Although the Miscellaneous Academy outside Langyuan City is not as lively as it was some time ago, it has barely returned to the peace and quiet of the past, but that is only quiet on the surface.
"Lao Luo, no one is willing to come. To put it nicely, they are just coveting our knowledge and skills, but they are jealous of our identities. Those who are duplicitous are all shameless people!"
"It's the same here. I went to all the places I was familiar with and had good friendships with. I was told clearly that if you need financial assistance, we can only find students. If they don't help, they can't help.
. He also told me not to work in vain, asserting that we can’t find anyone like this.”
"Oh? Are you sure we can't recruit students? Can you tell us why?"
"Yes, and I think what they said makes sense. It is also a big issue that we have ignored before."
"Tell me."
"Miscellaneous scholars cannot enter the official career!"
As soon as this last sentence was spoken, everyone in the room fell silent. Including Luo Changshan, a ray of clarity flashed in his eyes, clearing up his confusion.
"You're so careless!"
"Is this a blinder?"
All of you here are smart people. Many things may be missed due to some obsessions or inertial perceptions. Nowadays, after hitting the wall every time and being awakened by others, how can you still not understand?
Knowledge is good knowledge, and many people are willing to learn it. But being willing to learn does not mean that you are willing to put yourself in the status of miscellaneous studies. Because this will involve paying a huge price that others are unwilling to do and feel that they are at a loss.
.Just "not entering the official career" is enough to make 99% of the scholars in Nanyuan Kingdom stay away from the identity of the miscellaneous scholars.
what to do?
Understanding and awakening to the causes of difficulties does not mean that you can immediately think of solutions. After all, "the miscellaneous scholar does not enter the official career" is not a problem that can be solved by just relying on a few words from the miscellaneous scholar lineage. The things involved can be said
It is already related to the power infrastructure of Nanyuan Kingdom. How difficult is it to change it?
Several people thought about it for a long time but didn't come up with any ideas. Finally, someone suggested that Luo Changshan go find Zhang Yan and listen to Zhang Yan's opinion. After all, compared to people like them who have always been dull and academic, Zhang Yan's vision and thinking are different.
Maybe I can give you some opinions.
Luo Changshan thought for a while and nodded in agreement. There was no delay. Zhang Yan happened to be giving lectures in the small courtyard at the back at this time. He made time to go there and caught up with Zhang Yan to finish his lessons.
It should be said that the small courtyard where Zhang Yan is located is very special in the miscellaneous academy. The special thing is that no one else can enter at all. You can see that the stone road is smooth, but after taking a few steps, you will find that you have been at the intersection.
Standing still. Unless Zhang Yan finishes his studies, this weird situation will continue.
The mystery arouses people's curiosity. But if Zhang Yan doesn't say anything, who can get clues from him? Nowadays, the Zaxue line still relies on his influence to build the academy. If Zhang Yan withdraws at this time, the academy will be destroyed.
I'm afraid 90% of the people here, big and small, will have a hard time surviving.
Therefore, Zhang Yan's weirdness has become something that everyone in the Miscellaneous Academy of Sciences has acquiesced in and deliberately avoided talking about.
Furthermore, "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" has been taken out by Zhang Yan. What more can the miscellaneous studies school ask for? Even Luo Changshan always felt in his heart that Zhang Yan did not care about the knowledge and situation of the miscellaneous studies school. He
It seems that he cares more about his identity as a miscellaneous scholar, as if... putting a layer of disguise on himself?
Especially after Zhang Yan showed his extraordinary killing methods a few months ago, this feeling became even more prominent in Luo Changshan's heart.
Therefore, Luo Changshan was not sure how to locate Zhang Yan's identity.
"Senior Luo, why are you free to come to my place today? Please come in quickly." Zhang Yan welcomed Luo Changshan in with a smile. His behavior was not any different from before. The etiquette was not bad at all.
The two sensible little kids hurriedly brought some cold drinks to Luo Changshan, then bowed and jumped outside to play, leaving the classroom to the two adults.
"Mr. Zhang, I have discussed some complicated issues with my husband before about the establishment of a line of miscellaneous studies, but we did not discuss them in depth. Especially in terms of recruiting students, I did not listen to your husband's opinions more. Now it seems that I
The previous plan no longer works..."
Luo Changshan eloquently said that the key point to talk about is the current difficulties of the miscellaneous school lineage. He does not expect Zhang Yan to solve this problem immediately, because that itself is unrealistic. But he also hopes to get something from Zhang Yan.
Some ideas and directions that can solve the problem. After all, Zhang Yan's mind is much smarter in this regard than theirs.
Zhang Yan listened carefully, but he was not surprised at all. It was all expected. He had expected Luo Changshan and the others to hit a wall before. But now he realized that he was not slow in reacting.
But it’s easier said than done!
"What's the matter? Is there anything you can't say, Mr. Zhang?" Luo Changshan saw that Zhang Yan was hesitant and speechless. It didn't look like he had no clue, but he seemed to be hesitating to speak.
"No, it's not that it's inconvenient to say it, but I'm just thinking about how to say it to make it easier for Senior Luo to accept it."
"Hahaha, Mr. Zhang is worrying too much. Although I am old, my mind is not pedantic. In addition, this is a major matter in the field of miscellaneous studies. No matter what method, as long as it is useful, I will seriously consider it."
Zhang Yan smiled and secretly said that Luo Changshan was indeed not pedantic, but sometimes he was very stubborn.
"Senior Luo, you also know that this kind of difficulty cannot be solved overnight. What is needed is subtlety. So there is no need to rush.
If you think about it slowly, there are two paths that can go in parallel."
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details!" Luo Changshan didn't expect that Zhang Yan would not only solve the big problem that stuck them, but also have two ways?!
"First, as I mentioned to my seniors last time, you can recruit some children who are in middle school or before elementary school. It will be troublesome. And don't focus on the universities in the city. You should go to small schools outside the city or even in remote places.
School. Most of the kids there want to be shopkeepers or do some respectable work. They have never thought about entering an official career, so naturally they are not attracted by the mainstream schools of thought.
Even those remote places are places where the power of mainstream schools is weak. If the miscellaneous school lineage is willing to spend money, they can often send people to build elementary school at their own expense. Over time, the benefits will definitely be seen.
The second is to open up areas that the mainstream schools of thought cannot immerse in. For example...the military! Using the extensive knowledge unique to the miscellaneous school line, you can concentrate on specific areas, such as ordnance research, and you can even do the same.
Scientists are often sent to conduct on-the-spot investigations in the military. Ordnance and even the chores in the military are sorted out as knowledge.
As long as it works, can we add a position in the military that can only be qualified by the general lineage? Does this open up a closed situation in the official career? "
