After Zhu Xi finished the report, after sitting down, Shen Kuo of the Science and Technology Bureau stood up to report.

"Qi Bingjun, the current research and development of science and technology is all concentrated on the steam engine. The progress of research and development has made breakthroughs, and the test machine has been completed!"

When Yang Song heard that Shen Kuo had made a breakthrough in the research and development of the steam engine, he even made a prototype. He was very happy and asked, "How is the steam engine made?"

Shen Kuo's face was still very calm, without any excitement, and replied: "Come back to you, although the prototype can operate, it occupies a lot of land, does not reach expectations, and has a lot of noise, which only solves the breakthrough between existence and non-existence."

So that's it. Yang Songping nodded as expected, and he knew that this thing was too impatient.

Although he knew that there was a steam engine and some methods of application, such as trains, factories, etc., he used to study liberal arts, and science only had the same things as junior high school, and he forgot everything.

Otherwise, he could develop it himself, and even internal combustion engines and electric motors could be developed. Unfortunately, he only knew these things, and it would be possible to use them simply. The others were to have ten or nine orifices - they could not understand any of them!

The principle he knew had already been told to Shen Kuo that he would say anything about the reciprocating movement and the cylinder as long as he could think of it. As for whether it was useful, it depends on Shen Kuo and the others’ ability!

Yang Song, who was just a joyful moment, thought to himself: "Oh~ I can only complete the task and wait for the system's reward!"

Shen Kuo now has a group of people in the research institute, all of which are excellent personnel who graduated from middle schools. Although they can only help, they are better than none. Otherwise, Shen Kuo would not even develop such a model!

"Your Majesty, the latest cannon-specific steel has made a major breakthrough and has reached the expected level. Thanks to Mr. Shen from the Science and Technology Bureau for his help!" Li Ji then stood up to report and bowed to Shen Kuo as he said.

To talk about this, we have to start with the development of steam engines. One of the major problems in Shen Kuo’s development of steam engines is that the materials are not up to standard, but the smelter has not made any major breakthroughs. He had no choice but to inspect it, and after he came back, he went straight into the library.

Finally, he found technical information about metal smelting in Rushan's information. After he was busy for several months, he finally discovered the problems of the smelting factory and corrected them, the smelting factory finally made a qualitative breakthrough!

In fact, it is not a big deal. It is just that the method of combining theory with practice is not used to summarize experience. With the help of Shen Kuo, a researcher, detailed process specifications are formulated and insufficient summary is not enough. The smelting technology is progressing rapidly!

In the final analysis, this problem is the lack of talents, the lack of talents with sufficient theoretical knowledge, which is commonly known as engineers!

Without these important talents, even if the complete set of mature steam engine technical information is placed in front of the workers, the workers can only be confused and anxious to watch!

But what's the use of being anxious now? The university has just been built, and the first class of students will have to wait until the second half of the year to be admitted. Even if they are admitted, there will not be many people.

Because there are only a few people who can be teachers.

Shen Kuo can serve as a tutor in smelting, machinery and chemical engineering; Zhu Xi can teach administrative management; Qin Jiushao teaches mathematician; Chen Wei teaches agriculture; Yang Zhongfu teaches astronomy; Song Ci teaches law, detective, etc.; Li Ji can teach architecture and Changsun Sheng teaches foreign languages ​​in this world!

All the teachers are part-time, and there is no one who can be permanent. They can only take some time every day to teach students, and even have to shoulder the task of compiling textbooks!

Fortunately, there is a library in which many information can be found. They just sorted out and summarized it, but even so, the amount of task is amazing.

Officials like Changsun Sheng who seem more leisurely all served as part-time jobs as an "inspector" under Yang Song's "explosion", let alone other personnel!

Finally, with Yang Song's approval, I decided to learn and teach, replace the textbooks in the middle, and summarize experience while practicing. Anyway, I have to run this university and achieve zero breakthroughs!

If you don’t make up your mind and overcome difficulties, this university will never be established!

There are still two months left before the university starts. The preparations are done, and if they are not done, they can only be forced!

Higher education is an important direction for development at this stage. Talents rely solely on systematic rewards are the stupidest idea. Only what you master is the real power!

After these batches of senior talents graduate, Xia Guo’s development will break through the bottleneck in front of him!

Yes, the development of Xia Kingdom has now fallen into a bottleneck! ——The productivity cannot meet the requirements! ——I have never met it!

There is no shortage of labor objects, there are all raw materials and equipment. As long as it is fully utilized, productivity can be improved! - Many reward equipment still produces dust in the warehouse because it is not useful!

There is no shortage of labor materials. Where is the entire library placed? It is not a lack of technology, but a lack of educated technical workers.

Workers are the key point of productivity and the dominant player in everything, but this is the most important factor that lacks!

It is not a lack of ordinary workers, but a lack of middle and high-level technical workers, especially those who receive systematic higher education, but there is not a single one!

Ordinary workers are very easy to solve. They can be satisfied sooner or later. If they really don’t work, then implement the ‘foreign slavery system’! ——In fact, it has been implemented long ago, but it has not been officially announced!

In the past, the lack of productivity was caused by the shortage of ordinary workers, and the requirements in other aspects were not as high as they are now. At that time, as long as they could survive, it was enough, but now it is a problem of development!

It’s okay not to develop. With the current technological strength, as long as you try to hold back the population, wait for more than ten years, and in a few decades, the scale will reach boundless. It’s not difficult to push the world even if you push it!

But after a few hundred years, the country he established will enter the old path of the previous world. After hundreds of years, there will be basically no progress in the past few thousand years. We can only be self-confidence and recurrence!

What is the point of building such a country and such civilization? What is the use of occupying the whole world?

So what Yang Song saw was not only the dozens, dozens, hundreds of years in front of him, but tens of millions of years later!

He can be said to be, already standing on the shoulders of the giant, and his previous historical experience made him decide not to be controlled by others!

Now, even if Yang Song's system disappears, Xia Kingdom will not have any sequelae, but its development has become slower!

For Yang Song, the functions of this system helped him in the early stage, and now the help to him is just a development accelerator!

So, if you take a step back, even if the system disappears, he will be upset, but not despair!
Chapter completed!
