The late Ming Dynasty in the living room

Chapter 28 Scholar’s ​​Revenge Secrets
The study class has become such a bear, including problems that the refugees themselves do not take seriously and problems caused by the scholar Yan Jingsheng.

For example, when Fang Yu was reprimanding two scumbags in the second and third year of high school, they talked about the faults of the scholar.

They said that the scholars stayed in the teacher's dormitory after class and were often distracted during class, which seriously affected their academic performance.

After asking many people, Fang Yu found that what the sophomores and seniors said was basically true. (The last sentence is pure fabrication)
It seems that this scholar spent too much time pondering the death poems and thus neglected teaching.

For example, he would assign homework every day, but he never asked students to hand in their homework, nor did he correct their homework.

Now that even Axiu has learned to skip homework, one can only imagine what Liu Ji, the sophomores, and seniors will be like.

How can we go on like this?

Fang Yu also expected them to go to Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, and Dorgon on his behalf to take a look. (It’s too dangerous, Fang Yu doesn’t want to go)

But what can a bunch of illiterate people do?

Therefore, Fang Yu had to take time out of his busy schedule to "supervise" the irresponsible teacher Yan.

After starting the conversation, Fang Yu's words now became a bit serious: "Scholar, as the saying goes, you use money to eliminate disasters. Some people use money to dig ditches, some people use money to make clothes, and some people use money to make clothes. When you get money, you should do your best to teach students well."

Yan Jingsheng's face turned red, and he felt that he had been insulted again.

Fang Yu ignored him and continued: "If you don't do things well, you should be punished, so I decided to check their academic performance regularly in the future. If too many people fail to meet the standards, I will deduct your monthly payment."

Yan Jingsheng hates hearing about "money" the most, it smells like copper!

He stood up with a roar and said with a sneer: "If my boss wants to take it away, just take it away. I, Yan Jingsheng, am a disciple of a saint. How can I care about those things that smell like copper!"

Fang Yu said unhurriedly: "Not only will the monthly payment be deducted, but after the deduction is completed, a penalty notice will also be sent to the family, explaining in detail the reason for the deduction... Alas, scholar, you are all alone here, I can't let you Your family thinks we are bullying you."

"you you you……"

Yan Jing's lips trembled with anger, and all the righteous and awe-inspiring aura he had before was gone.

Who else is his family member?Besides the talented lady, the only one left was his father-in-law.

With his father-in-law's temper, if he knew that he was being deducted from his work because of his indifference... there might be some kind of insult waiting for him!

Alas, the scholar is not even afraid of hanging, but his father-in-law is much scarier than hanging.

Yan Jingsheng's face turned pale and blue for a while, and finally he sat down dejectedly.

After the beating, it was time to get down to business. Fang Yu said gently: "Xiucai, in addition to fulfilling your duties as a teacher, you also have to pay attention to teaching methods."

As a good young man who had been punished by nine years of compulsory education, and with the words and deeds of his family teacher Pan, Fang Yu was still able to put forward some useful suggestions.

Yan Jingsheng said listlessly: "Please give me some advice, my boss."

Fang Yu said: "At the very least, every day's homework must be handed in, and you must correct it on the same day before sending it to them."

Then he continued: "Correcting homework should not only correct their mistakes, but also grade their homework."

"What is scoring?" Yan Jingsheng asked.

"You know Arabic numerals, right?"

The scholar nodded.

Although Arabic numerals were not popularized after they were introduced to the Central Plains from the Song Dynasty, scholars in the Ming Dynasty had a broad vision and all the scholars could write.

Fang Yu said: "That would be more convenient. You can grade them on a hundred-point scale." "For example, if someone's homework is neatly written and has no mistakes, then you give him 100 points, and if he can barely pass it, give him 60 points." , considered passing.

If someone is messing around and has lots of sloppy handwriting and typos, then he will be given a failing grade, or even 0 points. "

Yan Jingsheng thought for a while and seemed to think this was a good idea.

However, he soon discovered the flaw here. After thinking about it carefully, he shook his head: "They have no intention of learning. Even if they fail every day, they don't care."

In fact, although Yan Xiucai was obsessed with hanging himself, as a scholar, he still had basic professional ethics.

He also really wanted to teach these students well.

According to ancient social customs, these people would wear the identity of "Yan Jingsheng's disciples" when they go out. If they are lost, Yan Jingsheng will not be able to escape.

Don’t forget, Yan Jingsheng is the person who loves face the most!

Fang Yu nodded and said: "This requires the introduction of a reward and punishment mechanism. Just like the teachers in your academy beat people up, we can also punish those who are not serious."

Yan Xiucai shook his head after hearing this. If he dared to attack those refugees, he might be beaten up in the classroom.

Fang Yu also knew that Yan Jingsheng's biggest problem was his lack of authority, but he decided to step forward to support Yan Jingsheng.

And punishment does not necessarily require physical action.

Think about the tricks used by some schools in later generations to manipulate students. Just using any of them can make them want to die.

Fang Yu approached Yan Jingsheng and lowered his voice: "Those who don't hand in their homework and scribble on it, we can do this..."

Fang Yu mentioned a number of punishment measures, but Yan Jingsheng didn't take it seriously at first, and then his eyes started to light up.

Yan Jingsheng almost burst out laughing when he heard the last part.

Well... the reason why he was particularly happy was because he was thinking of a person, an enemy, in his mind at the moment.

And he, Yan Jingsheng, has now mastered an excellent way to deal with this person under Fang Yu's earnest guidance!
After Fang Yu finished talking to Xiucai, he hurried out the door.

Fang Yu is still very concerned about the education of the refugees. First of all, it is good for them to be able to read and write.

Secondly... everyone knows that people who have read work more efficiently than illiterate people. Or in future generations, even if you want to work in a factory to make screws, you will have to look at your academic qualifications first?

Of course, the second benefit is only incidental, mainly for themselves...really!
Therefore, in Fang Yu's plan, in addition to this "cultural study class for senior cadres", he should also open a night school for all refugees.

Let those refugee comrades who have been suffering all day long be able to receive the influence of knowledge even when they are tired.

But now, because of the scholar's incompetence, problems have arisen in the first step of the development of education. It is no wonder that Fang Yu has turned against the scholar.

Fortunately, Xiucai was still able to listen to suggestions, but... he seemed to be a little too excited in the end?
Perhaps in the scholar's heart, he really wanted to be a good teacher!

"What's going on with the Qiao family? Why hasn't construction started yet?"

Fang Yu and Old Man Zhao were standing together. In the distance was an open space behind the shanty town, and now there were several lines of people standing straight in the open space.

Fang Yu looked at the motionless people and asked Old Man Zhao.

According to the agreement between Mrs. Qiao and Fang Yu, they should build a large rice shop and a large open-air warehouse outside the city as soon as possible.

However, several days have passed now, and there is still no movement from the Qiao family, which is a bit strange.
