Rhine knocked off a knight's weapon for the thirtieth time. This knight was Hillier, who was recognized as the strongest among the knights, but no one present doubted that this was a show. Especially the knight who was the first to rush forward and wanted to show off his martial arts skills in front of the earl lowered his head in shame.
Rhine's strength is beyond their imagination. In their hearts, he is probably the most brave and capable noble. Hillier looked at Rhine with bright eyes. It was obvious that he truly believed Rhine's words at this moment, and therefore respected him even more.
Because they were beaten badly in the battle, the knights' expectations for themselves were suddenly disappointed. When the Rhine arranged land for them, no one had the nerve to complain about the location of the land. The Earl gave them the opportunity to seize the most fertile land, but they were not strong enough and did not seize this opportunity. They were willing to admit defeat. What was there to complain about when they took the remote wasteland
Rhine's arrangements for the army have finally come to an end, and the thirty knights are performing their duties. The only bad thing is that Hillier is even busier, and Rhine cannot use him.
However, through this battle, Rhine finally vindicated his strength. When he was about to go out again, John and Joseph no longer complained about the fact that there was no knight with him.
Rhine finally decided to take action in academia. Hillier was in charge of the army, and the steward Joseph was in charge of agriculture and tax collection in Cannor. After much deliberation, Rhine decided to train John to be in charge of education and academic matters.
In fact, considering how poor Rhine is now, he really wants to engage in business, but doing business is too eye-catching. Although he had been active in the past, agriculture, the army, and subsequent academics were all areas that the nobles were not interested in. Business is different. Firstly, no nobles will do business on their own. Secondly, the large amount of wealth associated with business is too eye-catching. The combination of the two can easily make Rhine the target of public criticism, which is not conducive to Rhine and Cannor. sustainable development.
Rhine had no choice but to endure it, hold on with all his strength, and wait until the water was muddied before ending.
There were several universities in Cannau, and Rhine went to the one Gertrude went to most often.
There is a central square in the university. On weekdays, if someone wants to do something, they can set up a simple stall here and hang a banner. In the past, the most popular thing here was nothing but divination, which was often done by students studying astronomy to earn some money for drinking.

Rhine decided to do a mathematics topic today, and asked John to unfurl a banner - "String Vibration Equation". This is a typical partial differential equation problem, and also mixed with some basic physics knowledge. According to Rhine's understanding, there is already a lot of basic understanding of physics in this era. Although there is no systematic knowledge system construction and no specialized subject professors, it is not difficult to understand the physical knowledge in string vibration.
Mathematics has always been one of the subjects with the longest history of development. Geometry, which originated in Greece, is simple and elegant. Through the definition of "point, line, and straight line", the definition of any other concept can be easily expanded. It is a quite rigorous subject. With the development and expansion of geometry, the subject of arithmetic gradually emerged, and finally it was defined as mathematics together with other more unpopular directions.
Compared with other subjects, mathematics is the most developed subject in this era, so Rhine chose to start with mathematics. Partial differential equations are one of the fields most integrated with other disciplines, and can effectively drive everyone's research on other disciplines. Rhine did not want to simply be a disseminator of knowledge. He hoped to ignite everyone's enthusiasm for research and explore the mysteries of the world. When the explosion of knowledge occurred, the best opportunity for him and Hill came.
John went to discuss funding for the school with the principal on behalf of Rhine. Although Rhine was very poor, this was a necessary thing. Most schools have church influence involved. In order to ensure the success of Rhine's follow-up work, he could only pay to become one of the school directors.
Rhine sighed silently in his heart: "No matter how hard and poor we are, we still need to engage in education."
System: "Bah, I don't mean the same thing to you at all."
There was no easy-to-use blackboard at this time, so Rhine could only set up a wooden board there, put a piece of paper on it, and write on it with a pen. Rhine, who was also very poor today, shed tears of poverty and wrote down an illustration of the string vibration problem and several hypotheses on a white paper.
The pulled string is soft and elastic, and vibrates slightly horizontally under the action of an external force perpendicular to the string. Find the shape of the string at different times.
Most people in the school knew Rhine's face. They had debated with Gertrude and learned a lot of knowledge they had never learned before. Some people were secretly studying subjects they had never heard of before, just because of Gertrude. Trude was executed by the Holy See and did not dare to be exposed. They knew that the count and Gertrude were lovers, and that after Gertrude's death, everyone had not seen him on campus for a long time.
Therefore, Rhine attracted everyone's attention when he appeared here. Then, they noticed the banner, string vibration equation
Everyone couldn't help but gathered around.
To be honest, the fact that Gertrude was burned to death was a shadow in their hearts. One of the crimes she was burned to death for was spreading heresy. But those who have participated in the debate know best what the facts are.
The so-called truth becomes clearer with more debate.
What Gertrude said perfectly explained the doubts in many people's minds, and no one has yet been able to find a counterexample to falsify it. It was not Gertrude who was at fault, so it became more obvious who was at fault. Just because they dare not speak out does not mean that they believe the Holy See's lies. The guilt of not being able to stand up for Gertrude accumulated in my heart, and I was always watered by anger. Sooner or later, it would grow into a towering tree.
Today, even if Rhine comes up to discuss biology, which is most likely to conflict with the Holy See, there are still passionate students who dare to rush up to discuss with him, not to mention that he is discussing a safe and conservative mathematical problem.
When John came back, he saw that our master was tightly surrounded by a group of young students. Each student was in a hurry to speak, and his face was red and his neck was thick because of the argument. Rhine sat there calmly, and when he heard some speech in the wrong direction, Only then did he give a few words of guidance. Due to Rhein's suggestions from time to time, everyone debated all afternoon, and finally came up with some of the essence of partial differentials. Rhine saw two talents from his students. A young man named James was very interested in physics, and Thomas on the side had a typical mathematical mind.
Rhine was not in a hurry to get in touch with these young people. He just kept it in mind and planned to keep working hard and stay in the school every day to bring something new to everyone.
The hints given by Rhine were subtle but not obtrusive. Those guys who were obsessed with solving problems didn't realize that Rhine was guiding everyone to solve the problems with the answers. They didn't even think that it was Rhine's credit that they were able to find the right direction in such a short time. This is exactly the effect Rhine wants. He hopes that they will find the answer themselves. Compared with Gertrude telling them the answer directly, the answer they derive by themselves can change their beliefs more.
Rhine went to the campus during the day, and when he returned to the castle at night, he squeezed the coolies of the system and began to translate the Bible into other languages.
When the church first began as a religious organization, it did not have as much power as it does now. However, after a certain king tied politics and religion in order to stabilize politics, the power of the church became more and more powerful. Today, it can be said that it has a complex structure and strict hierarchy. The church also holds the power to interpret the Bible tightly in its hands, using religious beliefs to achieve its goals through interpretations that are beneficial to itself.
If Rhine wants to break this situation, the most important thing is to make the Bible accessible to everyone and understand the Bible to everyone. But now the illiteracy rate among the lower class people is too high, and many people use different written words. Education is a long-term matter, and it is impossible to teach all people to learn calligraphy overnight. Then translation can solve a small part of the problem. After translation, more people outside the church and nobility can understand the Bible. Some of these people will spread it among the people, and word of mouth can reduce the power of the church. . Rhine then added fuel to the flames at the right time.
With this plan in mind, Laing worked hard every day. The Palatinate family is currently financially strapped, and the church has a date for eating meat. The food in the castle is quite average. Just getting a balanced diet is already a headache for Rhine, let alone eating enough.
Seeing him losing weight at a speed visible to the naked eye, the system couldn't help but advise: "Why don't you take a day off first? The progress can't be completed in one day."
Rhine sighed and said, "Okay, let's relax and read fortunes today."
System: What are you talking about? ?
Rhine said that fortune-telling was just talk. He came to his fixed position in the square as usual, set up a clip, and posted a piece of white paper, which read: "According to divination, people with the following names in recent days are best suited to study mathematics: Hui Gens, Gauss, Leibniz, Dirichlet.”
After he finished writing, he was happy for a while, but soon he sighed quietly because no one could understand his point of laughter.
The Earl of Rhine, a regular vendor, is very popular because the questions he asks are fresh and interesting. Of course, there is another very important reason. Students feel that when discussing problems here in Rhine, their ideas flow smoothly and they can be solved quickly, which is better than staying in the school building. It's much better to agonize on your own.
Thomas became a loyal fan of the Count. He had been waiting aside before Rhine arrived, and was currently looking at the whiteboard in a daze.
Since the string vibration equation, Rhine has raised several questions about partial differential equations, including the famous solitary wave problem. This is a phenomenon visible to the naked eye. Thomas went to the dock to observe it for several days, and then Coupled with the discussion with everyone in Rhine, he has already established his own set of standards regarding partial differential equations in his mind. Thomas originally wanted to talk about it in today's discussion, but seeing that Rhine seemed to be talking about astronomical divination today, he held it back with some disappointment.
Thomas looked at the content on the whiteboard and was a little stunned. He couldn't help but ask Rhine: "Your Majesty, is today's content about divination? Can't people without these names achieve success in mathematics?" "
When Rhine looked at the young man's eyes, he thought that something was wrong. He was like the kind of fortune teller who talked nonsense and affected other people's mentality.
Rhine said with a serious face: "Today's content is not about divination. The content on the board is written casually. I hope you can stop being superstitious about divination."
Thomas choked.
