Chapter 121 Does Old Li's Family Still Literate?

The soldiers looked at the LED lights with joy at seeing treasures and curiosity about new things on their faces. How could there be such bright lights in this world!No, this is not a lamp, it is obviously a little sun!
At this moment, Li Chaomeng came in from the outside and saw the lit LED lights. He pointed his hands at the dazzling light and said, "Battle Commander, this is the electric light you mentioned."

"Yes."

Li Chaosheng was talking, and after hearing this, Li Chaomeng said with blurred eyes: "It's really too bright, ten times brighter than an oil lamp, and a hundred times brighter."

Li Chaolong said from the side at this time: "Battle Commander, do you all use this kind of light in the fairy world?"

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng thought for a while and said, "That's true, but it looks much better than this one. We have chandeliers, ceiling lights, dimming lights, neon lights, and so on, and ours is the most basic LED light. "

"Love to cuddle?"

Li Chaomeng blinked his eyes and said, after hearing this, Li Chaosheng said: "L, pay attention to flattening your tongue, it's not love hugging, it's L~LED."

"Love to hug, love to hug the ground!"

Mengzi spoke seriously, but the base of his tongue was too hard, and Li Chaosheng didn't want to correct it at all, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it, if you love cuddling, you can cuddle."

After saying this, Li Chaosheng looked at the soldiers and said: "Okay, don't look at me stupidly, come here and I will teach you to turn on the lights."

As Li Chaosheng said, he pointed to the switch on the wall and said, "This thing is called a switch. It can be turned on, and it can be turned off. The function of the switch is to control the light on the roof."

"Meng Zi."

"arrive."

Li Chaomeng responded.

"come over."

As Li Chaosheng said, he pointed to the switch on the wall and said, "Did you see it? The light is on now, go and press the switch."

"Yes."

Mengzi came to the switch, stretched out his fingers like a rolling pin and touched the switch, and the light on the roof went out with a snap.

"My God, it's really gone."

As soon as the lights went out, there was an exclamation from the crowd. Li Chaosheng looked at it and said nothing, and then said to Mengzi: "Press it again, it will turn on."

After hearing this, Mengzi pressed it again, and with a snap, the switch was turned on, and then the light turned on, and the whole room was illuminated again.

Everyone's eyes widened. The light was too bright, and the switch was so powerful that it could turn the light on and off. At this moment, the corners of Meng Zi's mouth cracked: "Hahaha... I can control the light, hahaha. "

Mengzi said, Li Chaosheng said to Li Chaolong: "The first company commander will come over and try it, and then teach all the soldiers how to turn on and off the lights. In the future, there will be a discipline in the barracks, that is, turn off the lights when people leave, that is, after everyone leaves the dormitory, they must turn off the lights." Lantern, this should be included in the class assessment and counted as the weekly class evaluation activities."

"Yes."

Li Chaolong came over and tried how to turn on and off the lights, and then asked everyone to come up and try how to control the lights. All the soldiers had a great time playing. There is no human who is not interested in electronic equipment, even if this electronic equipment is the lowest. Electric lights, as if they also have infinite magic power, attract big guys.

The lights were turned on and off all night, until at nine o'clock in the evening when the lights were blown out, Li Chaosheng pulled the switch.

The LED lights in the barracks finally stopped flashing, and at the same time, there were no more cheers and excited shouts.

"It's bright, it's bright, I'm stupid, it's bright again."

……

After a night of nothing, Li Chaosheng returned to the real world the next day. Li Chaosheng had a big job today. He needed to see an associate professor of Ming History at the university, and Manager Cao contacted Li Chaosheng on his behalf.

In the university town, Li Chaosheng met this associate professor, a slightly bald middle-aged man. The man shook hands with Li Chaosheng very politely when he saw Li Chaosheng, and then the two chatted with each other.

"Mr. Li, are you looking for me this time?"

After the chat, the middle-aged man asked a question he cared about. After hearing this, Li Chaosheng looked at the professor and said, "Oh, Mr. Professor, I need you to help me compile a textbook. The content of the textbook is very simple. It is to compile some short stories before the end of the Ming Dynasty into a book and write them in ancient Ming Dynasty, such as translating Jingzhong Yuefei, Guan Yu's defeat in Maicheng, including the shame of Jingkang..."

The professor frowned after hearing Li Chaosheng's words: "Mr. Li, I feel that you are insulting me. You can just find a graduate student from the Department of Ancient Chinese to complete your request. Why bother with me? I think you are wasting my time." .”

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng said quickly: "No, professor, I think that your writing of this kind of thing must be closer to the ancient Ming Dynasty."

At this moment, the professor said with a dark face: "I'm sorry, I don't think we need to talk any further. You asked me to compile children's texts, and I won't do it."

"That's really a pity. I had prepared 3 yuan for the manuscript fee."

Li Chaosheng sighed at this moment, then stood up and said, "The professor will talk when he has time."

After hearing this, the professor suddenly changed his face and said, "Mr. Li, wait a minute."

"Professor, is there anything else?"

Li Chaosheng looked at the professor, and the professor said, "I suddenly felt that this matter is quite meaningful, and I can accept it."

"Profess your great talent, isn't writing children's books somewhat overkill?"

Li Chaosheng looked at the professor, and the professor said at this time: "What are the big talents and small talents? Educating people for a hundred years, you can't be careless about educating people. Don't worry, I will do this job for you. Do you have any requirements for this book?" ?”

"I have two requirements for this book. The first story should be simple, and the second should be positive energy, emphasizing loyalty, filial piety, and brotherhood. It is best to achieve the effect of subtle brainwashing."

Li Chaosheng said, after hearing this, the professor said: "No problem, I have studied psychology for two years, and I promise to complete the task, and the manuscript will be delivered in about a week."

"Success, then I will teach you fortunately."

As Li Chaosheng said, he paid a deposit of [-] yuan, and then the professor told Li Chaosheng his thoughts on this book. This book is an ancient version of the story, which will be written according to history. For example, the ancient mythology tells about Pangu creating the world, Nuwa creating man, Fuxi playing gossip, Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Dayu controlling the water, Zhou defeating Shangtang, Zhou Tianzi playing with the princes, and then there are five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period, Seven Heroes in the Warring States Period, Jing Ke assassinated Qin, and Qin unified The six kingdoms, the conflict between Chu and Han,...

It can be said that the 5000-year summary of China is systematically sorted out, and it is simplified into a children's book. There will be color illustrations.

This will be an important textbook for Li Chaosheng, and it can also be regarded as a history class. After thinking about it, Li Chaosheng plans to teach everyone three basic courses: history, mathematics, and Chinese.

If you don't read history, you don't know Chinese heritage, but Chinese and mathematics are the logical basis of a person. Chinese teaches expression, and mathematics teaches basic arithmetic, so that at least everyone can understand addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. A Mr. Accountant.

Moreover, this knowledge is more needed in the army. After thinking about it, Li Chaosheng will prepare for the next training of talents.

The professor finished talking here, and then contacted the illustration company. Li Chaosheng asked Manager Cao about the registration of the company. Manager Cao said that everything went well. He will ask Li Chaosheng to bring his ID card and a deposit of 100 million to the administrative service hall tomorrow. Just sign it.

Li Chaosheng asked about the situation of the stainless steel spear again, and said that he would be there the day after tomorrow.

After finishing all these, Li Chaosheng returned to the grain depot, and at this time he answered a phone call from the quilt factory. This time, Li Chaosheng ordered one hundred military uniforms and five hundred sets of quilts, and now they are ready for delivery. coming.

Li Chaosheng brought these clothes back to the end of the Ming Dynasty. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Chaosheng called all the militiamen and gave them the same bedding and clothes as the veterans. At the same time, some clothes of the veterans were seriously damaged in the battle. All of them were replaced. new.

When they put on the new military uniforms, these former militiamen have all become soldiers of the first company of the security army. They are full of energy and work harder in training.

At this time, Li Chaosheng went to the village to find Li Jinli to discuss the establishment of a private school.

Li Chaosheng came to Li Jinli's house, Li Jinli's daughter-in-law and Li Chaosheng's aunt got better. When she saw Li Chaosheng, she smiled and left immediately: "You talk, I'll wash two fruits for you to eat."

The auntie went to work, at this time Li Chaosheng looked at Li Jin who was twisting the grass rope and said: "Uncle, how is it, the gentleman I asked you to hire last time?"

Li Jinli frowned and said, "I don't want to come."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng said: "Well, you don't want to come? Doesn't he have friendship with you, uncle?"

After hearing this, Li Jinli continued on the rope and said: "What is the value of friendship these years? He said that he wanted to benefit his family, and he refused to leave his hometown to come to our Tanggou Town. He said that we wanted to learn, so he brought Shu Xiu Learn from them."

"Hey, it's shameless."

Li Chao was very angry. At this time, Li Jinli said with a bitter face: "Scholars are very proud these days, but don't worry Chaosheng. I support your idea of ​​building a private school. In addition, I also found someone, but the level is not good. No, I didn't even pass the exam as a child student, the only advantage is that he is a member of our clan, and he is willing to do something for the clan."

"Oh, there are still people in our clan who can read?"

Li Chaosheng was a little surprised. At this time, Li Jinli said: "Yes, there is. His name is Li Chaowen, the second son of your second uncle (old man of the second clan). He studied in a private school for three years. Later, the family was too poor and couldn't afford it. He went to In the city, I found a job writing letters for others, barely making ends meet. I don’t know that our clan is developing well these days, so your second uncle called me back. He came to see me two days ago, hoping to be sent to the military camp to serve as a soldier, but you After all the soldiers are recruited, I have nothing to say to you."

"Now that old scholar insists on his status and refuses to come to Tanggou Town to teach us. I just want to read Korean. If it doesn't work, let him teach us first."

Li Jinli said, Li Chaosheng nodded and said: "It's okay, I will meet him some time."

After hearing this, Li Jin said: "Why do you have time, you are so busy, let's do it today, at home, go and call the second child, let Chaowen come and meet Chaosheng."

"Hey."

After hearing this, the eldest aunt agreed, and after a while, footsteps were heard in the courtyard. When the door opened, the elders of the second clan came in. Li Chaosheng got up and said, "Second uncle."

The old man of the second clan said with a smile on his face: "Okay, let's do it, my family, don't do this, by the way, Chaowen has seen your brother Chaosheng."

Hearing this, Li Chaosheng glanced at Li Chaowen. He saw that Li Chaowen was about 1.7 meters five tall, very thin and fair, and was wearing a worn-out robe.

"I've seen Brother Chaosheng."

Li Chaowen bowed his hands to Li Chaosheng, Li Chaosheng looked at the second uncle and asked, "Who is older?"

The second uncle heard this and said, "Chaowen is 24 this year."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng cupped his hands and said, "Cousin Chaowen."

After the two met, Li Chaosheng chatted with Li Chaowen, and found that Li Chaowen spoke elegantly and had a bookish air about him, and he didn't look like he had only been in a private school for three years.

So Li Chaosheng chatted with Li Chaowen in detail. It turned out that Li Chaowen was weak since he was a child. The second uncle loved his second son so much that he let him study. He also liked studying very much, almost to the point of forgetting to eat and sleep.

So he knew a lot of characters in a very short period of time. In three years, he was almost familiar with the Three-Character Classic, Hundred Surnames, Thousand-Character Classics, and other enlightenment reading materials, even the Analects of the Mean in college. It is very likely that the Tongsheng will pass the exam.

It's a pity that the Li family is too poor. After three years of hard work, the second uncle finally couldn't afford Shu Xiu, who had thirty catties of millet a year. He had no choice but to let Li Chaowen return to his hometown to farm. When I arrived in the city, I mixed with the crowd, did odd jobs, and usually made a living by writing letters for others.

But this letter writing also has a chain of contempt, that is, scholars despise Tong Sheng, Tong Sheng has no fame in the competition, and Li Chaowen is the bottom of the letter writing industry, without fame.

A scholar needs three pennies for a letter, a Tongsheng needs two pennies, and he can only ask for one penny.

This is like talking about cross talk, talking about learning to sing, missing a few homework, and not getting the whole money.

But God can't starve to death blind sparrows. Li Chaowen has been able to barely survive in the city these years. The main reason why he didn't starve to death is that Li Chaowen's handwriting is beautiful. With this handwriting, Li Chaowen can write couplets for some people. Three melons and two dates barely survive.

But that was a life of eating a bowl of porridge a day and eating dry food once every two or three days. In the end, he was so hungry that he couldn't help it. He also joined the gang of beggars and almost starved to death. What a miserable life.

However, he has never given up on reading these years. Sometimes he is begging for food, or he occasionally sees a few bad books somewhere. He picks them up and reads them. After a long time, the fragmented memories gradually form, and he has his own cultural insights. This is not the kind of insight of stereotyped essays, but the kind of understanding after reading the whole book.

But he is still the same Li Chaowen who failed the Tongsheng exam, because he has no fame, but having no fame does not mean that he is uneducated. Many people may not have studied much, but they may really read more books than ordinary scholars. After all, scholars only read four books. Five classics, and Li Chaowen only reads when there are characters, so the range of books he has read in these years is very wide, and his knowledge is very complicated.
