Among the twenty-first century technologies brought by Zhao Weiji, matches are just one of them, and they are still relatively untechnical, but they are enough to shock these people who are still in the tenth century.

Although it is no longer a problem for humans to make a fire, it is still surprising that it is so simple to light a wooden stick, so Jabbar finally believes that Zhao Weiji said that there are a lot of unknown technologies and knowledge in Xinhua City.

However, there is another point that Director Jabbar doubts, that is, whether Zhao Weiji will really share this knowledge and technology so generously, and whether there is any price.

Director Abdul-Jabbar's suspicions are justified, Zhao Weiji is actually a bit nationalistic, and for people of his own nationality, he is willing to take out these techniques to teach them. But it is not so simple for foreigners, especially for foreigners with a high degree of civilization such as Muslims.

Unlike the Indians, who possess a high degree of civilization, a nation with a high degree of civilization is not easily completely eroded by another civilization in the process of peaceful interaction with foreign races.

Moreover, it is a powerful civilization like Islamic civilization, and Zhao Weiji, who is well aware of the history of the earth, has a phenomenon until one thing, that is, once a region is Islamized, it will always be Islamized, and there are not no exceptions, but there are very few.

Therefore, it is impossible to expect the powerful Central Plains civilization to erode them peacefully, unless it is a war. But the problem is that today's Zhao Weiji, let alone the emperor, has not yet become the emperor, even if he does, it is still relatively difficult to launch a war against the civilization of the Middle East.

For these reasons, it is basically impossible for him to come up with technology for this group of Muslims, but why is Zhao Weiji now showing these technologies and preparing to attract scholars here to Xinhua City to study and communicate, isn't he afraid that that group of people will come back to contribute to their motherland after learning knowledge?

Zhao Weiji already has a good countermeasure to find a problem, that is, the geographical location of Xinhua City. Don't look at the 21st century, Dubai in the Middle East and New York in the United States have frequent exchanges.

At this time, the location of Xinhua City is the horizon for Baghdad, and Zhao Weiji is sure that he is the only person who can carry out the voyage from Xinhua City to the Middle East in this era.

Once this group of scholars reaches Xinhuacheng, they can only rely on Zhao Weiji's ship if they want to leave, which means that their entire lives have actually been controlled by Zhao Weiji.

And there is also the fact that although it is not easy for higher civilizations to encroach on each other by peaceful means, if they do, it is only a small number.

But that applies only to civilization and civilization, not to civilization and man. When a small number of individuals enter a different kind of civilization, if they do not want to be out of step with the people around them, they will inevitably be influenced by the surrounding civilization.

Don't look at Islamization is so powerful, once Zhao Weiji arrives in Xinhua City, Zhao Weiji still has the ability to sinicize them, so Zhao Weiji can carry out the ** of these scholars so fearlessly.

However, this whole set of things naturally can't be revealed to Abdul-Jabbar, but Zhao Weiji can't show too generous, as if I really provide these things to you at any cost. Sometimes it's suspicious to be overly enthusiastic.

Therefore, Zhao Weiji needs to be stingy to make the Wisdom Pavilion feel at ease.

"Of course, I have no objection to the scholars of your Wisdom Pavilion to study in my Xinhua City, but I have one condition, that is, I agree to need your knowledge and books, in addition to the books that I found this time, I would like to ask the scholars in your Wisdom Hall who want to study in Xinhua City to bring their works with them, or the works they think are valuable to Xinhua City together."

As soon as Zhao Weiji's words came out, Jabbar's heart immediately relaxed, as long as you Zhao Weiji put forward the conditions, it would be easy to say, I am afraid that you don't want anything, then it is doubtful.

In this way, the matter is no longer simply a matter of translating books, it has evolved into a question of academic exchange, and the problem of this kind of academic exchange is similar to talking about business, because the knowledge in the Hall of Wisdom is not everything that can be taken out in Jabbar's opinion.

Since they need to have reservations, they need to carry out a so-called sky-high bargaining process and paying back the money on the ground.

It's just that what Abdul-Jabbar didn't expect was that Zhao Weiji actually didn't look down on the so-called knowledge that needed to be kept secret at all, what he needed was those scholars who studied natural sciences, and what he wanted was talents.

After all, compared with the Central Plains scholars who have a weak foundation in this area, with this group of Western scholars with a good foundation, Zhao Weiji will be able to have a group of good teachers at least when he popularizes this knowledge in the future.

However, since Jabbar thought about this question as complicated, he could only deal with it in a complicated way, so after listening to Zhao Weiji's request, he could only answer this matter, and he would take it back to the Wisdom Pavilion to discuss it with his colleagues and give an answer later.

Having said that, in fact, the purpose of today's meeting has been achieved, and now that the purpose has been achieved, Zhao Weiji is ready to leave to go back, because he still has to watch the transportation of those books.

But just as he was about to leave, Director Jabbar suddenly opened his mouth and left Zhao Weiji behind.

"The prince walks slowly, I still have a personal matter that I want to ask the prince for help."

As soon as Zhao Weiji heard about private matters, he was a little confused, I don't seem to have any intersection with you, how can I help you in private matters.

However, out of politeness, Zhao Weiji reluctantly agreed to Jabbar.

After receiving Zhao Weiji's affirmative reply, Jabbar led Zhao Weiji to his study alone, only Zhao Weiji was alone, Kendi and Wang Dayuan were left in the living room, and the servants were temporarily entertained.

After the two came to bring Jabbar's study, Jabal pulled out a chair in front of a small table and invited Zhao Weiji to sit down, and then he took out a set of things that seemed strange to Zhao Weiji from the cabinet and put them on the table. After that, Jabbar sat opposite Zhao Weiji.

"I wonder what the prince thinks about astrology? Or do you believe in fate? ”

Regarding things like fate and gods, Zhao Weiji's attitude is actually very **. From his previous education, he shouldn't have believed these things.

However, it was the unthinkable supernatural phenomenon that happened to him that he was shaken a little bit by the so-called superstitions of these traditions.

But when he chose to believe these things, the legendary great onmyoji Ampei Qingming couldn't decipher his fate, and he didn't even give the words of the fools of ordinary fortune tellers.

At this time, Zhao Weiji gradually lost trust in such a thing as fate.

It's just that sometimes life just likes to joke very much, and when he no longer believes in these things, another person came to ask him if he believed in fate, which made Zhao Weiji not know how to answer.

After Abdul-Jabbar finished asking his question, Zhao Weiji pondered for a moment, and finally he decided to choose to trust his feelings and heart, so he shook his head.

After seeing Zhao Weiji shaking his head to indicate that he didn't believe in fate, Jabbar didn't have any disappointed reaction, after all, judging from the many Central Plains people he had contacted in the past, many of them didn't believe in fate either.

However, Zhao Weiji didn't believe it or not, Jabbar still had to continue his words.

"Although the prince doesn't believe in fate, and he doesn't trust astrology as a means of fortune telling, do you mind if I give you a divination?"

Jabbar's request made Zhao Weiji a little happy, he never thought that the curator of the Wisdom Pavilion in front of him would actually know astrology.

Since you know astrology and want to give me divination, then I will promise you, Zhao Weiji would like to see how this Western astrology compares with the Yi Shu of the Central Plains or the Yin and Yang Shu that extends from Yi Shu.

The legendary Ampere Qingming can't even capture his fate, so what can you little astrologer do?

"If you want to do a divination for me, then please."

After getting Zhao Weiji's affirmative reply, Jabbar began to move, and he unfolded all the things that had been placed on the table before.

When Abdul-Jabbar unfolded the whole set of things, Zhao Weiji finally saw what it was, there seemed to be a astrolabe inside, and the eighty-eight constellations of Zhou Tian were drawn on it. Then there's a compass, something that looks like tarot cards but isn't, and a "perpetual calendar".

"Lord Wang, can you tell me your birthday?"

"Mine? My birth date is the chronological method of the Central Plains, is it useful for you to take it? ”

"Just tell me, I'm originally studying the Central Plains culture, and I know how to convert."

Hearing Abdul-Jabbar say this, Zhao Weiji was relieved, and then he thought about his birthday. Originally, he didn't know his birth date, after all, he didn't have the original memory of this body after passing through. But fortunately, he was married, and when he got married, both men and women had to exchange birthdays, so he was fortunate to learn the birth date of this body.

"The fourth year of the Great Song Dynasty, the eighth day of the seventh month of the year of Bingyin."

After hearing about this birthday, Abdul-Jabbar looked at the "perpetual calendar" he had in hand, and then began to convert. After the conversion was completed, he asked Zhao Weiji to draw three cards out of that pile.

Then he began to put three cards on the star map, and began to look for Zhao Weiji's corresponding constellation in the converted birthday.

Then his pupils dilated.
