"Why can't you lift yourself, who weighs 200 to 300 kilograms? It seems like a simple task, but none of you can do it. " Ren Baqian looked at the crowd. There were 49 students, 34 boys, and 15 girls. They ranged from 13 to 18 years old.
Ren Baqian saw that everyone was looking at him doubtfully after they tried it. It was as if they were wondering why they couldn't do it. Ren Baqian then said, "This is what I want to teach you. What is force, how is force conducted, and how is force used. How can you do things that you can't do? How can you move objects that are several times heavier than your own strength? Of course, the most important thing is the nature and principle of matter in heaven and earth. This subject is called physics.
You should be glad that you can sit here and listen to me talk about this because it clarifies the nature of matter in heaven and earth. After learning this, you can truly see the world.
"Everyone here should know me. Let me introduce myself again. I'm Ren Baqian, also the superintendent of this Black Bamboo Academy. You are the first batch of disciples here, so you can call me teacher.
Towards a person who can teach you knowledge, a person who can decide whether you stay or go in this academy, you must maintain sufficient respect.
At the same time, as a pioneer in knowledge and someone who knows more than all of you combined, you must also maintain sufficient respect. "
"Do you understand?" Ren Baqian propped his hands on the table and looked down at everyone.
Everyone understood, but no one said anything.
"Understood, teacher!" The person who spoke was a young man named Xu Ping, who was considered an ordinary disciple.
After he spoke, the other ordinary disciples followed suit.
"What about you? Are you mute? My words are very clear. I'm the boss here, so you have to answer my questions. If you don't want to stay here, go home and be a pet.
Now, do you understand? "Ren Baqian raised his voice and said coldly.
"Understood!"
"Understood …"
"Understood!"
Everyone was intimidated by Ren Baqian's imposing manner and answered softly.
"Louder. Is this a food market? It's so messy! "Ren Baqian frowned and looked dissatisfied.
"Understood!" This time, the voices were much louder, but it was still very messy. After all, it was difficult for these undisciplined aboriginal youths to answer at once.
Although this was an extremely simple matter for the Earthlings, it was not a difficult task.
Ren Baqian nodded slightly and said, "A country has its laws, a family has its rules, and an academy has its own rules. When the time comes, I will tell you what you can and can't do. If you violate the rules, you will be beaten and punished if you deserve it. In serious cases, you will be expelled from the academy, just like that idiot just now.
You all know your own situation very well. Most of you have a foreseeable future. You will achieve nothing and have no value. All you can do is maintain this state of being alive. Yes, it's a state. You look alive, but in reality, there's nothing. You're all hollow. Even if you peel off your skin and put it on a wooden frame, there's no difference between you and yourself.
Because this is how you are. Your insides are empty, nothing at all. You only have the appearance of being alive.
Although many people are like this, do you want to be like this too?
This Black Bamboo Academy is your only chance to learn something, to do something, and to leave something behind. Let those who think that you are useless open their eyes wide and look at you in a new light.
Therefore, cherish the opportunity to learn here. This is your only chance, "Ren Baqian said word by word as he looked at everyone.
Following his words, the expressions on many people's faces changed. Anger, unwillingness, contemplation, and various other expressions appeared on their faces.
Ever since they were young, this was the first time someone had spoken to them like this. It was also the first time someone had said these things to them.
Ren Baqian had pointed out their future. Although they were unwilling, they had to admit that his words were correct.
It was just like what he said.
Only two people were different from the rest. One was Tong Lan. She turned her head to look at everyone's expression, then looked at Ren Baqian before turning her head to look at everyone again. It was as if the expressions on everyone's faces were very interesting to her.
The other was Shi Gan. His eyes were dull, and it was obvious that he was daydreaming.
Ren Baqian waited for everyone to digest what he had said before continuing, "Every day, school starts at 7 am and ends at 2: 45 pm. Lateness is strictly prohibited. There are four classes every day, and there will be a 15-minute break between each class.
Currently, there are four subjects. The first one is language. The language that you are currently learning is too complicated and needs to be simplified. This is the simplest subject, but it also includes basic moral and quality education. A civilized society is bound to be orderly and has a certain moral standard. Moral standards are often higher than the law. Just like not bullying the old and the weak, this is the most basic moral standard.
The second subject is mathematics. I don't want to see you counting with your fingers for addition and subtraction of more than 10 digits. You only have 10 fingers, which isn't quite enough.
The third subject is physics, which is what I just said. It is the natural science that studies the most basic structure of the material world, the most common interactions, the most general laws of motion, and the experimental methods and thinking methods used.
The fourth subject is chemistry, which is also a natural science. It mainly studies the composition, nature, structure, and laws of change of matter, as well as the creation of new matter.
The first two subjects are the basics, and the last two subjects teach you the essence of this world!
There will be an assessment every month. Those who fail the assessment will be punished. Those who fail multiple times will be expelled from the college. Do you understand? "Ren Baqian asked loudly.
"Understood!" Although everyone said that they understood, they were actually dumbfounded. What were the last two subjects talking about? They didn't understand at all.
"We have already learned how to read. Why do we have to learn again?" Tong Lan raised her head and asked.
"In the future, you have to raise your hand to ask questions. You can only ask questions with my permission," Ren Baqian said in a deep voice. Then, he explained, "You have learned the language of Great Xia, which is too complicated, difficult to write, and not easy to spread. What I am teaching you is different from Great Xia's, and it is more suitable for promotion.
I hope that in the future, at least many people in Dayao can read and understand the news and newspapers, instead of the current situation where 99% of people are illiterate and have to guess what they read. "
"What's the news? What's the newspaper? "The little girl continued to ask.
"The news is something that happens in this world. It is recorded so that everyone can know about it in a timely manner. As far as the situation in Great Xia, as near as what happened in Lan City, as far as national affairs, various government decrees, and as low as the fight between your grandfather and Sir Qin in the brothel last night.
