"It will be of great use. You will know it when the time comes." Li Zhao didn't say much and sent Ah Chao away.
Ah Chao muttered, looking at the drawing and shaking his head. He had never seen such a thing before. What on earth was it? What use can it be? The two circles on the left and right must be connected with iron. The iron must be set to be bendable, with many gaps in the middle.
"The young master's ideas are all kinds of strange and difficult to figure out!"
He didn't dare to ask any more questions and walked away.
After the explanation, Li Zhao was not idle. After giving lessons to students from two schools, he came up with an idea.
The Qin Dynasty banned and suppressed business, and there were fewer restrictions on development in all aspects. I am afraid that some handicraft workshops, such as textile workshops, will emerge soon, but these are very primitive. It is difficult to use this to make people rich, so we must Technological innovation, innovation alone is the source of development.
And technological innovation is indispensable for the establishment of schools.
Nowadays, many schools have emerged in Xianyang, but these schools are mainly focused on law and Confucianism, which are relatively single. Although these things can promote the development of Da Qin, they are very limited. They only improve ideological consciousness and are naturally insufficient for practical ability.
And technological innovation often relies on hands-on ability.
Most people in this world don't have the awareness to take action yet. If you want them all to take action, you only need to start in school.
"It seems that the academy must face everyone in order to most effectively promote the development of Da Qin."
Li Zhao muttered to himself and went to find his uncle. He wanted to open another school, a science and technology school.
The steam engine that the Mohists are researching is technology, bicycles also have technology content, and hydropower stations are even more so. Without the emergence of schools, these things are destined to hinder development.
Therefore, talent is the key to development.
"Uncle, please expand the school." Li Zhao found Li Jinong and expressed his thoughts.
During this time, Li Jinong was busy expanding the workshop, and he was so busy that his chest was pressed against his back. Li Zhao was a little unhappy when he was disturbed like this. Of course, another reason was that this nephew was a prodigal, and tens of millions of his family's wealth was squandered. , He was holding his breath in his heart as he came to squander it now.
If he were his biological father, he would probably have to kick him out.
But he still couldn't hide his reluctance.
"There are only these people in two schools, why do you want to expand?"
Li Zhao noticed the change in his uncle's expression, smiled awkwardly, and said from another angle: "Don't you want to make money, uncle?"
As soon as he heard about making money, his uncle's face immediately changed. He started to smile and asked quickly: "Expansion can also make money. Tell me how to make money?"
As for the current electrical school and manufacturing school, they were both losing money. They not only had to provide them with food and accommodation, but also had to make room for them to experiment. He had long been dissatisfied with it. Now that it was said that they could make money, he was both happy and confused.
Yes, the manufacturing school relies on hands-on work. After learning the theory, the students will always take some things to tinker with, and naturally occupy a lot of space. This is also allowed by Li Zhao. Although Li Jinong is a master, it is hard to say anything. He can only Holding your breath.
"Of course we recruit students from outside and let them pay for their studies."
Li Zhao didn't hide anything, but when Li Jinong heard this, his smiling face immediately faded away, "Isn't this a private school?" He was familiar with the recent rise of private schools.
Indeed, since the rise of private schools, many students have rushed to study, and private schools once flourished, and some celebrities even made a lot of money.
Starting a private school is definitely a way to make money.
However, since all the contents of the imperial examination came from the Second Book, all private schools have changed their teaching direction, and they tend to refuse to give up until they thoroughly study the Second Book, which naturally attracts more students to sign up to study.
But when he thought of this, Li Jinong became discouraged.
His nephew obviously wrote the second book, but he didn't seize the opportunity and let others take advantage of it. Is it a little late to start the business now?
"Very good. While others are eating porridge, we should be able to drink some rice soup."
This statement is both resentful and sarcastic.
Li Zhao heard the meaning, smiled helplessly and said, "It seems that my uncle made a mistake. What my nephew wants to do is not a "second book" study, but a science and technology school."
"Science and Technology School?" Li Jinong was confused after hearing this.
