The young and old in the valley all started to move, not for anything else but because the commander ordered the children to start reading and literacy.
In the past, knowledge that was highly regarded and out of reach can now be learned for free by your own children. If you don’t contribute now, when will you wait?
The trees on the hilltop suffered once again.
Trees of varying thicknesses were cut down and split into planks or made into sandboxes.
Zhang Shuai said that all the words in "Jijiupian" should be written on the wooden signs one by one for everyone to learn. At the same time, each child must have a sandbox. When the master teaches again, the children can practice writing with wooden sticks in the sandbox.
The plan to make all ant soldiers literate was temporarily shelved, which made Dingshan, Sun Fu and others temporarily relieved.
It's not that the ant soldiers won't need to be literate in the future, but that Hong Jian can't teach them alone. Zhang Sheng discussed with him for a long time and came up with a solution: focus on teaching the children first. After all, the children are concentrated on time and don't need to participate in training. After the children have mastered common words, they will be sent to each village to teach the ant soldiers to read. In this way, the literacy time can be greatly shortened. At the same time, the ant soldiers can also learn according to the time and place. Best of both worlds.
"Da Hong, since we want to study, I think it's better to take up arithmetic together. From now on, children and soldiers can at least know how many acres of land they harvest at home? How much food will they need for a ten-day march?" Zhang Sheng He did not participate in other chores. At this moment, he was discussing the children's learning content with Hong Jian.
Needless to say about literacy, "Jijiu Pian" and "Fanjiang Pian" are next to each other. After learning these few chapters, at least the common words are enough for everyone. As for "Cangjie Pian", the idea of loyalty to the emperor is too obvious, so Zhang Sheng directly No.
Arithmetic, tentatively referred to as "Planning" and "Ninety-nine Chapters", mathematics is too closely connected with daily life, especially the four arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. You must learn to calculate the output and calculate the food and fodder for the army. As for mathematics, I don't want to end up raising a bunch of trash who only know a lot about it.
"Lang Jun, just be sure of this. I promise to teach them what I have learned without reservation." Hong Jian made a promise.
After a few days of blood recommendation, Hong Jian finally got the chance to stay in Ping Valley. Now, he cherishes this opportunity very much.
In the past two or three days, when he truly became a member of the valley and could walk around freely in the valley, he realized that it would be a matter of time before Wu Lu fell into the hands of the young man in front of him.
When Wulu was having fun in the Hutuo River Valley, he was training his soldiers all day long; when Wulu was debating whether to eat two meals a day or one meal a day for that little ration, he was debating three meals a day; If you add more water to the porridge of the thieves, their soldiers will basically be able to eat every meal; when Wulu and his wife are having a rough time at night, they will bring their own corps commander, captain, and village commander We are studying "Wu Sun Tzu's Art of War".
How can Wulu be invincible?
Now, while other bandit leaders are still thinking about burning, killing and looting, they have already considered teaching their soldiers literacy and arithmetic.
As time goes by, what will Zhang Yan compare with others?
From the moment he knew that Zhang Sheng asked him to teach the ant soldiers how to read, Hong Jian seemed to have seen Zhang Yan's ending. He was really glad that he walked into the flat valley instead of going to the valley in Neiqiu.
"Dahong, I've been thinking about it for a long time and I have something. Now take it out and let's study it and see if it can be done?"
As Zhang Sheng spoke, he wrote numbers from zero to ninety as well as arithmetic symbols such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division on the sand table.
More than a thousand years later, Asan was shouting everywhere that they invented Arabic numerals and spread them from Arabia to the world. They contributed the greatest zero to mathematics. Don’t you know that the real ancestor of Arabic numerals is the Chinese arithmetic system? The arithmetic system evolved. Chinese ancestors have already used zero, but it is represented by an empty box in the arithmetic system. But the Ah Sans were clumsy and made the squares round, so they shamelessly said that they were the ancestors of Arabic numerals.
Now, Zhang Sheng took out the Arabic numerals. He wanted to put an end to Ah San's thoughts and let them know that the roots of Arabic numerals are in China when the monks like Ah San come to China during the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
"Lang Jun, what is this?" Hong Jian looked at a bunch of numbers on the sand table and really didn't recognize them.
"Dahong, these are zero, one, two, three...nine, which correspond to our calculations. These symbols are addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and the equal sign. Now we have limited things to write, and the time to study is also very tight, so I made With these things, firstly, it can save writing materials. Secondly, it can save calculation time. In addition, calculations are also very convenient, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division..."
As Zhang Sheng spoke, he took the trouble to give Hong Jian examples one by one, from ten to hundreds and even thousands.
Hong Jian watched as the wooden stick in Zhang Sheng's hand was scratching on the sand table like a game. As he watched, his mouth slowly turned into an O shape. He found that this thing was indeed easier to use than arithmetic chips, and it was faster and more convenient to write and calculate. He didn't know whether Zhang Sheng's addition and subtraction of thousands digits was correct, but as far as tens and hundreds were concerned, others While explaining and demonstrating at the same time, the speed was actually not slower than my own mental arithmetic.
A thief, while fighting for his life, could actually figure out such a thing.
Amazing, really amazing, a genius!
Zhou Chuang, Wu Hu and other guards on the side also slowly opened their mouths again. They suddenly found that the leader they guarded every day was becoming more and more difficult for them to understand. He seemed to know a little bit about everything, as if he was born with it. .
Yes, you know it from birth.
For a few days, everyone was busy outside the cave. Zhang Sheng and Hong Jian dragged Shitou, Yu Zhong, Xu An, Zhou Chuang, Uncle Shan and others who came in from outside to work inside the cave.
As a future manager of Yanaka, you must understand simple arithmetic in the future. This thing now is a new thing that you have made by yourself. Everyone has no foundation, so let’s learn it together.
Zhang Sheng taught everyone the formulas and calculation methods of the four arithmetic operations, including addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, including mixed calculations with brackets.
Hong Jian, Shitou, Xu An, Zhou Chuang and other young people with flexible minds have basically mastered it. They set questions and compete with each other and are very excited to learn. However, the old men such as Uncle Shan and Uncle Bao have their brows furrowed into deep grooves. There are some who shake their heads, some who sigh, some who are intimidated, and some who give up halfway.
well……
Looking at these old men with gray or white hair, Zhang Sheng sighed secretly in his heart.
They were approaching the age of knowing their fate, not being confused, and in their 60s. They accepted that they should let them go. However, there is a shortage of manpower in the valley now. Until the new people grow up, they still have to be at the front for the time being.
Since we are at the front, and since we all have to go through a rough road together, then there are some things that can be learned, and I still hope that they can learn a little bit...
