Chapter 29 New Textbook
During the Republic of China, the status of teachers was very high.This can be seen from the monthly salary of teachers, which can easily start at hundreds of dollars.

Even if you don't look at it in terms of salary, you can still see the status of a teacher just from the phrase "the master of heaven and earth", which is still very marketable. Moreover, there is still one missing word, only "the master of heaven and earth" is left.

Fortunately, Mr. Shen may be a little deaf and did not hear Chen Jinhua's words. If he had been heard, he would only have to criticize him for not knowing how to respect teachers and mention it to the political and religious office, and then he would not even learn. On.

The Academic Affairs Office is not far from Building No. 1. After going downstairs, everyone only walked for [-] minute.

Although the Academic Affairs Office is quite large, it is full of books. Several tables are piled with books. The ground is covered with hills, leaving only a few aisles.

Teachers from other classes have also come with students to move books, so it seems a bit crowded.

Bao Guowei followed Mr. Shen in and took a cursory look at what books were there.

The books inside cover the main subjects such as Chinese, mathematics, inquiry, chemistry, and English, as well as miscellaneous topics such as painting and music.

Arrange them in categories according to grade and subject, and tie them into large bundles with ropes.

"Come on, come on, let's move some math books first. After moving them, we will immediately go to the classroom and distribute them to other students so that they can preview them. We started school late this year, and our math progress has lagged behind previous students."

Mr. Shen said, pointing to a pile of math books on the ground.

"How come we're behind in academic progress when the school year just started? Why are we comparing ourselves to previous students? Shouldn't we be comparing ourselves to those in the same class?"

"That's right, we haven't done anything yet and we're falling behind. I'm afraid this teacher is a bit strict, and life will be difficult in the future."

"I just hope he won't take up the gym class, so he won't even have to play ball."

Some students whispered that Mr. Shen was somewhat deaf, as if he had trouble hearing what others said.

Guo Chun and Bao Guowei were the first to pick up a bundle of mathematics books. The books in the new middle school were worthy of the tuition fees. They were thick and heavy. It was a bit difficult for the two of them to pick them up together.

But Bao Guowei's end should be slightly higher, and Guo Chun's end should be slightly lower, which makes the lower end a little laborious.

Bao Guowei has always been reluctant to do this kind of work of moving heavy objects, so as not to damage the waist joints and the like, which will be detrimental to future physical development, so he can only be lazy and a little aggrieved to Guo Chun.

Proper physical exercise and physical damage caused by work are two different things and cannot be confused.

Chen Jinhua originally wanted to intervene, but the two of them had already hugged each other and walked back, so he had no choice but to give up.

He went straight to pick out a thinner book, picked it up by himself and rushed towards Bao Guowei and the other two. Because the book was a bit heavy and he was chasing a bit hastily, he swayed a bit funny while walking.

"Hey, Guo Chun, who is Chen Jinhua?"

Bao Guowei asked as he walked.

"Hi, he..."

Guo Chun originally wanted to say something, but he just shook his head and said no more because Chen Jinhua had already caught up.

"Huh, Guo Chun, don't you have trouble moving this? Do you want me to help you and change it with you?"

"Just move your own."

Although it was a bit cold in the late autumn morning, Guo Chun's head was still slightly sweaty. Moving such a heavy book made his arms tremble and weak. He was upset and a little impatient with Chen Jinhua's attitude.

"Chen Jinhua, are you a day student or a boarder?"

Chen Jinhua was very happy to hear Bao Guowei ask him, and quickly looked at Bao Guowei with a smiling face.

"Ah, I live on campus."

"You live on campus? Your home is not in Gusu City?"

"Ha, my home...is outside, not in Gusu City." Chen Jinhua looked a little embarrassed, his eyes evasive, and he still smiled on his face, but he seemed a little overwhelmed.

He subconsciously twitched his arms to touch his head, but it was a bit difficult to move the book with both hands, and he couldn't pull out half of his hand out of thin air.

Bao Guowei knew clearly that outside might mean cities like Shanghai, Nanjing, and Tianjin, but considering Chen Jinhua's situation, the so-called outside probably meant the countryside outside Suzhou City.

Bao Guowei was very curious about how people in the countryside could collect enough tuition for provincial middle schools. This was almost an impossible task.

It is unrealistic to rely on farming to save money. After paying the land rent, farmers will not be able to save anything at all. They may still owe others money, and filling their stomachs will be a problem.

Moreover, Guo Chun and Chen Jinhua have known each other for a long time, and it seems that they have been admitted to the first level. Even if they pay less for uniforms and books for a year, the tuition fee alone will be at least 70 yuan.

But this is a private matter after all, and Bao Guowei has no control over it.Maybe someone dug up an ancestral gold bar in the ancestral house, and the family got some windfall.

The group of girls in the classroom of Grade [-] was relatively quiet. Most of them were reading silently in their seats. A few extroverts were just talking quietly to their classmates.

Moving the books upstairs, the two of them dropped the basket of books onto the podium with a "thud" sound. Guo Chun looked very tired, with his hands on his hips and panting.

Bao Guowei remembered what Mr. Shen said and knocked on the table. All the students present looked at him.

"Next, math textbooks will be distributed. Mr. Shen asked everyone to preview the math books as soon as they get them."

No one answered, which was normal. After all, the people present were all female students, and they were strangers to him.

After handing out the textbooks, Bao Guowei did not go back to move the books. Instead, he sat in his seat and began to read mathematics books, wondering what mathematics was taught in the Republic of China.

The new provincial textbook "General Catalog of Geometry" is printed at the beginning. It seems that it is not the only mathematics textbook. Open Chapter 1 and it will be trigonometric functions. The next few sections will be followed by logarithmic functions and...

The content of mathematics in middle schools in the Republic of China is slightly different from that of later generations, but not significant, at least that is the case in the textbooks of new-style schools.

Guo Chun suddenly became interested when he saw Bao Guowei flipping through his math textbook.

"Look, there is English everywhere in this textbook. If you flip through it to the back, the more English you read, the more English you read. At the end of the book, most of the pages are filled with pictures and letters of ghost symbols!"

"Yeah, yeah, it's like Western writing. It's difficult at first glance. Who can learn it?"

Bao Guowei agreed casually.

Other books were also handed out to the boys one after another. Bao Guowei opened the Gewu and found that the beginning of the book was about Newtonian mechanics, followed by optics and electricity, and the theory of relativity was mentioned in passing. Advanced academic...

As early as Einstein had published "Special Theory of Relativity" and "General Theory of Relativity" in 1905 and 1915 respectively.

The former article was published during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the latter article was published before the Manchu Qing elders tried to restore the monarchy.

Now it seems that "The Theory of Relativity" has been generally recognized by the academic community.

Looking through the chemistry book again, the beginning is the periodic table of elements. Looking back, it is full of chemical equations, including but not limited to the methods of making explosives, longevity ointments and other items.

Just reading these three books on mathematics, physics and chemistry is enough to confirm that this school is really good!

No matter how bad the students who are trained according to this kind of educational content are, they will not be worse than those useless scholars who are still addicted to the Four Books, Five Classics, and Eight-Part Essay.

After Bao Guowei browsed through it roughly, all the miscellaneous books were distributed.

Some people were busy putting books in the hole in the table and tidying them up.Guo Chun and Chen Jinhua placed books high in an attempt to block their husband's sight.

Bao Guowei wanted to say something to Guo Chun and Chen Jinhua: "What you block is not my husband's sight, but your future."

But Guo Chun comes from a family background, and even sleeping in class can't stop his future. Chen Jinhua said otherwise.
