After crossing, I was miserable.

Chapter 162 Welcome to the World of Books

Mahjong, as a mysterious and wise game,

After a long period of development and evolution, it is deeply loved by people.

Qian Duoduo believes that no matter what era it is,

No one would refuse such an intelligent entertainment program.

She originally wanted to open a mahjong parlor on her own, but because it involved a certain degree of gambling,

She was afraid that if the news spread, some people would be overly infected.

So we just picked the one with the simplest rules and put it in the villa as appropriate entertainment.

Moreover, the mahjong here is carved from the finest white jade.

The cost is also not small, so it is not suitable for ordinary players.

Jin Er first found four servants to play a round, and explained the rules in detail during the game, so that everyone could get started in the second round.

Since there are three people in Xiao Ran's group, Jin Er is the fourth person.

Xiao Ran's friend Li Ming is also a man who loves eating, drinking and having fun, and he became addicted as soon as he heard it.

Although Xiao Ran was not very interested in this at first,

Because I understood the rules when I watched it for the first time.

Based on the principle of playing with friends, some people also play seriously.

As a result, he found that the more he played, the more interesting it became.

Because the cards you get are uncertain and different every time.

Everyone needs to formulate different strategies based on their own cards and the performance of their opponents.

Sometimes, a good hand of cards doesn't necessarily win you victory; instead, you need luck and skill to win.

This kind of uncertainty and challenge makes people dare not be distracted or underestimate it.

After a few rounds of trial play, everyone couldn't wait to use their chips to start the battle.

At this moment, they still don't know that a war without gunpowder is about to begin...

Qian Duoduo called the separate area for books "Shanhai Book Area".

There are two characteristic book pavilions here.

One is a quiet library, where silence must be maintained;

One place is the Academy of Learning where students can discuss issues and speak freely.

At this time, Qian Duoduo had already arrived at the library of the villa.

The environment here is elegant and fragrant, giving people a sense of security.

Qian Duoduo referred to the layout of the library and modern libraries here and built a total of three floors.

Books need to be moisture-proof and placed on the first floor. When there is south wind, too much moisture can easily corrode the books.

So it is set up on the second and third floors.

The first floor is set up as a study room where students can read, study and copy books.

When Qian Duoduo arrived here, he saw Zhao Houzhi and others excitedly selecting books.

It seems like they can't put every book down.

Books were like luxury goods in ancient times.

And because ancient books are not easy to preserve,

Many books are orphan copies.

So their reading material is very limited.

In this closed era, books are an important part of learning, communication and growth.

Qian Duoduo also discovered that the nobles and literati of this era,

Some of the classic literature she studied was similar to the book knowledge she knew.

Yes, for her, this is an imaginary era.

But for people of this era, this is the world and life they experience vividly.

Here, they also read "The Book of Songs", "Chu Ci", "The Analects of Confucius", "Mencius" and so on.

These works not only have high literary value,

It also contains many thoughts about life, morality and politics.

Scholars of every era have attached great importance to the quality and depth of reading.

They usually read and study these classics repeatedly.

Gain more wisdom and thoughts from it.

Although studying is not easy, they are full of love and respect for reading.

People from different classes and cultural backgrounds read different books.

Therefore, Qian Duoduo tried his best to provide some knowledge that can be used in this era.

There are not only books on the imperial examinations read by aristocrats and scholars, but also knowledge of other subjects.

Such as agronomy, animal husbandry, medicine, etc., and strive to create corresponding knowledge books for all walks of life.

Here, reading is not only a way of learning and entertainment, but also a form of self-cultivation and spiritual pursuit.

Reading can broaden your horizons, increase your knowledge and improve your cultivation.

Therefore, no matter what era, even in the materialistic modern times, reading is needed to purify people's minds.

This time, Zhao Houzhi brought about ten students.

Because Qian Duoduo told him that he built a library,

Invite them to come and have a look, and help them find out what they need.

He would see what books were missing and add them up.

And in the future, we may cooperate with the college and invite students to study.

So, this time he not only brought his classmates, but also a teacher named Kong Zhao.

This is a young teacher. If you don’t tell him that he is a teacher, you would think he is a student by looking at his appearance.

Moreover, this teacher has experience of studying abroad.

Therefore, unlike other teachers who rigidly explain the contents of the book,

He will combine his own experience and integrate some life experiences.

Analyze all the knowledge points in the book.

The lectures are lively and interesting and are very popular among students.

But Zhao Houzhi used to be a bookworm.

In addition to studying at the academy, I also copied books from the bookstore every day.

Almost no social interaction, no friends.

He also never expresses his opinions in class and is basically a invisible person.

But Kong Zhao discovered that Zhao Houzhi often discussed with his classmates recently.

Sometimes I would even ask him questions in class, which is quite a big change.

Kong Zhao knew about Zhao Houzhi's situation.

My family is poor, and I only have one mother, but my mother is not in good health.

So life was even more difficult, and he usually earned a little living expenses by copying books.

But I recently found out that

Zhao Houzhi was in a small school in the south of the city.

Teach the unwanted children there,

He also taught several students whose family backgrounds were similar to his, and there was compensation for teaching.

Out of curiosity, I wanted to have a good exchange with Zhao Houzhi.

But before he could take the initiative to find him, he came to find him.

And he invited him to visit his friend's villa.

Now Kong Zhao became even more curious, as he felt that Zhao Houzhi didn't seem to have such a rich friend.

It’s not that I look down on him, it’s just that the reality is there.

For the sake of caution and to prevent Zhao Houzhi from meeting any bad friends, he asked his doubts sincerely.

Zhao Houzhi did not hide it either.

He told the whole story of how he became friends with Qian Duoduo.

He also said that the private school in the south of the city was funded by Qian Duoduo.

Kong Zhao didn't expect there would be such a magical story, so he readily agreed to go with them.

When Kong Zhao and Zhao Houzhi arrived, Jin Si came to receive them.

Explains why Qian Duoduo didn't come.

No one was angry, but walked towards the library as if they were familiar with the route.

Although Kong Zhao was their teacher, he was not much older than them.

When I was outside, I didn't interact with them as a teacher, but as a friend.

In this era, it is an advanced cognition.

You know, teachers had an absolutely respected position in ancient times.

It's no less than taking your own father out.

But Kong Zhao was willing to do this in order to better understand his students.

None of them specifically stated his identity.

Jin Si treated him just like these students.

During the tour, Zhao Houzhi also introduced Jin Si to Kong Zhao.

He is a student selected from that private school who is good at arithmetic.

When Kong Zhao heard this, his problems as a teacher came out and he planned to test Jin Si.

I think Jin Si was studying in that small school, so he didn't dare to ask for too difficult knowledge.

But unexpectedly, Jin Si answered all the questions.

Even at the end, when Kong Zhao increased the difficulty a little, Jin Si was able to answer all of them.

This not only shocked him, but also made other students curious.

I didn't expect that he is so good at numbers at such a young age.

Jin Si was also nervous, but fortunately he did not embarrass Mr. Qian.

If you can't answer, Mr. Qian will come over later.

I don’t know how to face it, but fortunately it’s okay.

Kong Zhao is like all teachers who have good talents.

I wish Jin Si could go to study with him right away.

A few of them chatted and laughed as they arrived at the library.

Although Jin Si introduced what the current library looks like along the way,

But everyone was still excited when they saw it with their own eyes.

The level of luxury and grandeur is no less than the library of their Imperial College.

Everyone couldn't wait to go in and see what was inside.
