The excerpt from Young China said that a group of people listened in confusion and understood some, but not much. The people at the pharmacy took the lead in applauding. I don’t know if they really understood, or if they were simply enlivening the atmosphere.
"To put it simply, your children are the future. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. The purpose of our school is to make each generation stronger than the last."
"Today you are proud of the school, and tomorrow the school will be proud of you."
"Okay, the rest of the time will be left to Medical Officer Wu, who will make up for it."
After pretending to leave, it doesn't matter what Lao Wu said. It's big and empty. Metaphysically, he can just say it himself. Listening to others is asking for trouble.
After several days of preparation, Wu You had done enough homework and his speech was more marketable than Zheng Xiong's. As if accustomed to applause, there was continuous applause and loud cheers.
Wu You has done the doctor's squat, but there is nothing new. He just follows the same example, talking big words, empty words, and clichés. After saying this, they each introduced their glorious history. The selected one said that according to Zheng Xiong's instructions, it showed that the pharmacy's teachers were strong, and the pharmacy itself was even more admirable.
After a hard day, parents and students dragged their exhausted bodies back home in confusion.
Who am I and where am I? It seems that I have sent my child to school. Why does it feel like I have received the baptism of knowledge?
The next day, the frightened parents took their children to the school and handed them over to the pharmacy.
The brand-new tables and chairs made a group of ignorant children happy, and they had no idea what the upcoming life would bring to them. The temporary teacher of the pharmacy, also the doctor of the pharmacy, assigned seats.
Then there was nothing more. A group of people stared at each other, looking at me and others. They couldn't bear it anymore, so they picked up the medical book and started reading.
The children gradually started to make noises and jump up and down. The doctors were in a dilemma, so they had to take out their universal weapon, the ruler, and slap it hard on the table.
"Shut up and listen carefully. Anyone who continues to talk will be beaten with a ruler."
Seeing this situation, the children still went their own way until the chicken to scare the monkeys appeared. After the king of the atmosphere group was beaten, the order of the school returned to normal and the chanting continued.
The noisy sound disappeared, and the doctor continued to read medical books.
"Sir, what is a white tiger?"
"White tiger has many meanings. The white tiger in our pharmacy is a kind of white raw gypsum, which is very useful for relieving lung heat."
"What about the other white tigers?"
"Other white tigers are just white tigers."
"What does a white tiger look like?"
"Yes~~, ask your father, I don't know."
"I don't know how to teach us. Why don't I just learn from my father?"
…
"Tie Ling, there's no way to teach them. Let's not talk about whether we have the time. These stupid kids alone have tormented us a lot, let alone not knowing how to read, so we can't teach them."
The subordinate with a sad face and tears in his eyes stood aside and told his grievances.
"Why are you bothering me? What is the ruler in your hand for? Don't you know how to beat me?"
"It can take care of things for a while, but after that it's still like this, so it's useless."
"That means you didn't hit hard enough. Just hit the palm of your hand. Just hit it a few more times and it will be fine."
"If you beat them like this, will they be damaged? Will their parents come to make trouble?"
Touching the palm of his hand, memories flooded into Zheng Xiong's mind.
"What are you afraid of? This is how I came here. Hitting the palm of your hand is nothing. Stir-fried meat with bamboo shoots is normal. There is no reason why I can get through here, but they can't."
"You don't have enough time, so teach them how to read first. There are a lot of talented people. Go and invite some of them to come over and learn them from the basics. If they learn well, they will be taught by you."
"Thanks for asking for it, we'll go look for it now."
The soldiers were divided into four groups, and the doctors dispersed one after another to invite the gentleman who could read and write.
When they heard that the pharmacy was recruiting teachers to teach, they were very enthusiastic. Zheng Xiong still had some prestige among the public, and the circle of scholars also targeted Zheng Xiong. There is a huge gap between scholars and scholars, a class difference.
Although Jinshi has a high starting point, it is more realistic to be promoted. Moreover, Zheng Xiong's official position is not low, and his achievements are no worse than those of Jinshi.
It’s just teaching, let alone Huimin Pharmacy, so they all agreed.
The doctor at the pharmacy was completely relaxed, studying on his own, studying on his own, and letting the children mess around.
As a result, after waiting for three days, no one came to report. The doctors at the pharmacy couldn't sit still and visited them one by one to ask why.
It has no effect. The better ones can open the door to welcome guests without saying a word, and the worst ones can drive people away with a broom.
The doctors returned to the pharmacy dejectedly.
"We asked about the withdrawal, but they were very strict and didn't reveal any information."
Someone is definitely trying to mess with me. Things that were going well in the first place have gone south. Someone is definitely up to something.
Zheng Yiyan's reminder echoed in his ears, and the successive setbacks since the school started also confirmed that these events were unusual.
If the problem of literacy is not solved, there will be no way to systematically solve the problem of talent pool in pharmacies. To learn from others, it takes talent to be better than others.
If you don’t teach, you won’t teach. Without Butcher Zhang, he wouldn’t be able to eat hairless pork.
Let the doctor from the pharmacy take the lead first, and Zheng Xiong, who was ignited with fighting spirit, began to write a dictionary, including pinyin, radicals, and simplified Chinese characters. I started to retreat, leaving early and coming back late every day, focusing on writing the dictionary.
Simplified Chinese characters existed very early in history. Simplified Chinese characters refer to the simpler common characters that are popular among the masses and have not been sorted out or improved. Since they are popular writing methods among the people, they are more eclectic, and one character may be written in several ways.
The large increase in simplified characters after the Tang and Song Dynasties was mainly due to the invention and promotion of printing. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, with the production of popular literary works, simplified characters emerged in large numbers. These simplified characters have been popular among the people for eight or nine hundred years, but they have no legal status. Various feudal dynasties regarded the folk simplified characters as "vulgar" and "broken", making it difficult for them to be refined.
The evolution of men has its own trends. Zheng Xiong is different. The ordinary simplified characters may be just for the convenience of writing, but adding pinyin makes it completely different.
Laziness is human nature. The popularity of simplified Chinese characters is essentially laziness, including modern technology and service-oriented, which is to use this characteristic to make money.
However, the most important effect of adding simplified Chinese characters to pinyin is literacy. The literacy achievements of hundreds of millions of people in future generations are still before our eyes. One life is two, two is three, three is all things, and there is no end.
