Chapter 205: Deceiving people to copy books

Although Zhao Hanzhang was disappointed, he still ran to Zhao Hu's house and picked up all the books.

Because she is also lacking.

Books at this time were too difficult to buy, even simple enlightenment books.

Generally, bookstores in county towns sell more pens, inks, paper, inkstones and other stationery, but books are the least.

At least when Ji Yuan went shopping, he didn't buy a few books suitable for enlightenment students.

Zhao Hanzhang also kept a lot of books, but there were no extra volumes. Even though she prided herself on being generous, she was not willing to give these books to people who were just enlightened.

So I can only copy books!

Zhao Hanzhang handed over such an important task to his elder brother and younger brothers who had just been poached.

Zhao Hanzhang handed out the paper he just took out from Zhao Hu's house, "Brothers, I know you all want to find the answer as soon as possible, and so do I, so why not start looking for the answer from now on?"

After receiving the paper and book handed over by Zhao Hanzhang, the teenagers looked confused, "What is this?"

Zhao Hanzhang: "The book you want to copy."

The teenagers were even more confused. They lowered their heads and looked at the books in their hands, "The Urgent Chapter, the Training and Compilation Chapter, and the Encouraging Learning Chapter. Aren't these books of enlightenment? Why should we copy them?"

Zhao Hanzhang said with a serious face: "Brothers, do you want to despise these three books because they are just enlightenment books?"

She said: "You must know that these three articles have replaced the three articles of "Cangjie" that were continued and revised by Yang Xiong, Cai Yong and others."

The teenagers were stunned, and Zhao Kuan immediately said: "We don't look down on this enlightenment book, we are just confused. What does the answer we are looking for have to do with these three books?"

"Although these three books are just enlightenment books, they are also the foundation of hundreds of schools of thought and are all-encompassing. The allusions and principles in them involve hundreds of schools of thought. If you want to know whether mathematics is the mother of hundreds of schools of thought, then start studying here. "

Zhao Kuan said: "We have all memorized it."

Zhao Hanzhang: "But only by copying can people think more deeply about the meaning of the words. And as I said before, you have to follow my instructions when you enter the county government office. Now I will let you copy the book!"

The teenagers: "...how many copies should I copy?"

Zhao Hanzhang: "Let's do it ten times each time."

The eyes of all the young men dimmed, and Zhao Kuan, as the representative, asked: "...Everyone?"

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "Everyone!"

In other words, one person has to copy thirty books...

Zhao Kuan was about to resist, but Zhao Cheng had already walked out of the pavilion and directly ordered, "Han Zhang is right. Although these three books are enlightenment books, there are many truths in them. You have read a lot in these years and traveled a lot, but But you may not be able to remember the principles you learned during your enlightenment, let alone practice them.”

"As the saying goes, reviewing the past and learning the new, you should re-read the enlightenment book." Zhao Cheng said: "I will start copying the book tonight and submit one article every day. I will check it."

The teenagers couldn't help but wailed, and they all regretted it. If they had known better, they would not have made this bet with Zhao Hanzhang.

There are many ways to find the answer, why did they choose the least controllable one?

Zhao Hanzhang felt relieved when he saw that there were also copywriters. After the mutton feast, he took Fu Tinghan back to the county seat.

Zhao Erlang stayed in Wubao to continue his service and would go back tomorrow.

He made friends with Zhao Zheng, who was only eight years old. The two seemed to have a good relationship, so Zhao Erlang had no objection at all to being left at home.

Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan rode back slowly, talking about some confidential matters. Qiu Wu and others followed at a distance.

"Are you planning to let Zhao Cheng enlighten all the children in Yushan Hall?"

Zhao Hanzhang shook his head directly, "This is unrealistic. Firstly, I am not so wealthy now. Secondly, Zhao Cheng may not agree to take a big class and teach everyone without distinction."

It is simple to say "education without discrimination", but in this era, few can actually achieve it.

Some of the children in the Yushan Hall were once well-off, but their families were ruined because of the city’s collapse; there were also children from poor families, and there were even orphans who were in the Yushan Hall before the city was destroyed; there were also beggars who had been begging in the city since they were young. .

Nowadays, even if you want to be an official, you have to determine your rank first, and among the nine ranks, the first thing to look at for official status is family background.

So she wasn't sure that Zhao Cheng would be willing to teach these children, regardless of education.

Without knowing enough about Zhao Cheng, she did not plan to take action in areas that might cause disputes, lest she lose a good talent.

Fu Tinghan nodded and said: "Education is very important, but it must also be done step by step. My suggestion is to first train county government officials, officials, and military commanders."

"Heroes see the same thing," Zhao Hanzhang said excitedly: "When I saw Zhao Cheng and my brothers, it was like seeing teachers one after another."

"In addition to the county officials, officials, and junior officers in the army, you can also choose some older and clever children from the Yushan Hall to learn from them," she said: "I don't have many requirements, as long as They can finish reading these three enlightenment books, recognize 30% of the words in them, and then know simple addition and subtraction."

Although they may only have the knowledge reserves of the third grade of elementary school, they can still be used, and some simple county work can be assigned to them.

Zhao Hanzhang is in short supply now.

Fu Tinghan asked: "Have you ever thought about writing your own enlightenment textbooks?"

"Are you talking about the Thousand-Character Classic and the Three-Character Classic?"

Fu Tinghan nodded, "Don't you remember? I can still remember most of it. I thought that with your memory and understanding of literature and history, Teacher Zhao, you should remember it more."

"Remember," she just never thought of it this way.

Zhao Hanzhang touched his chin and said, "It's not impossible. I'll write it when I get back. Then I'll use the two sets of enlightenment books together to see how quickly I can read, and finally decide which set is the best."

This is what they say, but Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan knew in their hearts that the "Thousand-Character Classic" and the "Three-Character Classic" should be able to defeat the "Xunzhuan" and other three articles.

After all, it has been verified by thousands of years of history.

"It's a pity that after I came out, I could only spread it by hand. We didn't have a printing shop."

Fu Tinghan mentally calculated the materials that Yushantang might consume in the future, shook his head and said: "If you want to expand education, books are essential. It is too difficult to just copy books. Although the book printing shop is difficult, it still has to be done."

Seeing Zhao Hanzhang's move, he asked: "Just one step and let people study movable type printing?"

Zhao Hanzhang thought for a moment and then shook his head, "Forget it, there are very few literate people in the entire county, let alone literate craftsmen. I'm afraid it will take the entire city to do movable type printing."

"Food is also very important now, so we can't take up the labor force of farming," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let's study woodblock printing. If we only print enlightenment books, then woodblock printing is the cheapest and most convenient to operate."
