Chapter 31 Knowledge, ideas! Arkham Academy!
In the square in front of the teaching area, all the freshmen and teachers stood up, and Liszt, as the principal, came to the stage to speak.
"I think most of the people here don't know me yet, and I'm curious who this guy is. Nowadays, many people call me Mr. Arkham, but my name is Liszt. However, no matter Mr. Arkham or Liszt, it doesn't matter. The name is just a title. What is important is what I can bring to you! This is also the purpose of your standing here."
"There is no wealth, no reputation, no treasure here...but there is everything here, because there is knowledge here!"
"What is knowledge?"
"Knowledge is nothing for some people, but for some people, it is more valuable than life. Don't ask me what knowledge is, because your attitude determines its value. I will only tell you that knowledge changes destiny, and knowledge is the ladder of human progress."
"Next, you will learn here and find your answers. Find out what knowledge is. When you figure it out, don't forget to tell me."
"Remember, Arkham College, there are no nobles, no civilians, no slaves, no race, and knowledge, and everyone is equal. Here, no one can deprive you of your right to study. If so, please tell me, I will defend your rights."
The speech ended, followed by the entrance exam, the paperwork exam, and the body side.
The content of the test is simple. Judging from Liszt, it is just a test question from kindergarten to elementary school. Even so, most of the students still scratch their heads.
"Teacher Meryl, your task is very heavy!" Liszt said to the tall female teacher.
"Other teachers will help, right?" Meryl smiled and was full of charm, while other male teachers were fascinated.
"certainly!"
"Don't worry, Teacher Meryl!"
The college teachers are divided into different groups according to the level of knowledge and focus of their mastery. There are six people responsible for the most basic literacy education, with Meryl as the group leader.
Meryl was introduced by Clow, who came from the Kingdom of Goa and had rich experience in tutoring aristocratic children, but a woman like her would always cause some trouble and was excluded by a certain noble lady and had to leave Goa and.
Like Meryl, other teachers and scholars are all people who have not had a good life, otherwise they would not have accepted the invitation from the Arkham Chamber of Commerce to come to this remote and dangerous island!
The situation on the body side is much better than the literary test. People in this world generally have physical fitness that is better than the other world. With a little exercise, they can easily break the world record of another world, such as sprinting, long-distance running, weightlifting and other single-person events.
After the entrance examination, he and the teachers and staff held a meeting to introduce Old John and Old Bud to them, and appointed Old Bud as the logistics supervisor, and Old John as the academic director, mainly responsible for physical education teaching.
As for adjusting different teaching plans based on different grades, preparations have been done long ago, and Liszt doesn't need to worry about it.
But everything is difficult at the beginning.
Lister became busy, coordinating the relationships of various departments, formulating relevant charters, checking for shortcomings and filling in the gaps, supplementing school rules, solving newly discovered problems, etc. He also crossed the river by feeling the stones. It was not until the end of October that all aspects of the college work was on the right track.
In the principal's office, Liszt looked through the college's textbooks and frowned. The books used in the college now come from the Kingdom of Goya, with aristocratic views and advocating the celestial dragon people, the world government, and the rule of aristocratic people.
"Meryl, call the teachers you use to have a meeting."
Meryl, who has worked as a secretary part-time job, is no longer surprised by this. Since the start of school, Liszt will have to hold meetings if he finds any problems. Now everyone doesn’t hold one meeting a day, and they feel that something is missing.
After a while, all the teachers sat at the conference table in the office.
"We need a new textbook, aristocratic textbook, which is not suitable for the students of the college. Most of them come from civilian families. So, I hope everyone can compile a textbook together, starting with reading, writing and literacy."
The teachers remained silent. Anyway, the rebuttal was invalid. Lister was the biggest ruler here. Everyone should do whatever he said.
"If you write a textbook, you need to reprint it?" said Meryl.
"I will be responsible for those who don't have to worry about. You just need to write the textbooks. Of course, I will also participate. The only requirement is that it must be easy to understand and close to reality."
"yes!"
After the meeting, Liszt contacted Clow by phone.
“I need a printing company!”
"President, we have invested a lot of money in Bird Island, and it will be difficult to get a reward in the short term!" Clow said.
Clow has always had a lot of complaints about Liszt attaching importance to the construction of the college. Not only him, but also the teachers and staff within the college, they all felt incredible. After all, even the nobles in the East China Sea do not attach as much importance to knowledge and education as Liszt.
"Clow, do you know what the most powerful force in the world is?" Liszt asked.
Clow was silent.
"Physical skills? Swordsmanship? Weapons? Demon fruits? None of them, thoughts, thoughts are the most powerful and awesome power in the world. Life will die, including you and me, but thoughts will not, where does thoughts come from, knowledge! This is a batch of seeds, even if there is only one, it will grow vigorously, and it will be a surprise."
"Okay, you are the boss, I will contact you, but the printing agencies, newspapers, and government personnel are generally involved..."
With Clow's IQ, he naturally understood what it means to say that Liszt wanted to have a printing company instead of finding someone to print.
Things to print must be prohibited!
"Get two printing machines and find a few printing workers. If someone supervises it on the land, then get it on the ship. In short, this is a valuable transaction. If we are skilled in technology, we can try to make our own newspapers in the chamber of commerce."
Liszt rubbed his chin. In this era of slow and lack of information transmission, newspapers control the direction of public opinion. Making an internal newspaper in the chamber of commerce can effectively control internal thoughts, unite combat effectiveness, and have a good way. As long as it is not sold to the outside world, it should not attract the attention of the world government.
You can put newspapers first, and editing textbooks is the top priority.
"Six styles, superhuman skills to control and utilize the body, must undergo hell-style training and have a strong enough body to learn. First, iron blocks and paper paint..."
Old John walked back and forth in a wide dojo paved with stones, narrating one by one.
With the quality of this group of students, they naturally did not reach the level of learning the Six Styles, but Guina was exceptional. When she came to the island, Old John specially trained her.
