Chapter 87 War of Words (3)

The star warlocks were all very busy. The meeting was over and they left quickly. Especially the gentlemen on An Feng's side saw that Cheng Jinzhou was not feeling well and had no intention of staying.

at last. The only ones left in the field to watch Cheng Jinzhou pose were Warlock Deng Zhuxing and Warlock Xiang Xinxing. Xu Gu was also carried away and ran down below.

In the empty room, Deng Zhu clapped his hands and said repeatedly: "Wonderful, so wonderful."

This guy was wearing a well-starched blue robe, and his shiny hair was tightly attached to his temples, and then combed straight down his forehead. The two exposed hands are slender and white, and the nails are only one or two centimeters longer. His slightly thin face was covered with foundation, as if he was afraid that others would not know about his narcissism.

The aristocratic children of the entire Great Xia Dynasty, as long as they looked human-like, they would probably regard themselves as the best young masters in troubled times. Just like every wild dog feels that he can defeat the Tibetan Mastiff, because they feel that they have a food intake comparable to that of the Tibetan Mastiff - but there is not enough dog food.

Regarding the sorcerer Deng Zhuxing who spoke last, Cheng Jinzhou finally remembered that the so-called prince Lu Anping who was arrogant in Hongwen Hall the day before yesterday was his apprentice. If you consider that his master is Jiang Huangxing Warlock. The feeling he gave Cheng Jinzhou was like a hot dog with bad bread, and he didn't even need to taste it.

Seeing the badge of the opponent's second-level star warlock, Cheng Jinzhou lowered his attitude and said: "Deng Zhuo Star Warlock is so praiseworthy..."

"You are only 13 years old this year, and you are about to leave to become a second-level star warlock. From now on, everyone will be equal." There is no domineering look on Deng Zhu. He is only 30 years old at most. When I get results, I don’t feel jealous at all when talking about others. If his white face wasn't too conspicuous due to makeup, he could still be considered a normal person.

Of course Cheng Jinzhou would not think that he could really be equal to others. Division-level cadres were also officials, and the county magistrate was also a division-level cadre, but the difference was huge. So I had to be humble again, and all the kind words I had saved were wiped out in an instant.

Finally, Deng Zhu was not prepared to carry out his politeness to the end, so he broke the cycle and said, "I wonder if Mr. Cheng has time to go to Miyagi City to talk about it?"

The royal star warlock naturally had his official residence in the palace city. Jiang Huang couldn't invite him directly, so he took a slight detour. Because of his different status, there are more people paying attention to him. If he makes any slight movement, it will be easily spread. Even if he is covered with a layer of transparent skin, it will look different to others.

Cheng Jinzhou didn't need to think about it, and pretended to be serious: "I don't dare. However, although I have the meeting minutes as a guarantee today, I still want to complete the paper as soon as possible to avoid any changes in the middle. Time is limited, so I'll forgive you."

His performance was so utilitarian that Deng Zhu didn't know what to say. Facing a 13-year-old boy, he couldn't come up with many methods, which made him feel aggrieved: "There are all kinds of experimental equipment in the palace, Mr. Cheng Just use it though.”

"I'm used to making things myself."

"Then I'll find someone to move here."

"Some devices are just not mobile-friendly."

Cheng Jinzhou's excuse was obvious, so Deng Zhu had to say: "Besides geometric optics, is there anything else Mr. Cheng wants to study?"

"What do you mean?"

Deng Zhu no longer avoided it, just glanced at Xiang Xin and said, "Calculus."

Cheng Jinzhou almost took a breath, and his expression changed slightly: "It's just an idea. It's just a derivative of the extreme aspect. I'm afraid it doesn't have much value."

After confirming the rumor, Deng Zhu immediately became excited and clapped his hands again: "Even the idea is amazing. Is Mr. Cheng interested in studying this issue with Deng and others?"

At this moment, his burning eyes looked extremely sincere.

Everyone has something to pursue.

Cheng Jinzhou's eyes flickered and he said against his will: "I think geometric optics is probably more important, and a lot of energy has been invested in it."

Only by using purely astrological considerations can we try to avoid taking political sides. For a moment, Cheng Jinzhou could only think of this. As for belittling calculus, Newton and Leibniz had little chance of traveling through time anyway, so they had to apologize.

After answering repeatedly, Deng Zhu was clearly aware of Bu Cheng Jinzhou's rejection, and he was making a secret judgment in his heart. It was just that Cheng Jinzhou had refuted Warlock An Fengxing just now and was unwilling to get close to Warlock Jiang Huangxing at this moment, which made him a little confused. Although some astromancers are unwilling to participate in the struggle for power, when it comes to issues of resource allocation, it is rare for anyone to stay out of it. Unless you rely solely on yourself, it would be too difficult.

When both parties were silent, Xiang Xin finally found an opportunity to interject: "If there is nothing else, we will leave first."

"Mr. Cheng, if you are interested in continuing research in the future, please contact me again." Deng Zhu ignored Xiang Xin and said seriously.

Every astral warlock will have his own research direction. Even if he likes traveling and adventuring, fighting for supremacy on the battlefield, or pursuing sensuality, he ultimately wants to study something. Even an astral warlock like Lu Xu will also Dive into the application aspects. At a level equivalent to the 17th or 18th century, this research progress is actually very slow and changes rapidly. Just like modern Europe, because the starting point is very low and the depth of research is limited, many people can constantly change the direction of research, thereby creating many successful counterexamples. This is the case for Fermat, Newton, Galileo, etc. Physicists like Faraday who have never received formal education dominate the scientific world. If we go back 300 years, there will be no chance of this happening again.

Empty promises were made, and Deng Zhu left sadly. Xiang Xin said with a smile on his face: "Warlock Jiang Huangxing always likes to study algebra. He has not produced any new results in several years. There is no future with him. Geometry is the most used among the warlocks. You made the right choice."

Cheng Jinzhou smiled bitterly. He had already guessed that someone would study calculus-related issues, and he was already being cautious. Who knew that not only would he be caught out, but the debate between geometry and algebra would be so fierce, almost like political enemies in the court. Thinking about the famous discussions in the academic world at that time, fortunately some gentlemen did not have the power of the Star Warlock - —But in this world, there is no such thing as luck.

"Let's go find Shen Cong first." Cheng Jinzhou didn't want to discuss related issues anymore, but he was thinking about how to meet the Minister of Dali Temple. Although the Cheng family has been unfriendly in the past period, in fact, if you think about it carefully, the families who caused trouble are all in competition with the third room, or have entangled interests, while the others just kept silent. Of course, regardless of the Cheng family's attitude, Cheng's father must keep it.

The central government of the Daxia Dynasty had never interfered much in local affairs, and its response was often slow. After the snow disaster in Shaonan, messages of condolence, condemnation and disaster relief were sent out very early, but the so-called investigators did not appear. Cheng Jinzhou arrived in an airship again, so there was still plenty of time, but it was already nearly February, so it probably wouldn't be delayed any longer.

Shen Cong was not willing to answer hastily. Knowing that Cheng Jinzhou's contribution points could be increased, he did not want to talk nonsense, so he only comforted him to go home and ask his father for questions.

This question lasted two days.

Dali Temple is equivalent to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Procuratorate in modern society. In the system of the Daxia Dynasty, it did not have independent judicial power. In theory, it still required joint trials by the Ministry of Punishment. Because of this, the Dali Temple is notoriously inefficient in deciding cases. Only cases involving officials of mid-level and above are often handed over to the Dali Temple.

During the New Year, the gentlemen of Dali Temple naturally closed their doors and took a good rest. When the New Year began, another pile of things fell on their hands. Shen Cong took advantage of his father's sign to find it by himself. After two trips, the official responsible for the Shaonancheng case could not be found.

Only then did Shen Cong go to his father for help.

Shen's father, Shen Zhecong, was a standard cabinet member of the Zhao Dynasty. The title of a second-level civil servant speaks volumes in itself. He welcomes his son to have a star warlock friend. After all, Shen Cong is just a bastard. The possibility of inheriting his political resources in the future is very low. Some friends of his own are more useful.

However, his scope of authority mainly focuses on the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs. He is not beyond the reach of the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, etc., but he cannot directly help. Although Shen Cong had known this for a long time, he was still very disappointed.

This will take several more days.

For the Great Xia court, Cheng Jinzhou had no access to it at all, and he didn't want to go to his second uncle, so he could only wait peacefully. After so many days, Shi Yan Shi Mo, together with Meng Dameng and others, finally arrived in the capital, accompanied by more than a dozen large cars, full of various clothes and daily necessities.

After traveling thousands of miles, Shi Yan and Shi Mo both learned how to ride a horse. The long journey made both of them tanned. When they saw Cheng Jinzhou, they both had relieved smiles on their faces.

"Go take a shower and change clothes first. Are you tired?" Cheng Jinzhou was a little excited after not seeing each other for many days. Not only did he pat the two of them on the shoulders affectionately, but he also used words casually.

Meng Dameng Er was still standing at the door as usual, but his rough skin could not tell the hard work of the long journey.

Cheng Jinzhou came forward to say hello as usual, and asked the servants from other courtyards to boil water and serve him. As both servants, the latter was naturally a little reluctant and his movements were unavoidable slow. Shi Yan received the order before going out, and immediately stopped him: "No business, the third grandma asked us to bring some people, saying that the young master would pick them up and use them. Now they are waiting outside, let them boil water and cook. "

"How many people are there?" When Cheng Jinzhou went out, the family still didn't have enough people.

"30 servants and 10 maids. There are also 20 servants on the boat. Yueying and Zhufeng are also brought over by boat. There is some ice in the northern section. It is estimated that it will take a few days." Shi Yan looked at it. Looking at the servants of other houses standing nearby, he turned around and said, "My young lady asked me to tell you that everything is fine, don't read it. There is another letter."

Cheng Jinzhou nodded lightly and sent 60 people over in one go. It was inevitable to choose people from the bankers below, which was a big expense. The family might decide what else would be pawned. For a noble family, this feeling of being stretched thin It must be uncomfortable.
