Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Chapter 240 Let the ancients see the power of technology.

"Students, the opening ceremony will begin soon. Now, please allow our school principal to give a speech."

Wei An put down the microphone in his hand and applauded symbolically.

The students below didn't know what it meant, but they still started clapping like Wei An.

"Pa bang bang..."

But what about the principal?

Where is Princess Tai'an?

While applauding, everyone looked around for the principal who was supposed to be on the podium.

There was a buzz of discussion, but suddenly... a whirring sound came from the sky.

Everyone looked up, Huang Siwan pointed at the air with her mouth open.

"What it is?"

I saw a colorful spherical object floating towards the altar, and the sound of burning flames also came from there.

When they got closer, everyone could see that there was a basket under the ball. There were several people standing in the basket, smiling and waving at the students on the ground.

"Wait... those are Princess Tai'an, Princess Changle, Princess Wuyang, and the Minister of War. How did they fly to the sky?"

Some students exclaimed in surprise, and their voices became hoarse due to excitement.

Nearly a thousand students in the square started to make noise.

The parents who were unable to enter the school looked at the thing floating above the school with great curiosity. If it weren't for the guards with weapons guarding outside the school, they would have climbed up the school wall and looked inside.

Seeing the students below staring in astonishment, Xu Jinyu smiled with satisfaction.

When she introduced the women's technical college to everyone that day, everyone's attention was on frosting and glass, and no one cared about airplanes, trains, or telephones.

Now let these children receive the impact of science.

Xu Jinyu raised the microphone beside her and said, "Witnesses of the new era, students of the Women's Technical College, welcome to the new world."

What is Princess Tai'an talking about?

Witnesses of the new era?

What does it mean to welcome them into a new world?

They didn't understand, but that didn't stop them from clapping their hands desperately. They were unwilling to stop even if their palms turned red.

Xu Jinyu pressed down her hands, signaling the students below to stop clapping, and then she picked up the microphone again: "As you can see, what you see is the power of technology, which will be what you will learn in this women's technical college."

"Not only can you go up to the sky, you can also go into the sea, split the mountains and cut the earth. One day you will stand on the sky and observe what our world will look like."

"Principal, is this the way you are going to heaven?"

"This is just the simplest way to get to the sky. If you want to go to the sky, there are flying wings, airplanes, rockets... There are many ways. It will not be a dream to reach Cangwu in the morning and Beihai in the evening."

Wei An below covered his face with his hands in disbelief. Xu Jinyu was really ruthless in deceiving people. Only a flying wing might be realized, but forget about the airplane within a hundred years.

With this foundation, organizing a pyramid scheme will be twice as effective with half the effort.

"Then...then...can we learn it too?" asked a girl who was obviously dressed simply and came from a commoner family.

"Of course you can learn, but you were born in a commoner family, so you should make a living first, and then learn other things. However, as long as your grades are good enough, the school will provide scholarships of one tael of silver per month."

"If that classmate succeeds in making something useful, the minimum reward will be one hundred taels of silver, depending on the value of the thing, and there is no upper limit. As long as you do a good job, I will ask His Majesty to appoint you as officials."

"Ahhhhhh~~~"

The girls screamed with excitement.

Everyone clenched their fists, excited beyond words.

Even the girls from wealthy families in the capital clenched their fists. They did not desire money that much, but if they became officials, they would be able to come and go freely every day and their future lives would no longer be decided by their parents.

The prospect excited them.

The screams continued for a long time and spread throughout the entire campus. People not far from the school looked up in surprise. What happened to a group of girls that made them scream like this? It was really unchaste.

Xu Jinyu smiled widely.

Little leeks, please help me develop the technology and make the electric light for me within three years.

I don’t know how long it was before the sound became a little quieter, and pairs of excited eyes stared at the people in the sky.

Xu Jinyu's voice continued to be heard from the sky: "Do you know what science and technology are?"

"do not know."

The girls below all shook their heads.

Xu Jinyu bent down and took out a bow and arrow from under his feet and handed it to the Minister of War, Lord Dou.

Lord Dou bent his bow and shot an arrow. The arrow flew out and hit the school wall, penetrating three-quarters of the way into the wall, and the arrow feathers trembled constantly.

"This is the simplest scientific knowledge, the interaction of forces. Please, Mr. Minister of War, introduce this bow to me."

The Minister of Works raised the bow and arrow of the Imperial Guard in his hand and took the microphone from Xu Jinyu.

"Hey, hey."

His voice spread throughout the entire playground. The Minister of War suppressed the corners of his mouth that were slightly raised. This was a microphone. He didn't even speak very loudly, but his voice spread throughout the entire playground.

The officials standing behind the podium looked at the Minister of War with envy.

The right prime minister muttered quietly: "I want to take the spotlight too."

The left prime minister glared at the right prime minister and said, "You are useless. You vomited when you smelled a little bit of stench, which allowed Dou to seize the opportunity."

The right prime minister's eyes widened. Is that just a little bit of stench? That smell is enough to kill people.

"This bow is the bow of the Royal Guards. It is a three-stone strong bow with a pulling force of three stones, which is one hundred kilograms. The person who draws this bow needs an arm strength of at least 120 kilograms."

"Okay, everyone, take a look at my bow and arrow." Xu Jinyu lowered his head and took out another bow and arrow from under his feet. This bow and arrow was completely black, shining with a metallic luster in the sun, and there were many delicate parts on it.

Xu Jinyu easily pulled the bow and loaded the arrow. The arrow flew out and pierced into the school wall. Not only that, the arrow was halfway into the wall.
