I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

Besides Li Shimin, there was another reason why Zhang Nuo didn't pay much attention to this matter, that is, Zhang Nuo didn't really mind whether Datang would be changed.

That's right, don't look at Zhang Nuo who is spared no effort to add bricks and tiles to Datang, making Datang change with each passing day, but in fact, it doesn't make any difference to him whether the empire's surname is Li, or whether it is called Datang .

What he cares about is the development and continuation of this blood-connected nation, and what he cares about is the inheritance and development of this cultural inheritance that has lasted for thousands of years.

As for who sits in that seat to rule and take care of everything, in fact Zhang Nuo really doesn't care, after all, to put it bluntly, even if he wants to leave now, can't he find a place to live a good life?

Who can stop him?

After all, with the support of the system father behind him, he may not be able to destroy a country by one person, but if he is determined to leave, he can actually go anywhere in the world.

It is precisely because of his open-mindedness that Li Shimin feels that this is what a real god-man does. He does not care about wealth, power, and status in the world, but is very open-minded.

Zhang Nuo's support actually gave Li Shimin a lot of motivation. Don't think that he really has no pressure to face all this. After all, it is not just one or two people, but a whole group.

Not to mention that there are his brothers and sisters in it. He originally had a bad reputation among his brothers and sisters because of killing his brother and imprisoning his father to grab the throne. Everyone will respect him.

Of course, it's not just them who stay away from each other. In fact, after the original princes and vassals became ordinary nobles, although they can freely choose their own lives, it may not be easy to see Li Shimin in the future.

Li Shimin was busy with his major affairs, and it was impossible for Zhang Nuo to be idle all the time. After all, he still carried the position of the head of the Datang Expeditionary Army.

For Zhang Nuo, there is no doubt that he will win this battle, but how to fight well and how to achieve more strategic goals is something that requires his brains.

The new batch of rotating soldiers and the soldiers who are about to enter the third battlefield have already started emergency training in the rear. Although Zhang Nuo is thinking of using battle as a substitute for training, it is impossible to teach a group of recruits nothing. Just throw it over regardless, if you really do that, then it's not using battle as a substitute for training, it's killing people and killing people's lives.

However, because of this arrangement, the third battlefield cannot be opened in a short period of time. After all, fighting a war is not a child's play, and it does not mean that it can be sent to the battlefield after a few days of training.

At present, the air force and the army have formed a set of rough but effective basic tactics and basic training methods. Judging from these things alone, there are still people in the military who are willing to use their brains.

But there is also a problem here, that is, just the above training items, it takes at least two months to complete the basic part, and this is the result of everyone's hard work and overtime work.

Otherwise, according to the principle of gradual and orderly progress, it will actually take at least three months.

The war couldn't be advanced on a large scale, and Zhang Nuo couldn't just watch, so he turned around and devoted himself to the government affairs construction of his little apprentice.

Li Chengqian almost jumped up and cheered. For him, the past month has been too difficult.

It never occurred to him that language and communication are such important and troublesome things.

God knows how his teacher opened up the situation so quickly when he was in Korea. He only knows that there are people here who are asking for all kinds of tricks every day, and they are asking for the same thing, which is translation.

It's impossible to get around in this damn place without an interpreter.However, this ghostly place itself has more than one language, and some places even don’t even have their own characters. The language is passed down by word of mouth. Yes, it is even more difficult than ascending to the sky.

When Zhang Nuo first arrived at Li Chengqian's place, what he saw was the scene of Li Chengqian scratching his hair in an extremely tangled situation. Naturally, Zhang Nuo was extremely familiar with this kid, so he also knew that it wasn't that he was extremely troubled and depressed. This flamboyant brat who usually pays attention to etiquette and demeanor would never do such a thing in public.

And since he did this kind of action, it naturally proves that this kid has encountered a problem that he can't solve, and a master is to help his students solve problems.

Li Chengqian's eyes lit up when he saw Zhang Nuo coming in, and he felt a great deal of relief. Now he clearly knows that his master is not omnipotent, but this does not hinder Zhang Nuo's tall image in his heart .

Although his master is not omnipotent, but in terms of knowledge, no one has shown that he is better than Zhang Nuo.

Therefore, Li Chengqian instantly felt that his big trouble might be in the eyes of the master, so that's it!

Chapter 912 Teacher Zhang Nuo Has Started Class

After Zhang Nuo heard Li Chengqian's thoughts, he couldn't laugh or cry!

"Apprentice, although you worship master so much, I am very happy, master, but I am really not omnipotent, master, and I can't just let your master finish everything!"

"Think about it, in a few years, when your father gives you the throne, I will definitely accompany your father to retire, and then you and my mother-in-law plus your parents, the four of us will go out for a tour, You’ve gone on a whim, and you’ll have to solve your own problems when the time comes!”

When Li Chengqian heard Zhang Nuo's completely irresponsible statement, it was inexplicably funny, because this is actually what his master really looks like, he is really lazy!

Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, or in legends, Zhang Nuo is an extremely intelligent wise man who is so wise that he is almost a monster, and at the same time, he is also an invincible commander who has made great achievements in the world, but in fact, in the eyes of familiar people, Zhang Nuo is the most famous The most characteristic character is laziness!

That is really the kind of person who is too lazy to earn money!

So when he heard Zhang Nuo's reckless statement, he actually knew very well in his heart that although the master said so loudly, in fact the master is hard-spoken and soft-hearted, and he will definitely talk endlessly later Helped him out.

Sure enough, Zhang Nuo didn't disappoint him. Although he was talking obsessively one second, Zhang Nuo was giving him advice the next second.

"Chengqian, in fact, such a thing can't be helped. In fact, you not only have to think from the position of a local governor, but you also have to think from the position of an emperor!"

"Although you haven't taken over yet, your father is still the emperor, but this does not prevent you from constantly training yourself how to be a good emperor, and at the same time make plans in advance for your future succession!"

"You can't wait until after the succession to get everything, especially some plans, which may span more than ten years or even decades, and require the efforts of two or even several generations of emperors, so why not put your List out your ideas and start implementing them when your father is in power!"

Li Chengqian became serious when he heard Zhang Nuo say this. He knew that both his father Li Shimin and this mentor in front of him actually had very high expectations of him.

He has also been treating himself with high demands.However, I have to say that knowledge may be obtained by working overtime, but experience and experience can only be obtained through the precipitation of time and one's own thinking.

Under the joint training of Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo, Li Chengqian is more than one dimension stronger than other princes and even princes of all dynasties in terms of knowledge.

However, some things cannot be taught simply by books or orally. He must experience, think, and summarize by himself in order to gain something.

For example, what Zhang Nuo taught Li Chengqian now is to look at the development of a thing as an emperor even though he is clearly not an emperor, and at the same time he has to find his own way.

This kind of thing is undoubtedly very difficult. It is said that if you are not in your position, you will not seek your own affairs. It does not just refer to the limitation of the position. Individuals should do their own things well.

There is another explanation. In fact, if you don’t sit in that seat for a day, you won’t be able to truly understand the true feeling of that seat for a day.

Perhaps Li Chengqian had tried the taste of supervising the country in the past few years, but it was just dealing with some daily affairs, but he never tried to view and arrange the development of a country from the perspective of the emperor.

The development of a country, especially at the strategic level, is absolutely impossible to be determined by brainstorming. There should be preliminary research, theoretical support, data analysis, strategic framework and implementation methods.

How can these things be explained clearly in a few simple words?

Naturally, Zhang Nuo never sat in that seat, and naturally he didn't have the deep understanding of these things as Li Shimin, but how can ordinary people understand the explosion of Internet information in later generations?

To put it bluntly, if someone spends 1000 yuan on the Internet to find someone to consult on issues related to governing the country, any one who hangs out on the Internet for a long time will definitely tell you a lot of things in an instant. something to come.

This is the confidence that the era of information explosion brings to people. There are too many consultations on the Internet!

Although Li Chengqian was not blessed to experience those things in later generations, at least judging from the current situation, the education he has received has surpassed most people in this era.

Whether it's the strategies of governing the country or the so-called emperor's art that Li Shimin chatted with him from time to time, as well as the knowledge teaching that Zhang Nuo has insisted on for several years, they are actually just making Li Chengqian's vision more broad.

At least right now, Li Chengqian clearly knew that his master was trying to remind him, let him look at the problem from a different perspective, instead of instigating himself to rebel.

"Teacher, how do you think this lack of translation should be viewed from the emperor's point of view?"

Li Chengqian has nothing to hide in front of Zhang Nuo. Even if he understands, he will never pretend to understand, because Zhang Nuo told him a long time ago that you are actually hurting yourself by pretending to understand. If you said you understood and even tricked the teacher, then I will naturally not tell you about this, and who will be at a loss then?

Of course, there is another reason because Li Chengqian has been with Zhang Nuo for a long time, and even being beaten is a common thing, and he doesn't care if it will be embarrassing.

Zhang Nuo looked at Li Chengqian's open and frank appearance, and couldn't help sighing.

"You're honest, kid, but you're so proud of yourself that you don't understand. Where did you learn it?"

Li Chengqian didn't dare to answer back when he heard Zhang Nuo's complaints. He couldn't tell the truth that he learned it from his father, but fortunately Zhang Nuo didn't continue to dwell on it, and it was just a joke.

"Chengqian, as the ruler of an empire, sometimes you have to have the ability to be keen to find problems. For example, this time you are in Zhongnan because of the problem of lack of translation, and you are dizzy!"

"Then have you ever thought that translation is not only needed here, in fact, in the territory of Tang Dynasty, not to mention the huge difference in accents between the north and the south, even in the north, there are often different accents , The situation of different tunes in eight miles!"

"So, how do you think this kind of problem should be solved? If you are the emperor? Or do you never think about solving it at all?"

Chapter 913 The Meaning of Language

Li Chengqian was taken aback when he heard what Zhang Nuo said, yes, it seems that not only the people here can’t understand each other, but it seems that in the Tang Dynasty, in fact, many places have to bring translators when they come to Chang’an to do business. .

But then Li Chengqian felt a burst of frustration, obviously encountered the same problem, why can the master immediately think of the problem of the whole Tang Dynasty, but I can only notice the problem itself?

Annoyed, Li Chengqian directly threw this question to Zhang Nuo, making Zhang Nuo laugh at his stupid look,

"Chengqian, have you forgotten my character, your master? I am lazy! Only this lazy person can think of the best thing and get several results, and still think about it all day long. Save more effort!"

"what?"

Li Chengqian was speechless after hearing this explanation. Is it because I am not lazy enough that my vision and thinking are not broad enough?

Li Chengqian knew that Zhang Nuo was teasing him, but he didn't know how to refute it!

Looking at the child in front of him who was almost as tall as him, Zhang Nuo sighed in his heart, mother, this kid is already an adult by accident, is he already old?

Forget it, I don't want to, the more I think about it, the worse it gets, so I might as well talk about something else.

"Chengqian, thinking can actually be practiced. As long as you get used to every time you encounter any problem, secretly raise your horizons to think about the whole country, and at the same time think about the plan far away, then After a long time, you will gradually get used to this kind of thinking!"

Li Chengqian nodded knowingly, so it is like this, this kind of thing can still be cultivated, as expected, he is worthy of being a teacher, this is leading him to grow step by step.

But the immediate problem is still unresolved. Things like expanding the mind and broadening the horizon can be discussed later. The most important thing now is to see how the master solves this matter.

Zhang Nuo didn't drag it blindly, but sat aside seriously, looked at Li Chengqian and said seriously,

"Chengqian, before solving this problem, you must first understand one thing, that is, what is the meaning of language!"

Zhang Nuo did not graduate from a normal school, but he has seen and heard a lot, and he also understands that in many cases, children still have to think and summarize more, and they cannot just instill knowledge in the past, only through continuous thinking And summing up, talents will improve themselves step by step.

Zhang Nuo has been using this method for a long time. Even though Li Chengqian was less than ten years old at the time, Zhang Nuo would always ask various questions for Li Chengqian to answer. Boy, it's no wonder you can answer well.

However, you must answer, and you must think carefully about the answer you will get later!

Li Chengqian is obviously used to this, and after thinking about it for a while, he frowned and said,

"Teacher, in Chengqian's view, language is for communication. After everyone has a common language, they can communicate freely, and then business and government affairs will not be a problem in the future!"

Zhang Nuo nodded, seeing that Li Chengqian had no intention of continuing, he opened his mouth and said,

"Chengqian, this is actually the most basic function of language. After all, the reason why language can be produced is that people have the need to communicate. It is precisely because of this reason that language firstly meets the needs of local people. As for outsiders. Not being able to understand is not something they need to consider, and the language of a place is also a characteristic of a place, this is the so-called accent!"

Li Chengqian nodded in agreement. He understood this. This was actually what he just said, but it was not so deep. But he knew that the teacher must have other things to teach him, so he just listened carefully.

"Since the accent of a place represents the characteristics of a place, when the accent of a certain place spreads more and more widely, can it be said that the local culture represented by this language is spreading more and more widely? ?”

As soon as he said this, Li Chengqian suddenly felt a thunderous explosion in his head, my God!

He is no longer the boy who didn't understand anything. He walked from Lantian City in the beginning to Pyongyang City in Koryo and then to Fusang, and has been watching and learning by Zhang Nuo's side all the time. Now that he doesn't know the role of cultural invasion and cultural popularization, he can really find a rope and hang himself on the beam of the house to kill him.

And as the governor of Central South, he naturally also shoulders the important task of contributing to the spread and popularization of Tang culture. One of the reasons why he was worried about translation before was because he really needed to communicate with ordinary people in his daily work.

But on the other hand, it was also because he really wanted to promote Datang's culture and knowledge locally, so he was in a hurry to get a plan from Zhang Nuo that could make up for the lack of translation.

But what he never expected was that he had actually put the cart before the horse, or he never expected that the Mandarin Mandarin that he was accustomed to speaking on weekdays was actually an important part of the culture of the Tang Dynasty.

At this moment, Li Chengqian suddenly felt that he was such a failure. He was looking for a horse on horseback. He was thinking about solving the translation problem and promoting the Tang culture, but he didn't realize that the language itself was the foundation and the most important part of the Tang culture. important part.

Li Chengqian thought of it instantly after being reminded by Zhang Nuo.That's right, as long as everyone in this place has learned the Mandarin of the Tang Dynasty, then the government orders and culture of the Tang Dynasty will be unimpeded in this place.

At the same time, there will also be a situation here, that is, except for Tang Mandarin, other languages ​​​​cannot be used here at all. At that time, no matter what language they will use when they go out to be officials, study, or do business, they still have to think about it. Well?

Zhang Nuo could tell from Li Chengqian's flushed and pale face that Li Chengqian probably figured it out.All that's left, then, is to come up with a solution.

If it was something else, Zhang Nuo would let Li Chengqian think about it slowly, even if the final plan he came up with wasn't perfect or didn't work at all, it didn't matter, just try it first and then slowly adjust or modify it.

After all, how can he grow without these failure experiences.

But this time it's different. The so-called promotion of language and characters can be easily achieved by thinking of a way?This is not something that can be solved with a solid foundation in writing.

How many masters who have learned Chinese and Western skills will be organized for Pinyin in later generations to come up with it?What about Datang at this time, who else could there be besides Zhang Nuo?

Chapter 914 Tool Man Li Chengqian Go to Work Quickly

Zhang Nuo didn't delay any longer, and directly took out the complete set of pinyin, and put it in front of Li Chengqian.

Then let him learn how to read one by one like teaching elementary school students.

I have to say that pinyin is actually prepared for our square characters. As long as you master the basic usage, it is really convenient to use. This is why [-]% of people in the future still use pinyin to type.

It's nothing more than that as long as you can speak Mandarin, you can spell the word, instead of having to memorize the root like Wubi.

Li Chengqian is like this now, after figuring out what initial consonants, finals, and tones are, he turned his head and happily marked the pinyin word by word on a document that was thrown aside.

It looks like a toddler who just got a new toy, and it is the most elated time.

Zhang Nuo didn't stop him, and just watched from the sidelines. For Zhang Nuo, seeing Pinyin shine in Datang was actually a very meaningful and wonderful thing.

It’s not that I didn’t think of doing this at Lantian School before, but the Tang Dynasty at that time actually had its own language teaching materials, which was the rhyme book "Qie Yun" written by Lu Fayan in the era of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. This book included a full [-] Fifteen hundred words!

The book "Qie Yun" contains a total of 190 three rhymes, including 54 rhymes in the flat tone, 51 rhymes in the upper tone, 56 rhymes in the falling tone, and 32 rhymes in the entering tone.

There is such a book, and Li Yuan himself is still in Lantian City, if this is overturned, wouldn't it be a shame to old man Li.

However, it is different now. The continuous overseas expansion, the influx of a large number of foreign populations and the smooth traffic between the north and the south have made exchanges more frequent.

Then at this time, you need a good tool that can explain all the words reasonably and has the function of checking for omissions-a dictionary!

In fact, this thing has always been available logically, but there is no pinyin. I always feel that this thing is lacking in function. Zhang Nuo didn't care about it before. After all, he is lazy and sometimes really doesn't think so much.

Don't look at outsiders making him miraculous, but he himself knows that in fact, many times he really thinks about it as soon as he thinks about it. He really doesn't have so many backhands, foresight, etc. It's just that what he comes up with is basically They are all mature knowledge systems of later generations, and are born with follow-up scalability.

Even for other policies and technologies, one trick after another seems to be endless, but in fact, where is his wisdom? It is the precious experience left by later generations after crossing the river by feeling the stones. With the whole world as his backing, he has already embarrassed the senior traversers by becoming what he is now.
