My life skills in Daming Liver

Chapter 18 The Dock
Lin Xianzong, a busy shipyard master under the warship, was busy for half a day, and finally got some free time. He raised his eyes and saw his grandson Lin Chun hiding behind Lin Liangjun. .

Lin Liangjun is the devil king of the guard, not to say that this kid bullies men and women, Lin Baihu's family style has always been good, and today's Baihu Lin Mojun can't let his younger brother do anything wrong.

This kid Lin Liangjun is the king of troublemakers in Changningwei. Almost all the people in Changningwei have been teased by him.

Lin Xianzong is a master shipyard craftsman and the best carpenter in Changningwei.

After he made a wooden short bow for his grandson Lin Chun half a year ago, he was stalked by the demon king Lin Liangjun, who pestered him to make some wooden toys from time to time.

If she shirks and refuses to do it, Lin Liangjun won't mess around, but be careful if she "happens" to step on dog shit when she returns home at night.

As the ugliest kid in Changningwei, Lin Liangjun has the ability to make all the elders walk around.

But how could the sharp-eyed Lin Liangjun let the old boatman go, he pulled Lin Chun out from behind, and shouted at Lin Xianzong:
"Uncle Zong! Your favorite grandnephew came to see you!"

Lin Xianzong's grandson, Lin Chun, showed an expression uglier than crying. Today he had to be pulled over by Lin Liangjun, and tonight he was going to be played in doubles by grandpa and father.

Lin Xianzong sighed, he knew how persistent Lin Liangjun was, and knew that he couldn't escape today, so he had no choice but to walk towards him.

Lin Liangjun smiled and said, "Uncle Zong, this is Brother Aze, the nephew of Ninth Aunt."

Lin Xianzong frowned when he heard Lin Liangjun's messy seniority, and then looked Su Ze up and down.

Su Ze entered the clan of the Ninth Aunt's family. Of course Lin Xianzong knew about it. During these days, Su Ze was peacefully opening up wasteland and farming, which made the Changningwei people have a good impression of him. After all, in the agricultural society of Daming , People who are willing to work hard will always be respected.

Lin Liangjun squeezed out a smile and said, "Uncle Zong, my elder brother wants to start the health school again, and my brother wants Ah Chun to accompany me to study in the health school."

Lin Xianzong naturally knew that Su Ze wanted to start the health school again.As the shipwright of Changningwei, he is also qualified to participate in clan discussions.

However, people in Changning Guard generally have little enthusiasm for re-establishing the Guard School.

It's not that people in Changningwei despise scholars, but that it's too difficult to study in Fujian!
From the time when the ancestors of the third generation started the health school, until the fathers of the hundreds of households abolished the health school, Changning Wei has also run the health school for three generations!

For three whole generations, none of them passed the county test!

We must know that passing the county examination in the Ming Dynasty only obtained the admission qualification for the imperial examination, and did not even have the privilege of a scholar.

In the heyday of Changningwei, no one could pass the county exam, let alone it has declined now.

Although Lin Xianzong loves Lin Chun's grandson, he also thinks it is a waste of time to go to the health school to study.

If you have the time, you might as well follow yourself to learn some ancestral crafts.

Lin Xianzong knew that Lin Liangjun was dragging his grandson to the ship, so he must be asking for something, so he said: "Fart, let go!"

Lin Liangjun smiled and said, "Uncle Zong, Wei Xue's table is broken, you are the best carpenter in Changning Wei, so I want you to fix it?"

Lin Xianzong thought about it, repairing the table is not a troublesome matter, looking at his grandson following Lin Liangjun, Lin Xianzong asked:

"You really want to study with him?"

Lin Chun is Lin Liangjun's follower. He is two years older than Lin Liangjun, but he has a very cowardly personality and is an honest child.

Hearing his grandfather's question, Lin Chun plucked up the courage to raise his head and said, "Grandpa, I want to study!"

Lin Xianzong looked at Lin Chun in surprise. His grandson has never had any opinions, but this time he is determined to study?

Su Ze said with a smile at this time: "Uncle Zong, reading is not just for the imperial examination, and I don't plan to only teach the Four Books and Five Classics in Wei Xue."

Lin Xianzong raised his head and looked at Su Ze. He heard from Uncle Lin Qi that Su Ze was a good farmer.

Ninth Aunt also said that he is a scholar, did not expect him to be a teacher?
"Not only study the Four Books and Five Classics?"

Su Ze nodded and said, "Reading and literacy is to broaden your knowledge. The imperial examination is a way, but it's not the only way."

Lin Xianzong looked at Su Ze suspiciously. Isn't this different from what the scholars in the county school said?

Su Ze pointed to the warships in the dock and said, "It's all knowledge to build a warship, how much material is used, and how long it takes to work."

"The Four Books and Five Classics are knowledge, and "Kao Gong Ji" is also knowledge. Reading and literacy are also good for carpenters."

This time Lin Xianzong was quite surprised, he was a shipwright in the Weisuo, he had his craft handed down from his family, and he also had a fragment of "Kao Gong Ji" at home.

Lin Xianzong was confident that his craftsmanship was at the forefront of Fujian's guards, and even the master craftsman of Quanzhou Guards was no better than himself, because he had studied this fragmented scroll.

Lin Xianzong didn't want his grandson to enter the health school, not because he opposed his grandson's literacy, but because he was afraid that his grandson would have the idea of ​​the imperial examination, and he would refuse to learn craftsmanship in a down-to-earth manner.

Lin Xianzong met a few old students in the county school, who were so stunned that they read all the books, they knew how to study all day long without giving birth, even their ancestral property was ruined, and they still failed the government examination.

After hearing Su Ze's "teaching philosophy", Lin Xianzong's attitude immediately improved a lot. He said:

"Leave the table and chairs, I'll fix them tomorrow when I'm free, and send them to the Wei School."

Lin Liangjun jumped up happily and said, "Sure enough, Uncle Zong loves me the most!"

Su Ze said suddenly: "Uncle Zong, I also want to help fix the table tomorrow."

Lin Xianzong looked at Su Ze suspiciously and asked, "Aren't you a scholar? Scholars also want to learn carpentry?"

It's not that Lin Xianzong wants to hide his private interests, but that carpenters are craftsmen, and their status in Ming society is far lower than that of scholars, even lower than that of farmers.

Hearing that Su Ze's knowledge is extraordinary, even if he fails the imperial examination, he is still a good farmer, so he wants to learn the carpenter's craft from himself?
Su Ze did not answer Lin Xianzong's question, but said to Lin Liangjun and Lin Chun:

"Tomorrow will be the first class I have with you. Xunzi said in "Encouraging Learning", 'The straight wood is the rope, the kneading is the wheel, and the music is the rule.'"

"This carpentry craft also contains great principles. Tomorrow our first lesson is to learn how to repair tables and chairs. Uncle Zong, is it convenient for you to see?"

Hearing Su Ze say the truth that he didn't understand, Lin Xianzong could only agree.

Su Ze smiled and closed the system prompt,
