"Mr. Kuang, you came in time. I was preparing to split the Machinery Bureau and build a Fengtian Arsenal, and you helped find talents. I am really grateful!"
"It is not easy to build an arsenal!" Kuang Rongguang sighed: "They all say that a republic is good, but it has been more than four years since we established a republic. As a result, heavy industry has not developed at all. The arsenals are still the same ones established by the former Qing Dynasty, such as Ningchang and Shanghai.
The factories, Sichuan factories, and Han factories, have not improved much in machine technology, 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 happens, the more we have to work hard to catch up, otherwise we will fall further behind. I have prepared sufficient funds, start with a little maintenance, and then seize the opportunity
, purchasing equipment from the West, as long as we continue to develop, sooner or later Fengtian Arsenal will become a well-known large factory in China, and even the entire world!"
"Haha, humble words, I admire your drive. Many of us were like this when we came back from the United States. As a result, we wasted most of our lives without achieving anything famous. I'm really ashamed!"
Kuang Rongguang smiled self-deprecatingly and said: "The two people I recommend to you, one is named Chen Qiming. His father, Chen Ronggui, and I are fellow villagers, and we were both classmates studying in the United States. This child also went to the United States to study in chemical engineering. In addition,
One is called Xiong Mengyuan, a distant relative of mine who was born in Nanyang and later went to England to study. These two children have lived in the West for a long time and may not be accustomed to the country. If there is anything wrong, please forgive me.
One or two.”
In fact, these two people are both in their early twenties, much older than Zhang Tinglan, but Kuang Rongguang said this very naturally. The methods Zhang Tinglan showed made him no longer treat this person as a junior.
"Mr. Kuang, I only have one requirement, that is, to have real talent and practical knowledge. If you can show your real skills, you will be reused. If you can't show them, it's useless to say anything!"
"Well, they will arrive in Fengtian in three to five days. Then I will take them to visit!"
After seeing off Kuang Rongguang, Zhang Tinglan continued to supervise the training of the new army. These days, under the threat of sticks, the soldiers were gradually able to line up in order. Their physical fitness has also been greatly improved. The most important thing is
These people gradually adapted to the discipline of the military camp and had 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. It will eventually penetrate into the bone marrow. From the moment they enter the military camp, they will be trained bit by bit. Watch the new recruits gradually transform.
Zhang Tinglan was also very pleased. These boys were his capital to gain a foothold in the army. They were his courage and his face!
The new army trains during the day and has to spend two hours studying at night, half an hour of which is to learn the discipline and regulations of the military camp. The other half hour is mainly about literacy and learning some simple drawing operations.
In the past, literacy in private schools was based on the teacher reading one sentence and the students following it, which was not very efficient. After Zhang Tinglan took over, he first promoted blackboards and chalk, combining reading and writing, looking with eyes, reading with mouth, and thinking in mind.
, 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 thing is that Chinese characters are two-dimensional on paper.
Dimensional encoding, while letters are only one-dimensional.
In this way, Chinese characters convey more and richer information, so Chinese vocabulary has restrained characteristics. For example, a train is a new thing. We first know that it is a vehicle that transports things, and then this vehicle emits smoke.
Gudong, everything is called a train.
The same is true for computers. They use electricity and can calculate. When combined, they become computers. Instead of giving each new thing a new name like Westerners do. Even if there is a root, the complicated changes will cause great trouble. Many majors
Except for people in this subject, no one else knows the name at all, but this problem does not exist in Chinese. As long as you can read it and make a little association, you can guess a name that is inseparable from ten.
Therefore, when Zhang Tinglan taught Chinese characters, he first promoted Pinyin. Pinyin is not a new thing. As early as the Ming Dynasty, when Western scholars came to China, they first used letters to notate Chinese characters. After the late Qing Dynasty, many scholars
They all pointed out that Chinese characters were complicated and difficult to recognize, which was an important factor restricting Chinese people's learning, so a large number of pinyin 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 also specially created a literacy wall chart. The combination of pictures, text, and pinyin would appear to later generations to be a small
It is a children's toy, but now it is still a very novel teaching tool and very interesting.
There are several hanging charts in each barracks. Many soldiers will study carefully around the wall charts whenever they have free time. Chinese people are not stupid. On the contrary, many studies in later generations have shown that the average IQ of Chinese people is among the highest in the world. As long as there is a chance
, the Chinese people can burst out with strong learning ability.
This is the case for these soldiers. After more than a month of study, those with some basic knowledge can basically understand more than 500 characters, and others can also reach 200 or 300 characters. Zhang Tinglan simply posted the multiplication tables in the barracks.
, and then subscribe to some newspapers and magazines.
Under his hard work, the Second Regiment almost became a school. The recruits of the First Regiment did not understand it at first and often made fun of the Second Regiment, saying that they were not doing their job. As a result, over time, the soldiers of the First Regiment gradually realized that
A hint of mystery.
Those soldiers of the Second Regiment who were illiterate like themselves were already able to read books and newspapers. When training on some new subjects, they understood them faster than themselves. After getting the weapons, they could understand the operation manuals and understand various aspects.
parameters, get started faster.
There was a big gap in the quality of the soldiers in a short period of time, so that the regiment commander Sun Anhu had to go to Zhang Tinglan to learn from Zhang Tinglan. By the way, he borrowed a few soldiers who had the best learning results and took them away.
A large number of wall charts.
Yang Yuting was also responsible for the education of soldiers, but when he saw how popular Zhang Tinglan was, he simply taught only tactical movements and other things, leaving all the basics to Zhang Tinglan.
On this day, the soldiers were training on the school field. The weather in October has gradually turned cooler. The autumn wind was blowing on the body, cool and comfortable. But the school field could only feel the excitement of midsummer. The soldiers were sweating like rain and working hard.
After running and physical training, target training is carried out.
The leader of the group has promised that whoever has the best grades will get an exquisite dagger. Perhaps due to the nature of men, everyone does not like swords and other things, so everyone is working hard.
At this time, Kuang Rongguang brought two young people to the outside of Nanda Camp. Both of them were in their twenties or fives. One of them was taller and very stout. He was Xiong Mengyuan. The other was of medium build.
He looked very thin and had a bookish look on his face. He was none other than Chen Qiming.
"Uncle, I have long heard that the winter in the three northeastern provinces is so cold that it can freeze your ears off. I wonder why you are always willing to go outside the customs and suffer. Now I see that the situation is different. Just look at this Nanda Camp.
It’s so different from other places!”
Xiong Mengyuan was obviously very talkative and told Kuang Rongguang his feelings. In fact, after arriving in Fengtian, he felt a little different. Compared with other areas, Fengtian is more orderly and busier. There are construction sites everywhere.
Construction team.
The train station is surrounded by the North Market. Although it has not yet been completed, the road is wide, with shops on both sides, street lights, green trees, and even special garbage bins.
Just looking at this pattern, it even surpasses the Shili Foreign Market in Shanghai. Compared with Western cities, the gap is not very big. With a little knowledge, they gradually understood why Kuang Rongguang was willing to run outside the customs. Fengtian indeed has unlimited potential.
After arriving at Nanda Camp, the feeling became even more profound. The entire military camp was neatly built and cleaned, almost spotless. A special cordon was set up at the camp gate, and soldiers patrolled and stood guard. Each of these soldiers stood in straight military uniforms.
His expression was solemn.
Every movement was neat and standardized, which was very different from the armies in other parts of China. Kuang Rongguang also introduced that these were all made by Zhang Tinglan, and Xiong Mengyuan and Chen Qiming both had a strong interest in them.
After the guards reported, Kuang Rongguang took them into the military camp. At this time, Zhang Tinglan still had some training tasks to complete, so he simply asked others to take Kuang Rongguang to visit the military camp.
Kuang Rongguang was also very interested. He followed Zhang Tinglan from Beijing to Fengtian because he had confidence in this young man and could accomplish great things. Now he has arrived at Zhang Tinglan's territory, just to see what the young man's real level is.
As soon as he walked into a row of barracks, Xiong Mengyuan suddenly opened his mouth and showed an incredulous expression. He saw a row of beds, all with neat white sheets, and the quilts were stacked like knives and axes to chop them into neat pieces of tofu.
All kinds of supplies are placed in fixed locations.
There are more than thirty beds in this barracks, and each position is almost identical. The only difference is the number plate on it. There is no doubt that the army commander can be so neat and uniform. The military commander must be a capable person. Chen Qiming's
His 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 saw the clues and said with emotion: "Zhang Zhuoyan is young and has amazing knowledge. I'm afraid he made all 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 others."
While he was talking, Zhang Tinglan also rushed over. He smiled and said to Kuang Rongguang: "Mr. Kuang, these two are the talents you recommended!"
"I would like to say that this big man is Xiong Mengyuan and this is Chen Qiming. They are both my nephews and they have 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 say. They are here to make a living by relying on their real skills."
"Hey, what uncle Mr. Zhang said is so exciting. We have long been prepared to do something great."
"Mr. Zhang, I would like to ask a question." Chen Qiming suddenly asked: "You designed these wall charts, presumably to help soldiers learn literacy. Why do soldiers need to learn culture?"
"It is precisely because soldiers need more cultural knowledge. Weapons are becoming more and more advanced, and battlefield conditions are becoming more and more complex. Without enough knowledge, they simply cannot adapt to the changes in war. And they cannot be soldiers for a lifetime. Nowadays, many
If you know a few words, you can learn some skills after leaving the military camp and become a worker. In fact, you need to learn in any profession. What the Chinese people lack most now is knowledge."
"I'm so thoughtful!" Kuang Rongguang said with emotion. Chen Qiming and Xiong Mengyuan were also thoughtful. After a few simple chats, Zhang Tinglan found that these two young people were indeed quite capable, and their professional knowledge was not weak at all.
Satisfied, he took them directly to Fengtian Machinery Bureau.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a worker hanging in front of the door. A guy in his thirties with a savage face was beating the worker with orders and kept cursing. Zhang Tinglan immediately frowned.
Eyebrow. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
