I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

The pilot college quickly determined the address, the teacher, and the name. It was called the University College. At the same time, admission notices were posted all over Wusong.

Anyone over the age of thirteen, literate, and intelligent can enroll for free.

However, the final elimination system will be implemented in the colleges, and exams will be held every ten days, and the last few students will face the risk of being eliminated.

This is an innovation of Wu Changqing. Of course, compared with the content taught in the university, this little innovation is very inconspicuous.

In the admission notice, it is very clear that the graduate school is not a formal academy, so in addition to classics, there are also policy theory, physics, chemistry, geography, and arithmetic.

Policy theory, arithmetic, and geography are still understood by readers, and even most readers have at least a little foundation in these. After all, if you want to be an official, you must know basic arithmetic. You also need some understanding of the human geography of various places. Policy theory is even more important, which is the knowledge of local governance.

However, physics and chemistry have left many people puzzled, until someone explained to them that physics is to check things, and then someone slammed it, as if suddenly realized.

What is even more mysterious is the so-called chemistry, which is not even explained by the announcer himself.

Of course, these are not the point, the point is that both physical chemistry and geography are taught by Wu Changqing himself.

"Isn't this nonsense, how can he teach us a sixteen-year-old uncrewed person?"

In a restaurant, several scholars were talking about the Great Hall.

In the era of war, it was difficult for them to mix with scholars. The imperial examinations are still far away, and they can only worry and study hard.

And now, Wu Changqing is going to open a university hall, and many scholars are wondering whether Wu Changqing should prepare for the imperial examination. However, the news they received made them a little frustrated.

Daxuetang is not a school in the traditional sense, and it teaches mostly miscellaneous studies.

What's the use of learning this stuff? The imperial examinations do not test these.

More importantly, this university is like a child's play, and the person in charge of teaching physical chemistry is actually Wu Changqing himself.

Although, Wu Changqing was very powerful in the military, with outstanding military exploits and invincible. However, that didn't change the fact that he was a sixteen-year-old boy.

Sixteen years old, not even crowned, that is, underage.

How much knowledge can a person of this age have to teach others?

In this era, a teacher is still a relatively sacred and serious profession, and not everyone is qualified to do it. Going to teach children's Mongolian studies is not bad, as long as you have studied the Four Books and Five Classics.

However, in order to teach those scholars who have completed the Mongolian study, they must be qualified by a great Confucian of high morality.

"Hey, the world is in chaos right now, and I don't know when the imperial examinations will be reopened. I think there is nothing to do anyway, so I might as well go to the university hall to have a look."

Another reader sighed.

Feng Xianzhong shook his head when he heard the words. He scoffed at the words. What's the use of studying those miscellaneous studies? He didn't take the imperial examinations.

Although the imperial examination has now been suspended, the imperial court needs officials to govern the world, and the imperial examination will be held sooner or later. Not only did the Ming Dynasty in the south reopen, but the Manchu and Qing Tatars in the north wanted to govern the world, and imperial examinations were also essential.

Just when Feng Xianzhong was about to leave home to continue studying hard, his close friend Liu Tao took him aside.

"Brother Liu, what are you doing?" Feng Xianzhong asked.

"Brother Feng, hurry up and get ready to go to the university with me to sign up." Liu Tao said.

"Da Xue Tang, what's the use of learning those miscellaneous things?" Feng Xianzhong said disdainfully.

Liu Tao smiled when he heard the words, and said, "Brother Feng's words are bad. Is it important to use this miscellaneous study? We study for the sake of being an official, and now the great opportunity is in front of us, how can we miss it? ."

Feng Xianzhong didn't understand, and Liu Tao could only continue to explain: "My father is working for General Wu now, and he has some inside information. It is reported that General Wu taught himself to select a group of outstanding talents to be him. Staff, now you understand."

Feng Xianzhong immediately understood when he heard the words, Wu Changqing's power was expanding too fast, and there must be a serious shortage of available people under him. At this time, it is reasonable to recruit some staff to do things.

Although he didn't understand why Wu Changqing chose this way, it didn't matter. Anyway, as long as he had the opportunity to become an official, he had to find a way to seize it.

Although Wu Changqing's staff is not a formal official establishment, the work of the staff is no different from that of ordinary officials.

In the future, whether Wu Changqing accepts the reward from the Ming Dynasty or surrenders to the Manchu-Qing Tatars, his power will be guaranteed, and his staff will definitely be well placed.

If you are lucky enough to get Wu Changqing's appreciation, you can also give Wu Changqing advice and become Wu Changqing's right-hand man. This position is more popular than the general magistrates.

And if you want to become a county magistrate, at least you have to take the second-class jinshi or above, which is as difficult as reaching the sky.

"If that's the case, then I really have to go and have a look."

For Liu Tao's words, Feng Xianzhong completely believed, because Liu Tao's father is now working for Wu Changqing, and he must know more inside information.

"Hahaha, with Brother Feng's talent, it is inevitable to stand out from the crowd in the future. Don't forget to take care of my little brother."

Liu Tao said with a smile, he is far inferior to Feng Xianzhong in his self-awareness and learning, so he listened to his father's words, became close to Feng Xianzhong since he was a child, and gave him frequent support.

The reason is that when Feng Xianzhong develops in the future, he can remember the kindness of their family.

This is basically a common practice in this era. If a person has shown the potential of a child prodigy since he was a child, then there is no need to worry about not having money to study, and some large families will sponsor it.

And these people who received funding often formed a community of interests with those big landlords and big businessmen, and they often argued with the emperor in the court to protect the interests of big landlords and big businessmen.

Feng Xianzhong is such a prodigy. Although it is a bit exaggerated that he can read at the age of three and write poetry at the age of four, he did pass the entrance exam at the age of thirteen.

Now only eighteen years old, he has already passed the government examination. At this rate, a jinshi will not be able to run sooner or later. If he performs well, he may even be ranked in the rank of jinshi, that is, the top three, the second place in the championship and the third overall.

"Uncle Liu's kindness, of course, will not be forgotten."

Feng Xianzhong said.

Similar discussions about the Great Hall were staged all over Wusong. Many scholars chose to wait and see, but some people chose to give it a try.

This part of the people either have inside information like Liu Tao, or they are some desperate scholars who are ready to go to the dead horse to become a living horse doctor.

Even if the miscellaneous things they learned are useless, they won't have much loss, anyway, the university doesn't charge tuition fees.
