Bone King's Universal Grocery

Chapter 230 Mines in the Fairy Continent

Chris glanced at Xu Liang, who was looking embarrassed in the classroom, blushed, and then turned her head to look behind her.

This sight startled Chris, and she hurriedly stepped back for a standard knight salute.

"Chris, I have already left the city guards, why are you being so polite?" Mingyue stepped forward and helped Chris up.

"Master Mingyue, why are you here?" Chris asked as she got up.

"I am here to learn."

"Study? Master Mingyue, will you still study?"

"Yeah! Happy learning and using!"

"Master Er Mingyue, if I remember correctly, the place you hated the most since you were a child is school. Back then, Lord Hughes often worried about this matter."

"Ahem, Chris, what are you talking about? Is this the case? Don't destroy my glorious image."

"You still have a brilliant image of a fart. Why didn't Hughes tell me back then?" Li Hong, who was behind Mingyue, complained.

Hearing Li Hong's voice, Chris was startled and thought: 'This person has been standing behind Master Mingyue?But why can't I feel his presence?If he is an enemy, Chris didn't dare to think about it anymore, and looked at Li Hong with a little more awe and vigilance.

Mingyue noticed Chris' eyes and patted her shoulder and said: "Chris, don't be so careful, this guy is my friend, there is no malice."

"Master Mingyue's friend? Is he also here to study?"

"No, he is a teacher."

"Teacher? Are you a teacher?"

Li Hong nodded.

"Did you take out that nine-nine multiplication table?"

Li Hong nodded again.

"Sir, I'm here just to talk to you about the nine-nine multiplication table."

"Ninety-nine multiplication table?"

"Yes, sir, do you know? This nine-nine multiplication table is of great significance to Liberty City and even the two continents. If you can agree to popularize the multiplication table, it can greatly improve children's math operations Ability to promote the overall progress of mathematics is a matter of great benefit.”

What Chris said was something that Li Hong had never thought of, but her words reminded Li Hong that instead of trying to teach these adults whose way of thinking has been fixed here, it is better to start with children.

Education should start from childhood, let children be exposed to scientific and cultural knowledge from an early age, and when they grow up, they will naturally be better invested in scientific and technological research and development.

Thinking that Li Hong had already made a decision, he agreed with Chris on the spot to give the nine-to-nine multiplication table to the children.

After the class of the day was over, Li Hong went to the City Lord's Mansion on purpose. After some discussions, Guo Lin agreed to add a subject to all the schools in Liberty City—Science.

Guo Lin's move caused dissatisfaction at first from many schools. In the eyes of the principals of these schools, their schools are academies for training magicians and swordsmen. The new course opened by the city lord has nothing to do with cultivation. It will only slow down the progress of children's growth.

It's just that Guo Lin is the lord of Liberty City and also a strong man in Fairyland, so the principals dare not object and can only obediently obey.

But soon they discovered that the most excellent academy in Liberty City, Liberty Martial Arts Academy, had also offered this course and started teaching it normally.

This made the principals of other schools confused for a moment. At this moment, Guo Lin sent someone to deliver another thing to these principals, which was exactly the nine-nine multiplication table.

The principals have been engaged in education for many years and have rich experience. As soon as they see the nine-nine multiplication table, they understand the great significance of this thing to children.

Guo Lin strikes while the iron is hot and tells these principals that the nine-nine multiplication table is just the most basic product of science.

So far, none of the principals of the school has objected, and they have set up the subject of science in their own schools.

What taught these children was a large-scale auxiliary practice scroll made by Li Hong. This scroll recorded the most basic knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry, and could pull 200 children into the scroll at the same time, allowing them to study in the scroll. Li Hongdu, the scroll, has been infused with a huge amount of mental power, which can be used at least a hundred times.

These scrolls soon became the main tool for children to learn science. At the same time, Guo Lin also gave orders to the principals to keep the scrolls carefully and not let foreign spies steal the scrolls.

This is also the result of discussions between Guo Lin and Li Hong. At first, Li Hong planned to teach without discrimination and to popularize science, but his idea was blocked by Guo Lin. Guo Lin did not agree with the dissemination of science and technology, but He felt that other forces could not start developing science at this time like Liberty City, at least until Liberty City made great progress in science and even developed its own weapons before promoting it.

Li Hong thought about it and thought it was right. Liberty City was one of his strongholds. Letting them develop first was also a guarantee for him, so Li Hong agreed to Guo Lin's request.

In the next two months, the schools in Liberty City began to conduct a census of the children's identity and background. The last school selected 200 students whose grandparents and grandchildren lived in Liberty City for more than three generations, and took an extra science class every two days. , and communicated with the parents of the children, asking them to keep this matter confidential.

This not only ensures the promotion of science and technology, but also deceives most of the spies. Of course, not all of the spies are concealed. The guards captured and killed him on the spot.

Such an act of killing chickens and monkeys made the spies in Liberty City quiet down instantly, and the promotion of science and technology in Liberty City was on the right track.

On the other side, in the territory of the Great Tang Dynasty in the Fairy Continent, mining of various minerals began under the supervision of Vizier Dora. The two brothers and sisters of Jixiang Ruyi that Li Hong bought before were also sent to Vizier Dora. .

The reason why Li Hong bought these two brothers and sisters was because of the blood of the Li clan in them. The Li clan can sense the fluctuations of the earth veins. In a sense, minerals are like companions of earth veins.

Li Hong sent the Jixiang Ruyi brothers and sisters there for two purposes. One is to let them help determine the location of the leylines near the mine, so as not to damage the leylines when digging; the other is to let them find more leylines, because there must be the presence of minerals.

Right now is the early stage of the development of science and technology, these minerals may not be that important, but with the advancement of technology in Liberty City, these things will be used sooner or later.
