The production of plastics is more troublesome than that of generators. Even though the capital is located in Chang'an and oil fields have been discovered, plastics are high-molecular compounds that require the addition of synthetic resins, plasticizers, and stabilizers.

The development of these involved more chemical experiments and extractions. After studying for a few days, Lin Jin finally chose to temporarily abandon plastic and switch to natural rubber. As for the production of wires, it was mainly handed over to the Ministry of Industry. She mostly played a theoretical guiding role in this area.

"Miss, this is the registration list you mentioned before. It has been sorted out." Xunmian handed the list of new students they registered to Lin Jin, along with their detailed information. "We have picked out those whose family backgrounds are really not suitable."

"Family background? Didn't I say that anyone who is willing can enroll?" Lin Jin looked at the lists. No matter whether they were daughters of officials or other girls, most of them were born as concubines and were not important figures in their families. They seemed like low-cost trial and error for these families.

"Those with bad conduct and poor moral character have been picked out. If these girls were to enroll in school, other girls might not agree. The girls are already very popular now, and it would be bad if they were caught making mistakes again." Xunmian and Xing'er have seen a lot of these things. Although sometimes it is not a big mistake, it is still a problem if someone really holds on to it.

Lin Jin nodded to show that she understood. There were also restrictions on the men's side, and it would not work if the women's college had no threshold at all.

"The Lord Chief Academician is here. Do you want to go out and see him? It seems like there are some things he doesn't understand that he wants to ask you." Xing'er put aside all the materials she had prepared for the academy during this period of time.

"Everyone is here, how can I not see them. It's getting cold today, so please keep an eye on the ginger soup and typhoid medicine from Shangshan Hall and make sure they don't run out of supplies." Lin Jin knew why Xi Tianrui came, and took out all the books she had prepared in the morning.

Those who can survive the summer may not be able to survive the cold winter. Even in the capital, there are refugees. At first, Lin Jin didn't understand why these people with hands and feet couldn't find a job to support themselves. They have been beggars since childhood. Does that mean they will be beggars all their lives?

But later she found out that Daxia really had no shortage of people. In this situation, who would hire a beggar as a worker? It's not that these people are unwilling to find work, but they can't find work. No one would be willing to hire them. Even if they are selling their bodies, matchmakers will still be picky about these people and may not necessarily accept them.

Xi Tianrui saw Lin Jin's figure, stood up and bowed: "Mrs. Song."

Lin Jin's mouth twitched, and he almost didn't react: "Master Xi, just call me Lin Liu. Master, you are honoring me, which is too much. I don't deserve it."

The difference in official positions between Xi Tianrui and Song Shiqiu was actually not that great, not to mention that this was when Song Shiqiu was not around, so Xi Tianrui didn't need to take the initiative to inquire.

"Now the Women's Academy has begun to recruit women to study physics. I wonder when the men's side will start?" Lin Jin asked someone to bring all the books up. "These are the books that Master Xi needs."

Xi Tianrui didn't expect that Lin Jin had taken out all the books he wanted before he said anything: "How did Madam know what I wanted?"

"Because learning is endless, if any of you delve into that knowledge, you will definitely have more thoughts and ideas, and you will find that a lot of knowledge is not complete, and there is still a lot that has not been explained. You will definitely come to me."

Just as some people who learn ancient Chinese will study the lives of ancient people, and some people who learn science will study the mysteries of the universe, everyone will not stop at the knowledge they have learned in their own field of talent, but will explore more knowledge on their own.

There is a sequence in learning, and there are specializations in skills. Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise, and every field has its own talents.

Lin Jin didn't know whether Xi Tianrui came to her on his own or because someone raised some questions that made Xi Tianrui come to her. This shows that there must be someone with talent in the field of physics in the Imperial College.

"Madam really has a sharp vision and far-sighted thoughts." Xi Tianrui smiled as if he was embarrassed and ashamed. "Physics is indeed worth studying, but we haven't learned it thoroughly. How can we be teachers? This is misleading our students."

"Then let's study and research at the same time. What's the big deal?" Lin Jin shrugged indifferently. "Learning and arguing with each other may have unexpected results. After all, we didn't have writing and arithmetic in the beginning, right?"

"After so many years, policy papers and other subjects have been revised and improved. What is there to worry about, Lord Xi? Anyway, we have just begun to study this subject and there is no possibility of regression. Why not go for it boldly?" After this period of experiments, Lin Jin has become more open-minded. The worst that can happen is that she will not be able to figure it out. She had never figured it out before. Anyway, all her experiments now are just trying to get something for nothing.

Da Xia will not regress because of her experiment, so there is nothing to worry about.

Xi Tianrui seemed to have not expected Lin Jin to say this, as if he was thinking about this possibility: "But, in this way, wouldn't there be many inconsistencies in this discipline, and even many errors?"

"Of course not. This is science. If you want to tell the truth from the false, you will know once you do the experiment, unless the experiment is fake. But even if it is fake, others can verify his conclusion. The conclusion of the fake experiment is totally untenable. It is easy to distinguish right from wrong." What Lin Jin didn't say was that if someone could really come up with a conclusion, he would be a very talented person and definitely smart.

"Master Xi, even smart people, unless they are truly a one-in-a-million genius, will have their own strengths and weaknesses, right?" Lin Jin actually still admires these people's learning abilities. However, even if they have good academic performance, it does not mean that these people are suitable for scientific research. After all, the physics book she gave Xi Tianrui before only covers up to the third year of high school.

Xi Tianrui looked at the books that the servants had brought over that were similar to Xiaoshan's and pursed his lips. "You're right. I'll go back and discuss this with my colleagues. Sorry for bothering you today."

"It's not that I'm bothering you. I've been waiting for you to come to me for new books after you finish studying those books." Lin Jin was not afraid that Xi Tianrui would come to him. Instead, he was afraid that Xi Tianrui would not come. If Xi Tianrui did not come, the subject of physics would be killed.

"I heard that you also want to let ordinary people learn calligraphy?" Xi Tianrui sincerely felt that Lin Jin was a young and fearless person, just like his sister. No wonder the two of them could become friends.

“There is nothing wrong with teaching everyone. Moreover, throughout history, the rise and fall of world fortunes and the prosperity and decline of talented people were reflected in politics and their principles are in learning.” Lin Jin expressed her determination in just one sentence. Since it was difficult, she would take it step by step.

Xi Tianrui silently recited this short sentence in his heart, and gradually his eyes showed shock and admiration: "Before, I was prejudiced against Madam, thinking that Madam was just an ignorant woman. Now I see that I was just sitting in a well and looking at the sky, with only one leaf blocking my view."

"The late emperor was right. Women are not born short-sighted. It is the secular perspective that has become a shackle that has bound women. Tianrui has learned his lesson." Xi Tianrui bowed deeply to Lin Jin, "You must be a wise man, otherwise you wouldn't be able to say such a thing."

Lin Jin didn't dare to take the blame, this was not what she said: "These words did not come from my mouth, they were said by Senior Zhang Xiaoda, the old man Baobing."

"Who is this old man holding ice? Where is he now?" Xi Tianrui asked hurriedly.

Lin Jin scratched his face: "He passed away."

Let’s not talk about whether there is an old man named Baobing in this world. Even if there is, he is a person from the late Qing Dynasty and has not been born yet.
