Fengxian Jiangshan

"Mr. Kuang, you are just in time. I am preparing to dismantle the Machinery Bureau and build a Fengtian Armory. You helped find talents. I am really grateful!"

"It's not easy to build an arsenal!" Kuang Rongguang sighed: "Everyone said that a republic is good, but we have established a republic for more than four years. As a result, heavy industry has not developed at all. The arsenal is still the ones established in the former Qing Dynasty. Factory, Sichuan Factory, and Han Factory, the machine technology has not improved much, and the output is not even a fraction of that of foreigners, which is really chilling."

"Mr. Kuang, you are right, but the more this is the case, the more we have to catch up, otherwise we will be farther behind. I have prepared sufficient funds to start with maintenance a little bit, and then seize the opportunity , to purchase equipment from the West, as long as it continues to develop, sooner or later, Fengtian Armory will become a well-known factory in China and even in the whole world!"

"Hehe, Zhuoyan, I just appreciate your drive. When we came back from the United States, most of us were like this. As a result, we wasted most of our lives and didn't achieve anything. I'm really ashamed!"

Kuang Rongguang laughed at himself and said, "The two people I recommend to you are Chen Qiming. His father, Chen Ronggui, and I are fellow villagers, and they are both classmates studying in the United States. This kid also went to the United States to study, majoring in chemical engineering. In addition One is Xiong Mengyuan, a distant relative of mine. He was born in Nanyang and later went to study in the UK. These two children have lived in the West for a long time, and I am afraid they are not used to China. If there is anything wrong, please feel sorry for me. One or two."

In fact, these two people are in their early twenties, much older than Zhang Tinglan, but Kuang Rongguang said this very naturally.Zhang Tinglan's methods made him no longer able to regard this person as a junior.

"Mr. Kuang, I only have one requirement, and that is to have real talents and practical learning. If you can show real skills, you will naturally be able to be reused. If you can't show them, it's useless to say anything!"

"Well, they will be able to arrive at Fengtian in three to five days, and I will bring them to visit then!"

After sending Kuang Rongguang away, Zhang Tinglan continued to urge the new army to carry out training. These days, under the threat of sticks, the soldiers gradually moved in order.Physical fitness has also been greatly improved. The most important thing is that these people have gradually adapted to the discipline of the barracks, and there are rules for walking, sitting and lying.

Soldiers take obedience as their bounden duty. This sentence is not an empty slogan, but should be reflected in every detail.Finally, it penetrates deep into the bone marrow.From entering the barracks, we have been trained bit by bit.Watching the recruits gradually transform.Zhang Tinglan is also very pleased, these boys are the capital for her to gain a foothold in Fengjun, they are her courage and her face!

The new army trains during the day, and spends two hours studying at night, of which half an hour is studying the disciplinary regulations of the barracks.The other one and a half hours is mainly for literacy and learning some simple drawing operations.

In the past, the literacy in private schools was that the teacher read a sentence, and the students followed it, which was not efficient.After Zhang Tinglan took over.First of all, blackboards and chalks were promoted. Combining character recognition and writing, watching with eyes, reading with mouth, thinking in heart, the speed gradually increased.

In addition, Zhang Tinglan also tried to promote pinyin, which is also a good way to speed up literacy.Chinese is a highly developed language and has huge advantages over alphabetic characters. The most obvious point is that Chinese characters are two-dimensional codes on paper, while letters are only one-dimensional.

In this way, the information conveyed by Chinese characters is more and richer, so Chinese vocabulary has the characteristics of introversion. For example, a train is a new thing. We first know that it is a car for transporting things, and then this car emits smoke. Gudong, everything that is logical is called a train.

The same is true for computers, using electricity, being able to calculate, and combining them is a computer.Instead of giving every new thing a new name like Westerners, even if there is a root, the complicated changes will also cause great trouble. Many professional names, except for people in this discipline, are not known at all. , and Chinese does not have this problem. As long as you can read and think about it a little, you can guess a ** is close to ten.

Therefore, when Zhang Tinglan taught Chinese characters, he first promoted Pinyin.Pinyin is not a rare thing. As early as the Ming Dynasty, Western scholars came to China and first used letters to phoneticize Chinese characters. After the end of Qing Dynasty, many scholars pointed out that Chinese characters were complicated and difficult to recognize, which was an important factor restricting Chinese learning. Factors, so a large number of phonetic schemes began to appear.

However, most of them are not mature and can only be circulated in a small area. Zhang Tinglan directly used the more mature pinyin scheme of later generations, and specially made a literacy wall chart.The combination of pictures, text, and pinyin may seem like a child's play in later generations, but now, it is still a very novel teaching tool and very interesting.

Every barracks hangs a few pictures. Many soldiers will study carefully around the wall charts as long as they are free. , the Chinese will be able to explode a strong learning ability.

These soldiers are like this. After more than a month of study, they can basically know more than [-] characters with a little basic knowledge, and others can also reach [-]-[-] characters.Zhang Tinglan simply posted the multiplication formulas in the barracks, and then subscribed to some newspapers and magazines.

Under his torment, the second regiment almost became a school. The recruits of the first regiment didn't understand it at first, and often made fun of the second regiment, saying that they were not doing their business.As a result, after a period of time, a group of soldiers gradually realized a trace of mystery.

Those soldiers of the Second Regiment, who were illiterate like me, were already able to read books and newspapers.When training some new subjects, they understand faster than themselves. After getting the weapon, they can understand the operation manual, understand various parameters, and get started faster.

In a short period of time, there was a large gap in the quality of the soldiers, so that Sun Anhu, the regiment leader, had to go to Zhang Tinglan's side to learn from Zhang Tinglan, borrowed a few soldiers with the best learning effect, and swept away A large collection of wall charts.

Yang Yuting was also in charge of educating the soldiers, but when he saw Zhang Tinglan's success, he simply only taught things like tactical movements, and basically pushed all of them to Zhang Tinglan.

The soldiers were training on the school field that day, and the weather in October had gradually turned cold.The real autumn wind blows on the body, cool and comfortable.On the school grounds, one could only feel the excitement of midsummer. The soldiers were sweating profusely, running desperately. After the physical training was over, they had to go to target training.

The head of the group has promised that whoever has the best grades will get a delicate dagger.Perhaps due to the nature of men, there is no such thing as a dislike of swords, and everyone puts all their efforts into it.

At this time, Kuang Rongguang brought two young people to the outside of the South Day Camp.These two people are about 24 or [-] years old, and one of them is taller and very stout. He is Xiong Mengyuan.The other is of medium build and looks very thin.The bookish look on his face was none other than Chen Qiming.

"Uncle. I have long heard that the three eastern provinces are extremely cold in winter. You can freeze your ears off. I wonder why you are willing to go outside the customs to suffer. Now, the situation is different. Just look at the South Camp. It's so different from other places!"

Xiong Mengyuan is obviously very talkative, telling his feelings to Kuang Rongguang, actually after Fengtian.He felt a little different.Compared with other regions, Fengtian is more orderly and busier, with construction sites everywhere.There are construction teams everywhere.

The area around the railway station is the North Market. Although it has not been completed yet, the road is wide and there are many shops on both sides. There are street lights, green trees, and even special garbage bins.

Just looking at this pattern, it even surpassed the Shiliyangchang in Shanghai. Compared with western cities, the gap is not very big.Seeing what they knew, they also gradually understood why Kuang Rongguang was willing to go outside the customs. Fengtian's potential is indeed unlimited.

After arriving at the South Day Camp, the feeling was even more profound. The entire military camp was well-organized and clean, almost spotless.A special cordon was set up at the gate of the camp, and there were soldiers patrolling and standing guard. These soldiers were all in neat uniforms and looked solemn.

Every movement is neat and standardized, which is completely different from the army in other parts of China. Kuang Rongguang also introduced that these were all created by Zhang Tinglan, and both Xiong Mengyuan and Chen Qiming had a strong interest.

After the guards notified, Kuang Rongguang took them into the barracks. At this time, Zhang Tinglan still had a little training task to complete, so he simply let others take Kuang Rongguang to visit the barracks first.

Kuang Rongguang was also very interested. He followed Zhang Tinglan from Beijing to Fengtian because he had confidence in this young man to accomplish great things.Now that we have arrived at Zhang Tinglan's territory, it is a good time to see what this young man's true level is.

As soon as he walked into a row of barracks, Xiong Mengyuan's mouth grew wide and he showed an incredulous expression. He saw a row of beds, all covered with neat white sheets, and the quilts were folded as if cut with a knife and axe. There were neat pieces of tofu.All kinds of supplies are placed in fixed positions.

There are more than thirty beds in the barracks this time, and each position is almost exactly the same. The only difference is the number plate on it. There is no doubt that to achieve such uniformity, the army chief must be a capable person.Chen Qiming's eyes also fell on the various literacy wall charts hanging on the surrounding walls, and even Kuang Rongguang became interested.

Especially after seeing the pinyin, although Kuang Rongguang didn't fully understand it, he also saw the clues, and said with great emotion: "Zhang Zhuoyan, he is young and has amazing knowledge. I am afraid he made these things. You guys You two still have a lot to learn, don’t think that studying in the West will make you arrogant and look down on other people.”

While talking, Zhang Tinglan also rushed over, he smiled and said to Kuang Rongguang: "Mr. Kuang, these two are the talents you recommended!"

"Zhuoyan, this big guy is Xiong Mengyuan, this is Chen Qiming, they are both my nephews, they all come to you to beg for food!"

"Mr. Kuang, I'm afraid that Brother Xiong and Brother Chen won't like to hear what you said. He is here to earn a living by relying on his real skills."

"Hey, what Uncle Mr. Zhang said is very exciting. We have already prepared to make a career."

"Mr. Zhang, I would like to ask a question." Chen Qiming asked suddenly: "These wall charts were designed by you. They must be used to help soldiers learn to read. Why do soldiers still need to learn culture?"

"It is precisely because of being a soldier that more cultural knowledge is needed. Weapons are getting more and more advanced, and the battlefield situation is becoming more and more complicated. Without enough knowledge, it is impossible to adapt to changes in warfare. And they can't be a lifetime. Now many If you know a few words, you can learn some skills when you leave the military barracks. To be a worker, you need to learn in any line of work. What Chinese people lack most now is knowledge.”

"Humble words and deep thinking!" Kuang Rongguang said with great emotion, and Chen Qiming and Xiong Mengyuan were also thoughtful.After a brief chat, Zhang Tinglan found that the two young men were indeed quite capable, and their professional knowledge was not weak at all, and she was very satisfied, so she took them directly to Fengtian Machine Bureau.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a worker hanging in front of the door. A guy in his 30s with a sloppy face was beating the worker with orders, and kept cursing. Zhang Tinglan frowned immediately. . (To be continued..)
