The promotion is over.

The people of Taishan went crazy and robbed all the pinyin manuals in the bookstore.

Zheng Xuan had no choice but to order Cai Yong to continue printing for twelve hours to ensure sufficient supply.

But despite this, it still took a full five days before there was no more looting.

Since the booklet is only about the size of a palm, it is very easy to carry. No matter where you go, you can see people learning Pinyin. Among them, businessmen are the most active.

The accompanying"Three-Character Classic" and"Thousand-Character Classic" with pinyin for learning were sold out as soon as they were published, and it was unimaginable!

Zheng Xuan also arranged for relevant teachers to open a night school without affecting the normal teaching of Taishan Academy, specifically to provide help to people who encountered difficulties in the process of learning Mandarin.

Under this series of measures, Taishan's enthusiasm for learning Mandarin was extremely high. It only took half a month to create a wave of Mandarin learning!

What's more, people are already using Mandarin to communicate with others. Although it was a little awkward at the beginning, no matter the government officials or students and teachers, they all speak Mandarin. Gradually, people have begun to adapt to this language. environment.

Someday.

In the political hall.

After Wang Hao finished handling government affairs, he invited Zheng Xuan to be his guest.

This time, he wants to strike while the iron is hot, hoping to introduce new things to help students learn.

The two of them currently communicate in Mandarin.

Zheng Xuan leaned over and cupped his hands and said,"I wonder what Yun Yi has come to see me for?"

Wang Hao did not hide anything and said softly:"To be honest, Master Zheng, during this period, I was wandering around the city and found that our Taishan Mandarin The atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger, which is a good thing"

"But......"

Wang Haofeng twisted his eyebrows and said,"Whether it is the Three Character Classic or the Thousand Character Classic, it provides too few pinyin words. It can satisfy enlightenment, but it cannot satisfy daily life." Use it."

Zheng Xuanyi nodded:"What Yun Yi said is absolutely true. I didn't think there was a problem before. After trying it for a period of time, I did find that there were a few words that could be spelled."

"Some people even apply pinyin at will according to their hometown dialect, resulting in multiple pronunciations for one word. It is still implemented in Taishan, and we can still control it, but once it is implemented nationwide, I am afraid it will be difficult to control"

"exactly!

Wang Hao nodded solemnly:"That's why Hao just came to discuss with Master Zheng. Why don't we compile a dictionary to collect commonly used characters in the world and notate them to meet the daily needs of the people?""

"dictionary? Zheng

Xuan said with great interest:"Don't mention it, it's really a good idea. The movable type in our printing factory is enough for use. You can just engrave the pinyin directly on the movable type. The speed will be very fast!""

"We both thought of it together."

Wang Hao was overjoyed. Movable type printing is a collection of commonly used characters in the world. After so many years of use, it has almost reached a state of perfection.

With the foundation of movable type printing, compiling a dictionary with pinyin markings will solve many problems. Most of the problems!

It’s just that......

Wang Hao's idea goes far beyond that:"Master Zheng, adding pinyin to commonly used words is only the first part of my plan. This stage is mainly to promote Mandarin.""

"oh? Zheng

Xuan was greatly surprised and leaned forward:"Is it possible that Yun Yi has other ideas?""

"Of course! Wang

Hao said with certainty:"Since it can be called a classic, we can't just be satisfied with pinyin. We can also study Xu Shen's"Shuowen Jiezi" to analyze the world's characters one by one, and then use their regular usage, etc. Only when it is compiled into a book can it be called a dictionary!

Zheng Xuan's eyes suddenly brightened:"Wonderful!" How wonderful!"

"Yun Yi, this is an extremely huge project, and I'm afraid it won't be realized in a short time."

Zheng Xuan thought for a moment, pinched his goatee and said

"In the past, it would have been difficult. Wang

Hao said his own method:"But with the current Taishan Academy, if you want to compile a dictionary, it actually doesn't take too long at all.""

"Master Zheng can allocate some of these tens of thousands of movable characters to each teacher and order them to consult relevant classics and history books and compile the annotations and common usage. Master Zheng, my father-in-law and others only need to review them."

"In this way, in as little as three months or as long as half a year, the first draft will be completed! The rest is just continuous proofreading. In about a year at most, a dictionary will be completed! Zheng

Xuan suddenly said,"Yun Yi is really a great talent. Okay, let's do it like this!" Wang Hao leaned forward and raised his hands:"

Then......This matter troubles Master Zheng."

Zheng Xuan assured:"Yun Yi can rest assured that a simplified version of the dictionary with pinyin will be printed at the latest in half a month, and the standard dictionary will be arranged at the beginning of the year. The first draft will take half a year, and in two years, the dictionary will be reborn."

He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, looking at Wang Hao with eyes full of admiration.

For a moment, Wang Hao was a little startled.

Wang Hao was slightly startled:"Master Zheng, why are you looking at me like this? Do I have such a face? Dirty?

Zheng Xuan said softly:"No!" I just want to know, Yunyi, why you have so many novel ideas in your mind!"

Wang Hao:"This......Even I don't know much about it."

Those who traveled through the magical horse cannot explain to Zheng Xuan, otherwise they will be scared to death.

Naturally, Wang Hao is not willing to explain. This feeling of being worshiped by a big boss is actually quite good!

Zheng Xuan pondered for a moment and spoke. He said:"Maybe it's because you are young, the old man really can't keep up with the ideas of you young people."

After that, Zheng Xuan stood up slowly, cupped his hands and clasped his fists:"If nothing happens, then I will leave."

Wang Hao sent Zheng Xuan away, and when he returned to the front hall, Cheng Yu flashed out from the side:"My lord, it is almost the end of the year, and you have made waves in the Qingliu world with the help of the dictionary and pinyin."

"Let's take this opportunity to test the resistance to being promoted to duke. If the resistance is small, the lord can take advantage of the opportunity to be promoted to duke. If the resistance is big, Yu can make some preparations in advance.

Wang Hao thought about it carefully and nodded:"Okay!" No matter what, you should be promoted to Duke, otherwise the civil and military officials will not be happy. You should pay attention to yourself and leave no trace!

Cheng Yu hurriedly leaned over and held up his hands:"Don't worry, my lord, I'll leave this matter to you!" I have already spread the news among the officials. A large number of people agree that the lord is promoted. This is the general trend!"

"The Lord just needs to wait for the good news!

Wang Hao hummed, waved his hand and said,"Go ahead and do it.""
