After Mr. Fujino came, Saifu also recommended him to Bai Gui. Only then did he realize that he was from Japan, named Hachihei, from Kyoto, and his nose was covered with glasses like most intellectuals. He was a teacher in the Japanese crash course in Shiwusai.

"Mr. Fujino?"

Bai Gui was surprised when he heard this familiar name.

But it soon turned into peace. This should not be the Mr. Fujino in Xun Ge'er's writing. Mr. Fujino from Sendai is a medical student, so he should still teach at Sendai Medical School.

In 1870, in order to conscription, taxation, household registration, etc., Emperor Meiji of Japan issued the "Admission Order for the Character of Common People's Miao". Later, in 1875, the "Admission Order for the Character of Common People's Miao" was promulgated, which stipulated that all Japanese people must have surnames. However, Japanese civilians with low culture can only use names they are familiar with, so Japanese surnames are mostly represented by Kawa, Tian, ​​Shan, and Ye.

Fujino, as the name suggests, is a wilderness with vines.

This is also the big surname of Japanese people, similar to Zhao Qian, Sun and Li.

As for the Japanese crash course teachers who are Japanese, there is nothing strange about this, just like most Western lecturers are Westerners now. Few international students who come back from abroad will "degenerate" and become only a foreign language lecturer after returning home.

At this time, Japan had just squeezed into the ranks of the great powers. The lives of civilians in China may not be better than those under the Qing court. It is common for civilians to starve to death. However, Japanese people who learn Chinese could find a good job as a Japanese lecturer and get generous rewards by just traveling far to the Qing Dynasty.

"Bai Sang, you are welcome to study in my class. I have lecture notes here, you can borrow them to study first."

Fujino Hachihei was also very happy to hear that Bai Gui was a new member of their Japanese crash course. For each extra person, he received more rewards.

His Chinese is good, but he is like a stuck tape, with the special pronunciation of Japanese people. He speaks Mandarin like the people in Guangdong Province. He can hear it at first glance. His words are straight, but they are weird.

Fujino Hachiharu added, "The textbooks are specially customized, there is no extra."

"Thank you Mr. Fujino."

He stood up and bowed to thank him. The teacher should be respectful and should not be prejudiced just because he is a Japanese.

Soon, the meal was finished.

Bai Gui first went to the East Gate residence where Fujino Hachiji lived and borrowed a set of lecture notes, a thick book, two or three inches thick, with a cowhide cover, and the publisher on the title page of the textbook was written in Japanese, which should be a textbook published in Japan.

He left the normal school, bought a few snacks, then went to the lecture hall, found Zhaifu, and gave the snacks to Zhaifu, thanking him for his kindness today.

Zhaifu was also very happy. He led Bai Gui to Xipu's dormitory and found a dormitory with few people.

The dormitory is a large bunk shop, which may be a few people per room or dozens per room. As usual, students like Bai Gui who are exempt from tuition will sleep in a crowded dormitory. However, when Zhaifu saw Bai Gui repaid, he took on his personal feelings and used the power in his hands to transfer it to a high-quality dormitory.

It is said to be of top quality, but there are fewer people and better lighting. It is impossible to live in a single room!

"The students here are also in the Japanese crash course. You are in the same class as them, so there are many people who ask for teaching."

Zhaifu said.

The normal school is divided into several vegetarian schools such as Zhidaozhai, Qiuzhizhai, Xueguzhai, Xingyizhai, and Shiwuzhai. There are several disciplines in the vegetarian schools. Similar to the division of college majors in later universities. This division method originated from Hu Ai's teaching method of splitting vegetarian schools in the Song Dynasty, also called Suhu teaching method, and was used by local colleges in later generations.

When I entered the dormitory, there was a boy of seventeen or eighteen lying on the bed, with his legs raised, folded on the fence, holding a magazine in his hand and watching with relish.

Zhaifu said a few words to him, and he got out of the bed and greeted Bai Gui very enthusiastically.

"I have a lot of advice!"

The two bowed to each other and also informed their names.

The 17 or 18-year-old boy is named Liu Mingda. His family is a wealthy businessman in Qin Province. He is in the raw silk business. His father bought a mulberry garden in the south and specially transported it back to sell it to the Wu Shishi Mill.

"If Brother Bai wants to buy cloth, you can tell me that there will be discounts when I go and get it."

Liu Mingda put the book under his ribs, said with a smile to Bai Gui, then walked straight out of the dormitory and headed towards the lecture hall. It was almost time for class to start.

The status of merchants at this time was different from decades and was not at all despised. Under the influence of the West, most people also looked at money, after all, the top scholars could run factories and do business.

After Liu Mingda and Zhaifu left, he looked carefully and found that there were only two people in this dormitory, plus him.

Another person's bed was of great value, with thick blue cloth and cotton quilts sewn in silk, inside and out, showing the owner's wealth.

"This should be the rich children who Zhaifu specially selected to take care of me."

Bai Gui secretly said.

Those who come to study in the normal school have basically no shortage of money and are much richer than ordinary people, but they are also divided into grades. Different grades and dormitories they live in are also different.

He probably depends on his identity as the head of the case. No one will argue with him when he lives here.

...

Bai Gui had just registered for school, and the supervisory institute gave him two days off.

He returned to the inn.

Zhou Yuan and others were already waiting for him.

"It's strange that the teacher who taught us English was actually a red-haired foreigner." The three people who entered Xianning County School talked about interesting things about admission.

Like Fujino Hachihei, the person who teaches English is also a Westerner.

"Red-headed, English-friendly, should be Scots!"

Bai Gui said while eating the dishes. The Scots should not be able to make it in China and came to Qing Dynasty to be a teacher of Western Languages. This is indeed a good way out. The upper-class British gentlemen would not have gone to such a remote place in Qin Province and were wronged to teach Western Languages ​​in the county school.

They specially ordered a table of dishes in the restaurant. After eating this time, they had time to meet and they would get the time for the higher education school to have a holiday.

"Aren't Scots, aren't English?"

Several people listened and spoke with great interest.

"In Europe, when the Holy Roman Empire was still alive, black hair was the noblest race. The Italians now have black hair. They are descendants of the Romans, and now the blonde and blue-eyed Westerners are barbarians who invaded the Western Roman Empire..."

"The red-haired Scots were first natives of the British Isles. The British Isles are the British Isles..."

Bai Gui originally wanted to use the Turks and the Huns as examples, but suddenly he remembered that he was still in the Qing Dynasty, so he stopped talking about this place.

Cultural confidence seems common in later generations. No one would think that Westerners are superior to themselves. But when this nation is in danger, it is extremely common to advocate Westernization. How could it be that there is no tendency to admire foreign countries?

He didn't want to see his classmates look like this.

"There is a record in "Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Biography of the Western Regions": The people all grew up and were similar to China, so they were called the Great Qin..."
