Chapter 1199: Mentor
Unlike other primitive worlds, most of the houses here are not wooden due to the high cost of native wood.
Rocks, as well as tactile underwater (lithified) corals, are the main building materials.
But unlike today's sturdy, well-organized houses of brick and stone and reinforced concrete, they are more like "building blocks" put together, with the rough retro beauty of ancient Greek architecture in BC.
The house that Lu Ping'an is renting now is already considered to be of the highest quality, at least the room is very spacious, and the gaps are filled with mud, and it is also coated with a layer of grease biolacquer, accompanied by a faint smell of spices.
It's just that the red "Double Happiness" paper-cut on the window not only makes Lu Ping'an feel like he has returned to 20 years ago, but also doubts whether this cultural transmission has made a mistake.
"It's kind of interesting."
Lu Ping'an closed the latest "newspaper", and now that wood is so expensive, there is a large amount of cheap paper, and it seems that some forces have spent a lot of effort.
He got up and rekindled the extinguished incense.
There was a lot of dampness and an unpleasant smell in the house, and incense became almost a necessity.
But this little point alone makes Lu Ping An feel a lot.
"My little life is much better than before, and I have begun to pursue the quality of life."
Normal people will not pursue the comfort of the room when they are not full of food and clothing.
It's like a normal politician wouldn't shout in front of the victims of the food crisis that you don't care about the environment at all.
The bed is soft, and although the fabric on the bed is not clear, the feel and warmth level are quite good.
With bookshelves, tea, and warm recliners, Lu Ping'an feels like he can stay here for a long time.
"That's the piracy."
Seeing the balance emblem of his chamber of commerce appear on the fabric, Lu Ping'an was a little surprised.
But upon closer inspection, it turned out that something was wrong.
On his side is a dove of peace with an olive branch, and on the other side is a crooked pigeon holding a rose, and the flintlock pistol is marked with gunfire, and here it is also drawn like an automatic pistol.
It seems that it should be done by the earth's fellow villagers."
Lu Ping'an sighed, there is no way to pursue and defend his rights.
It seems that it is the fellow who sees that the brand on his side is relatively hard, and directly OEM mass production.
But from another point of view, it seems that the Chamber of Commerce is doing well and has a reputation.
"I didn't copy the trademark directly, so it seems that I haven't planned to do anything about it, and it may be that I am worried about triggering something."
In this multiverse, language is powerful, not to mention "marks" and "patterns".
Casually touching a blessed emblem or mark may directly link to a high-dimensional existence behind it, and then not only may the other party come to the door, but also directly lock and curse.
"Click."
Opening the window of the room on the third floor of the hotel, listening to the people and cars below, Lu Ping'an also felt a lot.
He still didn't rush to appear in the "high-level circle", just lived silently in the crowd, waiting for everything that was about to happen.
"They hinted before that after the door was opened, there would be a wave of ruthlessness, but I don't know how ruthless it was."
The newspaper that Lu Ping'an put down was basically two months or even half a year old, and the timeliness was worrying.
But considering that the islands are still isolated from each other, and there is no such convenience as birds in this world, which may also be "foreign", this degree of delay seems to have nothing to complain about.
Lu Ping'an still hadn't contacted those "human forces", even though he had already passed by several "Lin Nu Churches", as well as the forces of local human gods.
Although a blind human can be a little eye-catching in these streets, it should not be associated with the road safety of "ten years ago" for a short time.
It is worth mentioning that Lu Ping'an actually received all kinds of extra care here, even if he explained that he "could see it", the other party still had the friendliness of "just because of humans".
Of course, there are good and bad, and there are also petty thieves who think their eyes are inconvenient and bump into them.
After all, in the current environment of low living conditions, do not expect too high a social average moral reserve.
"Today, let's go buy books again."
The most surprising thing is that although I am in a relatively large city, I can see large bookstores and quite a lot of local publications with obvious local characteristics.
Although many of the grammatical errors are confusingly printed, and the content of the books on geography, biology, and humanities related to the territory is too confusing and superficial, and there are a bunch of obvious logical errors, it is quite remarkable considering that the writers are mostly native.
In Lu Ping'an's eyes, this means that civilization has begun to sprout again.
Words carry knowledge, and the history of knowledge and historical inheritance civilization seems to be being recorded again.
This is obviously beyond Lu Ping'an's expectations, after all, ten years is not a long time, and it is a bit too much to do this, but then Lu Ping'an inquired about it, and he knew the existence of "paper-making divine grace" and "photocopying divine grace", and it was completely understandable.
"The god of culture. It's really a place where the tech tree is not enough, and magic comes to make it up. ”
It stands to reason that the revival of normal civilization may have started in a hundred years, but if the gods are really involved, they can still use various "divine graces" to jump over the technical barriers that are difficult to cross, and it is understandable that the development is so fast.
For someone Lu, waiting and observing is his most important job at the moment, and the first thing now is to understand the changes in the world through "reading". He wants to try to extract his identity and observe the world from the perspective of a spectator.
"Thus Said the Teacher". Poof, the title of this book really stinks enough, and the content in it is all clichés, and it's still the best-selling book. Oh, it's just that the ideas in it are a little interesting, and they coincide with me, but I don't feel a little too radical."
Books are the bearers of ideas, and reading bestsellers is very helpful for Lu Ping'an to understand the current "social opinion".
The current Long-Hand Clan is not the "slave race" of the past, and he is trying to find his place with them, considering that this 'philosophy book' is a best-selling book among the young Long-Hand Clan, this book has indeed helped him a lot.
is the "mentor" in it, not only does not have a specific name or even an unknown identity, but the content of it gives Lu Ping'an a very strong Eastern thought.
"Heh, or a reformist and a radical, is the mentor an earthling?"
After reasonable doubts, Lu Ping'an also looked at the next book of "Transaction Theory".
"Uh, isn't this a scaled-down version of Capital? Who is so boring and foolish? The author's signature is 'Mentor', uh, it must be that the Dongguo people are no different. Uh, no, it's not a little too radical."
