Another day, we broke camp and marched.

Sure enough, after parking for a day, the road conditions improved a lot.

The roads in ancient times were really poor. The so-called avenue was just a dirt road.

The good thing is that the dirt road has been walked over and over again by countless people, vehicles and horses, and it is relatively solid. It will not be like ordinary wilderness, where it will be covered with mud when it rains.

Carpenter's Camp, something new has been made.

What Li Mengxi said is a sand table for holding sand, a wooden pen for writing, and a wood chip for smoothing the sand. This three-piece set of writing board, pen, and eraser is very simple to make. Lu Li made it himself, and it can be made in one day.

It's over.

When Li Mengxi was looking at something, his younger brother wanted to grab the small wooden sword in Li Mengxi's hand to play with, but Li Mengxi refused to give it to him. The two of them were fighting over it and making a fuss when Liu Bei came on horseback.

When Liu Bei saw his two brothers fighting over a small wooden sword that was as long as a palm, Liu Bei smiled and asked, "Xi'er, what are you doing with this wooden sword?"

Most children would definitely play with a wooden knife or sword as a toy. But when Li Mengxi made it, it must have deep meaning and not just as a toy.

Sure enough, "It's for writing." Li Mengxi said.

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, "Oh? Why is it made to look like a sword when it is used for writing?" Liu Bei was very surprised.

"This is for attacking the mind." Li Mengxi explained seriously.

It's okay not to say it, but Liu Bei was even more confused when he said it.

So Li Mengxi explained to Liu Bei why a small wooden sword had the effect of attacking the heart.

To put it simply, wooden pens are for children to write with, but children are only interested in doing things for three minutes, and their enthusiasm for learning is a problem.

Therefore, if the pen is made more beautiful, children will be more willing to hold the pen, and if they are willing to hold the pen, they will naturally be more willing to write.

A small pen can make children more interested in learning. If you write two more words, you will make money.

It turns out that this is a psychological attack.

After Liu Bei heard this, he looked at Li Mengxi and laughed.

It's really interesting that they use tricks on children.

After laughing, Liu Bei said seriously, "Xi'er, yesterday you asked me to find some scholars, and I found them."

"Oh!" Li Mengxi exclaimed. He remembered. No wonder he always felt that he had forgotten something. This is it! We need to find some people who can read and write to serve as teachers in the army.

Having found enough people, Liu Bei asked Li Mengxi how to arrange the people.

Without thinking, Li Mengxi said that just like the butcher camp and the fishing team, they should form a team first, and then divide the cars into the baggage team and follow the baggage team first. When there are enough cars, one car and one teacher

Sir, please arrange a few more students in the car, so that you can teach the children to read and learn calligraphy while marching.

After hearing this, Liu Bei looked dissatisfied and said, "Xi'er, it's so disrespectful to be so disrespectful to Confucian scholars!"

Li Mengxi was stunned when he was scolded by Liu Bei. He didn't know where he was scorning a Confucian scholar.

Seeing that Li Mengxi didn't seem to know what was right or wrong, Liu Bei fulfilled his duty as a mirror and took advantage of Li Mengxi's impoliteness.

If you want to ask a teacher to teach the children to learn calligraphy, you must ask a courtesy gentleman.

"You said that letting scholars have the same arrangements as butchers and fishermen is not contempt, what is it?" Liu Bei said sternly.

Only then did Li Mengxi understand what Liu Bei meant.

It turns out that treating the butcher the same as the fisherman and the teacher is a slight on the teacher.

This is an injustice to Li Mengxi. It is not that Li Mengxi looks down on teachers, on the contrary, Li Mengxi respects scholars very much.

The difference is that Li Mengxi feels that everyone is equal. He respects fishermen, butchers, carpenters, soldiers, and teachers all the same.

The difference in moral values ​​between the two phases creates conflicts.

Li Mengxi felt that there was no disrespect in assigning teachers to be the same as butchers and fishermen.

Liu Bei, on the other hand, did not have the concept of equality for all people. Instead, Liu Bei believed that not giving favors to teachers would be a slight to scholars.

You can sing whatever songs you like on any mountain. In the Han Dynasty, you had to act according to the behavioral habits of the Han Dynasty.

However, in the Han Dynasty, Li Mengxi's eyes darkened and he could only ask Liu Bei for advice on how to treat teachers with courtesy.

Liu Bei had already prepared a draft and said without thinking, "In this way, I have selected twenty teachers. The army can free up five carriages, and four people can ride in one carriage. Although it is still cramped, the army is different from usual. I want to have teachers."

You can also take care of yourself and you won’t feel disrespected.”

"Then, our army will give it to Shu Xiu as a recruitment tool."

"Also, Xi'er, you have to take away all the wine and drinks in our army. You can put them together with my twenty jars of wine and give them to all the gentlemen."

"The rest is still there. How about a monthly salary of fifty catties for each teacher?"

Liu Bei explained the arrangements.

Li Mengxi nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

Liu Bei's family was born and raised in the Han Dynasty, and they were much more familiar with the customs and social customs of the Han Dynasty than Li Mengxi. The entertainment specifications arranged by Liu Bei were very suitable.

So, next, five pallets that were in urgent need in the army were freed up.

Meat was in short supply in the army. He had just killed a cow and a mule yesterday. In addition to dividing the meat between the women and children camp and the wounded soldiers camp, Li Mengxi was reluctant to eat the rest. He planned to save it as a reward for the soldiers after they achieved military merit.

Send it on.

However, even Li Mengxi could not bear to eat more meat. In order to hire a teacher, Liu Bei took a lot of meat from the baggage team, and each bundle was no less than ten kilograms of meat.

Then, Li Mengxi finally collected the water and wine to prepare distilled spirits for use in treating the wounded, but this time twenty jars were gone.

According to Li Mengxi, damn, what happened to the scholars? They have become refugees. I ask you to teach the children because I think highly of you and to give you face. If I can reward you with a few kilograms of food, I think I think highly of you. What the hell do you think?

Taking a car, I also want meat and wine.

Tui!

No matter how unhappy Li Mengxi was, he could not change the fact that twenty literate people were hired and the army spent a lot of supplies.

At least two hundred catties of meat and twenty jars of wine.

These materials are great for the military camp. The wine is kept. Twenty jars of water and wine can steam out five jars of strong wine, and how many wounded people can be treated.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shu Xiu and wine are for the teacher.

Li Mengxi would also be involved in educating children, and was also the chief instructor of the soldiers. He usually taught the soldiers how to count, so Liu Bei took Shu Xiu and a jar of wine and also sent it to Li Mengxi.

Li Mengxi laughed when he saw this.

"Mr. Xuande, why do you and I need to see each other outside?"

"Hey, two different things!" Liu Bei straightened his face, and then said seriously, "Xi'er, I've given Shu Xiu to you. You already have a lot of skills. When you teach a little kid, you can't hide your secrets!" Liu Bei teased Li Mengxi.

.

Li Mengxi laughed loudly, "I will do my best!" Li Mengxi responded solemnly.

Liu Bei brought wine and meat to Li Mengxi and was about to leave. Li Mengxi threw the meat to his brother who was greedy for meat.

The teacher has made arrangements so that in the future, both soldiers and children can learn writing.

Starting today, in addition to mathematics, the military can offer Chinese courses.

After a while, Liu Bei said goodbye and left.

After Liu Bei left, his younger brother picked up a piece of beef from his elder brother. It was probably the beef thigh. Liu Bei specially selected a good piece of meat and brought it over.

"Brother, let me eat some meat for you." The younger brother was drooling, but he didn't take a bite first. Instead, he wanted Li Mengxi to eat it first.

At a young age, my younger brother knows how to respect his elders.

Meat actually doesn't taste good, Li Mengxi thinks so. Li Mengxi doesn't want to eat meat without seasonings and spices.

"Brother doesn't want to eat, you come and eat." Li Mengxi smiled.

The younger brother refused and insisted that the older brother take a bite of the meat first.

Li Mengxi couldn't resist his silly brother's kindness, so he took a small bite.

Then, when the teeth bite into the flesh, it is extremely difficult to bite off the flesh.

The stewed meat must have been overheated. The meat is as hot as a fried rice dumpling. You can't bite it. Damn it.

Li Mengxi had no choice but to stop talking, take out the short knife from his waist, and use a not-so-sharp knife to cut the meat into pieces with difficulty, and then put it into the small bowls where the two brothers ate.

After a long time, in order to cut the meat, Li Mengxi made his hands full of oil. Finally, he cut two bowls of beef slices.

Li Mengxi was not good at cutting, so he cut off a large piece because he was tired of cutting.

"Uncle Tie, let's try the beef." Li Mengxi smiled and brought one of two bowls of beef of about the same size to Lao Tie who was driving.

Lao Tie, who was looking back, quickly moved his face towards Li Mengxi, refusing to take Li Mengxi's meat.

Finally, under Li Mengxi's insistence, Lao Tie felt a little embarrassed and took a small bowl of beef and ate it happily.

Not only was the coachman Lao Tie, but Li Mengxi also called on two hard-working messengers, Wang Lin, his uncle and nephew, and gave them another bowl of meat.

Then, Li Mengxi and his brother slowly cut the beef piece by piece with a knife and ate it.

The younger brother finally had delicious meat, and he was very happy.
