Chapter 156 Opening an academy to train high-tech talents

The officials and students who were lining up and facing the big sun were as comfortable as drinking a bowl of chilled mung bean soup, and everyone was attentive and stopped talking.

"Qi Tai, you have been the secretary of the military department, I won't test you, as far as I just asked, in terms of strengthening the imperial power, or the country's control over the army, do you think that what improvements need to be made in my Ming military department at the moment?"

This proposition is too broad, Qi Tai didn't understand, he was nervous and scared, he couldn't hold back a sentence for a long time, and finally said, "Minister, minister thinks, to more, let the generals fight, avoid talking on paper!" ”

The audience was silent, and even Zhu Di was speechless for a long time!

Zhu Gaoxian sighed, "This is really heartfelt words!" ”

He thought for a while, "Qi Tai, I admire and agree with the spirit you want to shine for my Daming." However, I think, like you said, in order to avoid talking on paper, we will try to use people with practical experience for each position. I have a position here that suits you, I don't know if you would like to do it? “

"The order of the four princes, the ministers will obey their orders!"

Zhu Gaoxian beckoned to the door, the dog was waiting outside, and after seeing it, he hurriedly came in with a machine, which was not big, no more than a foot and a half long, less than a foot wide and high, all made of metal, placed on the table, attracting everyone's attention.

Zhu Gaoxian circled around the typewriter and pointed to everyone, "I'll show you my latest invention of the Ming Dynasty, this is a typewriter, I want to invite a few people who write the best and fastest to come and try it with me!" ”

Zhu Di got up immediately, he came to his son's side excitedly, and almost without hesitation, he stood aside with his son, his voice trembled, "Whoever of you has the ability to stand up, whether you win or lose, I am in charge, and I will give you a position." ”

At that moment, there was the brave man who stood up, Zhu Gaoxian pointed to five at random, asked people to move tables, chairs and benches, prepared pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and said, "Take the Analects as an example, let's try to copy the Analects, you must be able to write silently with your eyes closed, no need to turn the book, no need to waste time, we don't compare who writes completely, if you make a mistake, it doesn't matter, just try to write at the speed and neatness." ”

Everyone's eyes widened, and the people standing behind them also stood on tiptoe and began to look.

With Zhu Di's order, everyone saw that the ten fingers of the fourth prince were tapping on the operating surface of the machine like flying, and the crisp sound was pleasant.

And the nibs of the five people are also like flying, not only requiring neatness, but at this time, the emperor must not be able to see that his words are not worth mentioning; Asking for speed again, after a while, the five of them were sweating.

Zhu Di looked at his son's ten fingers intently, and after a while, he saw the sound of Kakaka coming, and slowly spit out a piece of paper from the machine, which was the "Analects", and the difference was that there were things like tadpoles and small dots in the sentences of the Analects.

At first, Zhu Di didn't know what it was, but he looked at it for a while and realized that his son was actually using this to break sentences.

Xia Yuanji and the others saw Zhu Di coming, they had already come over, and at this time, they were gathered around, and Ru Yu, seeing Ka Ka Ka, the speed at which the paper was spit out was so fast, the key was that the words on it were the same size, neat and uniform, how fast the key was.

You don't need to look at other people's writing speed, just look at the speed of these words typed out by the fingers of the four princes, and the level is already immediate!

"Good stuff!" Zhu Di is so proud that he wants to fly, with this thing, how much trouble will be saved!

He looked at his son with starry eyes, "Good son, did you make this?" ”

In just a few minutes, Zhu Gaoxian had already typed out a piece of paper full of "Analects", he glanced at the five people, there was no need to compete anymore, he stood up and said to Zhu Di, "Dad, my son has a reluctant request!" ”

"You say!" Zhu Di had already anticipated what his son was going to say, and he didn't agree.

"The officials in the court who are used to copy official documents can be cut out of eight-tenths, but before that, a few more typists must be trained, this machine is called a typewriter, and it was made by the son's team to congratulate his father!"

Zhu Di was proud, laughed, patted his son's shoulder, and said with a smile, "What other conditions, say it together, and my father will promise you!" ”

Zhu Gaoxian said, "My son wants to open an academy, the Ming Imperial Academy, in the future, the people from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War will try to hire from this academy, please approve it!" ”

"Accurate!" Zhu Di agreed to his son's conditions almost without thinking, and he seemed to understand why his son asked such a question at this time, so he asked very forcefully, "What are you going to teach in this college?" ”

"My son opened this college, which will be divided into four levels, the county school enlightenment, the state capital to learn to teach some in-depth knowledge, the provincial school to participate in the assessment, and the qualified ones will be admitted to the Ming Imperial Academy, and they will be high-tech talents for me in the future."

Many people hear the word "high-tech" for the first time, and many people don't understand it.

Someone came from the north and took this opportunity to say excitedly, "I know that the cultivators in Beiping are used to cultivate the land, and they can plough thirty or forty acres of land a day, and some are skilled in operation and can plough forty or fifty acres of land, and the tractor can also pull goods, which is much more and faster than the ox cart!" ”

Tractor? A lot of people shook their heads, I've heard of it!

Xia Yuanji thought of the tractor, thought of the textile machine, thought of the sewing machine, looked at the typewriter in front of him, he knew too well what the high-tech Zhu Gaoxian was talking about, the blood boiled all over his body, and he arched his hand towards Zhu Gaoxian, "The fourth prince, the minister wants to ask for a grace!" ”

"What grace?" Zhu Gaoxian looked at him with a smile.

"The minister has a son, talented and intelligent......"

Zhu Gaoxian didn't wait for him to finish, and waved his hand, "Lao Xia, if you enter my business, you must be able to endure hardships, have a sense of national honor, and treat Daming as your home, otherwise, in the future, the people of the Northern Yuan Dynasty will spend a lot of money to poach people, who will I cry to?" Therefore, I only recruit the sons of the poor, the sons of military households, and the sons of artisans, and give me the class of the great minna to pay taxes and serve as conscripts, and I will only accept them! ”

Zhu Gaoxian patted Xia Yuanji's shoulder, who had an ugly face, and smiled, "You said, you are an official who specially stretched out his hand to my Daming, has no credit at all, and is unwilling to contribute, what am I doing here?" ”
