He Wuji, the textbook of the entire primary school, has seen it, and he was also invited to attend the opening ceremony when the Jinling branch of the Royal Academy opened. As far as he knew, primary school was divided into four years, and in addition to traditional children's books like the Three Character Classic and Thousand Character Text, a mathematics textbook was added every year. In this way, there are almost a dozen books to learn in the four years of primary school, and for many children, the learning task is not easy.

And He Xingmo has a good memory, everyone present knows that if he wants to say that he has memorized those articles, He Wujian does not doubt it, but if he wants to say that he has learned all eight primary school mathematics in four years, it is doubtful.

However, He Wuji did not deny him, but grabbed his ear and said: "Stinky boy, Hugh has to quibble!" Even if you learn everything, skipping class is not right! If you have time, you can read other books, don't you have a library in your school! I think there are a lot of books in there! ”

If the theory failed, He Xingmo replaced it with coquettishness: "Father-in-law, people want to learn shipbuilding!" ”

"Children, read the book first, and we'll talk about it later! You stay aside, we still have business to do, and we'll clean you up when we go home at night! ”

He Xingmo grimaced at him and hid in the crowd again.

He Wujian sorted out his mood for a while, and then said to everyone: "This time the task is heavy and the time is tight, everyone goes down to seize the time to conceive, use their brains more, and each come up with a drawing." I'll give you ten days, and then you will discuss together, learn from each other's strengths, and try to come up with the best drawings to dedicate to the Holy One! Let's disperse today! ”

When everyone dispersed, He Xingmo also ran out happily in the crowd, He Wuji didn't find him, but he didn't arrest him this time.

He Wuji is committed to carrying forward the Mohist culture, and has never married a wife and had children, although He Xingmo is not his biological son, but in his heart he is his biological child.

Every parent wants their child to be happy and achieve extraordinary things, and this is a paradox most of the time.

He looked at He Xingmo's bouncing back and took a deep breath.

……

The Jinling Branch of the Royal Academy is located not far from the Ship Research Institute, with more than 100 teachers and nearly 1,000 students.

In addition to Tang Xun, who was the acting dean of the last imperial examination, there were more than a dozen mathematics teachers selected by the Royal Academy, and the rest were all gentlemen left over from the local academies in Jinling. Most of those students are also students from the original academies, and only less than one floor is the children of local families in Jinling, and those farther away do not have the conditions to go to school. Therefore, on the whole, the huge one-way school still seems to be a bit depressed.

Tang Xun, Zi Yanyou, Qiantang people. He passed the imperial examination this time, and was sent by the Holy Lord to serve as the interim dean of the Jinling Branch of the Royal Academy, which can really be said to be a return to his hometown. Having him, a local student, take the lead in forming the Royal Academy Branch, it is indeed twice the result with half the effort, after all, those fellow students and gentlemen have some friendship with him.

And he is patrolling his own territory at the moment, watching the popularity of this place increase day by day, and he also has a sense of pride in his heart. Of course, he fantasized more about his achievements being able to alarm the saint and transfer him back to the capital as soon as possible, he didn't want to be a teacher for the rest of his life.

At this moment, he saw He Wuji hurriedly walking into the campus gate and walking towards the office building. He didn't dare to trust this He Wuji, he had heard of his name long before his scientific expedition, not to mention his local prestige in Jinling, but to say that he had an unusual relationship with the queen's family, and he didn't dare to put on a score in front of him.

So he hurriedly ran over and intercepted He Wuji: "Uncle He, what kind of wind is blowing you!" Hurry up, come to my house for tea! ”

He Wujian clenched his fists very politely and said, "Dean, disturb me!" ”

Tang Xun smiled and said: "Uncle, what are you polite to me, it's too angry!" Just call me a word! ”

"Huh! You're welcome to be old! He Wuji also smiled heartily: "Yanyou, there is something I want to ask you about this old man!" ”

Tang Xun: "Uncle, what are you talking about!" Let's talk! ”

"Then the old decay is better than obeying his fate! Haha......"

Tang Xun led He Wuji to his office, made him his best cup of tea, and then asked, "Uncle, what's the matter with you?" Despite the commands! ”

He Wuji took a sip of tea: "The old man just wanted to ask about my baby, that is, He Xingmo's boy's learning situation, and today I caught him skipping class, but he ran away with his mouth, without a word of reliability, and said that he had finished all the books in elementary school, isn't this nonsense......"

"He Xingmo is your child?" Tang Xun was shocked: "I'm also about to find his file and visit his family another day!" ”

He Wuji: "Is he really naughty at school?" Don't worry, I'll clean him up when I go back! ”

Tang Xun hurriedly grabbed He Wuji, who said that the wind was the rain, and pressed him back to the chair: "Uncle, don't worry!" Although Xingmo is a little naughty, he is indeed very smart. He didn't lie to you, according to his teacher, he did finish the entire elementary school textbook. It is for this reason that I want to talk to you, this kid is a genius, he completed the four-year course in one year, such a good seedling, it can't be wasted! I have applied to the Royal Academy for early transfer of junior high school textbooks and teachers, and I have reported to the Holy Lord. I'm not afraid of your jokes, if the saint falls in love with him, I'm really a little reluctant! Hey! ”

"I see!" He Wujian touched his beard and looked proud: "That's really Lao Yanyou's trouble!" ”

Tang Xun: "Uncle, look at what you said, teaching and educating people is our duty as a teacher!" ”

He Wujian got up and arched his hand and said: "In this way, the old decay will not bother, there are still a lot of things in the family, let's leave first!" ”

Tang Xun: "It's okay! Uncle go slowly! I'll send you! ”

He Wuji: "Yan You stays!" Come home another day! ”

Tang Xun: "Definitely!" ”

……

There was no big problem with the child's education, and He Wujian was relieved, so he concentrated on preparing for the holy reward.

Ten days passed quickly, and the children of the Mo family also came to He Wuji with their respective works.

He Wujian looked at each drawing carefully, and it took him half a day to finally read the dozens of drawings, but his brows were getting deeper and deeper.

"I said, you guys, have you been lazy all these years of eating and drinking? See what you've gotten on? Can you get your hands out? He Wujian angrily threw the drawings on the ground and loudly reprimanded the Mo family.

And these Mo masters all shrugged their heads, and they were silent one by one.

Only He Xingmo was not afraid of his father-in-law's anger, and he was very interested in rummaging the drawings on the ground, and laughed sarcastically from time to time.

He Wuji's anger was still gone, he picked up a few drawings casually, and continued to reprimand: "Look at this one, have you ever thought that your ship can be built?" It's just a matter of expanding the ship several times, is there such a perfunctory thing of yours? And this one, the saint wants a ferry, what are you doing? Bamboo rafts? It's embarrassing to take it out and be embarrassed......"

He Wujian scolded for a while, and he was tired of scolding, and looked at the disciples and grandchildren angrily.

At this time, a young disciple grandson, instigated by everyone, walked up to him tremblingly, and said cautiously: "Master, doesn't the Holy One just want a big ship!" Let's get him a big ship, just like the Heavenly Sage warship built by the Holy Lord, let's also use that steel to make the keel support, so that we can build a big ship? ”

He Wuji glared at him angrily: "You also said that the Heavenly Sage warship was built by the Holy Lord, do you think that if we come to build it, it will be bigger than the Heavenly Sage?" Besides, the Heavenly Sage is not suitable for the use of the Yellow River at all, otherwise why would the Holy Lord spend so much money to offer a reward! It's just a brainstorm to speak, they can say whatever you want, can you be a little assertive? ”

This apprentice returned to the crowd with a backpack on his back, and the scene fell silent again, and He Wujian himself was thinking about how to solve this problem, and he didn't bother to deal with them.

Finally, He Xingmo's children, who had been scratching in the pile of drawings for a while, broke the silent scene.

"Father-in-law, the child has an idea!"

"Oh?" He Wujian came back to his senses and saw his son, and his mood improved a lot: "What do you think, come and listen!" ”

He Xingmo was not polite, picked up the chalk and drew on the blackboard next to him.

"Father, brothers, look! I used the middle part of these two lines to represent the Yellow River, and the wharf was located on the other side of the river, according to the meaning of the Holy Lord, the ferry we designed must be large enough and easy to drive, so as to improve the transportation efficiency.

I haven't seen the Yellow River any like, but judging from the description in the book, the Yellow River is a little more turbulent than the Yangtze River next to us. We all know that the bigger the boat, the greater the impact of the current in the water, and the more strenuous the rowing. Therefore, we must not only think of designing a large ship, but also find ways to reduce the impact of the current ship.

My idea is this, since there is a limit to the size of a ship we can build alone, why not imitate what Cao Cao did in Chibi in the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? Since one ship is not big enough, let's get two, and if two can't work, we can get three......

In short, it is to connect the decks of these ships into a whole and combine them into one large ship. We can also modify the shape of the bottom of the boat and adjust the position of each boat to reduce the impact of water flow on the hull. ”

He Wuji listened to his son's attention, and couldn't help but feel a little moved, I have to say that this is a novel idea, he nodded at He Xingmo, and then said to everyone: "Look at it, a child is more willing to use his brains than you!" Let's not talk about whether his idea is okay, at least I think his idea is very novel, it is a good idea, we can give it a try. I have decided that you will be divided into two parts, one group will continue to design according to your own ideas, and the second group will experiment according to Xingmo's ideas.

In addition, I would like to remind you that when the queen is still there, she often reminds us to pay attention to details, and details determine success or failure! There must be a lot of people participating in the bounty this time, and there are also many people who can build ships, not to mention that we don't know if the Royal Academy created by the Holy Lord will participate. It can be seen that our advantages are not much obvious to others. In order to be able to get this reward, we can only grasp all the details and make breakthroughs in the details.

Therefore, you must always remember that what we need is a ferry, not a shipbuilding for the sake of shipbuilding, and we must grasp the bottom line of practicality! Do you understand? ”

"Understood, Master!"

"Understood, Master!"

……

A month later, both ship research teams came up with their own elaborate drawings and ship models, and had a simple competition in the test area of the institute.

He Wujian took two drawings and looked at the two ship models, and this time his mood was obviously much better.

"Look at you! If you don't get scolded, you don't know how to use your brain, and the effect of being scolded is immediate! I took a look at the results of the two groups of you, as well as your respective design drawings, and overall they are still good. Although the design of one group is inferior in terms of transportation volume and resistance to current impact, you have a lot of bright spots in the design of the facilities on the boat.

Therefore, I intend to combine the strengths of your two groups and do my best to hand in a perfect drawing for the Holy Lord! ”

Since Zhao Zhen issued the notice, he has received a lot of drawings, including some so-called ancestral skills, but they are far from his consideration.

Seeing that the three-month deadline was approaching, when Zhao Zhen was about to take out his drawings again, he finally let him see a satisfactory drawing.

The design style of the polyhull also appeared for the first time in the history of the construction of the Great Song Empire, and at the same time, the holy place of the shipbuilding industry of the Great Song Empire - Jinling Shipbuilding Research Institute. (To be continued.) )
