Chapter 1203 (2/2)
After a pause, the old beggar said, ”however, some of the big Heng cities have already had words spread at this time!”
The old beggar's words are obviously in conflict with Chen Hui's knowledge, because Chen Hui only knows Cangjie's words in the myths and legends.
As for how words really appeared, Chen Hui did not know.
I didn't expect that at this time, the world just caught up with the creation of words?
What the old beggar said about characters is very obvious. The characters were decided by the emperors of the five ethnic groups. It must be a very long process, because there are many characters. Even if they appear in the form of hieroglyphs and are customized by five people, the emperors of the five ethnic groups will certainly appear. When they hold different opinions on the graphic expression style of a certain character.
Hearing the news, Chen Hui stood up and kept pacing back and forth in the conference hall, saying: ”learning, we must learn, writing is the root of everything, all things only rely on word of mouth, it is inevitable that there will be errors, and even the phenomenon of transmitting errors by error, writing must be learned.”
”If you want to learn writing, you have to go to Wangcheng!” The old beggar nodded and said, ”the characters have already spread in the capital city, which is what the emperors of the five ethnic groups intend to do. Moreover, the characters have a tendency to spread to Hengcheng City, but it must take some time to spread to the capital city. If adults intend to spread the characters in the capital city earlier, they just need to arrange people to live in the capital city for a long time, and it won't take long to learn!”
”Can you read, sir?” Chen Hui asked at this time.
”I know a little bit.” The old beggar nodded and said, ”but I've been traveling for many years. Over the years, there are new characters agreed by the emperors of the five ethnic groups. I know very little of these characters, and they don't play a big role.”
”No privacy, sir!” Chen Hui said in a deep voice: ”even if you can't read much, you must start to popularize these words, so that all the people in the capital can read!”
”If my lord intends, I will not hide.” Said the old beggar at once.
”The matter will be dealt with at once.” Chen Hui said in a deep voice: ”thank you, sir!”
After Peng and Jie came back, Chen Hui immediately told Peng and Jie about going to the imperial city to learn Chinese characters. He asked Peng and Jie to choose the right people to live in the Imperial City, and made a detailed plan. Every once in a while, he would go back to the capital city to teach the new characters to the capital city.
Although the capital city is not very rich, it can be done to arrange a person to live in the royal city for a period of time and learn writing.
Peng immediately selected a suitable person, that is, the first time hunting, hit the rabbit, nicknamed rabbit warrior guy.
This warrior is very young and has a strong memory, which is why he was chosen.
However, there is no need for him to start immediately, because the old beggar is literate. First, teach him the characters he knows. When he arrives at the king's city, he knows some characters.
Chen Hui's house began to be built on this day, and Chen Hui took the city Lord's mansion as a place for old beggars to teach, and the objects of teaching were the children in the capital.
Old beggars teach them characters and give them a task. After learning, when they come back home, they should teach their own adults the characters they have learned.
The rabbit warrior is learning with these children.
Pictograph is not difficult to learn, because it is quasi materialized. Although it is a little abstract, it is much easier to learn than modern Chinese characters. Some smart children can even say what a character is when they see the figure of a character close to the real object!
