733 March 15, seven years rain

Everything seemed to be calm, and this kind of calm has not been seen for a long time. It is both ordinary and abrupt. People in Jinling City picked up newspapers, and even the official newspapers did not have any interesting things, but just some articles, interviews and quotations. Those newspapers that are more likely to be entertained are filled with actors, actors, scholars and prostitutes.

The Jinling literary world without the Shuanghua Talks also seemed very quiet, as if everyone was busy with the resumption of work and production, even so busy that no one was going to do something.

However, when it comes to being busy, the various institutions of the entire Song Dynasty seem to be more busy than ever before. All departments are busy surrounding the upcoming full resumption. The chiefs of several major departments have not even returned home to sleep for several days.

The same is true in Hongwen Museum. After Beipo was ordered to compile several books of the "Demon-breaking Holy Sword" mentioned by Song Beiyun, the original handsome talent disappeared, and replaced by a crazy literary man with a flamboyant hair and a disheveled face.

He spent almost a year starting to learn all kinds of new knowledge. As the editor-in-chief of the three major rituals, the pressure on Beipo was much greater than that of anyone, because he knew that he not only wanted to inherit Confucius' skills, but also to continue and inherit new knowledge. If this thing could be done, it would be a glorious thing for the ages. Every clan of their family would be glorious because of him, and even the entire Luzhou would become more and more famous because of him.

"The popularization of science must be both accurate, stable and fast. Its benefits from the present and future generations." Beipo said to the first few consultants below: "A few days ago, I heard rumors of monsters outside the city, which made the people panic, saying that some monsters rushed into the shore and sucked people everywhere, and the local people were seriously lost. I encountered this situation for the first time since I majored in the Three Classics. After I sent someone to investigate, I found that it was not a water monster, but someone in the local area tried to collect the land at a low price and used this plan. However, although the rumors were full of errors, the people were still obsessed with it. This is the responsibility of popular science."

Now every sentence in Beipo is of great importance. As the compiler of Chinese dictionaries, dictionaries and pronunciations, he can be called the talker in the academics of the Song Dynasty. Later, he took on the compilation of the Demon-Destroying Art Plan, and his status even increased.

But the pressure of rising status followed one after another. He was almost turning himself into a hermit master when studying.

Or in other words, these things are no longer tasks for him, but a career that requires his whole life to devote his energy. Now the hardware is complete, and printing, papermaking, and binding technologies are becoming more and more mature, but the software is in short supply.

It’s easy to say for characters and dictionaries, but the pronunciation dictionary and the Demonic Dictionary are troublesome. Because we need to unify local dictionaries and guide the people to communicate, the pronunciation dictionary is no less than the dictionary of characters and dictionaries, but how to choose this pronunciation is very knowledgeable.

He needs to combine the three elements of Mandarin in various places, plus fewer changes, fewer consonants, and fewer local dialects. He also needs to abandon the things in Mandarin, make them colloquial, simplify, and folk, and collect, count, streamline and delete them in multiple places before a systematic language can be carried out.

This is a huge and complicated task. If it can be done, it will definitely have absolute value for cultural inheritance and preservation, and it will also help integrate the unity of multiple ethnic groups, thus completing the great unification that none of our predecessors have accomplished.

This is a great thing! Beipo knew it in his heart, so this was also his motivation to forget to eat and sleep, no doubt about it.

As for the three major magic tricks, they are encyclopedias, science museums and children's popular science books, etc., collectively called popular science. This is a sharp blade to eliminate ignorance. After success, there will be almost no evil words to deceive the public and no longer have the skills of the emperor.

This is also a great cause. Although it requires long-term difficulties, a journey of thousands of miles begins with a single step. As long as you start moving forward, you will definitely be able to reach the distance.

"Sir, the school officials from all over the country have arrived."

"Is that right?" Beipo quickly put on his shoes: "Let's lead the way quickly."

The north slope was scattered with hair and hurried forward. The people behind him just shook their heads and smiled bitterly when they looked at him, but they didn't say anything, because almost everyone would not care about such pure people, because they knew that these people had only ideas and goals left in their hearts.

Hundreds of academic officials across the country were summoned to the capital, and under the organization of the North Slope, they began to sort and organize language in an orderly manner. After the examination reform, the main tasks of these academic officials have been abolished, so it is a good thing for them to work in the capital now.

"What do you think about the knowledge of traditional Chinese script? "

Early the next morning, Beipo handed over the recent work content to Zhao Xingyue, and then mentioned the content of the traditional Chinese script that he had planned before.

Zhao Xing glanced at the transformation of Simplified Traditional Chinese a few times, and frowned: "Wouldn't this mean to delete many words?"

"Yes." Beipo said sincerely: "I have mainly extracted and sorted out the commonly used simple characters of about 3,000 words from Li Tang's documents and calligraphy. Weichen believes that as long as these 3,000 words are popularized, the process of literacy can be greatly accelerated and can play a better role in the next national literacy."

Zhao Xing pondered for a moment and asked, "What do you do if you want to do it? Why do you usually keep half of it?"

"Mainly because I am worried that some people in the academic community are dissatisfied."

"If they are dissatisfied, they will teach the people to write. Why do you care about those who do not work and do it? " Zhao Xing waved his hand: "You can do it, you can do it. If you want money, you have to ask for people... It's not enough. You have to think of your own way."

"I thank you for your kindness." Beipo bowed and thanked him and stood up and said, "Then I will say goodbye to the official family first."

"Hmm." Zhao Xing responded, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "I remember you and Song Beiyun are fellow villagers, right?"

"I have known Lord Song for many years."

"Oh, yes. You are also the owner of Hongwenguan. It seems that you have a good relationship." Zhao Xing nodded and said, "You have to do it well. The job of Hongwenguan is crucial. Whether the world is stable in the future can be part of your responsibility."

"Thank you, the officials, I am willing to be confused about this."

Zhao Xing nodded, allowed Beipo to leave, then took out a bag of lard residue wrapped in oil paper from under the table and started eating.

Zhao Xing has been a little bored recently. Maybe not only he is bored, but the whole Song Dynasty seems very bored. Every day, there are some jobs that look very important but are actually boring.

This made him miss Song Beiyun and Yan Shu for no reason. The two little enemies always look for trouble in different ways, especially Song Beiyun. That person cannot be idle. As long as he is idle, he will definitely cause endless chaos, and his life is full of ups and downs.

Now all reforms are in an orderly manner, the disaster is gradually stabilizing, and a new round of sowing has officially begun, but Zhao Xing can only sit here and eat lard residue.

"I heard that this thing is very popular among the people, right?"

"Officials, the disaster year has just passed, and all industries are waiting to be developed. This fried seed naturally becomes a satisfying thing for the people." The eunuch next to him explained: "After all, lard is expensive and in short supply."

"Send a message to Jiangxi to let them expand the scale of pig farming." Zhao Xing yawned: "But this thing seems to be related to grain production. Large animals will also reduce grain production... Just let them adjust themselves."

Zhao Xing fell into boredom again, and he even had the urge to go to Liao Kingdom to secretly find Song Beiyun to play. But now the Qingming Festival is right in front of him, and there are several large-scale events to participate in in the future, so he can't find time.

Pain...melancholy...

And at this moment, the eunuch outside suddenly knocked in and hurriedly entered. As soon as he entered the door, he held a letter and said, "Report, Song Beiyun's secret letter."

“Hurry and hurry.”

Zhao Xing straightened his body all at once. After receiving the letter, he immediately patted his thigh: "Okay! Come on, inform the Ministry of War and the Privy Council, come here immediately! Have a meeting!"

This secret letter was like the sweet rain after a long drought, which suddenly sobered Zhao Xing. He hurriedly summoned the big men from the Ministry of War and the Privy Council to come here, and began to discuss the matter.

First, all the citizens on the grassland must be withdrawn, and then the loan and transfer of weapons are loaned and transferred. There are many tricks here, but every piece of them has to suck blood. In addition, the amount of weapons this time is so large that it is enough to overturn the entire grassland, Zhao Xing seemed extremely excited.

"100,000 guns and five thousand cannons." Zhao Xing gently pulled the table: "In addition to cold-proof clothing, canned food, dry food and other supplies, what do you think should be?"

"What if they were to pay the debt after the grassland?" Duke Ding asked with a serious expression: "If they had such a huge military capital, wouldn't it be worth the loss if they had to pay the debt and attack my Song Dynasty?"

"Didn't I say it just now?" Zhao Xing laughed: "These military funds are not for one tribe but for the southern tribes of the entire grassland, and the northern tribes will be funded by the Liao Kingdom."

As soon as they heard this method, the smart people around them exchanged glances and knew who thought of this kind of trick. Apart from the evil man Song Beiyun, there were really few people in the world who could have such tricks that had no butts.

This is the way to understand the words "I am a bad person" on your forehead. It is really a bit harmful to good deeds, but I have to say that the results obtained in this way are maximized.

So since it is beneficial to the country and you don’t have to give birth to a baby yourself, why not do this solution?

So soon a set of bills for renting materials was sorted out. After review by three provinces, the world's first loan loan bill was born.

The terms of adding fuel to the fire are even more insidious than what Song Beiyun had proposed before. Not only should we ensure normal trade during war, but we should also unconditionally open the national gates to the Song Dynasty and stationed military consultants.

"The opposite is the Liao Kingdom." A group of new and old generals lifted their sleeves and tried: "You can't lose!"
