"Are the workers ready?"
Chen Ling looked at the various industrial equipment unloaded from the freighter and asked the Minister of Industry, Lu Xiuwen.
"Your Majesty, I have gathered all the craftsmen from the Foreign Affairs Manufacturing Bureau in Zhili and Tianjin and assigned them 5000 apprentices. They will strive to learn these techniques within half a year.”Lu Xiuwen immediately replied.
"I don't ask for half a year. There's no hard and fast requirement for the length of time, but you must thoroughly understand the technique.
"We can buy these equipment now, but we must build them ourselves in the future, and we must make them stronger than the foreigners.”Chen Ling said seriously.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. I will monitor you at all times.”Lu Xiuwen immediately replied.
Chen Ling nodded. Actually, he was very assured about this.
Future experience had already proven that the Chinese were the best in the world in terms of imitation.
If he took apart your things today, he would study the technical principles tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, he would design a device that was even better than the original version.
The so-called doujinshi forced the officials to their deaths was such a situation.
The only benefit of this era was that as long as you wanted to learn, you could learn knowledge and skills.
If you buy industrial equipment, others will sell it to you.
It could be said that Chen Ling's current situation was actually much better than the future. There was no technological blockade.
However, Chen Ling really looked down on the industrial equipment at hand.
Not to mention the precision of the machine tool, the single-stage reciprocation steam engine used in the power plant was much worse than the steam turbine invented by Watt in the future.
Unfortunately, Chen Ling didn't want to learn these things. Even though he knew about the steam turbine, he didn't know how it worked.
MMP！
If I had known that I could transmigrate, I would have majored in materials science or mechanical design.
As all kinds of industrial equipment were unloaded from the ship, the heavy trucks arranged by Chen Ling began to transport these equipment to the factory area that had been prepared.
"Wait…this is a transformer?”
Chen Ling was stunned when he saw the transformer.
"Your Majesty, is there a problem with this equipment?”Lu Xiuwen asked in confusion.
"No, there's nothing wrong with this equipment, but the meaning of this equipment is different.”Chen Ling had an enigmatic smile on his face.
Lu Xiuwen was dumbfounded. He did not know what Chen Ling meant.
Transformers were very common in modern society.
Chen Ling was stunned for a moment at first. He did not expect that there would be a transformer in this era.
But the next second, he thought of a person, the person who invented the transformer.
Nikola Tesla.
This was a god!
Most importantly, this god was still alive. He seemed to have just reached middle age, which was the best age for learning.
"Get it, we must get this god.”
Chen Ling made up his mind to send someone to the M Nation to trick this god into coming to the Chinese Empire.
……
After the acceptance of the industrial equipment, Chen Ling had invited Lu Xiuwen to invite them to dinner to show his appreciation for the engineers who had come to support the industrial construction of the Chinese Empire.
Chinese cuisine was a fatal attraction to these foreigners.
Needless to say, Chen Ling had sent the royal chef.
After doing all this, Chen Ling would no longer care about the industry. He would just let the industry slowly take root and sprout on this land.
In the following period of time, Chen Ling still focused on education reform.
The Capital University was renamed Peking University, and the departments were redistributed.
Jingshi Tongwen Hall was renamed Beijing Foreign Studies University, with a major in foreign languages, Western history, and Western culture, and an international research institute.
In addition to these two universities, Chen Ling also built ten other universities.
They were Beijing University of Chemistry, Beijing Normal University, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing Jiao Tong University, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Construction, Beijing University of Economics, Beijing University of Political Science, Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Beijing University of Western Medicine, Beijing University of Law, and Beijing Agricultural University.
It could be said that these eleven universities contained the current mainstream scientific system.
As for the University of Aerospace, it was ridiculous.
In this era where everyone was still playing with kites, there was no point in creating one.
Therefore, Chen Ling only established a department at Peking University that specialized in aircraft research.
When the time was right, it wouldn't be too late to build the University of Aerospace.
In addition to the universities, Chen Ling also approved the construction of 300 primary and secondary schools within the jurisdiction of the Chinese Empire.
There was no high school because there was no need for it.
In the current knowledge system, primary school basically included junior high school, and junior high school was learning high school knowledge.
Although 300 schools were a little small, they could basically cultivate some talents.
It wasn't that Chen Ling didn't want to build more schools or even have nine years of compulsory education.
However, the problem was that it was not that Chen Ling did not have the money or that he did not want to do it. It was that he did not have a teacher.
These 300 schools were already the limit.
It was meaningless to have more because there were not enough teachers.
You couldn't possibly let primary school students learn eight-legged essays every day, right? What was the use of that?
