851. Technician School

Li Shimin asked the technicians of the military weapon supervisor to quickly produce cannons, and they must make the use of cannons popularized by the entire army, so that they can increase their combat effectiveness several times out of thin air. The technicians immediately felt a lot of complaints because their technicians were very small. Because their military weapon supervisors had limited technicians, there were relatively few technicians who could produce cannons. After all, there were very few people who made cannon models and polished the cannon bore. This was two key steps, and without advanced technicians could not do it. At present, the military weapon supervisors could only do this, but there were only a dozen people. Therefore, the officials of the military weapon supervisors began to complain to Jing Wen that the number of these technicians could not be increased in a short period of time.

"It is indeed difficult to increase the number of technicians. However, in the long run, we still need to increase the number of technicians. So why don't we open a technician school?" Jing Wen asked.

"Technician school? What is this for?" asked a technician.

Jing Wen immediately explained: "The technician school is actually a specialized in training technicians. The people here enter the technician school to learn the work of carpenters, blacksmiths and various craftsmen. In this way, we can have many different types of technicians. Moreover, in this way, we can also let many people learn a skill, so that many people can join the worker team. In the future, we can also use more and more craftsmen, and then through the force of the craftsman population, and then generate more technicians!"

Jingwen actually had this idea for a long time. Jingwen had always wanted to train some talents in science and engineering. However, Jingwen had never had a clue, but the appearance of these technicians immediately made Jingwen find the key to open the door to science and engineering research. If Jingwen said what Jingwen now asked everyone to study physics and chemistry, I'm afraid no one would understand it. Moreover, Jingwen did not have so many theories for research. Even if Jingwen took out the things in his later middle schools, these ancient people would not understand what they mean.

Although many primary and secondary school students in later generations understood something. In ancient times, countless people did not understand it. Even a primary school student had a much higher knowledge reserve than that of ancient experts. This is the accumulation of the times, and it is not so easy to get around. Even if Jingwen opens a course in physics and chemistry, ancient people did not understand it! Therefore, everything must be started from the beginning so that we can study it slowly. Even if the physics and chemistry courses that are hoped, can we find some basic clues through long-term experiments? Therefore, Jingwen can only follow the old path of Westerners and then explore some rules through long-term experiments. As for the future, it can develop slowly.

The first thing is to start from the technician school, because the technician school has many practical things. In ancient times, many Taoist priests, many carpenters and blacksmiths, they actually used their physical and chemical knowledge to work, but they all rely on experience to do it, not experimenting for research. They rarely communicate with each other, so their results are not known to the outside world. Jing Wen wanted to train technicians through this technician school and then let them further study.

As for the next step, this technician school will also train various craftsmen courses for the general public. In the future, all kinds of people can come here to learn some ways to make a living. Carpenters, blacksmiths, stonemasons, etc. can come to learn a large number of workers. In the future, farmers who have lost their land can also learn a skill through this technician school, so that they will not starve to death. This is also a way to divert employment pressure and can also increase the proportion of workers.

In fact, for Jing Wen, who was truly living in ancient times, Jing Wen knew that in ancient times, it was not absolutely discriminatory in science. But the situation in ancient times caused the science that could not develop too much, because the demand in ancient times was not large. In ancient times, the literacy rate of the people was extremely low. In this case, the first thing needed was to popularize culture. In popularizing culture, science could not be compared with liberal arts at all. Therefore, when popularizing culture is the first priority, liberal arts was of course absolutely valued. Discrimination against science is not necessarily a malicious discrimination by ancient literati, but there were too few things used in science in ancient times, and even the people did not have too high output in science. For example, science can produce many industrial products, but ancient people cannot use it at all, so you will naturally be in vain. So all this is determined based on social needs. In ancient China, there was very little demand for science, or even almost no, so many people discriminated against science.

Unless industrial production requires a lot of science knowledge and the proportion of workers to the population reaches a certain level, people will begin to pay attention to science knowledge. For example, in the late dynasty, China's industrial survival ability was greatly improved, so some people began to study Western physics and chemical knowledge, because this is also the reason why society needs it. The more famous are Song Yingxing, Sun Yuanhua, and some Confucian scholars also began to study relevant knowledge. This is entirely because the entire society needs it, so they began to break the ice of thinking.

As for this technician school, Jing Wen intends to use it to train workers. This will give future farmers who have lost their land a way out. At that time, the proportion of workers in the population increased a lot, so the status of workers will account for a large proportion. In the future, through industry, mutual promotion of science knowledge can be carried out, so that science research can be developed smoothly. This is actually a mutual promotion, promoting the development of science through social needs, and the theoretical research of science knowledge will further stimulate industrial development, which will promote each other.

"Sir, who will be the technician school asks to be a guru?" a technician immediately asked.

Jing Wen immediately said: "You technicians can all be gentlemen and teach their own skills to the people. Isn't this possible? Your skills are all good and you can fully comply with the responsibilities of teachers."
