Although not many people know this now, not everyone understands it. For example, Xie Chun and others are experts in this field, and  As far as I know, the arithmetic and astronomy knowledge required for sextant does not actually require much. As long as a person is willing to learn it, it does not take long at all. Therefore, I decided to open a special academy to educate all those who need it.  People with knowledge in this area teach, and Xie Chun and the others are the teachers in the school.¡±

    "Run a college?" Zhao Fu was stunned after hearing this. In the past, colleges or private schools were only established to teach Confucianism. But when His Highness was in Chang'an last year, he opened a military academy and a medical school, and even helped Yuan Lao Shenxian to open a Taoist school.  The college can be said to be the first of its kind, and now it is running a college that teaches arithmetic and astronomy. Is His Highness really addicted to running a college?

    ???????????? Wei Gong next to him is also a little confused. Although running a college is a good thing, he is a craftsman and barely knows a little bit about arithmetic. As for astronomy, he knows almost nothing, so running a college doesn¡¯t seem to have anything to do with him, right?

    "In my opinion, we need to set up a navigation academy here in Dengzhou. Moreover, this academy will not only teach people to use navigation instruments such as sextants, but also teach various navigation knowledge, such as ship control,  Observation of sea conditions, drawing maps, etc. In addition, the Ship Design Institute will be merged into the Navigation College and become an independent branch. At the same time, it will also recruit students from outside, instead of just recruiting from various shipyards like now.  Personnel!" Li Min said ambitiously. When he first came to Dengzhou, he wanted to open a navigation academy. Unfortunately, the time was not ripe at that time and even ocean-going ships were not built.  Not to mention others.

    "Your Highness, those who run boats are all hard-working people. Will anyone waste time learning these things?" Zhao Fu asked with deep suspicion.  Although maritime trade is now very prosperous, as he said, almost everyone on a ship, from the captain to the most ordinary crew member, has a poor background, as long as they have some connections.  Who would be willing to run a boat and risk death without a burial place?  And these poor people all rely on running boats to support their families. It is estimated that not many of them are willing to spend time to study in the academy.

    "Haha, this is easy to handle. When I return to Chang'an this time, I will suggest to my father that the captains of seagoing ships will be assessed. The several aspects of the assessment are the subjects studied in the navigation academy. If they pass the assessment, not only will they be able to  You can run the usual offshore routes, and you can also run the newly developed routes. For example, we have direct routes from Dengzhou to Japan and Liuqiu. Only captains who have passed the examination can sail these routes!" Li Min has done it a long time ago!  I was well prepared in this regard and answered very quickly.

    "This" Zhao Fu originally didn't agree with the Navigation Academy, so he thought about the enrollment issue, but he didn't expect that Li Min would use this method to enroll students. In this way, even if the captains were unwilling to learn, they would be behind them.  Their boss will probably force them to learn.  Because with the prosperity of sea trade, profits on offshore routes have been greatly compressed. Now any businessman with some knowledge knows this.  Far-sea trade is the future development trend, and if you want to go far-sea, you must have a group of qualified captains.

    "Since Your Highness has considered it so carefully, I have no objections at all!" Zhao Fu saw that Li Min had made up his mind, so he had no choice but to no longer object, bowed and said.

    Even he, the Dengzhou Biejia, agreed, and Wei Heizi naturally had no objections. However, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he thought that he would have to teach like a teacher in a private school.  And Li Min also knew that the people in Wei Heizi's ship design institute were all a group of craftsmen who lacked cultural knowledge, so he specially told him to lead others to learn more from Xie Chun. After all, he was Li Chunfeng's disciple.  , except for shipbuilding, he is better than Wei Heizi in every aspect.

    Although the college is named after navigation, in Li Min's plan, it is actually divided into two parts. The first part mainly teaches various knowledge about navigation. However, due to lack of manpower, it mainly teaches the use of sextant first.  Mainly, if you want to learn the sextant, you must learn astronomy and arithmetic first, and Xie Chun is responsible for this aspect.

    The other part is Wei Heizi's ship design. Although the ship design institute was moved to the Navigation College, it was actually moved out. Even the address of the institute did not change. The only difference is that ship design began to recruit students from outside. In the case of Dengzhou  In the developed shipbuilding industry, ship design is definitely a popular profession, so there is no need to worry about the source of students.

    Xie Chun and Wei Heizi serve as the deputy deans of the Navigation College respectively. As for the deanThe position of ?? is held by Li Min himself. After all, compared to military academies, medical schools, etc., the Navigation Academy is one of the foundations for Li Min to expand outward, so the position of dean must be in his hands.  , this is like the military academy in Chang'an City. Although Li Jing and Li Xiaogong are in charge, the position of dean is held by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin himself.

    After the affairs of the Navigation Academy were settled, there was nothing to do with Li Min. Firstly, he was not the material to manage such trivial matters. Secondly, he had already stayed in Dengzhou for several days, and it was time to leave for Chang'an.  After all, it will be mid-April soon. If we don¡¯t go back, we won¡¯t be able to catch up with the birth of the child.

    "However, compared to the previous trip, this trip back to Chang'an was much more comfortable. At least they no longer had to ride a carriage. The Yellow River had already been civilized, so they could go back by boat, which saved them a lot of bumpy rides.  It is also worth mentioning that Wu Meiniang still wanted to stay in Dengzhou, but because of the Queen of Goguryeo, she was a little angry. In the end, Li Min quietly said something to her, which made Wu Meiniang laugh.  While laughing, he also scolded Li Min for his wickedness.

    The day Li Min left Dengzhou, naturally many people came to see him off. In addition to Zhao Fu and Lu Hong, there were also many people from Dengzhou. Until Li Min got on the boat, these people still refused to disperse for a long time.  Seeing this situation, Yang Xun, who was standing on the bow of the boat with Li Min, smiled and praised: "Liu Lang, it seems that you have done a good job as the governor of Dengzhou. These people all love you from the bottom of their hearts."  !¡±

    Hearing Yang Xian's praise, before Li Min could speak, Li Ke next to him said with a face of shame: "My uncle is right. Compared to Liu Lang, I, the governor of Suzhou, am so bad that I can't even govern the people."  Don¡¯t you know how your life is going?¡±

    Li Min wanted to be humble, but when he heard Li Ke's words, he quickly changed his words: "Third brother, don't belittle yourself too much. Once the Shanghai City in Huating is completed, it will definitely drive local economic development. By then, Suzhou will definitely  It will become extremely prosperous and may even surpass the current Dengzhou, after all, the geographical location of Dengzhou is really incomparable with Shanghai.¡±

    When Li Min mentioned Shanghai over Huating, Li Ke was also shocked.  When they came back, they went to Yangzhou and also went to Huating to have a look. They found that the port in Shanghai was already under construction. Tens of thousands of people were living and eating on the construction site in order to earn a wage to support their families.  Moreover, materials from Dengzhou have been delivered, and the construction of the port is going very smoothly. In addition, the shipyard that Li Min is planning to build is also under preparation. Presumably, once the port and shipyard are completed, it will immediately attract a large number of businesses.  It depends on how the officials in charge of Shanghai govern and develop.

    "Sixth brother, I have decided that after I return to Chang'an this time, I will stay in Shanghai with my family and personally manage the development of Shanghai. If I don't build Shanghai into a prosperous place, I will not return to Chang'an!  "Li Ke was probably stimulated by Li Min, and he was full of confidence in the construction of Shanghai City, so he made such an oath.

    "Good! As expected, the blood of our Yang family is flowing in his body. A good man has ambitions in all directions, but he only knows what he can do if he stays in Chang'an City?" As soon as Li Ke finished speaking, Yang Jian immediately praised loudly.  He has been in Taiwan for decades, and his horizons have long been broadened. Otherwise, he would not have been so agreeable when he knew that Li Min had chosen to expand abroad.

    Although Li Ke has said similar things before, he has never been so determined as today.  Therefore, after Li Min heard this, he also applauded loudly like Yang Xian. Chang'an is definitely a place of right and wrong, especially for princes like them. It is not a good idea to stay in Chang'an. Li Ke can turn his eyes outside and no longer look like  In the past, he only focused on the throne, which made him, the younger brother, feel relieved.

    While Li Min and the other three were standing on the bow of the boat talking, suddenly a small figure in green rushed out of the cabin behind them. As he ran, he shouted to Li Min: "Cousin! Cousin! Your baby peed his pants again."  Got it!"

    When Li Min heard Cai'er's words, he immediately patted his head with a headache and said, "Cai'er, how many times have I told you, that's not my cousin's baby!"

    "Really?" Cai'er tilted her head and looked at Li Min, and said with disbelief, "Cousin, you're lying. If it's not your baby, then why do you bring her with you?"

    Upon hearing Cai'er's question, Yang Jian and Li Ke beside them immediately became energetic and stared at Li Min with gossipy expressions on their faces. They were also extremely curious about the baby girl on the boat. They originally thought it was  Li Min had a child with a certain woman, but Li Min denied it, and he refused to tell the child's real parents. Yang Xian and Yang Xian tried several times, but failed to get any results. Now let's see how Li Min responds.  Cai'er?

    Li Min looked at the three people in front of him who were waiting for his answer. He felt aggrieved. He brought a baby girl back to Chang'an. Although it was kept secret from the outside world, he couldn't hide it from Yang Jian and the others, and he couldn't tell them that the baby girl  It's the old man?The child of Li Shimin and the former Queen of Silla, but they did not believe the other reasons. It seemed that he could only bear the blame for the time being.

    PS: I wrote it so seriously that I almost forgot to upload it. It¡¯s more than ten minutes late. I¡¯m really sorry.
