"this......"
Although Li Lin wanted to say that mathematics, chemistry, and physics were not related as father and son, they were indeed intertwined and interdependent. He wanted to explain, but he couldn't explain it clearly.
After all, mathematics is a fundamental discipline, a tool-based discipline.
Other disciplines are practical applications of mathematics.
"Prime Minister Li, do you know why my attitude towards you has changed so much? It's because your disciples and their descendants have already created the four great inventions you envisioned, and each one can be said to be epoch-making, which can greatly enhance the national strength of our Great Qin. This is all thanks to you."
"Cough cough cough..."
At this moment, Li Lin really didn't want to say anything anymore, because he was truly too ashamed.

"Those are all just trinket trinkets, mere whimsical tricks..."
“Oh, Prime Minister Li, you can’t say that. These aren’t just clever tricks; they’re science and technology!

With such a powerful weapon, what can the Xiongnu do if they launch a full-scale southward invasion? Even if all the northern tribes unite, we Qin people will have more confidence because of gunpowder."
"As for the invention of the compass, they also invented the north compass. This was a tremendous strategic invention for military campaigns and trade. Finally, the invention of printing further increased the speed at which books were produced. These two technologies complemented each other and were truly remarkable achievements. Prime Minister Li, these are not trivial matters, nor are they some kind of whimsical tricks!"
"Young Master Fusu, I never expected that you, so deeply influenced by Confucianism, would possess such insights. It truly exceeds my expectations. Since you acknowledge my previous achievements, I will no longer conceal anything. I am about to implement the imperial examination system!"
"The imperial examination system?"
Fusu's eyes widened; clearly, he had never heard of this specific term before.
