People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 371 The civil officials are going crazy with envy!!

Even the places where these students eat are so luxurious, not to mention their accommodation.

So even if Sofia hadn't said that the place would be very luxurious, everyone was already mentally prepared.

Everyone even felt that there was no need to look at it again, as they could already feel that the place must be very eye-catching.

That place must have created a scene that everyone envied and was jealous of.

But these civil servants seemed worried, or rather, unwilling to give up.

They just wanted to go and take a look.

Only when they have truly given up will they feel that they should be envious and jealous.

The craftsmen outside didn't know what to say at this moment.

They only know that in such a good environment, no matter what the reason is, they must devote all their talents.

No matter what the reason is, I must share my so-called unique skills with others.

Because they see one thing - that is, no matter what achievements they make in this place, it will be something they can be proud of in the future.

Even without so-called subsidies or rewards, just based on the environment, they feel they should do so.

They even felt that they had let down the environment here.

Then do I still have the dignity to live on?

There is no face to live at all.

At this moment they even thought that they would have to work hard in this place for the rest of their lives.

So they looked at each other, especially those who initially thought that coming to this place might not end well.

They didn't expect much at first.

Because of what?
The craftsmen, or artisan households, already understood one thing very well when their registration was divided.

This is all I can live like this for the rest of my life.

They even feel that it will be impossible for them to achieve success and fame like those scholars in their lifetime.

Unlike those scholars, who passed the imperial examination and could then return home and not even have to bow when they met the county magistrate.

When meeting the county magistrate, he can chat and laugh with him.

Even the county magistrate had to speak to them politely.

Because the county magistrate didn't know whether this scholar would get a better ranking in the future.

Will I be appreciated by the emperor one day and become a high-ranking official?

Why are these people so polite to scholars?

Why can a person who has only studied to become a scholar be on par with officials who are in charge of tens of thousands of people?
Because these officials all know that these scholars have a future.

Because these people knew that these scholars might get a better ranking in the exam.

You may even become their immediate superior.

Even if these scholars did nothing, there would always be people trying to curry favor with them.

During every festival, people would visit his home with gifts.

It is euphemistically called a visit.

The reason is to take care of you.

They say that as local officials, we must treat these people in this way.

But why wouldn’t these officials come to welcome me?
Why is it that even though I work so hard and have honed my skills to such a good level, making everyone who asks me to make furniture for their home very happy, why is there no one who comes to compliment me?

Because people know that even if you carve wood into flowers, it won't be a great achievement.

But those who are educated can do it.

Those scholars don't need to work so hard, and in fact, as long as they pass the exam, they will not suffer any injustice in the future.

And what can these craftsmen do even if they have the best skills?

Still inferior.

When they thought of what had happened to them, they couldn't help but feel so much grievance in their hearts.

Because they also have eyes.

These people have seen too much human nature and too many employers looking down on them while doing business.

So what if their stuff is good?

So I have a very good understanding of human nature.

Especially now when I see these civil servants and scholars, and the jealousy and envy they show towards me and others.

Why are these people jealous and envious?

It is because they believe that all these things should be enjoyed by them, and not by craftsmen like them.

Since Emperor Taizu established the household registration management system more than a hundred years ago.

These craftsmen have never been treated like they are today.

Even those students who did not pass the exam had two taels of silver in their hands as travel expenses.

Let them go home so that their trip won’t be in vain.

They witnessed the prosperity of the capital.

They saw what Imperial University of Peking looked like.

They know what their efforts should look like.

They know that if they work hard enough, they can get to this place.

It's not like before, even if you work hard all your life, you are just a craftsman.

So at this time, many people’s goals have actually been achieved.

Even many people, even if they didn't come here, felt that it was enough just because they felt the respect that Sophia and Chen Han had for craftsmen like them.

If you can get such respect in your life, what else can you ask for?
Many craftsmen no longer had such happiness on their faces at this time, but were crying with joy.

This is a real respect.

It even feels like I have found a soulmate.

Only someone like the Duke can truly respect himself.

Only people like the Duke know how to make the most of their own strengths.

Even at this moment, they finally understood.

Even if we don't have the invention patent that Sophia mentioned, as long as we have this respect and as long as we are treated like this, we are willing to give out our technology for free.

Compared with these respects, what does this unique skill mean?
On the contrary, the scholars and officials looked so grief-stricken that every craftsman was extremely excited.

Because they finally defeated the scholars.

Because they finally saw envy and jealousy in the eyes of these scholars.

Because they finally saw that these majority people also showed so much helplessness towards themselves.

This kind of helplessness has been shown too many times in them.

At this time, the craftsmen were whispering to each other.

Even though many craftsmen were envious of the students who entered the school, they did not feel any jealousy or hatred.

Because they know that those people are their role models.

Only if I work harder next year, maybe I can get in.

I am even more qualified to be here than those who have not taken action.

I know how good it is here.

I know what benefits I will enjoy if I pass the exam in the future.

So I will work very hard.

And those who have not taken this step;

Those who could not believe that Imperial University of Peking had such excellent craftsmen would have to stay where they were forever.

So they have confidence.

More than 10,000 craftsmen came this time from all over the world.

But how many craftsmen in the world have to start with a million?

They have already won 99% of the people. So they believe they have a chance to come to this place.

They even believed that they would be able to enter this place soon in the future.

Someone said: "Miss Sophia and Mr. Chen respect us so much. If we don't work hard, who can we be worthy of?"

Everyone nodded.

The man continued, "I believe that many of you must be like me before, thinking that this place must be a scam and there is no such thing in the world."

When these words were spoken, many people lowered their heads.

"Why did I come to this place? Because I heard that the capital is very good now, there are many rich people, even if I come here, it won't be a waste of time.

Because I'm here, I can get more work.

I could make a few pieces of furniture in the homes of wealthy families in the capital, and that would be enough to earn enough money to go back home.

But I didn’t expect that I would receive such good treatment.

I didn't even think that one day I would be respected like this.

Now that I have received the two taels of silver, I don’t believe that I won’t be able to get in next year?

I don't envy them, I just sincerely feel that they are better than me, but I will come again next year and I must get in here.

I want to enjoy this respect!

I must live up to the respect that the Duke and Miss Sophia have shown me.

No one has ever respected me like this in my life! !

For this respect!

I will risk my life to get in!!”

When these words came out, many people's eyes were red.

When it comes to this respect, they feel very touched in their hearts.

Then more craftsmen agreed, "Yes, let's fight again next year."

"We must become classmates next year!"

"After I go back this year, even if I don't make a penny, I will hone my skills."

"I want to enter the Imperial University of Peking, where I want to shine."

"I will submit my unique skills to the Invention Patent Office of the Imperial University. I want my invention to bring more benefits to the world and live up to the respect and esteem that the Duke has for me."

This sentence resonates very much.

After hearing this sentence, many people feel that this is their own endorsement.

Seeing how excited these craftsmen were, the civil servants no longer dared to look down on them psychologically.

Because they have made this mistake before.

They looked down on these craftsmen, but then they found out that the Duke respected them very much.

They discovered that the conditions at Imperial University were better than anything they had ever encountered in their entire lives.

I am not qualified to look down on these craftsmen.

Maybe these craftsmen will do better than me after graduation.

It is even possible that people can earn more money without having to work harder.

But our own people are worried about making this money.

Therefore, even officials once thought that they were literati and superior to others.

But at this moment I don’t dare to feel that way.

They even knew that they might have to respect the craftsmen who made furniture for their homes more in the future.

Because one day, these craftsmen might become students of the Imperial University of Peking.

Then after he came out, he became his immediate boss.

If you have ever offended such a person and he took revenge on you, would you be able to bear it?

I can't stand it at all.

In other words, at this moment, the officials had actually begun to feel fearful.

Perhaps this trend has already begun to change.

Even the work style of officials has begun to change, let alone ordinary people in the society.

Do they dare to look down on a craftsman at will?

What if this craftsman suddenly entered the Imperial University one day, graduated three years later, and became a county magistrate in his hometown?
If there is such an atmosphere, it will change the whole world's view of craftsmen.

Craftsmen no longer need to live such a humble life.

They have the confidence to invent more things.

The social atmosphere will change accordingly.

Say something very unpleasant.

Why is it that every change in trend is accompanied by a certain industry making money?

No one looked up to Taobao at one time, and people thought it was a scam. But after Taobao started making money, Jack Ma suddenly became famous.

Many people used to look down on Taobao, but now, many people open stores online.

Those anchors were once looked down upon and were called liars.

But suddenly one day, the anchor made a lot of money, and many new anchors appeared in droves.

In this mixed crowd, many infuriating phenomena have emerged.

This is the trend.

Now Chen Han wants to start a new trend.

Let each of you know to respect these craftsmen.

Respecting craftsmen means respecting technology.

Respecting science and technology can promote development.

Just like what Chen Han has done now, setting up the Invention Patent Office, that’s exactly what he meant.

Under the leadership of Sophia, Emperor Wanli brought civil and military officials into the dormitory where the students lived.

Just as Sophia said, twelve people live in one yard, and each room can accommodate four people.

The facilities inside are very good, as each room has four bedrooms and a living room.

Under Sophia's leadership, everyone went into the dormitory yard for a visit.

As soon as you enter the large courtyard, you can see that the house is in the shape of a concave U.S. letter "C".

There is a courtyard after entering the gate, with a room or a suite on each side.

Because after entering, there are four bedrooms and a living room, just like the private rooms.

Each person has his or her own independent bedroom of at least 20 square meters.

The bedroom is equipped with everything needed for living.

Even tooth powder is provided for you.

Sophia introduced: "Everything in the living facilities inside will be cleaned by a dedicated person.

As long as you don't make it too dirty and messy, you don't have to worry.

The college will employ a large number of cleaning staff to ensure that each of your rooms is clean and tidy.

Even in the houses where you live, there will be special people to deliver everyone's water to your homes.

Your task is to ensure that you have enough time every day to learn better skills, communicate with different people, and invent and create more good things.

The college will provide you with sufficient living necessities, including food, accommodation, transportation and living allowance, so that each of you will have no worries at all.

Let you live well, eat well and use good things.

Create more good things in a good environment.

This is the teaching philosophy of Imperial University of Peking.”

But after these words were spoken, the craftsmen clapped their hands.

Because no one would treat them so well, even their own parents, when could they give them such a good environment, they would never have such a good environment in their lifetime...
