105. The first lesson on the Tang River
The matter of Du He climbing over the wall set the tone. On that night, several dolls handed over a guarantee letter to Tang Heshang, ensuring that they would never violate school discipline in the future! Tang Heshang just put away the guarantee letter and did not let the students of the 303 students read in front of all the students, so there was no need.
On that day, no one was beaten by his father. I don’t know if the parents deliberately gave their face to the doll.
The training and teaching training continued, but the students in the academy did not make any trouble. In a blink of an eye, the fifteen-day training was coming to an end, and the teachers also finished their first book.
On July 25, a thousand students bid farewell to the twenty left-hand soldiers led by Cheng Chubi in tears, and also ushered in the first vacation since the start of school. The vacation time was not long, only one day.
On this day, many ladies from noble families in Chang'an City looked at the dark-skinned dolls, looking distressed. More but fathers patted their children's bodies and said, "It seems to be stronger."
The poor students and ordinary students smiled and talked about the interesting things they encountered during this training, and shared the school's living standards with their family with a happy look on their faces.
On this day, Wang Xuance also received a special task assigned by his boss to him, creating more than a dozen special water dragons.
On July 27th, it arrived as scheduled. The morning sun shone on the streets of Chang'an, and the temperature suddenly pushed up with the residual heat that had not completely dissipated one night.
A thousand dolls wearing round-necked short shirts and straight-leg pants and wearing a cloth bag cross-body, walked to Tingfang early. If they didn't carefully observe the shoes under the dolls, they would definitely not tell who was from the nobles and who was a civilian.
At four o'clock, a thousand students lined up in forty rows, which looked pleasing to the eye. It can be seen that the results of military training are still good.
The people standing in front of the student team also changed from soldiers from Zuo Wu Guard to twenty hired teachers.
Standing on the reading stand were Li Gang, Yan Silu, Wang Xuance and Tang He.
There was a huge banner hanging on the reading stand, "The First Opening Ceremony of Chang'an College".
Wang Xuance walked to the trumpet and presided over the opening ceremony and said, "Dear leaders, dear teachers, and classmates:
Good morning everyone!
The golden wind brings joy and the fruits are fragrant. In this pleasant early autumn season, we gathered together with passion to welcome the first opening ceremony of our college!...
Now, please invite the Academy Director, Li Gang and Master Li to speak!"
Li Gang did not make a long speech, but only used the words of earnest teaching to require the children to study hard and not let down the training of the school and teachers.
After Li Gang, it was Tang He who spoke.
Walking to the front of the loudspeaker, Tang He shouted: "Previously, all the students had experienced half a month of military training. Some called them tired, and some female students called them painful! However, no one called them to withdraw!
This makes me very pleased, and I am pleased that you have a perseverance and unremitting heart! The sea of knowledge is endless and boring, and you will always be tenacious! Especially the study in Chang'an College may be even more boring, and you need a perseverance mentality and character.
Speaking of this, maybe everyone is confused. What to learn from Chang'an College?
Confucianism?
Computational?
Or something else?
Now, I will tell you what Chang'an College will teach you and what you need to learn!”
He took out a water dragon made by Wang Xuance, and with his back facing the sun at a 45-degree angle, Tang He continued to speak: "Students, look carefully!"
The Tang River suddenly exerted force, and the water in the water dragon erupted in a mist. Soon, a seven-color ribbon appeared in the place where the water mist gathered.
That's a rainbow!
The dolls in the audience covered their mouths with their hands in surprise, fearing that they would scream.
That's a rainbow, that's a miracle!
What if you make a sound and the miracle disappears?
It was at this moment that the water dragon in Tang He's hand immediately stopped spraying water, and the rainbow disappeared quickly.
Then, water sprayed on the Tang River again, and the rainbow appeared again!
After repeated several times, Tang Heshang finally stopped and turned to the trumpet and said, "Did you see it?"
"See it!"
The students replied in unison.
Nodded with satisfaction, Tang He Shang said, "This is one of the things you are going to learn! Some call it the truth, and some call it the essence of all things!"
The students in the reading stand were all excited and blushed. We actually wanted to learn to create a rainbow! This is amazing!
I only heard the voice on Tang River again: "Students, rainbows are not miracles. When you learn, you will find that this thing is easy to make. I will not tell you the specific reason for its formation now, because you need to find this knowledge yourself in the book!
What you will learn is the essence you see through things, not just what you see!
You need to know why the sun rises from the east and sets from the west; you need to know why birds can fly in the sky; you need to understand why ships can sail on the water; you need to know why the fruits fall to the ground after they ripen, rather than flying into the sky!
If you learn this knowledge to the extreme, you will find that people actually have a way to fly into the sky with tools!
If you learn these knowledge, you will be able to create tools that carry you to the sky!
Even, one day, your children and grandsons may go to the moon instead to see if there are any gods above!
However, there is a prerequisite, you must study it carefully, learn it well, and be able to use it! Do you have confidence?"
"have!"
"have!"
"have!"
Three responses of a thousand people gathered throughout the school.
Tang Heshang smiled with relief and said, "Okay! Just be sure! But before this, you must study every lesson carefully, regardless of Confucianism, mathematics or investigation!
No matter how boring and annoying these courses are for you, you must study them seriously, because these courses are the foundation of everything! Just like our college, the classrooms are three floors high and the dormitory is five floors high! They can stand because of their foundation, and they have dug three floors downwards!
Students, come on, study! Learn all the basic courses well, lay a solid foundation for your interests and your confidence! This is the first lesson I will teach you on Tang He!”
After Tang Heshang finished speaking, he stopped talking, and the children in the audience were completely excited.
Chapter completed!
