads?
So, in order to survive, he never tires of it.
As for the time outside of digging tunnels, he is actually more with Ah Shu, Ah Lang and other half-sized children, instructing them how to soak wood fibers, silk linen, etc. into wood pulp, and then make those wood pulps into sheets of rice paper after special treatment.
The technology of making rice paper is not very mature, so the toughness and purity of the paper are not enough, and in later generations, it is at most better than raw edge paper.
However, even so, it was already considered the highest quality paper in the Han Empire, such as most of the paper on Yangchuan Zhuangzi, which was sold to the Inner Mansion, the Prime Minister's Mansion and some big dog families, and became one of the valuable items they showed off.
At the same time, he also asked Dongfang Shuo to do one thing: carved two or three thousand common characters of the clay mold, and then, let the cousin's father and half of the eldest son find a way to pour out several sets of 'copperplate letters'; in order to increase the appearance and mystery of this set of copperplate letters, Yang Chuan also took out a few catties of gold, and asked those stinky boys to find a way to re-melt and cast into a kind of 'real gold' that is more beautiful than gold.
At the beginning, Dongfang Shuo didn't know what Yang Chuan wanted to do, and when he was engraving, he was still a little emotional.
Outcome.
When he saw that Yang Chuan had smelted those gold, brass and a few strange metals, cast individual 'character molds', and tried to 'arrange and combine', this kind-hearted scholar finally realized: "Young Master Yang Chuan, are you trying to break the foundation of some scholars?" β
Dongfang Shuo, this guy, has really opened his mouth, and he can hit the point with a casual sentence.
Yang Chuan looked at Dongfang Shuo's mouth strangely, and asked with a smile: "Dongfang Shuo, what do you mean by this?" β
Dongfang Shuo's face was flushed with excitement, he rubbed his hands vigorously, and said with a smile: "Some famous scholars actually have no ability, but they can't bear the collection of books in a few rooms at home.
You made this set of character patterns, plus your Yang's rice paper, and you want a book, isn't it a dry Dandan?
It's just that, in this way, the status of some scholars is naturally not so important, but doesn't it break their foundation? β
Yang Chuan patted Dongfang Shuo's shoulder, and did not pick out the logical error in his words, but encouraged him warmly: "Those dogs refuse to come to Shuofang County to teach, Lao Tzu prints more books and sees if anyone comes to read, hahaha." β
Dongfang Shuo also laughed.
He didn't know that Yang Chuan's mind was actually more profound, he not only wanted to break the foundation of some scholars, but also wanted to break the foundation of some schools......
However, this idea was too vicious for him to say.
"Young Master Yang Chuan, which is the first book we printed?" Dongfang Shuo was so excited that he began to scratch his ears and cheeks.
Yang Chuan smiled and asked, "Which one do you think will be printed first?" β
Dongfang Shuo groaned a few times, and asked tentatively: "Or, Lianshan?" Alternatively, it can be ...... No, no, it's still Zhouyi! β
Yang Chuan nodded: "Okay, let's rub three thousand Zhou Yi for us first." β
Dongfang Shuo was taken aback, couldn't help but stumble under his feet, and stammered and asked, "Do you want to rub it...... Three thousand? β
Yang Chuan sighed and said: "No way, the materials and manpower at hand are limited, and the rice paper produced can't meet the needs, so let's print three thousand copies first, Ben Hou asked Sima Qian, and the first batch of children in Shuofang County who can go to school are only two or three thousand, so give each of them a week first."
I Ching, the first of a hundred classics, is not very cold to think about;
By the way, Zhou Yi that Ben Hou needs, wants the simplest book, the whole book of Beth-Niang that others don't understand when watching football, you have to do this......"
Dongfang Shuo sat down on the ground, his face was a little faintly pale, and he muttered in his mouth: "Three thousand Zhou Yi, worth 30,000 gold......"
Yang Chuan laughed, turned his head and commanded a half-grown man: "Zhou Yi's typesetting, let Mr. Dongfang Shuo toss it himself, a few of you, first give us a few books on elementary arithmetic, agricultural mulberry compendium, hundred family names, thousand-character essays and poultry breeding." β
"For each one, just print 3,000 copies first."
"What's it called? This is, print your own books and make those who read them cry......
