Chapter 740
Gan De couldn't help but feel a little lost.

Fortunately, the coachman quickly laughed at himself and said: "However, we gunners are all learning the skills of looking up meters, but we are not able to write them ourselves. Most of them are memorized by rote. The so-called practice makes perfect, and the one raised by Ji Shan Have you ever heard the story about the shot being called the one-handed familiar?"

This is a story made up by Si Shang, but everyone is making up stories at this time, making up many different stories for their own purposes, and over time it becomes the story of Zhu Xia.

Gan De thought to himself, why not be familiar with it?

However, the coachman said again: "Actually, we gunners are not as good as those in your school. Just like me, you are definitely not as good as me in shooting guns, but apart from shooting guns, you may not be able to use the things I learned. .”

"You don't need to know sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent to drive a car, and if you ask me to tell others about this knowledge, I don't know how to do it. Otherwise, I can be a teacher in the artillery school..."

Gan Deqi said: "Didn't you always say that everyone is equal, that everyone is equal, and that everyone has their own interests? There is no distinction between high and low. Isn't driving a car the same as being a gentleman?"

The coachman laughed and said: "Mr. is really joking. Human beings are naturally equal. He is also a human being as a gentleman, and I am also a human being as a coachman. Even a giant is also a human being. That is to say, the position is different. But driving the car in the wind and rain, It’s always different to be a teacher in the school every day.”

"However, I also know my own ability. If I talk about the division of virtuous people, I must have this ability."

Speaking of this, the coachman turned around and glanced at Gan De again, and said enviously: "Mentors like you who come to study from other places are generally capable. Just like the Qinyue people who cut off my arm, he His medical skills are excellent, there was no such doctor in Sishang before he came."

"Sir, since he learned the knowledge of others, he will be famous in the future. I heard that the calendar is being revised now. It is said that the current calendar is not very accurate, and some days will be staggered every few years. It is not sure that future generations will use it. When using the calendar, you still have to remember Mr.’s name..."

This retired gunner has been a coachman for several years. Although he is good at talking, he is not talking nonsense.

After a few words of praise, Gan De took advantage of it, and when he arrived at the place, he gave two extra copper coins.

When they arrived at the school, among the students in their preparatory class, there were quite a few characters that Gander had heard of before, including some bastard sons of big nobles, and some branches of small nobles, at least they were considered as scholars, because If they were ordinary people, they would not have the opportunity to learn and read in other places, and those who could come to Sishang were mostly such people.

And those who are local in Sishang cannot appear in the preparatory class.

Because of Sishang's cultural advantages, they, the children of the former elite, are just "preparatory" people in Sishang's new culture, and they don't have much influence within Sishang.

The internal composition of Sishang is very complicated, but overall there is a context to be found.

At the beginning, more than half of those who followed Mozi to do justice in the world were from the scholar class, and the remaining half were from the market.

At the very beginning, doing righteousness is a very high-level thing, and many people are proud of it, so they join in.

After Sishang began to promote the extremely cruel theories of struggle and contradictions, and Sishang began to advocate such things as equality, synonymousness and love, and began to change "the vigor and vigor of benefiting the world into the simplicity of benefiting the world, from asking injustice with a sword to stepping on it." After solidly rooting in Sishang Huaibei and going deep into the villages and markets", those who originally regarded Xingyi as a high-end style gradually lost interest in Mohism.

After that group of old Mohists gradually faded away, the newcomers from Sishang, a faction, rose up. Most of them came from the original peasants, businessmen, and because Sishang had no military meritorious titles or the system of confiscating land, they became Full-time bureaucrats and bureaucrats.

Scholars who originally regarded benefiting the world as a vigorous romance began to no longer yearn for Sishang; some foreign scholars who were speculative but not necessarily sincerely wanted to benefit the world began to pour in; The treatment of a group of foreign scholars who really recognized that they would be turned upside down.

With the improvement of Sishang's education system, Sishang no longer needs foreign scholars to serve as the local cultural class. With the monopoly of new characters and the theory of Tianzhi, the status of foreign scholars has become extremely embarrassing.

The old ruling techniques are no longer applicable to the new era, and the things that the old nobles have learned that were out of reach of ordinary people have become more and more meaningless.

It's like a scholar who knows how to fight with cars and focuses on formations with cars, and is of course a talent 30 years ago.But now in Sishang, they are not considered talents, they need to relearn, and they even have to stand on the same starting line as many others.

This made Sishang's current elite class and the old era's elite class almost split in a large area, and this also made the family inheritance of bloodline division of high and low status completely destroyed in Sishang.

The preparatory class in the university hall is mainly to leave a way for those outsiders who are speculators, pursue knowledge, or truly believe in Mohist morality and dedicate their lives to the world, and to prevent their own "Sishang" from appearing in Sishang. The national consciousness of "Shangzu" and implement the idea of ​​"love the world".

This kind of sudden leapfrog development is the easiest to destroy the noble inheritance, because the advantages accumulated by those noble inheritance are gone.

Gander came to the school only two months ago, and he deeply felt the separation and overturning.

These preparatory students are actually taught by local students in the university hall.

Some say that they don't have any skills, and it's just because they had a good silverfish family in the past, so they have the opportunity to be in the school. If they really went to school together since childhood, maybe they might not even be able to pass the middle school entrance examination.

It is also said that they occupy the places of Sishang locals. Otherwise, some of my classmates back then would not have been admitted to the university. On the contrary, these people occupied the few places.

There are also some complaints, saying that benefiting the world early is not as good as benefiting the world later, and benefiting the world late is worse than harming the world, saying that my parents followed Mo Zi and Qin Zishuai to fight for the benefit of the world, and in my own life I have to study hard to enter the university ;This group of foreign scholars disappeared when they benefited the world, but now they can still go to the university to study. In fact, that's the case when it comes to learning...

Although the above repeated orders and frequent meetings tried to make up for these splits, the actual effect was not significant.

Gan De is better, he is also from a Chou family. When his ancestors were rich, the ancestors of Zhou Wenwang were still in the northwest to catch slaves for merchants and pay tribute, and now they are only scholars.

However, some noble sons from other places were discriminated against by some people in the school. He had only been here for two months, and he saw with his own eyes a son of a well-known Wei family wrote a blood letter announcing that he had severed the old family relationship and declared No more money from "silverfish" at home.

In addition, Gander has another advantage that he is a science student, and many foreign disciples from noble backgrounds come to Sishang, most of them can only study liberal arts, because their foundation is really poor.

Sishang Mohists pursue the "Will of Heaven", equality, synonymous, universal love these things have been set, the remaining "Will of Heaven" lies in things like astronomy, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics, and everyone is proud of it.

Furthermore, with the development of government-run industry and commerce in Sishang, most of these science students can enter large-scale government-run industrial and commercial workshops and the army, and if those who study literature and history start from the grassroots, there are actually fewer jobs than those who study science.

Many aristocratic children may have spent several years learning rituals in their childhood before coming to Sishang. After learning, it is useless to come to Sishang. Those things of the official class's scholars are more likely to be in line with Sishang, and they suffer the least discrimination in the school.

There is a joke and saying in the school that people of noble origin are divided into three or six grades, and the more expensive the blood, the more useless it is. On the contrary, people of the scholar class, such as the Confucianism of the Lezheng family, can participate in the grammar revision.

There is also a joke that the place with the most expensive blood in the school is either in the Department of Western Regions or the Department of Music.

It is impossible for the army to allow these aristocratic disciples to intervene. This point is very strict. Besides, it is impossible for the locals in the military academy to accept these aristocratic children; the science subjects in the university hall need a sufficient foundation. The nobler the nobler the status, the worse the foundation It doesn't matter to Mr. Teacher, but the children of the big nobles who can come to Sishang are mostly full and want to benefit the world vigorously, so it is impossible to be willing to squat in the valley to teach.

Diplomacy is suitable, but it is divided into internal and external. The Mohists in Zhuxia's internal diplomacy have never observed any etiquette, especially after the power has grown, I am rude and proud. These noble children can't use it.

That is to learn the novelty brought by Solucan from the Far West, to learn the language of the Far West; or to learn music because there is a certain musical foundation.

Vaguely, Gan De felt that Shangxian in Sishang seemed to be shaping a new group of nobles, but it was completely reversed: the military, business, etc., were basically the disciples of the original peasants, businessmen, and businessmen in Sishang, and these were the military power and financial resources of the regime. ; but the Western Region language, which may be the least powerful music, is mostly the children of the old aristocrats.

It is nothing more than Sishang Shangxian, it seems that everyone is on the same starting line, at least it seems so now, and it is easy to turn the world upside down, completely reverse the original status, and make everyone have a hope, at least Hope and opportunity, it's scary.

Thinking about it again, it seems that only Sishang can do this in the world today: they have new culture, new knowledge, and new morality, everything is new, and they completely intangible the family advantages accumulated by the feudal system for hundreds of years. And radical changes have been implemented in Sishang so that there is enough opportunity for everyone.If not, without all the new culture, knowledge, and morality, even if the world is unified in the future, it will only be ruled by the descendants of those families, because the old things are developing slowly, and the most dominant families are those who have the most advantages.

Gan De thought to himself, this is really an upside-down of the sun and the moon. De thinks that even astronomy is just a tool used by Sishang to turn the world upside down. I am afraid that the giants on Sishang are not interested in it at all. If the universe is so vast and infinite, why would anyone give up their whole lives to study it? What kind of giant?
