Zhao Hanzhang went through the trustworthy people she currently had and found none suitable.
The main issue was that all the people she could use were already employed, and she had no one available.
So ultimately, there's still a shortage of people.
"I've memorized the Thousand Character Classic and the Three Character Classic," Zhao Hanzhang said, "What about your math teachings..."
Fu Tinghan replied, "The first volume is almost complete. As you suggested, I wrote it to cover the basics, so let's have them start by learning Arabic numerals."
Zhao Hanzhang felt a headache, "How should we explain Arabic numerals to them?"
"Why explain?" Fu Tinghan declared confidently, "Just teach them directly. This is just a substitution of terms. This is how 'one' is written. Is an explanation really necessary?"
Zhao Hanzhang was taken aback, then realized and cupped her fist in admiration, "Professor Fu, you are amazing, I am truly impressed."
