The ministers looked at Fang Zheng with sullen eyebrows, and no one wanted to talk anymore.
This guy's fighting ability is extraordinary, and he doesn't follow routines.
If you curse a few curse words, where will you save your face?
Fang Zhengyi continued: "Your Majesty, science is not limited to work as your colleagues imagine, but is all-encompassing and involves a wide range of things."
"Although the Ministry of Industry currently has skilled craftsmen, it seems to Yichen that it is far from enough."
"Ordinary craftsmen rely on family inheritance, and the teaching of skills is completely a master-apprentice system. The master hides his head and shows his tail only when he is old and is willing to teach this trick. After the apprentice has learned something, he will naturally imitate it. How many techniques have been passed away, and it is even more difficult to organize them on a large scale!”
"In this case, I suggest that we establish a separate Royal Academy of Sciences! Start with a new set of logic, teach from the bottom, and break the rules! Otherwise, if we continue to stick to the old customs, it will be difficult for our craftsmanship in Dajing to make a big breakthrough."
"Moreover, old craftsmen usually have rigid ideas. Whenever new people create new things, they directly accuse them of playing tricks and not doing their job properly."
"Just like me, although I am young, I have made some small achievements. But why do we, my colleagues, turn a blind eye? It's just that I am old, have stubborn ideas, and feel ashamed inside, so I can't see my heroic appearance. . So he was envious, jealous, and hateful, and finally couldn't help but launch brutal and inhumane personal attacks on me."
? ? ? !
The ministers' faces turned green.
Blanch! You are young! You are amazing!
What the hell are you talking about here? Even if you attack others, you still need to praise yourself! Who has any objections to your meritorious service?
Add drama to yourself!
Emperor Jing covered his forehead and fell speechless.
I just thought he was going to get excited, and he really got excited!
Although most of it is bullshit, the things produced by Taoyuan County can already illustrate some problems.
It can be seen that Fang Zhengyi's method is indeed skillful and not unreasonable.
But on the other hand, the Ministry of Industry has gathered the world's top craftsmen, so there is no reason why it cannot beat Taoyuan County.
The reason why the Ministry of Industry strongly opposes it is that it is still afraid of decentralization.
Emperor Jing was also happy to let them quarrel and make a decision after the quarrel.
After thinking about it, he looked at Jiang Liang, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and said, "Qing Jiang, what do you think about the establishment of the Royal Academy of Sciences?"
Jiang Liang coughed twice: "Back to Your Majesty, I think this is not necessary. Since there is already a Ministry of Industry, why do we need to build any more science academies and colleges?"
"If we recruit talents from the private sector and train them again, the cost is unknown. Since there are countless skilled craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry, why do we need to do this?"
"As for the shortcomings of the master-apprentice system that Mr. Fang just mentioned, it is a joke. The master-apprentice system has been passed down for thousands of years and has been in place since ancient times. Only when the apprentice treats the master like a father can the master teach with all his heart. Even if he hides a half-move, it is just for testing. If the apprentice's character is bad, how can he teach it to his successor? This is in accordance with the laws of nature."
"Going further, even if Mr. Fang plans to build a science academy and a college, how can he ensure that the master will not hide his clumsiness?"
"That's right, that's right! What Mr. Jiang said makes sense, and I agree with you." There was a sound of approval.
Xu Wenshu was overjoyed. It seemed that Jiang was still old and hot. Wouldn't the money be saved?
Not long after he was happy, Jiang Liang changed the topic: "But what Mr. Fang just said is not unreasonable."
"In the past few years, the national treasury has been tight, the recruitment of craftsmen has been poor, and there is a lack of projects. The cost of building the Academy of Sciences is not as good as asking the Ministry of Industry to recruit more craftsmen, and then establishing a separate Department of Firearms. I will definitely give your Majesty a satisfactory answer."
Xu Wenshu's face turned pale.
Do you want it too? However, in comparison, the cost of the Ministry of Industry sounds smaller.
That Fang Zhengyi is not a money saver!
Countless thoughts quickly passed through his mind. Xu Wenshu smiled bitterly and said, "I think what Mr. Jiang said is reasonable. It is better to directly order the Ministry of Industry to build the Firearms Department. After all, the foundation is there, and the money can be used more efficiently."
Fang Zheng watched the two of them singing with cold eyes. After Xu Wenshu finished speaking, he immediately said: "Master Xu, why are you like this!"
"I treated you to several meals a while ago, and you accepted generous gifts from me. Is it appropriate to just go off on me like this?"
The ministers were shocked and looked at Xu Wenshu!
What? Can this be said? And he said it in front of His Majesty.
Fang Zhengyi’s courage is truly incredible!
Xu Wenshu's legs became weak and he said in a trembling voice: "Master Fang, we have had a few meals. But don't talk nonsense. When did I receive such a generous gift from you?"
"Pocket watch."
Good guy, are you waiting here?
The ministers took a deep breath!
I couldn't help but touch the pocket watch in my arms, and I felt a little hot.
The scene is becoming more and more out of control.
Emperor Jing frowned and knocked on the imperial desk: "Don't make trouble! Just say it properly. How can you be so frizzy and irritable all day long?"
Fang Zheng looked calm and said: "Ahem! It's your Majesty. I just want to say that what Mr. Jiang said is not a problem. I have also encountered it in Taoyuan County. What are those old craftsmen afraid of? It's nothing more than myself. The guy who leaked every move to prevent himself from being robbed of his meal."
"As long as we think of a way to make them feel at ease, we can naturally teach them. Taoyuan County has some experience in this regard."
"Of course, apprenticeships are better than apprenticeships, but having only apprenticeships is probably not good for development!"
"It's a joke, Mr. Fang, the apprenticeship system is passed down from generation to generation, even if it is passed on by saints. If it is not good for development, how can I get this prosperous world? Could it be that Mr. Fang thinks that the saints are also wrong!" A shout came from the corner. .
Fang Zheng's face darkened: "Bold! This is slander! You guys, he is slandering the saint! Who told you to stand up just now!"
The person who just spoke trembled all over and huddled in the corner, daring not to move.
Seeing that no one pressed for more, Fang Zhengyi said coldly: "The sage said that there is no distinction between people who are taught. What I am doing is to allow most people to have the opportunity to get closer to the truth of knowledge. What is wrong with that?"
Jiang Liang had a faint smile on his face: "Master Fang, I think we don't need to argue with each other. These are meaningless things."
"The other five ministries have no objections to the Academy of Construction Sciences, but this is a matter within the Ministry of Construction, and I cannot ignore it."
"If Mr. Fang thinks that Taoyuan County's existing methods can be better, and you just said to pull them out, then let's compare with the Ministry of Industry to see who has trained stronger craftsmen and whose creations are better. "
"If Mr. Fang wins, then I have no objection at all. What do you think of Your Majesty?"
Emperor Jing suddenly felt that things were interesting, and smiled and said: "I have no objection, then you can show me the real thing. What do you think, Fang Qing? Don't force it too hard, the Ministry of Industry has a deep foundation after all."
Fang Zheng stared at Jiang Liang and suddenly smiled.
Old guy, if you hit the muzzle yourself, you can't blame me!
"I don't get what I asked for!"
