The Bookish Scholar of the Red Mansion

The weather was still cold. When Chen Heng arrived at the camp, the huge sun hung above his head, and golden light shone on the simple houses of the refugees, making everything bright and dazzling.

What makes people particularly happy is that in the gaps between the wooden house and the tent, there are several smoke rising slowly. It seems that someone is not satisfied with eating porridge every day and is improving the food for his family.

This is the credit of Wei Yinghong and Lin Ruhai. After the refugees rushed to the west of the city, they offered to pay some wages to the refugees as soon as possible.

In order to allow the refugees to celebrate the New Year better, Wei Yinghong reduced the time for wages to every five days. Even if you don't get much, it's enough to keep the women at home busy.

What people fear most is not having too much to do, but having nothing to do.

Now Yangzhou has sufficient food stocks, and Suzhou, Hangzhou and other places are supporting it. As long as the refugees do not take the initiative to cause trouble, the charity warehouses that have been prepared since September will be enough for them to survive until next spring.

If the coming year is a good time.

When Chen Heng came to the greenhouse, his classmates were discussing the matter.

Their topic has jumped from 'Will there be floods?' to 'What to do with spring plowing if floods come?'

Seeing that everyone was having an exciting discussion, Chen Heng quietly found a seat in the back and sat quietly outside, watching Du Yunjing and Cui Youdao debate.

Both of these people are smart people, but their smartness is more like that of Chen Heng's fresh graduates from college in his previous life. All his talents lie in knowledge, but when he really wants to look at and deal with a matter, he still feels a little more bookish.

Intelligence and wisdom are just like the relationship between talent and talent. Although the former is a gifted ability, it is often the latter that can truly lead a person to the top.

If talent is compared to beautiful fireworks that pass by in an instant, then talent is like the everlasting sun and moon, which lasts forever and can shine for a lifetime.

For smart people, what they need most is experience.

When one transforms experience into experience and understands the connection between everything in the world and people, it is time for a person to make a career.

Du Yunjing and Cui Youdao are undoubtedly the ones who have grown the most. Chen Heng can feel from the issues they discussed that their perspective on the problem is already higher than others.

Chen Heng listened for a while, and the topic of the group turned to how to deal with waterlogging. The warm atmosphere in the shed really reminded him of his past leisure time when he was studying.

But Chen Heng was happy when he heard it, but Du Yunjing noticed his figure. He quickly smiled and stretched out his hand, pointing to the crowd, We have been talking to ourselves for a long time, why don't we let this lazy guy come up and talk to us again.

Everyone turned their heads and saw Chen Heng who was trying to hide, and they all started to make noises.

Although they didn't know some things clearly, they could still see the changes in the camp and the government office since Chen Heng took charge.

Although I still don’t understand the relationship between Chen Heng’s role, it does not hinder everyone’s appreciation of Chen Heng.

Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements. This person named Chen is a person who can plan, decide and work together.

Chen Heng couldn't help but walked to the stage amidst everyone's cheers. He coughed lightly and decided to express his thoughts on the previous questions.

I think waterlogging will come, but it's hard to say how big it will be.

Chen Heng said it very confidently, and he was not without aim.

This involves a piece of geographical knowledge from the past. The earth is round, and the equator is subject to greater radiation from the sun, so the temperature is higher. After the hot air rises to the sky, it moves to the poles of the earth. Therefore, the tropics can be understood as a set of Grilled lamp on the ring of earth.

This ring is like a cover. Wherever it goes, it squeezes the air under it, forming a short-lived high-pressure area, which is what is called subtropical high pressure in geography class.

The role of subtropical high pressure is to suppress evaporated water vapor and prevent it from rising and condensing into rain. This is also the origin of severe droughts. But these increased moisture will not disappear for no reason, they have been gathering under the ring.

As soon as it recedes, the water vapor will rise directly, forming a rare heavy rain.

But after all, Chen Heng couldn't express the knowledge in his mind directly. He thought for a while and used a reason that was more acceptable to the world. He connected the disasters in the past dynasties and said the arguments about rain in The Book of Rain. .

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little strange. Someone immediately asked: What is this Xiangyu Book? Why have I never heard of it?

Chen Heng was immediately dumbfounded. He found this book in the Lin family's library. He thought it was interesting and read it, but he didn't expect that someone didn't know about it.

It was written by Huang Zifa from the Tang Dynasty. I only heard that it is hidden in the Qintian Prison in the capital. Brother, I wonder where you found this book? Can you lend it to me for a look?

This book belongs to an elder. I don't dare to make my own decision. I'll ask after I go back. Chen Heng didn't dare to agree. Although the book was hidden in a corner, it might not be Uncle Lin's favorite.

This classmate is very sorry. Scholars like them are always itchy when encountering such a rare and unique book.

After such an interruption, everyone was obviously more curious about Xiang Yu Shu than Water Disaster.

Everyone urged Chen Heng to talk about the contents of the book. The matter was easy to handle, so Chen Heng picked some simple and easy-to-understand knowledge points.

From how to look at the wind and clouds, to how dense the rain is, it was novel and interesting for everyone to hear, and there were many thoughtful people who took out pens and paper to record it.

After Chen Heng talked eloquently for a while, he encountered several homeless people who came to ask about things.

Everyone then stood up and only asked before leaving.

Brother, it doesn't matter if you can't borrow the book. Can you tell us more tomorrow?

That's right, Senior Brother, I think what you said is simple and thorough. It might be easier than reading the book myself.

In fact, it is not surprising that the students in several academies were excited. The masters only taught the Four Books and Five Classics. Regarding extracurricular knowledge, they still had to rely on their own study to supplement it. For example, Salt and Iron Theory, Shui Jing Zhu, and this time Xiang Yu Shu.

If you want to expect every master to be proficient in these, it is undoubtedly a fool's errand.

Chen Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had no choice but to agree.

Seeing this, the students dispersed happily.

When they left, Chen Heng saw Xue Biao and others waiting for him. Jiang Yuanbai rushed up and complained on the spot, Okay, brother Heng, you are secretly reading a book from us again.

When I was watching in the dormitory, I didn't hide from you. Chen Heng spread his hands, his face full of innocence.

Next time you read something, I will bring your book and read the title first. Jiang Yuanbai couldn't help but shook his head and said with some sadness and anger.

Xue Biao smiled and patted Jiang Yuanbai on the back, Okay, okay, even if Brother Heng gives you the book, you will read it for a few days and then throw it aside.

Jiang Yuanbai was dumbfounded, glanced at Xue Biao up and down, and said, Brother Xue Biao, are you really comforting me?

Hahahaha, let's go, let's go outside and patrol. Qian Dayou pushed the two of them behind him. He was wearing very thick clothes today and had a gong hanging on his waist. He looked very interesting.

On the way, Chen Heng told them about Miss Zhen again.

After they learned about each other's relationship with Jia Yucun, they couldn't help but feel that their fate was clever.

As the topic continued, it turned to Xu Mazi again.

Is there any news from the government office?

I heard that the investigation is still ongoing. There should be one or two salt merchants involved. I'm afraid there will be no results in a while.

Don't you have any news from the people at the newspaper shop?

Even if there is, I'm afraid it won't be publicized.

By the way, Brother Heng, there is something I need you to be careful about. Xue Biao suddenly said to Chen Heng, I went home yesterday and heard from my father that there are many underground banks in Yangzhou city that are secretly giving money to illegals. The people lend interest.”

What?! Chen Heng frowned when he heard this, but he felt helpless when he thought about it.

After all, this kind of thing between you and me is not easy to deal with in this era. He thought for a while and said, Forget about the serious origin. If you have the idea of ​​​​deception and abduction, find a way to expose their methods through newspapers. Talk to the refugees.

Okay, I'll go back and tell daddy. Xue Biao nodded.

These rats are really like the gang of national thieves and ghosts in the capital. They lie on the people and suck blood. It makes people want to kill them all with their swords.

Jiang Yuanbai was filled with indignation after hearing this. Among the refugees were a large number of people who had fled from the capital. Through their stories and spread through newspapers, Yangzhou people also knew about the outrageous prices in the capital and the behavior of wealthy families hoarding goods to make money.

The emergence of newspapers is quietly changing the way and speed at which people receive news. Ordinary people can know more and more distant news with less money than before.

From the moment a person is born, he has a desire for unknown exploration and information. The so-called wealthy families, while occupying massive resources, also set up information barriers.

So that people outside can neither see nor hear.

The gap between people, apart from their intelligence, is the only barrier to information.

But it doesn't matter, some things are like lights before dawn. As long as the seeds are in the soil, sooner or later they will grow into big trees in the sky.

Chen Heng lowered his head silently and hurried on. He actually wanted to know the news about Guangzhou more than the wealthy people in the capital.

Does the glass that can bring foreigners over there indicate a broader world?

Are there any other so-called Guangzhou Thirteen Banks?

Or it has been changed to another name, I really want to see it.

…………

That night, Chen Heng returned home and was sitting at home reviewing his homework. The two younger brothers suddenly ran in excitedly and pointed to the door.

Brother, it's snowing. It's snowing.

The first snow in December came so early.

Hahahaha, the extra chapter may be late. There will be extra chapters for several female protagonists, don’t worry, but they won’t be written together. Thank you in advance for the poem Wang Shu wrote for Xiangling.
