Li Shimin asked those technicians of the ordnance supervision to hurry up the production of artillery, and strive to popularize the use rate of cannons throughout the army, and then increase their combat effectiveness several times out of thin air. And the technicians immediately felt distressed because they had very few technicians. Because they have a limited number of technicians in the Ordnance Supervisor, and there are relatively few technicians who can produce cannons, after all, there are very few people who just make cannon models and polish cannon breeches, which are two key steps, and they can't be done without senior technicians. At present, the Ordnance Supervisor can do this, and the total number of people is only a dozen or so. Therefore, the officials of the Ordnance Supervision began to complain to Jingwen that they could not increase the number of these technicians in a short period of time.

"It's really difficult to increase the number of technicians. However, in the long run, we still need to increase the number of technicians. So why don't we start a technician school? Jingwen asked.

"Technician school? What is this for? A technician asked.

Jingwen immediately explained: "The technician school is actually dedicated to training technicians, and the people in it have entered the technician school to learn what carpenters, blacksmiths, and various craftsmen's work, so that we can have many different kinds of technicians in the future." Moreover, in this way, we can also let a lot of people learn a skill, so that a lot of people can join the ranks of workers. In the future, we can also pass more and more workers and craftsmen, and then we can pass the strength of the population of craftsmen, and then produce more technicians! ”

Jingwen has actually had this idea for a long time, and Jingwen has always wanted to train some talents in science and engineering. But Jingwen has never had a clue, but now the appearance of these technicians has made Jingwen immediately find the key to open the door to science and engineering research. If Jingwen says what physical chemistry is being studied now, I'm afraid everyone won't understand. Moreover, Jingwen didn't have so many theories to study, and even if Jingwen took out the things in his later middle school, these ancient people didn't understand what it meant.

Although many elementary and middle school students in later generations understand something. But in ancient times, countless people didn't understand, and even the knowledge reserve of primary school students in later generations was much higher than that of ancient experts. This is also the accumulation of the times, and it is not so easy to bypass. And even if Jingwen opened a course in physical chemistry, the ancients didn't understand it! Therefore, you have to start from scratch so that you can study it slowly. Even if it is a desired physics and chemistry course, isn't it only through guò a long time of practice that you can initially study some clues? Therefore, Jingwen can only follow the old path of Westerners, and then explore some rules through guò for a long time. As for later. It can develop slowly.

And first of all, it is necessary to start with the technician school, because the technician school has a lot of practical things. In ancient times, many Taoist priests, many carpenters and blacksmiths of all kinds, they were actually using physical and chemical knowledge to work, but they all relied on experience to do it, not for the sake of research. And they rarely communicate with each other, so their results are not known to the outside world. Jingwen also wants to train technicians through the guò technician school, and then let them study them further.

As for the future, this technician school will also train various craftsmen for the general public. In the future, all kinds of people can come here to learn some ways to make a living. Carpenters, blacksmiths, stonemasons, etc., can come and learn. This would allow for a massive expansion of the ranks of those workers. In the future, those peasants who lost their land could also learn a skill through the guò technician school, so that they would not starve to death. This is also a way to divert employment pressure. It also increases the proportion of workers.

In fact, for Jingwen, a real person who lived in ancient times, Jingwen deeply knew that ancient times were not absolutely discriminatory against science. It was the situation in ancient times that caused the science to not develop too much, and that was because there was not much demand in ancient times. In ancient times, the literacy rate of the common people was extremely low. And in this case, what is needed first and foremost is the popularization of culture. In terms of popularizing culture, science is simply not comparable to liberal arts. So, at a time when popularizing culture is the first priority. The liberal arts are, of course, taken in absolute importance. Discrimination against science is not necessarily the malicious discrimination of the ancient literati, but the fact that there were too few things used in science in ancient times, and it is even said that the output of the common people in science is not too high. For example, science can produce a lot of industrial products, but the ancients couldn't use them at all, so you will naturally be in vain. Therefore, this qiē is judged according to social needs, and in ancient China, there was little or no demand for science, so many people discriminated against science.

Unless industrial production requires a large amount of scientific knowledge, and the proportion of workers in the population reaches a certain level, people will begin to value scientific knowledge. For example, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, China's industrial viability was greatly improved, so some people began to study Western physical and chemical knowledge, because this is also the reason for social needs. The more famous ones are Song Yingxing, Sun Yuanhua, and some Confucian scholars have also begun to study relevant knowledge, which is completely because the whole society needs it, so they began to break the ice of thinking.

As for this technician school, that is, Jingwen intends to use it to train workers. This would give future peasants who lost their land a way to live, and at that time the proportion of workers in the population increased a lot, so that the status of workers also accounted for a large proportion. Even in the future, through the guò industry, the knowledge of science and science can be promoted each other, so that the development of science research can be smooth. In fact, this is a mutual promotion, through the needs of society to promote the development of science, and the theoretical research of science knowledge also further stimulates the development of industry, so that they also promote each other.

"My lord, who will be the gentleman in this technician school?" Immediately a technician asked.

Jingwen immediately said: "You technicians can go to be gentlemen, and then teach your skills to those people, isn't that okay?" You are all technically good and fully capable of the duties of a teacher. ”

The technicians looked at each other, then shook their heads, apparently reluctant to teach them what they were capable of. Jingwen felt inexplicable, why didn't these technicians want to teach? Do these guys think they're not good at teaching students? (To be continued......)
