However, Li Shanchang has gradually given up hope. The Crown Prince and the Emperor are too similar, and Li Shanchang no longer has much expectation. As for turning the tables, it's better to leave it to fate. He really doesn't have any other ideas now.
Zhu Xiong Ying had indeed almost forgotten about Li Shan Chang, mainly because there were simply too many things to do. He also had many other concerns.
"Why was I a liberal arts student? And why did I study such a ridiculous field as marketing?!" Zhu Xiong Ying scratched his head, somewhat frustrated. "The technology tree is just too difficult to unlock. Developing firearms is a given, but I can't even make a gun right now!"
Zhu Xiong Ying is unlikely to deviate too much from the historical trend, and may even reduce the possibility of taking some detours. However, there are some things that Zhu Xiong Ying currently has little control over; expecting immediate changes or rapid technological development in the Ming Dynasty is unrealistic.
Well, these things can't be rushed. Developing a technological foundation requires continuous technological accumulation and talent cultivation. We can't rush it now, and we certainly can't expect to acquire high-performance firearms immediately.
"Forget it, I'll just focus on training public intellectuals." Zhu Xiong Ying shook his head, then suddenly felt a bit amused and exasperated. "I never imagined that the first batch of scholars I trained in the Ming Dynasty would end up training foreigners. Public intellectuals it is, the Celestial Empire will win your hearts!"
The first batch of students at the Imperial College in Beiping were students from different ethnic groups.
Suddenly remembering something, Zhu Xiong Ying laughed, "Huang Zicheng, let him take on a part-time job. He's so focused on restoring the Zhou rites, let him help me train these foreigners first. He's a third-place scholar after all, we should make the best use of his talents!"
Zhu Xiong Ying indeed didn't think much of Huang Zi Cheng, and some of Huang Zi Cheng's views were even met with disdain by Zhu Xiong Ying. However, Huang Zi Cheng wasn't truly lacking in ability and knowledge; if placed in a certain position, he might still have some effect.
First, let them educate and nurture, allowing the elites of those foreign lands to experience the grandeur of the Ming Dynasty. When they return to their homeland, they might become pillars of society. After all, the Ming Dynasty cannot immediately achieve global dominance; even Asia is difficult to conquer.
Let's first cultivate a group of traitors or people with grand dreams of the Ming Dynasty, and let Huang Zicheng 'deceive' those people; maybe it will be effective.
Zhu Xiong Ying, a smile playing on his lips, was rather hopeful. He hoped that some barbarian tribes would learn the Zhou rites, or that the entire court would be filled with pedantic officials. Even if these things couldn't be fully realized, just one or two troublemakers would suffice, letting those kingdoms fight amongst themselves.
