Chapter 275 Convincing craftsmen to set up a school

For Yan Kai, two people need to be able to teach a child carefully.

It would be best if he gets the strengths of both families and finally develops them.

But obviously these craftsmen did not have such a concept at this time.

Yan Kai asked the two of them again, but they both still insisted on their opinions.

As a last resort, Yan Kai could only say: "Master Chen, Master Ma, you two said that you discovered this good seedling first, but no one can tell clearly."

"If you are not willing to teach together, we can only use our old method in Kuoding County."

The two masters looked at each other, nodded and said, "Okay, come on over!"

The so-called old method in Kuoding County is rock, paper, scissors.

This method may seem like child's play, but it is actually the ultimate solution to the dispute.

For similar things that are unclear, Kuoding County all uses this method.

At the beginning, Yan Kai was having lunch next to the experimental field. His employer brought a pancake, and his west family brought two eggs.

Everyone wanted to eat it, but Yan Kai couldn't eat anymore.

You can't accept them, so if you accept two today, the county government office will have enough for you the next day.

In the end, Yan Kai had no choice but to say that it was rock, paper, scissors, and whoever won got it.

Over time, this method spread.

Usually there are no disputes in Kuoding County. Firstly, it is because of the good folk customs. Secondly, it is also because sometimes there are some small disputes, and everyone is really willing to use this method to resolve them.

In the end, Master Chen got what he wanted, while Master Ma could only sigh on the side.

Yan Kai said to Master Ma: "Master Ma, have you ever thought that the reason why you met such a good youngster is because you have come into contact with too few children?"

"Too little contact?" Master Ma thought for a moment and said, "There are really only about a dozen children who come here to help with the work."

That's right. Yan Kai clapped his hands and said, "Look, out of a dozen or so children, there is a good one, right? But in Kuoding County, we now have more than 400 children studying alone!"

In the current Kuoding County Academy, in addition to the children of the people of the old Kuoding County at the beginning, some of the people who came back from the Turks later had their families who escaped at that time, and they were all picked up.

There were also some who were not very old when they were kidnapped by the Turks, and Yan Kai also allowed them to enter the school.

This ratio is considered very low considering the current population of more than 30,000 in the county, but after all, the personnel structure of Kuoding County is different from that of other counties.

Now Kuoding County is full of young people, and more than 10,000 Silla women have arrived.

As long as families can be formed, the number of newborns in Kuoding County will definitely increase significantly in the next few years.

Master Ma still didn't understand what Yan Kai said: "So I have to test all the more than 400 children?"

"That's not necessary!" Yan Kai said righteously: "I think it's not just Master Ma who is troubled like this. From now on, I plan to conduct a talent search in our Kuoding County!"

"Taking a close look at talent?" Master Ma asked whether he understood or not.

"Yes!" Yan Kai said: "Actually, many children have never been exposed to things like yours. How do you know if they have such talents?"

"So I plan to set up a vocational school first. Let's do this. I'll invite all the craftsmen to a meal today and we can discuss it together!"

This was not Yan Kai's impromptu idea, but he had already planned this.

I just took this opportunity to bring it up today.

Because when the two were arguing just now, he saw many craftsmen nearby.

In fact, everyone has their own ideas about the inheritance of their own crafts.

In fact, Yan Kai originally planned to start a medical school.

After all, it has been said that Kuoding County is about to usher in the peak period of newborn babies.

The survival rate of ancient newborns was not that high.

Many will also endanger the mother's life during childbirth.

For this reason, Yan Kai planned to prepare for a rainy day and wanted to select dozens of smart and clever young people from Kuoding County to study medicine with Sun Simiao.

And among them there will be at least a dozen women studying gynecology-related knowledge.

You must know that in Sun Simiao's "Qian Jin Yifang" and "Qian Jin Yao Prescription" each of thirty volumes, three of them are about women.

There are 18 treatises in total, covering fetal maintenance, labor, postpartum diseases, etc. There are as many as 563 related prescriptions recorded.

In addition, Sun Simiao has also learned a lot of medical knowledge after the Tang Dynasty, and his understanding is deeper.

After the number of people increased, it was not enough to rely on him alone to treat the disease. It was not enough to add Yan Xiaoer at most.

He has already asked Huang Rong to find out which young women are willing to learn, whether they are from the Tang Dynasty or women from Silla who came later.

When I caught up with this today, I decided to start the vocational school I envisioned.

Yan Kai invited all the craftsmen to dinner, and everyone naturally gave him face.

Li Dazui and others have returned to their old business and started working in restaurants.

It's just that the charges are much cheaper than in the past, and the main customers are the people in the county.

Friends and relatives from nearby counties come here, and everyone is willing to come here to spend money.

Face!

In addition, the incomes of craftsmen and soldiers in Kuoding County are also very high, and they can afford this restaurant.

Yan Kai reserved the entire second floor of the restaurant, and it was packed with people.

Yan Kai didn't say anything at first. He just wanted to thank everyone for their contribution to Kuoding County and for letting everyone eat and drink well.

After three rounds of drinking, Yan Kai spoke out his thoughts.

"Master Chen and Master Ma had a little conflict today, and I think many of you are aware of it."

When Yan Kai said this, everyone looked at the two parties involved.

Master Chen was naturally happy, but Master Ma was certainly unhappy.

Yan Kai continued: "Actually, I have heard from several masters that they plan to accept apprentices, so I want to discuss with everyone whether this can be done..."

"Our county will fund a vocational school so that children of appropriate age can learn our craft!"

Seeing the expressions of some master craftsmen changing slightly, Yan Kai quickly said:

"It's not your unique craft, it's like an apprenticeship! For example, a blacksmith, just teach them the basics of smelting and forging."

"Whoever wants to teach, it is not compulsory. If you are willing to go, you can go. Our county will provide you with an extra salary."

"I do!" Master Ma raised his hand and shouted.

He understood it today and felt that what Yan Kai said made sense. You have to let him get in touch with this industry to know whether some children have talent, right?

A person who has never touched a gun needs to discuss whether he has shooting talent.

A person who has never seen a car is asked to discuss whether he has any driving talent.

Isn’t this all nonsense?

Seeing Master Ma's support, Yan Kai smiled and nodded.

Then I briefly talked about what I had said to Master Ma during the day.

Now many craftsmen think it makes sense.

In the past, when recruiting apprentices, many apprentices came to the door, and they then tested whether they were qualified.

This base is small, and the chance of finding good seedlings is also small.

If Yan Kai can get all the school-age children from Kuoding County, they think it is really possible to select many of their favorite apprentices.
