Chapter 164 Downstream (Update Completed)
"Sir, according to your opinion... can everyone really read..."
Ji Lin's eyes swept over the remaining mechanical masters who were sitting quietly in their seats, wearing black clothes, and several ordinary students with talent.
His eyes fell on the mechanical master who had just stood up and asked him a question.
"Do it."
Ji Lin wrote this word on the blackboard.
"No matter what, do whatever you think of, correct it if you make a mistake, there is nothing to be afraid of. Only by making everyone in the world literate can we recruit talents from all over the world, instead of being trapped in agriculture and sericulture, and putting up some flower racks with empty names."
There are not many people, only 30 people in this house, all of whom are the first batch of people selected by Ji Lin and Gui Yu when they checked the archives overnight a few days ago.
Most of them come from poor families, and only one is a mechanical master who really comes from the bottom of the peasantry.
Whether it is mechanical art, star vein art, or even the most common spells, the most basic requirement implied is literacy.
Any systematic education requires learners to have a literacy foundation. Simply relying on dialogue to transmit information is very inefficient and of low quality. As for knowledge related to mathematics and model equations, it is even more necessary to rely on books to preserve the books and texts left by the predecessors, and to obtain information.
Ji Lin wanted to quickly promote production, so he promoted literacy in the territory as soon as possible and completed preliminary literacy to facilitate the government affairs in the territory in the future. He couldn't have people take the decree to read for half a day every time. After the literacy was completed, the poster was patted up, and the crowd gathered around to see that they understood the decree.
The dynasty did not have such a demand. They only hoped that their farmers could honestly complete the work they should do. Recognizing words was even harmful and useless. They didn't know that becoming stupider was in line with their wishes. .
"Okay, today's class ends here."
Ji Lin packed up the textbooks on his desk. He still had some experience in government affairs. It was not a problem to make two temporary textbooks and combine them with the 21st century knowledge in his mind to tell these ancient people something.
What he could tell these people was scientific methodology and a future direction.
Ji Lin mixed some concepts discovered in modern physics into his philosophy and political thought class. Of course, he had not seen if anyone had discovered them here, and Ji Lin had no intention of becoming famous in this world as a plagiarist.
People who only rely on luck on the battlefield can't go far. When their luck runs out, their lives will come to an end.
Gui Yu can't move freely in the mechanical city of Momen. Her long, light gray and smooth hair is enough for everyone who sees her to recognize her identity.
Every day, she stays in her room and studies how to modify the neutralization device.
Thinking of this, Ji Lin smiled bitterly.
The old man told him the information that the world's veins are originally one, and handed him such important information. Now he doesn't know how to tell Gui Yu, who stays in his room every day to improve the neutralization device.
He tells Gui Yu directly and tells Ji Lin, which are two different attitudes.
The current Momen master has expressed his position on their actions and can support their actions to a certain extent.
But if things don't work out, he also hopes to leave a spark for Momen.
In a blink of an eye, thirty days had passed, and autumn had come to an end. The autumn harvest in all villages and towns had been successfully completed, which meant that some of them could rest for a while and did not have to run back and forth.
More and more people rushed back to the Mechanical City from all over the country. After arriving and seeing the natural disasters caused by the earth veins, those who were originally concentrating on research in the Mechanical City or serving the nobles would also think about the future of the world in their spare time.
Wang Qing also followed this trend of returning to the city and took the express train of his colleagues to arrive at the Mechanical City in advance, joining the army of lecturers, and exchanged his information with Ji Lin, and gained a lot from the lectures. Ji Lin also frankly explained his plan to this outstanding successor of the Mohist school.
There were more and more people in this small classroom, and the old man behind him changed a large classroom for him to give an overview. At this time, there were already two hundred people.
Ji Lin was still teaching in the classroom steadily. He could smoothly complete the pre-war mobilization in the face of tens of thousands of rats with surging heads, and the pressure of less than two hundred people did not make him lose his composure.
The Mohist disciples who came to listen to the lecture were all amazed at the breadth of Ji Lin's thoughts. He could quickly give an answer to almost every question raised by him. He was worthy of being invited by the great man to teach them knowledge.
Ji Lin knew that he was just taking advantage of his position at the bottom of history. Every question they asked had actually appeared in history, such as land annexation, separatist regimes, and extortion.
Ji Lin also told them about the more advanced social concepts such as the imperial examination system, the legal system, unified production lines, and standardized operations. He did not expect these people to understand, but as long as the meaning was conveyed, his basic goal would be achieved.
He never talked about righteousness and justice with these people. Ji Lin has always been a pragmatist. He would tell these questioners a possible solution direction and let them think about the specific solution to the problem by themselves, and hand it over to him after some time. He did not have time to cultivate this world deeply, so he could only let the people of this world solve their own problems.
First, the experience from different regions may not be suitable for local conditions, not to mention that this experience has transcended countless eras. If it is applied indiscriminately, it will inevitably become poison.
Secondly, Ji Lin had no confidence in his experience in internal affairs, so he was much more cautious when he spoke of these things.
In the end, the disciples who gathered at the Mohist School saw such a wonderful scene.
When talking about internal affairs, Ji Lin was timid, but when it came to military matters, he could immediately quote classics, recite the Thirty-Six Stratagems by heart, and construct virtual battle examples to deduce and follow suit. They talked more about how to use the existing mechanical beasts to fight more efficiently.
No longer delving into the skills of fighting alone, but fighting collectively in a team of three, one person restraining two people to attack, forming a local advantage to eliminate one person on the opposite side first, and then move forward.
In terms of overall strategy, there will not be a battle between the two sides like a large army, but actively using the high mobility of mechanical beasts to pull the enemy's forces, create small-scale conflicts, focus on attacking the enemy's logistics and supplies, weaken the enemy's strength, and then use the local force advantage to completely annihilate the target.
As for Gui Yu, thanks to the large number of people, he can wrap his head with a cloth and sneak out to see what Ji Lin is talking about in class.
It doesn't matter if they are discovered, they will not reveal their identities.
The people in this room are very reliable. Ji Lin has read the resumes of each of them. Even most of them can't say that they have a deep hatred with the nobles, but it has reached the point of blood feud. This is good, this hatred is their best motivation, they will not sympathize with this old world where there are still nobles and royal families.
They listened to Ji Lin's comprehensive description of a possible war in the future and pointed out their possible response plans.
Those who plan for victory before the battle have more to plan; those who plan for defeat before the battle have less to plan.
Since it has been planned to this point, everyone has thought of this. Swords are forged to kill people.
This world is going to change.
