Transmigrating To The Ming Dynastys Imperial Examination - Chapter 269
Now that Zhu Zhishan has no manuscripts to write, Cui Xie is reluctant to leave him alone, so he discusses with him: “When I kept my filial piety, I asked about acres and collected a set of farming books, which I will publish in a few days. These articles are written a bit in depth and are read by our scholars. People may not understand or use them. I have come up with a set of books that can be understood by real farmers, and Zhishan will help me.”
Zhu Zhishan smiled bitterly and said: “When I was at home, I had never seen real farming. It can be said that the four bodies are not diligent and the grains are not divided. You have to study for a few months when you teach me. How to write a farm book for Brother Cui?”
Cui Xie sighed, “I should have done these, but my articles are based on ancient literature in the Tang and Song Dynasties. They are too simple and simple, and the people are afraid that they would not like to read them. Zhishan is talented and witty, and wrote ” “Young Jinyiwei” is also liked by people in the south and north of the Yangtze River, so I have to use you.”
He looked at Zhu Zhishan with a doubt on his face, and took the initiative to explain: “I printed a 200,000-character Agricultural Economics, how many people can buy it and read it? It means that those who know a few words can buy it and see it. The large piece of writing looks boring, so I just throw it away. I want to draw this kind of method into a comic book that people love to read, or even a storyteller’s book, so that people are willing to listen first, and then after listening. Maybe there is something to try.”
Although he had presented these methods to the emperor, he did not guarantee that they would be implemented everywhere. But if you start with the people and let the people know this technology first, some people are interested, try it out, see the results, and will naturally use it in the future. And those neighbors who watched the trial users increase production and income will follow suit.
Zhu Zhishan still wrinkled his eyebrows and asked: “Then how should I write? You want me to write you the manuscript of the drawing book. It’s okay. I never thought about writing the talking book.”
It doesn’t matter. There are many folk artists in the “Qingcha” chain of Cui’s family. Give them comics and they will naturally adapt them.
Choi Xie smiled and said, “Have I ever made Zhishan embarrassed? I already have an idea of how to write this thing. You can add it to it. In short, you just want to attract people.”
These agricultural knowledge, no matter how good the color paper is, no matter how beautiful the design is, the printing will be as boring. He intends to incorporate the planting techniques he has developed into stories that the people like to hear, and make a set of popular science picture books on agricultural knowledge similar to picture books for children’s literacy.
For example, a poor mountain man who was too old to marry a wife, occasionally caught a few piglets in the mountains, fed the pigs with acorns, soybean meal, and cotton meal mixed with boiled cabbage, and cleaned the pigsty every day. , Sprinkle lime outside the circle for disinfection. By scientifically feeding and preventing the epidemic, by the end of the year, he bred two hundred jin of big pigs. After a few years, he became a wealthy family. Later, he married his wife and had children, and his grandchildren were full.
For example, a girl in a mountain village is diligent and capable. She raises chickens in bamboo cages at home, allowing chicken manure to leak under the bamboo cages, and does not allow outsiders to easily approach the chicken coop. They are often disinfected with lime water, so that chickens are less sick. The family is rich and rich, the brothers can read books, and the girl is married to a handsome talent.
For example, a harvest in a certain place is about to be harvested, but there is a plague of locusts. The new county magistrate sought the gods, and an old **** asked him in the middle of the night with a dream to teach him how to eliminate locusts. Locusts tend to lay eggs in marshes in summer, and their eggs are shallow, but in winter they are deep underground. There are pits on the ground, and the extinction can be found by turning over the soil. The prefect immediately ordered people to find the breeding grounds of locust flies, burn their eggs, and ate roasted locusts together with the local people, which calmed the famine. Therefore, Shoufu took a fancy to him and married his daughter…
Before he waited for another example, Zhu Zhishan stopped him, waved his hand and said, “Isn’t this a ghost story? Although I haven’t written this, I have read it a lot. It is much easier than “Young Jinyiwei”. But in this case, we can publish dozens or hundreds of books in Wuzhou every year. I am afraid that not so many people will read them.”
well said! Comrade Zhu Zhishan already has the initiative to take the initiative to consider for their publication!
Cui Xie’s eyes lit up and he stood up and patted the table: “Zhishan’s word to alert me! Although Zhishan’s talent can write even tacky articles, but let’s do this to help more people. If we know the technology written in the book, we might as well borrow a background…”
With the background of the popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Water Margin, Shuo Yue or Jin Yiwei, can we add these stories to celebrities?
The story can be edited whatever he wants, as long as he can insert the technical implementation process. If Zhu Zhishan really doesn’t know how to write the popular science content, he will leave a blank space for him to write, and finally he will revise it.
The predecessors of Hanlin collaborated in this way when they wrote the scripts for the Jinyiwei Academy and the comic strip. Only when Zhu Zhishan came to catch up with the new project, he always did it alone. In the future, there will be more fresh talents to join, and he has to learn to separate different plot lines according to the characters, and he will be responsible for one or several lines, and then cooperate with his colleagues to collect the book.
Zhu Zhishan thought of Cui Xie’s 200,000-character agricultural book, and sincerely hoped that Tang Yin, Du Mu, and Wen Zhengming would enter Beijing, and even more hope that Li Mengyang, whom Wang Shouren valued, could join in immediately.
Wang Shouren did not disappoint him either. Within two days, he approached Li Mengyang and asked him bluntly: “Brother Xianji knows the disciple of Duke Xiya, Cui Xie, Cui Hezhong, the 23-year champion of Chenghua?”
of course I know.
Li Mengyang entered the court from Cong, no, after the 23rd year of Conghua’s Chun Wei, he heard the name Cui Xie not much. In his life full of talents and outstanding learning, only this five-yuan background, he met the teacher as an examiner when solving the test, and could not hold a senior who was Xieyuan, so that he could feel that his literary talent was in front of him. There is no place for application.
He established his world based on poetry and essays, but Cui Xie published books to teach this group of scholars.
And Cui Xie’s literary talent is not weaker than others. Those pilot-test articles were indeed very beautifully written, not as dilute and weak nowadays, they were quite simple and generous, which suits his wishes. It’s a pity that this person rarely writes ancient essays. What he sheds is a period of cultural art. After the middle exam, he became obsessed with compiling imperial examination books. He only occasionally published one or two paragraphs of answers or test experience in the book.
He had read those books during Hongzhi’s Five-Year Provincial Examination, and then he knew why he failed in the previous examination.
He originally thought that those famous notes were just collections of works such as “Jinghua Richa”, “Idea”, and “Outline”. The book covers of the Imperial College and the Hanlin Masters were just random borrowing of names. He relied on his own talent, and he didn’t even bother to look at other art making routines. Once a friend wanted to borrow him to read it, he even wrote a few poems and satirized the set of books, which made his friends leave ashamed and almost broke off with him.
It was not until later that he joined Yang Yiqing’s school and was given a set of “Imperial Examination Must-Read Series” by his mentor. He didn’t realize his narrow-mindedness-that was really a famous teacher, and it was the interpretation of Scripture by court ministers. After the handouts, specific questions and answers are also attached, so that people can make questions to verify whether they really understand the content of the book.
There are Cui Xie’s words in those answers, which are as clear and concise as ever, but they don’t have the rushing momentum in the test article, which is not enough.
He was interested in seeing Cui Xie, but when he entered Beijing for the exam in Hongzhi six years ago, this senior had already returned to his hometown to keep his filial piety, and he has not returned until now…
Li Mengyang grabbed his thoughts and asked Wang Shouren, “Boan asks, is there a chance to show me this Cui Shi?”
Wang Shouren smiled slightly: “It’s not just to see, don’t we have to talk about articles when we are together with scholars? Brother He Zhong wrote a lot of new articles in the countryside, and the “Prose to Returning to the Land” sent to me is just one of the most inconspicuous. He There are a few articles that are truly famous enough to be handed down to the world. They are novel in layout and in-depth content. They have never been published before. I have read them again and again, and it can be described as a scholar of the country!”
He spoke truthfully and was not exaggerated, but he was far from the masterpiece that Li Mengyang had imagined.
Li Mengyang has read “Returning to Tian Fu”, and he has realized that he is utterly absurd and comfortable, and he has the atmosphere of chaos, and he wants to know what these articles called Wang Shouren boasted.
With expectation in his chest, he promised: “As long as Cui Shi talks about calling, Mengyang will push others away and go to his appointment.” After saying a few words, he thought of several friends who shared his own ambitions in poetry. , Asked: “Can I invite the two virtuous brothers, Bian and Wang, to go with me? And the virtuous brother Li Bozheng. He is the son of Lord Xi Ya and must be familiar with Cui Shixiang. Let’s have a literary meeting and talk about poetry and articles. Not lively?”
As he spoke, he seemed to see a trace of pity in Wang Shouren’s eyes, but the trace of emotion was like his illusion, and soon disappeared.
Wang Shourens mouth was still smiling, and he replied: “I also think that the two virtuous brothers, Bian and Wang, are outstanding, but Li Bozheng does not need to invite him. Brother and Zhong have already been to his house when they entered Beijing. Close, if you invite him, it will not be convenient for us to talk at the essay.”
He had personally experienced the feeling of discovering that his father was the author of his favorite comic strip, and he didn’t want Li Zhaoxian to experience it too.
Moreover, it is useless to call Li Zhaoxian. Cui Xie is very principled. There is only one father and son in a family, just like the ancient famous generals and soldiers, they will never use both father and son.
Wang Shouren made this appointment with him, and he helped Bian Gong and Wang Jiusi get together. Among the two talented men, Bian Gong had a slightly softer temperament, but Wang Jiusi was arrogant, and he was not willing to meet those who were not outstanding in poetry. However, Li Mengyang’s talents made them fall in love, and both of them only followed his intentions. No matter how they felt that Cui Xielue had no poetic talent, he was not of their talented generation, and agreed to meet.
But they agreed, and Cui Xie couldn’t spare any time for a while.
As soon as he handed the reinstatement application to the staff, there was a servant in the palace to deliver the decree, ordering other officials to reinstate their duties and quickly return to work. Whatever three days of vacation, one day is gone. The emperor Hongzhi couldn’t wait to see him and asked the **** of the Siyuan Bureau to come and discuss with him the new hybrid soybean technology being tested.
