Chapter 429: Auditors
The eastern sky had just lit up, Cheng Muyang had already jumped up from the bed, and then took the washing utensils to the water tank in the courtyard and began to wash, before he finished washing, the doors of the other two rooms in the same courtyard were also opened, and then two young people who were about the same age as him also yawned and walked out.
"Brother Yunqi got up so early!" I saw the young man who came out of the room on the east side greeted Cheng Muyang with a smile, Yunqi was his word. I saw that the young man who spoke was slightly fat, born with a smiling face, and looked kind, which made people feel very cordial.
"Haha, Brother Zhongkai, it's not too late for you to get up." Cheng Muyang greeted him with a smile when he saw that the other party was also smiling, and then turned his head to another young man and smiled, "Senior Brother Ling rarely gets up early today, it seems that we can go to breakfast together!" ”
"Hehe, it was not easy to get the county king to agree to let us enter the school to audit, so naturally we have to go early to occupy a good position!" In addition, the young man also opened his mouth and smiled, I saw that this person was thin and tall, with a very peculiar long face, and his facial features were very upright, but that long face was really unforgettable at first sight, but he would not pay attention to his appearance.
"That's right, it's thanks to the soft-heartedness of the county king, otherwise we would have to pack up and go back to our hometown today." The chubby young man came to the water tank with his washing things and said with a smile, his surname is Sun Minglin, the word Zhongkai, the family has been doing business for generations, and it is said that the family's business is very big in the south, and he came to Gewu College mainly to study mathematics in order to facilitate the future takeover of the family's business.
"I really envy Brother Xingde, he is the only one of the four of us who has been admitted and become an official student of the academy, and his future is limitless!" At this time, Cheng Muyang suddenly smiled and said, this courtyard of theirs was rented from the villagers of Shangshuizhuang, and there were originally a total of four people. But one of them was admitted to the academy and had already moved to the academy yesterday.
"Brother Xingde came earlier than us, and he has been attending classes under the county king for the longest time, so it is normal for us to be admitted, we just need to wait patiently for a year, and usually listen to classes. You can also get into the next year! At this time, the long-faced young man said a little unwillingly, his name is Wang Xun, the word Lingxue, his father served as a county magistrate in Shandong, and his friend wanted to recommend Wang Xun to enter the Guozijian to study arithmetic, and he would be an official in the future.
It should be explained here that although the science of the Tang Dynasty set up a subject of Ming arithmetic, even if it was passed the examination, it could only hold the official position of the nine grades, and its status was relatively low. Although the science of the early Northern Song Dynasty abolished the Ming arithmetic, but in the Guozijian set up a special arithmetic, and the inmates were divided into three levels, if the inmates who studied arithmetic could be admitted to the highest level, they could be directly awarded official positions, without going through the imperial examination at all, so in contrast, the Song Dynasty paid more attention to arithmetic than the Tang Dynasty. There are even some ministers in the political hall who are proficient in arithmetic.
Originally, Wang Xun wanted to enter the Guozi Prison to learn arithmetic, so as to get an official position. However, he was worried that his arithmetic foundation was too poor, and it would be difficult to pass the examination of Guòjian when he entered Guozijian, and he happened to hear that Zhao Yan's arithmetic was simple and easy to understand, and it was very organized, so he did not rush to enter Guozijian, but planned to enter Gewu Academy to study arithmetic for a period of time. It's a pity that he didn't get in, but fortunately, yesterday Zhao Yan promised to give them another chance.
Cheng Muyang and the three of them finished washing up as quickly as possible, and then walked towards Gewu Academy together, although Zhao Yan changed the microscopic to Gewu Academy, but the market in front of the academy was not canceled. On the contrary, because after the establishment of the college, the number of people is more than before, so the market is also more lively, in the morning the market is almost all selling breakfast, buns, cakes, soy milk, rice porridge everything, not only rich in variety, the taste is also good, so whether it was before or now, people who pass by are willing to buy some of their favorite breakfast in the market to eat.
Cheng Muyang and the three of them were no exception, but they didn't have the heart to savor breakfast today, but stuffed breakfast into their stomachs as quickly as possible, and then rushed into the college, among which Cheng Muyang went to the physics department to listen to the class, and Wang Xun and Sun Lin went to the mathematics department.
Yesterday, Cheng Muyang and the others knelt in front of the college, and finally made Zhao Yan think of a way to get the best of both worlds, that is, to announce that all the courses of Gewu Academy are public, no matter which department the lecturers and professors give lectures, as long as other people are willing to listen, they can go to the lectures, but they can only audit, they have no right to ask questions to the lecturer, and they also have to leave the college after school, which is significantly different from the official students of the college.
Cheng Muyang hurried to the classroom of the Department of Physics, thinking that he had come early enough, but he didn't expect that the large classroom for lectures was already full of people, among which there was a group of young people wearing green cloth robes and blue scarves sitting in front of them, they were students of the college, so they sat in the front position, and they could also communicate with the lecturer when listening to the lecture, as for those who were auditors like Cheng Muyang, they could only stay in the back, and they couldn't make any noise when listening to the class, otherwise they might be kicked out.
Physics is a relatively popular subject, in addition to arithmetic, the whole college has the largest number of people in the Department of Physics, and there is a professor in the Department of Physics, the professor's surname is Li Mingyong, is one of Shen Kuo's friends, he has studied physics before, and later listened to Zhao Yan's lecture, it is even more fast, this time he became the only professor in the Department of Physics, and today's class is that he explains some basic principles of physics to students.
Cheng Muyang's hometown is in Jiangling Mansion in the south, which is very far away from the capital, and he only learned about Zhao Yan's lecture in Xianwei two months ago, so he came to listen to the lecture thousands of miles away, and only came to live near Xianwei ten days ago, but unfortunately, although Zhao Yan occasionally lectured in the past ten days, the main content of the lecture was focused on mathematics, and he only passed by in physics, and the physics he talked about did not start from the basics, so Cheng Muyang couldn't understand it at all.
But now this Professor Li is starting from the most basic physics, which is like opening an unprecedented door for Cheng Muyang, through which he can find all the answers to the doubts in his heart. It was also at this moment that Cheng Muyang felt that his decision to travel thousands of miles to the capital was correct, as for the hardships on the road and the request to kneel in front of the academy yesterday, this qiē was very worthwhile.
The morning passed quickly, and when the bell rang for the next class, Professor Li on the stage announced the end of the lecture, but Cheng Muyang had a feeling that he was still unfinished, and even forgot to write down his notes because he was too serious about listening to the lecture just now, but it doesn't matter, his memory has always been very good, and he listened to the lecture seriously, so he remembered what Professor Li said, and it was a big deal to go back and write it down silently.
Recalling what he heard today, Cheng Muyang was the last to leave the classroom, yesterday he had already seen the floor plan of Gewu Academy, and knew that there was a cafeteria in the college, although they were students who were auditing, they could also go to the cafeteria to eat, of course, the college could not provide them with a free lunch, but it was said that the price was not expensive.
When Cheng Muyang found the canteen according to the map in his memory, as soon as he arrived at the door of the canteen, he saw Sun Lin and Wang Xun also walking together, which made him also very happy and shouted: "Brother Zhongkai, Brother Ling, I didn't expect to meet you again by such a coincidence, how is today's class?" ”
Sun Lin and Wang Xun saw that Cheng Muyang also smiled, and immediately strode forward and said: "It seems that the three of us are really fateful, speaking of which our luck is good, today's class in the Department of Mathematics was taught by the king of the county himself, and he explained the foundation and principles of symbolic mathematics for us, which is really eye-opening!" ”
Hearing that Sun Lin and the others actually heard Zhao Yan give a lecture in person, Cheng Muyang also showed an envious expression on his face and said: "I remember listening to the lecture of the king of the county a few days ago, he once said that mathematics is the mother of a natural discipline, and there are the most people in the mathematics department of the college, it seems that you should be able to listen to the king of the county often in the future." ”
Cheng Muyang and the three of them chatted for a few words, and then they entered the canteen to eat together, this canteen was originally the place where the Taoist priests used to eat before, covering a very vast area, and when they entered it, they would see rows and rows of long wooden tables, and the students could find a place to sit down and eat at will after the meal was prepared.
The three of them took the cutlery at the door, and then lined up to the window, only to see a fat cook standing in the window, dressed in a white robe, and several huge basins in front of him, which contained several meat and vegetable dishes, and the prices were marked on them, so that you could choose from the rice.
Cheng Muyang was born in a scholarly family, and his family background is not poor, but it is not too good, so he made a relatively cheap braised pork, which is made of pork, and only costs five cents for one piece, but the iron plate mutton next to it costs ten yuan, and then he made another rice, a full bowl only costs one penny, such a price will definitely lose money outside, but the college is not a restaurant, and there is no need to rely on the canteen to earn students' money, and cheap meals are also one of the benefits that the college gives to students.
Seeing Cheng Muyang playing braised pork, Sun Lin and Wang Xun, who were relatively wealthy, also glanced at each other, and then they were also hit with braised pork, but when they sat down and tasted the taste of braised pork, they were all shocked, they never knew that pork could be made so delicious.
After eating an unexpectedly delicious lunch, Cheng Muyang and the three of them took advantage of the lunch break to come to a vacant lot in the college to rest and chat, the three of them chatted about their gains today, and then talked about their dreams, although their respective pursuits are different, but they all firmly believe that here in Gewu College, they will definitely find a way to realize their dreams!
