Meishan Su family, Su Yun is the most virtuous

Chapter 387 The scene of the prosperous Tang Dynasty!

He Zheng traveled all the way day and night, and after many hardships, he finally arrived at Yan'an Prefecture.

When he stepped into Yan'an Prefecture, he felt that the scene before him was completely different from what he had seen in other places in the northwest along the way.

The soldiers at various checkpoints in Yan'an Prefecture were gentle and polite when checking passers-by, and the order was well maintained. There was no trace of the chaos of random harassment and extortion that occurred elsewhere.

Passing by some markets, the streets are wide and clean, with shops lining both sides and the sounds of hawking one after another, making it very lively.

The street stalls are filled with a wide variety of goods, especially many exquisitely made industrial products that can't even be found in the mainland!

Not only are there local specialties, but there are also many rare items from the Western Regions, Tibet and other places, which shows the prosperity of the trade here.

He Zheng noticed that most of the shop signs were brand new and well-made, with neat and clear handwriting, exuding a vigorous and uplifting atmosphere.

He went deeper and deeper and finally arrived at the city of Yan'an. After entering, he saw a bustling crowd, but it did not seem messy.

The people were smiling, talking to each other, and carrying the daily necessities they had just purchased in their hands.

An old vegetable seller greeted He Zheng enthusiastically: "Young Master, come and have a look at my fresh vegetables. They are all grown in my own vegetable garden. They are sweet and delicious!"

He Zheng leaned over to take a look and saw that the vegetables were juicy and tender. Compared with the vegetables in Luoyang market that looked a little wilted due to long-distance transportation, the quality was much better.

He Zheng was not in a hurry to look for his former teachers and fellow students of the Su Society, but looked around in the city.

Continuing forward, He Zheng arrived at a school. The school gate was open and the sound of reading could be heard from inside.

He walked in curiously and saw that the classroom was full of students of varying ages, but all of them were energetic and listening attentively to the teacher's lecture.

The teacher on the podium spoke eloquently, explaining the practical knowledge of the world and interacting with the students from time to time, and the atmosphere was lively.

He Zheng couldn't help but think of Luoyang Prefecture School. Although there were also students studying hard, the teaching content was mostly limited to the imperial examinations.

What the students here learn are all practical knowledge closely related to people's livelihood, military affairs, commerce, etc.

He Zheng came to the vicinity of the government office again, and saw that there was an endless stream of people coming to do business, but everything was in order.

The officials are conscientious and responsible in their work, listen patiently to the people's demands and handle them promptly.

He heard a commoner who came to handle household registration affairs sigh to others: "Under the governance of the Su Society, our Yan'an government office has really changed.

In the past, if you wanted to get things done, you had to beg everyone for help, and even then you might not get it done.

Now, as long as the formalities are complete, it can be done quickly, and the officials are nice and considerate, they really care about us, the people!"

He Zheng's heart was touched.

As night falls, the streets of Yan'an Prefecture are still brightly lit.

At the night market, various snack stalls exude enticing aromas, people are either tasting delicious food or enjoying acrobatic performances, and laughter and joy echo in the night sky.

He Zheng sat in a tavern, ordered a pot of wine and some side dishes, and listened to the conversations of the diners around him.

What people talked about was not the corruption of the court and the tension of the war, but the abundance of life, plans for the future, and praise for the governance of the Su Society.

"Mr. Su is truly a great benefactor to our Yan'an Prefecture! Since he came, our lives have been getting better and better."

"Yes, it not only provides us with a livelihood, but also builds schools so that our children can read books and learn the truth."

"I heard that Mr. Su is still planning more good things to make our Yan'an Prefecture the most prosperous and stable place in the northwest."

He Zheng listened to these words and felt deeply moved.

The Yan'an Prefecture before us was a place of peace and prosperity, with great vitality. It was not only far superior to other places in the northwest, but even a prosperous place like Luoyang seemed difficult to compare with it in terms of political clarity and people's well-being.

He became more and more convinced that his journey was worthwhile, and that this place might really be the hope for China's future as rumored.

Just as he was thinking, he heard a familiar and kind voice behind him: "Zijun!"

He Zheng turned around suddenly and saw a young man in a green shirt walking towards him quickly.

He Zheng took a closer look, his eyes instantly moistened, and he blurted out: "Mr. Zhou!"

The person who came was Zhou Xingji, his former student at Su Xuehui in Luoyang. Zhou Xingji was no longer the young man he used to be. His face was much thinner but his eyes were bright and he was full of energy!
Zhou Xingji walked up to He Zheng, looked him up and down, his eyes full of joy: "Zijun, you are finally here."

He Zheng excitedly held Zhou Xingji's hand, his voice trembling slightly: "Sir, I have always been thinking about you.

Although the Su Xuehui was banned in Luoyang City, students' belief in Su Xuehui never wavered.

I have heard about all the things in Yan'an Prefecture and have come here to investigate."

Zhou Xingji smiled and took He Zheng to a quiet tea stall next to the library, where they sat opposite each other.

The tea stall owner enthusiastically served two cups of fragrant tea.

Zhou Xingji picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "You must have seen the scenery of Yan'an Prefecture along the way. What do you think?"

"The government is in order and the people are harmonious. It's full of vitality! It's just like the prosperous Tang Dynasty!" He Zheng exclaimed.

Zhou Xingji nodded and smiled, "The current state of Yan'an Prefecture is the result of everyone's concerted efforts led by Mr. Su.

Suzhou learning has taken root, blossomed and borne fruit here, benefiting the people." He Zheng also picked up the teacup, thinking: "Sir, everything I have seen and heard along the way is inspiring.

The political stability and social harmony here are in stark contrast to Luoyang and other places.

Students increasingly feel that Su Xue is the hope for saving the Song Dynasty. "

Zhou Xingji looked at He Zheng firmly, "Zijun, I'm very happy that you can come.

Now Yan'an Prefecture needs people of insight like you. The ideal of Su Shi is not only to make the people rich, but also to make China rise in this chaotic world and regain its glory. "

He Zheng nodded heavily: "Sir, I am willing to follow Mr. Su and you and fight for the ideals of Suxue.

In Yan'an Prefecture, students will do their best to contribute their own strength. "

Zhou Xingji said happily: "That's the best. Your coming here may be the happiest thing for me today..."

The two had a pleasant conversation, talking about the past of the Luoyang Su Society, the current development of Yan'an Prefecture, and the outlook for the future.

"Zijun, let's go meet Mr. Su. He will definitely be happy to see you."

He Zheng was surprised to hear this and said, "Can I see Mr. Su?"

Zhou Xingji smiled and said, “Of course, Mr. Su would like to meet a talent like Zijun.

However, Zijun, don’t call me Mr. from now on. I am even younger than you, so I am not worthy of being your Mr. From now on, we are just comrades!”

……

In the study of the Yan'an government office, Su Yun was reviewing various documents at his desk with a focused look.

At this time, Wang Baopu walked in hurriedly, with an unconcealed excitement on his face: "Sir, there is another good news!
The number of students from the Su Society who have come to seek refuge has increased dramatically in recent days. According to incomplete statistics, hundreds of them have arrived in the vicinity of Yan'an Prefecture and are on their way. "

Su Yun put down the pen in his hand, raised his head, and a trace of relief flashed in his eyes: "This is all thanks to the official report.

Today, our official newspapers have spread like wildfire, spreading across all prefectures and counties, spreading the ideas of Su Xue and the reforms of Yan'an Prefecture, and attracting many students to yearn for it. "

Wang Baopu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, sir. These students come from all corners of the country. They are passionate about Suzhou learning. Many of them also brought local news and insights, which will be of great help to us in quickly digesting Yan'an Prefecture and consolidating our foundation."

Su Yun nodded slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "We must seize this great opportunity, not only to make these students who come here to seek refuge have a place to use their talents, but also to increase the efforts to cultivate talents in Yan'an Prefecture, especially those from poor families.

They come from poor families and know the sufferings of the common people. If they can receive Su's education, they will surely become the backbone of our revitalization of Yan'an Prefecture and even change the situation of the Song Dynasty in the future."

Wang Baopu looked determined: "What you said is absolutely right. We can add more dormitories on the basis of the existing school and expand the enrollment scale.

At the same time, we will select a group of teachers with both moral integrity and talent to teach the children from poor families, teach them in accordance with their aptitude and tap their potential.”

Su Yun continued, “In addition, new students who come here should be properly accommodated.

First, they were arranged to have an in-depth understanding of the current situation and development plan of Yan'an Prefecture, and then assigned to different departments for internship and training according to their respective expertise.

Let them learn through practice and combine Soviet theory with practical affairs. "

Wang Baopu quickly took out a pen and paper and wrote down Su Yun's instructions one by one: "I understand, and I will make sure this matter is properly arranged.

Also, sir, should we set up some reward mechanisms to encourage students to be proactive and make more contributions to the development of Suxue?"

Su Yun smiled slightly: "This plan is feasible. For students with outstanding performance, whether they are trained locally or come from other places, they should be given material and spiritual rewards.

Scholarships may be established to support those who have made outstanding achievements in academics and practice;
Those who put forward innovative ideas and make significant contributions to the development of Yan'an Prefecture can be awarded honorary titles and set an example. "

Just then, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. It turned out that Zhou Xingji brought He Zheng to ask for a meeting.

When Su Yun saw He Zheng, he saw that he had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and he looked very handsome. He knew at first glance that he was a young talent. His eyes lit up immediately: "Uncle Gong, this young talent is..."

Zhou Xingji quickly introduced: "Sir, this is He Zijun from Luoyang whom I mentioned to you. After hearing about the situation in Yan'an Prefecture, he came all the way here!"

He Zheng stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "I am the student He Zheng, meeting Mr. Su. I am willing to do my best to promote the development of Su's school in Yan'an Prefecture."

Su Yun smiled and stood up, helping He Zheng up: "Welcome, Zijun. Yan'an Prefecture is in need of ambitious young talents like you.

You came at the right time. We were just discussing matters concerning talent cultivation and development. What do you think about this?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Baopu and Zhou Xingji beside them pricked up their ears. They all understood that this was a small test from the master to He Zheng.

He Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Sir, after entering Yan'an Prefecture, I have seen many of the measures taken by the Su Society, and they are all very effective. There is no need to modify the general direction.

However, there are some details that can be added. Students think that in addition to classroom education, various academic exchange activities can also be organized to allow students to learn from each other and make progress together.

At the same time, we will strengthen cooperation with folk craftsmen and merchants, so that students can learn practical skills and business methods to better serve the construction of Yan'an Prefecture."

Su Yun nodded with satisfaction after hearing this: "Not bad, you have a unique insight. In the future, you will participate in the affairs of talent development with Shouzhen. I hope you can give full play to your strengths and contribute to the growth of the Su Society."

He Zheng responded excitedly: "I will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Su Yun smiled and nodded.

With a steady stream of students from the Su Society coming here, the speed of digesting Yan'an Prefecture has become much faster!
