In fact, County Mayor Dai is not an official who is not in the world.

However, he had never worked in the fields, and his understanding of farm work was limited to books, and he was not very sensitive to matters in the fields.

Otherwise, Zhujia Village would not have realized what the changes in Zhujia Village meant.

Now that someone reminds me, County Mayor Dai naturally attaches importance to it.

As soon as County Mayor Dai took it seriously, Ye Yuran naturally told the story of Zhu Da and Zhu Er's "Experimental Zhuangzi".

"This farm is actually a researcher in farming. Just like the previous paddy field planting method, it was also slowly developed by using different planting methods like this."

"There are also composting, intercropping method..."

"These all need to be tried bit by bit. Once you try it a lot, you will know which method is easy to use."

"I know it's easy to use, but I can't use it casually. I also need to pilot it on a small scale to let everyone try it out to see if there is anything that needs to be checked for missing and fill in the gaps, and then improve it bit by bit."

...

Ye Yuran directly took the method of planting paddy fields as an example. At the beginning, it was also from the Zhu family. The Zhu family first tried the seeding, and after confirming that it was indeed effective, he took the people from Zhujia Village to plant it.

Even if they plant together, they were very careful and did not dare to let them change all the paddy fields, but only allocated one place for each household.

One is to try, the other is to learn and accumulate experience.

The first year was successful, but the second year was a little relaxed.

Then the third year...

"Everything is accumulated from nothing to something, from imperfection to perfection," said Ye Yuran, "If you can't hurry to farm, you have to do it year by year.

Come on, try every year.”

"But land is the lifeblood of farmers, and it is impossible for all farmers to try it, so this 'experimental farm' was found."

"After a while, County Magistrate Dai can go to the experimental village to see. The fields in the village are divided into pieces, with signs inserted, and each piece of land is responsible for the same. After counting ten pieces of land, there are ten methods a year, three

In five years, you can find something."

Ye Yuran could only talk about the big direction. When he really came to the experimental farm, he had to talk about farming, Zhu Da and Zhu Er came.

Fortunately, the two of them were a little stupid, but Zhuangzi managed the experiment very well, and the various records and data lists were clearly made.

County Magistrate Dai, who has learned Arabic numerals, can understand it at a glance.

From the beginning of the establishment of the Experimental Zhuangzi to the present, it cannot be said that there are many achievements, but with the direction, it is to go through the test of time and see the final direction.

"Not bad! You two should work hard, and I will wait for your good news at that time." County Magistrate Dai was very satisfied with these things, and even praised Zhu Da and Zhu Er for a few words.

He could see that this experimental Zhuangzi was doing "real things", which was no more fancy than doing business, and was easy to attract attention.

In addition to the Zhu family's elementary school and agricultural training classes, County Mayor Dai agreed from the bottom of his heart that the Zhu family was "transmitted to family through farming and reading".

Which company is not a man in charge?

If a woman earns some money from rouge, as long as it doesn’t delay the affairs of the men at home, that’s fine.

Ye Yuran's eyes flashed slightly, and he also took County Magistrate Dai to participate in the Zhu Family School.

"This elementary school is also to facilitate the villagers. I confiscated any training, so I collected some of my husband's rations and the cost of books..." Ye Yuran said, "Now the children are still young, so they ask them to practice on the sand table, and paper

The consumption is small and the cost is relatively low.”

In fact, Ye Yuran also thought about solving the problems of "paper", "pen" and "ink", but if there was no preparation in the early stage, it would be too abrupt to take it out rashly.

Therefore, she had a higher demand for Zhu's primary school - in order to save costs, she had to embark on the road of "paper making" and start movable type printing, newspapers, and magazines...

Finally, a village-level library was built.

Of course, this is a later story.

"All of them are willing to send their children to study?" County Magistrate Dai was a little surprised. He had heard that there was a primary school in Zhujia Village before, but he always thought that the scale was very small and there were a few people going to school.

Unexpectedly, after an on-site inspection, I found that the school was not smaller than that in the town, with several large classrooms.

He has also visited other villages, and very few villages are willing to study. Is Zhujia Village so open-minded?

Ye Yuran smiled and said, "Why don't you want to? Who is a parent who is not for the sake of his children and doesn't want his children to live a good life in the future? People who know how to read and write are quite different from those who don't know how to read and write.

…”

There is no big reason, there are only some on-site examples.

For example, Zhu San and Zhu Qi.

The Zhu family can raise two scholars, and in the same village, can they still not raise a second one?

What's more, those who work in the Zhu family's factories and workshops, who can usually become group leaders can write and calculate.

In addition, those who go to work outside for a short-term job can write and calculate, and are more likely to get high salaries.

After saying this, County Magistrate Dai understood that this was an eagle that was scattered only when he saw a rabbit. People in Zhujia Village saw the benefits, no wonder they were willing to send their children in the village to school.

The people in Zhujia Village tasted the sweetness, and the people in other nearby villages were also moved when they saw it, so...

In the Zhu family elementary school, there are not only children from Zhujia Village, but also children from nearby villages.

County Magistrate Dai asked, "There are really children who are particularly good at studying?"

"Yes, why don't you? There are a few people who can study in every grade and class. They have good memory, read quickly, and learn things quickly..." Ye Yuran asked his teacher to give out the students' usual test scores.

This scoring method made County Magistrate Dai’s eyes lit up: “Your score is so detailed?”

When I looked at the test paper again, each question was marked with a score, with a total score of 100. It is no wonder that everyone's scores were confirmed to be in the single position.

Unlike the books he read before, the gentleman only relies on A, B, C and D.

To be precise, it is the teacher who scores based on his personal feelings. His personal aesthetics and preferences have a particularly great impact on the score.

But Zhu's elementary school exam papers are different. People have fill-in-the-blank questions, multiple-choice questions, short-answer questions, and essay questions...

The proportion of subjective questions is extremely small, and the proportion of objective questions is relatively large.

"Your test paper is very special. How did you think of designing such test paper?" County Magistrate Dai was a little excited and wanted to bring some copies back to make for his children.

These papers not only include titles from the Four Books and Five Classics, but also involve agriculture, arithmetic, geography, and travel notes.

Is there really no problem with such a small test and such a wide range of content?

Ye Yuran smiled and said, "The key point of children is to lay the foundation and tell them some common sense questions, such as when does spring plowing start every year and what steps are divided into seedling cultivation... We are in the enlightenment class,

Only a small number of children will follow the path of imperial examinations, and most of them will stay in the village to farm and support their families. So we also need to make more preparations, so that they can learn more basic common sense and wait until they get older.

Make adjustments based on their learning situation and make focused choices so that they will not delay their future lives.”

"This is it." County Magistrate Dai nodded.

His children will definitely take the path of imperial examinations in the future and have no other choice, so from the beginning of enlightenment, they will learn the Four Books and Five Classics, and go directly to the imperial examinations.

The children of Zhu's elementary school are different. They are farmers' children. Some will continue to study and choose imperial examinations; some will return to the village and continue to farm.
