The Story of Suhuang's Grinding Blood

About This Novel
One hundred years ago, our country began to build new modern schools to replace the old imperial examination system. This was a far-reaching change. This work takes the famous Hunan educationists Hu Yuandan and Chen Runlin as the main line to establish Mingde School and Chuyi School, trying to reproduce the thrilling history of educational reform. Comrade Mao Zedong once spoke highly of the Mingde School founded by Hu Yuantan as "although current affairs have fallen, Mingde is flourishing" and the Health Society founded by Chen Runlin as "the dawn of the East, the sound of footsteps in the empty valley". Dewey, the American education expert, also gave Mingde and Chuyi high praise. What is rare is that Hu Yuantan and Chen Runlin gave up all opportunities to become officials. Hu Yuantan called himself a "blood-grinding old man", while Chen Runlin encouraged himself as a "gardener" and devoted his life to the cause of education reform.
