Chapter 743 Knowledge is Priceless
Hu Zong was overjoyed, and quickly borrowed a pen and paper from the side, wrote down his address, and gave it to Liu Xie respectfully.

Liu Xie took it and put it in his sleeve.

He knew who Hu Zong was, and he wanted to recruit, but this was not the right occasion.Leave the address and look back, maybe there will be more gains.

Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. Those who can study with Hu Zong must not be mediocre.

Just as he was talking, the class came to an end. The people in the class didn't move much, but most of the people in the class got up, some just moved their bodies, and some shook their heads and sighed, ready to leave.

Seeing them like that, Liu Xie knew that what Hu Zong said was true.

There are quite a few people who want to take the exam, but not many people really feel that they have a chance, and many people quit before taking the exam.

Liu Xie bid farewell to Hu Zong and went straight to the back hall.

Hu Zong looked at Liu Xie's back, his eyes changed.He turned around and left the door of the lecture hall. Looking around, he found some out-of-the-ordinary knights, suddenly realized, slapped his thigh hard, turned and left in a hurry.

When Liu Xie came to the back hall, he was drinking water after Fu Fu, surrounded by several disciples, some were serving, some were asking for advice, and there was a young woman among them.

Seeing Liu Xie approaching, the young woman got up to avoid it, and quickly got up to salute after Fu Wan.

After meeting with Fu Wan, Liu Xie took his seat and asked about the exam straight to the point.

He knows that there are thresholds for admission to Taixue, but he doesn't know what these thresholds are, and he is still in the groping stage.Fu Wan used the method of archaeological texts to determine the candidates for entry, whether it was his own idea or a general method, he needed to ask clearly.

Fu finished listening, and said calmly: "This is my own method."

"Why?"

Fu finished with a sigh. "Your Majesty, do you still remember the situation of Luoyang Taixue? Less than [-]% of the [-] Taixue students really study hard, and the rest are busy with socializing. After studying for several years, they can't even understand the most basic characters. Isn't it a waste of the court's money and my time?"

Liu Xie nodded. "That's all?"

"Does Your Majesty think that they want to join my sect just for learning?"

Liu Xie blinked and couldn't help laughing.

Although Fu Wan is honest, he is not stupid.

Although Fu Wan is the official residence of the Shaofu, it does not match his identity as the father of the queen.But the emperor respects the queen, and the possibility of Fu's family continuing in the future is very high.After entering the sect, the future is obviously brighter than that of other sacrificial wines.

"I don't want to be a shortcut for those people to pick up the green and the purple. If you want to join my school, you must be sincere in learning. If you want to be an official, it's better not to."

Liu Xie felt that Fu Wan was very sober, but his method was a bit inappropriate. "But Shao Fu tested their ancient prose, even if someone really wants to learn it, without "Shuowen Jiezi", I'm afraid they won't be able to pass the test?"

"This is not the responsibility of the veteran." Fu Wan was also a little dissatisfied. "Your Majesty might as well ask Mrs. Tang why a book is so expensive to sell for one gold. It's just expensive, and the quantity is still small. I heard that a total of [-] copies were printed, and nearly [-] of them were not sold at all. , just to give away.”

Looking at the pained face, Liu Xie probably understood the reason.

Private schools flourished in the Han Dynasty, and great Confucians had tens of thousands of disciples, but only a small number of them could truly accept the teachings of great Confucians, so there were great differences between disciples and disciples.

The simplest is the named disciple, only a teacher-student relationship in name, who may never meet each other, and of course there is no cultural inheritance.

This type of people is only the periphery of the disciples, not really entering the master's door.

There are different levels for those who really start learning, such as getting started, going to the hall, and entering the house.

Those who can listen to the lectures in the hall are the ones who are in the hall, and most of them are the introductory disciples of Fu Wan. These people have a clear knowledge inheritance, which is the so-called teacher method.

Liu Xie saw just now that most of the disciples who listened to the lecture had "Shuowen Jiezi", and at least one copy was shared by two people. That is to say, in the hardcover version of "Shuowen Jiezi" printed by Mrs. Twenty of them were in the hands of Fu Wan's teachers and students.

Twenty books is twenty gold, even for Fu Wan, it is not a small sum of money.

The high book price affected Fu Wan's teaching, of course he was unhappy.

But Liu Xie understood why Mrs. Tang did this.

It's not just about making money.

With more and more bookstores, one bookstore per county will be realized sooner or later. How can the Wenxiu Bookstore she presides over gain a foothold?That is to build word of mouth and be the best bookstore.

This hardcover version of "Shuowen Jiezi" is to establish a reputation among scholars and let them know that being able to read the hardcover version of works in Wenxiu Books is the best embodiment of academics. Having a book published by Wenxiu Bookstore It is a symbol of academic grade.

This is not only true for individual scholars, but it has even become a sign of whether a county has a sufficient academic level. The publication of "Shuowen Jiezi" has become a sign of the outstanding people in Runan to some extent.

In fact, "Shuowen Jiezi" can have such a status, in addition to the academic content of the book itself, it has something to do with a large number of women from Runan.

Such as Yuan Quan.She was the first person who suggested that "Shuowen Jiezi" could be used as a teaching material, and she wrote a simplified version herself, which played a vital role in promoting "Shuowen Jiezi".

There are not many books that can enjoy the same treatment as "Shuowen Jiezi", and there is still a "Lunheng" in preparation.

Huangfu Li also wanted to print a book, "On the Latent Fu" by Andingren Wang Fu, but Mrs. Tang refused.The superficial reason is that the academic height needs to be demonstrated by scholars, and there are regional disputes behind the scenes.

Kanto people are unwilling to let Kansai people have such an opportunity.

If it were not for the support of Liu Xie himself, "Lunheng" might not have entered the stage of being printed and distributed so quickly.Wenxiu Bookstore's publication plan is another book, "Cai Yong's Collected Works".

Fu Wan was in such a hurry to study the unearthed ancient books, maybe he wanted to justify Langya's name.

"The paperback version of "Shuowen Jiezi" will be on sale soon, and the price will be much cheaper." Liu Xie said: "But I agree with the idea of ​​​​sufficient, rather than indiscriminate. Right now people's livelihood is difficult, and they can't afford too many readers."

"The old minister understands." Fu Wan said with a little bit of resentment and a little helplessness.

Liu Xie ignored him.This is his sincere words. He hopes that more scholars will enter engineering schools, medical schools, agricultural schools, and even business schools, instead of rushing to study Confucian classics.

That is the purpose of his rebuilding Taixue.

If he is still the same as Luoyang Taixue, raising [-] Taixue students who have nothing to do, know how to make friends and praise each other every day, wouldn't he be asking for trouble.

In his view, it is enough for [-] people to study Confucian classics, and the rest should study practical studies such as agriculture, engineering, and business. Only in this way can they embark on the road of healthy development.

"I'm here today, besides watching the reconstruction process of Taixue, I also want to find a few people." Liu Xie then explained the purpose of coming, hoping that after Fu Wan would find a way for him, it would be best if he could recommend a few people.

"Kong Wenju." Fu Wan didn't think about it. "He is the most suitable candidate."

"He refuses." Liu Xie shrugged. "Is there any more?"

Fu Wan was not surprised at all, then thought about it, and said: "There is really one, does your majesty know about Yuedan's comment?"

"Xu Zijiang? Has he come to Chang'an?"

Fu Wan shook his head, revealing a sly smile. "It's not Xu Zijiang, it's another chief reviewer of Yuedan Review, Xu Jing and Xu Wenxiu."
