Chapter 202: Building a School

After careful consideration, the protagonist decides to let these big workers and light gold workers learn some theoretical knowledge with them.

This theoretical knowledge ranges from theoretical knowledge such as elementary mathematics to practical knowledge of specific processes.

Subsequently, these big workers and light gold workers followed the secretary to various work sites in "Dongyang City" for internships and mastered practical experience.

After half a year of study, near the end of autumn, these big worker ants and light gold big worker ants can be regarded as having completed all their studies. Among this group of ants, due to IQ reasons, the understanding and application ability of knowledge is stronger than that of large workers.

In total, they have been educated for much longer than male ants, and they are basically taught by the protagonist himself. It can be said that these big worker ants and light gold big worker ants are the most understanding of the protagonist's thoughts in this world, and they are also the most knowledgeable ants.

Although their knowledge is still relatively rudimentary, for example, in mathematics, they have reached the level of human primary school students, and in terms of craftsmanship, they are comparable to Neolithic humans, but this already symbolizes that the fire of civilization is burning strongly.

After these big workers and light gold workers finished their studies, the protagonist was not in a hurry to assign them to various positions that urgently needed technicians.

Instead, two schools were built, not far from the nursery in Dongyang Castle. Each school can accommodate about 100 students, and one school is named "Elementary Technical School" with 40 large worker ants as teachers; Another "secondary technical school" is taught by 40 pale gold workers.

The protagonist decides to use the first batch of Workers and the Light Gold Workers as teachers, which is a deliberate decision. In this way, the second generation of students can be cultivated as quickly as possible, and the main character will not be wasted all his time teaching.

Of course, the quality of the students taught by the protagonist's students is certainly not as good as that taught by the protagonist himself, but they can be trained according to the needs of the job, and they do not need to be cultivated into all-round talents. On average, one teacher only leads two students, which can also improve the quality of teaching.

In addition, the protagonist plans to build a "higher technical school" by bringing together the best of teachers and future technicians, but this is a plan for the future and is not yet available.

After having enough teachers, the protagonist has the queen give birth to 200 worker ant eggs, ready to raise them into a large worker ant class.

Of the 200 worker eggs, 100 are ready to be cultivated into large worker ants according to the food ratio of the No. 3 nursery, and the other 100 are ready to be cultivated into light gold large worker ants according to the food ratio of the No. 5 nursery room.

These big worker ants and light gold big worker ants will first receive education in the "primary technical school", and then the big worker ants will graduate and be assigned to various positions. And the light gold workers will continue to receive education in "secondary technical schools" and then redistribute.

Now that there is a technical school, the protagonist simply institutionalizes the education of young male ants and prepares for a "political and military school".

The students at this school only have young males – and the males will not allow other classes to learn this kind of knowledge.

The school is slightly larger than the technical school and can accommodate two hundred students at a time, including one regular class and one flying knight class. However, there are very few teachers in the political and military school, and the teachers in the ordinary class are Lan Bofei, and an older male ant who assisted him in retiring from the Divine Envoy King Army. The teacher of the Flying Knight class is a cameo appearance of the Flying Knight, and the other Flying Knights also come back to teach when they are free.

To facilitate instruction, all three schools have built cobblestone floors to conference room standards.

- I'm the dividing line -

It's late autumn in the blink of an eye, and the weather is getting colder day by day, and the ants are busy desperately collecting all kinds of food in the last time to prepare for the harsh winter.

Thanks to the progress of agriculture, there is no shortage of food for the winter in this year's "Dongyang City".

Mealworm and maggot farms have not been further expanded, as the existing scale is sufficient to feed far more meat than the existing ant population, and even to make cured meat far more than the winter needs. Even if mealworms and flies stop growing and reproducing in winter, there is no need to worry about a lack of meat.

Under the guidance of the protagonist, the worker ants, led by the large worker ants and light gold worker ants engaged in technical work, began to select the fastest growing insects, the largest number of eggs and the most delicious flesh from the huge number of mealworms according to the shape they exhibited. Only these selected mealworms will be able to grow and reproduce after the beginning of spring next year.

In addition, the technicians began to study the ratio of feed. In the past, all kinds of food residues, tender vegetable leaves, grass seeds, etc. were only widely thrown into the farm, resulting in indigestion, slow growth and even disease and death of some mealworms. The protagonist has the intention to change this situation, but the most scientific feed ratio is still being explored, and it seems that it will take some time.

The first wave of weeds planted near the exit of "Dongyang Castle" was harvested in the summer, and a large amount of grass seeds was planted to replenish the insufficient amount of grass seeds collected. The ants then cleared the fields while the weather was still warm, sowed more grass seeds, and harvested a second crop of grain in the fall.

Compared to animal husbandry, cropping is still in its infancy, but technicians are already working on topics such as planting density, weeding, fertilization and irrigation under the guidance of the protagonists.

Progress and development in agriculture are evident to all, but there is no stopping in industry.

Originally, only the little secretary took the lead in the process research project, but since the big worker ants and light gold worker ants hatched by the parasitic ant chrysalis joined, the progress has been greatly accelerated, and there is no need for the protagonist to run to the door in person for three days. This will be accelerated after the second batch of students from technical schools join.

Although there is no breakthrough in technology at present, the protagonist has already pointed out the direction of subsequent development: stone tool technology, more sophisticated pottery, tools and vehicles suitable for ants, etc.

The protagonist believes that over time, advanced technology will be a strong support for "Dongyang City".

- I'm the dividing line -

In the past six months, the overall external situation of "Dongyang City" has been relatively peaceful.

After the expulsion of the parasitic ant forces, there were no hostile forces in the vicinity of "Dongyang Castle" that could threaten their side. Although the parasitic ants have not been completely eradicated, the Flying Knights have been unable to find any trace of them, and the protagonist is unsure whether they have gone into hiding or have failed in the fierce competition for survival.

However, there were some skirmishes between the defenders of the "Stump Fortress" and the nearby Scythe Hunters, and after the absence of parasitic ants, the power of the Scythe Hunters also expanded rapidly, and they continued to break into new groups, seize the territory vacated by the parasitic ants after leaving, and finally came to the vicinity of the "Stump Fortress".
