Chapter 73, Can you not repay the loan?
Chapter 73: Can I borrow money without paying it back?
Suzaku Middle School and Takehito Senior High School are sister schools, and they send delegations to each other every year for exchange and study. During the exchange and study process, students from the two schools will also engage in some small-scale competitions.
For example, there are speech contests, interesting knowledge quizzes, and sports and physical fitness events such as sprints and track and field.
Therefore, everyone present did not find it strange that Saburo Fujino proposed a competition.
It was originally supposed to be the content, but it was just brought forward.
The question is, if Fang Yan accepts the challenge, will his class represent Zhuque Middle School? Is Zhuque Middle School willing to be represented by Fang Yan's Class 9?
In the past, students from the top class were sent out to participate in reception tasks.
"Compared to what? How?" Fang Yan asked.
"It's better than the tea ceremony, calligraphy and fencing." Saburo Fujino said confidently. "If we lose, then I take back what I just said and apologize to you in public."
"Okay. Then it's decided." Fang Yan said. "When will it start?"
"There's no rush." Saburo Fujino sneered. This guy is too cunning. Now he has only talked about how to apologize if his side loses, but has not yet said how he will be punished if he loses. "If your side loses, then what?
How are you doing?"
"It's impossible for us to lose." Fang Yan waved his hand and said. He felt that this was an impossible thing and not worth wasting time discussing.
"----What if we lose?" Fujino Saburo was holding back his anger again. Fang Yan was like an inflatable balloon. With a few words and a few puffs, he inflated his big balloon.
Fang Yan thought for a while and said, "If our side loses, I will also apologize to you and admit that what you said about Tang Dynasty culture in Japan is correct."
"It's a deal," Fujisato Saburo said.
Fang Yan rolled up his sleeves and asked: "When will the competition start? Should we compete in tea ceremony, calligraphy or fencing first? How about fencing first? Everyone likes to watch the excitement. Let's have fun first?"
Saburo Fujino saw Fang Yan looking like he wanted to fight and said, "Teacher Fang Yan - what are you going to do? It's not a competition between you and me, it's a competition between my students and your students. Whether Chinese culture can be passed on?
It's not just decided by us teachers. It's decided by the future of these countries."
Saburo Fujino pointed at the students from both countries in the class and said, "They are the witnesses and beneficiaries."
"Whether Chinese culture has been passed on or not, teachers are the most qualified to speak. If the teacher's ability is mediocre, how can he be qualified to teach students and solve their doubts? You are a teacher, and I am also a teacher. Why don't we just compete? Simple and direct.
"
Fang Yan thought, if this kid agrees to fence with him, then break his hands and feet first and see how he can continue the tea ceremony calligraphy competition-----
"If you want to compete, then you and I will have another one. But it will be after these students' competition." Fujino Saburo said. He knew that Chinese people are very proud of face, and the most difficult thing is to challenge the generals. He sneered and said: "Fang
Teacher Yan, don’t you have confidence in your students?”
Fang Yan looked at the students in the audience and asked, "Do you have confidence?"
"Yes." The student from Class 9 shouted forcefully. He was very emotional and had an excited expression.
"Look." Fang Yan smiled. "They are full of confidence, and I am a hundred times more confident. Since Mr. Fujino challenges again and again, then we have no choice but to accept the challenge. In fact, I really don't want to do this, why? I have to
Take the risk. If I lose, some people in the school will say that I am incompetent and want to kick me out. If I win, those people who say that I am incompetent will think that I have damaged the relationship between the two schools.
, or are you thinking of kicking me out. Do you think it’s better for me to win or lose?”
"--------" Li Ziqiang, Jia Siting and others felt burning pain on their faces. They had already thought about using this incident to find an excuse to kick this kid out. Unexpectedly, Fang Yan did not defeat his opponent, so he attacked first
Their faces were squinted from left to right.
"What do we Chinese people pay attention to? Peace is the most important thing. If my students beat your students, you will definitely be in a bad mood - you can't win in a competition, you can't win in a fight, so be happy
, left sadly. When we went back, others thought we had done something to you."
"The outcome has not yet been determined, I believe in my students." Saburo Fujino said. He thought to himself, why does this kid always want to compete with himself? Does he really have extraordinary talent?
At this moment, the get out of class bell rang.
Even though the students from Dongyang were dissatisfied with Fang Yan, they still stood up politely, bowed together, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
The Takehito inspection team lined up and left the classroom in an orderly manner. Matsushima looked at Fang Yan thoughtfully.
Lu Chaoge had no expression on her face from beginning to end, making it unclear what her true attitude was.
After all the outsiders left and there were only students from Class 9 in the classroom, Fang Yan walked over and closed the classroom door.
There was a lot of bustle outside the classroom, but inside the classroom you could hear a needle drop.
The smile on Fang Yan's face gradually faded, he looked at the forty students in the class with a serious expression and said, "What do you want to say?"
"Teacher Fang's rebuttal is so good-----"
"Teacher Fang, just compete, who is afraid of whom-----"
"Is the sea still afraid of small rivers? If it swallows them up, it will be -----"
--------
Fang Yan did not laugh. He looked at the students in the audience with gentle eyes and said: "In front of foreigners, I will never admit that what they said is right no matter what - they want to beat us."
Should we slap ourselves in the face too? I can’t do it.”
"Now behind closed doors, all of us here are our own people. Let's think about it seriously and reflect on it. Why is such a sentence spread? The culture of the Tang Dynasty is in the East, and the culture of the Song Dynasty is in South Korea. Is it right?
In some aspects, are they really doing better than us?"
"Are we really trying our best? Do we really have a clear conscience? Times are developing, technology is advancing, we have gained a lot, and we are getting stronger and stronger. But, have we lost a lot of precious things?"
"What do we have in China? We have agricultural culture, we have hundreds of schools of thought, we have "High Mountains and Flowing Waters" and "Guangling Songs", we have calligraphy, French painting, Tai Chi and Bagua. We have the twelve zodiac signs, we have "The Book of Songs" and "Chu Ci"
" and "Sun Tzu's Art of War". We have traditional festivals, we have Kun Opera, Henan Opera, Hunan Opera, Peking Opera, shadow play, Huangmei Opera, we have the Great Wall Garden and the Bell Tower. We have traditional Chinese medicine, we have Yin Yang and the Five Elements, we have paper-cut kites and clay figurine embroidery,
We have four major inventions, food, cooking utensils and clothes - you can't even imagine how rich we are. But are we proud of this?"
Fang Yan looked at the students in the audience and said: "What I don't understand is why those who have learned a little bit dare to come to our territory to provoke us? Are we too kind or can we really be bullied? What does it look like?
A situation that makes them think—that we have really lost all the essence of our culture?”
The students were silent, thinking about every word Fang Yan said.
Yes, what makes those Japanese people think that they are the true inheritors of Tang culture?
Are they really as good as they say? Or is there a gap in our inheritance of Tang culture and has become a joke in the eyes of others?
Did I pass on something?
I drank American Coke, watched Japanese cartoons, played Blizzard games, sang Korean songs, and drove German cars ----- Tang poems and Song lyrics, how many poems did I memorize? The thoughts of Lao and Zhuang, who are Lao and Zhuang? Thoughts
Where is it? How many pages have you read of the Four Great Classics? How many moves have you played in chess and Go?
We think steak Western food is high-end food. Aren’t the thousands of variations of the eight major cuisines the essence of food?
Are the Japanese wrong? Or are we wrong?
"If the Japanese win, they gain face. If we lose, we lose face."
Fang Yan stood on the podium and bowed deeply to the students in the audience: "Please, everyone, please step on them severely."

Lu Chaoge didn't speak, and Fang Yan didn't speak either.
Lu Chaoge is writing a manuscript, holding a black pen with his white fingers, and the beautiful small characters are jumping on the paper like newborn silkworm chrysalis, which is pleasing to the eye.
What's even better is the people.
Lu Chaoge is really a rare beauty. Her hands are like catkins, her skin is like gelatin, her figure is plump and uneven, and her facial features are exquisite and flawless.
She was wearing a black slim-fitting uniform today, which was lined with a light yellow stand-up collar shirt. Two buttons of the shirt were unbuttoned, revealing a white and tender neck.
The most touching thing is her cold and arrogant expression, as if nothing is in her eyes. She is a goddess in the sky, and you are a speck of dust on the ground.
When it comes to youth, Jiang Qin ranks first. When it comes to aura, Qin Yitian is invincible.
In terms of charm, Lu Chaoge has no rival, but in terms of brutal violence, Ye Wenwen is alone and seeking defeat, leaving others thousands of miles away.
Fang Yan rarely sees Lu Chaoge wearing casual clothes. Of course, she also looks good in professional clothes.
Snap!
Lu Chaoge finally capped the pen, then picked up the tea in front of him and drank it.
Fang Yan also held the tea cup and took a sip of tea, as if they were toasting and drinking it all in one go.
Lu Chaoge looked at Fang Yan with sharp eyes and said, "I have convinced the board of directors and the school leadership to agree that you will lead the students of Class 9 to accept the challenge of the Wuren inspection team on behalf of Zhuque Middle School."
"It's okay if you don't agree." Fang Yan smiled. "It's me they're looking for."
"If you lose, I will tell you to get lost. If you win, I will promise you a condition." Lu Chaoge said.
"What's the condition?" Fang Yan asked happily. "I don't have to pay back the money I borrowed from you?"
