329. Chapter 329 Theory of Experimentation and Change

Pang Tong suddenly mentioned a new topic: "My king, we have many schools now, but they all teach very basic courses. I feel that we can establish some more advanced schools so that some people with time and energy can continue to study after six years of study, which should be able to cultivate better talents."

Sun Quan once thought about going from elementary school to university, but he found that one had no faculty to teach, and the other had no so many courses to teach. Now he can at most do some basic courses such as history, geography, mathematics, agriculture, law, and thought. He can't find so many majors, but he also wants to explore slowly, so he said:

"Your idea is very good. I have also thought about building a university, but what content should we teach? If there are no good courses and textbooks, what is the use of building it? This requires the Education Department to slowly accumulate these things before it can be established. For example, our study hall is actually equivalent to a university, but the content is also very simple. Even if we are proficient in ideological education, legal learning, and governance experience, we do not have other content."

Guo Jiaze said: "My king, I heard that many of the contents of those courses were compiled by Nian Nujiao. Isn't it written by the king? Then why don't I write some of them? Isn't there any guidance from the Emperor of Heaven?"

Sun Quan was speechless, but he still said with a fork: "Although there is guidance from the Emperor of Heaven, the Emperor of Heaven at most also indicates a direction. I don't have to do the specific things. Do you think my head is so powerful that I can get anything out, so what else do I have to do?"

Guo Jia asked, "My king, what courses should our universities have? There is a goal, and we can study the specific things we can ask for."

Sun Quan thought it was right. He could choose a talented person to start a research institute first, and then wait for them to achieve results, write textbooks, and then establish a college. So he said, "Yongxiao, you are indeed a talented person, haha, I know how to do it."

Both Pang Tong and Guo Jia didn't understand very well, and Sun Quan said, "While eating, I will tell you slowly."

While having dinner, Sun Quan said: "My idea is to select some outstanding talents from all aspects and let them study some topics that the country needs to pay attention to now. After they have developed the results, they will lead people and write textbooks. Gradually, we can establish a university."

Pang Tong asked: "Then what we need to pay attention to now is nothing more than fighting and unifying the world."

Sun Quan cursed: "Little Phoenix, you are still not good at it. You are too short-sighted. What you need to study the most now is not the military aspect. There are already many people doing this in the martial arts lecture hall. The problem we need to solve the most now is management!"

Pang Tong and Guo Jia were even more confused when they heard this. Sun Quan continued: "Whether in the military or local government departments, we need to do the best management. We must have good management methods, management tools, management skills and experience study and accumulation. For example, when we talk about how to lead a company, we are all teaching other people's experience. Have you ever thought about it specifically? In addition to the experience of those veterans, and in addition to the ideological work that I asked everyone to do, are there any other methods and techniques? Have you ever investigated what kind of division of labor and structure of a company should be the most complete? How to motivate soldiers and train soldiers is the best effect? ​​All these things have been studied. We can build a university to teach everyone how to be a company commander and how to manage a company well, but these need someone to figure out."

After hearing this, Pang Tong and Guo Jia were shocked. They have always used these things according to the past, and they did not think about improving or improving them in the past. According to Sun Quan's opinion, this university is not that simple, and they have to make changes first.

Guo Jia said: "My king, our military system has been changed by you. Does it mean that we still have to continue to change? This has never been like this! The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, and even many of the Qin systems were inherited from the Western Zhou Dynasty and even earlier. There was no such thing as this. There was a new thing today and another tomorrow. Can the people accept it?"

Sun Quan said: "Little Phoenix, Fengxiao, what Fengxiao said is the thought of many people. However, in Wu, everyone is used to it, or is numb, because I get some new things every now and then. But the reason for this is that the situation in Wu is changing."

After eating a dish, Sun Quan said, "If you say that, there are many things that actually change very slowly. For example, the rise and fall of the sun and the moon, as well as the terrain, etc., will change very slowly, but there are many things that do change very quickly. For example, the changes in the four seasons and the natural environment will be very different. We must wear different clothes in spring and summer, otherwise we will feel uncomfortable."

"In fact, our system is the same, our knowledge and thoughts are the same. Our people often have the worries of not having enough food before. However, since we introduced high-yield crops, gave the people enough land, and reduced a lot of burdens for the people, the people have enough food and clothing to eat and wear, but after the people can eat and wear and wear, their thoughts will change."

"You are so filial to you. When you were caught by our army, you were actually unconscious for a long time. When you woke up, you would feel like you had died once. At this time, your loyalty to Cao Gong will be greatly reduced, because you have used your life to be loyal to Cao Gong. At this time, your heart is actually relaxed. Then I can value you so much, understand you, and then use some means, you will have a good impression of me and some urge to be loyal to me."

"So when your son was taken over by me, you were completely loyal to me. That's because in this process, you experienced major changes in life and death, and saw a possible better situation in the future you pursue, so you changed your mind."

"And many of our things are actually the same. It's like when fighting, the situation of our enemy has changed and we adjust our strategies and policies. So why do we have a different understanding when governing the country? That's because everyone is afraid: everyone feels that doing things according to previous experience will not have better results, but there will be no bad situations. In this way, you can explain it to the face, and at most you can scold one by one, but you can hold your own official position and status."

"Once you make some changes rashly, because it may not be able to do it very well, so once a problem occurs, you will be caught by others. After reporting it in person, your fate will be very miserable. So everyone advocates not to change and follow the ancestral system. In fact, the purpose of doing this is to protect your own interests."

After hearing this, Pang Tong and Guo Jia fell into deep thought. After a while, Pang Tong said, "My king, what you said is right, but everyone's concerns make sense. If the process of change and those methods are not perfect enough, the result will become uncontrollable, or it will become very bad, and it is also appropriate to be cautious."

Sun Quan said: "Your idea is wrong again. Being cautious does not mean that you are not doing anything. Naturally, it is necessary to avoid imperfect or bad results. If I ask everyone to test it with blast furnace, I will not use blast furnaces all the time. Instead, I will let everyone experiment first and then promote it if the test is successful. For example, in our Wu State system, I first asked Zhuge Ziyu to test it in Zijin County, then go to Jiaozhou to test it, and finally promote it to the whole country. So when we do something new, we must do the experiment first. If the test is successful, we can promote it. Then the problems we encounter are some small problems, and then some detailed adjustments can be solved."

After Sun Quan said so much, he felt tired. He wanted to fool two top wise men. But it seemed that both of them had begun to understand and said, "Two, let's do it. It's not too early, and I'm very sleepy. You guys should go and rest early. Anyway, we have a few months left in Japan. Everyone should think slowly. After returning to Stone City, we will study it carefully and talk about this matter later."

Pang Tong and Guo Jia went back to rest, but both were shocked. Sun Quan's thoughts and actions had already made them feel that it was too unimaginable. They used to think that Sun Quan was a genius, so they thought of so many things. But according to Sun Quan's words, it seems that these things are not so genius. They just passed some changes first to verify them and then promoted them to the world. But at the same time, Sun Quan could think of this most essential thing, which was also the most genius.

Sun Quan also knew that it was not easy for him to promote experimental science and seek truth from facts, so he had to use the Taoist scriptures to change the dominant thoughts of this society and make Confucianism lose its dominance. Then, through the Taoist scriptures, people would explore ways to understand nature, and slowly influence everyone and enable everyone to transform from conservative thoughts.
