Jiang Tian got up early in the morning, and after a hurried breakfast, he went out dressed neatly. Because he has to walk more than ten miles to the academy of sciences in the north of the city today, which was originally the territory of the Guozijian, the Qing soldiers have been deserted since they came in, and then the late Ming Emperor Zhu Cihong in order to show that the imperial court is back in charge of the Qiankun also planned to restore the country's sub-prison, but at that time the country was full of holes and urgently needed to recuperate, so this plan was postponed, but the land could not be empty, and the General Academy of Sciences, which contributed a lot to the victory over Jiannu, temporarily moved here from the south, and as a result, they did not move their nests until the change of dynasty. If you want to say that there is the Confucian Temple in Beijing nearby, what should it be like for Confucius to watch these people who engage in science dangling in front of their eyes every day? Now Jiang Tian is quite nostalgic for the means of transportation in later generations, even if he knows that the speed of taking a car within the second ring road is not as good as walking, it is a hundred times stronger than sweating and panting and not seeing the destination now, who let Guozijian sit in the northeast corner of Beijing, and the alley where he lives is in the southeast of the city, this road is almost parallel to the central axis of Beijing to move north. I don't know how long he walked, but he finally climbed to the gate of the current Academy of Sciences, but was blocked by two soldiers standing guard.

"The idlers of the ministry and the courtyard dodge away!" A soldier with a musket on his back stood in front of him, and he saw that Jiang Tian was a scholar, so he hadn't moved his hands and feet yet.

The sweaty Jiang Tian looked at him directly, and the resentment in his eyes could simply kill a person who was not firm in his mind. I just want to come here to make a point, if the matter is more tricky and I can't solve it, it can be regarded as an explanation, but I don't realize that almost all the traffic in Beijing is to be solved by "11 bus", I am not a wealthy family or an official on the job, and the treatment of riding a horse and sitting in a sedan chair is gone, and there are still some mules and carriages in the city to provide rental business, and later because the war livestock is an important strategic material, so this kind of spontaneous private transportation service has not been restored. When he braved the scorching heat to trek here, but was dismissed by someone with a light and fluttering idler, who can not be angry?

"Get out of the way? That's fine, too! Then you can explain to Dean Song why I didn't show up! After saying that, Jiang Tian twisted his face and left, but in fact, he was happy in his heart, thinking that we were being a showman and being blocked by a small soldier, which is definitely a humiliation in this era, so he can reject Song Yingxing thousands of miles away, and at most the self-esteem of the poor Xiucai will explode, and he will no longer eat the food that comes to him. With this excuse, you can bargain with Old Man Song.

Those who can stand guard here are well-informed, not to mention that he is a talented person and is often patronized by the emperor, especially knowing that today's son attaches the most importance to collecting all kinds of strange people from the people, if it is really the distinguished guest found by Dean Song to let himself slacken, it will be troublesome. So these two people reacted quickly, and the other hurriedly stepped forward to say good words, and the person who intercepted Jiang Tian just now immediately rushed back to report the news. As a result, Song Yi trotted all the way out of the gate to greet him.

"I'm slacking, I'm slacking, Brother Muhua, please. I couldn't wait for a long time just now, Yijian couldn't wait to pick you up, why didn't you see him? ”

Yijian is Liu Baokai's word, and it is considered intimate to call it like this between friends, Jiang Tian saw that the goal was achieved, so he stopped pretending, and walked in with him from the corner gate: "The road is far away, and it takes a long time, I think it is a fork in the road with Liu Xiandi." ”

After passing the Taixue Gate, I saw a wide courtyard, and from time to time people walked around in various rooms, holding a pile of papers and various tools in their hands, and the busy scene suddenly appeared. There is still a big difference between the Guozijian in this year and the later generations, and many buildings built in the Qing Dynasty, such as the Biyong Palace, do not yet exist.

Song Yi introduced as he walked: "The Yilun Hall in the north is the Imperial Education Academy where our students and others go to study, and the other rooms are used by the Academy of Sciences, and the ancestors are now in the Jingyi Pavilion......

Jiang Tian had no choice but to continue walking towards the back with him, and many people were peeking at them along the way, probably wondering how the dean's proud grandson could accompany a young man, and his demeanor was respectful.

"Grandpa, Brother Muhua is here......"

Jiang Tian saw Song Yingxing, the author of "Heavenly Creations" for the first time, this rather tragic figure can be regarded as the founder of China's encyclopedia, and is the apex of contemporary comprehensive scientists, especially he is different from Western scientists who focus on theoretical research, he attaches more importance to actual production and process improvement, which is in line with China's consistent scientific progress line, but because of the turbulence of the current situation, he has not been able to go further on the theoretical basis. If it weren't for the fact that this plane was turned around by a time-traveler, perhaps those shining writings would have disappeared.

The person on the other side was also looking at Jiang Tian, the old man in his sixties seemed to be in good spirits, reached out and stroked the white beard on his chin, and then reached out and pointed to a chair next to him: "Sit down." ”

There is no nonsense in the simple and concise, but Jiang Tian looked at the environment in the room, in addition to the table in front of the old man was full of books and papers, there were also various documents scattered in the other corners, just a few chairs were free, and Song Yi would definitely not sit down in front of the old man, so he had to do enough etiquette for the younger generation.

"I don't dare to sit in front of adults, if it weren't for Brother Song Xian today, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to enter your study."

The old man understood what was going on as soon as he heard it, so he stood up with both hands on the case, and Song Yi hurriedly went over to help: "Don't blame them, there is a decree on the Holy Authority to recruit the world's talents, but most of the people who come here are famous and famous, so they will inevitably be a little ignorant of etiquette, so don't worry about the old man's face." ”

Yes, the old man doesn't talk about it, don't worry about it. Jiang Tian thought to himself that you are sure of me, maybe you don't know yet, right? I already know that you can't solve Xiyun's account at all. He watched as the old man flipped out a small booklet on the bookshelf behind him, and then handed it to Song Yi for him to take it.

When I opened it, I found that this was a hand-copied telescope manufacturing process, which looked like it should belong to something like R&D notes, and there were many hand-drawn drawings in it. It's a little rough, but at least it's clear. Jiang Tian pondered that Old Man Song was really missing, and he planned to let himself work without even taking a sip of water! But it's good to see, I don't know where to start when the time comes. Although it was only a cursory glance, he knew that this so-called research was purely a blind man touching an elephant, and they did not even have the most basic knowledge of optics, not to mention complaining that the color of the glass was not good, and it seemed that it was an imitation of the existing clairvoyant.

So he kicked the notebook into his arms, and arched his hand towards Song Yingxing in a pretentious manner: "I must study it well when I go back next, and I will leave." ”

Old man Song and Song Yi didn't expect Jiang Tian to run away so directly, but neither of them made a move to stop him. Generally speaking, extraordinary people do extraordinary things, Jiang Tian's style is in line with the image that young people who are arrogant and arrogant should have, but it is against the system to let you just take the secret document back, so although the old man Song did not speak, he knew that he could not get out of the gate of the Guozijian at all, and just as the old man thought in his heart, he didn't even go out of the courtyard for the second time, and there were two people who looked like guards blocking the way.

Jiang Tian was not in a hurry or annoyed, he was doing this to make his position clear, and the province made the family think that he came here to repay his kindness, so when Song Yi heard the voice, he took out the note from his arms. Then he smiled and tore up in front of everyone.

"You can't make this kind of thing, it's embarrassing to say that it's a state secret, it's okay to deceive country children, but it's bullshit in the eyes of capable people, and it depends on how many catties and taels you have to do things, and it's ridiculous and generous to spread it, and then come to me after you figure out the optical principle." After speaking, he ignored Song Yi's stunned expression, turned around and walked away.

The people in the courtyard stopped what they were doing, and they were surprised that this young man's courage was really not small, and this was not equivalent to slapping the dean in the face! Don't say that you are a little talent, even when you see the dean today, you have to give three points, where does anyone dare to humiliate him like this? Look at it, although the dean is usually quite kind, it is estimated that he will be angry this time. In fact, Jiang Tian is giving Song Yingxing a dismount, which can be regarded as a kind of venting after being calculated, since he knew that he couldn't turn Xiyun into a positive, he gradually straightened out the development of things all along, and then he discovered the reality that he let people use but didn't know it, so he had the behavior of looking up at the stars and feeling life. So although he came to the Academy of Sciences in a hurry today, he has been looking for an opportunity to embarrass Old Man Song in his heart, so that these bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods know that they are not easy to bully.

Not to mention, Jiang Tian walked away arrogantly, and Old Man Song was half angry, and he didn't know that Tian Yu and Liu Junding were hiding in a certain room and watching him perform, if it was according to General Liu's temper, he would have drawn a knife and chased him out, but Tian Yu stopped him and laughed deeply. Although Jiang Tian's words just now were angry, there was quite a lot of information coming out, first of all, the other party may have known that his side was using him, and secondly, this person was indeed gifted, and he did not block the back road in his words, he only said that he would come to me when you figured it out, which proved that he still wanted to cooperate, but he was just negotiating terms with his side. After listening to Tian Yu's analysis, Liu Junding thought to himself, there are so many of you scholars, no wonder there are so few civil and military combinations in the past dynasties, and the most annoying thing for those of us who go into battle to kill the enemy is twists and turns.

I don't mention how the old things continue to conspire, but Jiang Tian has to go home through most of Beijing, but he is not worried about the other party's dog jumping off the wall, there is a good saying: barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. The emperor ordered you to develop a telescope, then you have to find a way to complete the task, before the work is done, everyone wants to be comfortable, when the time comes, you must come to me, there is a Catholic church in the capital, and the priest is also a famous Tang Ruowang in history, and what is more terrible is that this well-known priest is also the author of the famous "Telescope Theory", as long as he is invited out of the telescope and something like that, it is handy, but when chatting with Liu Baokai some time ago, he asked about this person tentatively, Who knows the answer is no! Later, I inquired again to find out that Beijing fell, according to history, John Tang should have been protected by the Qing court and continued to stay in the capital, but history has deviated, when today's son from the beginning of the great importance of these missionaries, before the sneak attack on Beijing City, a special person was arranged to rescue these valuable scientific talents, but unfortunately the people on the mission were found to expose the plan, and then the sneak attack troops have hit Tianjin Wei, Dolgon's principle of not grabbing it and leaving it to others set fire to the church and wantonly killed the people involved, John Tong died in the process of protecting the church, and many of the scientific talents originally trained by Xu Guangqi were either killed or disappeared, which makes it so difficult for the current Academy of Sciences to imitate a Galilean telescope.

Since they know that they have something to ask for others, then of course they have to wait for the price and sell, and in terms of astronomical knowledge, they may not be as good as John Tang, but when it comes to comprehensive disciplines and various formulas and conclusions of science in the future, any middle school student is better than the bulls of this era. Just like a few days ago, the heliocentric theory was verified, Europe is based on years of research and theoretical accumulation, which has the debate between heliocentrism and geocentrism, in which mathematics has played a decisive role, it can be said that China's scientific and technological backwardness since the Ming Dynasty began with the outdated mathematical knowledge, and the predecessor who became the emperor paid too much attention to practical science, completely ignoring the importance of basic science for future development, otherwise it is completely possible to introduce the Western academy system first, and gradually cultivate a group of localized professionals, Then think about how to explode the product, so that it can play a role in accumulation, so that the country's academic research into a virtuous circle. Otherwise, even if a batch of things that transcend the times are created, they will only build buildings on the beach mountain, and sooner or later they will reap the consequences.

Slandering this senior in his heart, Jiang Tian walked through the alleys of Beijing, and he didn't know where he went, he heard a burst of laughter, and he didn't care at first, but the more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, as if someone was talking about cross talk, and he was talking about his own joke! Following the sound, I found that there was a small open space in a small alley, a group of coolies who looked like porters were sitting in the shade of trees, among which there were many old people and children, watching a half-sized boy standing there and making a gesture, Jiang Tian hid aside and eavesdropped for a while, that's right, this kid is talking about "Three Dangers in a Day" that he just talked about two days ago! It seems that this is the legendary stealer, right? Take a closer look at this kid, although he is dressed shabby, but his face is still clean, he shouldn't be a flower child, it's rare that he really looks like that when he performs, and there are no obvious mistakes or omissions. A cross talk was quickly finished, and I saw the child pick up a broken basket, nod and collect money from the audience, of course, most people didn't give it and dispersed early, even if it was at most one or two copper plates, and some people gave half a steamed bun or two cucumbers, he didn't refuse to put them all away.

Jiang Tian showed a wry smile when he saw this, touched the change in his arms, picked up a piece of broken silver that was not much bigger than a fingernail, walked lightly to the back of the kid, and then threw it into his basket, and turned around and left without waiting for the other party to react. This is the real performance, it's hard for a child to eat this bowl of open rice, look at the way he collects everything, think that life is unsustainable, don't say anything else, I have to reward him with a little money for his good memory, maybe he will become a generation of famous actors in the cross talk industry in the future. Then he turned back to the child, he didn't see who threw the broken silver, and when he found out, he only saw a back of Jiang Tian, he looked around carefully, and found that no one noticed him, so he hurriedly put away the silver, and then rushed home with the basket of money.

Although there was such a small episode, but Jiang Tian went home not late, although he was not slow, but there were people who were faster than him, as soon as he entered the alley, he saw three horses tied in front of the teahouse, and there was no need to guess who this horse was, he walked back to the store as if nothing had happened, if it weren't for his sweaty head, others really thought that this was just coming back.

"Yo, all three of them are here, but the shop only cares about tea and food." He half-jokingly gave the gentleman an eviction order.

Boss Zhao could see that Jiang Tian was confident, so he was still sitting at the counter and napping like an old monk. Looking at the three people again, of course Song Yi was lucky with an angry face, while Tian Xuhai looked at Jiang Tian thoughtfully, in fact, he was just waiting to see the joke, and Liu Baokai sighed and shook his head.

Jiang Tian was also polite, their Eight Immortals table happened to have a vacant seat, so he sat down with a big grin: "Say, what are you looking for me?" ”

"You!" Song Yi stretched out his hand and pointed at him, and then forcibly suppressed his anger: "If Brother Jiang doesn't want to help with this, you can say it directly, why bother!" ”

"That's it, that's it." Liu Baokai also helped on the side: "Aren't you embarrassing Dexin by doing this, and you can't say that the note will be torn apart!" ”

Dexin is Song Yi's expression, Jiang Tian did not take a stubble, but turned his head to look at Tian Xuhai: "Brother Huaigu, what do you have to say?" ”

Tian Xuhai was a little surprised, this guy didn't pay attention to the questioning but asked himself directly, could it be that he was really sure to make a clairvoyant mirror? Looking at the other two companions, they were all the same puzzled.

"Before I came, my father did explain to us, everything is easy to discuss, but it's a little ...... for you to do this"

Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, Jiang Tian laughed: "It's not that I'm boasting, the level of your telescope is really far from Europa, if John Tang hadn't died, he would have made one better than yours, do you know why?" ”

When Song Yi heard him say this, he also knew that he was deliberately selling a pass, and remembered Tian Shangshu's instructions when he came, so he had to ignore Jiang Tian's rude behavior for the time being: "If Brother Jiang really has a way, why don't you explain to me in the courtyard, why do you have to humiliate the ancestors?" ”

"Humiliation? Not really, I said that if I let me do it, it will only depend on whether you can afford it! ”

Liu Baokai heard that the other party was going to make an offer, so he hurriedly greeted: "I think it's okay, it's not too early today, little brother, I'll go to the opposite side to set up wine, let's talk while eating!" ”

After speaking, the other two people who understood hurriedly agreed, and then set up Jiang Tian and walked towards the opposite door. As soon as they went out on the front foot, Old Man Zhao also woke up from his "sleep", and then nodded to Xi Yun, who had been peeking here: "Prepare more food at night, lest your brother Jiang not have a supper." ”
