Chapter 68 School Bully 63
Li Ruisi glanced vaguely at Jiang Chan, who was watching his nose and heart. He had not forgotten the way Jiang Chan directed Uncle Zhong and Ma Li to circle around just now. Now it seems that who came up with this printing technology
Need I say more?
But since he was hiding it, why should he be such a bad person? Li Ruisi pretended to be confused and laughed: "Jinzhi, if you do this, this book will no longer be valuable in the future."
Jiang Sen calmed down and said, "Wouldn't it be nice not to be valuable? This way, people can afford books more. How expensive were books in the past?"
Li Ruisi narrowed his eyes, "This is a major event that benefits the country and the people. It's best to submit it."
Seeing that the next remarks were no longer suitable for them to listen to, Jiang Chan immediately helped Lin up and led Uncle Zhong and Wang Ma out of the hall. Lin patted Jiang Chan on the back of her hand and said, "Just give the credit to your father.
, don’t feel bad?”
Jiang Chan was very calm: "Dad, those who are capable work hard. Besides, this was done by my father himself. It has nothing to do with me. I don't know anything."
Mrs. Lin had no choice but to push Jiang Chan's temper, so she nodded Jiang Chan's head: "Okay, you little naughty boy, I'll go to the kitchen to check first. Your father's friend must have left food today.
.”
According to Lin's knowledge, it is natural to see how far-reaching the impact of movable type printing will be after it is popularized. First of all, it will greatly reduce the price of books, and the burden on students will be greatly reduced.
Secondly, more people will have the opportunity to come into contact with books, and the trend of learning will definitely develop. Finally, everyone will become more and more reasonable, which is the best.
Jiang Chan wished she could be alone now. She didn't expect Jiang Sen's friends to come to the house. She imagined that Jiang Sen would wait for everything to be done before communicating with his friends.
How did you know that Jiang Sen himself had been discovered by others? Fortunately, Jiang Sen was quite tight-lipped and did not tell her. In such an era that is harsh on women, Jiang Chan does not think that it is a good thing to be famous.
.
Jiang Sen doesn't have an official position. If she becomes too famous, the Jiang Sen family won't be able to protect her. It's better to push Jiang Sen to the front like now.
After all, he is a master of civil engineering, and he has good friends from his classmates. His connections over the years are not in vain. In addition, Jiang Sen is not without his desire to give it a try, so this matter is on Jiang Sen's head.
That's the best of both worlds.
In the past, Jiang Sen was really indifferent to fame and fortune. Now that Jiang Sen is expected to have an heir, how can he not think about saving some family property to leave to his son and daughter? Jiang Chan can also understand what Jiang Sen means. In the past, he felt that he had no ambition, but now
With Bentou, people's ambitions will rise.
Jiang Chan doesn't think Jiang Sen's idea is wrong. As an adopted daughter who takes refuge in Jiang Sen's name, she will be better off only if Jiang Sen is better, although she does not mean that she cannot live without Jiang Sen's family.
Moreover, Jiang Sen and Lin treated her sincerely. In this case, Jiang Chan would be happy to allow Jiang Sen to climb up the ladder. This was a mutually beneficial good thing.
To take a step back, even if the spread of movable type printing can bring about a small change in the world, Jiang Chan feels that it is very worthwhile.
It is difficult to change things in one's life. It is more about adapting to the world by changing oneself. If the world really changes in the slightest because of oneself, then it is enough to prove that she has been in this world before.
Yes, Jiang Chan is not afraid of death or illness. What she is afraid of is being forgotten. She is afraid that she will leave this world once, but when she leaves, no one will remember her. This is her
unacceptable.
With these messy thoughts in mind, Jiang Chan returned to her room. She might as well read her book in peace, and let Jiang Sen have a headache about the things outside. He was probably in pain and happy at the same time.
Jiang Sen was indeed in pain and happiness. Within half a month, the county magistrate sent the commendation sent by the superiors. This was handed over through the county magistrate Li Ruoyu's note, and when it was delivered, Long Yan was delighted.
Because Jiang Sen did not hold an official position, the rewards given by the superiors were land, money, etc. Jiang Sen was rewarded with a total of 300 acres of fertile land, which belonged only to Jiang Sen himself and had nothing to do with the Jiang family.
In addition, he was rewarded with two thousand taels of silver. Jiang Sen gave it to Jiang Chan without blinking an eye, and Jiang Chan conveniently handed it to Mrs. Lin. In this roundabout way, the silver was returned to Jiang Sen's pocket, and everyone was happy.
This is a visible reward, but the invisible reward is still there. With the spread of movable type printing, the wealth left to Jiang Sen and his descendants is the most precious.
Jiang Sen ate meat, and several of his friends drank soup. After all, they added many small details of the printing process, and it can be said that they also put in a lot of effort.
In this way, everyone seeks benevolence and gets benevolence. What is important is not the rewards such as silver, but the most important thing is that the reputation of the scholar can be spread. Isn't reputation the most important thing in the world?
Although the Jiang family received no apparent benefit from this commendation, the Jiang family still held a grand ancestral hall. The elder great-uncle burned incense and prayed tremblingly, telling his ancestors about this grand event.
Time passed slowly, and winter arrived in the blink of an eye. Lin's body became heavier and heavier, and Jiang Chan was extremely worried, wishing she could look at the old doctor all day long.
As she grew up, she had rarely been this close to a pregnant woman. Seeing Lin's belly growing like a balloon, Jiang Chan was really frightened.
The same was true for Jiang Sen. A man who had never been a father was so worried that he couldn't sleep all night long. Lin was already slim, and with such a big belly, it was shocking to everyone who looked at her.
Mrs. Lin was amused by the arrogance of the father and daughter. She was obviously the one with the heaviest burden, but the two of them had lost a lot of weight, which made people feel mixed emotions.
Mrs. Lin was also calm about the baby in her belly. The old doctor originally expected the baby to be born at the end of the year, but the whole family was so prepared that it was postponed until the second day of the new year.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, as usual in previous years, I would go to Jingye Temple to donate sesame oil money. This year I was unable to make the trip due to health issues, so Mrs. Lin sent Jiang Chan to Jingye Temple.
Little did they know that not long after Jiang Chan and Zhou Xing left home, Mrs. Lin started to activate the baby. The baby was born quickly, and a little boy was born in less than an hour.
