World Map
In the main hall.
Tidas stood on the podium and asked the royal grandchildren who were as round as little balls below.
"Who can answer my question?”
"Sir, I can answer."
"Sir, I can do it too!"
The group of little furballs cupped their hands and stood up, fighting to answer.
In their opinion, this question was much easier than memorizing.
Tidas's gaze landed on Zhu Xiongying, who was about six or seven years old. He had baby fat on his face and was wearing festive clothes. His entire body was a little round.
"I'll let you answer."
Tidas picked up the ferule on the table and pointed at Zhu Xiongying's little dumpling.
Zhu Xiong Ying cupped his hands at Tidas and replied.
"I believe that my Great Ming is vast and has already occupied eighty to ninety percent of the world.
And the small countries around our Great Ming are only the size of a palm. They can't compare to our Great Ming at all.”
He clearly looked like a little dumpling and had a tender voice, but he pretended to be an old scholar. When he spoke, he even shook his head, which was very cute and interesting.
Tidas nodded.
"Sit down."
"Is there anyone else who wants to answer?"
His gaze fell on the other little furballs.
Zhu Yunwen and the other kids raised their hands.
Tidas pointed at Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunwen said,
"I agree with Brother Xiong Ying.”
"Father once told me that our Great Ming is the most powerful country in the world.”
"Those small countries need to pay tribute to our Great Ming.”
"Moreover, the territories of those small foreign countries are extremely small and can't compare to our Great Ming at all.”
Tidas raised his eyebrows and looked around at all the little furballs on the seats.
"Does anyone else have any other opinions?”
However, this group of imperial grandchildren all agreed with Zhu Xiongying and the others.
They think that the Ming Dynasty has a vast territory.
In their view, the Great Ming occupied most of the world, and the other small countries only occupied a small part.
Zhu Gaochi sensed Tidas's dissatisfaction and couldn't help but stand up with cupped hands and ask,
"Sir, did we say something wrong?”
The little furballs all looked confused.
They weren't wrong.
Although the other teachers had not taught them, they had heard a little about their parents when they talked about Big Ming, so they thought they were right.
In their eyes, Great Ming was the most powerful and powerful country in the world, occupying eighty to ninety percent of the world's land.
The rest of the countries were small foreign countries.
Surround Da Ming.
It was like the stars surrounding the moon.
Tidas shook his head and said,
"Although the Great Ming Empire is vast, your views are all wrong.”
"Wrong?"
The group of little balls 'childish and surprised voices rose and fell.
"How could we be wrong?"
"Father and the others all said so.”
"Our Great Ming has the most territory in the world and the most people in the world.”
"I can tell you very clearly that Great Ming's territory is not even one-tenth of the world. The vastness of the world is beyond your imagination.”
Tidas said.
Zhu Xiongying and the other little furballs were shocked by Tidas's words.
Great Ming's territory was not even one-tenth of the world?
This--
How was this possible?
This was completely different from what the other adults had told them.
Those teachers in the past also said that their Big Ming was the strongest.
The other small countries were just foreign countries.
They needed their Great Ming to pay tribute and submit.
He couldn't compare to their Big Ming at all.
Therefore, they believed that Ming was the most powerful country in the world with the largest territory.
Who would have thought?
Tidas said that the Great Ming's territory did not even have one-tenth of the world.
This group of little furballs was unconvinced.
"Although you are a teacher, you can't speak nonsense.”
Zhu Xiongying retorted.
The other little furballs also started chattering.
"That's right, that's right, Sir. You have no proof and no evidence. How can our Big Ming be as small as you say?
Father, teacher, they all said that our Great Ming territory is vast.”
"Our Big Ming is the biggest!"
"He's the strongest!"
"The other small countries are just so-so!!”
..............
Zhu Xiong Ying and the other little furballs were like chirping birds waiting to be fed. The entire classroom was filled with the sound wave attacks of these little furballs.
Tidas was expressionless as he knocked on the table with his ferule.
It made a sound.
Bang bang!
" Silence!!"
The group of little furballs stared at the ferule, and the shadow brought by the ferule suddenly appeared.
They immediately fell silent.
Tidas's ears instantly relaxed.
He thought,"
This group of brats, that sound wave attack was really amazing.
"Sir, you said that the world is vast and our Great Ming only occupies one-tenth of it. Then do you know what the world really looks like?”
Zhu Yunwen stood up, her chubby face full of intelligence.
"Of course I know, and this is the first lesson I'm going to teach you.”
"Now, I will draw the appearance of the world.”
Tidas hung a huge piece of white paper that he had prepared long ago on the wall. He dipped a brush in pitch-black ink and drew it.
The outline of the world was outlined bit by bit by Tidas.
Zhu Xiongying and the other little furballs looked at the irregular outline on the white paper in confusion.
"What is this?"
"It looks like a sesame seed cake!"
"Sesame seed cake your head. Sir said that he was drawing a map of the world.”
"A map of the world. So abstract!"
"Is every small lump a small country?”
"So many countries!"
Zhu Xiongying and the other little furballs watched as Tidas outlined the outline of the world and marked it with words.
" Pacific Ocean, Yindu Ocean, Atlantic Ocean."
"Beautiful. Asia Continent?"
Zhu Xiongying and the other little furballs looked at the things Tidas had marked, and their faces became even more confused.
When Tidas stopped.
The group of little furballs couldn't wait to ask.
"Sir, sir!"
"What do you mean by the Pacific Ocean and the Yin Du Ocean?”
"Beautiful. Asia Continent, what is it?"
"Where is our Great Ming?"
"Why didn't Teacher mark our Great Ming?”
Tidas had drawn a rough map of this era. It was not very detailed. He stretched out his hand to silence the chattering little furballs. Then, he pointed at the simple map hanging on the wall and introduced it.
"This is our Big Ming.”
He used a brush to write the two words "Da Ming" on Da Ming's location.
The little furballs were instantly shocked.
"This is our Big Ming?"
"But why is it so small?"
"This world has four oceans and five continents. The four oceans refer to the Pacific Ocean, the Yindu Ocean, the Arctic Ocean, and the Atlantic Ocean. These are the sea areas, and the five continents refer to the five plates of the world, namely Asia. Continent, America, Oceania, and Africa.”
"Our Big Ming is in the Asian sector.”
"This is the Asian plate."
"And this is our Big Ming.”
Tidas explained.
He pointed out the four oceans and five continents on the map.
The little furballs opened their mouths wide, their clear and foolish eyes filled with shock.
The world was so big?
Big Ming is just the tip of the iceberg!？
This completely overturned their understanding.
