Chapter 485: Public education
"The minister believes that more extensive public education should be established on the basis of public education. These educational measures include the establishment of libraries and museums. In addition, theme education should also be carried out on certain holidays. For example, Qin State's martial arts spirit. We. A special day can be selected as Qin’s National Defense Martial Arts Day. This day can allow more people to participate. It can also organize a large number of weapons displays. In short, the people must maintain this martial arts spirit." Shangwen proposed.
"The idea of this national defense martial arts day is very good. The widow agrees very much. Da Qin has never lacked such a martial arts spirit. The widow agrees very much. But what is this museum? The widow has never heard of it." King Qin asked.
"This museum is to collect the wonders of the world. For example, we can collect plant specimens from all over the world. Collect local geology and make scene models. This helps the people of Daqin to understand the local customs. It is also this understanding that inspired me. The people's interest in these places. Then encourage them to go abroad."
"Not only that, the establishment of the museum can also inspire people's desire to explore, and let the people of Daqin have more exploration spirit. There are no wonders in the world, but they are all in the collection of my Daqin Museum." Shang Wen said.
"En." King Qin nodded.
"Museums have everything. Astronomy, geography, humanities, history, science, etc.. If you can. There can also be military museums." Shang Wen said.
"Well, the widow understands." King Qin said.
"This requires a lot of financial resources. The widow heard from Yu'er that the financial situation has been bad. Is that right?" Qin Wang asked.
"Yes. But the minister can encourage the people to participate. For example, those large amounts of spoils can encourage them to contribute. Show them to the people." Shang Wen said.
"En. How about a few exhibits for the widow?" King Qin asked.
"That would be great." Shang Wen did not refuse in the slightest.
Later, Shang Wen explained other things in detail and then withdrew from the palace. It is important that Shangwen also drafts relevant legal documents. These things can only be brought into a normal development track after they are finalized in the form of legal documents.
After preliminary finalizing some documents, Shangwen should designate a place as soon as possible to provide some places for these public education. For example, the location of the National Library, the location of the National Museum. These places generally occupy a large area. The city has already taken shape. It is impossible to arrange it in the city center. Shangwen made deliberate arrangements when planning the city. That is to decentralize the functions of a city. Rather than being scattered, it is better to divide the city and improve some of the urban functions in the area. For example, hospitals, schools, etc.
In addition. Shangwen also considers some large squares and some sports facilities. At present, the development of sports in the State of Qin seems to have not developed to the necessary level. This process requires economic development to provide a level again.
After Shangwen came back, he was busy with these things continuously. Orders are issued one by one. Domestic development has always been his most important point.
News from the museum began to spread through newspapers as a medium. At the same time, Shang Wen called on the private sector to participate. Let the people spontaneously donate and provide some in-kind items in various aspects.
As soon as this news came out, it suddenly overshadowed the previous wave of discussions about the Battle of Changping.
"Hey, what does this museum do? I saw my neighbors took all the stone mills. They said they were going to be exhibited. In that case, can my big pot be sent there too?" A woman said.
"Oh, I said the wife of the Bai family, you really have thoughts about all aspects of the real thing that people want, what do you say you do for a big pot. Let me see your stove." Another middle-aged woman Said.
"If you want me to tell, I'll take out the armor of my family. Anyway, these things are useless if you put them there. This is the age of guns. This armor is probably useless." A slightly younger one. Said the woman.
"I think this will work," the middle-aged woman said.
"I happen to have two pairs in my house, and I will also send them there." The middle-aged woman hurriedly scattered home and took her armor.
There was a long queue outside the Qin State Mansion’s yamen. These were all objects provided spontaneously, ranging from clay pots to armor, and various weapons used. The officials have to register in detail. These officials didn't understand why they searched for these things. It's really strange.
After checking the searched things, Shang Wen felt that his idea of building a museum was about to build a mess. The people don't know what the museum does. They think that as long as it is old or unnecessary, it will be collected.
Shangwen had to use newspapers to publish and search for other things. In order to be certain. Shangwen carried out a large-scale classification. There are eighteen categories from geography, military, astronomy, humanities, and biology. In order to collect better collections. Shangwen also requested that the national government can make purchases within an appropriate price range.
This news came out. Suddenly attracted a lot of people's discussion. At this time, people knew that it turned out that the museum wanted to exhibit these things. As a result, armed personnel of some security trading companies took out the weapons and daily equipment that they had seized. The officials thought that this was a very reasonable thing, so they paid a certain amount. At this moment, people seem to have found inspiration.
Newspapers also have new highlights. It even opened up a special treasure hunt column to report on some tools of ethnic minorities. Through these tools, began to gradually explore the civilization of these ethnic groups.
For example, a large number of weapons, even clothing and clothing, were seized on the battlefield. Gold and silver jewelry, etc. Some people in Qin State began to explore cultural studies in this area. Similarly, some people have begun to provide regional models in different regions. They used the sand table to imitate the humanistic customs of the region. In order to be more realistic, some people began to travel to different places for special expeditions.
The appearance of paper also made some plant specimens appear. This is very important to Qin, because it is accelerating the differentiation of a discipline. biological. People began to deliberately collect various plants in some places. This is mainly derived from research in Chinese medicine. However, with the expansion of the collection scale. This is gradually dividing it into subjects.
With plants, there are animals, but animals cannot be made into specimens. As a result, people sent living things over. These things became the embryonic form of the Qin State Zoo.
