editor in rural revitalization, can not do without cultural revitalization; and cultural revitalization, can not be separated from talent gathering. So, how to attract talents and retain talents with culture has become a major topic that needs to be tackled at all times. In order to complement the "short board" of the rural culture, promote the spirit of the peasants and promote the construction of rural civilization, all kinds of exploration and first try, such as the "Mr. School of Mr. Tian Ryu Jin" in Shouguang, Weifang, are adding a wonderful addition to the construction of the beautiful countryside.
the 90 year old lady is the permanent guest of the "Mr. school"
breeze in the village of "Mr. school" in the village. The two wooden doors shaky gently, from time to time the "squeaky" sound. There is a plaque above the gate, with four green characters on the "gentleman academy".
at 12 noon, after hearing the knocking at the door, an old man with a thinning hair opened the door, laughing and saying, "just a little bit of work, and shut the door temporarily."
this old man is Wang Zhiming, the village owner of Dong tou village, Tian Ryu Jin, Shouguang City, Weifang, and is also the owner of this "gentleman academy". In fact, this academy is transformed from the military ancestor house of the old man's son Wang.
a broad road divides the East head village into two parts of the north and south. There is a row of two storey buildings on each side of the road. Many villagers have transformed the first floor into various stores. In the middle of these shops, the small building with "Mr. school" is particularly unique.
Wang Zhiming said, when the ancestor house was transformed, many villagers came to visit and saw several paintings hanging on the wall of the newly formed academy, and it was not clear what a store was. "This is the exhibition of your son's paintings on the wall. Will you sell it for a high price in the future?" Someone once asked Wang Zhiming. On the right side of the academy is an old bicycle with a cross beam, and a flowerpot is placed in the basket, the handle of a car, the seat of a car, and even the crossbeam of a vehicle. Like this kind of flower frame transformed by bicycle, there is another one next to it. Next to the bicycle rack is a round pool. Wang Zhiming said he had raised two Brazil tortoises in the pond before releasing them to the Yellow River. The bike's head is a small road that is spliced with a stone plate and a stone, stepping on a stone road and entering the Academy. After opening the door, it is a big old room.

the ancestor house of the king's house has a big yard. In response to the village policy in 1999, Wang Zhiming occupied a part of the courtyard with two storey buildings, and the ancestor house was on the north side of the building. Wang Zhiming said, after the building was built, he took his wife and three children in, but his old parents were still willing to live in their ancestral home. "It was not until my parents died in 2003 that the ancestral home was completely abandoned." The ancestral home, which no one lived, became the warehouse of the Wangs.
last Spring Festival, Wang Zhiming and his wife were received new year's Eve in Yunnan by their son Wang Jun. Last year, sixteen, Wang Zhiming and his wife returned to Shouguang's hometown from Yunnan. The son who sent them home said one of his ideas. He wanted to transform his ancestral home into a college.
Wang Zhiming remembered a college he saw in Yunnan. "When my son took us to that academy, he didn't mention anything." The name of the academy is also called the "Mr academy". Wang Zhiming accidentally heard Chinese translation to introduce the academy to tourists. The founder of the Academy was Wang Jun, who translated to Wang Zhiming and said that this is Wang Jun's father.
"I knew at that time that the Academy was run by Wang Jun." Wang Zhiming mentioned the feeling at that moment and said, "happy." So when I returned from Yunnan to Shouguang's hometown, I heard my son say that he wanted to transform ancestral house into a college. Wang Zhiming said, "I listen to my son, he says how to do it."
last March, the ancestral home renovation project was officially launched. Before the
transformation, there were three rooms in the ancestral home, with a total square number of about 70 square meters. Wang Zhiming said that due to idle years, the ancestral house was filled with debris, which was more messy. The three rooms were separated by two walls. In the process of transformation, the workers removed all the walls on the west side of the room and chiseled a moon - shaped gate in front of the east side.
the walls of the rooms retain the earthen walls of the ancestral houses, and the ceiling is also the ceiling before the ancestral home. In order to keep the room bright, the earth wall near the ceiling was transformed into a row of skylights, and sunlight shines in and sprinkles on the cement floor.
in the afternoon, a 90 year old woman gently pushed the door open and sat on the bench in front of the door, shining in the sunlight and shining on her weathered face.
passed through the moon gate and entered the "reading and reading hall". The east side of the room was a row of bookshelves full of books.
Wang Zhiming said, in May last year, the transformation of the ancestral house was basically completed. Last July 15th, the "Mr. school" was officially unveiled. There were only a few dozens of books on the bookshelf. In order to make the books on the bookshelf look a little more, he also placed the book on the front of the reader. After the formal opening of the Academy, more and more people came to the book, and more and more people came to the book. Now the books on the bookshelves have reached thousands. "Now we can put books and books." Wang Zhiming laughed.
let old friend re acquainted
Wang Zhiming is 66 years old. He was an accountant before he retired. He said he actually only had one month to retire, and if it hadn't been for this academy, he would still like to go on working.
after so many years, Wang Zhiming got into the habit of getting up at 5:30 every morning. "Now wake up every day and go to the academy to clean up, then open the doors of the Academy." Wang Zhiming's job now is to help his son manage this academy.
before and after the formal opening of academies, many people came to donate books. For example, the bicycle rack in the yard, that old bicycle is donated by others. Most of the books on the shelves, the Brazil tortoise in the pond, the rare pig feeding trough in the pond, and the phonograph in the room... It is mostly donated by others, even the gate of academies, and also donated by others.
the most busy day of the academy is on the weekend. The 90 year old lady, who came to the door, said that the school would be full of students at the end of the week. Some of the students were brought in groups by their teachers, and some of them were brought by their parents. Wang Zhiming said that a group of college students who read in Shouguang City often like to read a book on rented bicycles on weekends. "They usually come at noon and go back around 3:30 in the afternoon."
