Chapter 358: 9-Sky Tower Falling Object Experiment
Before the Imperial College opened, Wen Lu selected one thousand students who passed the exam and allowed them to study at the Imperial College. The rest who failed were all sent back and asked to come back next year.
In mid-March, the Imperial College finally opened, and all the invited scholars and teachers were in place.
The emperor and Prince Lanling personally went to the Imperial College to cut the ribbon, and the emperor even gave a speech in person.
It took a whole day for the students to decorate their dormitories, familiarize themselves with the environment, arrange books, etc. The Imperial Academy immediately became lively.
The students ate free and delicious meals and lived in warm, windproof and rainproof houses. They all had smiles on their faces.
What's more, some people even wrote poems to praise Shen Changgong.
There are tens of thousands of Ande Guangsha, sheltering the world with joy.
The Imperial College is divided into departments, each with its own specialization, and each department studies different things.
The liberal arts are naturally taught by great scholars, and the science subjects are currently focused on mathematics, physics and military affairs.
On the military side, Shen Changgong directly invited Yu Huatian and the generals in the army to come and teach.
Among the one thousand students, there are eight hundred in the liberal arts class and two hundred in the science class.
Among the two hundred people, one hundred and twenty were studying military affairs.
All that was left for Shen Changgong were eighty people from mathematics and physics.
Among these people, few really want to learn. Most of them come here because of their status as the prince's disciples.
After all, people of this era have very traditional ideas and still want to learn literature and become civil servants.
Knowing that there were not many people in Shen Changgong's class, the empress specially brought her harem to support him.
Yan Fuyao, Gongsun Wan'er, Tang Xinyi and Jiang Ruoxue are all here.
Shen Changgong simply gathered these eighty people into a classroom. After all, mathematics, physics and chemistry are inseparable, and mathematics is the foundation of everything.
Mathematics in this era was also based on the decimal system, but it used traditional Chinese characters, which was very troublesome. If there were many digits, the number would have to be very long to write.
Shen Changgong directly used Arabic numerals instead of traditional Chinese characters, which made it easier to write formulas, calculations, etc.
In the morning, in the first class, Shen Changgong didn't teach anything, but just asked them to memorize the ten numbers from 0 to 9.
Because the pronunciation is the same, it is easier to memorize.
Then, Shen Changgong taught them to use symbols such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to list simple formulas. This way, calculations would be very time-saving and fast.
The students gradually accepted this algorithm.
At this time, Yan Fuyao raised his hand and asked,
"Teacher Shen, how do you calculate the continuous multiplication, division, addition and subtraction of multi-digit numbers?"
Shen Changgong pretended to have glasses, raised his middle finger and pushed the non-existent glasses, then said,
"That's a second-grade class. First-grade kid, please take a seat."
Yan Fuyao glared at him fiercely.
At noon, everyone went to the cafeteria to eat together. His Majesty the Emperor did not make any special arrangements. He had fun with the people and personally tasted the food from the Imperial College.
The canteen did not cut corners and the food was very oily. Yan Fuyao was very satisfied and called the canteen manager over, explaining that only good food can cultivate excellent talents, and they are all contributing to the country.
The canteen manager was terrified.
After dinner, Shen Changgong walked around the Imperial College and saw several stone tablets.
His famous quotes are engraved on them.
“A weak country has no diplomacy.”
"Dignity is only above the edge of the sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon."
"If the youth are strong, the country will be strong; if the youth are wise, the country will be wise; if the youth are prosperous, the country will be prosperous."
“Only by learning can a country become strong.”
Many students have gained profound insights and have memorized these sentences by heart.
In the afternoon, the lessons continued.
This is the time to learn physics, but considering that many people don’t even know what physics is and are not very interested, Shen Changgong decided to do a few experiments to tell them what physical phenomena are.
He did not enter the classroom, but instead mobilized more than a dozen carriages to take the more than eighty students to Jiutian Tower.
Sitting on the dragon chariot, the empress asked with a smile,
"How long has it been since I last saw your Fairy Meiyan? Do you miss her so much?"
Shen Changgong said with a righteous look,
"This prince has only the heart of teaching and educating people. When have I ever thought of such things? Your Majesty, please do not slander me."
"Oh, you're so upright and don't like women?"
"of course."
"Well, tonight, none of you are allowed to open the door for him."
"No, no, no, look at you, you only know how to bully me."
Shen Changgong put on a shy smile, put his arms around the empress's slender waist, and looked like a fawning treacherous minister.
"What are you going to do at Jiutian Tower this time?"
"You'll know when you get there. Didn't you notice that we're missing someone?"
"There's someone missing? Who is it?"
Gongsun Wan'er said quickly,
"Your Majesty, that bitch Tu Que Ling is gone."
Yan Fuyao rolled his eyes at her and said,
"Que Ling is a good person, and you are a good person too. I really don't know what's wrong with the two of you. You always quarrel as soon as you meet."
Shen Changgong smiled and said,
"It's good to have fun and play around."
"Bah, whoever has a good relationship with her, I want to beat her to death."
Gongsun Wan'er waved her fist and pointed at Shen Changgong and said,
"And you!"
Shen Changgong sneered and said nothing more.
After being together for so long, he had long figured out why Gongsun Wan'er always provoked him. The more fierce her provocation, the harder he would be beaten at night, and the more pleasure of revenge he would feel in his heart.
Haha, this cunning little M.
Soon, the dragon chariot arrived at the gate of Jiutian Tower, where a carriage was parked and Tu Queling had been waiting for a long time.
"Is everything ready?"
"I'm ready, my lord."
"Walk."
Tu Queling had a large box lifted down from the carriage, and Shen Changgong led his men into the Jiutian Tower in a mighty procession.
After receiving the news, Fairy Mei Yan hurried out. She was shocked to see Shen Changgong bringing the emperor and so many other people.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Are you here to wipe out our Jiutian Tower?"
Fairy Meiyan folded her arms and stared at Shen Changgong.
Shen Changgong laughed, walked over and pinched the charming and beautiful face, and said,
"Nothing, I just want to borrow your tower to do an experiment.
If your people want to see it, they can come and watch.”
"What experiment?"
"Don't ask, just watch."
A large group of people came to the bottom of Jiutian Tower. Many people from the martial arts world of Jiutian Tower also gathered around curiously, wondering what was going on.
Tu Queling put the box on the ground and opened it.
Shen Changgong bent down and took out two things.
"Look, everyone. In my left hand, I hold a genuine gold brick. In my right hand, I hold an ordinary red brick, the kind used to build houses. You have all seen them.
Now, I will randomly invite two students to come and take it. Just two people come out."
Immediately, two students came out.
Shen Changgong handed the two bricks to the two of them in turn.
