    Classes in the Imperial College have ended, and students in twos and threes began to wander around. When they saw someone gathering at the door, they all rushed over.

    Fang Xing nodded and said, "If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

    Zhao Sheng handed the book bag to his companion, glanced at the crowd around him, and said seriously: "May I ask Mr. Fang, did you write the preface in that book by yourself?"

    Fang Xing said inexplicably: "Of course I did it. Do you have to ask someone to catch the preface?"

    Zhao Sheng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and did not give up his hand. Instead, he looked at the people gathered around and said loudly: "Mr. Fang, you wrote in the preface that mathematics is the foundation of all learning. May I ask who said it?  "

    The students around him took a deep breath.  Most people here bought Fang Xing's book, but they just sneered at the preface.

    But no one had ever thought about Zhao Sheng¡¯s move of blocking Fang Xing and then questioning him in public.

    ¡°It¡¯s hard to wake up down here!¡± Someone said with gloating.

    "Is Ma Su here?"

    "No, he seems to be going to have some trouble today."

    The so-called history is internship.  As a student of the Imperial College, there are often opportunities for internships like this.

    "It's a pity. If he were here, Fang Xing's face would be ugly today, and his dignity as a teacher would be completely lost."

    ""

    There were various discussions here, but Fang Xing had already changed his face.

    Damn it!  , this is directed at me!

    After sneering, Fang Xing said, "Do you think there is something wrong with my preface?"

    When Zhao Sheng saw more and more people, he said with a sigh of relief: "Of course there is a problem. You said arithmetic is the foundation of all learning, so where does that put my famous teaching?"

    Damn it!  What a poisonous word!

    However, Fang Xing was not afraid and said, "Have you ever studied arithmetic?"

    "Learnlearned."

    If a student of the Imperial College dares to say that he has never studied, then outsiders will think that you are lazy.

    Hearing Zhao Sheng's words, Fang Xing looked around and said, "The foundation of all learning refers to the wide application of mathematics in various aspects. For example, an old farmer, a businessman, an official, or even an  Bachelor, mathematics is used in all walks of life, do you have any objection to this?"

    Fang Xing avoided a direct confrontation with Confucianism, because he would die miserably and no one could save him.

    ¡°As for the old farmers and businessmen I just talked about, these are not the ones who need to learn Confucianism.

    As for officials having to learn Confucianism, that¡¯s because of the academic monopoly.  If you don¡¯t study Confucianism and your academic performance is not ideal, then you are not even qualified to enter this system.

    There is no more powerful weapon than this monopoly, so stereotyped writing has become popular since then.

    Zhao Sheng saw someone looking thoughtful and shouted: "Of course I have objections!"

    "I am also a Confucian, and I will never lag behind others in the six arts of a gentleman!"

    "The six arts of a gentleman, but what Confucius taught at that time were: poetry, calligraphy, etiquette, Yi, Spring and Autumn, and music, which did not include numbers.

    This is to summarize all of Fang Xing's mathematics into the Confucianism of the Old Master, eliminating the possibility of Fang Xing being in the limelight alone.

    ¡°This is an attempt to slap a bucket of shit on Fang Xing¡¯s head, and also to weaken his reputation for publishing books.

    Brother can't bear it anymore!

    Fang Xing smiled at Zhao Sheng, and then said: "My mathematics is not the kind you mentioned. As for which kind it is, I won't tell you!"

    Turning around, Fang Xing said to everyone like a pyramid scheme: "Dear supervisors, I will take this opportunity to talk to you about the application of mathematics in various aspects."

    Everyone looked at Fang Xing expectantly. No matter what he said, either everyone would gain something, or they would just throw away rotten eggs.

    Fang Xing didn¡¯t see Zhao Sheng¡¯s livid face behind him, and said to himself: ¡°The way of mathematics lies in application, not in being a lofty god.¡±

    ¡°For example, if a farmer learns mathematics, then he can analyze the family¡¯s income and expenditure, and predict future expenses based on the family¡¯s situation. This is not an estimate, but an accurate calculation.¡±

    "And those small farmers can also calculate whether it is cost-effective to farm other people's fields, and these often require experienced farmers to calculate."

    "right!"

    At this time, a supervisor in the crowd, who was probably born in a farmer's family, stood up and said: "Mr. Fang, what you said is absolutely correct. My family used to?I can rely on my father to calculate my income, but I can only do nothing.  "

    Facing this supervisor who dared to reveal that he was born into a poor family, Fang Xing gave a warm smile, and then continued: "Then there is the businessman. The businessman has learned mathematics. He can easily calculate the buying and selling, the balance of money, and the amount of money.  How much profit can there be after adding the cost. But usually these require hiring a bookkeeper."

    When it comes to businessmen, no one dares to speak out because the status of businessmen in the country is not high at present.  The so-called scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, the merchants are at the end.

    Fang Xing said without feeling dissatisfied: "As for the craftsmen, I dare to say here that a craftsman who cannot do mathematics will have to work harder and more strenuously than others if he wants to become a good craftsman!"

    Craftsmen cannot rely solely on experience.  Calculation of dimensions, calculation of stress, accounting of all aspects of engineering

    Fang Xing looked at the students around him, and finally mentioned Shi.

    "The last one is the scholar, that is, the official."

    This guy is seeking death!

    There are many people around who are looking at Fang Xing like this. How dare you make mathematics a required subject for officials? This is not a challenge to everyone.

    "I don't need to say more about the benefits of junior officials learning mathematics. Everyone knows it, but what about the parents and officials?"

    Fang Xing seemed not to notice those looks, and said, "There is a phenomenon now, that is, people who have just been appointed officials by their parents will mostly hire one or several staff to provide consultation or calculate money and food."

    "This is the parent official!"

    Fang Xing said with a sad face: "I don't understand anything. All affairs are controlled by the junior officials or staff below"

    He is about to kill himself!

    Many people are waiting for Fang Xing to start complaining, for example

    Aren¡¯t you mediocre officials?

    "Ahem! Then why not learn mathematics well?"

    Fang Xing changed the topic, and while disappointing people, he said with excitement: "For example, the Ministry of Household Affairs. After learning the advanced parts of mathematics, you can analyze the abnormal changes in the entry and exit of various places in the Ming Dynasty, and even the whole country, and even more  It can be expressed intuitively and clearly with charts.¡±

    ¡°In that case, can the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development make a better response based on these specific fluctuations and the changes in climate disasters in various places?¡±

    "There are also the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of War"

    Seeing that everyone was waiting for the next words, Fang Xing glanced at Zhao Sheng with disdain, rubbed his stomach and said, "It's already dinner time. Let's continue this next time we have a chance."

    He just left like that?

    Everyone watched in stunned silence as Fang Xing walked out of the door and walked away under the protection of his servants.

    "We haven't mentioned any specific examples yet, so why are we leaving?"

    "I'm still waiting for him to talk about the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of War. You know, my family has said that I will most likely be appointed to these two places." (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com
