That's right, it is the famous "Four Sentences of Hengqu" in later generations!

These four sentences came from the great Confucian Zhang Zai of the Song Dynasty, thousands of years later, not only are they still popular, but also more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!

It is the quatrain of the people of the Celestial Empire, which can best express a person's responsibility and mission to the country and society, concise and concise, and the realm is far-reaching!

Even the first reading of the book by ordinary Chinese will arouse strong resonance.

For Xunzi, Li Si, Han Fei and others, these four sentences are even more significant.

At this moment, Xunzi and others seemed to have a collision of ideas with Zhang Zai, spanning thousands of years of time and space, stirring up countless sparks.

I understand!

In an instant, countless unresolved questions in Xunzi's mind suddenly became clear.

In an instant, Li Si and Han Fei's hearts fluttered, and they jumped out of the trap and understood their mission.

It must be explained that it is not that Zhang Zai is smarter than these three great sages, but that these four sentences condense the thinking of literati for thousands of years, and these four sentences are a summary and sublimation of the thoughts of literati for thousands of years. These thoughts originated from Xunzi, but they are higher than Xunzi!

Not only that, but the ideas contained in these four sentences have also undergone the edification of the great unified culture, leading the reader's attention to the whole world!

When it comes to the lofty intentions, there is no way in the world!

The more Xun Zi pondered these four sentences, the more excited he became, and in the end, his voice was a little choked, and he said: "Dare to ask the prince, which is the great sage, who wrote such four sentences!

"It's Prince Ben. "

"Sure enough!" Xun Zi nodded heavily and said, "Perhaps, only the world-famous Zhao Gongzi Yan can write such deafening words." After he is old, he has to ask the prince for more advice. "

"Eh, I'm young and thin, but I can't afford to ask for advice. But ......" Zhao Yan raised his eyebrows and said: "This prince wants to use these four sentences as the palace motto of Handan Academy, I don't know what Xunzi thinks?"

These four sentences, as the palace motto of the Handan School Palace, could not be better...... Uh......"

Having said this, Xunzi suddenly felt that something was wrong...... Yes, in this way, doesn't it mean that he has agreed to be the sacrificial wine of the Handan School Palace?

Although I now feel that with the knowledge of Prince Zhao and the magnificence of this Handan School Palace, the Jixia School Palace should be relocated.

But the stakes are high, and it is a bit hasty to decide now?

Zhao Yan was not in a hurry to let Xunzi express his position, and continued to introduce: "Although the Handan School Palace has not sacrificed wine now, it has temporarily built a framework. The people of the palace, based on this palace motto, have made some achievements. "

"What??Handan Academy, there are achievements now?" Xunzi was moved again.

He understands that if Zhao Yan said that there are achievements, then the results will definitely not be simple!

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations", what kind of achievements can be associated with these 26 words?

Zhao Yan said: "Of course there is." Xunzi will be able to see it immediately. "

While speaking, everyone has arrived at the door of the "Ink Institute of Technology".

There is an old man with gray hair, short stature, and a resolute face, and he has been waiting for more than 30 people for a long time.

He bowed in unison and said, "Mo Yuan and thirty-seven professors from the College of Engineering, see the prince!"

Zhao Yan held his hands and said, "Everyone's excuse me." This prince will introduce to you, this is the famous Xun situation of the Six Kingdoms, and Xunzi is also. "

"We've seen Xunzi. "

"Don't dare to be. Xunzi hurriedly replied and said, "Mo Yuan?

"Yes, it's Mo someone.

"Mo Yuan: After the death of the ancestor, the Mo Gate was divided into four, and Mo was the giant son of the ink of a hundred crafts.

We first voted for Wei and made a piece of armor for Wei.

Last year, it was transferred to Zhao by King Wei.

To tell the truth, although we defected to the Wei State, we were by no means slaves of the King of Wei, and we were deeply ashamed to be sent like this, and we did not intend to obey our fate.

However, the envoy of Zhao State warmly invited him, and sent his son to write a silk book by his own hand......

I saw that Zhao Guo was thirsty for talent, so I reluctantly agreed to come to this Handan School Palace to have a look.

But since entering this Han Palace, have you ......

?"

"How?"

"We can only say that we are fortunate to be able to come to this Handan School Palace!"

Speaking of this, the smug look on the faces of Mo Yuan and the others could not be concealed. It's almost like writing directly on his face, and he wants to show off his achievements in Handan School Palace to Xunzi.

Xunzi asked very knowingly: "But I don't know, can the old man have the honor to see the latest achievements of the ink of a hundred crafts?"

"Absolutely. "

Everyone entered the Ink Engineering Academy, and soon saw the first achievement of Mo Yuan and others - a cow pulling a strangely shaped object.

"Could this be a plow?" asked Xunzi.

Farming is the theme of this era, and no great sage has no study of farming.

Mo Yuan said: "This thing is indeed a plow, but it is not an ordinary plow, but it is called a Quyuan plow." This curved plough was made by me under the guidance of the prince. Belch...... Xunzi can know that if you pull ordinary pears with medium oxen, how many acres of land can be cultivated in a day?"

"One to two acres of arable land. Xunzi said this common sense without hesitation.

Mo Yuan asked again: "Then Xunzi can know that if you use a medium ox to pull this curved plow, how many acres of land can be cultivated in a day?"

"Could it be...... Can it reach two or three acres?"

Two to three acres, which is already a lot.

That means that the efficiency of farming is directly doubled!

In this era, adult men may be called up by the state to fight at any time, and women are too weak to do the work of plowing the fields, so they can only rely on oxen or horses.

There are not enough cattle and horses, and I don't know how many fields are barren.

The fields are barren, and the natural people have no livelihood.

If anyone has a way to double the efficiency of farming, it is simply a Buddha of ten thousand families.

Such an achievement, of course, is worthy of the pride of Mo Yuan and the others just now.

However, when Mo Yuan heard this, he shook his head slightly, and said, "It's less, Xunzi guesses again!"

"Never...... Never ...... Can it reach four acres, right?" Xun Zi said.

"It's still less!"

"Can it reach five acres?" Xunzi's face was full of disbelief.

"Xunzi is too conservative, let me tell you. Mo Yuan stretched out his two big hands at the same time, and turned them excitedly: "Ten acres! A medium ox, with a curved plow, can plough ten acres of land every day!

"Ten acres of fruit...... Is that really the case?" Xunzi couldn't believe his ears at this moment.

"If Xunzi doesn't believe it, just check it face to face!"

Mo Yuan made a look, and naturally someone used the ox to pull the Quyuan plow to plough the field.

Slowly, slowly, with ease.

In less than half an hour, an acre of land had been ploughed.

From this point of view, Mo Yuan's words of ten acres a day are completely true!

Nonsense, this is the Quyuan plough that Zhao Yan opened from Zhou's gift bag.

In this era, ox ploughing iron plough is already a very advanced technology. Compared with the Han Dynasty's "two oxen lifting the bar" straight plough is far from the same, let alone the curved plow.

Quyuan plough is a ploughing technology invented in the Tang Dynasty, which directly increased the efficiency of ploughing in this era by more than five times.

What is the concept of more than five times?

This means that if the plough is in place, the existing ploughing can be completely completed, even if it is all operated by women.

I don't know how much grain and hemp can be increased, and I don't know how many people can be saved from freezing and starving!

With such a great achievement, what reason is there not to be proud?

This is the glory they deserve!

Xunzi couldn't help but bow deeply to Mo Yuan and the others, and said, "Mozi guards the city, and there are countless living people. Mozi's saying, like my Confucianism, is the world's manifest learning. However, with this qu yuan plough alone, the giant son's merits are no less than that of Mozi! Please accept someone Xun to worship on behalf of the people of the world!"

"This can't be helped!"

Mo Yuan hurriedly staggered a step and said, "This Quyuan plough is made by my hundred craftsmen under the guidance of Prince Da Zhao. In terms of the first merit, it should be the prince, and Mo does not dare to live alone. "

"That's pretty impressive, too. As for the crown prince......"

After a pause, Xunzi looked at Zhao Yan's face, bowed again, and said: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations." Relying on this plough alone, the old man believes that the prince is really a person who cares about the world and practices it personally. The old man admires it. "

"Actually, this curved plough is nothing. Zhao Yan said: "It's not a secret, this prince has one thing, which is more peaceful than the curved plow." "

"What? The prince has something more capable of opening up the peace of the world than Qu Yuan plow?"

If this statement didn't come from the mouth of Zhao Yan, who was famous all over the world, Xunzi wouldn't believe a word. Even if it comes from Zhao Yan's mouth, Xunzi is full of suspicion!_
