The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 925
[Chapter 925: Are you stunned?]
“How many years do we have to move bricks, plant land, and build roads before we can earn five thousand taels of silver!”
“That’s right! With five thousand taels of silver, wouldn’t it mean that we can do whatever we want? , The world is so big, I can be as free as I want!”
“That’s it, Duke An is not easy to earn. In the past, Duke An held a math competition, and all the students in Kyoto Prefecture selected the best. Many people participated, but none of them could win against An Guogong.
This time it was said to be an invention competition. Without excellent inventions, such as the improved textile machine of Wuxiu Cloth Factory, I am afraid there would be no chance of winning.”
“It makes sense. “
Once there are more people, the level of culture will also rise.
Therefore, I have a relatively thorough understanding of this announcement.
“The purpose of An Guogong holding this competition should be very clear. It is because the improved textile machines, giant kites, giant fireworks, and newspapers, such novelty things, have brought huge profits.
Therefore .
“Gong An Guo wants to use this competition to attract talents from all over the world, but
how many people in the world can invent something like that newspaper?”
a scholar said with emotion.
It turned out that one sentence explained the essence of this creation competition.
At this time, a dark-skinned young man next to him heard this and asked curiously: “Brother, tell me, if I can invent something that makes people fly in the air, can I win these five thousand taels of silver?” ?”
The scholar heard the voice, turned his head and looked at the young man, looking him up and down.
Dark skin, vicissitudes of face, rough palms.
It shows that this person is a refugee. He should have received the favor of An Guogong and recently got some errands in Kyoto Prefecture.
How can such a person invent and create anything if he doesn’t even know a single Chinese character?
If you let people fly in the sky,
wouldn’t that make you an immortal?
Even in the fairy tales, there is no such thing, right?
The scholar thought this, a smile appeared on his face, and he waved his hands and said: “If you can really invent something that allows people to fly in the sky, of course you can.
Not to mention five thousand taels, I’m afraid it’s ten thousand taels of silver. Mr. An Guo couldn’t even blink.
The question is, can you invent this thing?”
The dark boy smiled when he heard this and said, “Who can say for sure, although I haven’t tried it yet. Yes, but I have this idea, maybe it can work!”
When the scholar heard this, he looked at the young man again, and for a moment he couldn’t tell whether he was joking or serious.
Could it be that you are making fun of yourself?
When the scholar thought of this, he was too lazy to talk to him anymore. He waved his hands and said, “Since you have an idea, and since it might be possible, why are you still standing here? Why don’t you go and give it a try?
If you can really make it, then That’s five thousand taels of silver!”
When the young man heard this, he showed a simple smile and said, “Okay, brother, thank you.”
After that, he looked at the announcement again.
Then he turned around and left without stopping at all.
The scholar watched his back gradually disappear from his sight, and shook his head disdainfully.
Does this young man really think that things flying in the sky can be invented so easily?
Ah!
As expected, he is a refugee and has little knowledge!
Whimsical!
Ridiculous, ridiculous.
On the other side, when the young man rushed to the construction site, everything he had seen before kept reappearing in his mind.
He is a refugee.
My home is in Zhongyuan Road.
Although Zhongyuan Road has been much better in the past two years, it is nowhere near better than when it was hit by disasters before.
However, many relatives and friends said.
This Kyoto Prefecture is great.
You can earn a lot of money just by looking for any job.
Just building roads for others on the side of the road, it costs two taels of silver a month!
If you are strong and do a lot, you will get more money.
In addition, food and accommodation are included, and you can have a meal of meat every few days.
It is precisely because of this that while you are young, you still have some strength.
Without any hesitation, he carried his luggage and embarked on the journey to Kyoto Prefecture.
It’s the seventh day when we arrived in Kyoto Prefecture.
Everything is the same as what the relatives and friends said.
The roads in Kyoto Prefecture are very spacious, and the buildings are also very exquisite.
The people on the road are all dressed differently from those in their hometown. Just by looking at them, you can tell that they are upper-class people!
He himself also followed the guidance of his relative and found a job on the construction site moving cement and laying bricks.
Although it is a bit tiring, you can indeed earn money.
Everyone with him had received more than a dozen taels of silver.
In addition, every meal was beyond his imagination. He could have a meal of meat every two or three days.
Before coming here, he thought his relatives had lied to him.
Who would have thought it was true?
Therefore, after seeing the announcement, he felt the same as when he first heard about Kyoto Prefecture from his relatives.
At that time, he was full of excitement and curiosity.
Is Kyoto Prefecture really as good as my relatives said?
Can you really earn so much money?
Can you really find a job?
At that time, although he was full of doubts about himself and the future, he still resolutely embarked on this path.
Today, the same situation exists.
Is this Creation Conference really going to have a prize of five thousand taels of silver as the elder brother said?
Can you really earn so much money?
Can you really do it yourself?
This time, he doubted himself even more.
However, when he thought about the path he had traveled, he suddenly became determined again.
Since you have already done it yourself when you come to Kyoto Prefecture, what’s the point of tinkering with a novel gadget and participating in this so-called Creation Conference?
Thinking this way, he had already made a decision.
As soon as I returned to the construction site, I found a small bench and sat down.
He did nothing but carefully observed the birds on the branches by the roadside.
How the bird flaps its wings and soars from the branches.
How the two soles of the feet move, how the two legs move.
How does the head move while flapping its wings?
He paid close attention to every detail.
Even if he flaps his wings, he still has to observe it a dozen times.
Then look at another place
where you sit like this and just look at it.
More than half an hour.
Soon, someone discovered something was wrong with him.
He poked the person next to him, pointed at the young man, and whispered: “That young man from the Central Plains Road, his name is Cui Liu. He has been standing there for more than half an hour, just staring at the tree and doing nothing. .
It was completely different from the past few days. At that time, he was rushing to do everything.
Could it be that he was crazy?”
