The Path of the Sage

Chapter 2396: Lure the Workers' Palace

Views:

After bidding farewell to Yi Zhishi, Fang Yun first went to the Medical Hall, summoned the elders to discuss matters tomorrow, and then went to the Engineering Hall.

Ordinary clerks in the Gongdian might not be able to guess Fang Yun’s intention, but the seven elders in the Gongdian knew it best.

Fang Yun came out of the Holy Burial Valley and entered the Work Hall first. What signal was this

Fang Yun is coming to send treasures to Gongdian!

Of course Fang Yun would put forward conditions, but compared with the treasures in the Holy Burial Valley, Fang Yun’s conditions were nothing!

These days, all the high-level human beings more or less know one thing: what Fang Yun alone has gained in the Sacred Burial Valley exceeds that of all other human beings, and may even exceed the total of all the races that have entered the Sacred Burial Valley!

Although many people are skeptical about this statement, even if only half of it can be believed, it is still an immeasurable wealth.

As soon as Fang Yun entered the Gongdian Hall, the seven elders directly closed the hall door, leaving only the seven of them and Fang Yun.

Before closing the door, the seven ministers sat on seven chairs deep in the hall with serious faces, like emperors in the Golden Palace. Even though Fang Yun was a virtual saint, the seven of them did not stand up to greet him.

Because, on such a solemn occasion, the seven of them represented the entire Gong Hall, the Gong family and the Mohist school, and part of the Holy Court. Except for the half-saints, they would never go down to greet anyone.

However, the moment the main door of the hall closed, the seven elders were like nimble monkeys, all rushing to Fang Yun at the fastest speed, even competing secretly, wanting to squeeze close to Fang Yun, but not wanting to be rude, and each one was more scheming than the other.

Under the illumination of the bright night pearls, the seven ministers were all smiling.

"Fang Xusheng, did you sleep well last night?"

"Fang Xusheng, do you still remember me, Xiang Liyuan? Back then, you had a conflict with the Lei family and asked Gongdian to judge. I firmly stood on your side."

"Fang Xusheng, we Mo family members have supported you openly and secretly. You have made such a big success in Ning'an City, and our Mo family has suffered great losses, but we have never caused you any trouble."

"Fang Xusheng..."

Fang Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. These seven people didn't look like respected scholars at all. Instead, they looked like people soliciting customers in a brothel.

Fang Yun coughed lightly and said, "Everyone, let's talk about business first."

"Tell me, tell me..."

The seven old men said in unison.

Fang Yun said helplessly: "Forget it, then I will speak directly. First, I hope that the Ministry of Industry will support me in establishing a specialized college in Jingguo, which can also be called the separate teaching method. In the college, of course, we must study popular subjects such as Confucianism and arithmetic, but the focus will be on the study of engineers, and the study of engineers must be subdivided according to my method."

The seven of them were all old foxes and began to think.

The matter of education is a red line in the Shengyuan Continent. If you are not careful, you will offend the aristocratic families or even the living semi-saints. The interests involved are so huge that it is unimaginable.

If it was just an ordinary academy, they would definitely agree, but Fang Yun's intention was very clear, which was to establish a large-scale academy for workers.

Fang Yun was not in a hurry. In fact, he had planned to open a college that would become very popular in later generations a long time ago.

Moreover, Fang Yun believed that if he did not take action, the human race would naturally carry out similar secondary and higher education when the time came.

In fact, in the Song Dynasty of the ancient Chinese country, Hu Yuan, a famous Confucian scholar, created the Suhu teaching method, which is the method of separate teaching. While carrying out education on the classics, he also carried out education on current affairs, established the Zhishi Zhai, and offered subjects such as military affairs, farming, astronomy, and mathematics. It is a milestone in the history of education.

Fang Yun used the Suhu teaching method as a reference, integrated the higher education of later generations, and supplemented it with the experience of the Shengyuan Continent, and prepared to open various basic technical colleges. As for the top universities, Fang Yun did not consider it, as that required long-term accumulation.

In other words, the Holy Academy itself is the top institution of higher learning for the human race.

Fang Yun smiled and said, "Why? The time for Gongdian to expand its influence and holy way and gain the power of education is right before your eyes. Why are you hesitating?"

"what do you mean… "

"Since it is a technical college, it is naturally not constrained by the Palace of Rites. At most, the Palace of Rites will be given a nominal position in the college to be responsible for the school's style and discipline."

"Although this is a good idea, it is somewhat difficult to handle." said an elder.

The other great scholars nodded immediately.

How could Fang Yun not know what they were thinking, but he pretended not to know and said, "In my spare time in the Burial Valley, Fang once wrote a very basic book called "History of Engineering", which briefly describes the development of the human race and introduces some experience and knowledge of other races in the Ten Thousand Worlds to roughly classify engineering. This book can be used as a textbook in the future Engineering Academy."

As Fang Yun spoke, he took out the "History of Engineering" which he had almost finished writing.

The reading ability of the seven great scholars far exceeded that of a quick glance. They could read a page at a glance and finish the book very quickly.

The seven of them were so surprised that they were speechless. Fang Yun's concepts of optics, mechanics, etc. completely overwhelmed their inherent knowledge system.

If ordinary workers saw these, they would definitely think they were unorthodox and sneer at them, but as great scholars, they could quickly understand this knowledge and judge whether it was effective.

However, Fang Yun's book does not discuss engineering in too much detail. It mainly provides directions and does not involve anything that would shake the foundation of the engineering profession.

After a brief moment of daze, the seven great scholars communicated secretly, and then began to ask Fang Yun questions, asking Fang Yun to explain the relevant concepts.

Fang Yun answered them one by one.

If the great scholar asked Fang Yun how he knew that, Fang Yun would either say that he had figured it out on his own, or that it came from an alien race. He would even say very calmly that he had seen some magical pictures in the Sacred Burial Valley, and that those pictures should have recorded the power and wisdom of the great figures in ancient times, as if he had learned something from them.

The Holy Burial Valley was too mysterious, and these great scholars had no doubts at all. They did not believe that Fang Yun could create these concepts.

After explaining the whole book, Fang Yun smiled and said, "Well, let's find an open place first. I will show you a few items. I believe the great scholar from the Burial Valley has revealed some of them."

The seven ministers immediately entered the exclusive space of the Holy Academy's Work Hall with Fang Yun, which was part of Confucius' literary world.

When Fang Yun took out a dragon fire mechanism and a thunder dragon mechanism, the seven elders looked as if they had been waiting for a long time. They rushed over like tigers pouncing on their food, took out the sacred craftsman's item Lu Ban ruler and other items, and began to study the two mechanisms.

Just a quarter of an hour later, Fang Yun said calmly: "Everyone, these two mechanisms are just trivial matters. Let's talk about business first. For example, I heard that your workshop is in short supply of bodies at the level of killing demon kings and great demon kings? I have some here."

After Fang Yun finished speaking, he waved his hand and a clear light spread. A series of undulating mountains appeared in front of the seven elders. Each mountain was hundreds of feet high. The precious holy weapons in the Dragon Soul battlefield were piled together like garbage.

The seven ministers were like starving beasts, totally disregarding etiquette, and pounced forward, shouting in confusion.

“Holy Mind Weapons! They are all Holy Mind Weapons! Once they are smelted into giant mechanical crossbows, those below the Emperor can only serve as targets!”

“Confucius is above, Mozi is above, I… I can’t speak anymore…” Xiang Liyuan’s mouth was trembling.
