Chapter 62 The Faculty of Engineering and Science is opened
"Your Excellency, please see." Li Zhizhi said; "This is in the middle of the Yangtze River, high and far away, near the river and sighing, it is a good place for Taiping Mansion."
Seeing this, He Xi sighed: "It is indeed a good place of first class." ”
Li Zhizhi has made a lot of effort in order to shoot He Xi. Here is a neat courtyard, on the river island. Although it is a little inconvenient to come and go by boat. But for the place to study, being far away from the city cannot be called bad.
There is also a complete school field here. There is a lot of land on Jiangxinzhou that is owned by Jiangxinzhou Academy. Of course, Li Zhizhi also has some borrowed flowers to offer Buddha. Jiangxinzhou is in the middle of the Yangtze River, and the area is not small. But with the pros comes the disadvantages.
Once the Yangtze River floods, although the entire Jiangxinzhou will not be washed away and submerged. But that doesn't mean the land on Jiangxinzhou won't be submerged.
Therefore, these lands are not considered good fields. But as a school field, it is still possible to support the use of the academy.
However, under Li Zhi's order, Jiang Xinzhou Academy was turned into He Xi's College of Engineering and Science, although it was not a clever robbery. After all, now that the Ming Dynasty has only been founded for more than ten years, the so-called local gentry have not yet grown up. Most of the land belonged to the imperial court.
As the prefect, Li Zhizhi naturally has the power to transfer.
It's just that the teachers and students of Jiang Xinzhou Academy are not very reluctant.
However, their wishes can't come to He Xi here, and they can't even pass Li Zhizhi's pass.
He Xi also saw that this was originally a academy, and he even studied here not long ago. After all, a house where someone lives, and a house that no one lives in. You can see it at a glance. However, this place meets He Xi's requirements, especially Li Zhizhi's He Xi can see Linjiang Tower. The three-storey building, at the westernmost end of Jiangxinzhou, looks from afar, like the water of the Yangtze River, which is divided into two in front of you. There is more river breeze, and I don't know how much better it is than Nanjing, which is like a stove.
He Xi said: "Then thank you Lord Li." ”
Li Zhizhi said: "Lord He, the lower officials have something to ask for. ”
He Xi said: "Please speak." ”
Li Zhizhi said: "The family is unfortunate, and there is a rebel in the clan. The dogs have reckless qualifications and are unbearable to teach, and the lower officials want them to be skilled in the middle school of the College of Engineering and Science. It's also a way to settle down, I don't know ------? adults ”
He Xi glanced at Li Zhi, and said secretly in his heart: "It's really going to happen." ”
Five-grade official, a prefect. Although he is not a high-ranking official in Daming, he must not be regarded as a petty official. their power, their political influence. Even if it is not illegal. It's enough to arrange the whole family. What else do you need to be good at it, and you can settle down and make a living.
Speaking of which, this Li Zhizhi is still trying to find a way to get closer to He Xi. He may not be able to afford to learn from craftsmen, but it doesn't matter, as long as He Xi values it. In order to flatter Shangguan in the officialdom, I don't know how many people have no lower limit.
even gave his wife to Shangguan. Where did it go?
He Xi said: "There is no problem, just let him come." ”
Li Zhizhi left with great gratitude.
Princess Anqing came over and said, "This place is good, the Taiping prefect has a heart." ”
He Xi said: "I'm afraid he has a heart." ”
There is no shortage of people in officialdom who sharpen their heads and climb up. As long as they can climb up, they can do anything. As far as the change of law is concerned. There is a shortage of people who support the change. There is no one in He Xi's entrainment. And if Li Zhizhi is accepted, Li Zhizhi is also the prefect of a prefecture, and under the operation of He Xi, it is not impossible to be a provincial political envoy for a year or two.
But Wang Anshi has a lesson from the past. Where to put it.
Although Wang Anshi's original intention of changing the law was good. But the majority of the new party is noticeably less moral than the old party. Being an official for the sake of being an official, what changes the law does not change the law, it is just a tool for glory and wealth.
Now, He Xi understands more and more that Zhu Yuanzhang has been standing still, as if nothing had happened.
This matter is really urgent.
------
At this moment, Li Zhizhi was reprimanding his son and said, "You remember." Don't think about Confucius and Mencius anymore, what you want to learn now is Hezi. As long as you can worship under the door of He Fuma, anything will do. You know? ”
Li Zhizhi's son, Li Yunxing said lightly; "Got it."
Obviously, the son did not understand his father's intentions. Li Yunxing may not be a true believer in Confucianism, but overnight, he made him change what he learned and negate everything he had learned before. It's hard for individuals to accept.
But in these matters, Li Zhizhi has the absolute right to decide. Son Li Yunxing, if he wants to oppose it, he can't oppose it. You can only bow your head and admit it.
Li Zhizhi also saw Li Yunxing's unconvincing. said: "I know you are not convinced. Don't you know the news that came a few days ago? Song Ne, the old master of Song as His Majesty called, died in front of Fengtianmen like that, and when he heard that he died a miserable death, his whole body seemed to be charred. Your Majesty's mind is already very clear. In the future, the great master of the Ming Dynasty will be the best of the day, and the rest of the people will stand aside. You read mediocre. Now the imperial examination is not easy to open. If others want to be thrown into He Ximen, they must first pay tribute. After the tribute is drawn, he will also compete for a place in the national prison. Then I will be able to meet Lord Ho. Lord Ho is here today. That's great news. Why don't you catch it? ”
Li Yunxing said: "But learn the skills of those craftsmen. What can it be? ”
"You're stupid. You only need to be a disciple of Lord He. If you ask him about something else in the future, maybe learn something else from their brothers, won't they teach him? Li Zhizhi said.
Li Zhizhi's approach is equivalent to taking the unpopular major of a famous university first, and then changing majors after being admitted.
Li Yunxing muttered in his heart: "How can it be so simple." ”
Whether it's that simple or not.
Li Yunxing couldn't resist this decision.
------
He Xi came here, not to have a vacation with Princess Anqing. So on the second day, everyone began to be summoned to a meeting.
It's just that after seeing these people, He Xi still sighed a little.
Because the Faculty of Engineering teaches the science of craftsmen, almost all of them have no intention of applying. Those who came were all children of the craftsmen's own families. That's it. There are also not enough teachers. He Xi could only send his housekeeper Yang Zhen here as a teacher.
Someone asked, isn't the college of engineering supposed to teach professional courses? Yes. The premise of all professional courses is that these people are literate and have the most basic mathematical foundation. But the foundation of these craftsmen is almost zero.
No matter what Yang Zhen says, he is a prisoner of the country. At the moment, I am the teacher who is the basic lesson for these students.
And Ge Tian works as a teacher of professional classes. Of course, there are no professional classes here.
Because some principles of mechanics, metallurgical principles, and other subjects must be taught, but they are not the main ones. What He Xi needs is to solve the problem. What problems, the problem of mining ore, solving all the problems of mining, metallurgy, forging, this line.
These questions are not the knowledge that He Xi can bring back from the mobile phone and computer. And even if you bring some back, it is estimated that you will not be able to use it. Without him, separated by six hundred years, the foundation is too different. In later generations, smelting and mining and other technologies rarely did not use electricity. The problem of power generation is a problem that He Xi may not be able to solve for most of his life.
Therefore, He Xi can only do one thing.
He gathered these old craftsmen together and said, "Now that the Institute of Engineering and Science has been established, it will be the cradle of craftsmen in the world in the future." It is also the way for craftsmen to enter the profession in the future. But there are not enough textbooks today, so I would like to ask you to tell me about your experience and put it together in a book. to teach the younger generations. ”
These craftsmen do not speak.
He Xi knew that whatever enlightenment he told these people was in vain. Just take the benefits, he continued: "Among these students, there are children of your family, and it can be regarded as a fertilizer that does not flow into the fields of outsiders. Moreover, those who contribute to this matter. In the future, there will be a place for him in this academy, even if you can't do it. I can also retire at school. The college will provide for you in old age. There is a monthly money every month, even if it is gone. also handle the aftermath. ”
"What do you think? Is it intentional? ”
As soon as He Xi's words came out, someone finally came forward.
