"How are you going to develop that science?" Li Er asked with concern.
Li Er didn't care about the divine weapons that Qin Mo had mentioned. Even if there was a weapon like a horseshoe in front of him, it wouldn't move him too much, because the Tang army was invincible.
However, the increase in grain production by five times, from 200 catties to 1,000 catties, tempted him.
Just as Qin Mo had said, when the commoners were full, who would have the time to rebel?
"I plan to establish an academy called the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The Chinese Academy of Sciences would teach the world about science, including agriculture, industry, mathematics, physics, chemistry, medicine, astronomy, and geography.”
Li Er didn't know what physics and chemistry were, but it didn't stop him from knowing how awesome science was.
"How many people can an academy teach?”
"Your Majesty, this will be the seed of the Great Tang's scientific development. As long as it is patiently watered, it will one day grow into a towering tree. The Great Tang did not have enough food to eat, but science could increase production. If there were not enough clothes to wear, there was science to increase the production of weaving. If swords and sabers are not good, science will improve the weapons of the Tang army."
Qin Mo began his passionate speech, making Li Er's blood boil.
"Good! Go ahead and do it. I'll support you.”
Qin Mo didn't stand on ceremony with him." I need a piece of land as the base of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.”
"Correct!"
Li Er was very generous.
"Money."
Before he could finish, Li Er said awkwardly,"This." The Imperial Court has no money."
Qin Mo rolled his eyes." Qian Chen will pay for it himself. Now, Your Majesty, you know why ice cream is so expensive."”
Li Er couldn't help but be moved." Such a sacrifice is really giving up the family for the country.”
Qin Mo stood up and said passionately," The wind is strong, sweeping across thousands of miles. The place where the iron tower steps is China. I want our nation to stand at the top of the world forever. I want to change the cycle of prosperity and decline of this nation. I want this nation to prosper forever.”
"Good!"
Li Er could not help but slam the table. Li Chengqian and Zhangsun Chong also felt their blood boiling as they listened.
The little loli Li Lizhi looked at Qin Mo with admiration.
Therefore, three days later, an inconspicuous plaque hung in front of King Qin's residence-Tang Academy of Sciences.
Why was Li Er so fast? Because Qin Mo had given him a book on rice planting techniques the next day.
Of course, Qin Mo found this book online and printed it out. As for where this book came from, Qin Mo explained that it was a gift from Haike.
The mention of rice planting techniques made Li Er ecstatic.
Therefore, he quickly got things done and ordered Qin Mo to immediately carry out rice hybrid experiments at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He also ordered Qin Mo to carry out research and development of fertilizers, seed selection and breeding, fertilizers, and other ready-made technologies for testing.
He also gave Qin Mo a piece of Imperial Manor as an experimental plot.
Everyone was curious about the signboard that King Qin's Mansion had put up. However, no one knew what kind of powerful yamen the Chinese Academy of Sciences was that they could actually use King Qin's Mansion as a yamen.
Hence, the commoners discussed animatedly, and even the officials could not help but be curious.
King Qin's Residence was the residence of Li Er before he became the emperor. I believe many people know what this means.
Li Er could even bring out King Qin's Mansion, which showed how much importance he placed on science.
Or rather, he was moved by Qin Mo's description of being a monarch for ten thousand generations.
However, when the common people and officials learned that this place was an academy that nurtured talents in mathematics, agriculture, industry, medicine, astronomy, and geography, and not a yamen, their interest was greatly reduced.
Because these professions were useless, even those aristocratic families scoffed at them. Craftsman was a cheap profession, and the Academy that trained craftsmen was not worth mentioning. As for agriculture, did they have to learn to farm? Li Er had given Qin Mo's Mansion to Qin Mo. It was simply nonsense.
Although divine artifacts like the horseshoe and the curved shaft plow had appeared in the world, the craftsman had not been valued because Qin Mo had created these two things.
However, their contempt was exactly what Qin Mo needed.
Before he could accumulate enough power, he had to make a fortune in silence. If those aristocratic families knew that Qin Mo might subvert the Confucian school's ruling position, they would probably launch a terrifying attack on him. At that time, even Li Er would not be able to protect him.
However, this created a problem. The Chinese Academy of Sciences might not be able to recruit students. Those noble families would not send their children here. Qin Mo had expected this possibility, but he did not care.
When science revealed its power, those people would naturally break their heads to get in.
"This is the beginning of my career. This nation will be very different from today on.”
Qin Mo stood in front of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, looking very heroic.
Of course, he was still a single commander. The Chinese Academy of Sciences did not have any teachers or students.
Therefore, Li Er arranged for Qin Mo to be a Confucian teacher. Kong Yingda, Lu Deming, and other Confucian scholars were sent to the Chinese Academy of Sciences as students.
As a student, he naturally learned Pinyin from Qin Mo.
This was the first batch of students from the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
As for the other teachers, Li Er let Qin Mo look for them himself. Qin Mo wanted to curse at Li Er for not doing anything.
