As soon as Zhong Jinwei finished speaking, his guards all laughed together with him. Ai Nengqi, one of the four minors, said seriously to the five Jinyi guards: "My uncle is not that kind of person!"
The five Jinyi guards blushed at their laughter and hurriedly apologized to Zhong Jinwei. At the same time, they realized in their hearts why Zhongxing Hou was surrounded by four children as guards. They were all Zhongxing Hou's nephews.
Zhong Jinwei was not angry at their misunderstanding. This was the original official atmosphere, and it was normal for them to have such thoughts.
At this time, they had arrived at the door of the mansion. As he dismounted, Zhong Jinwei said to the five Jinyi guards: "You still have an important task, which is to teach the new sergeants some commonly used words and numbers in the army, but it will definitely be better to use the old-fashioned method.
You can’t teach it. If you visit and experience the teaching model in my mansion, it will help your teaching.”
After Zhong Jinwei received clear answers from the five Jinyi guards, he turned to look at them and said, "This is why I have to choose the five of you who must be eloquent and well-read."
After finishing speaking, he said to Yu Changjian who was on duty behind him: "Take them to listen to Uncle Yu's lectures and let them experience it."
Yu Changjian was inexplicably excited that there were actually five Jinyi Guardsmen among his father's students, and he quickly agreed.
Zhong Jinwei went back to his study, knowing that Archie must be there.
Character can determine achievement, and Zhong Jinwei learned this from Archie.
Archie's perseverance, carefulness, and ability to sum up allowed her to carve exquisite statues on walnut cores with just a knife. If she were to live in future generations, she would not have to worry about food and clothing.
Sure enough, Zhong Jinwei was right. Archie was in his study, playing with the transparent glassware he gave Archie and doing some of the simplest chemical experiments.
As soon as Zhong Jinwei opened the door and walked in, he said with a smile: "Archie, if you do this, sooner or later my study will be reimbursed by you. Later, I will give you the entire cement and glass house to make a room specifically for your experiments.
Experiment as you wish."
When Archi saw that it was Zhong Jinwei who had returned, he quickly put down what he was doing, greeted Zhong Jinwei and said, "Husband, a gentleman's words are hard to catch up with!"
Zhong Jinwei understood what A Qi meant. He was always busy with court matters, so he could take care of his family affairs.
He smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will write down the building requirements for the laboratory and let Uncle Yu follow them. In addition, you'd better train a few assistants and do everything yourself. You have to learn to be a husband."
Do you understand the method?"
Archie took Zhong Jinwei's hand and sat down on his chair, then asked: "Husband, what are you studying?"
Zhong Jinwei directly pulled Archie into his arms and said to her seriously: "Grab the big ones and let go the small ones. You plan things out and do the most important things. Leave some preliminary things to others, and you are responsible for observing and recording."
, Summary. Only in this way will it not consume too much of your time and the progress will be faster."
Upon hearing this, Archi nodded and said, "I understand, husband, I'll help you."
"Ah, what can you help me with?" Zhong Jinwei wondered if Archie had said the opposite and should be helping her, but he didn't have time to do any chemical experiments!
"My husband cannot come back to the study so early just to explain this matter to the slave family!" After Archie finished speaking, he looked at Zhong Jinwei with a small mouth and smiled.
Zhong Jinwei acted shamelessly and kissed Archie's face suddenly before saying, "It doesn't matter if I suddenly miss you."
Archi smiled and struggled out of Zhong Jinwei's arms, and sat down on a chair next to Zhong Jinwei sweetly in his heart. Then he looked back with a smile and said, "Hubby, just say whatever you want to write."
Zhong Jinwei was speechless, it seemed that Archie really understood him.
So, he stopped making trouble and dictated some key points that the political commissar should pay attention to and some mathematical knowledge, and asked Archie to write it down and hand it over to the five Jinyi Guardsmen later.
After all, the simple mathematical knowledge required in the military is different from what I learned in my own country. Otherwise, I would have just asked Uncle Yu to give them basic teaching materials.
Seeing that there was still time, I dictated the construction requirements for the cement and glass laboratory that Archie needed, and drew some experimental benches with my own hands.
At noon, Zhong Jinwei had lunch in his house and told Archie to take a nap to feel better before returning to the capital camp.
As soon as he left the house, Zhong Jinwei handed a stack of paper written by Archie to the nearest Jinyi Guardsman and said: "You guys have learned these first. If you don't understand anything, you can ask my four nephews. They
I’ve basically learned everything.”
The five Jinyiwei captains had already known the identity of the fourth primary school before, so when they heard Zhong Jinwei said that he wanted to ask the fourth primary school for advice, they did not resist and were even a little happy. This was a good opportunity to climb the big tree of Zhongxing Hou.
One of the Jinyi guards thought of a question and asked Zhong Jinwei for instructions: "Master Marquis, the four young masters are with you. When will I have the opportunity to ask for advice?"
Zhong Jinwei thought about it and said to the fourth child: "From now on, the four of you, in groups of two, will take turns staying at the New Army camp in the morning to supervise the military discipline in the camp for me. Do you understand?"
When the four children heard this, they all nodded happily.
Zhong Jinwei wanted to take the opportunity to cultivate their experience in the New Army so that when they grow up, their understanding of the New Army's philosophy and firearms operations will be ingrained and even engraved in their bones. Only in this way will they become the future leaders of the firearms era.
An outstanding general.
After arriving at the Admiral's Yamen in the capital, Zhong Jinwei asked five imperial guards to go down first to digest and absorb the gains of the morning.
After he sat in the Yamen, he felt very hot and couldn't help but said: "This weather is really getting hotter and hotter."
Gu Baichuan laughed and answered him: "Master Hou, the weather is about to reach the hot season."
Of course Zhong Jinwei knew that the weather was getting hot. At this moment, he suddenly missed the air conditioning and cold drinks of later generations. In such a hot weather, it would be much cooler if there was an air conditioner. And if there were popsicles and ice cream, eating one at this time would be so refreshing.
ah!
In fact, his yamen was well ventilated and quite cool, but he had just come back from outside, so he felt hot.
When Zhong Jinwei thought about it, he suddenly remembered that when he was reading a time travel book on the Internet, he seemed to have seen that saltpeter could be used to make popsicles.
As soon as he thought about it, his heart felt itchy, and the delicious taste of the popsicles became clear in his mind.
Anyway, he had the resources at hand, so he could give it a try. So, he first drew some equipment and asked Gu Baichuan to find someone to make it.
There is no need to worry about the saltpeter used for cooling. This is the capital camp and he is in charge of it. There is some in the inventory. Just ask his subordinates to transfer some.
The fourth child watched Zhong Jinwei busy with this and was a little curious. The youngest Ai Nengqi couldn't help but asked: "Uncle, what are you doing?"
Zhong Jinwei touched Ai Nengqi's head and said with a smile, "I'll make some delicious food for you."
When he said this, his guards immediately became curious. Can saltpeter make something delicious?
Zhong Jinwei looked at the white sunshine outside, and suddenly thought that the new army must be very hot after training. Their barracks seemed not to have done enough in this regard.
Therefore, Zhong Jinwei decided to go over and make a inspection, and also see how they were doing when he ordered them to take a nap at noon.
He walked outside the New Army barracks and first stopped the soldiers on duty outside from making any noise. Then he approached the barracks to listen for any movement. He found no voices, but he also didn't hear a single snore.
This made Zhong Jinwei feel a little strange. In a group of big and thick men, none of them snores?
So, he secretly stood outside the window to watch.
It's a good thing that he didn't think about it, but one look at it made Zhong Jinwei stay there, and even felt like vomiting.
