Daming pirates

Thinking back carefully about what he did, compared with Yu Xiaotian, Sun Yuanhua himself felt embarrassed to mention that he was a serious scholar. He thought he was rich in knowledge, read a lot about classics, and was full of knowledge. However, when he became a governor, he also did many things.

What? I wanted to create an elite army for the Ming Dynasty, and then serve the imperial court and eliminate the slaves.

But in the end, everything came to nothing. He spent hundreds of thousands of taels to build an elite army, but it became a rebel army and harmed large areas of Ming Dynasty land and people.

But Yu Xiaotian was just a pirate, but he was able to manage a barren land in such a good way and create so many miracles. Sun Yuanhua was very discouraged by this. Comparing people with each other and comparing goods with each other are damned.

The goods should be thrown away, this is really true.

After a few months, Sun Yuanhua completely gave up the idea of ​​returning to the land. Although his family was still on the land, he had nothing to worry about. His three sons were all adults and they had their own children at home.

He has many friends who can take care of his family on his behalf, so he has nothing to worry about.

So after he adapted to the life here, he felt at ease. One day someone gave him a handwritten book on the principles of mechanics. This book should be compiled by Yu Xiaotian based on his memory.

A copy of the notes had been given to Zhang Tiejiang before. Now, after having someone copy it again, he arranged for someone to give it to Sun Yuanhua.

After Sun Yuanhua got the book, he just flipped through it briefly and was immediately attracted by the notebook. He plunged into the notebook and began to crazily absorb the knowledge recorded in it.

Sun Yuanhua was a scholar by birth. He not only made great achievements in the Four Books and Five Classics, but most importantly, he was a famous scientist in the late Ming Dynasty. He was involved in astronomy, geography, algebra, geometry and other Western sciences, and he was quite competent.

.

This set of notes on mechanical principles contains a lot of knowledge about mathematics, as well as a lot of knowledge about mechanics. Although Zhang Tiejiang is an iron maniac, he cannot understand many of them from a deep level.

You can know what it is but you can't know why it is.

But Sun Yuanhua is different. He has solid basic knowledge and a wide range of academic knowledge. For him, many things can basically be said to be understood in one point. After reading this book "Principles of Mechanics", Sun Yuanhua couldn't help but be amazed and exclaimed that this is the case.

It is a strange book. Although many parts of it are unclear, and he even feels that there are many missing points, he has to admit that after reading this book, it is equivalent to reopening a door to the mechanical discipline in front of him.

door.

Sun Yuanhua was pleasantly surprised by such a harvest. Even though he devoted himself wholeheartedly to this notebook, he sorted out and organized it based on what he knew, including some of the drawings, and he also re-done it.

For two months, he almost devoted himself to this notebook.

Through his organization, he reorganized this not-so-comprehensive notebook, added some missing parts or fallacies that he thought were missing, and compiled it into a new Principles of Mechanics.

Just when he finished this matter, Yu Xiaotian came.

When the two people sat opposite each other in an elegant study, holding tea bowls and looking at each other, Sun Yuanhua saw Yu Xiaotian himself for the first time.

He had heard a lot about Yu Xiaotian, and he had already sketched out an image of Yu Xiaotian in his mind, but when he saw Yu Xiaotian in person, he still had to sigh.

The impact on him was really too great. The Yu Xiaotian in front of him had an indescribable temperament that could not match the image he had sketched in his heart.

Although Yu Xiaotian has a tall figure, he has a touch of elegance on his face. Among this elegance, there is also a kind of rigidity, which seems very contradictory, but these temperaments are well integrated together and do not give people any impression.

It creates an unexpected feeling.

After the two people looked at each other, they greeted each other and then got back to business.

It wasn't until this moment that Sun Yuanhua asked the question he had always wanted to ask, asking Yu Xiaotian about his purpose of traveling thousands of miles from Denglai to get here.

Yu Xiaotian laughed loudly and said: "Master Sun is a great master in this world! He is full of knowledge and knowledge. Although Yu has never met Master Sun, he has admired him for a long time!

During the Denglai Rebellion, Yu predicted that the imperial court would not let Master Sun go. However, Yu believed that if a person like Master Sun were killed by the current emperor, he would be a real loser to me, the Ming Dynasty.

Huge loss.

That’s why Yu so boldly sent someone to invite Mr. Sun back, for no other reason than to preserve a scientific fire for China, and not let him be wiped out like this! That’s all!”

After hearing this, Sun Yuanhua was silent for a while, and then suddenly asked: "Then I dare to ask General Yu, how did you expect that Kong and Li would release me? How could you send someone in advance to stop me on my way back to Beijing?

, kidnapped me to Xishan Village? Sun is puzzled by this! I hope the general will clear up his doubts!"

Yu Xiaotian took a sip of tea, shook his head and said: "I can't answer this question, it can be regarded as a secret that cannot be leaked! There is an expert who once gave me some advice and predicted that you will be released by the rebels, so I

With the idea of ​​giving it a try, I sent someone to invite you back! As for other things, you don’t need to ask more. Yu is really unable to answer, so I hope you can forgive me!"

Sun Yuanhua was silent again, shook his head for a while and said with a bitter smile: "General Yu, please stop calling Sun Mr. "Sir"! Sun is now a wanted criminal by the court, so how can he have the dignity to be called "Sir"?

It seems that General Yu doesn’t want to talk anymore, so that’s fine, Sun will just leave it alone! Is it possible that there really is such a powerful person with the power of ghosts and gods in this world?”

Yu Xiaotian shrugged his shoulders and did not comment on Sun Yuanhua's words.

Fortunately, Sun Yuanhua also knew that it was impossible for Yu Xiaotian to tell him the truth about this kind of thing. If he continued to ask, it would be in vain, so he changed the topic and asked Yu Xiaotian: "Then General Yu will be next

Please come here, I wonder what I want you to do in the future?"

Yu Xiaotian stood up and said: "Okay, then I will boldly call you sir! Sir, don't worry, Yu will never follow the example of Kong and Li and force you to become a rebel king!"

In Yu Mou's eyes, Your Excellency is a scholar. Obviously, Your Excellency is not a very qualified official, nor is he a minister of world affairs. To say this is really offensive to you, but Mr. Yu has been calm for so long, so he should be able to accept it. Such an evaluation from someone!

However, in Yu's eyes, although he is not a capable minister, he is worthy of the title of a scholar. Yu has been fortunate enough to read several of his works and deeply feels that he has made great achievements in arithmetic and Western learning. And if all the knowledge you have learned is lost like this, it will really be a tragedy for our country.

Therefore, Yu Mou has nothing to ask for from his husband. As long as he is willing, he does not need to do anything. He only needs to continue his academic work with concentration and leave more learning to the world. Then Yu Mou will not waste so much effort. Mr. Jiang was rescued!"

Hearing Yu Xiaotian say that he did not intend to force him to do anything for him, but that he only needed him to concentrate on continuing to study his favorite Western learning and continue to write books and theories, Sun Yuanhua almost couldn't believe that this was true.

In the Ming Dynasty, he knew very well that there were very few people who really valued Western learning. His mentor Xu Guangqi was an alternative. However, Western learning was not taken seriously in the Ming Dynasty at all. Although some scholars or officials often talked about Western learning, But in fact, most of these people are just people who are looking for fame. They only know a little bit about real Western learning, so they talk about it endlessly, and even write books, just for the sake of a name, so that people can talk about them. He seems to be very capable.

But people like Yu Xiaotian who value the knowledge he carries are very rare in this world. At first, he didn't quite believe Yu Xiaotian's words, feeling that Yu Xiaotian had spent so much effort to get him here. , but only let him concentrate on studying Western learning, but did not use his identity to do other things.

But taking a closer look at Yu Xiaotian's expression, he felt that Yu Xiaotian was not lying, so he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Although he is a little afraid of death, he still sticks to the bottom line on some things. He will never agree to Yu Xiaotian. In the future, when Yu Xiaotian rebels, he will act as a pawn for Yu Xiaotian and for Yu Xiaotian. Waving flags and shouting to attack the Ming Dynasty, if this is the case, he would rather offend Xiaotian and bear the anger caused by Xiaotian, even if it means killing him, he would not hesitate.

But now Yu Xiaotian has not made such a request to him, which makes him feel relieved.

Thinking about it carefully, in his current situation, it is no longer possible for him to return to the land. Things like official career have long become a thing of the past. Now he can only listen to Xiaotian's arrangements. , staying in this fresh water city and using the rest of his life to do more academic things was a good way out, so after thinking about it for a while, he finally nodded and agreed.

Then they talked about Yu Xiaotian's future plans. Sun Yuanhua was not polite. He directly pointed out Yu Xiaotian's disobedient heart and asked what Yu Xiaotian was thinking about. Did he want to use him one day? Use the rear base of Taiyuan Island to compete with the Ming Dynasty for the world.

Yu Xiaotian did not hold back and asked Sun Yuanhua about his understanding of the word "tianxia". Sun Yuanhua said without hesitation that the whole world is not the king's soil, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers.
