I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Wu Changqing was really awarded an official position, and when he made his move, he was awarded from the sixth rank, and even the fifth rank. This start is too high, and many students feel incredible.

In the past, even if it was a champion in the imperial examinations, it had to start with the sixth-rank Hanlin.

And now, Guan Mengfei, who was ranked only 20th in total score, was awarded a fifth-grade rank and was rewarded with 5,000 taels of silver. This is really beyond the expectations of many people.

For articles like Guan Mengfei, being able to get a third-class jinshi in the imperial examinations is a super-level performance. And now, he got a higher start than the champion.

Many students are excited because they know that this is just the beginning. As long as they study hard and study hard, they will get a good grade in the next exam and they can also get an official position.

Some are even smarter. From Wu Changqing's award, he found that Wu Changqing prefers those with excellent scores in miscellaneous subjects.

This time, a total of six people won official positions. Among them, only Wei Ziwen was the one with outstanding performance in classical studies, while the others were all outstanding in miscellaneous subjects. Among them, Ye Jinliang, who won the sixth-rank principal, was even the last one in the study of classics.

Since studying miscellaneous subjects can quickly become an official, and the study of the classics has become unimportant, then what is the study of the classics. It is the most correct way to spend the time of studying the classics on miscellaneous studies.

Many people have secretly prepared to adjust their strategies, preparing to focus on studying miscellaneous subjects such as physics and arithmetic.

After announcing the award, Wu Changqing, Shen Lianming and others went to another room to discuss the next teaching work.

As soon as several adults and teachers left, the students began to become active.

"Congratulations to Brother Wei, and congratulations to Brother Wei."

"Brother Li's words are bad. Now we can no longer call Brother Ziwen Wei, we have to call Master Wei."

Fifth-rank officials and sixth-rank officials are already middle-level officials of a country, and they start at fifth-rank. As long as they don’t make mistakes in the future, it is only a matter of time before they reach third-rank and second-rank, then they are the core class of a country.

How can other people not envy this kind of life.

"This is all thanks to the Governor's appreciation. Although I have an official status now, we are colleagues, so we don't have to live so much."

Wei Ziwen said with a smile, he was also a little surprised by this result. In terms of total score, he was not outstanding, but in the end he also won a good official position.

Some people who ranked ahead of him in total score got nothing.

"Brother Feng, what's the matter, Lord Governor, you are obviously the first in total score and single subject, why didn't you give you an official?"

Liu Tao expressed an injustice on Feng Xianzhong's behalf, but Feng Xianzhong himself didn't particularly care.

He believed that Wu Changqing definitely had other plans for not appointing him an official, not because of his incompetence.

As a genius, he still has this confidence.

Ignoring the consolations of others, Feng Xianzhong just continued to read silently.

Similar to him is related to Meng Fei. Even though he has already obtained an official position and received a huge reward of 5,000 taels of silver, he seems not to be very happy and continues to indulge in a drawing.

It was the blueprint that Wu Changqing sent to him. It was the technology of howitzer shells. Wu Changqing asked him to study it, and then he built this thing.

Howitzer shells are the kind of shells that can be blasted after flying out. The current shells flying out are all big iron balls. The momentum is very scary, but the lethality is actually extremely limited.

The howitzer is different. It flies on the enemy's head and explodes, and the effect is the same as a grenade. The difference is that the amount of charge in the shell is more than ten times that of the grenade.

This kind of shell explodes, and the killing range can reach a radius of ten meters, which is very terrifying.

Of course, this shell is also very technical. The iron shell is too thick and easy to explode, and too thin and easy to explode in the barrel. Moreover, how to ignite is also a big problem.

Wu Changqing lit up this technology and knew the principle of manufacturing, but it is still difficult to make it by hand.

Moreover, it was impossible for him to do such a dangerous thing himself, so he handed it over to Guan Mengfei to study.

Guan Mengfei did not dare to be careless about the task Wu Changqing personally explained. After accepting the reward, he hurried to the weapon workshop, where he needed the cooperation and experimentation of craftsmen.

Not long after, Feng Xianzhong was also called to the back room, and Wu Changqing personally arranged work for him.

"The reason why I didn't give you an official appointment is because I didn't want to waste your talent. You don't have to worry, as long as you have completed what I told you, you will be at least a national child prisoner in the future. After you have mastered enough knowledge, I still have some very important projects for you, if you can invent and improve some of the things I need like Guan Mengfei, let alone an official position, I have prepared the title for you."

For Feng Xianzhong, Wu Changqing attaches great importance, this is a very rare genius.

In the future, things like steam engines will be handed over to him.

Wu Changqing can only provide the theory and technical process, and the actual work has to rely on talents like Feng Xianzhong and Guan Mengfei.

"Students obey the teachings."

Facing this man who was a few years younger than himself, Feng Xianzhong was very respectful. On the one hand, it is because of Wu Changqing's power and achievements, and on the other hand, he admires Wu Changqing's talent and learning.

In the past, he had some contempt for Wu Changqing, but after reading the extensive physics books written by Wu Changqing, he no longer dared to have such thoughts.

Moreover, now Wu Changqing also promised him an official title, which made him have to be grateful.

Guozijian's sacrificial wine is a high-ranking official from the fourth grade, about the same as the president of Peking University in later generations, and has a very high status.

"This is the medium physics I wrote, you first

Research, if there is something you don't understand, you can come to my house directly to find me. Usually, I have something to leave Suzhou, and you will be your substitute for physics to teach those students. "

Wu Changqing handed him a middle-level physics book, and the content on it began to become esoteric, including complex mechanical movements and principles, as well as basic electromagnetism and other content.

Feng Xianzhong was overjoyed when he heard the words, and he could go to the imperial palace to ask for advice at any time. This honor is not something that everyone can enjoy.

There is also this middle-level physics, which makes him like a treasure. Now that he has studied elementary physics, he has more questions about the world and is eager to find answers.

As for letting him take the class instead, it raised his identity to a level and differentiated him from other students.

"Students must study hard."

Feng Xianzhong said.

"Well, spend all your time on this, and you also need to study arithmetic. As for the classics, there is no need to waste time, it will not be of any use to you."

Wu Changqing was very dissatisfied when he saw that Feng Xianzhong's classics examination was also a first-class, this is not a waste of talents. This kind of brain, learning the Four Books and Five Classics is really a big waste.

Feng Xianzhong was speechless when he heard the words. He didn't know why the governor of his family hated the study of classics so much. But since Wu Changqing spoke in person, he could give up the study of the classics completely in the future.
