This Lord is Very Scientific
Chapter 476 - 413: Build a University? Wishful Thinking!
Basic education?
What is the basic education in Great Wilderness City?
Simply put, Lin Ke wants the children to know who they are, where they come from, where they will go, and how they will go.
Life, death, and what lies between.
You can be born into a farmer’s family, but your ambition might be to become a doctor.
You can be born into an upper-class family at City Hall, but your ambition might be to sell sweet potatoes.
Both are possible.
But regardless of the ideal, one must know the reason.
Why do you want to be an official? Is it to make money? For power? For vanity? For your parents? Or to repay the villagers who once helped you, to make them prosperous?
Why do you want to farm? Is it for fun? To spite someone? For the family’s two acres? Or is it because of love and passion?
This is what Lin Ke wants the teachers to teach.
In addition, children should be taught what this world is, how it exists, the types of strengths and weaknesses, and so on.
At the same time, they should train their thinking through subjects like mathematics and learn culture from subjects like literature, history, and geography.
No matter what Great Wilderness City actually achieves, the scene described in Lin Ke’s words has already shocked everyone.
Especially...
University!
When children understand what they want to do and love in the future, they will continue studying that at university.
At that time, a large number of students who have already experienced enlightenment education and basic education will change careers from [Scholar] and [Knight] to the profession they desire.
Driven by love, nature, and interest, a large number of professionals will emerge.
These professionals are no longer forced by life or accidentally became professionals, but genuinely entered this profession out of love for it.
In this scenario, Nathan’s high-tier professionals will experience an explosive growth!
Undeniably, there will also be people who, for various reasons, do not choose the career they love.
But what Lin Ke wants to do is to set up a platform, then ensure the timeliness of policies and systems, continually improve relevant laws and regulations, and enhance the inspection and investigation systems to greatly stimulate the vitality of society.
"...Therefore, I will establish a university in Great Wilderness City! Named ’Great Wilderness Comprehensive University’! And invite strong figures from various industries to enter and teach, continuously creating talent for our Nathan!"
"Moreover, there are many ways to enter Great Wilderness University, such as passing through written and oral exams, or applying for two pure oral methods, recruiting people aged eighteen to two hundred to enter the university."
"At that time, our university will have teachers from various Star Realms, legendary, and even Dominator-level teachers teaching here! More countless professional teachers will teach! The students recruited will be from all the intelligent beings of all the planes including Nathan in the All Heavens Star Realm!"
"Continuously fed talent will help our Nathan become a stronger, better, and wealthier Main Plane. Our Nathan can also help more planes achieve leaping transitions! Helping the less developed after prospering first!"
Lin Ke’s passionate voice spread across the venue through the loudspeaker, even throughout the entire Nathan.
To be honest, his voice is not particularly melodious like Sophie’s, who can capture hearts just with her voice.
However, the content of his words is tantamount to casting a terrifying forbidden spell magic on the mind of every intelligent being in Nathan.
So... So great!
Many people didn’t know what to say.
Neither nobility nor commoners knew what to say.
If Lin Ke were a commoner, the nobles might think Lin Ke was daydreaming, like a toad lusting after a swan.
However, as a noble, Lin Ke is helping everyone... no, actually, Lin Ke is helping everyone, including the nobles!
Nobility, too, has distinctions.
According to Lin Ke’s statement, in the future, even the son of a Viscount, with effort, can access the education only a Count, or even a Marquis, or a Duke can reach.
Duke Lin Ke can already access the highest education.
Lin Ke and Rica’s child, as one might imagine, might even be directly taught by Insomnia Emperor.
The same goes for Lin Ke and Xiangnai’s, knowing that Xiangnai is a deity.
In such a scenario, Lin Ke still considers the broad lower class...
"Mr. Lin Ke, truly a great deity." At the venue, some commoners were crowded into the audience space, five or six people to a seat, moved to tears.
Not only these people, even the Insomnia Emperor was moved.
Lin Ke had mentioned these to him but hadn’t said so much because Lin Ke was busy planning the university, busy planning Great Wilderness City, and more.
And now, compared to Lin Ke, Insomnia Emperor only felt like one of those red dragons, black dragons, and the like reared by the Gula Royal Family, doing nothing but eating and sleeping.
He felt a bit of a failure as a King!
However, while both the lowest and highest levels were in shock, someone spoke up.
"Duke Lin Ke, I find this inappropriate."
A deep male voice sounded, obviously feigned.
"Oh? What’s inappropriate?" Lin Ke knew, the greatest resistance had arrived.
Compared to his previous speeches, the university is shaking the foundations of nobility!
Only the lower class people and lower small nobles, and that fraction of the highest echelon, including the Insomnia Emperor, would find Lin Ke’s measures favorable.
The lower class because they benefit, the Insomnia Emperor because of his broad perspective on the big picture.
Of course, they are all beneficiaries.
In essence, only some middle and upper-middle class nobles are harmed.
Their original education and opportunity are not much behind the top level.
In this situation, more opportunities and education for the lower class will squeeze their living space and interests.
Therefore, they are undoubtedly the ones most likely to resist!
"Can I ask where you are establishing your school? Where will the teachers come from? As far as I know, your Great Wilderness City doesn’t have that many powerful teachers; why should I let my child study at your school?"
The deep voice spoke.
At the same time, before Lin Ke could speak, someone else spoke up.
"Yeah! Why should we pay tuition? Many of us nobles have our own family tutors, oh, and of course, some country Viscounts supposedly can’t afford their own tutors."
The "country Viscount" in this person’s words was clearly referring to Lin Ke.
The Azanen Family did not have tutors. If it weren’t for Garoce inadvertently meeting Ove, Lin Ke would probably have invited the level-one [Tutor] from Parrot City back then.
"Our family bled for the Gula Kingdom; my ancestors fought for the Gula Kingdom... In the end, should my child sit in a classroom with commoners?"
"My family, with unparalleled glory..." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
One by one, nobles spoke up.
Whether overtly or subtly, they all spoke about one thing.
That is...
Build a university?
Dream on!
By building a university, you are insulting the glory of our nobility!
