Although these were all his guesses, he said firmly:

"Do you really think that arithmetic is useless?"

As soon as these words came out, many students couldn't help but bow their heads and fell into deep thought.

Whether arithmetic is useful or not, they should experience it for themselves. After all, most of the students in Lanxiang Academy are children from poor families.

In their hands, they have more or less some ways to make ends meet.

And in these ways, to a greater or lesser extent, the method of calculation is used. Therefore, the improvement of learning arithmetic is actually obvious.

So, a student said:

"I keep accounts for the carriage and horse shop, and after learning arithmetic, it is much easier to keep accounts."

"I was in the grain store, checking the accounts for people. Not to mention, since I learned arithmetic, I have become much more efficient. In the past, it took three or four days to put down the warehouse, but now it only takes two days. And it's extremely accurate! ”

"Yes, yes, I ...... when I was settling accounts in the Qinglou"

Halfway through the student's words, he felt countless eyes around him, all of which were directed at him.

He coughed lightly, quickly lowered his head, and walked away.

"So, you brothers have already found out about it."

Zhao Yu smiled faintly and put on a humble gentleman's posture.

"Please ask yourself, is the arithmetic taught in our Lanxiang Academy really useless?"

"Of course not!"

Many people shook their heads in unison and began to reflect on the skills they had learned at Lanxiang Academy.

Although it is of little significance to the imperial examination, it can make their lives much better in the future.

Just by relying on a little bit, the students of the Mathematics are full of gratitude to Lanxiang Academy in their hearts.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and then spoke again:

"Think about it again, our academy has evening self-study. In the evening self-study, no matter what you study, it is all your freedom. If you don't understand something, you can also ask the gentleman on duty. ”

"Dare to ask you, except for Lanxiang Academy, can other academies have this night's self-study?"

When the students heard this, they subconsciously shook their heads.

In fact, when they first entered Lanxiang Academy, they were extremely shocked when they heard that there was such a thing as evening self-study.

After all, according to the living habits of the Great Zhou, although it is not made at sunrise and rests at sunset. But once the sun goes down, most people still choose to go back to their homes.

Even if he reads hard in the middle of the night, he sits alone in front of the cold window, lighting an oil lamp and reading.

But this Lanxiang Academy has brought the students together for the first time, and has also arranged for a gentleman on duty.

Just by relying on this point, no one can find fault with any students.

At this time, in fact, the students already had a sense of gratitude to Lanxiang Academy in their hearts.

It's just that there are still a small number of students who don't give up and continue to ask:

"But even so, our academy still pays too much attention to arithmetic. In my opinion, there is no need to waste so much time waiting for me! ”

When many students heard this, they nodded in agreement.

In the eyes of most students, arithmetic is just a trail and not worth mentioning.

But only Yang Dong knew in his heart that arithmetic has never been a small way. To some extent, the development of science cannot be avoided in any case.

This is also the reason why Yang Dong did not have much sense of substitution whenever he saw the crossing in his previous life.

But one thing to say, he still likes the part of flirting with girls.

Ahem......

At this moment, a gentleman in a navy blue robe outside the door slowly walked into the dormitory.

In fact, he had been listening to the students' debates outside the door for a long time.

Regarding Zhao Yu's speech, even this gentleman was a little surprised.

You must know that these students do not know the reason why Lanxiang Academy vigorously develops arithmetic.

But just because the students don't know doesn't mean the gentlemen don't know.

In fact, it was precisely because the gentlemen's initial work was not in place that the students wavered about the teaching mode of Lanxiang Academy.

However, it is not too late to make amends.

The gentleman was now aware of the omissions of these teachers.

So he gently pushed open the door of the dormitory and said in a deep voice:

"Students, in fact, you are too worried."

As soon as these words came out, there was an immediate silence in the dormitory.

The eyes of the students turned to Mr. Many students even bowed slightly and saluted Mr.

The gentleman returned the salute, and then he spoke eloquently:

"Actually, you don't know, at the beginning of the establishment of our Lanxiang Academy, the mountain chief had already set the tone."

"The students who came out of our academy can directly enter the yamen for internship without passing the imperial examination."

As soon as these words came out, the students present were all wide-eyed and dumbfounded!

"What? Can they go directly to the yamen without passing the imperial examination? In this world, how can there be such a good thing? ”

In the hearts of many people, a touch of absurdity emerges.

But soon, they came back to their senses.

Who is the head of this Lan Xiang Academy? That's the famous Great Zhou Shixian, Yang Gong!

In the capital, no one knows that Yang Gong is a close confidant of His Majesty.

In this way, it is possible to make a bold guess.

For example, behind this Lanxiang Academy, maybe it is His Majesty on the dragon chair, not Chief Yang.

Only in this way can they, the students of Lanxiang Academy, enter the yamen directly without passing the imperial examination.

But at this time, some students asked puzzledly:

"Sir, dare to ask what this internship means?"

"The so-called internship is actually that after you have achieved academic success, you can arrange to go to the yamen for three months of training according to your grades. During the training period, Yu Lu was sixty percent of other officials. ”

"After the experience is completed, the outstanding ones can stay in the yamen and be appointed as officials."

Mr.'s words instantly caused an uproar among the students present.

It turned out that they could enter the yamen without passing the imperial examination!

It's just an internship, but don't you hear that? Not only are there those who are good, but even those who have performed well can be appointed as officials.

In this way, wouldn't their future be incomparably brighter?

At this moment, all the students present were glad that they did not leave with other students a few days ago.

Otherwise, such a good thing will definitely not fall on your head.

And if you really miss it, I'm afraid you'll regret it for the rest of your life, right?

At this point, many students have completely dispelled the idea of leaving Lanxiang Academy.

At this moment, the gentleman spoke again:

"Arithmetic is not a trivial matter, if you want to be appointed in the future, stay in the yamen. Arithmetic needs to be learned! I remember what the mountain chief said...... Arithmetic talents are a scarce type of talent in the imperial court.
