Chapter 252 The rise of the status of technical craftsmen
When building those buildings, Xiao Qi used the strict foundation compaction requirements of his previous life, not only leveling the ground, but also using a lot of manpower.
Even the foundation of the house was dug as deep as a person and as wide as half a foot.
Many people don't understand what Xiao Qi is going to do, just build a house, why dig so deep, do you want to build a cellar?
Of course Xiao Qi would not tell them, because he was worried that the grade of cement was not enough, so he decided to dig deep into the foundation and make the foundation as deep and solid as possible.
Only in this way can he ensure that the high-rise building he wants to build can be stronger and safer.
It didn't take long for Xiao Qi to know that he was sloppy.
As the saying goes, every line is like a mountain. After the construction of the "Da Song Advanced Technical College", which Xiao Qi placed great expectations on, he discovered that there were too many problems.
The first is the safety issue. No one has ever built a high-rise building with masonry and cement structure before.
Those who were doing tentative construction for the first time did not know any safety protection knowledge at all, which surprised Xiao Qi who came to inspect the construction site of the college.
Fortunately, the teaching building and dormitory building built at this time have just reached the second floor.
Xiao Qi immediately stopped the construction, and ordered all the craftsmen in charge of the construction to be called in, and gave them a big training on safety knowledge.
Although Xiao Qi doesn't know much about these construction safety, but he still knows the general situation, such as helmets and scaffolding.
Scaffolding cannot be made of steel pipes like in the previous life. Xiao Qi thought that there are a lot of bamboos in Song Dynasty, and ordered to purchase a large number of thick and strong bamboos to build scaffolding.
Let people make a lot of bamboo, and use it on the scaffold to lay the pedals for the craftsmen to stand on and construct.
He also drew the appearance of a hard hat, and ordered people to purchase a large number of hard hats made of thin rattan, and distribute them to all craftsmen on the construction site.
Xiao Qi didn't sleep for two days and one night, so he seized the time to discuss and formulate many safety rules and regulations with those old craftsmen, and issued them immediately and asked these craftsmen to implement them immediately.
Numerous old craftsmen admire Xiao Qi's various possible dangerous safety issues, especially when Xiao Qi raises a question, he quickly gives a very appropriate solution.
This made those craftsmen astonished, feeling that Xiao Qi was already at the level of a master craftsman just because of his attainments in craftsman. In addition to being in awe of his identity, he also respected and loved Xiao Qi like a teacher.
As Xiao Qi stayed on the construction site for more than a month, many hidden dangers that he discovered before were resolved one by one.
Of course, the rules are set, but those construction workers are not used to it after all, and there are always people who make mistakes and forget to wear hard hats.
Xiao Qi had no choice but to adopt the method of his previous life and send some other people as supervisors to patrol the construction site to correct irregularities.
As various loopholes were gradually filled, many omissions that were not thought of during the discussion were discovered during construction and solutions were found.
The construction of the first higher education institution in the Song Dynasty was accelerated rapidly, and the cement solidified quickly. It was the first time for the craftsmen to build such a house, and their enthusiasm was very high.
Almost 20 days and less than a month, one layer can be built, and the quality is very good without any problems.
Because the teaching building has a relatively large span of classrooms, Xiao Qi only dared to build three floors at most.
The current technology is still too poor, Xiao Qi dare not build on this kind of prefabricated board building that has been eliminated in the previous life.
After all, a house used as a classroom requires a lot of space. If the span is higher, Xiao Qi is worried that problems will occur.
The dormitories of the students are all built on five floors because the rooms are small.
What confuses the craftsmen the most is that Xiao Qi designed a circle of steel bars around the roofs of the student dormitory buildings and teaching buildings, two feet above the edge of the buildings, and directly connected to the bottom and buried them in the ground.
After inquiring, I found out that this is a lightning protection device designed by King Zhenbei to prevent these high-rise buildings from being struck by lightning and causing accidents during thunderstorms.
Now that the lightning rod has been used, Xiao Qi no longer conceals it, in order to reduce the sudden appearance of high-rise buildings from being struck by lightning.
Xiao Qi also built four tower-like buildings that were much taller than the buildings in the college on the high places around the college, and erected two feet long iron rods with thick arms on them to attract lightning and prevent the college from Buildings in are frequently struck by lightning.
As the world's first higher education institution, Xiao Qi designed many majors for this academy.
Needless to say, machining is a must. The school was originally established to cultivate such technical talents.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering has become the largest department in the college, and is divided into fitters, mechanical maintenance, principles of steam engines, principles of mechanical transmission, and various majors derived from steam engines.
Of course, rubber products have also been independently created a specialty, specializing in the development of various sealing rings, and studying how to make these sealing rings more durable and effective.
At the same time, they are also encouraged to study some other rubber products.
In addition, Xiao Qi also specially opened many majors related to the secrets of the Changsheng Battalion, such as navigation, weapon design, firing principles of muskets and cannons, and steam ship design principles.
Of course, these professional students are all selected from the Great Song Foundry Bureau. After various assessments, some young craftsmen and Changsheng Battalion soldiers who have absolutely passed the test of loyalty.
Xiao Qi has long made requirements for such students. It doesn't matter whether the skills are good or bad. Skills can be taught, and loyalty is an iron target.
After rigorous assessment, if the loyalty is not up to the standard, even if you are a wizard, you will not be allowed to come into contact with these most secret technologies, even if you are a relative of the emperor.
Xiao Qi's "Da Song Advanced Technical College" is still in full swing, and the news has already spread throughout the Song Dynasty.
Most people don't know what kind of school this is.
Those scholars didn't know much about the purpose of this school that was spread throughout the Song Dynasty. They only heard that it was a school for imparting knowledge of craftsmen.
So the Confucian scholars are also relieved, because they heard that the students from this school cannot directly enter the official career. At most, those thieves in the army will be selected to learn some craftsman knowledge.
For Confucian scholars, as long as you don't compete with them for the path to official career, no matter how well you study in an institution, it is not considered orthodox, and no matter how well you are a craftsman, you are still a lowly and inferior person.
Of course Xiao Qi would not compete with them at this time.
He will not be so stupid as to challenge the stereotypes that people have formed for thousands of years.
This kind of thing that has been rooted in people's bones, you can only change it little by little, and it is impossible to change it every time.
Even if you kill a lot of people, it's just making people give in on the surface because of fear. The real change of mind must be to let people see the benefits of this thing.
And let most people know that this thing is indeed better than what they were obsessed with before, in order to reverse people's thoughts.
It will take a lot of time to complete the "Da Song Advanced Technical College", Xiao Qi estimates that it will take more than a year to complete it.
For this reason, Xiao Qi returned to Lin'an City, and began to study the enrollment matters in his palace. What kind of students to choose to enter this academy became his most concerned issue.
Of course, the teachers who teach these students are the essence of this school.
After much deliberation, Xiao Qi decided to use the method of improving salary to encourage those senior craftsmen to impart the technical knowledge of the bottom of the box that he didn't want to tell others.
For this reason, Xiao Qi formulated a teacher assessment system, after those senior craftsmen were selected to give lectures.
There will be more people to evaluate them, and the evaluation will be based on the satisfaction of the students, the satisfaction of the college with their knowledge explanations, and the most important thing is whether these senior craftsmen sincerely teach what they have learned all their lives.
Xiao Qi spent a lot of money this time, dividing the teachers of the academy into many classes.
The first category is that after the start of the college, all the trainees and teachers are the same, all at the level of specially-appointed lecturers.
That is, you used to be a leader in various industries, and the college paid you to impart knowledge.
After a period of assessment, some of these specially-appointed lecturers were valued by the academy. They felt that this senior craftsman was not only skilled, but also suitable to be a teacher. He could pass on his knowledge to the students very well without any concealment.
Such a teacher will be hired by the college as an official lecturer of the college, and the official position is directly from the sixth grade.
If the craftsman's original official position was or exceeded Cong Liupin, he would be promoted to another level and appointed as the deputy director or director-level lecturer of the college.
He was very attentive in imparting knowledge, and the knowledge he passed on was the absolute secret knowledge of Da Song. Such a lecturer also met the standards in various selections.
Then he will become a professor or associate professor of the college, with official positions ranging from fifth rank to fourth rank.
More importantly, once hired by the college as professors or lecturers, these people will enjoy lifelong treatment, unlike those officials and craftsmen with official positions, who are said to return home when they are old.
That is to say, the treatment enjoyed by these people in the academy is for life, and they have been enjoying such treatment until their death.
As soon as this salary was announced, those senior craftsmen who had the opportunity to become student teachers were overjoyed, and they were all gearing up to win this opportunity to be a lecturer.
Of course, Xiao Qi also thought about one more thing, that is, in this era, there are many senior craftsmen who are not literate at all, and they are not good at speech.
He specially set aside a position for such a senior craftsman, named it the special associate professor of the college, and it was also for life.
They do not hold positions in the school. Although the position is lifelong, their treatment is halved.
But they don't need to stay in the academy, they can do what they usually do, but when the academy teaches what they are good at, they are invited to give demonstrations to the students.
Although they are stupid and can't speak, those students can ask what they don't understand. In this way, they can explain to the students while demonstrating, and the students can still learn what they need to learn.
Xiao Qi wasted too much time and a lot of his brain cells were exhausted before the matter of recruiting students and teaching teachers was settled.
But the most important thing, Xiao Qi did not forget.
How could this highest university in the world lack the training of military talents for the Ever Victory Camp?
To become a military power is what Xiao Qi most hopes to do, otherwise what he is doing now will be turned into the spoils of other people who advocate plundering the nation.
For this reason, he selected a teaching building in a corner of the college, which is specially used as a military academy for training the army and navy.
These trainees are grass-roots officers selected from the Changsheng Battalion, various armies and naval divisions. After coming here for more systematic training, they return to the army for promotion and reuse.
Sometimes, Xiao Qi himself finds it funny that he just set up an academy, and he has almost taught the most cutting-edge technology and various high-level skills of this era.
If I set up cooking and excavator majors in this college, even if I moved back to my previous life, it would be considered the most comprehensive comprehensive college!
Xiao Qi hated the medical conditions of this era.
He who studied medicine in his previous life considered it over and over again, and finally decided to set up a medical major in the college.
Of course, such a shocking thing as surgery cannot be taught to ordinary colleges for the time being. The college hired several old Chinese medicine practitioners to teach for the college.
Xiao Qi quietly selected many sergeants with medical talents from the army to study medicine, and set up a separate class for them, called battlefield first aid and bandaging.
These people have seen scenes of severed limbs flying and corpses strewn across the field on the battlefield, so it is necessary to teach them some simple surgical operations.
For example, the location of important blood vessels and nerves in the human body, and the most reasonable and effective treatment for what kind of parts of the human body are injured, were all compiled by Xiao Qi.
It can be said that Xiao Qi has compiled many technical books, but only this medical textbook is the one he puts the most effort into compiling.
After all, this medical specialty is what Xiao Qi knew best in his previous life, and it is also what he is best at, and no one in this world is more authoritative than him.
After several months of writing, Xiao Qi wrote all the things he learned in his previous life, from the basic medicine he just came into contact with, to the things he learned before time travel.
And Xiao Qi decided to teach this subject himself until he cultivates someone who has fully mastered this knowledge and can replace him to teach students.
Time passed quickly. After a year of construction, the college has been completed, and the selection of lecturers and students has been completed.
On the first day of school, the Supreme Emperor Zhao Gou and Emperor Zhao Shen all attended the opening ceremony.
Xiao Qi also very wisely hired Zhao Gou as the honorary principal of the college, Zhao Shen as the principal, and he himself became the executive vice-principal as the general manager of the school.
The fact that both Zhao Gou and Zhao Shen became the principals of this academy directly caused a sensation in Song Dynasty.
For those scholars, the students of this academy are so happy and awesome, this damn has directly become a disciple of the Son of Heaven!
This kind of treatment can only be given to those outstanding scholars who have passed five trials and killed six generals every three years, and the few remaining scholars who have passed the palace examination and are known as Jinshi in the palace examination can get the title.
