Chapter 165 Spring is here

After talking for a while, Wang Xiaoli pointed at Jiang Erlang and said, "I have lived in the village these days and I have seen the son-in-law being kicked out of the school every day. I thought he didn't study hard, which made people feel a pity. Later, I asked the husband and found out that the son-in-law was learning too fast, and now he is a little embarrassed."

Speaking of this, Jiang Yue was helpless: "What the official said is, we have no choice but to do this. If we were in Xinyang Town before, we could ask him to teach him some poetry and books. Now everything is difficult and there are no scholars around us. Besides, we can't afford to invite him, so we can only waste it like this."

Wang Xiaoliu said: "When I was in my hometown, did the son read books?"

Jiang Yue said: "We are ordinary farming families, and Erlang has never studied since he was a child. Besides, Erlang has been obedient since he was a child. He learns everything in the farmland quickly. He goes to the fields with me at the age of five or six. However, for a while, a wealthy family in the village hired a private school. Erlang often went to his doorstep and stood there to listen. He persisted for two or three months. But he didn't mention it again later."

Wang Xiaoli looked at Jiang Erlang on the side and felt strange. If he didn't run a school, this young man would be good at studying and would not be known to learn. Maybe his life would be like other people. When he grew up, he farmed with his parents, married a family, and lived a simple life. In this world, I don't know how many people are like Jiang Erlang.

There are many unreasonable aspects of the current school system. Children must learn to read for three years, but it is not enough to have less time. During this period, there is neither a graduation exam nor a mechanism for further study. It is just to let the people recognize some words. Like Jiang Erlang, he has learned very well and has no way out. To change this situation, it requires money, and Wang Xiaolie has no money.

After thinking about it, Wang Xiaolei said, "Since this child can learn so quickly, there must be something different from ordinary people. Let's do this, I will write a book and let him go to Dengzhou to find a future. There are two schools in Dengzhou now. One is a military academy to train officers. The current officers are different from before. They need to go to school to study. Only after they have learned well can they be assigned to the army. There are also schools that learn knowledge, but have not yet figured out their names. They have to learn various knowledge such as calligraphy and calculation. If they learn well, they have to work in the official workshops and other places. What they want to learn depends on you."

Jiang Yue rubbed his head and looked at Jiang Erlang. He said, "Officials, what's the use of learning craftsmanship? Since there is a military school, we naturally have to let the children go to the military school to learn. If you learn well, you can have a future."

Wang Xiaolei said: "Now this child only knows 1,500 words, poetry, books, and military slightest. It is not easy to think about the future. I will not interfere with this matter too much. You will think about it at home. Tomorrow morning, I will arrange it."

Jiang Yue hurriedly agreed and pulled Jiang Erlang to thank Wang Xiaoli.

Speaking of which, among the school children, Jiang Erlang was not young. He started to enlighten the school just because the school was just open and he was fourteen or five years old. Although Jiang Erlang was enlightened quickly, it was impossible to say whether he learned other things quickly or not. Due to the institutional defects, Jiang Erlang's development was restricted, so Wang Xiaolie helped.

Seeing that it was getting late, Wang Xiaoli said goodbye.

Jiang Yue hurriedly said, "The official went to the humble house for Erlang's affairs, so why did you leave now? The family is cooking wine and food, and they will kill another chicken later. Don't be disgusted by the officials. We have nothing to treat in the countryside."

Wang Xiaolei said: "I am not invisible to you. I do a lot of things every day and have no time. If I have the intention, I will talk about it later."

No matter how he couldn't keep Wang Xiaoli, Jiang Yue had to send him far away and thank him for his gratitude.

On the way, Wang Xiaoli said to Chen Yuyi: "People often sigh that there is no talent. In fact, God has fewer talents? It's just that some people are born in wealthy families, some are poor and sick, while others are ordinary families. Rich families are not bad, but even poor families are talented, where can they have the opportunity to learn? If they have the opportunity to learn, they have no chance to make their debut. Most ordinary families only want to eat two meals a day. If there is no special opportunity, even if they have very little ability, they will not have the opportunity to play out."

Chen Yuyi said: "Defense requires a wide range of schools, which means that it has such a profound meaning."

Wang Xiaoli smiled and said, "The sages have teachings but not differentiated. I do have the idea of ​​letting everyone educate the world, but the school is not. At this time, three years later, there was no exam for students to learn well or not, and there was no better place to go, just let them learn literacy. In the future, when the government had money, students could learn calligraphy and calculation in addition to literacy, and set up schools to select talents. These talents are not only used by the government, but also by many places among the people. Everyone is educated, and as long as they work hard, everyone has a future, then they will be considered good."

China is a country that attaches importance to education, but compared with the general education in later generations, the ancient times was far behind. It was not until the Song Dynasty that there were states and counties. In the past, many states did not even have colleges. Later education was learned from the West, and many places actually did not match the reality of China. However, since it was learned, of course it was marked by others.

People often ask, if the Industrial Revolution first occurred in China, would history still be like the Industrial Revolution in Britain first? There are many different answers to this question, and each has its own reasons. In fact, if the Industrial Revolution first occurred in China, history would inevitably be different from the real history.

Every civilization will inevitably have its own imprint. This imprint is everywhere and penetrates into all aspects. If one civilization learns the knowledge of another civilization, it will not be able to get rid of others' imprints without long-term transformation. The same is true for the Industrial Revolution and modern society initiated by the Industrial Revolution. All aspects are marked by European civilization. China's learning has not been completed yet, so how can we talk about eliminating others' imprints?

If the industrial revolution occurred in China and thus emerged from modern society, it would inevitably be different from reality. It is not that a certain place is different, but that almost no place will be the same in all aspects. There are cars, trains, ships, airplanes, telephones and TVs, and various things in modern society. However, in terms of use, there will be major changes from the method to the connotation.

The same is true for education. If modern education started from China, there would be compulsory education to cultivate talents for industry, but the learning forms, upgrade methods, and talent selection and use will have a distinct Chinese color.

What is Chinese color? Historically, the industrial revolution did not occur from China, so many questions have no answers. Even Wang Xiaolie was the first to popularize education in this era and was still influenced by later generations, and it was not a pure Chinese color.

After returning to live everywhere, Chen and Yi left. Wang Xiaoli sat in the study and looked at the scenery outside the window in a fascinating way.

When spring comes to the world, everything has a new beginning. After winning the battle in Shanzhou, Wang Xiaolien proved himself. Not only did he improve his status in the eyes of others, but he also gave himself confidence.

The territory that Wang Xiaoli occupied is actually very large. Not only that, there is still a large area of ​​free land around, and there are no officials waiting to occupy it. The most important thing now is not to occupy the territory, but to stabilize the territory that has already occupied. As long as it is stable, it is victory.

The purpose of dividing unmanned areas and guerrilla areas is to stabilize your territory. In the next few years, a large number of various figures will occupy the place. As long as there are people, they can occupy a large area of ​​land. This is not a difficult thing, but the difficulty is to keep the place in the next few years.

Looking at the spring scenery outside the window, Wang Xiaoli stood up and paced slowly.

If you have a good estimate, the pseudo-Qi in history should be established. If the pseudo-Qi states, you will inevitably go south to compete for land, and you will be the target of the pseudo-Qi. This is a good opponent. It is not as difficult as the Jin soldiers, and it will not be too weak, and it will be just right to train the team. After the pressure from the Jin Dynasty was reduced, the Song Dynasty would also begin to deal with the chaos in the south. The next three or four years will be a great era.

Sitting back to the table, Wang Xiaoli wrote a letter asking Wang Ruohai to come quickly to Biyang. He wanted to occupy Caizhou quickly without preparing for the next big era. He formed a wide range of guerrilla areas and a solid city, and he occupied a large plain to the east.

Along the Ru River, Ruzhou, Xiangcheng, Yancheng and Caizhou formed a line of defense. Within the defense line, it is the core area of ​​Wang Xiaoli. Outside the defense line is the guerrilla area. With elite generals, they are active in areas outside the Ru River, making it impossible for the enemy to stay for a long time.

After saving Shanzhou and establishing a guerrilla zone, Wang Xiaoli took the initiative and could start his own construction.
