Chapter 60: Ideas for the Future

Cao Xian's career can indeed be regarded as a thousand-year achievement. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAs a philologist, Cao Xian himself has an authoritative position in the research and pronunciation of glyphs. Coupled with the series of trends brought about by his annotation of "Zhaoming Anthology", it can be said that as a teacher, it is very appropriate and reasonable for him to put his personal hopes and racial instincts of "tracing back to the source" on a genius.

Friedrich escorted his nephew Gauss, Buettner enlightened him and guided him to help him, and Carl Wilhelm Ferdinand paid real money to eventually achieve Gauss's honor as the "Prince of Mathematics".

As an engineering dog, Lao Zhang certainly knows that mathematics is an important and most important tool for deconstructing the world. But the problem is that Lao Zhang is not a mathematician, and the highest achievement in his two lives combined, that is, a doctoral dissertation in materials science, nothing more.

Therefore, Zhang De's strong desire in his heart is to make Li Shan, a genius, his student, his student, but the sensibility cools down and returns to rationality, and he doesn't want to "mislead people's children".

Ferdinand, the duke, can invest in Gauss, why can't he, the baron, encourage Li Shan?

Isn't it just money?

The study of oracle bones is not something that can be solved by one generation or two generations, when Lao Zhang passed by the Shengli Oilfield in his previous life, the age of a piece of oracle bone was 3,700 years ago when carbon 14 determined it. He can't measure carbon 14 now, but he can help Li Shan collect enough information and pass it on.

In the Tang Dynasty, where he existed, the possibility of the rise of backward nations was zero, and as long as the status of "oracle bones" was elevated to the status of "bell and ding", the retrospective instinct of the origin of the race would surely make these traces of predecessors that had been immortal for thousands of years continue on a large scale.

He won't mention Anyang with Li Shan, and he won't say anything about Yinxu, how much is circulating in this world, it's how much. Compared with the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Tang people were descendants; Compared with Zhenguan, later generations take Zhenguan as their predecessors.

As a predecessor, while leaving a visible legacy, we must also leave an invisible legacy.

As for now, he has hundreds of thousands of slaves, workers, helpers, and servants, and he has integrated manpower to compile a "dictionary" for Cao Xian and Li Shan's master and apprentice.

"Xu Jun leads the benefits of the radicals, and the old man thinks it is good."

Cao Xian's summary of radicals was quite complete, and a considerable number of simplified characters were extracted from cursive script for the sake of easier writing. The draft he has in hand is a multi-character multi-form, multi-interpretation, and cursive simplified characters. It's just that he will be reluctant to implement it for a while, and the main problem is the opposition caused by the difference between simple and traditional.

The scholars are reluctant to use simplified cursive characters, and the Han Shu uses them in vain, and in the long run, they must be simplified characters to replace complicated glyphs. But in the short term, or even during the tenure of three or five emperors, the people of Hanshu who used simplified characters would definitely not be able to integrate into the scholar class.

Therefore, Cao Xian's solution was a roundabout, he did not want to provoke the current scholars and delay this technical means of "opening up the wisdom of the people". Although in fact, Chinese characters have been simplified since their birth, until the "Emperor of the Ages", who shot rabbits three hundred and eight times a day, set a statute that looks strange......

"The doctor's book wants to emulate Xu Shen?"

Zhang De is a little strange, Cao Xian is unlikely to follow his predecessors, and "Shuo Wen Jie Zi" is no longer enough for people in the Sui and Tang dynasties. After all, the population of the Sui Dynasty peaked at more than 50 million after removing the hidden black households. Language is constantly evolving as the population grows.

"Originally, the old man wanted to start with the right sound of the rhyme."

This idea is very good, but it's nothing big, and at the moment the current Luo official dialect, that is, Luo Xiayin, just have to follow the rhyme to learn. It can be said that for the illiterate and the lower middle class, it is completely useless, and this is the trick played by the scholars themselves.

And back then, Luo Xiayin was also the "dirty psychology" of the unification of the northern and southern scholars, they looked down on the Guanlong military group, looked down on Yang Jian, and felt that Yang Jian was uneducated, of course, they were all slapped in the face later. However, due to various reasons, the southern squirting in the northern dialect is similar to "Hulu", and the roar in the north is like "barbarian" in the southern dialect.

Yidi and Hu Man couldn't use it, so they used Luo's lower tone, with a little bit of "diachronic superiority" that traces back to the Han and Jin Dynasties.

Cao Xian has experienced this series of dirty things, you said that he is a Jiangdu person, but he came to learn Luo's lower sound, isn't this tangled.

Lao Zhang is even more entangled, the eldest grandson doesn't call the eldest grandson "Dangshen", and when he sees the old yin and the eldest cousin, he feels that it is a big supplement.

"But the old man thought about it again ......and again," Cao Xian thought about it, and still took out the oracle bone engraved with the word "盥", "I want to start with the sound training, regardless of the three tombs and five classics, and interpret the characters, choose its glyph change, and take one change into one sound." ”

Saying that, afraid that Zhang De didn't know, Cao Xian made a few changes, and then set a few notes. There are letters, initials and finals, and when combined, they are a pronunciation.

Quite ahead of his time, when he was an oil worker, Lao Zhang once went to a drilling platform in the Indian Ocean and dealt with an engineer in the "booger country", and then knew that the pinyin scheme they used was a set of parallel schemes in China.

Later, of course, in order to be integrated into the international community, the alphabet adopted the Roman alphabet and abandoned the Wittoma......

Cao Xian's approach is actually to make it more convenient for children to memorize and then learn. This is a system that can be generalized, so that the rhyme can be cut to death.

Most importantly, this did not involve a change in the glyphs, and the slow simplification of the scholars did not conflict with Cao Xian's system of pronunciation.

However, it is obvious that Cao Xian did not intend to throw stones at the court to ask for directions.

In today's world, there are only one person who speaks Luo's lower sound, and the total is five or six million. It's more of a "bird language", and the Jiangyin dialect spoken by Lao Zhang is thrown to Chang'an, which is the "bird language", not to mention the likes of Fuzhou and Jianzhou.

Chang'an people themselves don't speak the Chang'an dialect, and most of them take Luo's lower accent as the beauty, but they can speak Luo's official dialect, and their social status is not at the bottom.

What Old Man Cao has wanted to solve for decades is actually the exchange problem of the huge empire, which is also an eternal achievement, but this eternal achievement is promoted by the current imperial court, and it may not be more efficient to promote it by Zhang De.

From the finalization of the policy by the imperial court to the decentralization of the state and county school administration and then to maturity, the cycle of finalizing the policy alone may be back and forth between the Zhongshu orders in the service, and whether the Shangshu Province will implement it or not, no one knows whether it will be refuted. Although Shangshu's left and right servant shooting is Fang Mou's decision, if Fang Qiao is persuaded by the Lu family to say that Che Yun is used well and plays a new system of birds, isn't it a waste of public money? Who knows.

As for Du Ruhui, his hand can't reach for the part of academic politics.

On the contrary, the China Resources Department behind Zhang De, this vertical organizational system, is quite efficient compared to the various ministries of the imperial court.

In addition, compared with the personnel flow system and organization of the imperial court and the family, although Zhang De's China Resources Department is smaller in scale and has relatively withered talents, it has huge development potential and is very flexible.

Many times, a reasonable and qualified decision can be executed very quickly. For example, the white sugar distribution plan of the year was changed to the family, and it was absolutely impossible to spit out the fat in the mouth, and the differences within the family were enough to make such a rapid extravagant decision stillborn.

Therefore, Cao Xian came up with his own sound training system, which is to want to run it in the China Resources Department.
