As the saying goes, food is the sky! For many college students, this sentence should not be excessive: college students live on books!

Books are the food of college students! On a beautiful university campus, you can do without everything, but you can't do without all kinds of books.

Although there is a wide variety of books in this game stall area, it is very organized. You only need to look at the color of the stall owner's sign to know what kind of books he is selling.

For example, Yao Yayao wants to buy a few construction engineering books, you only need to click on those earthy yellow signboards to find them. If it is a physics class, including computer books, etc., it is a blue signboard. Finance and economics are the signature of local tyrants. Some world famous books and leisure books, including martial arts series, are mostly black signs.

Yao Yayao remembers that the bookshelves at the home of the grade counselor, Ms. Fan, are also classified according to this color system. And the professional equipment obtained by college students of different majors in the game is also differentiated according to this color system.

It's so much more convenient! In this way, you don't have to click in every booth to have a look.

There are a lot of gamers in the stalls, but some of them only ask for the exchange of certain books, rather than selling them.

All the second-hand books here are indeed much cheaper than the books in the game world bookstore. Most of them just need one-third of the price of the original book.

Yao Yayao, who once bought books in the book store in the game world, knew that the reason why players sold them so cheaply was because they were already half-price when they bought them. The other half of the book price is sponsored by LNST and the Water Grace Foundation.

LNST and Shuien Foundation are two private education foundations under the Tianxia Alumni Association Network, which provide various counterpart assistance to students in colleges and universities across the country. It is said that in just over a year since its establishment, it has received a staggering amount of donations from various alumni. Millions of alumni across the country are continuously donating to these two foundations, with tens of billions of dollars.

Providing half-price book purchase assistance to students in colleges and universities across the country, with a limit of 50 books per person per year, is a very heartwarming market initiative of the two foundations. This approach has received a lot of praise from current students and alumni. It is said that the establishment of these two educational foundations was the vigorous promotion of the president of Noah Company. He used the theory of "Double Helix Chain" to impress all the board members of the Tianxia Alumni Association Network and promote them to resolutely establish these two non-governmental education foundations.

The exclusive genetic map of the [Xien Double Helix Chain] drawn by Bu may have become popular on the Internet: two oppositely parallel polynucleotide chains are intertwined with each other to form a right-handed double helix structure. The two winding curves, one in red, represent a special "blood thicker than water" sibling relationship between alumni of the same alma mater in different generations. The other one is green, representing the green channel, representing the green rattan thrown from the cliff to the bottom of the cliff below, which is also the meaning of the capable brothers and sisters, who will continue to carry their alma mater when they have the opportunity.

In addition, the red chain represents gratitude, and the green chain represents hope. The countless truncated horizontal short chains between the two NDA main chains are engraved with the names of alumni who graduated and left the school one by one in different eras. The red and green chains flow in the opposite direction. The main circulation flow direction of the green chain is downward, representing the flow of favors and gifts at the level of senior brothers and sisters. The main circulation of the red chain flows upward, representing the positive feedback of the possible future wellspring of reciprocation for the younger brothers and sisters.

The younger brothers and sisters who have been helped, finally one day they will also become brothers and sisters with spare power. Gratitude will motivate them to carry their younger brothers and sisters again under the chain. "Carrying and gratitude", these two form a benign campus humanistic DNA chain that is endlessly and forever circulating.

With this kind of [double helix chain], it has touched countless alumni of colleges and universities, and greatly promoted their willingness to donate with their younger brothers and sisters. This is how he got his reputation as the "father of oriental online education". In order to make this kind of "Grace Double Helix Chain" an eternal engine and continue forever, tens of millions of former alumni across the country have taken out their real money and generously injected into the LNST Education Foundation and the Water Grace Education Foundation.

He may have been invited to appear on the cover of Time Magazine because of his outstanding personal achievements in promoting the education of the people of Tianxia. The diagram of the [Double Helix Chain] drawn by him is simple and clear, with far-reaching significance, and foreigners can easily understand it, and it is full of praise.

Yao Yayao specially clicked on those stalls with earthy yellow signboards to look for them. It didn't take long for him to find what he wanted, that is, the books recommended by Associate Professor Qian: "Mechanics of Materials", "Structural Mechanics", "Foundations of High-rise Buildings", "Thermal Conduction", "Introduction to Building Foundations".

By the way, he also bought an extra copy of the famous "Construction of the Qing-Tibet Railway". He wondered how the world's most amazing highland railway was built. And the builders, what kind of hard work have they paid.

The purchase method is very simple, you only need to leave a message at the booth, and report your mobile phone and bedroom number. It is said that these buyers' messages will be automatically sent to the stall owner's mobile phone by the game's official system. Legend has it that they only teleport during recess, and not during class hours. Isn't that amazing?

There are many gamers who buy and sell all kinds of second-hand books here. Why are so many people in a hurry to sell their own idle books?

Yao Yayao thought about it for a long time before he understood: Maybe some college students buy books just to cope with exams and earn experience points for upgrades. Now that the exam has been passed, the books I originally read naturally have no value and meaning!

If you haven't played an online game, you won't know how crazy gamers are about leveling up. In order to level up their game characters, they can literally give everything they have.

However, it is also a good thing that many second-hand books can be fully circulated in this way. In this way, LNST and the Water Grace Foundation, those enthusiastic old alumni of the past will not have to pay so much for friendship sponsorship to buy books.

After dinner that night, Pang Zi was the first to return to dormitory 216.

When Pang Zi saw Yao Yayao who came back with a stack of books in his hand, he asked him excitedly: "Yayao, it's been a long night, and it's lonely." I'll go to the next bedroom and call another person in the next room, and then the four of us will play the "tractor" card game, or not? ”

Yao Yayao shook his head and refused:

"I'm sorry, I had something to do at night. I just bought some books and want to go to the library in the evening. ”

Pang Zi's stunned expression seemed to shock Yao Yayao's hard work. Seeing Yao Yayao's resolute attitude, he didn't say anything more. Anyway, there are a lot of friends in the student dormitory area who like to play the "tractor" upgrade card game, and without Yao Yayao, there are no worries about the four people.

Yao Yayao quickly left the dormitory with a stack of books and went to the library to read at night.

When another roommate, Huang Jie, returned, Pang Zi also invited him to participate in a card game. Huang Jie readily agreed to join.

Pang Zi inevitably complained about Yao Yayao's unsociability: "It's only been more than a month since school started, why is he reading so early?!" Wait until the last month of the end of the semester to come to the next and get more than 60 points on those exams, which is more than enough! ”

Huang Jie somewhat understood Yao Yayao's decision, and he said empathetically:

"Yayao may want to be promoted to level 20 or above as soon as possible, so that he can participate in the inter-school city battle! After all, it is too slow to upgrade by relying on martial arts novels alone, so you can take the professional book test and upgrade with a lot of experience points. ”

After saying this, Huang Jie took out one of the two things he was holding in his hand and handed it to Pang Zi.

Pang Zi realized that Huang Jie was actually holding two small wooden frames in his hands. They're about the size of A4 paper. He hadn't noticed that.

"What's this?" Pang Zi asked puzzled.

"Teacher Fan, the grade counselor, I will give you a handmade caricature of each of mine. Yours is the "Taoyuan Three Knots", and mine is "Threesomes Must Have My Teacher". Teacher Fan hopes that the three of us in the dormitory can get along with each other friendly, actively communicate with each other, and solve any problems amicably. ”

"This is natural, although Ya Yao's personality is a little withdrawn occasionally, there is no problem with his moral character and life style!" Pang Zile said happily.

"Fatty, I went to Teacher Fan's apartment just now. Teacher Fan specially instructed me to talk to you in private, saying that there is something to try to let Ya Yao go. Don't pursue a bowl of water in everything, try to take care of him if you can tilt it. Because, Yayao is from a single-parent family, he only had a father and no mother since he was a child, and his mother died of illness very early. Huang Jie's face suddenly became very heavy. He said this in a low voice, saying that he had deliberately closed the door of the dormitory to ensure that no third person could hear him.

"Huh??" Pang Zi's jaw almost fell out of shock.

"God knows this, you know it and I know it, and it must not be known to a third person. It's my own brother's, so I should do it. Huang Jie commanded in a low voice.

"I know. Violators are thundered and struck. Pang Zi's attitude also became serious.

Then, Pang Zi muttered again: "No wonder for more than a month, few relatives, friends or classmates have come to visit him in school." Now I can understand why. ”

Huang Jie didn't say anything more, just gestured with his hand to a cartoon of "Silence is Golden" hanging next to Yi Yayao's personal desk. That handmade painting is also a masterpiece from the grade counselor, Mr. Fan.

Pang Zi nodded knowingly, and stopped talking about this matter.

That night, when the lights were about to go out in the dormitory area, Yao Yayao returned to his 216 dormitory weakly with a tired body and a pair of misty eyes that had read too much.

Reading too many books in a short period of time is really tiring.

However, Yao Yayao's character is a little stubborn. Now that you have set a short-term goal, you must accomplish it.

Yao Yayao's short-term goal is very simple: he wants to raise the level of his game character in the shortest possible time beyond his first game enemy: "Generation Tianjiao".

The Qinghua student who was outside the archway gate of Qinghua City ruthlessly insulted him!
