Meng Li also knew that the ideas in his mind were too detached from reality, and with his current ability, half a scientist could not cultivate them.

He had read such a statement in an extracurricular book: The cost of training a fighter pilot is so much that the exchange of gold is enough to pour into an adult-sized gold man!

It is estimated that the cost of training a top scientist will not be less than that of a fighter pilot! And not everything can become a scientist, which requires talent, at least a certain requirement in IQ.

It takes a long time to train a scientist, not to mention the money and people. It takes a long time for anyone to acquire knowledge, and even if you are a genius, you can't really be born to know it. Born to know, that is only when Shinto still exists, the reincarnation of the immortal god.

Right now...... Except for Meng Li, there are no more immortals in this world.

Thinking about this, Meng Li suddenly found that although enlightenment can make him have a lot of merits at once, with his current ability, even if he has many ideas in this regard, he does not have enough ability to turn his inner thoughts into reality at once.

"Not to mention that you can't find someone with the talent to become a scientist in a short period of time, even if there are people, you don't have enough money to train, and the first hurdle to train scientists is still a matter of money!"

Meng Li only has more than 10,000 Chinese yuan on him, which is enough for an ordinary family of three to eat and drink for a year, but if he wants to use some money to cultivate talents, it is far from enough.

"In this society now, if you don't have money, you can't do it, it seems that you have to pay more attention to the cultivation of medicinal herbs, and you need a lot of money in the future...... The matter of cultivating scientists who will promote the development of the world is not in a hurry, and we need to prepare slowly, but now we are still thinking about how to repay the 1,399 merits in a short period of time...... Things that are good for social development, things that are good for social development......"

Meng Li chewed repeatedly in his heart, thinking about whether there were other things that could gain a lot of merit in a short period of time.

"The ancients said that building bridges and roads is immeasurable." Meng Li had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly remembered some classical novels he had read, in which some places often mentioned that some great good people in ancient times would build roads and bridges for the township, and the book said that this was a great good deed, a great good deed with immeasurable merits.

"In ancient times, most places were not convenient for transportation, and things like building roads and bridges can obviously help people in remote areas with blocked traffic to communicate with the outside world, which is beneficial to the development of those remote areas...... Moreover, the more communication with the outside world, the knowledge of the local people will definitely be gradually enriched, which is not a kind of education? There is also edifying merit in this. ”

The more Meng Li thought about it, the more he felt that his understanding of merit was gradually profound and thorough.

He felt that he should not limit his merits to the merits of good deeds, the merits of punishing evil, or the merits of edification, in fact, sometimes the merits of good deeds will also include the merits of edification, and the merits of punishing evil can also have the merits of edification. Helping your classmates master knowledge is actually doing a good deed in itself!

"To grasp the essence of merit, that is, whatever merit can be obtained, it is ultimately something that is beneficial to the development of the world!"

The forces that promote the development of the world are big and small, so the merits that come down from the Heavenly Dao are also more or less.

"Is it possible for you to gain a lot of merit in a short period of time by doing such things as building roads?"

Meng Li took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, because the time was thinking very fast, almost half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, Meng Li glanced at the door of the bookstore, Meng Tiezhu had not come back yet.

"The road from Mengjia Village to the town is too bad, as the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build the road, Mengjia Village is so poor, and it is related to the remoteness but traffic blockage, which Sister Xin has lifted with herself. If I can build the road, maybe I will be able to pay off the more than 1,000 merits I owe! ”

Why do they say that road building is a meritorious thing? That's because building roads is not only good for the people of today, but also for future generations! Not to mention benefiting a hundred generations, at least a good thing to benefit two or three generations!

So the more Meng Li thought about it, the more he felt that if he could repair the road from Mengjia Village to Tianling Town, maybe he would really be able to pay off the 1,399 merits he owed!

This road passes through three villages and thousands of households!

But building a road doesn't mean that you can fix it if you want to.

What does it take to build roads?

Meng Li had the answer after a little thought, building roads requires manpower and material resources, that is to say, people and money are needed!

"Alas, it's money again!" Meng Li found that he seemed to be stuck on the money!

"If you have money, talk to the village cadres of the three villages, as long as they pay for it, they will definitely raise their hands and agree to build the road, manpower is definitely not a problem, there is still no money if there is a problem!"

Money is not everything, but no money is everything! Meng Li had a deeper understanding of this sentence.

You can't buy merit with money, but sometimes you need money to help you get merit.

"It seems that we have to find a way to make more money, and the cultivation of medicinal herbs will not be effective until next year...... I don't know how much it costs to build a road. ”

Meng Li was thinking about it, Meng Tiezhu had returned, Meng Li saw that he was empty-handed, and couldn't help asking: "Tiezhu, didn't you say to buy things for your wife and children?" ”

"Iron pillar" he shouted very smoothly. As the only immortal in the world, he naturally has the strength to call anyone by name. Although Meng Li didn't feel that as an immortal, he was superior to others, but the godhead of the land god gave him the confidence to be at least equal to anyone in this world!

Even if the other party is a world-class magnate.

"I walked around the neighborhood and it didn't seem like there was anything to buy." Meng Tiezhu said first, then glanced at the cash register, leaned over and whispered: "I have inquired, now the price of Huangjing and Gastrodia seeds is very high, it is better for us to save 50,000 yuan." ”

When Meng Li heard this, he was immediately silent, and sighed in his heart, it was about money again.

At 4:50 in the afternoon, Zhou Jingfang drove the car to the door of Huimin Bookstore on time, and when she saw a large pile of books bought by Meng Li, she was stunned: "Why do you buy so many books?" This...... There are also textbooks for the third year of junior high school, so many sets? ”

"I also bought some of the classmates in my class who often study together, and we are going to study together at my house during the summer vacation." Meng Li smiled and explained briefly, he saw Zhou Jingfang's two delicate eyebrows furrowed, and there seemed to be something hidden between his eyebrows, so he couldn't help but say: "Aunt Zhou, if you have something, you don't have to send us, we can charter a car ourselves." ”

"It's okay, I'm on my first day in office today, I don't have to go to work, let's go, put all my things in the back seat, let's go get the TV, and put the TV in the trunk later."

Zhou Jingfang opened the backseat door, helped Meng Li put a bunch of books in the back seat, and then motioned for Meng Tiezhu to sit in the back, Meng Li sat in the co-pilot, then got in the car and started the engine, banged the accelerator, and the jeep drove quickly in the direction of Tianling Town.
