"This, this, isn't this the main building of Beijing Institute of Technology? Was it built by King Wuzhong?"
Zhuge Weidao never expected that King Zhuge Wuzhong's "thatched cottage" was actually similar to the iconic main building of Beijing Institute of Technology... and it was not what Zhuge Weidao had seen in Beijing when he was in college. It looks like it did when it was built in the 1950s, with a Chinese-style roof and a fountain in front of the building. You can tell that a lot of thought was put into it.
"What's the main building of Beijing Institute of Technology?" Zhuge Weixue turned to look at this silly brother, "That's the former residence of King Wu Zhong. He used to teach the first generation students of Beijing Institute of Technology here. But this building has never been It has not been assigned to Beijing Institute of Technology and has always been the property of our Zhuge family... Let's go, we will stay here tonight. Tomorrow morning, the military division will review your matter!"
"Trial me?" Zhuge Weidao sneered in his heart, "Just a few of them fake military advisors, how dare they interrogate me, a real military advisor?"
Seeing his brother standing there stupidly with no reaction, Zhuge Weixue could only sigh softly and said: "Brother one hundred and eight, when the time comes, you will cry and beg the second brother to spare you... The second brother and our father are Although we are different in generations from childhood to adulthood, we are as close as brothers. As long as he speaks for you, you will always have a happy life."
Zhuge Weidao knew that the "second brother" mentioned by his brother was the second brother in the clan, the current right minister, King Wu Zhuge Weijiu. Because Zhuge Weidao's grandfather Zhuge Xinghua died of malaria while he was governor of Borneo. Zhuge Youde was still a child at that time, and his biological mother died in childbirth due to her advanced age. Therefore, Zhuge Youde, who had no father or mother, was raised by Zhuge Youde's clan brother, Zhuge Weijiu's father. In fact, Zhuge Youde had several concubine brothers, but once Youde died, all his title and property would be lost. It belongs to my concubine. Although the virtuous concubine brothers have not shown any intention of harming others, they are all foxes of the Zhuge family... Do you still know that human nature cannot be tested every day?
"Brother, I'm not wrong, why are you crying and begging?"
Zhuge Weidao is still insisting...how could he be right? He slept with the candidate queen! This matter needs to be put aside now. He must be arrested and beaten to death in Jinyiwei Prison!
Zhuge Weixue saw that his brother looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, so he had to sigh and walked towards the building.
Just as Zhuge Weidao was about to follow him, He Tianran and Guo Xiaobao had already stopped him and handed him two large boxes of luggage.
"Brother Daozi, we can't go in... Only the children and slaves of the Zhuge family can enter here."
"Brother Daozi, you can take this luggage yourself."
Zhuge Weidao took the luggage and muttered: "Why are there still such rules?"
His eldest brother probably heard what he said, so he turned around and said: "The secret of our Zhuge family is here. Of course, people with foreign surnames cannot enter."
"Tianji?" Zhuge Weidao looked up at the building in front of him and whispered, "This building is Tianji!"
As he spoke, he picked up the box and walked into the building.
After walking in, Zhuge Weidao discovered that the decoration and layout in this building were so friendly... Isn't this just an old-fashioned teaching building? It seemed that King Zhuge Wuzhong was still traveling with me, but he was probably a master in science and engineering.
However, there were no students in this building, which looked a bit like an old-fashioned teaching building. There was only a small-looking maid cleaning the building. Zhuge Weidao took a look at one of the girls who looked pretty pleasant. He didn't say anything. In this way, Zhuge Weixue spoke: "They are all Japanese slaves who were bought when they were young. They were trained very well, but they are illiterate and cannot leave Longzhong Village for the rest of their lives... If you like it, you can Let them sleep with you, and if you have a child, they will send it to your home in the future, but the surname cannot be Zhuge."
It seems that the secret of heaven exists in the form of words! If you are illiterate, you won’t know the secrets of heaven in front of you.
Zhuge Weidao already understood, so he immediately looked away, carrying two large boxes of luggage (mainly books), and followed Zhuge Weixue to the second floor. After going upstairs, he walked for a while in the long corridor, finally turned a corner, and stopped outside the door of a room with the words "Wuxianghou Fang" hanging on it.
While Zhuge Weidao was still looking around, Zhuge Weixue had already taken out the key and opened the door. Zhuge Weidao followed his brother into the room and found that the space inside was very large. Bookshelves and cabinets were used to create two spaces, one was the bedroom and the other was the study room. They were all kept very clean. The bookshelves are also filled with all kinds of books.
Zhuge Wei said: "My father and grandfather often came here to stay and study... Some of their manuscripts are also collected here. If we want to quarrel with the Confucian scholars, we must have a look at these manuscripts. The proceeds." As he spoke, he sighed again, "Daozi, you also lived here for several months before and read through all their manuscripts and books."
Zhuge Weidao looked at the big bookshelves and nodded with a smile: "Brother, I will read it again after I pass the test of fighting with the Confucian scholars."
"It's not that easy," Zhuge Weixue shook his head, "You'd better think about how to apologize to the military advisors first!"
"I'm not guilty!" Zhuge Weidao said with a smile as he put the suitcase in place, "And I can really count!"
Zhuge Weixue was angered by his younger brother's words, "If you can really count, then you will be fine even if you are guilty..."
"Brother," Zhuge Weidao said with a smile, "you will know when the time comes whether I can do the math. Now, let me tell you which of the military advisors in the family are doing the math? I can give them a good idea alone. "
Zhuge Weixue glared at his younger brother: "You can't count. You can count everything with just a few fingers. Why are you asking me?"
Zhuge Weidao smiled and said: "Brother, don't I have limited computing power, so I have to use it sparingly?"
"Not bad..." Zhuge Weixue shook his head, "I really don't know where the words came from? Okay, let me talk to you! If you can really do math, how many futures will our room have? I won’t have to worry about it for ten years.”
Zhuge Weidao's eldest brother is still a good brother. He is now the eldest brother and father! Moreover, the old man's marquis was attacked by him, and he also took half of the inheritance. There was no reason not to protect his compatriots!
Moreover, since his own talent was not high, it would be very difficult to pass the military advisor examination, so he always counted on his brother to excel. If Zhuge Weidao becomes a military advisor, he will be at least the third commander of the navy in the future, and may even be able to become the prime minister. At that time, Zhuge Weixue's official career will be open, and he will still be able to become governor and minister. Moreover, after Zhuge Weidao became a military advisor, he could also guide Zhuge Weidao to make money. Letting a strategist who can do calculations and calculations guide you on investments can make you money much faster than being a corrupt official, and it does not violate any laws and regulations... Can you be classified as insider trading if you can do calculations?
...
"... There are a total of seventeen military advisors in our Zhuge family's military advisor corps. Four of them are senior officers and the remaining 13 are all senior advisors. Each military advisor is qualified to study under Zhuge Wu The Heavenly Book left by King Zhong - There are twenty volumes in the Heavenly Book left by King Wu Zhong, corresponding to mathematics, chemistry, physics, international politics, army, navy, finance, machinery, metallurgy, chemical industry, shipbuilding, electricity, etc. Mining, electronic communications, pharmaceuticals, light industry, Feng Shui and three other confidential categories. Daozi, what I am telling you now are the secrets of our Zhuge family. Historically, only the children of the clan who have passed the preliminary examination of military advisor are qualified. I know. You and I have passed the preliminary test before, so we know this. Now I will tell you again, but you must remember that this secret cannot be revealed even to your wife and children. Otherwise, King Wu Zhong in heaven I won’t let you go, and the Zhuge family on earth won’t let you go either!”
The one who is explaining the family secrets to Zhuge Weidao is his good eldest brother Zhuge Weixue. And what he said is the secret that the Zhuge family has kept for more than a hundred years - this secret may have been leaked, but it doesn't matter, because knowing the Heavenly Book and reading the Heavenly Book are two different things.
And King Zhuge Wuzhong can write twenty volumes of heavenly books by himself. This knowledge... is really huge!
"Brother, what are the three secret categories?" Zhuge Weidao became curious, "And what's going on with Feng Shui?"
Zhuge Weixue shook his head, "Ask me, who should I ask?"
"Then will these three volumes of secret heavenly books be shown to others?"
"Of course I won't give it to you!" Zhuge Wei said, "How can you call it a secret when it's shown to others? This secret book must meet certain conditions before it can be decrypted... As for what the conditions are, don't ask me, I don't know. of."
"Those seventeen volumes of heavenly books correspond to seventeen military advisors," Zhuge Weidao asked, "What heavenly books should I read when I become a military advisor?"
"It is also possible for two military advisors to read a volume of the Heavenly Book together!" Zhuge Wei said, "The upper limit for military advisors is twenty, and there are also twenty volumes of the Heavenly Book, but there is no provision for one military advisor to read one volume of the Heavenly Book. You can read whichever book you want. Choose for yourself.”
"Then..." Zhuge Weidao thought for a moment and then asked, "Are those three volumes of secret heavenly books about our own Ming Dynasty?"
"No," Zhuge Weixue's answer was very straightforward, "The ancestor said that he would not reveal the destiny of our Ming Dynasty... He only said that our descendants must treat the people well and remember If you hit the water, you can carry the boat, or you can capsize it!"
"Oh, no wonder..." Zhuge Weidao said in his heart: "No wonder a bunch of Zhuges are all cowards! The international politics, army and navy books left by the old man must have recorded various rebellions and dynasties The collapse. He didn’t explain Daming’s own affairs. Of course, he couldn’t explain it! So if he just left something like ‘water can carry a boat, it can also capsize it’, this must be scary! Those gangs Cowardly Zhuge must have thought that he or his descendants had screwed up and been wiped out by the common people. In order to preserve the ancestral glory and wealth, they had to do more welfare and less foreign wars, and at the same time work hard to develop productivity... ..."
Thinking of this, Zhuge Weidao asked again: "Probably, the living standard of our Ming people is the best in the world?"
"It should be one of the best, or how about the Chinese Empire?" Zhuge Weixue said matter-of-factly, "But the United States, Argentina, and Brazil seem to be good too. After all, they have fewer people and more resources!"
