Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 532 Look, the double-headed eagle!
Although the children's performance was not very successful, Tuo Huan and others were still quite satisfied. After all, given the current cultural level of the Purple Horde Khanate and the lack of intellectual talent, someone who can memorize two sentences of ancient prose and memorize some poems can already be regarded as an educated person.

"Next time, choose the teaching materials carefully, and then divide the classes for different children. It doesn't matter if there are not enough people. I will raise funds and hire another teacher." Zhu Wenkui said: "Don't let the children always be in the same class. Now that you’ve memorized these, let’s memorize the teachings of saints first.”

"Although I see that many people say that Huang Chao is cruel, there is nothing wrong with the poem itself. If everyone likes it, let them recite it." Guo Kang didn't care: "Anyway, we here can be considered cultured by reciting anything. …”

"It's not that cruel. I think the European side is much more cruel than him." Tuo Huan thought for a while and said, "And I feel like he won't rebel even if he's on our side."

"This..." Zhu Wenkui hesitated.

"Isn't it because he rebelled because the imperial examination was unfair and we didn't take him? If we here have the ability to write this kind of poetry, how could we not pass the examination?" Tuo Huan shook his head: "And, although Huang Chao looks like He didn’t have much military talent, but the Persians said that when he attacked Guangzhou, there were 120,000 Persians and Arabs in the city. These people organized armies and helped the government defend the city, so Huang Chao hated them."

"Although previous sieges were often defeated by the Tang army, Huang Chao was very successful this time. After defeating the Persian soldiers, they killed all of them, so that until now, there are not many Persians and Arabs there. . So no matter what, he is still much stronger than the Persians and Arabs. We can probably make a name for ourselves here."

"If you say that, it's true..." Guo Kang himself didn't expect this level.

"I can understand this. Who is born to want to make trouble?" Tang Sai'er also said: "Huang Chao is from Caoxian County, Jining Prefecture, and is also a fellow of our Shandong Province. I know the folk customs there very well. If the government had given some advice, Chances are, there probably won’t be so many things later.”

"Of course, what you said is also a solution." She thought for a while and commented: "I think this idea is also good. There are too many talents in the Central Plains. If everyone takes the imperial examination, there will be many unsuccessful ones. But we After going to sea for a while, I realized that the Central Plains is just a small part of Kyushu, and the outside world is much bigger."

"That's enough for you." Zhu Wenkui quickly asked her to stop talking: "What's wrong with you, Persian? You miss me every day."

Li Xiaobo looked at everyone curiously, and when Li Li shouted, he quickly saluted everyone.

"Let's not go so far." Zhu Wenkui stopped him: "Those things are all illusory. Let's start with the education in front of us."

"I can do it here." Li Li was still very positive. He turned to greet people and quickly pushed the three children out.

"I took in these children all the way, and I have been teaching them." After the introduction, he quickly said to Zhu Wenkui and Tang Sai'er: "The imperial examination cannot be held now, but let the children show their talents first. , is it okay? You can ask them to take the exam later."

"Yes, these two were taken in one after another when they first arrived in Dayuan. This one is the eldest." Li Li patted one of the boys and said, "At that time, he had no food to eat, so he secretly went to dig bamboo shoots in the fields of the big family and gave them to him. Someone caught him. When I passed by there, I took him away. So, I named him Xiaozhu. Come, Xiaozhu, I have met you all."

Li Xiaozhu looked at everyone and greeted everyone honestly.

"I feel that maybe we just think they should be a group, so we think they are 'not united.'" Tuohuan pointed out: "But that is just our idea, not theirs. Between Persians and Arabs, You have never considered the other party as one of your own, so there is no such thing as unity, right?"

"We lack information on the late Tang Dynasty and can only read a few words from the Persians. But I think they would not be so united. In history books, these barbarians are always regarded as a group, but look at the records of the late Yuan Dynasty , let alone the believers helping each other, even if the Persians are almost completely wiped out by the army, they have to kill the Arabs first. When it comes to this, it is normal that they cannot defeat Huang Chao. "

"That's true..." Guo Kang could only admit.

"That's not my fault. In the past, the people of the Central Plains would rather rebel and fight against the army than go out to sea. What else could we do?" Tuohuan felt that there was no problem: "Even our group, if we hadn't caught up, The strange dynasty of Dayuan probably won’t escape. Isn’t there nothing we can do about it?”

"This is the third child." Li Li finally pointed to the little girl standing next to him: "This was taken in by us when we passed by Syria. I'm not very good at naming girls, but she happens to be the third child. Three, so I imitated the third lady’s name and called her Li Saier.”

"It's better to organize all the fellow villagers and go out to fight the Persians, so that everyone can take the imperial examination." She said, as if she thought it made sense, and turned to Zhu Wenkui and suggested: "Oh, that's right, how about that? You write a letter to your grandfather and ask him to send you some people. I think Shandong—oh no, we scholars in Qingzhou Prefecture alone are enough to manage the whole of Persia."

As he spoke, he looked at everyone again: "It's a blessing for us that Taiji can take the time to come this time. Does anyone else want to show it off?"

"I've heard a lot of things along the way. The story just now seems to have happened more than once. When I was at Java Yuan, people who listened to them also told it once." Tang Saier thought for a while, I always feel that these things are familiar: "What they are talking about is that Persians and Arabs organized an army in China, but the group was destroyed. But that happened in recent decades, not that far away. It shouldn't be the time of Huang Chao, right?" "

"I heard from people in the Yuan Dynasty that back then in Quanzhou, the Sunni Arab Pu family had been suppressing the Shiite Persian leader Alimidine and others for many years. Alimidine took advantage of the chaos to rebel, and he was the first to attack Pu's son-in-law, Nawu Na, later united with the local Han nobles to attack and kill Alimeddin. When the Yuan Dynasty army came over, the Persians opened the city gates, took advantage of the chaos, massacred the Arabs, and demolished their temples. They dug up Pu’s grave.”

"This is the second child." He pulled another little boy over: "I found him at the beach. This guy was riding the waves and catching fish in the sea, so I called him Xiaobo. Xiaobo, come here. , salute—Xiaobo!”

"The people of the Yuan Dynasty were talking about the Yisibaxi military rebellion at the end of the Yuan Dynasty." Guo Kang also said: "There was actually a special reason for that incident. The Persians and Arabs were not very good at fighting, and they were particularly ununited. Isn’t this result normal?”

"I just thought, why are they coming to China and not us?" She asked, "Do you think our swords are not fast enough?"

"No problem, as long as you have the ability." Zhu Wenkui nodded, looked around, and saw the two boys, both with oriental faces, and a little girl with a European appearance, so he said: "This is not a It comes from a different place.”

After saying that, Li Saier also bowed and greeted everyone in a polite manner.

"They are all very good." Zhu Wenkui also said politely: "Then, what have these children learned?"

"Your Majesty, I'm so complimentary. I'm not very talented, but in addition to enlightenment, I also tried to teach something a little more in-depth." Li Li replied: "Although I can't say that I have learned policy theory, I have taught basic knowledge of world affairs as appropriate. Some."

"Then you should study hard." Tuohuan also stepped forward, patted Xiaozhu and Xiaobo, and encouraged: "Mr. Li is an educated man, and you guys should also learn more skills. Prince Wu's Mansion will also do this in the future It’s a big deal. When the time comes, you two can also work hard to make progress and strive to be a sage like Guan Zhong and Zhuge.”

"Thank you Taiji for thinking highly of them." Li Li said repeatedly: "How about you guys give them a test?"

"Okay, let the prince do it." Tuohuan waved his hand and said.

"Okay." Zhu Wenkui nodded and thought for a moment: "Let's ask about a recent topic. What do you think is the cause of the turmoil in the city and how should we deal with it?" "Isn't this too deep? ?" Tuohuan reminded.

"It's okay, just go a little deeper so we can better understand their thinking." Zhu Wenkui said, turning around and asking a few more children: "Do you have any ideas?"

"I do! I do!" Xiaozhu and Xiaobo both seemed to have a desire to express themselves and responded immediately and positively.

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious." Tang Sai'er looked at the little girl beside him who was hesitant to speak, and quickly stopped them: "Let my sister speak first, let my sister speak first."

Li Li pushed the two of them back and said to Li Sai'er: "The three girls have given orders, so don't be shy. You go first."

"Isn't it already certain? This is a problem caused by the domestic powerful and noble people being too arrogant and domineering." Li Saier said with some surprise: "As for how to deal with it, I think they have been dealing with it very well in the past few days. . It’s hard to say for other European countries, but the Roman court will obviously handle this problem on its own. If you read it in these ways, that’s the answer. You don’t need to use this as a test question, right?”

"Uh……"

Li Li seemed to want to say something, while others looked at Zhu Wenkui. But at this time, Li Xiaozhu said confidently: "My sister likes to talk big, so please leave her alone."

"She doesn't understand at all. It's definitely not simple for a gangster to cause such a big fuss." Xiaozhu shook his head maturely: "I think there must be other big countries supporting the bad guys within us. We should investigate it carefully. , especially to examine the outsiders in the city and stop their plots."

However, before he finished speaking, Xiaobo next to him was no longer convinced.

"You are talking nonsense again." Xiaobo said rudely: "We are also outsiders. What does it matter? The cause of this incident is obviously internal."

"The government has been unable to effectively manage such a large place in the city, and gangsters will definitely take advantage of it. If we want to deal with the problem, we must deal with this reason. Everyone, right?"

"It makes sense. Then tell me, what should we do?" Tuohuan encouraged.

"I heard that most of them are the most populous cities in Rome. The number of citizens gathered here is much higher than that of other places, even the cities there." Xiaobo analyzed: "There are too many people in this city, and it has reached a state of abnormality. The level exceeds the management capabilities of the government, so it cannot control it and allows powerful forces, gangs and other forces to take advantage of the loopholes."

"So, the solution is very simple, just reduce the population in the city. The foundation of Rome is the farms of the legions. And there are so many Greeks in the city, they are of no use at all. They should all be moved away to avoid causing trouble. More trouble.”

"What nonsense are you talking about? You can't see such a big foreign trouble, so you only know how to torment your own people." Xiaozhu accused unceremoniously.

"External aggression is not the most serious problem, internal problems are. A few days after the city gates were closed to catch thieves, the Greeks kept complaining that they had no food, and we, Prince Wu's Mansion, had to take care of them. There must be something wrong with this. ." Xiaobo also retorted: "I think you are just talking nonsense when you say you don't understand."

The two started to argue, and soon started fighting each other.

"Stop fighting!" Li Saier quickly went to start a fight.

The other people who were dumbfounded also reacted and told them to stop making trouble. Li Li was also shocked. His first reaction was to apologize to everyone in a hurry, forgetting to pay attention to them.

But Tang Sai'er was the fastest. He stepped forward, grabbed one person's ears with one hand, and pulled them aside.

"No, no, no, we can't inspect these naughty kids anymore today!" She complained loudly: "It was all an accident! I'm so angry! Let's stop here!"

"I think it's okay, it's quite fun." Tuohuan quickly comforted him.

However, Tang Saier looked very angry and couldn't listen at all. There is nothing others can do. Tuohuan comforted Mr. Wu a few more words, and asked the attendant to take out a piece of ham and give it to him as a reward. Then, he left here.

Before leaving, Tuo Huan noticed the largest machine in the middle and asked casually: "What is this?"

"It was given by the big businessman surnamed Sun." Zhu Wenkui said: "After the chaos in the city, he came to my door and told me that he wanted to bet with me because he was jealous for a while. But now that I think about it, Everyone is making a living overseas, and it is not easy. There is no need to make things difficult for each other. Although he failed to complete the previous competition, he felt that I could definitely do it. In this case, he just went with the flow and gave this thing to me. "

"This guy knows how to be a good person." Tuo Huan commented.

"I am indeed interested in this big guy." Zhu Wenkui admitted: "But the palace was blown up and there is really no place to put it, so I can only put it here first."

"I remembered." Guo Kang also had an impression, and out of curiosity, he asked: "Didn't I say that I would also give you the textile girl?"

"Oh, yes." Zhu Wenkui thought for a moment and replied: "But she only knows simple operations. She doesn't understand the specifications and craftsmanship of this machine, and she can't 'program' Hualou. It's completely useless."

"But it's normal to think about it. This is someone's business secret. How could you give it to her casually? I just left her with Miss Tang and helped her."

"Oh, that's good, as long as I can help."

Guo Kang didn't feel any surprise about this. He nodded and left with everyone.
