He pinned his opponent down so that he could not move. When his opponent surrendered, Wang Zhongfu jumped away and laughed: "Okay, okay, we won another round today! Is there anyone among you who can do better? Come out and compete!"

Someone on the side said: "Saburo is not only good at reading and writing, he is also good at gladiatorial combat. Which one of us is his opponent?"

While everyone was noisy, Xu Shijie came over, unfolded a stack of paper in his hand, and said: "This is the account where your salary money is deposited. Everyone came and signed their names. After signing, the money will be sent directly to the bank. You

Go to the bank to get it yourself when you need it.”

Meng Dan couldn't help but shook his head after hearing this: "Du Tou, there are only three hundred coins a month, which is not a big sum of money! Why not send it directly to us, and deposit it in any bank! We came from Guanzhong, and we didn't hear about what bank it was until we arrived in Dengzhou, and which bank can use it?

"

Xu Shijie said: "If you don't know how to use it, you have to learn it! Most of the money in the future will be from banks. What can you do if you don't know how to use it? Three coins a month is not much, but you can do a lot of things. Don't underestimate it. If you save it for a year, you will be able to do it."

There are many coming!"

Wang Zhongfu said with a smile: "You can save less than four coins in a year, what a big amount of money!"

Xu Shijie said: "You don't know, this is for your own good. When you find the money in your hand, you spend it all accidentally. Wait until the end of the year and calculate how much money you have left. It's different in the bank. It's easier to save money.

.”

All civil servants, including officials and soldiers, have their salary paid in the bank. If you want it for personal use, you can take your passbook to get it. Wang Xiaolie did this not to let everyone save money, but to put as much cash into the bank as possible. Now banks

The profit is mainly the interest rate difference between loans and deposits. The more deposits in the bank, the more money the bank has to lend. The bank earns interest and the local government borrows money to do necessary projects.

There is interest in the bank, which is very attractive to the people in this era. But banks have absorbed deposits, and now the channels for loans are limited. They mainly rely on government projects, such as building roads and digging canals.

Everyone did not argue with Xu Shijie, but stepped forward one after another and filled in their names.

Most of these people can't write. After arriving here, we specially organized literate people to help everyone improve their illiteracy. These days, we first ensure that everyone can write their own names. Although most people write their own names crookedly.

Putting the paper away, Xu Shijie said loudly: "I have been here for ten days. You should be familiar with this village. After two days, everything will become formal and it will no longer be as unorganized as it is now. In addition to working every day, I also hired a teacher for you.

Sir, I’m here to teach you how to read. Our army is different from other armies. After several years of service, everyone is required to read."

Someone laughed and said, "It's all a joke. When we are soldiers, we have to go into battle with swords and guns. What's the use of knowing how to read? Can a hairy awl still kill people? If you can't eat a few people, what's the use of learning?"

Xu Shijie said: "After a long time, you will know how useful reading is! If you can't read, you are no different from a blind person. Our place is different from Guanzhong. Even ordinary people have many places to write. Okay,

There is no need to argue about this matter!”

After saying that, he added: "Wang Zhongfu, Cui Liang, Xu Zhe, Li Qing, Meng Chao, you five, stay here, I have something to say!"

After letting everyone disperse, Xu Shijie said to the five Wang Zhongfu who stayed: "Recently, the military academy is recruiting new people. Among us, you few are literate. You will take the exam in five days. If you pass the exam, you will

Enter military academy."

Wang Zhongfu said: "Du Tou, what's the use of entering the military academy?"

Xu Shijie said: "It's very useful! In principle, officers in the military must graduate from the military academy. Those who are above the head level, unless they are specially approved by the military, must be those who graduated from the military academy. You have been admitted to the military academy.

, study there for two years, and you will be a general when you come out!"

Xu Zhe said: "Generals in the army are not promoted only by fighting hard in battle and achieving military merit? How come two years of study in the military academy can compare with military merit?"

Xu Shijie said: "Our army is different. Military merit is military merit, and officer promotion is promotion. They are not the same thing."

Those who have achieved military merit can also enter the military academy, and they have priority. What Wang Xiaolie means is that the military academy is the only source of officers. Even if you can't learn anything after entering the military academy, you still have to go there. There are many benefits to doing so.

What is taught in the military academy is based on the content taught by previous military instructors, as well as the knowledge collected over the years. The most important thing is the summary of the two years of war experience. Although the time is short and the teaching materials are still rough, they are very practical.

The source of new students in military academies is now mainly military personnel, plus recruiting scholars from society. We must use military academies in the shortest possible time, plus literacy in the military, to make the military literate.

From Guanzhong to Dengzhou, these people had no chance to contact the society. After arriving in Dengzhou, they lived in this isolated village. They knew almost nothing about the situation in Dengzhou. Surrounded by Xu Shijie,

He asked miscellaneously about the situation in the military academy.

In the Song Dynasty, there were institutions similar to military academies. They were mainly the Banzhi and the Gongma Institute of the Disciples of the Forbidden Army. However, these institutions were not mainly about teaching, but were around the emperor and were familiar to him. When they were sent out, they were officers.

After all the instructions were given, Xu Shijie said: "There will be no work today. You can go back and rest. In the next five days, you don't have to go out to work like other people. You just need to be well prepared."

Wang Zhongfu said: "What are you preparing for? Dutou, we don't know anything about what is being tested in the military academy. How can this be done?"

Xu Shijie said with a smile: "The military academy is only for recruiting people who are good at writing and writing and are physically strong. It does not test any military knowledge. You just read more books and compete with each other in your free time."

The five people nodded, still vaguely understanding. However, Xu Shijie had not passed the military school examination and could not provide any advice. He was a veteran and knew some words. Before being promoted to the capital, he went to the military school for a month. How much could he learn?

After seeing Xu Shijie off, Wang Zhongfu said: "Since we don't know anything about the exam, what should we prepare for? The weather is sunny today and the breeze is not cold. How about we ask the salesperson to help us buy some wine and meat and come back?"

The rest of the people cheered together. In this village, unless you ask for leave, you are not allowed to leave the village. Even if you leave the village, you must go with five people and are not allowed to go out alone. Rich people like Wang Zhongfu often look after them after they get to know each other.

A member of staff came back to help me buy things.

Gu Yuwai has undergone a big change and his personality has become extremely kind. As long as the recruits in the village have requests, he will almost always satisfy them.

He found Gu Guanwai, gave him money, and asked him to go to the nearby market to buy some wine and meat. Wang Zhongfu was lying alone on a big rock in the open space outside the village, looking at the sun in the sky. The sun was not dazzling. After looking at it for a long time, it seemed that the sun was shining.

It's jumping in the air, like a heart.

Since joining the army, life has been simple but not boring. Every day when I open my eyes, I have already arranged what I have to do for the day. Who is following whom and what to do, everything is clear. Every day's tasks are clear and specific, what

You have to work when you need it, and when you need to rest. Although you are tired every day, your life is simple and happy. These newcomers to the military camp do not think there is anything wrong with being a soldier.
