Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy
Chapter 177 Prepare for a Rainy Day 1
Hu Yue is depressed!
His master asked him to go to Beijing, saying that he wanted to learn mathematics from the young nun.
But the Song Jinxiu he saw today was just a young girl who spoke in an arrogant and domineering manner.
Kan Tian knows when it will rain and when it will blow. He can even tell when it will rain and when the wind will blow. Isn't this arrogance?
In Cangwu, no, in the entire continent, no one in the art of Kantian can say with such confidence when it will rain and when it will blow.
Who does she think she is? Where is the god in heaven?
It would be embarrassing for him to ask such a kid for math lessons.
I don’t know what the master is thinking. He is the head of a sect. Doesn’t he have any face?
Especially since his own apprentice won this competition, he really couldn't bow down and seek advice from someone who was not as good as his apprentice.
But if I don’t go, I can’t disobey the master’s orders!
Hu Yue hid in the inn and meditated. He thought of waiting for three days. After this young nun who suddenly appeared had been humbled by her own disciple, he would come forward. By then, even if the master asked him to become his disciple, this young nun would not have the face to accept him as a disciple, right?
Song Jinxiu: Ignorance,
This is the magic of mathematics. Do you understand wind speed?
However, the next day, the entire capital was in an uproar.
"Oh, it's amazing, it's really amazing. Tonight it rained at midnight, and then the north wind started blowing at midnight, and then the rain stopped.
And it was really frosty when I woke up in the morning.”
A man in a thin cotton-padded jacket, with his hands folded, spoke excitedly.
"Are you seeing right? The time is really right?"
"It can't be wrong. Lao Zhang and I were drinking at Zuichunlou and talked about the fight between Dr. Song and Miss Cui that day. On a whim, we stayed up until midnight before going home."
"Yeah, yeah, my neighbor is the night watchman, and he said the same thing. Dr. Song's predictions are very accurate. It's amazing."
"Oh my god, is Dr. Song so amazing? She's so young, how did she do it?"
"No matter how she did it, she's better than Miss Cui!"
"Of course, Miss Cui lost in mathematics, but I didn't expect that her Kantian technique was not as good as Dr. Song's."
"What do you know? It is said that in order to calculate accurately with the Kantian technique, one must master it. Miss Cui's calculations are not as good as Dr. Song's, so Kantian is naturally not as good either. I guessed it before the competition."
For a time, public opinion in the capital was one-sided, and Cui Zixuan was so angry that she broke two pens.
Cui Qiu glanced at her and said unhappily, "How many times have I told you to be calm? You've made no progress in all these years."
"But I guessed the time correctly, what's the big deal? How can you be so impatient and take on such a great responsibility?"
Cui Zixuan quickly said, "Grandpa, I'm not angry about what others are saying. I heard that bitch is now arrogantly directing people to compact houses and tie up cattle and sheep, saying that this is to prevent the hurricane and rainstorm that will come the day after tomorrow!"
Cui Qiu sneered, "Isn't that perfect? The more she flaunts herself, the more she'll get slapped in the face. This is a good thing."
Cui Zixuan then smiled and said, "Yes, granddaughter understands."
Cui Qiu comforted his granddaughter and went to the observation deck again.
Since the Cui family took charge of the Imperial Observatory, they have relied on the Kantian meteorological technique to predict rain and clouds, because they have accumulated a large amount of Kantian meteorological techniques.
For example: "Hanging feathers and charcoal can tell the dryness and wetness of the air", "The changes in wind and rain can be known through music", "When it rains, the strings of the zither will slow down", etc.
So, simply by looking at the waxing and waning of the moon, they rarely make mistakes.
The only thing that made him so cautious was that during major festivals, such as sacrifices and the Longevity Festival, he would continuously observe the clouds, crosswinds, and the star Kan.
The girl from the Song family allowed him to go to the dome three times in just one day to observe the wind and clouds.
Above the dome, wind measuring instruments such as the Copper Phoenix, Xiangfengwu, Xian, Xian, and Yuzhan are divided into eight trigrams and stand around the dome to measure the wind from all directions at all times.
The Bronze Phoenix and the Xiangfengwu are both copper phoenix-shaped anemometers.
The head of the Phoenix can turn with the wind direction, and the direction of the wind can be determined by observing the direction pointed by the Phoenix's head.
The arc of vibration of the bronze phoenix's wings can be used to measure the strength of the wind.
At this time, the phoenix is flying, flapping its wings to create wind. All wind measuring instruments show that there is a light north wind and the rain clouds are obviously sparse, indicating that tomorrow will definitely be sunny.
At this time, the wind stations located in the southeast, northwest, and northeast also sent data, which was exactly the same as that measured by the dome.
After three days of observation, there was no sign of any major storm.
Cui Qiu couldn't help but sneer. With everything peaceful, where did this tree-breaking wind and rain come from? Could it be falling from the sky?
It just fell from the sky.
At this time, Song Jinxiu also took out an astronomical telescope and looked at the wind group above the clouds.
The wind is still there, slowly but steadily gathering strength. A strong gale will surely arrive tomorrow.
Zhu Beichen from the Imperial City Bureau has been following Song Jinxiu. In the past few days, he can see that Song Jinxiu is indeed helping the people.
The roof was leaking and she was so poor that she didn't hesitate to pay out of her own pocket to have it reinforced.
Song Jinxiu looked at the map in her hand, comparing it to the possible routes that the wind would have taken when it started, and frowned.
The storm was too large, and the Imperial City Bureau and his men alone were not enough to handle it.
"Zhu Beichen,"
"My subordinate is here."
"We are so short-handed. Do you think there are any idle troops who could come and help us for a day?"
Zhu Beichen put his hands behind his back and pondered for a moment before saying:
"The Imperial Guards can be used, but they cannot leave the Imperial City. The City Guards are stationed in the Western Hills Camp and cannot enter the capital without a summons. However, mobilizing the military is a matter of grave importance, and His Majesty will not approve it.
But the people from the Street Division can be used.”
The so-called Street Bureau is the department responsible for urban road construction, greening, cleaning, and clearing illegal road occupations.
That is the modern Environmental Sanitation Department of the Urban Management Bureau.
"Then get them moving."
Pingyang Hou Chenpi has been feeling a little irritated these past two days.
The second son, Chen Shi, returned with a blank letter from home.
Does this mean he has no rights at all? What does a blank letter from home mean? Does it mean that all his years of hard work have been wasted?
It wouldn't be scary if it just went to waste, but the scary thing is whether this guy has any evidence against him?
He really couldn't sit still, so he sent three groups of people to inquire about the news under the pretext of delivering clothes to his second son, but he didn't see anyone.
What kind of military camp is this? It is a strategically located area. During special periods, the camp is closed for rectification and all family members are not allowed to see it.
He wrote the letter himself and received the reply: This is a military letter, please send it through the Ministry of War for express delivery.
Oh my god, Zhou Kunran's impeachment didn't teach Su Mo a lesson, but it gave him a reasonable excuse to block the news.
Therefore, he has been anxious and angry these days. He can't breathe if he doesn't scold Su Mo a few times a day.
At this time, someone from the Imperial City Department came and asked him to cooperate with Song Jinxiu in building cattle sheds and reinforcing roofs for the common people.
Bah! You're just bored.
He said coldly, "Fallen leaves have been gathering in the city lately, and the waterways need to be cleared urgently. I don't have time."
The person from the Imperial City Department said, "Okay, then please, Lord Marquis, make sure the waterways are cleared. If there's any water accumulation in the capital, our Lord will impeach you."
Pingyang Hou Chenpi waved his hand and said, "I understand."
Humph! Cui Qiu of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory said there would be no wind or rain, and it would be sunny this winter.
Why dredge the waterways if there's no rain? It's not too late to dredge them in the spring.
Humph! Only you, the Imperial City Division, are fooling around with a clueless young girl. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
