Chapter 43: Construction of Donglai

At the end of October, the whole of Donglai was in my hands. The use of Momen for me was the biggest gain of this trip, and Gong Yiyan also became my first woman in the late Han Dynasty!

Life is full of sunshine, and love and career have achieved a small harvest. However, isn't this the luck of Gong Yan and Momen?

Five or six miles away in the northern suburbs of Huang County, there is a mountain ridge with an altitude of only one or two hundred meters, the slope is gentle, the scenery is beautiful and unique, and the shape is like a huge turtle.

On the back of the "turtle shell", a ridge of more than ten zhang high is wound around most of the circle, if the turtle carries the python, this ridge is called the turtle snake ridge. It used to be a famous place to visit. However, a few years ago, the eunuch Duan Jue saw that the feng shui here was excellent, so he took this mountain circle as his own and built a large-scale mountain villa on the mountain, named Xuanwu Mountain Villa.

To put it bluntly, it is the Turtle and Snake Villa, which means longevity and auspiciousness. The locals dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, so they had to secretly scold Duan Jue for being a turtle king bastard and a scourge for a thousand years.

A few months ago, the Yellow Turban Qu Shuai Gu besieged Huang County and occupied the manor. Fortunately, Zhenggu is not stupid, black and coarse, and also has the bad problem of vassal elegance, so the Xuanwu Villa is still intact.

If it were other rebels, it might have been ruined a long time ago.

Now the Xuanwu Villa has changed hands again, and it is under my control.

When I first entered the village, even I, a modern person who has been in the metropolis for a long time, was speechless, and this eunuch surnamed Duan was really wealthy. The villa is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and is surrounded by lush forests.

The entourage pushed open the heavy copper-clad gate, and a small river across the villa appeared in front of them, which meandered eastward, dividing the Xuanwu Villa into two areas, north and south. In the meantime, several unique small bridges stand across the river, connecting the north and south. These small bridges are either wooden bridges, or white marble round arch bridges, and even have a small suspended suspension bridge made of iron chain rope ladders; Each bridge is never the same, but each bridge is unique and beautiful.

There are not many man-made buildings in the south, dominated by natural beauty, and pavilions and pavilions are built at key points, which can not only be used for people to rest, but also play the finishing touch!

A promenade winds along the river from east to west, connecting with several small bridges, and then comes to an abrupt halt when it is connected to the white marble arch bridge in the middle. After our group crossed the river along the white marble arch bridge, the promenade appeared in the northern area again. Also along the river to the west more than 20 meters and then turn north, and finally communicate with more than 10 magnificent palaces, the layout of the corridor is indeed cleverly conceived, like a natural formation.

I wandered with Gongyiyan, Guo Jia and others, lingering, and reveling in this pleasant beauty! Most of the histories of later generations portray eunuchs as useless, but this great eunuch surnamed Duan has nothing to say, but his vision is helpless, and he has made this mountain villa magnificent but has not fallen into the slightest clichΓ©.

I heard that these palaces are similar to the current emperor's palace, full of gold and splendor, blinding everyone's eyes! Since the eunuch surnamed Duan can't have a lot of money, then, if he has the opportunity in the future, he must go to his house to copy it, and he will never stop if he doesn't empty his coffin book.

Guo Jia clapped his hands again and again, and said: "If you have free time, reading and enjoying the scenery here is not really a great joy in life!" ”

"Bong-hyo, you kid is daydreaming again. Don't you also want to learn from the one surnamed Duan, so that people can scold you for being a bastard of the turtle king? "Cracking down on Guo Jia has become a topic of conversation after dinner.

Guo Jia saw that the momentum was not right, so he immediately stopped his mouth and behaved like a little sheep.

I laughed and asked the beautiful woman next to me, "Xiao Yan, what do you think of the scenery here?" ”

Gong Yiyan no longer made fun of Guo Jia, she looked at me, her face rippled with a seductive smile, pointed at Guo Jia and replied, "The scenery is beautiful." You see, this kid is getting drunk! ”

"Okay, since you all think this place has a great view, this is the site of the 'Ink Academy'." I have already communicated with the public, and I plan to build a comprehensive college based on the talents engaged in technical research in Momen, and then absorb the "aliens" who love invention and creation from all over the world, with the purpose of researching and popularizing science and technology. In the future, it will be my core competitiveness.

It just so happens that this Xuanwu Mountain Villa covers a wide area, the palace is magnificent and particularly spacious and bright, and there are more than ten of them, and the scenery is too good to say. That's it, here is selected to be the college, just hang the name plaque of the college, save labor and trouble and save a lot of expenses.

I laughed.

With Momen's assistance, I can also try to wave my golden finger... Aircraft cannons dare not think about it, but some technologies in the Ming and Song dynasties are fine.

It's just that the wheel of history gives me limited time, and if I can't build up absolute strength in a few years, let alone reverse the human tragedy of the chaos of China, and even deal with the future heroes, I will have no chance of winning.

In the past, if I compared it with those influential figures in the late Han Dynasty, I felt that I was a dwarf. Now, I am full of self-confidence, as long as I vigorously develop science and technology in the past few years, form a system to promote and apply it, and arm my army with an endless stream of new equipment; In addition, we will strive to develop the economy, so that the people in the area under our jurisdiction can live a prosperous life and the people will return to their hearts, so that our forces will get a qualitative leap. At that time, even if you want to fight against Yuan Shao and Cao Mengde, so what?

Time waits for no one, just do what you say. I immediately pulled the two of them to say what I thought.

Guo Jia is a genuine scholar, and to give a reader a good knowledge of environmental research, of course he must raise his hands and feet in favor.

The name of the college "Mo Academy" is to please Yu Gong Yan and the Momen Group she leads, if you want the horse to run fast, how can you not give it grass?

Gong Yiyan resolutely rejected the name, she thought that the current Confucian power was too huge, and the Momen Academy would directly fight with them, which would put me and Momen under pressure.

I knew she was thinking about me, lest I become the target of public criticism, and my heart warmed.

The beauty is kind, how can I refuse, I half-pushed and half-accepted her suggestion.

……

Huang Banxian wakes up with a smile in his dreams these days, and he is currently serving as a small leader in my intelligence bureau. According to his recollection, it seems that the eighteenth generation of his ancestors has never served in the government, and with his current status, he is indeed disgraced by others, perhaps because he accumulated yin virtue in his previous life, and actually hugged the thick legs of the Tiger Army. Now, with confidence, his divine temperament is even more brilliant, and the obscenity that was revealed in his bones in the past has inadvertently faded. Today's Huang Banxian is always dressed in a snow-white robe, and if he is accompanied by a whisk in his hand, he looks like a group of immortals.

For the tasks I assigned, Huang Banxian never discounted, and I was quite satisfied with the work he did.

A few days ago, I asked him to find more people who understand Feng Shui.

Huang Banxian gave me a small surprise, he searched around in the chaotic Central Plains, and found more than 100 monks who were proficient in feng shui in more than a month, which solved my urgent need.

With a stroke of the pen, I ask for people to give money, and I want money to give money! and let all parties cooperate vigorously, and let the green light be released all the way.

Finally, five days later, Qingzhou Institute of Technology was officially established.

To put it bluntly, the School of Engineering is engaged in technical research. As a crossing party, even if you can't make a steam engine, a foreign gun or a cannon; But if you don't make a few advanced technologies that are ahead of this era, you're embarrassed to go out.

What's more, there is also the famous Momen to help, if you can't get a name for yourself, you can really only find a piece of tofu to die.

Originally, it was planned to appoint Gong Yiyan as the first dean of the academy, and she deserved to be appointed as the first dean, and no one would object. After all, she is the son of Momen, and she is also the descendant of a generation of grandmasters.

But she resolutely refused, she leaned close to my ear and asked softly, "Do you really want me to keep showing my head?" ”

I nodded and replied affectionately, "You are not an ordinary woman, and I really can't do it if I put you in a cage like a canary." ”

I was obviously deeply touched by my respect and understanding of her, her eyes flashed with a sparkle, and she suddenly said to me: "I can accept the management of the college, but the dean must be held by you personally, think about it, in the future, I don't know how many students will come from your disciples every year, and they will be a help you can trust." ”

Well, there is no shortage of wisdom and beauty, I'm so fucking happy.

In the future, if Principal Jiang knew about her proposition, he would definitely be surprised, it turned out that he was gnawing on the cold steamed buns left by others more than a thousand years ago.

The model of the Faculty of Engineering is basically modeled after that of later Polytechnic University. The faculty was divided into the Faculty of Mathematics, the Faculty of Physics, the Faculty of Chemistry, the Faculty of Geography, the Faculty of Medicine, and even the integration of a new institute of artefacts. In short, because of the simplicity of the situation, the conditions are not yet mature, the syllabus and teaching materials have not been decided, and the teachers are lacking, so everything has to be crossed by feeling the stones.

The head of the Department of Physics is Ma Jun, a genius from Momen. Ma Jun, whose name is Deheng, was born poor. When he traveled to Guanzhong, he saw that this son had a flexible mind and an extraordinary talent for mechanical equipment, so he accepted him as an apprentice. If he had followed the course of history, he would have become one of the most famous ancient inventors. He was tall and thin and not good at words. But when I talked to him about inventions and innovations, he immediately opened up and I discussed it all afternoon.

The Department of Chemistry is presided over by Pu Yuan, who is as famous as Ma Jun. Pu Yuan, the word Ningguang. He is of medium stature and has a stocky appearance. He had a little knowledge of chemistry in Momen, but he was not proficient in it. It is not necessary to let Momen Pu Yuan take on this heavy responsibility, after all, he is best at making weapons.

Of course, I still did some preliminary preparations, and the Huang Banxian under my command received my order, and he has been very busy for several months. Through his former fox friends and dog friends, he invited slightly famous scholars from Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou, habitual tomb robbers, and Fang Shi Yi Gu Brain who could refine pills.

These people can come in handy right away. Among them, I selected a few alchemists to assist Pu Yuan.

Because of the difficulty in finding talents, it seems that the heads of the mathematics department and the geography department have to be held by me, the honorary president, for a few days.

Fortunately, I had been working day and night to write a simple math textbook. First of all, of course, Arabic numerals were proposed for the use of Qimeng, and then, gradually moving from shallow to deep algebra, geometry, functions, and calculus, but it did not go beyond the scope of high school in later generations. I selected a few logistics tents from the army to be teaching assistants, and in the past, I used to teach them some math knowledge in my spare time, and now let them teach them as they learn.

As for the head of the geography department, the first thing I think of is Tian Chou, who is a good reader, a good person in Beiping, a good at fencing, and a deep understanding of geography. If he takes control of the geography department, I will be relieved. Tian Chou is a very capable person, and among the celebrities of the late Han Dynasty, I am very impressed by him. Half a month ago, I sent someone to look for him with a world map I had drawn by hand, and invited him to come to Donglai to meet.

It is the Department of Medicine, but it is the gathering of two great medical masters in the late Han Dynasty. Zhang Yan is a disciple of Hua Tuo, and he has become a die-hard fan of mine since I used thaumaturgy to rescue Tai Shi Ci. In his letter to Hua Tuo, he pleaded with me to the heavenly and earthly medical masters, who have never existed in ancient times, and implored Hua Tuo to come to Donglai to communicate with me. Hua Tuo knew that this apprentice of his was a sincere person and would not bully his teacher. With such a medical wizard, how can you not go to see it! Coincidentally, Nanyang Zhang Ji came to visit. He told Zhang Ji about this, and Zhang Ji was also quite tempted, and the two came here together.

Under my high-sounding flicker, the two of them were so confused by me that they couldn't find the north. It is nothing more than what makes medicine elegant, makes medicine systematic and scientific, trains more doctors, and benefits everyone in the world; Leave a name in history and so on. Eventually, both decided to stay.

Because of the two great masters, I divided the Department of Medicine into two: Internal Medicine and Surgery. The director of the Department of Internal Medicine is Zhang Ji, and the director of surgery is Hua Tuo. In the future, if the Department of Medicine grows, I will separate it and establish a separate medical school. In the future, doctors will be as famous as Mohists, Confucianists, Legalists, and soldiers.

The New Artifact Research Institute is led by Gong Yanyan, which gathers most of the developers of Momen and is the core of the School of Engineering. After the establishment of the institute, personnel from various departments will also be dispatched from time to time to come to assist in the residence.

In order to attract students, I have developed a series of preferential conditions. For example, room and board are included, and those with excellent grades have scholarships; After graduating from the college, the government arranged employment. After a few sacrifices, the poor students from the nearby Qing, Yan, Henan, and Xu prefectures finally recruited more than five hundred. There are still too few students, maybe the thieves and bandits in the troubled times caused the students to dare not travel far. This problem must be solved.

After several busy times, the School of Engineering gradually got on the right track.

My heart is finally a lot more steady. I'm an outsider, what can I do to compete with the snake of the land in this era? Of course, it is the advanced concept and technology, and the School of Engineering is the foundation of my life, and I can't do it without paying attention to it.

……

Not on the west coast, a shipyard is already up and running, which I personally name: Qingdao Shipyard. Momen has lived overseas for a long time, and has to engage in maritime trade and fishing to make a living, and shipbuilding skills are not bad. I transferred talents who were good at shipbuilding, and recruited shipbuilders from Jiangnan with high salaries to form the backbone of Qingdao Shipyard.

Today, the first offshore warships are about to be launched. There are ten ships in total, with a displacement of less than fifty tons. Equipped with bed crossbows and trebuchets, the crew was full of fifty people, including thirty-five sailors. A whole ten warships have been moored next to the berth, and the masts in the middle of the hull are raised high, lined up, which looks quite spectacular.

There were still a few miles to go from the coastal shipyard, so I slowed down my horse and took out my clairvoyance to look at my first warships from a distance, although they were still few in number, and their tonnage was still too small to fight in the near sea, but after all, it was a good start, and the journey of thousands of miles was also taken step by step.

Da The one in front was Tai Shici, and the two riders behind were Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin. I handed over the Navy to three people. Tai Shici is the main general, and Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin are the deputy generals.

"The officers and men of the Navy have lined up and are waiting, please review the Lord." The three of them jumped off their horses and raised their hands to me in a military salute. Tai Shi Ci reported to me loudly.

I returned a military salute and nodded to a few people.

In the open space in front of the dock, five hundred naval officers and men lined up in a neat phalanx, dressed in blue naval uniforms, walking towards me in a neat and uniform manner, their young faces full of vitality.

"Stand upright!" Zhou Tai yelled loudly.

Hundreds of people immediately stopped, and the sound of their heels sounded on the ground, and then they roared in unison: "Protect me Huaxia, protect my Haijiang!" ”

The high-pitched sound resounded all around, muffling the roaring waves.

I sat on my horse and toured the fledgling navy back and forth, and I was pleased with their mental outlook. It can be seen that Tai Shici and the three of them have put a lot of effort into the training of their subordinates.

I waved my hand downward, and the roar of the tide immediately fell silent. I exclaimed, "Today will go down in history!" Because our Navy was formed. I congratulate you on being part of the Glorious Navy. Although we now have only a few hundred men and only ten ships, one day, our strength will make the four sides tremble; As long as the waters through which the warships pass, it is our territory, because you are the invincible Tigers navy! ”

"Tiger Navy, I am invincible, kill, kill, kill..."

Seeing that the time was almost up, I stretched out my hand and pointed to the ship docked on the seashore and ordered loudly: "All the officers and men immediately kick the ship, Yang Fan set sail!" ”
