With winter break arriving, Uchiha Hara's original plan had been to personally travel to the Land of Fire's Daimyo's Court and exchange the massive amount of cash in his hands, which was steadily depreciating, for gold.
However, he had not expected that not only would his relationship with Kurenai Yuhi progress so rapidly, but that he would also gain the approval of her father, Yuhi Shinku.
So Uchiha Hara directly changed his plans.
He intended to use these three weeks to systematically strengthen Kurenai Yuhi, both ideologically and in terms of power.
At the same time, he considered that he might form his own faction in the future, and nurturing talent aligned with his ideals would be essential.
Why not put together a standardized set of teaching materials infused with his own values while he was at it?
There were exactly three weeks of vacation. He planned to use that time to compile a set of basic compulsory education textbooks.
Uchiha Hara had also given the standards for these textbooks careful consideration.
For writing, Uchiha Hara discarded this era's cumbersome kana system and adopted Chinese characters across the board.
He would directly use existing characters with matching meanings, and create new ones where none existed. The Land of Fire's literacy rate was pitifully low anyway, and Hidden Leaf Village only had one Ninja Academy. Illiterates were everywhere. Whatever he taught would become the standard.
For mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering, he would directly use the Arabic numerals, mathematical symbols, and formulas from his previous life.
The reasoning was the same. Those who possessed such knowledge were already rare. As long as his textbooks spread widely enough and enough people studied them, the standards he established would naturally seize control of cultural discourse.
Of course, the textbooks would need appropriate localization,
