When the three of them returned to their residence that night, they found that Dai Yingda had quietly ordered a batch of gifts.Naturally, Bai Letong was not very interested in this, so Ning Zi took the gift list and checked the contents of these gifts.
"This Dai Yingda is very generous!" Ning Zijing took a look, and knew that these things were of great value: "Most of them are antiques, calligraphy and paintings of famous people, it seems that a lot of thought has been put into them!"
"Let me see!" Tao Hongfang became interested when he heard the words, and took the gift list from Ning Zijing.
"He was probably worried that yesterday's debate would offend us, so he wanted to do something to save it. Presumably he also knew that we would not be interested in gold, silver, jewelry and other properties. This is just trying to please us Happy!" Bai Letong obviously lacked affection for Dai Yingda, and there was no expression on his face when he said these words.
Dai Yingda already knew the true identities of the three of them, so he would naturally avoid offending these "princes" from Sanya.Yesterday's meeting can be said to have broken up badly. This may also be a small setback for Dai Yingda who wanted to curry favor with Haihan's high-level executives. In order to save the situation, he took the initiative to show his favor to them. These gifts are considered a stepping stone.
It was not the first time for the three of them to receive a gift delivered to their door after they came to Hangzhou, but yesterday's meeting with Dai Yingda was not very pleasant. Whether or not to accept this gift needs to be decided.
Of course, Tao Hongfang and Ning Zijing didn't particularly mind this, it mainly depends on Bai Letong's intentions.
"Le Tong, what do you say? Are these gifts accepted or returned?" Tao Hongfang asked proactively.
Bai Letong hesitated for a moment before responding: "The overall situation is the most important thing, let's accept it, there is no need to make trouble with him!"
The actual value of these gifts is of course not the details that Bai Letong cares about, but if Dai Yingda's kindness to release is rejected, it may affect the cooperation between Yangzhou salt merchants and the local government, and then affect the great cause of moving the capital. The gain outweighs the loss.What's more, the matter of the imperial examination has been fully explained from Shi Diwen, and Dai Yingda is not the person leading the matter, so there is really no need to continue to get angry with him.
After Bai Letong finished speaking, he seemed to think of something again, and immediately added: "I guess this Dai Yingda has also been concerned about our movements, and confirmed that we visited Uncle Shi today, so he sent a gift to show his attitude."
Tao Hongfang said with a smile: "Maybe after we finish talking with Uncle Shi, Dai Yingda will know the result. Don't forget that Shi Chengwu and that Dai Chengrong are acquaintances, and any news will probably reach Dai Yingda soon."
Ning Zijing said: "It's even possible that Uncle Shi instructed him to do the gift itself."
This time, the three of them can be said to have learned a lot from a pitfall, and soon imagined various possibilities.However, as Bai Letong said, whether or not to accept this gift at this time is irrelevant to them, but considering the overall situation, even if they know that these gifts in front of them have a strong purpose, they can only accept them first .
But after this battle, Bai Letong's enthusiasm for the township test has also greatly diminished, and he even lost interest in going to the township test to sit in the office.He wholeheartedly wanted to promote the use of examination questions that were closer to Haihan's situation in the township examination, but since Shi Diwen had already arranged for it, it was impossible to change the examination questions, and other preparation matters were also in charge of special personnel, so he didn't need to worry about it.
Now that the sense of participation in the rural examination has been severely reduced, Bai Letong is more willing to spend his time on other things instead of going to the rural examination and being an idler with nothing to do, facing faces like Peng Yushan and Lu Qiu all day long.Fortunately, the jurisdiction of the Donghai Region is quite large, and there are many scenic spots in Hangzhou alone to pass the time, so he doesn't have to worry about having nowhere to go.
As for whether prolonged absenteeism would cause trouble, Bai Letong didn't need to worry. Those people from the Township Experimental Office would probably be deeply relieved to see him disappear out of thin air, and no one would care about his absence.
"I've been in Hangzhou for so many days, and I haven't found time to take a good look around the local area. I'll hire a carriage tomorrow, and let's have a good time for a few days!" After Bai Letong put down the burden on his shoulders, his enthusiasm relaxed. For a while, I have no other plans except to travel around the mountains and rivers.
Tao Hongfang and Ning Zijing looked at each other, and they understood that this brother was too frustrated and couldn't adjust for a while. He needed to change the environment to change his mood, and they both agreed with his plan at the moment.
However, the plan is not as fast as changing. The next day, Bai Letong was still packing up his personal belongings to be taken out, when he heard someone outside calling his name loudly, the voice was very familiar.He put down what he was doing and went out to have a look, only to find that Ha Jianyi had returned.
"Le Tong, I happen to have something to ask you!" Ha Jianyi skipped the greetings after seeing Bai Letong, and went straight to the topic: "Does the Ministry of Culture and Education arrange teacher training every year?"
Although Bai Letong didn't know his purpose, he nodded his head and said, "The Ministry of Culture and Education has a special teacher training program, which recruits people from schools at all levels for special training and makes them become teachers. Teachers will also have corresponding advanced training. Training, improving their knowledge and teaching ability. Why are you asking about this?"
Ha Jianyi did not respond to his question, but continued to ask: "This means that we will continue to train new teachers and provide them to schools everywhere, right?"
Bai Letong said: "At present, the main focus is to train primary school teachers, so that more schools can be opened in various places, so as to maximize the literacy rate of the people. I don't think I need to explain the reasoning in detail. Bar?"
For agricultural societies, the level of literacy does not seem to have a significant impact on the improvement of social productivity, but Haihan needs a large number of industrial workers if it wants to industrialize in the seventeenth century, and this requires practitioners to have a certain degree of culture. Base.Especially for positions with certain technical requirements, you even need to master some knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry to be competent.
In order to meet such needs, Haihan's cultural and educational industry also took advantage of the trend to list literacy as one of its educational goals.To achieve this goal, a large number of basic education institutions and education practitioners are one of the necessary conditions. Therefore, the Ministry of Culture and Education spends a lot of resources every year on training teachers, and then through these teachers to achieve literacy education for the people.
In areas where relevant activities are carried out relatively well on Hainan Island, such as Sanya, a central city, where the recognition and reading of [-] Chinese characters is the passing standard, the literacy rate of the people has even exceeded [-]%, which can be called the highest of the times, even higher than that of literati. The Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, where there are many generations, are much higher.And the results and influences obtained from this are far more than simple literacy.
