Chapter 161 Ji Changxi Award! The manufacture of steam locomotives? (6K) (Ch 161)

【Research Awards! 】
【This is Chen Huaixin before. 】
【Something I have considered before.】
【”only.”】
【“At that time.”】
[“One who can truly be called a researcher.”]
[“There are only Ji Changxi and the children she brought with her.”]
[“The overall number is still too small!”]
[Chen Huaixin chose to suppress this matter for this reason.]
【after all.】
【Too few people.】
[It gives people a feeling of being appointed… no, it gives people a feeling of self-entertainment. ]
【And now. 】
【Because of the development of research and technical schools. 】
[Many students have actually produced their own research results. ]
[Even in the eyes of Chen Huaixin and Ji Changxi, she is still very immature. ]
【”But.”】
[“Not because of immaturity.”]
[“Just ignore the inspiration that burst out.”]
[“Only encourage and praise them.”]
【“Only in this way can they go further and further on this path.”】
[“The results of that research and development…can also benefit Yu Country!”]
[This is one of the reasons why Chen Huaixin wanted to establish a research award.]
【because.】
【I want to be personally received by him. 】
【It’s not that easy. 】
[You can get some awards, such as Academy Award, Newcomer Award, Creativity Award, etc.! ]
[This is an encouragement to the students! ]
【“This is the era now.”】
【“Fame and fortune.”】
[“The former will be valued more by everyone than the latter!”]
[“And this award is the best name!”]
【Chen Huaixin looked towards Ji Changxi.】
He didn’t explain much.
[But Ji Changxi has completely understood what he meant! ]
【“This award brings.”】
[“It should be more than just a name.”]
[“Being able to stand out among peers.”]
[“I can prove that I am more suitable for this path.”]
[“The imperial court should give them more support, right?”]
【Ji Changxi expressed his guess.】
【Chen Huaixin and the Prime Minister both laughed.】
【”Yes.”】
[“Your Highness Ji Changxi.”]
【“Rely on awards to discover talented students.”】
【“Then the court gave them more help.”】
[“This is also one of the purposes of your majesty’s plan to establish the award.”]
[The Prime Minister spoke directly.]
【Before this.】
[Your Majesty has discussed this matter with him.]
【because.】
【This matter.】
[Not just limited to students! ]
【Not just limited to schools! 】
【“Outside of school.”】
【“Among the common people.”】
【“If someone has made research results.”】
[“You can also compete for awards.”]
[“If they can win, they will also receive support from the imperial court!”]
[The Prime Minister continued to explain.]
【Although.】
【In the beginning.】
【He had doubts about this matter.】
[“Can ordinary people really compete with students? There is no point in including them, right?”]
[“Perhaps in the future, ordinary people who have not undergone systematic learning will no longer be able to win research awards, because they may not even understand the theory.”]
[“But now it’s different. We, including everyone else, are all groping for progress. Many things are still in their infancy. Geniuses may emerge from the common people who have not undergone systematic learning!”]
[This is how Chen Huaixin explained it to him at first.]
[If science develops to a certain level, it will naturally require systematic study before research results can be achieved. Otherwise, if you want to overturn something without even understanding the theory, you will only be laughed at.]
[In the knowledge in my mind, there have been such things before, because there are always people in the folks who say that they have verified a certain theory and overturned a certain hypothesis, but the academic cliques in the university are serious and they are unwilling to look at their proofs.]
[Then the superiors learned about this and had the proofs of these folk geniuses collected, and asked the professors to spend time to verify whether they were correct.]
[The result is naturally no one passed! ]
[On the contrary, it wasted a lot of professors’ time and energy! ]
【”but.”】
【“At present, the scientific system is not fully formed.”】
[“It is not impossible for someone from the private sector to achieve award-winning results.”]
[“Even if someone says that they dreamed about mathematical theorems, it’s not strange!”]
【Chen Huaixin is very clear about this.】
【so.】
[He would discuss this matter with the Prime Minister and ask the Cabinet to assist Ji Changxi and the school to get the award done.]
[After hearing the detailed explanation, Ji Changxi’s impatient expression turned into a bright smile.]
She knows it very well.
【This matter.】
[It will inevitably promote the rapid development of research! ]
[This is the future she hopes to see! ]
【”but.”】
【“Academy Award, Newcomer Award, Creativity Award.”】
[“These names are too common.”]
[“If only the school takes the lead in setting up these awards to recognize the progress of students, then there is nothing wrong with that.”]
[“But since the imperial court is taking the lead in this, it can’t just be a name like this!”]
【Ji Changxi expressed his own opinion.】
[She didn’t mean that the name of this award was bad.]
【Easy to understand.】
【Naturally it is appropriate.】
[But this does not match the status of the court! ]
[Because they sound useful…awards for self-entertainment in some places!]
[“This name is for schools and places.”]
[“To honor outstanding students and civilians.”]
[“The court is primarily responsible.”]
[“It is a major achievement in arithmetic, medicine, mechanics, biology, physics, etc.”]
[“You can’t participate in the selection just by researching a small invention.”]
【Chen Huaixin spoke.】
【He has no grudge against mathematicians.】
[Naturally, arithmetic will be included in the awards.]
[He also planned that the results of these awards must be groundbreaking. Otherwise, even if there is no award, he would not choose the tallest one among the short ones just to give the award! ]
【This is the only way to ensure the value of this award! 】
[“As for the name.”]
[“I started first.”]
[“I’m thinking of using the Dayu Research Award.”]
[“Or maybe the Emperor’s Research Award.”]
[“But then I thought these names were… a little too tacky.”]
【Chen Huaixin said with a smile.】
[The Prime Minister, who already knew the name of the award, looked at Ji Changxi with a little envy.]
[This caused Ji Changxi to have a bit of doubt on his face.]
[But before she could ask. ]
【Chen Huaixin’s voice sounded again.】
【”at last.”】
[“I decide.”]
[“Give this award the name of Ji Changxi.”]
【“Ji Changxi Award!”】
[“This is the best fit!”]
…
In the Golden Palace.
Look at the deduced future.
The ministers fell silent.
Everyone looked at Ji Changxi, one of the princesses, with envy.
Especially Ji Changwei.
The way she looked at Ji Changxi, the jealousy in her eyes was about to overflow!
Ji Changxi, who was being stared at by everyone, could no longer maintain his composure, and a rare blush appeared on his face!
She is always calm.
Shyness appeared for the first time!
“Ji Changxi Award.”
“It is indeed a very suitable name.”
“Because whether it’s arithmetic, mechanics, biology, chemistry, or anything else.”
“Basically all of them can be related to my fourth sister.”
“But naming the award after her…it’s really enviable!”
Ji Changling’s voice rang out.
Even a princess like her who loves to wield swords and guns knows very well what this means!
As long as this research award can guarantee its value as Chen Huaixin said, every achievement awarded will be a huge breakthrough.
Even if the Yu Kingdom is destroyed in the future, this award and its name will most likely continue to be passed down!
“That’s equal to.”
“The name of the fourth imperial sister.”
“It will be forever engraved in the long river of history!”
“It will never be forgotten by the world!”
“This… is even better than going down in history!”
The eldest princess Ji Changning also spoke at this time.
Even on her face.
I can’t stop being envious.
but.
Everyone knows.
The future Ji Changxi deserves it!
From developing paragliders based on hot air balloons, to the Dayu Research Institute, and how the Yu Kingdom has become so powerful.
This is all directly related to her!
“Just as Chen Huaixin said.”
“That name.”
“It’s the most suitable one!”
“Even if it’s called the Chen Huaixin Award, it won’t work!”
“Because the one who truly turned knowledge into practice and worked hard was the Fourth Princess!”
The fifth princess Ji Changqing also spoke very rarely.
Even she, who completely trusts Chen Huaixin and believes that everything Chen Huaixin does is right, thinks that this name is the most appropriate, and no one else would argue at all!
Even those officials from aristocratic families remained silent when faced with this matter.
Because this not only concerns the princess, but also the royal family, so we can’t just talk nonsense.
It’s because even if I want to talk nonsense or flatter, I don’t know what to say!
“Even Chen Huaixin is not as qualified as Ji Changxi!”
“Even if it’s refutation and sophistry.”
“What’s the point?!”
This is what the officials of the aristocratic families think.
When Wang Qianhe saw the scene deduced by the Jiantian Mirror, his first reaction was shock.
“You know.”
“This kind of award.”
“As long as you can keep your original intention.”
“That will surely be remembered forever!”
“But Chen Huaixin was so generous as to name the award after His Highness Ji Changxi.”
“He… is indeed worthy of being the ruler of a country!”
Wang Qianhe was impressed by Chen Huaixin’s broad-mindedness.
He knew very well that if Chen Huaixin wanted to put his name on this award, naturally no one would be able to say anything.
Because even though Ji Changxi is more qualified, it doesn’t mean that Chen Huaixin is no good. The source of the research knowledge all comes from him!
But Chen Huaixin didn’t care and still chose the most appropriate name for the award.
This made him feel so emotional that he didn’t know what to say!
“certainly.”
“There’s just one small problem.”
“Name the award after a person.”
“If that person is still alive, isn’t that a bit bad?”
“It’s fun to think about giving the Ji Changxi Award to Ji Changxi.”
Wang Qianhe thought in his heart.
However, there is such a problem.
But it won’t affect anything.
“after all.”
“The award.”
“It’s better to rely on strength!”
…
[Same month.]
【About how to handle the coroner’s affairs. 】
[Naturally, it was implemented immediately.]
[Because the Minister of Justice is keeping a close eye on it. ]
[This incident and the backlash it caused were naturally presented to him at the first opportunity.]
【”really.”】
[“Just as your majesty said.”]
【“Use stories to attract people’s attention.”】
[“Let the storm and public opinion subside.”]
[“Naturally, people will be willing to look at the school’s major and its related industries!”]
[The Minister of Justice heaved a sigh of relief.]
[Of course, it is impossible for the public opinion to calm down so quickly. ]
【But the trend is decreasing every day. 】
【He was finally able to feel relieved. 】
【certainly.】
【Among them. 】
[Naturally, some people are still dissatisfied.]
[But this kind of thing cannot satisfy everyone. It just needs to ensure fairness and make the majority of people willing to accept it.]
【”after all.”】
[“Even if he is an immortal.”]
[“It’s impossible to fulfill everyone’s wishes!”]
…
[January, the 13th year of Jingping.]
[It’s the New Year again. 】
[Chen Huaixin once again brought Ji Changwei and others to the streets.]
【Maybe it’s as I get older.】
[He likes this kind of crowded and lively occasion more and more. ]
[And the two-year-old daughter of Ji Changxi was holding his finger and looking around calmly.]
[“As expected of the Fourth Princess’ daughter.”]
【“Seeing a crowded and lively place.”】
[“I wasn’t scared at all, and I didn’t have any plans to go crazy.”]
[Ji Changwei said with a smile beside him.]
[What she was talking about was naturally what her son did when he appeared on the streets of Chang’an City as a child.]
[Ji Changxi’s daughter just glanced at her, then turned her gaze back to her father.]
【Chen Huaixin smiled and picked her up.】
[“Every time she didn’t want to walk, she would stare at the adults and ask them to carry her.”]
[“Long.”]
[“Was it the same when you were little?”]
【Chen Huaixin looked at Ji Changxi.】
[But Ji Changxi ignored him and teased his sister’s daughter instead. ]
[The little girl was amused by her and laughed out loud, even calling her “Mom” a few times.]
[“Ji Changxi’s daughter is called Ji Changluo’s mother.”]
[“Ji Changluo’s daughter is called Ji Changxi’s mother.”]
[“Why don’t you just switch babies and raise them instead!”]
【Ji Changwei is joking.】
【Ji Changluo shook his head quickly. 】
[“My daughter only knows how to say mother and not just my sister.”]
[“But Changxi’s daughter only calls you mother and never calls you Changxi, is that right?”]
【Hearing this.】
【Ji Changluo showed a trace of embarrassment on his face.】
[She glared at her sister, because she was not at home all day and her daughter didn’t want to call her mother anymore! ]
[But Ji Changxi didn’t care at all. She knew very well that her daughter was just throwing a tantrum at her. She would stop being like this when she grows up…right?]
[“Let’s not talk about this anymore.”]
[“Let’s have some fun today.”]
【“The past two years.”】
[“The Gun Research Institute has produced fireworks.”]
[“Now you can see beautiful fireworks at night in Chang’an City.”]
【Chen Huaixin looked up at the sky.】
【There happened to be a firework exploding there. 】
[It also attracted the attention of the surrounding people. ]
[“The ingredients of this thing are similar to the earth-shaking effect. Don’t you plan to control it?” Ji Changxi rarely stopped teasing her sister’s daughter.]
[She naturally knew about the birth of fireworks, or rather, when the young people at the Gun Research Institute accidentally developed this thing, they informed her first.]
[But when she told Chen Huaixin about it, Chen Huaixin didn’t pay much attention to it. Instead, he thought that this thing could be used as a festive atmosphere because the exploding fireworks were really beautiful! ]
[“In the short term, it will be controlled by the imperial court and local governments, and the fireworks can be set off during the New Year.”]
[“You mean a short period of time? What about a long period of time?”]
[“As time goes by, there will be no need for that. With the official launch of the research award, maybe someone among the people will be able to discover the secret of gunpowder!”]
【This is what Chen Huaixin said. 】
【Ji Changxi was skeptical about this.】
【after all.】
[If ordinary people could discover the secret of gunpowder, they would know how to make it.]
[How could it be like this in such a long time…]
[Before she could ask further, the answer had already appeared in her mind.]
[“Because the immortals used to restrict people’s thinking, now the immortals… have been pulled down from the altar!”]
【Ji Changxi figured out the answer himself.】
[Her eyes turned to Chen Huaixin, who was holding his lovely daughter in the night and looking up at the fireworks.]
[The light of the fireworks illuminated his face, which was clearly marked by the years, yet still intoxicating. ]
[“Is this world… already what you imagined it to be?”]
…
[Same month.]
【The Ji Changxi Award was announced. 】
【Looking at the court newspaper. 】
【Detailed description of the award. 】
[Many people immediately became restless.]
[“As long as you can invent something that has never appeared before, you may be able to win a prize?”]
[“This reward is really generous. Even if you get one tenth of it, you will be able to live comfortably!”]
[“No worries about food and clothing? Fame and fortune! If you can win the Ji Changxi Award, even the imperial court will look at you differently. It is not impossible for you to become someone like His Highness Ji Changxi!”]
[“You’re overthinking it. The requirements of the Ji Changxi Award are not something that can be achieved casually. Let’s take a look at our local awards!”]
【“…”】
[The people were talking about it.]
【certainly.】
[Most people are self-aware.]
[That is the highest award of Yu Country, which is beyond their reach. Even the students in the academy know how difficult it is.]
【so.】
【They have more.】
【I turned my attention to the awards in my local area or school. 】
[Only by lowering the requirements can you take off the laurel crown! ]
[“I just didn’t expect that the highest award in Yu Country would be named after Vice Principal Ji!”]
[“What? Do you have any objection?”]
[“No, no! I just find it a little strange. Although I heard from my teacher before that the court was going to give out some awards to honor researchers, I thought it would be called the Dayu Award or something like that.”]
[“But on second thought, it is also appropriate to use Vice Principal Ji’s name. After all, most of Dayu’s important research achievements are related to her!”]
【“…”】
【Compared to the common people. 】
【Students in the academy know better.】
[After they counted Ji Changxi’s research and inventions. ]
[The face that had been prepared mentally was still filled with astonishment. ]
[For most people, being able to accomplish one thing in their lifetime is already something worth bragging about.]
[But for Ji Changxi, it seemed normal, as if as long as she was willing and spent time, she would be able to do it! ]
[“Vice Principal Ji, this is so terrifying!”]
…
【February, the 13th year of Jingping.】
[The controversy over the award has not yet subsided.]
Because of the atmosphere it created.
【Let the people do this every once in a while. 】
【Some “new inventions” can appear! 】
【”certainly.”】
【“Among them.”】
[“Most of them can’t be called inventions.”]
[“It can only be said that it is a combination of two or three things.”]
[“But there are indeed very few of them that are useful!”]
[The Prime Minister reported the memorials from various places to the court.]
[The incentive of the award makes people very interested in invention.]
[This is also what Chen Huaixin expected.]
【and.】
He knows very well.
[This trend will not last long.]
【Wait until it’s over.】
[The ones who remain after the great waves are the ones who have the potential to create new and unique things! ]
[“Don’t worry about this matter for now.”]
[“We can wait until the end of the year for local governments to conduct award selection.”]
“We just have to make sure it’s fair.”
【Chen Huaixin said this.】
[The Prime Minister also nodded.]
【Wait until his report is finished. 】
[The Minister of Revenue took the lead and walked up. ]
【”His Majesty.”】
[“His Highness Ji Changxi has applied for a large amount of funds.”]
[“I have made an estimate.”]
[“This is almost equivalent to the commercial tax revenue of Nantou City for half a month!”]
[The Minister of Revenue looked a little unhappy.]
【Nantou City. 】
[That is a demonstration area for commercial law and the earliest place for maritime trade! ]
[It is equivalent to half a month’s commercial tax revenue, which is enough to show how much money this is! ]
[Even the other ministers were shocked when they heard this.]
[“So many? Your Highness Ji Changxi, what does she want to do?”]
[“She said that she was going to start making steam trains!”]
