Kai Fu Han

Chapter 445
"General Liu, this is the residence of Duke Yansheng, at the feet of the saint! How dare you be so presumptuous? Aren't you afraid that all the scholars in the world will boycott you?" Kong Fan couldn't help but shouted loudly.

Liu Xinqi wanted to ransack his home in disguise, which had already touched Kong Fan's unbearable bottom line.

"It is precisely because this is at the feet of a saint that I think what should be done. I think even if the saint knows about it, he will definitely be very happy and relieved."

Liu Xinqi had no reaction to Kong Fan's anger.

To Liu Xinqi, Kong Fan now is like the little yellow dog barking at him at the entrance of the village, but he can still bite him back.

His face continued to remain calm:

"Let this place be transformed into a school to pass on the unique knowledge of the past saints. 'The sun and the moon are shining brightly, and Fudan University is here.' Let's call this school 'Fudan University'."

This sentence comes from "Shang Shu Da Zhuan·Yu Xia Biography", and the explanation is: The brilliance of the sun and the moon shines on the earth every day.It means continuous self-improvement.In addition, "Fudan" also means not forgetting Cathay and reviving China.Cathay, transliterated from the Sanskrit "Ci^na", is a foreign name for China in ancient times.

"General Liu, this is my home! If you transform this place into a school, where will we descendants of saints live?" Feng Shenggong asked through gritted teeth.

"In order to spread the Dao, didn't the saints in those days lead students to travel around the world and call themselves home all over the world? Moreover, thousands of fertile fields can only serve three meals a day, and tens of thousands of mansions can only sleep on couches three feet wide. What do you want with such a luxurious courtyard?" Liu Xinqi? He said forcefully: "And in the final analysis, these houses and fields were given to your Kong family by the imperial court, and the imperial court's source of income is the taxes of the people."

"It is taken from the people and used by the people. These houses are used to shelter the students from the wind and rain, and the fields of the Kong family will also be returned to the people. I will not take a copper coin from it and put it in my own pocket. You can rest assured about that." , I will do what I say." After Liu Xinqi finished speaking, he stood up, walked up and patted Kong Fan on the shoulder, with an expression of "You have to believe me."

However, Kong Fan was not concerned about this at all. He was already a little dizzy. It was really a scholar meeting a soldier, and he couldn't explain why.Kong Fan felt that it was almost impossible to communicate with Liu Xinqi. The two of them talked about their own things and could not talk together at all.

"These houses and fields were accumulated by generations of our ancestors of the Kong family through hard work, and were not given to us by the imperial court." Kong Fan retorted.

Liu Xinqi wanted to say, "Then I'll buy it." He would give the Kong family the same treatment as other good gentry families, but the Kong family had so many fields that the value of these houses was immeasurable. With the current total assets of Yixing Hanmeng, we really can’t afford it.

"I believe that the Kong family, as the descendants of Confucius, will definitely not care about these extraneous things. Now Jurchen Tartars are rampant, wolves are in power, and in the northwest, there are Xixia, Mongolia and other countries coveting the land of Kyushu. If you don't take action, Huaxia will definitely Perished. I believe that if the saint were alive, he would definitely not want to see this scene." Liu Xin said.

"Such a wonderful courtyard can gather young people in their prime to listen to the teachings of saints. When they grow up, we can drive away foreign enemies and restore China. What a great undertaking this is."

"Master Kong must be willing to dedicate these courtyards." Liu Xinqi looked at Kong Fan.

"Where are we going to live?" Kong Fan asked.

"The Xinghan League has limited capabilities. It has only restored Jingdong East Road and Jingdong East Road. However, these places are already very large. I estimate that the total population must exceed 500 million, of which more than [-]% are illiterate." Liu Xinqi opened his arms and gestured with a big number: "These people are eager for knowledge. However, there are too few literate people in the Xinghan League to teach these foolish men and women the way to be a saint. I want to make the saints of the Kong family Descendants teach these people how to read and write..."

Before Liu Xinqi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Kong Fan:
"Are you going to exile us all?"

"How can this be considered an exile? Your delicate finances are still yours. You are paid for teaching knowledge, and you have holidays for a fixed period. Generally speaking, you are free, but you have one more sacred job of educating the world than before. That's all." Liu Xin said.

Ten years of trees, a hundred years of trees.

Education is a top priority.There is a shortage of teachers in the Xinghan League, and these Kong family members happen to be able to read and write. It is very suitable to carry out literacy education according to the teaching materials of the Xinghan League.

As for whether they will teach indiscriminately and pass on ideas that are not conducive to the Xinghan League, the Dali Yuan and Di Ting are not just for nothing.

Not everyone has the courage to "idea is greater than life".

Seeing that Kong Fan wanted to continue talking, Liu Xinqi stopped him directly: "The sage said: There is no distinction between education and distinction. Don't hesitate. I have already made arrangements. Someone will take you to various primary and secondary schools. Your food, clothing, housing and transportation will be properly arranged. Don't worry. .”

Liu Xinqi has always wanted to carry out comprehensive compulsory education for school-age children, but the teaching staff has always been the biggest problem that has plagued the implementation of this plan.

Now that there are so many literate people, at least there is no shortage of teachers for the "Chinese" course.With the addition of a math teacher, we can basically universalize compulsory education at the primary school level.

Strengthening the country through education is the lowest cost and fastest effective way to strengthen the country.

People like Confucius can teach children to read and write. As for higher education, it can be left to higher-level schools, middle schools and universities.By then students will be exposed to more knowledge and will basically not have to worry about being influenced by the ideas of people like Confucius.

Moreover, there is another benefit to sending these people to the countryside.

In Liu Qi's previous life, the great man once launched a movement for educated young people to go to the mountains and countryside to receive re-education from poor and lower-middle peasants.

Liu Xinqi also intends to learn from this model and let these people go to the countryside to be re-educated by the simple people. While educating the ignorant people in the mountains, let them use the people as their teachers and learn some knowledge that is really beneficial to the people from the wilderness.

Maybe some great talents can really emerge from these people.

"How dare you!!!" Kong Fan, who was being driven out by the guards, shouted loudly.

"What don't I dare to do?" Liu Xinqi smiled, and this time he smiled for real: "The sage said: If three people are walking together, there must be me as their teacher. Let you learn what 'people's livelihood' is, so that you will not go astray and commit the crime." Blunder."

"This is all for your own good."

Confucius said, "Mi Guan Zhong, I was sent to the left." The Kong family is the descendant of the saints, and the puppet Qi is still wearing the skin of the Han court. The Jin Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty that followed were not Han nationality.

If these Kong family members were simply allowed to leave, they would most likely go north and surrender to the foreign courts. Liu Xinqi would not be merciful in dealing with these traitors.

Kong Fan's face turned red with anger: "You will regret it..."

[I won’t regret it, I know what I’m doing. 】

Liu Xinqi thought to himself that Kong Fan had already been driven away by this time.
