Chapter 18 The
busy shipyard master Lin Xianzong under the warship has been busy for a long time, and finally got some free time. When he looked up and saw his grandson Lin Chun hiding behind Lin Liangjun, the old shipwright wanted to pretend not to see it, and got out. About to leave the dock.
Lin Liangjun is the demon king of the guard house. This is not to say that this boy bullies men and dominates women. The family tradition of Lin Baihu has always been good, and it is impossible for Lin Mojun of today's Baihu to let his brother do whatever he wants.
Lin Liangjun is the troublemaker of Changning Guard. Almost everyone in Changning Guard has been teased by him. This kid is so slippery that there is no chance of settling a score with him.
Lin Xianzong is the master craftsman of the shipyard and the most skilled carpenter in Changningwei.
After he made a wooden short bow for his grandson Lin Chun half a year ago, he became obsessed with Lin Liangjun, the devil incarnate, and pestered him to make wooden toys from time to time.
If he refuses to do it, Lin Liangjun will not mess around. He just has to be careful whether he "accidentally" steps in dog poop when he goes home at night.
As the most arrogant kid in the entire Changning Guard, Lin Liangjun has the ability to make all the elders go around.
But how could the sharp-eyed Lin Liangjun let go of the old shipwright? He pulled Lin Chun out from behind and shouted to Lin Xianzong: "Uncle Zong
! Your favorite grandnephew is here to see you!"
Lin Xianzong's grandson Lin Chun revealed With an expression uglier than crying, Lin Liangjun had no choice but to pull him over today, and he was going to be beaten by his grandfather and father in a mixed doubles tonight.
Lin Xianzong sighed. He knew how persistent Lin Liangjun was, and knew that he couldn't escape today, so he had no choice but to walk towards him.
Lin Liangjun showed a smile and said, "Uncle Zong, this is my brother Aze, the nephew of my ninth aunt."
Lin Xianzong frowned when he heard Lin Liangjun's messy seniority, and then looked Su Ze up and down.
Lin Xianzong certainly knew that Su Ze entered the clan of Jiu Gu's mother-in-law's family. During these days, Su Ze was peacefully cultivating wasteland, which made the people of Changningwei have a good impression of him. After all, in the agricultural society of Ming Dynasty , People who are willing to work hard will always be respected.
Lin Liangjun squeezed out a smile and said: "Uncle Zong, my brother wants to re-establish a health school, and my brother wants Ah Chun to accompany me to study in a health school." Lin Xianzong naturally asked Su Ze to re-establish a health school
. I also know it. As a shipwright from Chang Ning Wei, he is also qualified to participate in clan discussions.
However, people in Changningwei generally have no enthusiasm for re-establishing health schools.
This is not because people in Changningwei despise scholars, but it is just that it is too difficult to study in Fujian!
From the time when the ancestors of the third generation established the health education until the fathers of hundreds of households abolished the health education, the Changning Guard also ran the health education for the third generation!
For three generations, not a single person passed the county examination!
You must know that those who passed the county examination in the Ming Dynasty only gained admission to the imperial examination and did not even have the privileges of scholars.
In the heyday of Changning Guard, no one could pass the county examination, let alone its decline now.
Although Lin Xianzong loved his grandson Lin Chun, he also felt that studying at Weixue was a waste of time.
If you have this time, you might as well learn some family skills from your own side.
Lin Xianzong knew that Lin Liangjun dragged his grandson to the shipping service, and he must have something to ask for, so he said: "Quickly let go!"
Lin Liangjun said with a smile: "Uncle Zong, the tables in the Wei School are broken, but you are Our carpenters in Changningwei are the best, so I would like to ask you to repair it?"
Lin Xianzong thought for a while, repairing the table is not a troublesome matter. Looking at his grandson following Lin Liangjun, Lin Xianzong asked:
"Are you really Do you want to study with him?"
Lin Chun is Lin Liangjun's follower. He is two years older than Lin Liangjun, but he has a very cowardly character and is an honest and honest child.
Hearing his grandfather's question, Lin Chun mustered up the courage to raise his head and said, "Grandpa, I want to study!" Lin Xianzong looked at Lin Chun in surprise. His grandson had never had any opinions, but this time he was determined to study?
Su Ze said with a smile at this time: "Uncle Zong, studying is not just for the imperial examination. I am not going to teach only the Four Books and the Five Classics in Weixue." Lin Xianzong raised his head and looked at
Su Ze. He heard Uncle Lin Qi say that this Su Ze is a good farmer.
Aunt Ninth also said that he was a scholar, but she didn't expect that he could still be a monk?
"More than just studying the Four Books and Five Classics?"
Su Ze nodded and said, "Studying and literacy is to broaden your knowledge. The imperial examination is one way, but it is not just the imperial examination." Lin Xianzong looked at
Su Ze in confusion. This was different from the county school. Are the words of those scholars there different?
Su Ze pointed to the warship in the dock and said: "Just talking about building a warship, how much materials are used and how long it takes to work. This is also knowledge." "The Four Books and Five Classics are
knowledge, and the "Kaogong Ji" is also knowledge. Reading and literacy are very important for carpenters. Craftsmanship is also beneficial."
Lin Xianzong was surprised at this time. He was a shipwright in the Guards Station and had a family tradition of craftsmanship. He also had a fragment of "Kao Gong Ji" at home.
Lin Xianzong was confident that his craftsmanship as a shipwright was among the best among the guards in Fujian. Even the master craftsmen of the Quanzhou Guard were not better than him, just because he had studied this fragment.
Lin Xianzong did not want his grandson to enter health school, not because he opposed his grandson's literacy, but because he was afraid that his grandson would have the idea of taking the imperial examination and would not learn a craft down-to-earth.
Lin Xianzong saw several old boys in the county school. They were so obsessed with studying that they spent all day studying when they were not doing anything. Even though their ancestral business was ruined, they still failed to pass the government examination.
After hearing Su Ze's "teaching philosophy", Lin Xianzong's attitude immediately improved a lot. He said:
"Leave the tables and chairs. I will repair them when I have free time tomorrow and send them to the Health School."
Lin Liangjun was happy. He jumped up and said, "As expected, Uncle Zong loves me the most!"
Su Ze suddenly said, "Uncle Zong, I also want to come and help fix the table tomorrow."
Lin Xianzong looked at Su Ze in confusion and asked, "Aren't you a scholar? Scholars also need to learn carpentry skills?"
This is not because Lin Xianzong wants to hide his secrets, but because carpenters are craftsmen, and their status in Ming society is far lower than that of scholars, and even lower than that of farmers.
It sounds like Su Ze has extraordinary knowledge. Even if he failed in the imperial examination, he is still a good farmer. Why should he learn the carpenter's craft from him?
Su Ze did not answer Lin Xianzong's question, but said to Lin Liangjun and Lin Chun:
"Tomorrow will be the first class for you and me. Xunzi said in "Encouragement to Learning", 'The wood is straight and the rope is straight. The mixture is like a wheel, and its music is in order.'" "
This carpentry craft also contains great principles. Tomorrow our first lesson is to learn to repair tables and chairs. Uncle Zong, is it convenient for you?"
Hearing what Su Ze said, he couldn't listen. Knowing the truth, Lin Xianzong could only agree.
Su Ze smiled and closed the system prompt,
[found the location "Dockyard", has learned the skill "Carpentry", currently Lv1, experience 0/100]
