With Jia Xu's tactful way of dealing with things, no matter how surprised he was in his heart, he would not express it to others. Then the old man and the young man continued to look around, and the whole picture of the academy was gradually revealed in front of the three of them.
The majors in the academy are very detailed. The so-called liberal arts academy alone has many colleges such as politics and law, commerce, economics, literature and history, art, education, etc. Within each college, there are also subdivisions. For example, Zhuge Liang and others
The School of Political Science and Law that you have just met is divided into several majors such as law, public affairs, and people's livelihood.
Ordinary students only need to study their own major. However, if you have spare time after completing your studies, you can also study multiple subjects concurrently.
Discussions can be seen everywhere in the academy. The content is different, but the nature is similar. They are all related to various majors. Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong even heard several students majoring in literature and history discussing Wang Yu's discussion about proclaiming emperor, and each expressed their opinions.
Have your own point of view.
Some people think that Wang Yu's act of selflessness set a good example for future generations and created peace for all generations.
Some people also hold objections, believing that the artifact has no owner and only virtuous people live in it. If Wang Yu refuses to ascend the treasure, how can he guarantee the eternal stability of the country and the peace of the times?
The new and old ideas, each different, were brewing and fermenting in the debate, which aroused the thinking of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, until another young man revealed the secret. He said: If the hussar general wants to be emperor, then he will only maintain it in the future.
The ruler of one family does not claim to be emperor. What he wants to maintain is the political system involving the entire world.
And so on.
Under Wang Yu's deliberate cultivation, in the late Han Dynasty, when thoughts were not completely restricted by Confucianism, individuality was flying. The sparks of thoughts collided with each other and flickered. They were gradually taking shape outside the consciousness of the heroes of the Central Plains. One day, they would become a prairie fire.
momentum.
Zhuge Liang could never have imagined that, unless he saw it with his own eyes or heard it with his own ears, this Taishan Academy, which the world simply regarded as the place where Wang Yu gathered talents, had so many unique features. No matter how deviant his thoughts were, he could speak freely here.
Make it known to the public openly and openly.
What kind of development this academy will have in the future is difficult to predict with Zhuge Liang's intelligence. But one thing is certain for him. If he stays in Gaotang and stays in this magical academy, life will definitely become very interesting.
.
Although Pang Tong said nothing, his eyes were shining.
Especially after seeing the academy's library, the two teenagers' eyes suddenly widened and they could not blink, let alone look away.
"Oh my God, why are there so many books here?" Zhuge Liang shouted.
It's not that Zhuge Liang is rare. It's just that in this era, books are extremely important wealth. Before paper and printing became popular, most books were engraved on bamboo slips, and teachers taught students. Generally, they were dictated, and students remembered it, etc.
After the teacher finishes speaking, think of a way to record it yourself. If your memory is not good, it will be difficult to even get started.
As for gifting books, just like the legend of Zhang Liang and Huang Shigong, teachers gift books to students. It almost means passing on the legacy. Those famous Confucian scholars usually have quite large collections of books, just like the weapons of military commanders.
Likewise, books are the foundation of a literati’s existence.
There are tens of thousands of books in the library of the academy! Just at a glance, the rows of neatly arranged bookshelves are dazzling.
Even if the collections of the most famous Confucian scholars in the world were added together, I am afraid they would not be able to reach the number of books collected here. God knows where Wang Yu collected so many books.
Moreover, these books are not written on bamboo slips, but on paper. The ink on the pages is still new, exuding a faint fragrance of ink, making the entire library full of the smell of scrolls and calligraphy.
"After the Battle of Yangren, Dong Zhuo spent money to buy a way and fled back to Guanzhong. Among the terms at that time, there was this one..."
In such a place, Jia Xu's words also brought a hint of solemnity: "Most of the books here are from the palace collection. Dong Zhuo didn't know the goods and gave the books to his lord without even bargaining.
However, given the situation at that time, he didn’t have much room for bargaining..."
Jia Xu's tone became more vicissitudes of life, and he sighed and recalled: "With the collection in the palace, the academy has the best foundation. Coupled with the selfless donations of professors such as Cai Zhonglang and Mr. You'an, as well as the Lord's campaign to pacify Jizhou,
Acquired from the rival wealthy families, we finally have a collection of 43,000 books here!"
"You should know that the academy recruits students for free. It is said that there is no cost, but the effort still has to be sold. The books here are all copied by the students after the Qingzhou paper came out... Of course, after hard work, it is also
There will be no reward. But all students in the academy can borrow books here at will..."
In later generations, the amount of books in the library was one of the important indicators to evaluate the standard of a university. This era is no exception. With these more than 40,000 books alone, the foundation of Taishan Academy has surpassed that of Lumen Mountain.
Taking into account this loan system...it means that the information transmission in this era is too slow. Otherwise, the gate of Taishan Academy would have been crowded by the swarming scholars.
As long as you have read books and studied, who doesn’t know how precious books are?
The collection of books in Lumen Mountain is not as large as that of Taishan Academy, and borrowing is even more difficult. Only disciples who are recognized by Pound and intend to truly cultivate them can have access to his collection, just like the inner disciples in the novel.
.
However, Taishan Academy treats everyone equally and opens up its supply. No wonder the people I just met are more knowledgeable than ordinary scholars. Not only because the teachers teach well and the academic environment is good, but more importantly, they read a lot of books.
!
"Aren't you afraid of damage or loss if you do this?" Pang Tong couldn't help but ask.
He is Mr. Pang De's nephew, so of course he knows the origin of the rules of Lumen Mountain. It's not that Mr. Pang De is stingy, it's just that books are too precious and too fragile, and it's too dangerous to pick them up. So he must have someone who has passed the exam.
Only after tasting the product can you decide whether to formally introduce the mountain gate.
The books here are all made of paper and are more easily damaged and lost than bamboo slips. Although Taishan Academy is grand, it doesn't mean that it doesn't matter, right?
As a result, he didn't expect it, and it really didn't matter. Jia Xu flicked his sleeves and said with a smile: "The books here have a strict registration and compensation system, so there is no need to worry. Moreover, even if it is really lost, it is still there anyway."
, just copy another copy..."
He blinked mysteriously: "Of course copying is troublesome, but this problem will soon be gone. With Madam's repeated urging, the technology invented by the Lord will soon be put into use. By then, the book,
It will be popularized on a large scale, and even county schools will set up library libraries. It should not be difficult to distribute a few copies to all students."
"..." Zhuge Liang and the two were shocked and speechless.
They know the education system of Qingzhou’s New Deal. There are schools in the villages, schools in the counties, and central academies in the capital. If this system can really be established, even the legendary rule of Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors will not be able to compete with Qingzhou in terms of education. This
It’s like everyone is like a dragon!
Such a large system involves more than tens of millions of people?
Taking the current jurisdiction of Qingzhou alone, the population has exceeded one million households! Even if there is one student for every ten households, this is still a hundred thousand people! With Taishan Academy here, how many people can be given instruction?
Possibly, each student can be given a few books as teaching materials...
Oh my god! How many books are there? What technology can easily produce so many books? Is it the magic of gods?
It wasn't until he was far away from the library, almost leaving the Academy of Arts and walking to the Academy of Martial Arts, that Zhuge Liang recovered from the shock and asked Jia Xu about the magical technology.
This time, Jia Xu, who had always told everything he knew and had nothing to say, kept it secret. He only said that he would know it when the time comes, but did not reveal the substantive content at all. This made Zhuge Liang feel itchy in his heart and wished he could tell this.
The fat man was tied up and tortured.
The name that distinguishes the two parts of the academy is civil and military, but this civil and military is different from the usual meaning. To explain it in Jia Xu's words, the liberal arts academy emphasizes theory and skills, while the martial arts academy emphasizes practical application.
In later generations’ parlance, it is of course divided into liberal arts and sciences.
As soon as we arrived at the Wuyuan, the first thing we saw were square pieces of farmland. According to Jia Xu's explanation, these were specially used for the cultivation of seedlings for agricultural students.
In ancient times, Shen Nong tasted hundreds of herbs, and human agriculture came into existence. After that, how to develop new crops and increase crop yields can be regarded as a science, but it is usually mastered only by veteran farmers. Now Taishan Academy specializes in
It is classified as a new major, and many veteran farmers over sixty years old who have been working in the fields all their lives have been recruited as visiting professors.
After the farmland are the workshops.
The location of the workshop was originally on the edge of the city. Now the city wall there has been demolished. Several iconic windmills and waterwheels stand high on the bank of the river. There are also several small piers and docks along the river.
This scene has nothing to do with the academy, but it actually exists.
Immediately behind the workshop is a large school ground. After Jia Xu's explanation, the two young men knew that it was used by the military academy for martial arts exercises.
"The Military Academy is also divided in detail. For now, there are two main directions, namely: actual combat and staff... Actual combat is to specialize in learning basic skills such as marching, training, and setting up camps. The emphasis is on practice. General Wen Ze, who is currently guarding Wei County, is
A master of this art is also highly regarded by the lord... The staff officer specializes in learning strategies, strategies and tactics."
It seemed that he had talked too much and his mouth was dry. Although he saw that the two young men were more interested in the military academy, Jia Xu did not explain much. Instead, he changed the topic and pointed to the river bank and said: "
The Lord is here. If you have any questions, you can ask Him face to face.” (To be continued...)
