Xin dispersed the crowd again and invited Yuan Shouguo and Su He into the main hall of the township school with a smile.
"Sikong was amused. Xinyi is located in a remote area, and the villagers have little fun during their spare time in farming. They often cause trouble, so I made up some stories to tell them."
"I see..."
Yuan Shouguo breathed a sigh of relief. He also secretly thought that this man named Wang Teng was really powerful. He was worthy of the status of an emperor. He could be revived even after being cut into pieces!
Naturally, he didn't know that these stories were all online novels and anime that Xin You read in his previous life...
Although he could not spread more knowledge to the Chinese people, Xin attracted the attention of the Chinese people in this way.
The lonely and weird Xin You used to be has disappeared.
He was replaced by a doctor who was full of stories and could get along well with the people of the country.
The people's hearts in Xinyi slowly began to change.
The spiritual life has been filled with the stories of Xinyi, and what is left is the improvement of material life.
"Sir Sikong, you finally came to our Xinyi, could you please have a 'pause'? I still have many questions that I would like to ask the doctor," Xin said again.
"Forgive me, Doctor Yi, but I have important matters to attend to, and I would like to borrow a room in the cottage so that I, the planner, can work quickly."
Yuan Shouguo's mind was completely focused on his own task, and he had no other interests at all.
After hearing this, Xin took the two of them to a relatively spacious room, where oil lamps were already lit.
"It's so late. I wonder what other important matters Master Sikong has that can't wait until tomorrow?"
"People of Xin don't know that the emperor is going to build a new city in Zhou Dynasty. Lord Sikong is currently coordinating the manpower and material resources of various villages in Wangji. He is very busy." Yuan congratulated.
"Building a new city of Zhou?" Xin You has not heard the news yet.
However, based on his memories from his previous life, he still has some understanding of Chengzhou City.
Chengzhou City was an extremely important city in the history of Zhou Dynasty.
After King Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty, in order to control the east, he started to build cities in the Central Plains and near Luoyang.
Duke Zhou was responsible for this matter. After the city was completed, it was named "Chengzhou".
There was a nobleman named "He" who cast a bronze statue and carved an inscription to record this incident.
The inscription reads: Yu Qi's home is in China, and he is here to serve the Yi people.
The word "China" has been around since then.
After the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, this great city gradually declined.
The royal family of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty found another place in Luoshui to build the current "Imperial City".
Occasionally, the city is also called "Chengzhou".
After the Prince Chao Rebellion began, the Prince Chao occupied the royal city, while Ji Gai, King of Zhou Jing, hid in Diquan City.
Although Wang Zichao has left the royal city, his remnants are still there, and Ji Gai has been hiding in Diquan City.
The "Xinchengzhou" that Sikong Yuan Shouguo wanted to build was built on the basis of Diquan City.
"Does the emperor no longer know the royal city?" Xin asked knowingly.
"It should be." Yuan Shou did not hide anything: "Diquan City has been garrisoned by Jin troops for the past four or five years. In August of this year, the emperor sent Fu Ping and Shi Zhang to envoy Jin to request Jin.
The state built a city wall for Diquan and expanded the city."
"Oh... building the city can indeed be completed in one go. The Jin State does not need to send troops, and the emperor does not have to worry about the princes causing chaos." Xin added: "It would be a good thing if the princes can be summoned to come to help."
"What I'm saying is that the Jin Kingdom thinks so too." Yuan He interrupted: "During the winter moon, the princely states will all sworn their cities in Diquan."
Xin You felt something in his heart. The Jin State had summoned so many vassal states, and it was obvious that it wanted to reassert its hegemony.
After all, Chu was in chaos and Wu was rising. This was a good opportunity for Jin to regain hegemony.
If Xinyi can participate in such a big event...
Just as he was thinking about it, Xin You saw that Yuan Shouguo had already taken out a baggage and opened it.
He took out a lot of calculation chips and some bundled bamboo slips and silk satin.
While laying out his plans, he chatted with Xin You: "The construction of the city this time has not been smooth sailing. Many people are opposed to it. If anything goes wrong, Duke Liu and Dr. Chang Hong will not be able to explain to the princes."
"Yuan He, hurry up and help with the work. We can talk about these things later." Yuan Shou said without looking up.
A workaholic.
Xin You thought to himself.
I saw Yuan Shouguo playing with the calculation chips and looking at the records on the bamboo slips.
Yuan He held the lamp and began to help Yuan Shouguo calculate these data.
I saw Yuan Shouguo quickly placing the counters on the ground. Some of them were picked up as soon as he put them down.
After picking it up, he would read out the corresponding numbers and then lay out a new set of calculation chips.
"Awesome..." Xin couldn't help but say.
Just by looking at the way Yuan Shouguo arranges his calculations, you can tell that he is a master in this way.
"A gentleman also knows how to plan?"
Yuan He couldn't help but ask.
"The Xin family is a descendant of the eldest son, and all the family heads in the past generations are very knowledgeable. How can they be ignorant of such trivial things?" Yuan Shouguo said while calculating.
"Doctor Sikong, can I help you?" Xin asked again.
"That's great of course!" Yuan Shou said without even raising his head.
Yuan He placed the lamp on the ground, and then took out a pile of bamboo slips from Yuan Shouguo's pocket.
"These are the people, cattle and horses of Qiancheng, Quesheng and Shenyi. We need to calculate an exact number." Yuan He said.
Yuan Shou said: "The doctor will do his best. Anyway, it won't be finished in a while. I will go to Ganlu tomorrow to find two more planners, which should be enough!"
Yuan Shouguo has served as Sikong for many years and has rich experience in the operation of these things.
I already have an estimate in mind as to when it will be completed.
Xin didn't say anything. He took the bamboo slips handed over by Yuan Shou and started to calculate.
The calculation is not complicated, but the amount is very large. After all, this thing is not very complicated.
Xin took another stick and began to draw on the ground.
Soon, Xin put down the bamboo slips in his hand and took another bamboo slips.
Yuan Shouguo and Yuan He were still calculating other matters and ignored Xin You.
This bamboo slip is mainly used to calculate the flags used around a certain road. The length of the road and the specifications of the flags have been measured.
Soon, Xin finished counting another portion.
The bamboo slips were piled there, and after each calculation, Xin would record a line of numbers on a piece of sheepskin next to them.
The data of Yuan Shou Guo was recorded on a piece of silk cloth.
Not long after, Yuan Shouguo stopped his calculations.
His waist hurt and his eyes were blurry.
But looking at the numbers on the brocade in his hand, he felt very satisfied.
"Doctor Xinyi, please take a rest!" Yuan Shouguo stretched out: "It won't be finished for a while."
With that said, he walked up to Xin You.
At this time, Xin You was calculating the earthwork used for the last certain road. Yuan Shouguo had just walked over, and Xin You had also completed the calculation.
Yuan lived a long life
He looked at Xin You like a monster.
"Lord Sikong, what's wrong?"
Xin stopped again.
"You...what kind of planning method are you using? Why don't you use calculations?"
Yuan Shou aisle.
"An algorithm...that I have studied since childhood."
Xin You did not tell the truth.
How can the vertical format of the nine-year compulsory education compulsory courses be easily taught to others?
This vertical method is naturally more convenient and faster than calculating chips.
At the very least, you don’t have to place them all the time, which saves a lot of effort and time.
"It's no wonder that he is a descendant of San Gong and has such a fast algorithm."
Yuan Shouguo sighed: "In this way, I don't seem to have to go to Ganlu to find an official."
"Sir, Doctor Xinyi is just helping us for one night."
"It doesn't matter! I have nothing to do when I'm free. It's okay to help Master Sikong with some serious things." Xin said again.
After traveling through time for nine years, he almost never left Xinyi, and Xin was almost going crazy.
While talking, there was a rustling sound.
I don't know when it started to rain.
"It's raining... Mr. Yuan Shouguo, I think you, Gan Lu, may not be able to go... Why don't you stay with us in Xinyi for a few more days?"
"With the help of a gentleman, I don't have to go to Ganlu to find a planner." Yuan Shouguo had no objection. This chapter has been completed!
