Ask Sword

"Can you get credits for excellent speech in class?"

"In Chang'an City, you can get credits for being a good person and doing good deeds."

"So many credits can be obtained by publishing in the academic journals?"

Once the rules of the credit system were announced, the freshmen impatiently gathered in front of the notice board, or held the paper with the rules and instructions, and talked about it.

As freshmen, they have adapted to life in the academy during this time, but there are still too many inconveniences.

For example, a large number of books in Zangshuge cannot be borrowed, or even read in Zangshuge.

You can't go to the back mountain to hang out during non-school hours, you can't just enter the forge or greenhouse, and you have only visited Dongjun Building once-at the beginning of the school year, you were taken by the fourth prince Li Hui to visit the school palace, and you watched from a distance outside Dongjun Building .

The purpose of these regulations is not to discriminate against new students, but to protect them—most of the new students have just stepped into cultivation and have no self-protection ability. Even a piranha in the greenhouse may cause them harm.

Of course, the purpose of establishing the school is to cultivate more and more useful talents for the State of Yu.

If there are disciples who perform well and progress rapidly in practice, then these prohibitions can naturally be relaxed appropriately - in the form of credits.

"The more credits a disciple gets, the less restrictions there will be inside the academy.

If the disciple has a reasonable plan, he can even consume credits and apply for using the resources of the academy to carry out inventions and science experiments. "

When Li Ang saw the rules, his eyes lit up.

Yang Yu murmured, "I heard that the 20-foot-wide arch bridge built in Yanzhou a few years ago was a disciple of the academy who returned to his hometown and saw that it was difficult for the villagers to cross the river, so he designed the blueprint of the bridge by himself and applied for resource allocation. , built."

"And brewing."

Li Wei added: "There was a brother before who thought it was too wasteful to use grain to make wine.

Using grapes and other fruits to make wine will make farmers take the initiative to plant fruits and abandon rice, which will lead to an increase in food prices, so they want to use other materials, such as straw, to make wine.

After tossing and tossing, hundreds of thousands of guan were wasted back and forth, but still failed to produce results-and the hundreds of thousands of guan were not entirely borne by him, but part of it was reimbursed by the academy.

The rest is also borne by the big firm that employs him. "

"Oh? That's true."

Li Ang's eyes flashed brightly, he just rejected the patent buyout of three million coins,

Although the way of patent licensing can also make money, the efficiency and total amount will be lower.

‘It’s really considerate of the Academy to be able to use public funds for experiments. '

Li Ang squeezed the palm of his hand, used the credits to prostitute resources, applied for the experiment, and could return more credits after the experiment was successful.

Even sell it as a patent to make money.

It is simply a perpetual motion machine.

Other students are still dreaming about earning credits, then stepping into the third floor of Zangshuge, which is not allowed for freshmen,

And Li Ang was already thinking about how to collect the school's wool faster and more efficiently.

Don't squeeze white, don't squeeze.

"Attention everyone, I just received a notice,"

The young instructor named Yu Yenong (a graduate student who is a year older than Cheng Juxiu and the others, stayed at the school to serve as an instructor) clapped his hands to wake up the freshmen, "Tomorrow everyone's sword course will be the same as the engineering course. Go together.

The location is in the forging workshop by the Chuyun Lake. "

"Um?"

"Two classes together?"

The freshmen were puzzled, and Pei Jing stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Yu, have the contents of these two classes been combined?"

"right."

Yu Yenong nodded and said: "Tomorrow, His Majesty and the Empress will come to inspect the school and inspect the academic status of the new students as usual.

Tomorrow's fencing class will be taught by Cui Siye from fencing,

Tantai Siye of engineering and talismanology,

Xi Siye, who is studying,

The three divisions counseled together.

The content is the enlightenment of flying swords - everyone has to find materials and forge swords in the forging workshop by themselves,

And find a way to make the sword fly - the faster and higher you fly, the better. "

"this"

As soon as Yu Yenong finished speaking, a large number of students, including Li Wei, turned pale.

His Majesty and the Queen came to inspect the school, but these two were not the only ones.

His majesty and queen are all here, and the head of the mountain and the sacrificial wine will be there no matter what.

The Shanzhang Jijiu was present, and the other doctors in the academy had to attend anyway.

The Doctors of the Academy were dispatched, so naturally some of the important court officials had to show up to show their importance.

The freshmen have been taking the course for more than a month. It would be too embarrassing if they couldn't even fly their swords in front of His Majesty, Queen, Shanzhang Jijiu, and civil and military officials.

It is easy to be suspected of wasting the resources of the academy and the number of admissions.

You must know that after graduation, many of the disciples of the Academy will serve in the Six Departments, and no one wants to have a lively black history in front of future officials and colleagues.

Seeing the uneasy expressions on the faces of the freshmen, Yu Yenong comforted him, "Don't worry, it's just a supervisor class.

As long as you don't cry on the spot. "

It was fine if Yu Yenong didn't say that, but after he said that, more people started to fidget.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I almost forgot to say,"

Yu Yenong hurriedly added: "In order to make the scene look better, there will be a lot of advanced forging materials in the forging workshop tomorrow.

Such as fine gold, black iron, mountain copper and other metals.

There are also materials such as 500-year-old peach wood and monster humerus.

There shouldn't be a situation where the flying sword can't fly -- no matter how bad it is to fly the whole peach tree, it's still considered a flying sword. "

However, Yu Yenong's consolation did not have any effect, and the freshmen were still quite anxious.

"Fine gold, dark iron, and mountain copper."

Li Ang took a deep breath, and his thoughts changed sharply. Some time ago, through continuous experiments, he was able to consume spiritual power and control Mosi not to devour the silver ingots at close range.

But if the whole room is full of precious metals such as fine gold and black iron, and I have to touch it

Will Mosi really not lose control?

'You have to find a way to control it. '

Li Ang put down the paper explaining the credit system with a calm expression, and quickly thought of a solution.

————

With the ringing of the Haotian bell, the school day is over,

Li Ang brought back the claret horse from the racecourse, stepped on the stirrups, and returned to Chang'an.

In the evening, Li Ang received a second letter from Weizhou, sent by Aunt Song, and there were still 1,500 guan in it.

In addition, the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce headed by Jin Wusuan also sent a flying ticket of 20,000 Guan as an advance payment for patent authorization.

This is the first money for soap, soap, cotton wool,

Afterwards, the patent fee income will have to wait until the major firms complete the income settlement every month, and have passed the double audit of the Ministry of Accounts and the Academy.

So there will be a delay of one to two months.

"Smooth and long flow is good"

Li Ang sighed, and glanced at Chai Cuiqiao—she was staring at the ten stacked 2,000-pass flying tickets, her eyes were already staring straight.

"Hey, wake up."

Li Ang stretched out his finger and flicked Chai Cuiqiao's forehead lightly.

"Hey."

Chai Cuiqiao covered her forehead, but her eyes were still fixed on the two thousand guan flying money, "Twenty thousand guan, twenty thousand guan.

Young master, which prime minister did you agree to be the door-to-door son-in-law? "

"What kind of door-to-door son-in-law, can you talk?"

Li Ang rolled his eyes, "If you want to do it, you will be the son-in-law of the Dragon King."

Chai Cuiqiao tilted her head, "What is that?"

"A magical creature where people kneel down and give money wherever they go, and dignitaries give gifts at every meal, shocking the father-in-law and mother-in-law for a whole year."

Li Ang casually complained, and said: "This is the first patent fee for soap, scented soap, and absorbent cotton.

In the future, the water will flow slowly, and there will be tens of thousands of water every month.

It depends on the soap or something, and how it can be sold. "

"Thousands and tens of thousands per month."

Chai Cuiqiao opened her mouth in astonishment, as if countless flying tickets were floating in front of her eyes.

Li Ang said with a smile: "Did you ever think about it when you were young, if everyone in the country gave me a penny each?"

Chai Cuiqiao subconsciously said: "Can you become a rich man?"

"No, the national census can be done in an instant."

Li Ang pursed his lips and rubbed Chai Cuiqiao's hair, "Is there any food in the kitchen? Cook first, I'll go out and do some shopping."

"There are dishes in the kitchen."

Chai Cuiqiao, who was still wondering about the definition of the national census, nodded, "Master, what are you going to buy?"

Li Ang said naturally: "If you have money, of course you must first buy some gold and silver jewelry for my dear."

"Huh--"

With a blushing face, Chai Cuiqiao hammered Li Ang's shoulder in a circle, and ran to the kitchen in a happy mood,

Li Ang, on the other hand, took the flying ticket and went out with some confusion.

He did want to buy gold and silver.

Tomorrow's sword learning course, His Majesty's Empress, Shan Zhang Jijiu, civil and military ministers will all attend, and the most terrible thing is that Xi Yangyu, who is a student, is also there.

When Cheng Juxiu returned to Chang'an last time, he had already said that Xi Yangyu and Pu Liuxuan had indeed had a deep hatred.

Xi Yangyu made things difficult for Li Ang on purpose when he was taking the exam in the academy, and it was also because of Pu Liuxuan's relationship that he hated Wu and Wu.

Li Ang, who was riding on the horse, rubbed his brows with some headaches. Xi Yangyu will be there for tomorrow's class, so it's hard to say whether he will secretly rub the ground——

There are too many methods for masters in the Candle Heaven Realm to target new students.

‘Five paths of talisman, technique, sword, mind, and body, the ones I am most gifted in happen to be talisman and mind learning.

If you want to study further, you will inevitably have to come into contact with Xi Yangyu, the secretary of the academy.

We can only take one step at a time. '

Li Ang rode a horse and came to the West Market, and bought some gold and silver ingots from the gold shop with the flying ticket.

Go to the jewelry store and buy some gold and silver jewelry,

And using the gold and silver ingots he brought, he made an appointment to order special-made precious jewelry.

It took a total of 18,000 guan, and was escorted by the guards of the gold and silver shop all the way back home.

This is what Li Ang came up with, a reasonable explanation of why he loves gold and silver so much - to create a persona for himself and Chai Cuiqiao who like expensive luxury goods.

Scholar-bureaucrats, it's normal to be extravagant.

'I am a disciple of the academy, and I am the number one student in the entrance examination. I will be recognized wherever I go, and my words and deeds will be remembered.

Buying some gold and silver secretly and incognito will arouse suspicion.

It's better to show that you love luxury goods generously. '

Li Ang returned home with boxes of luxury goods worth thousands of guan, and gave them to Chai Cuiqiao who was cooking. The latter jumped up happily, jumped into Li Ang's arms, and let Li Ang hug her around in a circle.

"Come down quickly come down."

Li Angsheng was afraid that he might hurt her because of his too much strength, so he quickly put Chai Cuiqiao down, grinning his teeth, "Are you fatter than before?"

"Eh? Is there?"

Chai Cuiqiao, who was still holding a cooking spoon in her hand, looked shocked, looked down at herself, and muttered, "I don't think so. I used to eat in Weizhou and couldn't get fat."

"Maybe the food in Chang'an is more oily."

Li Ang clapped his palms without changing his expression, "You can wear these jewelry when you go to women's club activities in the future. I will buy more in the future.

Didn't you often say that the ladies of Jinchengfang all wear gold and silver? "

"Well, I was just kidding"

Chai Cuiqiao hesitated to put down the cooking spoon, looked at the precious jewelry on the table, pursed her lips and said, "Master, I think it's better for us to be more frugal.

Those ladies and ladies, they only became friends with me at the beginning because of your face.

I wear Xiuyu bracelets, and they also boast non-stop.

Don't buy me such expensive jewelry in the future. "

"No, if you earn money and still live on, it will be detrimental to the dignity of the school."

Li Ang said without changing his expression, "It's enough to finish this dish, I'll go back to the bedroom and lie down for a while."

"Um."

Chai Cuiqiao watched Li Ang's back disappear around the corner, took a deep breath, and carefully poked the corners of those exquisite and expensive jewelry with her fingers, for fear of getting the oil on her palms.

Li Ang, who returned to the bedroom, let out a foul breath, took out a large box of gold and silver and put it on the table. Hearing Chai Cuiqiao's small exclamation in the kitchen, he felt an inexplicably strange sense of guilt.

Like the kind of scumbag who bought his mistress some expensive bags and clothes, and then gave his wife a discounted lipstick when he got home

"What are you thinking about?"

Li Ang shook his head, throwing the messy thoughts out of his mind.

Mosi is neither gold, nor silver, nor iron, nor copper, nor even organic matter,

As for Chai Cuiqiao, it is already difficult to locate her because she has been together for too long.

"Let's think about how to deal with tomorrow's sword learning class."

Li Ang poured the gold and silver on the table, released the spiritual energy, controlled the moss to pierce the skin, and slowly devoured the gold and silver, "I hope this will be useful."

The gold and silver ingots worth 15,000 guan were quickly consumed and reduced by Mosi's devouring.

And the moss itself was gradually stained with an imperceptible layer of dark gold.

"It feels like the aura is flowing more smoothly?"

When all the gold and silver on the table were wiped away, Li Ang clenched his palms uncertainly, and pushed lightly from a distance towards the bedroom window not far ahead.

clatter——

The breeze picked up and pushed open the bedroom window.

"Spiritual energy coming out through the body, is this the body hiding place?"

Li Ang glanced at his palm in astonishment, the moss on the palm did not retract under the skin as before,

Instead, it covers the surface of the palm, like a pitch-black glove.

An idea suddenly popped into Li Ang's mind, he pulled out the dagger at his waist, and stabbed lightly at his palm.

clang--

When the tip of the dagger touched the surface of the moss glove, there was a crisp sound of interlacing gold and iron.

indestructible.
