Chapter 1154 Learning at that time

Xu Jing was caught off guard and was beaten by Wang Can.

Chang'an Yinfang was founded by Mrs. Tang, and now it is hosted by Songdu and Dong Wan. Although Songdu and Dong Wan are all noble people, their abilities are obviously not as good as Mrs. Tang.

In the past two years, with the establishment of Nanyang Yinfang, the highlight of Chang'an Yinfang has long passed. Not only has the influence of published articles far less than before, but their business conditions have plummeted, and their review of the sacrificial treatment is also a bit tight.

The monthly salary can be paid on time, and the year-end rewards are limited, which is better than nothing.

As soon as they entered the twelfth lunar month, they began to consider this issue. Especially when they knew the situation of Nanyang Yinfang from different channels, they knew that the year-end rewards of Nanyang Yinfang may be very large this year, so they couldn't sit still.

At this moment, Lai Min received an invitation from Pan Jun to come to Nanyang to attend the book recommendation party. The few of them gave their wine to visit Nanyang Seal House on the excuse of visiting their relatives and visiting Nanyang Seal House and came together.

Confucians emphasize that if they are proficient, they will help the world, and if they are poor, they will be safe. They are all knowledgeable scholars. They have no ability to make a living and cannot be able to be poor and behave well. They travel thousands of miles to Nanyang to beg for food, which is somewhat embarrassing.

He really wanted to scold him, but when he thought about Wang Can's identity and the person who reminded Wang Can just now on the second floor, he swallowed the words he had poured into his mouth.

Although he is not sure who is on the second floor, no one who can influence Wang Can can afford to offend him.

When Xu Jing was confused, Lai Min stood up and said unhappily: "The king of barbarians dares to be kings? Ling Shi is exaggerating. Whether the stars are the sun is still undecided, since even Zhou Zhongzhi said that there is no conclusion, it cannot be regarded as evidence of the existence of Tao. Moreover, when the sage compiled the Five Classics, the civilized land did not exceed the pass in the west, the north did not go out of the frontier, and the south was only ridge. Now the territory of the Han Dynasty has increased more than a few times, and the Five Classics are all the same. From this, it is inferred that when the emperor pacified the Western Regions and the world was unified, the Five Classics were still the Five Classics, and there would be no change."

Liu Xie could hear it clearly upstairs, but he couldn't remember who the voice was, and pondered for a moment.

Xun Wenqian is quite confident. "It looks like Lai Min. Why did they all run to Wancheng?"

"What else can I do? Visit my relatives." Xun Yu said angrily and glared at Xun Wenqian quietly.

Xun Wenqian also reacted, smiled secretly, and did not continue talking.

Lai Min is from Nanyang, Xu Jing is from Runan, and the other Meng Guang is from Henan. It is reasonable to say that he is visiting relatives and passing through Wancheng. But she knew in her heart that this was just to save face for them. The truth is probably what Wang Can just said. Chang'an Yinfang is not in business, so these people want to come to Nanyang Yinfang to see the opportunity.

Thinking of the fact that they thought they were meritorious ministers who were prosperous in Yinfang in Chang'an, she couldn't help but feel a little disdainful when she didn't take her and Mrs. Tang's words to the point of feeling relieved.

What a great scholar, who gave you a chance, is useless.

She then thought of the three kings of the regime that Xun Yu was thinking about. Even if the emperor was willing to delegate power and rule with his utmost responsibilities, could the three kings really handle political affairs well and ensure peace and stability in the country?

This is really a question worth discussing.

Facts have proved that ministers, mainly Confucian scholars, are at least incapable of military management and are difficult to assume the functions of the Taiwei.

At this time, Wang Can's answer came downstairs.

"Let me support the emperor's expedition?"

Lai Min blurted out without thinking. "Naturally, there are no two days in heaven, and no two kings in scholars. Even in barbarian land, no one should be allowed to transgress. It should be conquered."

Wang Can smiled slightly and ignored Lai Min's deliberate counterattack.

For him, the point is no longer whether the saying "There is no two days, and there is no two kings" is the truth. Lai Min expressed his support for the emperor's Western Expedition in public, which is even more meaningful.

Lai Min was not only a famous scholar and great scholar in Nanyang, but also a famous Guangwu official, Lai She, who had a great influence in Nanyang.

"Will you think that just a book like "The Five Classics Chapters and Sentences" can make barbarians surrender?"

"Is Lingshi meant that only works that could make the barbarians in the Western Regions be the champion?" Lai Min came prepared and did not answer the questions, which caused a group of people to laugh with knowledge.

By this standard, there is no article here that can be rated as a champion.

In comparison, the "Five Classics Chapters and Sentences" are more qualified.

Wang Can was not panicked and talked freely. "The Master said: If people who are far away are not convinced, then they will cultivate their morality. There is no need to say much about the merits of education. However, the merits of education are sometimes not satisfactory. Therefore, even though the weapons are fierce, the saints cannot use them. Since this is the case, they can no longer stick to their morality and limit themselves to the Five Classics."

He paused and said, "What's more, the Five Classics Chapters and Sentences and Sentences" are not the Five Classics, but just the hair of the Five Classics?"

Lai Min asked: "Which Shi thinks, which article will help the current affairs?"

Wang Can turned around and walked to the whiteboard that recorded the title of the book, and clicked on the "Star Positioning Technique" in the lower left. "I think this book should be the champion. Please listen to it for me."

When Liu Xie heard the name of "Star Positioning Technique", he nodded secretly.

The host Wang Can is still a little knowledgeable and knows what the most urgently needed knowledge is at present.

"Star Positioning Technique" is written by Huang Yi and Xu Yue. The theme is the refinement of the Star Positioning Technique and some mathematical discussions. Although this book does not have much content, it has both theory, practice, and rigorous reasoning. It elevates the originally relatively rough simple star positioning technique to a considerable level, which has practical value.

Shangfang is developing an instrument designed based on the theoretical design of this book, named it the Star-Ranging Meter. From the perspective of principle and function, it is very similar to the sextant in later generations. With this instrument, it will be much more convenient in the future whether it is navigation or marching.

In addition, this star pivoting meter can also be used for astronomical observations and is also helpful for a better understanding of the world.

From these perspectives, the booklet "Star Positioning Technique" has great significance, far exceeding the large-scale works of "Five Classics Chapters and Sentences". However, this kind of article is more practical, the mathematics required is too profound, and the instruments are not as fun as telescopes, and they cannot attract the attention of Confucian scholars. The number of copies is only a few hundred.

When I was recommending books before, few people knew about this booklet. It was Wang Can who recommended it as the host and was listed on the whiteboard.

Wang Can was well prepared and came up with the significance of "Star Positioning Technique".

As expected, the potential widespread application of "Star Positioning Technique" has attracted the attention of many people. More people asked questions, and some of them were even very professional, and even Wang Can could not explain it. Fortunately, Xu Yue was also present, so he stood up immediately and answered everyone's questions on behalf of Wang Can.

Even Pan Jun himself temporarily put the "Five Classics Chapters and Sentences" aside and listened carefully to Xu He's explanation of the principles and practical applications of "Star Positioning Technique".

As Wang Can said, although he stood out for Song Zhong today and recommended the "Five Classics Chapters and Sentences" as the champion, his own ambition was not to be a great scholar, and he spent his whole life studying the classics. He wanted to make achievements and do something big, and the "Star Positioning Art" was the most interested in articles that could be both military, business, and have a considerable academic content.
