Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1384, the impact of Confucian scholars
"How to calculate the mass of the Earth?"

Zhu Houzhao and Ren Siheng couldn't help raising their eyebrows when they heard Gao Lu's words while he was in deep thought.

The earth is so huge, and people live on the earth. Compared with the huge people on earth, people are really insignificant.

Wanting to calculate the mass of the earth is a bit of a fantasy.

But as a researcher, everything is possible, and the mass of the earth is also within the scope of research and calculation.

"Ahem, better than me."

Then Zhu Houzhao touched his nose in admiration.

Dare to think about calculating the mass of the earth, Zhu Houzhao feels that there is still a big gap between him and him. At least in Zhu Houzhao's view, he has no clue how to calculate the mass of the earth.

This is like ants trying to calculate the mass of the Himalayas, which sounds unbelievable.

"Gravity ~"

"Gravity is related to mass~"

"If you really tell him this, then many astronomical phenomena can be explained clearly."

Ren Siheng pondered carefully, and after a long time, he nodded slightly in agreement.

This is a relatively reasonable explanation and conjecture. Living on the huge sphere of the earth, people not only cannot fall, but also it is very, very difficult to jump high. There is a powerful force in the invisible. binds everything on earth.

"Let people publish this Gao Lu's universal gravitation. I believe that many people will be inspired, and more people will study it by then."

Liu Jin on the side looked at Gao Lu who was deep in thought again, smiled and gave orders to his subordinates.

Gravity is an extremely important milestone in physics. Once gravity is studied and the law of gravity is gradually summarized, it can be said to be of epoch-making significance for the fields of physics and astronomy.

So Liu Jin thinks it is still necessary to let more people know about this thing, so as to attract more geniuses to study it, and then the law of universal gravitation can come out earlier.

As for things like calculating the mass of the earth, Liu Jin remembers that Cavendish used two shot puts to calculate the mass and density of the earth in history. As for how to do it, the nine-year compulsory education of later generations did not pay much attention to this.

Forget it, let these smart people study it slowly.

It is estimated that even after the law of universal gravitation is researched, it will take some years before someone can figure out a way to calculate the earth, and then calculate the mass of the earth.

"Let's go, let's go~"

Liu Jin shook his head slightly, ready to learn more about the School of Engineering Machinery and get busy with building a bicycle factory.

Ordinary people, making money is the most important thing, and finding ways to make more money is the kingly way.

Once the bicycle is produced, it will definitely become popular quickly, and then it will definitely be sold at a high price, and it will make a lot of money.

The key is to accumulate experience in the production of bicycles. After the invention of the internal combustion engine, you can upgrade to make motorcycles, cars, etc., which are all big profitable businesses.

"This Gao Lu is really good. No wonder he was able to come up with calculus. I am much worse than him in the field of mathematics. I didn't expect him to be so good in the fields of physics and astronomy."

As he walked towards the school gate, Zhu Houzhao kept sighing.

This young man has never been easy to convince others, after all he is a genius himself.

But today in front of Gao Lu, he had to express his admiration. Experts can tell the gap between each other at a glance. Just now, just watching Gao Lu write and draw on the manuscript paper, he can tell that Gao Lu's mathematics level It has reached a very high level.

"His Highness is also very powerful. In the field of electromagnetics and machinery, His Highness is also the most powerful."

Ren Siheng said with a smile.

"That's also~"

"Hmph, when I make a major breakthrough in the electromagnetic field, I want to let the world know how powerful I am."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Houzhao immediately raised his tail.

"New learning and forgetting the ancestors ~ must be strictly prohibited ~"

"The new learning is full of ingenious tricks. They are really third-rate things. They should all be shut down."

"Down with the new learning~ restore my Confucianism!"

"The prevalence of new learning and the decline of Confucianism will inevitably cause turmoil in the country and the country~"

"The new learning is opportunistic, does not respect Confucius and Mencius, and does not know how to educate, it really ruins my Chinese clothes!"

"..."

Just as they arrived at the school gate, they were attracted by a commotion, and immediately looked over in unison.

I saw that at the gate of the School of Mechanical Engineering, there were hundreds of Confucian students wearing long robes and square scarves, and some of them were holding fans in their hands pretending to be elegant.

These Confucian scholars blocked the school gate, constantly shouting various slogans, and at the same time seemed extremely angry, wanting to rush into the School of Mechanical Engineering.

"Stop them, stop them~"

The gatekeeper at the gate of the School of Mechanical Engineering was sweating profusely and locked the gate firmly, but each of these Confucian scholars kept shaking the gate, trying to rush in, which made the gatekeeper extremely anxious. Informing the management of the school, on the one hand, it was also shouting at the students of the School of Mechanical Engineering at the school gate.

"There's trouble again~"

Seeing the scene in front of him, Ren Siheng frowned immediately.

"Isn't it the first time they've come to make trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Jin asked quickly.

"Yes, it's not the first time~"

"In the past few months, these Confucian scholars have gone to various colleges to make trouble every now and then, shouting every day that our schools should be closed, and what they say is ugly."

"It is said that those of us who are new learners have forgotten our ancestors, that what we have learned is all obscene things, and that we can only know how to play tricks, and what is more, that our new learning will shake the country of the Ming Dynasty and turn the world of the Ming Dynasty upside down, etc. some type of."

"In addition, they often ask the government to close the new school, close our colleges, and even ask us who have learned the new school to be dispatched to the Golden Island or Australia."

Ren Siheng said very angrily.

Those who are new learners, firstly, they don’t compete with you traditional Confucian scholars for scientific examination achievements, and secondly, they are also committed to the principle of applying what they have learned. burden.

But what about these Confucian scholars, they are not relentless, they are full of hatred for the new learning, and they can't wait to beat the new learning to death with a stick.

"It makes no sense~"

When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately said very angrily.

"Cut, a group of useless trash who only care about others dare to attack our new school."

At the side, Zhu Hou looked at the Confucian scholars outside, and said without hesitation.

He has already seen through the faces of these Confucian scholars. When it comes to writing, citing classics and so on, these Confucian scholars are indeed very good. Any one of them can write a beautiful article, and any thing can also write romantic stories by citing scriptures. Come.

But apart from these, these Confucian scholars basically don't understand anything, just like the ministers above the court, there are really too few ministers who are really capable and practical.

Most of the ministers, the way of governing the country they learned is only the content of the book, the key is that their minds are also focused on fighting for power and profit, and few of them are really capable.

What they like most is that the king will rule under the arch, regardless of everything, just listen to them, the civil servants, and then follow the so-called rule of the world with loyalty and filial piety.

The reincarnation of one dynasty after another, and the years of thousands of years, have not made much progress.

But the new learning, although it has not been a long time since its rise, it can be seen in all aspects that various useful machines have been invented, productivity has been greatly improved, life has become richer, and the court has become stronger.

These are all visible, if there is no new learning, how can Daming make cheap cloth?
Without cheap cloth, ordinary people would not be able to dress warmly and well.

How could steam tillers, harvesters, trains, and ships be built without new learning?
Such an obvious contrast made Zhu Houzhao very unsympathetic to these Confucian scholars.

Here, at the School of Mechanical Engineering, the students of the School of Mechanical Engineering became angry when they learned that Confucian scholars had come to attack their school again. A large number of students came to the school gate from various places in the school to confront these Confucian scholars. together.

"What face do you have here?"

"In the name of a school, but they are doing things that are not respectful. They don't respect Confucius and Mencius, and they don't know the etiquette. Why don't you hurry up and let us smash this dirty place?"

Seeing the students from the School of Mechanical Engineering rushing to the school gate, these Confucian students not only did not have the slightest fear, but even shouted outrightly.

"That's right, that's right, get out of the way, let's smash this bad school."

"Yes, all new schools must be completely closed."

The Confucian scholar next to him kept shouting.

"You sour and rotten scholars, did we invite you to provoke you?"

"If you don't study well in your own school and come to our school to make trouble, do you have any intentions?"

The students of the School of Mechanical Engineering were very angry. Even reading a book was not pure. Hearing the words of these Confucian scholars made him even more angry. The school is clearly clean, but in the mouths of these Confucian scholars, it is a dirty place.

Insulting one's own school is insulting oneself, which is tolerable or unbearable, and no matter what, you have to argue with these Confucian scholars.

"That's right, that's right~"

"Our school is a place for teaching and educating people. How can we allow you to spout shit and talk nonsense here."

"Firstly, we don't want to compete with you in the imperial examination, and secondly, we don't want to have any contact with you Confucian scholars. Get the hell out of here. It makes me sick to see you hypocritical hypocrites."

"Yes, get out of here quickly, you hypocrites, you don't have any skills, and you know it every day, Ziyue, Ziyue, I don't see any contribution you have made to Daming?"

"Are you expanding your territory?"

"Still planting the land to pay for food?"

"They're just a bunch of helpless trash~"

The students of the School of Mechanical Engineering are also young people, and they are also scolding these Confucian scholars.

　The ideas, positions, etc. represented by the new learning and the old learning are completely different, and conflicts and contradictions will inevitably arise. At the same time, many interests will be involved, and there will inevitably be long-term and continuous contradictions~
