Section 91: Discounted Knowledge
After a few days of class, Jiang Tian felt that he was extremely tired, and he didn't have to work so hard with those old stubborns. Although some of these students have reached the age of establishment, their understanding of science is quite naïve, even if those teachers who come to study are the same, it may be that Zhang Tao did not have time to train them systematically in the past, so it has caused today's situation. Jiang Tian is also a bit of a mediocre person, don't look down on these guys who don't deserve their name, but in Europe that has just begun the Renaissance, these people can be regarded as well-educated. So after experiencing the first rest day, Jiang Tian decisively began to teach in different classes, and those who had no foundation at all were divided into a category and studied in the first half of the day. Teachers who come for further training will conduct surprise training according to their specialty, and use the remaining half day to set up improvement tutorial classes! The advantages of this are obvious, not to mention avoiding the duplication and waste of resources, and it can also let these people return to their educational posts as much as possible, the only exceptions are Song Yi, Wu Yuan and Zhang Huan, who even have a foundation and rely here for a whole day, except for Wu Yuan to accompany the prince, the other two you can't leave.
"Alas...... It's going to be chaotic for a while...... "During the lunch break, Jiang Tian took the newly delivered Di newspaper and sighed for a while.
Wu Yuan didn't know why he said this, it stands to reason that Jiang Tian already knew about the things published on it, and even many of them were designed by him, since he knew that there would be chaos in the world, why did he do such a thing?
The fake prince who is getting deeper and deeper in the city will not take the initiative to ask this question, but it does not mean that the real prince does not ask: "Why did Mr. say this?" ”
Jiang Tian put down the newspaper and looked at the weather, and then came back to his senses and said: "Now is the spring breeze, and the earth is recovering and spring flowers are blooming." But you know that in a few months it will be a hot summer with the sun shining, followed by a cold wind in late autumn. Therefore, before the winter, you must prepare coal and cotton clothes for the winter. The same is true of this governance, and now it looks like the revival of the government and the opposition is imminent, but it is through history...... That is, we can understand in the political lessons we have taken in the past two days that if we still follow the old path, we will definitely not survive the winter three hundred years later. Therefore, His Majesty wanted to prepare things to keep out the cold as much as possible, so as not to be absent, and future generations would be able to avoid such a tragedy as in the late Ming Dynasty if they were not good. ”
Hearing this explanation, Wu Yuan coughed straight, and said in front of the prince that the emperor's descendants were not good, what is the difference between this and slapping his face in person? Zhang Huan didn't care about these, as soon as he returned to the palace that day, he found his father to ask what was going on, and it turned out that this political lesson was really set up by his father, and when asked about the reason, he saw his father, who was usually very loving, looking up to the sky and sighing: "The world is not a family with one surname, if China no longer needs the emperor, then there is nothing!" ”
It can be said that this open-mindedness is rare among the proletarian fighters, how many ordinary people can not lose their hearts after gaining power and wealth? Don't look at the time-traveling protagonists in many novels of the 21st century, but even those whimsical authors mostly retain imperial power. This is not only due to the inertia of history, but also because they know the nature of human nature, and in the face of the greatest temptations in the world, every lofty ideal and ambition will be eclipsed, and people can find a bunch of high-sounding reasons to excuse themselves, just to preserve the interests they already have in their hands. In short, Zhang Huan may not be able to understand what the world is like without an emperor, which also makes him begin to pay attention to the course of Qizheng zhì, but the reason why he attaches importance to it is not to fulfill his father's wish, but to find the answer and find the ending that can make the omnipotent father sigh. And among the people around him, except for Jiang Tian, no one can give this answer.
After Zhang Huan pondered for a moment, he mustered up the courage to ask the doubts in his heart, but just as he was about to open his mouth, he was interrupted by Zhao Zhi who suddenly broke in: "Sir, if you finish lunch, I will remove the utensils." ”
In order to save trouble Wu Yuan, they simply had lunch here in Jiang Tian, also in line with the principle of ignoring indecent manners, in fact, they were afraid that Zhang Huan, who was young at a young age, would be affected by some kind of bad influence, so every day's lunch was brought by Zhao Zhi to the classroom and everyone ate together. Although you are the crown prince, because he has been taught to be diligent and thrifty since he was a child, there is no place to be unsuitable for the simple dishes on Jiang Tian's mansion, and in exchange, he will also teach Zhao Zhi to read and write at noon, it can be said that this little episode made the courage he mustered just now dissipate in an instant.
The afternoon class was to teach chemistry to those teachers, because he still had to prepare for the class, so Jiang Tian didn't get too entangled in the dazzling changes in the yamen in the newspaper. Anyway, everything is changing, and the simple and concise thing is just two words - decentralization! These are just two extremes compared to the various ministries and commissions that were elaborate in the early days of the establishment of the dynasty in another time and space. At that time, the state had just established its power, and it was still a system that had nothing to do with the old dynasty in terms of political system. So in order to make it easier to manage, but also because I don't know how to manage, I simply set up a bunch of departments with various functions. After a long evolution, it finally formed the unique style of the 21st century. At this moment, the Chinese Dynasty is the opposite of when it was, here is the first rebellion and then reform, not because of the revolution @ rebellion, so the bureaucracy followed the system of the Ming Dynasty at the beginning. Not only that, but at the same time, it is necessary to take into account the feelings of the vast number of old bureaucrats, and it is inevitable to produce a certain balancing strategy, so that the management power that is completely concentrated in the six ministries will be split up in order to achieve the role of mutual checks and balances and not subordinate to each other, and at the same time, new officials can be installed in new posts that have been prepared for a long time, so as to play a slow but real path of reform. This is the evolution strategy planned by Zhang Tao, he is not yet forty years old, and Jiang Tian, who is only twenty years old, as long as he can run like this for forty years, then he can gradually cleanse the interest class born under the old system, and it will not cause too many fluctuations. Even if they are smart enough to see this long-term plan, don't forget that the military power is still in the hands of the emperor and has not been returned to the military department, and then there will be another big purge.
Jiang Tian refused to show his face in this redistribution of power, in addition to avoiding trouble, the most important thing is to prepare for the future mountain, a young official who is only twenty years old, no matter how high his rank is, no one will be convinced. If twenty years later, his students are all over the country, and he has an unusual relationship with the royal family, who do you think will stop him from becoming a powerful minister at that time? Even if Zhang Tao dies one step first, he, the prime minister who looks like Zhang Juzheng, can continue the path of reform unwaveringly. In case Jiang Tian had bad intentions because of the expansion of power, in fact, the emperor still had another hand to prepare. Of course, this is Zhang Tao's plan, not the result Jiang Tian himself wants, because the end of this road is constitutional monarchy, and if he wants to improve the political consciousness of all the people in a few decades, Jiang Tian thinks that he does not have the ability.
Because of the lack of materials in his hands that could be used to make realizations, Jiang Tian was unable to replicate some of the most basic chemical realities, such as the combustion of iron or copper in oxygen. Although he also made some beakers, test tubes, and the like, in addition to heating boiling water or other simple substances, such as black copper oxide obtained by burning copper in the air, and then reducing copper oxide with charcoal. Or light a candle head in a measuring cup to prove the storage of oxygen, blow bubbles in clear lime water to prove carbon dioxide, etc., to prove how the chemical reaction, decomposition reaction, and displacement reaction are reflected in life. As for the metathesis reaction and other reactions, it is not said for the time being.
"There is a small iron box here, I put a few ordinary pieces of wood in it, and then we cover the mouth of the cup with gauze, and then coat the cloth with wet mud to seal, and now put it on the charcoal fire to roast it......" Jiang Tian explained while operating, and the people below who thought that there was little difference between chemistry and alchemy widened their eyes one by one, and some common phenomena in life in front of them could be explained as chemical principles, and now everyone was staring at this truth, wondering what unbelievable conclusions would be drawn. After a while, Jiang Tian used an awl to pierce a hole in the dry mud seal, and then immediately put a burning wooden stick on the hole, and then everyone saw the flames spewed from the mud seal!
"As I just said, the carbon in the wood is combined with limited oxygen molecules to form carbon monoxide under insufficient combustion, and this gas can not only burn, but also kill people after excessive inhalation, so you remember, whether it is coal or charcoal burning in winter, you must ensure that there is sufficient air circulation, otherwise it will cause poisoning death!" Another impressive experiment, not only for those who aspire to engage in science, but also for some of the two knives who do not understand the principles at all, are also convinced, and even begin to become interested in science, such as the current pervert, if other courses can make him drowsy, then when looking at these vivid teaching practices, even Linglong standing by his side cannot be distracted.
Of course Linglong is not here, but Xinyue is! In fact, since Jiang Tian came back to class, this girl has changed into the dress of the previous son-in-law, and she mixes in the corner of the classroom every day to learn together, some people know her identity, and some people don't, but it doesn't matter, since she saw Wu Yuandu politely and politely courteous to her, no one dared to play any crooked ideas. In addition to the jealousy of the false prince, after a period of time, these people were very depressed to find that the best learning in this classroom might be Song Yi, because he could often guard Jiang Tian to ask questions, and he could be regarded as a personal disciple. And second only to Song Yi is not Zhang Huan, who is curious about everything, or a senior new teacher who has been teaching for many years, but it is this Xibei who overwhelms the crowd and makes you sigh. So later, even if her identity was already an open secret, no one dared to be disrespectful, Zhang Huan was afraid that he would always ask questions and annoy people (in fact, Jiang Tian was already annoying him), so later he would ask Xinyue or Song Yi if he didn't understand anything, and Xinyue's explanation was the most detailed and easy to understand. Later, Xinyue simply moved out of the corner and sat next to Zhang Huan, and the few gentlemen surrounded the perimeter to protect her.
The chemistry class in the afternoon was finally over, and in order to prevent some inappropriate things from appearing, Jiang Tian insisted that the chemistry class could only be listened to and recorded, and no questions were allowed! You just need to memorize the long-winded equations and principles, and as for what you don't understand, you have to slowly understand it in practice. Zhang Huan didn't agree with this statement at first, he was famous for breaking the casserole and asking to the end. But Jiang Tian just didn't say it, and told him that this is already a simplified thing that can't be simplified, and a lot of theoretical knowledge belongs to the category of speculation, unless there are more raw materials to prove the test, so you should just copy the golden rule. Jiang Tian would say this and was also helpless, he could not explain the theory of molecules, atoms, etc., because the observation conditions did not allow it. He also asked the Academy of Sciences to start trial microscopes, but in addition to the lens error, the magnification of that thing was not even as good as the simple student microscopes of later generations, at most it could see some microorganisms and plant cells. But this belongs to the category of biology class, so Jiang Tian far-fetched to apply the results obtained from biological observations to prove that matter is indeed composed of many tiny structures, and the raw materials of this structure are atoms. What Jiang Tian didn't know was that later the international community really accepted this nonsense explanation, who made him Jiang Tian.
The students collectively stood up and saluted him before class, Jiang Tian still bowed slightly and returned the salute, the difference is that these students are now completely convinced, even those students who squeezed in for their future careers, there are really a few who have a strong interest in science, and they fight for a qiē time to desperately tutor the missing basic knowledge, and the teahouse opposite the classroom is their study room. Although it is very gratifying, but after all, this is also a very small number, but through the word of mouth of the second generation of the right to guò, Jiang Tian's magic has also begun to spread in this circle. For example, Liu Baokai, who is not suitable for scientific research, will only brag about what kind of reality he has seen to his friends who have not come to the private school, and he also has a nose and eyes for the principle depiction, which makes him earn a lot of attention and satisfy part of his vanity. He didn't think about the consequences of doing so, so much so that when he came to class one day and found that the auditors were crowded at the gate, he realized that he might have played a role in fueling the trouble.
"Confucius said that there is no class in teaching, they come and go freely, but in order to obtain textbooks and official student qualifications, in addition to paying tuition, they must also be able to pass the entrance exam." Jiang Tian did not stop these people in line with the principle of expanding the audience, and even when doing some chemical practice, as long as it is not too dangerous, he may invite a few to try it himself, and because of this, in physics, chemistry, biology and other courses, the proportion of audit students is getting larger and larger, but the key to learning these knowledge is mathematics, these people have no enthusiasm, and it is no wonder that mathematics is recognized as the most boring subject in the world.
As for the physical education class, there were a lot of jokes, Jiang Tian knew that it was impossible for these people to run a few laps in the alley in sports shorts and vests one by one, and it was impossible to make a set of moves on uneven bars or parallel bars, so he used the common folk stone locks to make dumbbells, stipulating that each adult man should at least lift the five-pound stone lock above his head 20 times in a row, and at the same time achieve 30 sit-ups and 20 push-ups, which is considered a passing grade in physical education class. If you want to challenge the standard of excellence, in addition to doubling the above items, you also need to hold your breath in the water for 30 seconds and squat for 50 consecutive times. At first, except for the pervert, almost all the students complained about it, and some even said that it was insulting. But Jiang Tian only used one sentence to let these people obediently exercise, and this sentence is also a panacea for all trials: His Majesty the Emperor requires the students here to be trained according to the standards of a gentleman! In fact, how did they know that this was Jiang Tian discounting the standards set by the emperor, and if it was the original assessment index, it would make these people lose their confidence in graduation all of a sudden.
What is a gentleman? In addition to the abstract moral standards, other items refer to the six arts of the gentleman. These people are at least proficient in poetry, books and rituals, or some are versatile and traditional. But the most critical driving and archery are absolutely unqualified, and then Jiang Tian announced that physical education is an organic combination of these two subjects, and if you don't like it, you can also learn to ride a horse and archery, which can also be regarded as a passing grade in physical education. As a result, many people could only die of the heart of resistance, but obediently practiced according to the requirements. And the only one among the students who looks at others with red faces, but his face does not change color and his heart does not beat to complete all the projects, is only him Liu Baokai.
"What is this, I think my old man practiced much harder than this back then!" When it was time for physical education class, it was the time for this kid to regain his self-confidence, and no matter whether the audience liked the topic or wanted to avoid it impatiently, he could talk endlessly for a long time: "My father said that talent cannot be forced, but the physique is created by himself, if you don't have a good physique, even if you have the talent of the world, what can you do?" If Zhuge Liang is in good health, what else will happen to Sima Yi? ”
His analogy is also appropriate, although even if Zhuge Liang is healthy, he may not be able to succeed in the Northern Expedition, but in the era when "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is generally popular, this explanation is still so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Besides, the gentlemen of the Qin and Han dynasties were not easy to mess with, and when they were hanging on the sword, they drew their swords to help...... This seems to be a martial arts novel? But it is undeniable that martial arts was indeed born from the chivalrous biography of the Han Dynasty, since every Chinese literati has a martial arts dream in their hearts, then Jiang Tian also announced that although it will not work to help each other, but if the road is not strong, it will not damage the reputation of the gentleman! Or is this statement more valid, no matter who has to take physical education seriously.
Seeing that the teaching work was on the right track, Jiang Tian had not forgotten some of his responsibilities, so when Song Yi brought a few brass things one day, Jiang Tian knew that he was going to be busy again.
