I am engaged in construction in Datang

How could You Qianniu pay attention to these things? He just talked about the planning of the new city.

"General, can the Western Regions really be destroyed?" Zhao An continued, "Is it too early to plan a new city now?"

"Not early!" You Qianniu had seen guns and equipment and knew how powerful those things were.

Not to mention the Western Regions, even if they go south and west, they can take them all, as well as Goguryeo, Japan, etc...

All alone.

"Isn't it early? It's better that it's not early." Zhao An didn't say anything else.

As the Tang Dynasty grew stronger, this city was bound to be eliminated. Many old soldiers were cheering, crying and laughing.

He knew the truth, but...

Zhao An was a man of few words, so he remained silent and the Right Captain Li Xinghuai followed him.

The two had a long talk and agreed to send someone to pick up the veteran home a week later.

Different situations require different responses.

For example, for those who want to return to their hometown, the government will tell the village head that there are support policies for this group of veterans, and the government will also send people to check on them from time to time.

If the care is good, the village can apply for other subsidies.

Who doesn’t want this?

……

When Qu Wentai was starving his horses and feeding his sheep in Gaochang, the spring imperial examinations held every three years in the Tang Dynasty were about to begin. (There were many subjects to be examined in the Tang Dynasty, and the imperial examinations were held almost every year, but the imperial examinations for the Jinshi degree were held every three years.)

They are all juren who have passed the provincial examination. Although they failed in the metropolitan examination, they are at least experienced.

The imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty was different from that in later periods. Candidates did not have to spend the night in the examination room. They entered at 1 a.m. and left at 0.50 p.m. every day until all subjects were completed.

Female village.

Li Yin looked at the 113 sets of pens, inks, paperweights and water drops that had been prepared, feeling very pleased.

This kind of thing has to be specially customized. If the students are asked to prepare it themselves, it will be a headache. In this way, the village will directly help prepare it, saving a lot of effort.

Tomorrow those darlings will take the imperial examination. When they fail...

Hey!

The results will be announced in March, and the policy of additional points for teaching in remote areas will also be introduced. Wang Dahai’s second apprentice has already taken his people to Hebei Province.

I believe that compulsory education can be popularized on a small scale starting this fall.

"No, I can't think like that." Li Yin shook her head. How could she expect everyone to fail the exam?

Then wouldn’t all the hard work she put in to lead everyone in predicting the questions and practicing the exercises be in vain?

"If someone makes the list, there will always be someone who fails. Since someone fails, Hebei Province will not have to worry about the number of teachers." Li Yin lowered her eyes: "We don't even need that many."

"I don't know how the work of Lao Yan is going. It has been more than half a year."

"The owner of the village."

Li Xiaochun came in from outside the door: "Your brother is here, and so is Yan Shaojian."

"really?"

Li Yin couldn't believe it: "Is this what it means to say "Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived?"

"Please come in quickly!"

That's a hot Chinese dictionary.

Although there is a simplified version in the village, it is not very spreadable. If it is to be popularized, it will waste labor costs.

"Stepsister."

Li Shimin came with Yan Shigu, both of them holding a pile of books in their hands.

"Brother, why did you think of the village today? Isn't the Spring Examination tomorrow?"

During the imperial examination period, Li Shimin was so free!

"Yes, but the work is already done by others, so I have nothing to do."

Now there are more and more things to do, and he used to do everything himself, so his overtime work of one or two hours at the beginning gradually increased to three or four hours.

The advent of clocks made time more precise, but it also made him bald.

He continued to work overtime until one day when he suddenly came to his senses and discovered that a blue light was appearing in the sky.

After this, Li Shimin knew that if he continued like this, he would be completely gone.

"When my stepsister was lying in bed, she often said that people should learn to balance work and rest, and learn to ask others for help. Now I understand these principles."

As he said this, Li Shimin sighed: "It is really a pleasure to let others do the work."

"!?"

Li Yin was suddenly shocked. It seemed that something was wrong with Old Li.

What a dangerous situation!

"Brother, I still feel that people should use their hands to create value in their lives. If all the work is left to others, then what should I do?"

Li Shimin nodded continuously and agreed, "Indeed, my sister's idea really coincides with mine."

Now he reviews memorials every day. Although he is not as diligent as before, he still creates value and becomes happy, killing two birds with one stone.

"Brother...you know what I mean." Li Yin said softly.

"Ahem." Li Shimin changed the subject.

"Let's not talk about that. I'm here today for the dictionary." His expression became serious, and he handed the dictionary to Li Yin: "Sister, there are two editions of the dictionary, one simplified, and one with current words."

"If two sets of characters are implemented in the Tang Dynasty, will there be a language barrier?"

"Brother, don't worry. I, the people of the Tang Dynasty, was born with a special ability that can automatically translate traditional Chinese characters into simplified Chinese..."

"How could it be!" Yan Shigu was surprised.

He had been learning more complex fonts since elementary school, so he was not able to recognize simplified characters and traditional characters, and was unable to appreciate the wonder of simplified characters.

"Young Master Yan, if you don't believe me, you can call the tenants in the farm and ask them."

"They have never learned traditional Chinese characters. You can try to see if he can read traditional Chinese books."

Yan Shigu couldn't help but be curious and called out to a man passing by.

"Do you know this word?"

"Isn't this a horse?" The man immediately recognized it and said, "Yours is traditional Chinese, it looks too complicated."

Yan Shigu was silent for a moment, then continued, "What about this?"

"Happy Le."

After saying that, the other party turned around and went back to work.

"..." Yan Shigu was completely confused: "Master Li, is that a man of extraordinary ability?"

"You think he looks very powerful?"

As soon as Li Yin finished speaking, Li Yingwu turned his head sharply and complained loudly: "Master, I haven't gone far yet!"

"Excuse me!"

Li Yin was caught and blurted out: "Keep your voice down next time."

The corners of Li Shimin's mouth twitched slightly. They wanted to laugh but it seemed impolite. And what did that "I'm sorry" mean?

Could it be an apology?

Forget it, don’t worry about it, just take it as an apology.

"Brother, you can start printing the dictionary in large quantities. You must spread it throughout the ten regions of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Shimin nodded, this was planned from the beginning.

If you want to educate the people, reading and writing is the most crucial step, and pinyin is an important weapon to break down the barriers to reading.

"Unfortunately, there are too few people who spread the correct pronunciation and usage of Pinyin."

Li Yin poured another pot of hot tea for the two of them: "Is there any good way to spread the correct pronunciation of pinyin?"

When she was a child, the standard pronunciation of pinyin was not well spread. The Internet was not popular at that time, and many teachers learned the wrong pronunciation and could not spell the correct pronunciation of the characters.

For example, the word '波' (b) can be translated as '龟'.
