    Chapter 327: [Print]

    Li Chengqian said: "Master, don't worry, didn't we indicate on the list that if someone finds the correct pronunciation in the future, they can write a letter? Then we will wait."

    Yu Zhining also smiled and said to Confucius: "Brother Zhongyuan, don't worry, this matter can't be rushed for a while."

    Confucius continued to say worriedly: "The articles posted in the past two days were kept confidential, and these remote characters were not included in the list. Those who participated in today's One Word A Thousand Gold event know all the characters they can know, and don't know the ones they don't know. And  Those who have not participated in today¡¯s A Word A Thousand Gold event, even if they know it, they have no way of knowing which words to write in. So do we need to make up a list?¡±

    Out of confidentiality, this statement was made implicitly.

    Li Chengqian smiled, meaning he didn¡¯t post the obscure characters because he wanted to be on guard against fat people.

    "Of course you can. But Cheng Qian has a way!" Li Cheng Qian said to Confucius.

    Confucius looked at Li Chengqian.

    He said: "We can wait for the dictionary to be printed and annotate these words at the back of the dictionary, and indicate that these words are remote words without pronunciation. After people see the dictionary and know the pronunciation of which word, they can write in  ¡±

    Confucius and Yu Zhining looked at each other. Yu Zhining turned around and said to Li Chengqian: "I'm still thinking about it. It's all printed. Is it wrong to not have all the characters? But think about it. If things don't work out, don't force it. This character can't be done.  We cannot delay the printing of the dictionary, I have to admire His Highness¡¯s decisiveness again!¡±

    Confucius nodded and said, "This is indeed a good idea."

    Li Chengqian was praised by them.  He didn't raise his tail to the sky.  Instead, a way came to mind.  After thinking for a while, he said: "Master, I think these remote characters are nothing more than characters that have been lost in history. Some of them may not have any pronunciation at all, or they may be random characters created by the ancients.  There is no promotion and they are only in one or two unknown books, so they are meaningless words. Now when we compile dictionaries, these words are like things without roots and owners. Then we have  There are two ways to deal with it.¡±

    Confucius and Master Yu looked at him seriously.

    Li Chengqian continued: "The first is to give up, erase these words, and prevent these words from being included in the dictionary. Second, let's give him the phonetic notation."

    "When we compile a dictionary like this, aren't we giving phonetic notation to the words?" Confucius couldn't think straight for a moment.

    Li Chengqian smiled and said: "Master misunderstood, we personally made up the pinyin for him."

    "Oh, that's okay." Confucius nodded.  This is also a helpless move.

    Master Yu asked: "Should we call out a random sound?"

    Li Chengqian waved his hand and said: "Actually, there is some basis for it. Chinese characters. Their font structure and shape are all related to their meaning and pronunciation. Either they are image characters or they have radicals. These may be the pronunciation of the characters.  According to this, we can start from this aspect.¡±

    Both Master Yu and Master Kong nodded.  I very much agree with what Li Chengqian said.

    "As for the remote characters, they are called remote characters because they are not well understood by everyone, are not commonly used, and they cannot read them. If they don't even understand the character, then even if we create it and make mistakes, we won't be able to read it.  It will have too great an impact." Li Chengqian continued.

    "And because remote characters are not commonly used, getting these characters out sooner or later will not affect the use of dictionaries by ordinary readers. So our next task is to print the dictionary as soon as possible.  Let scholars all over the world understand pinyin and dictionaries first, that is the real truth!"

    After finishing speaking.  Li Chengqian looked at the two masters.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????!

    Master Yu applauded first.  He is a master who accepts new things more easily than Confucius. Li Chengqian is usually very optimistic about someone or something, and when he appreciates it, he will applaud vigorously, so Master Yu learned Li Chengqian's way of applauding, and now he  Li Chengqian's method was applied to Li Chengqian.

    Confucius was stunned for a moment, and then he clapped along with Master Yu.

    Li Chengqian chuckled.

    Confucius stopped first, touched his beard, and said to Li Chengqian: "Then, my task is to compile all the contents of this dictionary as soon as possible so that this dictionary can be printed as soon as possible!"

    Li Chengqian remembered something and said, "By the way, when I go to school tomorrow, I will tell you a radical index and a pinyin index."

    Confucius asked: "What is this?"

    Li Chengqian picked up a book, flipped through two pages, pointed to the words inside, and said: "These words are all"?It is concentrated in one book, and there are tens of thousands of words, which may be so thick. If you want to find the word you need, it is impossible to look it up word by word.  Therefore, there must be a search method that allows people to first find the word they are looking for, and then turn to which page to find the specific pinyin pronunciation.  "

    He touched his chin and said awkwardly: "If we do it this way, the workload will be huge again, and we will have to work hard in the future. These things are too complicated. I will go to Chongwen tomorrow.  Please tell the masters!"

    "No hard work, no hard work!" the two masters said quickly.

    Confucius paused and said: "Your Highness, these past few days, you and I have been discussing dictionaries and betting. This has delayed your admission to school. I'm afraid it's not good. We will have to talk about such a complicated method tomorrow."  , wouldn¡¯t that delay another day?¡±

    Li Chengqian waved his hand: "Master, the sage said that what you learn is put to use. This dictionary is a useful thing. Let's make this thing together. I have learned so many words from the masters. This is even more intensive than ordinary literacy. So,  If you don¡¯t learn any better than you usually do in class, why delay your studies? Besides, being able to apply what you have learned is something that benefits other people, isn¡¯t it more meaningful?¡±

    Li Chengqian put it bluntly, it would be better if he could delay class for one more day.

    Confucius nodded doubtfully.

    "Well, tomorrow Yu and Brother Zhong Yuan will wait for His Highness the Crown Prince!" Yu Zhining said with cupped hands.

    After finishing speaking, they both followed the other masters and left.

    Yu Zhining and Kong Yingda communicated quietly.

    Kong Yingda said: "Brother Yu Xian, His Highness said that remote characters can be left alone or completed slowly in the future. So today's word worth a thousand dollars doesn't need to be dealt with at all?"

    Yu Zhining said in a low voice: "Brother Zhong Yuan's words are wrong. If today's money is worth a thousand dollars, how can the scholars in the world know how profound Brother Zhong Yuan is?"

    "Oh, personal reputation has little to do with the accuracy of such grand events!"

    "Brother Zhong Yuan is wrong again. Your Highness is the one who decides. You and I can just do it."

    "But His Highness also makes mistakes sometimes."
