Jade is not cut, not a tool; People don't learn or know. He is a citizen of the ancient king, and teaching is the first. "Saving Life" said: "Reading begins with learning." That's what it means!
Jade can't be turned into a good object without carving; People can't understand without learning. Therefore, in order to establish the country and govern the people, ancient kings must first establish schools and teach. In the chapter "Shangshu Duiming Names", it is said that "we should always give priority to learning and teaching", which is the truth! )

The allusion of "jade rough grinding"
Once upon a time, there was a man named Bian He in the State of Chu. One day, he found a piece of unpolished jade in the mountains and gave it to Li, the king of Chu at that time. Unexpectedly, the jade craftsman in the palace said it was just an ordinary stone. King Lee was angry. He ordered his men to convict Bian He.
After Li's death, he succeeded to the throne. Bian He gave this jade to him, but he was still condemned. Bian He held the stone in despair and cried at the foot of the mountain for three days and three nights.
King Wen knew this after he acceded to the throne, so he invited Bian He to the palace, ordered the jade craftsman to build this stone, and when he found that it was really a fine piece of jade, he named it "Choi of Harmony". Therefore, a good jade needs to be polished to show its value, so human beings also need a good education to become useful people. ?
