After delivering a precise stab to Hook's heart, Maverick, who was in a good mood, invited Xu Yun to eat a lentil bun on the street, which was extremely rare.
Looking at the sign of Yage Hotel not far away, Xu Yun couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion in his heart while chewing dry bread.
According to the normal historical trajectory, a fire that will go down in history will occur in London in 1666.
Because its impact was so far-reaching, historians even gave the fire the name 'Great Fire'.
Hooke showed great architectural talent after the fire and was directly involved in the reconstruction of London. Therefore, it was not until the end of 1668 that he had time to go to Trinity College to challenge Barrow.
Barrow was helpless when it came to the questions raised by Hooker. He was humiliated and ridiculed by Hooker in front of a group of students, and finally even alerted the president of Cambridge University.
Barrow suffered a serious illness as a result. After recovering from the illness, he resigned as Professor Lucas in 1669 and elected Maverick as the next Professor Lucas.
In the later years, Barrow gave up mathematics and began to study theology wholeheartedly, which is quite similar to the local martial arts novels about seeing through the mortal world and cutting away the threads of troubles.
Later, Barrow received a doctorate in theology in 1670, officially became the dean of Trinity College in 1672, and was promoted to the vice-chancellor of Cambridge University in 1665. Although this resume seems very beautiful, it recognizes Barrow's theological achievements.
rather than mathematics.
And from the end of 1673, Barrow had been bedridden, and died in 1677.
No one can say for sure whether Barrow's untimely death was directly related to Hooker's failure, but one established fact is very clear:
That is, a top Lucas professor resigned early and switched from mathematics to theology.
You must know that at this time, Barrow has already obtained the product and quotient of two functions and the differential theorem, which is a height that Mavericks cannot reach now.
In terms of research progress, he is actually the first person in the field of calculus at this time!
Therefore, in some small circles, Barrow's evaluation is somewhat similar to the young general Qu'a in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, who is the kind of 'general star' who fell early.
Now with the appearance of Xu Yun, Xiao Niu accidentally saved his teacher from a catastrophic disaster, but he also developed a grudge against Hu Ke, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.
...........
Twelve days passed by in a blink of an eye, and a new Sunday arrived.
Grantham.
Church of St. Titus.
Today, the entrance of the church is still crowded with people, and deep and magnificent hymns are faintly heard from the inside of the building. The formation is even bigger than when Xu Yun first came.
This is the second week of November. According to the custom of the British peninsula in the seventeenth century, on the second Sunday of every month, all England will hold a large-scale trade gathering based on the fourth administrative area.
The trade rally starts on Sunday afternoon and lasts until 2 to 3 pm on Monday afternoon.
Therefore, on this day, the church's worship bell will ring one hour earlier, and the worship process will also skip the communion link, giving everyone enough time to buy or sell things.
This kind of gathering seems to be spontaneously organized by the people, but in fact it is inseparable and impossible to do without the support of the diocese.
Therefore, in past gatherings, the church would also sell some holy books, pictures of saints, or drinks, etc.
But today, the stalls belonging to the Diocese of Grantham are different from those in the past:
There were no holy books, no pictures, just fist-sized clay jars neatly arranged on a table.
There were four or five huge pottery jars placed behind the table. Next to the pottery jars stood Xu Yun, Xiao Niu, William's family and several helpers in church uniforms.
According to the agreement reached by Yaerlin and William.
The diocese will sell ketchup to more than a fifth of the East Midlands, with Grantham only a small part of the territory.
At the same time, considering that this kind of non-religious business was not in line with the church's style, Arlin handed over the booth of the gathering to the William family.
The diocese has only deployed a few people to assist with statistics, and is also responsible for some material arrangements.
Mrs. William was currently wearing a cotton and linen dress, with a white scarf wrapped around her head, and her hands were wiping her apron anxiously:
"My dear, how long until the meeting ends?"
William Escue was much calmer than his wife. He turned to look at the clock tower in the town and said:
"It should be soon, maybe five to ten minutes..."
"Duang——"
Before William could finish speaking, a low bell rang from the direction of the church.
This is the church bell, heralding the end of worship.
Less than a moment.
squeak——
The two heavy doors of the church slowly opened, and a stream of people poured out along with a body odor.
Mrs. William's expression became more and more nervous, and she hurriedly ordered Lisa and others:
"Lisa, look at the position of the spoon again...Elura, check whether the lids of the jars are closed...Andrea, where are the potatoes? Bring the potatoes out quickly!"
The meeting place is located on a street next to the church. The parish stall is at the front of the street, which is the only entrance.
Coupled with the exclusive cross sign, anyone who is not a StarCraft player will definitely see this stall the first time they walk into the street.
...
Tiffany Boley, who had just left the church, held her son Dino's little hand, took the initiative to wrap his somewhat leaky scarf, lowered her head and asked:
"Dino, tell mom, did you listen carefully to today's Sunday school lesson?"
Dino, who is eight years old this year, jumped up and down on the bricks on the ground and said happily:
"Yes, today we are talking about the story of Job. Hey, Mom, what is that?"
Tiffany Boley was listening to Dino's words with a smile. When she heard the words, she subconsciously turned around and found that what Dino was referring to was the stall at the entrance of the market.
She smiled and touched her son's head and said:
"Oh, that's the church's stall. Come on, let's go over and take a look."
Tiffany Boley's husband is a tailor in the town of Grantham. Due to his exquisite craftsmanship, his income is not low. The family basically has no worries about food and clothing. It is considered a middle-class family.
In August this year, Tiffany Boley had just bought a portrait of the apostle Peter at a rally and hung it at home. Unexpectedly, a cat ran into the house not long ago and tore most of the portrait apart.
Therefore, since the beginning of the month, she has been planning to buy a new portrait at the market.
As a result, as soon as she led Dino to the edge of the stall, a voice called "Baby Boy" came to her ears:
"Hello, would you like some of the newly launched ketchup? You can try it for free!"
"ketchup?"
Looking at the strange young man with black hair and black eyes in front of her, Tiffany Boley couldn't help but swallow what she was about to say, and asked curiously:
"what is that?"
The black-haired young man expertly pushed a plate in front of her, and took a small piece of potato cut into thin strips from the side:
"This is a new type of sauce from the East, made from non-toxic tomatoes. The Diocese of Grantham guarantees it. Look, there is also a handwritten letter from Pastor Arlin.
The quantity is limited and while supplies last, you can try it first before making a decision.”
"Tomato?"
Hearing this term, Tiffany Boley couldn't help but have a trace of hesitation on her face.
In her opinion, tomatoes are poisonous food.
Then she took a look at the Grantham Diocese sign on the stall and several parishioners in church attire behind the stall. The trust brought by her faith eventually overshadowed the impression brought by the rumors.
The tailor's wife carefully picked up a shredded potato, lightly dipped it in some tomato sauce, put it in her mouth and took a bite.
After a moment, her eyes suddenly lit up:
"How to sell this thing?"
Opposite him, Xu Yun smiled at her and raised two fingers:
"10 ounces of ketchup, only 2p!"
