Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 229 A great achievement comparable to that of saints!

When it comes to Pinyin, which seems inconspicuous in daily life, it is really amazing.

Just like the nine-year compulsory education, you don’t notice much about these things when you are learning them, but when you look back after learning them, you will find that they are more and more awesome, and they are a super killer weapon that has a lasting effect the more you look at them!
This is especially true for the city of Shijiu, where the illiteracy rate is extremely high, once reaching 80%.

It's a perfect fit!

But such a good thing has not been promoted yet.

Cai Quanwu and Xu Huizhen are just two idiots.

Even Chen Xueru, an elite who had received higher education and was able to become friends and partners with the Russians, showed a look of confusion after hearing the pinyin.

This really left Ximen Lang puzzled.

"Pinyin, such a cool thing, you don't even know it?"

"Look at what you're saying. Although we're not educated people, we do know a little about Zhuyin and Pinyin, which were once trendsetting."

"Then why don't you use it?"

"Of course it's because it's inconvenient to use."

As she spoke, the knowledgeable Chen Xueru started directly from the late Qing Dynasty, starting from "A Clear Beginner's Guide" compiled by Lu Gangzhang in the late Qing Dynasty, and talked about "Mandarin Harmonic Alphabet" created by Wang Zhao in the late Qing Dynasty.

We also talked about the "Mandarin Harmonic Alphabet" in the late Qing Dynasty and the "Mandarin Romanization Phonetic Alphabet" created by linguists Li Jinxi and Zhao Yuanren during the Republic of China period.

The ignorant Ximen Lang was left with a head full of questions after hearing this.

Chen Xueru continued.

"Even for someone like me who has a basic understanding of Zhuyin and Pinyin, I find them incredibly cumbersome. They're not practical, and the pronunciation isn't very accurate."

"I'm like this too. How can you expect those guys who have no basic knowledge to learn these things? You think too highly of them."

Xu Huizhen also explained because she was afraid that Ximen Lang would think that she was running the literacy class just to show off and that her attitude was not correct.

"Xueru's words are true. In order to help Master Niu and his classmates master more Chinese characters better and faster, we have tried every possible method."

"But what's the result? The teachers' teaching is awkward, and the students have a hard time learning. It's far less effective than familiar idioms and rhymes."

"It can even have the opposite effect. I put in so much effort to finally learn an idiom, complete with Zhuyin and Pinyin, and then, in a matter of moments, I forget it all. It's better not to learn it at all."

"So now we use common idioms, as well as common sayings and proverbs in daily life, so that they can learn them step by step."

"After all, you're familiar with it. Write it more, read it more, and recite it more. If you follow the flow, you might remember it."

"Of course, the efficiency is definitely a bit low, but it's better than not being able to remember anything at all."

After hearing what these two fake sisters said, Ximen Lang finally came to his senses.

It turns out they were talking about completely different things.

"That's not surprising, that's not surprising."

It is realized that Pinyin, which is now known to everyone in the future, has not yet been invented.

Ximen Lang immediately returned to the car on the pretext of getting something, took out his cell phone and searched for something.

After learning that modern Pinyin was only just beginning to be explored in 55, and that it took three years until 58, when it was finally successfully developed under the leadership of the higher authorities and gradually spread, Ximen Lang finally understood where the problem lay.

"No wonder it looks so awkward, it turns out that Chinese Pinyin hasn't been figured out yet!"

Just as he was about to get off the bus, he handed Hanyu Pinyin to Xu Huizhen, Chen Xueru, and Cai Quanwu, asking them to try it out. He wanted to see if this system, which had already achieved significant success in later generations and played an important role in many fields, was truly significant in improving the quality of the entire nation, promoting social progress, and promoting cultural exchange, worked.
"Hey~ bro, why are you here? This is such a coincidence."

Yes, seeing that Ximen Lang was about to take out a killer weapon that would bring about major changes in the education industry in the world of Sijiu City and make his political achievements explosive, Li Huaide, who had been waiting for this day and came over at the first sight, appeared beside Ximen Lang.

Ximen Lang just happened to need someone with some background, great power and trustworthiness to report this matter and then promote it quickly.

One sentence.
"Brother, you came just in time, just in time. Look at how awesome the Chinese Pinyin I got is!"

After a brief chat, he took Li Huaide straight to the tavern.

As he spoke, he explained to the group the 21 initial consonants, 37 finals, 16 whole syllables, and four tones of Chinese Pinyin.

Because everyone present had a certain level of literary literacy, after simply following Professor Ximen Lang's knowledge and exploring it, without exception, everyone immediately discovered the great value of Pinyin!
How big is it?
It was so big that Li Huaide and even his father-in-law behind him couldn't catch it!

It is so big that once it is promoted, it is almost a foregone conclusion and will definitely go down in history and be recorded in the annals of history forever!

In ancient times, this achievement alone would have been enough to elevate one to the highest rank, earning them a place in the Temple of Literature! They could even become a scholar, standing shoulder to shoulder with the ancient sages, and being revered as a teacher by all scholars!

This is really amazing!
It is also because Pinyin is so powerful and its significance is so great.

Li Huaide immediately became conflicted.

Even if he wants to keep it all for himself, he doesn't have the ability to do so.

Can be shared with others
He had waited so long for this opportunity, but he was reluctant to give it up. He was unwilling to just follow others, eat leftovers, and drink watery soup.

He is like this, not to mention Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru, two plastic sisters with unique vision and extremely shrewdness.

Even his breathing became a little faster, and his gaze towards Ximen Lang immediately became hot.

However, when they saw Li Huaide, who was able to be on good terms with Ximen Lang and seemed easy-going and easy to talk to, but was actually difficult to deal with and talk to, and who was ruthless and ruthless, they found that he was the most difficult person to deal with.

It was visibly clear to the naked eye that the eyes of the plastic sisters became visibly clearer.

After all, even a big shot like Li Huaide has to worry about it, so what about them?
Who do they think they are?
So, the moment they saw Li Huaide, the two sisters' heads immediately became clear.

Just focus on Chinese Pinyin itself and learn silently without paying any attention to other things.

As for Li Huaide, after hesitating for a long time, he finally did not dare to take all the credit for this amazing political achievement.

Instead, he accepted his fate of only being worthy of drinking water and wore pants that fit his butt.

Even started to sigh.
"That's it! I can't even kneel down like that!"

He immediately patted his chest and assured Ximen Lang.

"Don't worry, bro. I'll report this to my superiors, to Chief Luo, right away! We'll make sure this is implemented as soon as possible and promote Pinyin!"

　I slept until noon, it's a bit late, sorry.
