Chapter 55 The Earth is Round

Luo Changsheng still knew.

White Horse and Silver Spear, although the ending is a bit tragic, he is definitely one of the most popular characters in the romances of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Changsheng had a good impression of him. If possible, Changsheng would not mind taking him under his command and changing his destiny.

But now she has no time for anything else, because her camp school has started a new semester.

The most senior students in the camp are now ten years old and the oldest are thirteen or fourteen years old.

These people were called ‘newborn students’ by her.

Changsheng is mainly responsible for their courses. Daily courses include Chinese, arithmetic, geography and physics and chemistry.

As a result, it turns out that without the teaching of the modern education system, the infusion of knowledge does not proceed smoothly.

…

Looking at the confused expressions of the children in the audience, Changsheng put down the charcoal in his hand: "You can ask any questions."

Wang Si, nicknamed "Fourth Brother", was the first to raise his hand. He has grown taller this year.

Chang Sheng knew him and jokingly said: "Get up and talk, fourth brother!"

The fourth child flushed with embarrassment and waved his hands repeatedly: "Master, please stop making fun of me. How dare I do that? I just have a question. Is the earth really round? Doesn't the book say that the world is a round sky?"

"Tian Yuan Di Di Di is the person who wrote the book. I can't say that he was completely wrong about the understanding of the earth. It's just that the understanding of research matters at that time was limited by technology. But today our research methods have improved, so our vision must be broader.

open."

"I can only tell you that if you are given a horse and it doesn't get tired, and you keep riding eastward, one day you will circle the earth and come back from the west. This means that the earth is round.

Yes, right?"

The fourth child did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment, and then nodded slowly: "If what you said is right, then this situation will happen, but if the earth is a ball, then people who are not standing on it will have no head.

If they just rushed down, wouldn’t they fall down?”

"This is a good question. It proves that you have thought about it." Changsheng nodded and encouraged him, "But this itself involves another issue, which is force in physics. Everything has a powerful effect.

There are both suction and push forces. Sometimes these forces are so big, sometimes they are so small that you can't even feel them. So I call them gravity, which means everything has gravity!"

"To understand the problem you are talking about about people not falling from the earth, we must first understand what is the definition of falling? When the fruit on the tree is ripe and falls to the ground, we call it falling. It starts to rain from the sky.

Rain, we call it rain falling. So now I ask everyone to think about a question, why do rain and apples both fall down and eventually fall to the ground instead of flying to the sky or in some other direction."

"As long as you understand this, you will understand why people don't fall."

Seeing everyone's wide-eyed and confused expressions, Changsheng looked at the time and decisively announced that get out of class was over.

What we talked about today has seriously exceeded the outline, but now that we have said it, there is nothing wrong with leaving an after-school homework for them to think about. Who says that China cannot produce a Newton or a Galileo?

The teaching process itself is also a screening process. During education, we can discover the interests and strengths of different children so that we can arrange them into appropriate positions in the future and make the best use of them. This is the biggest purpose of Changsheng.

After moving here, Changsheng spent some money to obtain the distribution map of nearby mineral resources through the ages. Combining her memories from previous lives, she roughly understood the distribution of available resource points in the surrounding area.

Then she can formulate a plan to occupy, utilize and develop these resources.

Of course, these plans are now mainly designated by the Secretariat headed by Zi Qiao, and Chang Sheng is responsible for reviewing and final approval and signature.

And this time Chang Sheng finally found out the name of his cousin named Zi Qiao.

Since she was shocked by her second brother last time, she has made a new habit of checking the people around her first to avoid missing any important people.

Sure enough, Fang Xuanling, named Qiao!

Fang Mou is determined, right? I just don’t know where your other good friend is?

Seeing that his cousin, who was not yet in his prime, was already doing well in the secretarial department, Chang Sheng had to admit the power of historical inertia!

Soon Fang Xuanling presented the prepared list of personnel structure of the resource mining team.

The team members in the plan should include a geological surveyor who can identify longitude and latitude, a geological expert with the ability to identify and measure minerals, a guide who is familiar with local customs, language and culture, and medical staff with medical first aid capabilities and physical strength.

A security guard with extraordinary skills, and finally and most importantly, a diplomat who can negotiate with official families and local indigenous people.

This seemingly small team is actually very exaggerated in its configuration. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small special forces unit.

When I first saw this, Chang Sheng felt that it was enough for them to instigate a coup against a small country.

However, after careful review, she found that it was indeed necessary.

It is easy to choose other candidates, but who should be chosen as this diplomat? Changsheng consulted his subordinates.

Soon everyone came up with a name, Thirteen, which was the little boy who was first punished by her, and then stood out and was accepted as a disciple by Master Lu.

Everyone's evaluation of him is that he is alert, sociable and extremely calm.

Although he is not a smooth person, his emotional intelligence is definitely sufficient.

Changsheng thought about it and thought it was okay, so he found someone to inform him of the news.

So the list of top-ranked southern inspection team members was quickly determined.

Each of the three craftsmen and determined mineral surveyors, including Shisan, was given a portable compass that Changsheng had just developed. There was also a complete set of field survey equipment such as an engineer shovel.

The map is a new, rewritten and revised version. It is an absolute secret and is carried by Cui'er, the commander-in-chief of the southern expedition.

The medical team is a sister nurse team led by Xiaoqing. Not only are they proficient in various first aid and pharmacological knowledge, they are also experts in the prevention and treatment of various poisons and miasma. Of course, if Sun Simiao was not too old, Changsheng would have approved his visit this time.

of.

The escort team is the elite of the elite, mixed with some of Commander Liao's subordinates, including many capable people from the green group, and even a few older first-year students, among whom there is hope to see the round earth.

The fourth child.

In addition to being responsible for daily protection, they are also responsible for recording local customs and special species.

In addition, in addition to Thirteen, the diplomats also have a small steward assigned by the steward who has been dealing with the government for a long time. This way, there are also people in the officialdom, which makes up for Thirteen's shortcomings in this aspect.

So when Li Jing met Li Shimin and gave him a jade pendant, the team set out south with sufficient supplies to follow the movement of the sun.
