Rising: Ten Thousand Years Chapter 8: : Yanzi Rock


All the emotions of compassion and depression will be wiped out along with the long road, and replaced by the long boring and boring.

Amidst the yellow sand all over the sky, the carriage convoy moved on the sparsely populated sandy ground.

This geographical condition is not a desert, but somewhat similar to Gobi. The land is mainly composed of loess and yellow sand. After the wind blows, it is extremely prone to windy and sandy weather, but in fact, it is not a real desert.

It is said that 70% of the vast land today is deserted. But if you dig 50 meters down, it will all be loess. Digging further down, there will be an underground river. There is no shortage of water.

"Ah, it's so boring, how long will it take to get to Huangpu County?"

Liu Quan was shirtless, with a veil wrapped around his head, roaring.

Li Zhen is also a little embarrassed. He has traveled for more than a day, and it is really a long way. On top of this carriage ~IndoMTL.com~ you can't see it, and you can't learn it. Because of the bumps, everyone actually got a little motion sickness.

Mathematics Teacher Wang, who was accompanying the team to take the exam, laughed and said, "You two, you really haven't traveled long distances. When I was studying everywhere decades ago, I even walked across Kyushu from Hangcheng County by myself. I went to Xizhou once."

Another teacher Li took a sip of water and said lightly: "What's the hurry? Now we are in Tongxiang County, and there is about an hour's journey before we can enter Jiahe County. When we arrive in Jiahe County, it is only a short distance from Huangpu County. The county is not far away, and then we can live in Jiahe County for a day and have a good rest. You two children haven't traveled far, right? Let me tell you, Jiahe County is much more prosperous than Hangcheng County. "

Li Zhen asked curiously: "How prosperous is it?"

"Jiahe County, 70% of the land in the city is an oasis of loess. It's not far from our Hangcheng County, but Hangcheng County has a sandy soil environment. Jiahe County is loess Ground. There are a lot of merchants in the past. Moreover, Jiahe County is also the only way to Huangpu County, and merchants from all over the country will gather in Jiahe County, which is extremely prosperous. In the entire southeast state, only Jiahe County can match Huangpu County Compare."

Li Zhen asked again: "What is the population of Jiahe County?"

"It is said that Jiahe County has a population of over one million."

Liu Quan's eyes widened: "One million! It is said that the population of Huangpu County is only 1.5 million, which can be called a giant city in Southeast China. Can the population of Jiahe County exceed one million?"

Li Zhen asked again: "What is the annual GDP data of Jiahe County? What is the data on the division of old and young in the territory? What is the ratio of male to female? Has the per capita property been calculated?"

“…”

The whole team is full of black lines.

Teacher Wang wanted to laugh, but when he saw that Li Zhen didn't look like he was joking and enlivened the atmosphere, he saw that Li Zhen had already recorded a lot of dense things in the small notebook. It was all data about the human geography along the way, and my heart was filled with emotion immediately. This is a scholar!

Teacher Wang said solemnly: "I can't give you a general idea about these rigorous data. If you are interested in Jiahe County, we will be there in an hour. When the time comes, you can investigate it yourself. , wouldn't it make more sense?"

Li Zhen nodded and stopped talking.

Liu Quan sneered and said, "Aren't you crazy? You don't care about the gross domestic product (GDP), it has something to do with you..."

Before the words fell, Teacher Li interrupted seriously: "Student Liu, you are wrong. You are students, talents of the future empire, and you are going to serve the empire. Know more things, know more things, if you One day, the official title will be added to the body, and that will benefit one side of the world. The old saying goes, this is the reason for reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles.”

Liu Quan pursed his lips and said unconvinced: "It's useless to know these things. How much is the GDP? "

Teacher Wang laughed and said, "There is nothing difficult in this world, as long as there is a heart. Li is really a genius in mathematics. He can analyze some extremely useful things from numbers that ordinary people can't understand. This is a science. If you get the chance to go to college, you'll learn 'statistics', a variant of mathematics."

Liu Quan shrugged his shoulders and poked Li Zhen who was in a daze with his finger: "Hey, tell me what 'statistics' is. Don't hide it from me, you must know."

Li Zhen smiled and summed up the language: "In fact, one sentence can be used to summarize statistics, that is: through sorting, searching, describing, analyzing data, etc., the essence of an object can be inferred, and the prediction can be inferred. The future direction of the target, the feasibility of diversified development, and even the prediction of the percentage of life and death of the target, is an extremely comprehensive and complex discipline covering social sciences, natural sciences, and forecasting.”

'Ah...'

A convoy of people petrified collectively, staring at Li Zhen dumbfounded.

Liu Quan was dumbfounded, and shook his head: "What did you say just now? Slow down, I didn't hear you clearly. Right now, my mind is buzzing and it's messed up."

Li Zhen repeated it again with a smile, and wrote it down for him, so that he could understand it more intuitively and literally.

After Liu Quan read it, his heart was about to jump out of his mouth, and he said in horror: "How could it be so magical? Don't tell me, you know the specific data of a city and use statistics to calculate it. You can calculate the future business of this city. Where will it go, where will it develop with a high success rate, and even when will this city collapse?"

Li Zhen smiled without saying a word.

But Mr. Wang said sternly: "That's just superficial. The real statistics are more complicated than you imagine, student Liu."

Several teachers took a deep look at Li Zhen, feeling a little unbelievable.

If I remember correctly... No one in public high schools teaches the subject of statistics. It seems that Li Zhen knows better than his own teachers. How did he know?

Liu Quan also looked at Li Zhen with complicated eyes, and sighed softly. No one knew what the sigh meant.

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Li Zhen was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "It's actually not as difficult as you imagined."

"Isn't it difficult?"

Teacher Li hurried over.

Li Zhen shook his head: "It's not difficult, it's like doing a single-digit formula for finding X." When we know the known data of a thing and get the conditions, it's not difficult to find the unknown number X. It just means that the method of calculating it is more complicated, and more formulas need to be used.”

All the teachers smiled wryly and shook their heads, and stopped talking.

Liu Quan squinted at Li Zhen with contempt in his eyes.

Shit, I hate you for pretending to be so bland. To put it bluntly...it's not difficult.

Alas, this is probably the peerless powerhouse.

According to legend, there is such a peerless strong man who sighs before every exam, saying that he did not review yesterday. After the results came out, it turned out to be the first with a full score. I also told other students that I didn't expect this question to be so simple...

In Liu Quan's eyes, Li Zhen is now this kind of extremely weak and peerless powerhouse.

What he said was so complicated, it sounded like a big head, and it was not difficult for him to end with a sentence.

Liu Quan didn't want to talk to Li Zhen anymore, and took out a square box from his personal backpack as if offering a treasure, and held it in his hand like a treasure.

Li Zhen took a look and said in surprise: "You still have a radio!"

Liu Quan finally saw Li Zhen's surprised expression, and couldn't help but be full of pride: "Hmph, this is what my dad bought for me. Is it amazing? This is a great scholar in the empire. According to the description in ancient books, Restoring the invented 'semiconductor radio'. It was only invented a few years ago, and now it costs 100,000 yuan. It is not expensive."

Li Zhen gasped: "One hundred thousand coins!"

"Yeah, I'm not bragging to you. There are only ten transistor radios in the entire Hangcheng County. My family has two, and the rest of the rich businessmen have a few. There is also one that only the princess of Hangcheng County has, and it is used to receive The latest instructions from the country, as well as major news events. There are only ten in Hangzhou County, and I have one!"

Liu Quan was extremely showy, and began to pull out the 1.5-meter-long antenna, and then fiddled with it. After a while, the sound of some noisy people talking and broadcasting came from inside.

A group of teachers also gathered around, scrambling to watch, all amazed.

"It's amazing."

"What kind of principle is this?"

"How can a square box receive audio signals far away?"

"I heard that the high officials of Southeast State have a plan to lay some road to receive audio, so that the signal will cover the entire Southeast State. It seems that it is covered. You can hear the sound before you reach Jiahe County. .”

“…”

Liu Quan looked at everyone triumphantly, and flaunted, "You don't understand. This is because we are approaching Jiahe County, so we can hear the sound. There is a radio station in Jiahe County. We don't have one in Hangzhou County. , Generally, the signal cannot be received. The princess’s radio was issued by the Kyushu imperial court. It is the most advanced and dedicated. His radio seems to be able to receive the signal from Zhongzhou.”

Along the way, everyone surrounded Liu Quan miraculously, and Li Zhen also fiddled with him curiously, listening to the gradually clear voices of people inside.

Li Zhen naturally knows about semiconductor radios, and he also knows the principle. These are the basic knowledge of high school, and Zhang Zhi taught him this course a long time ago. But he has never seen it.

Liu Quan said impatiently: "Take it easy, don't break it for me. Okay, let's go here today, and listen to it tomorrow. It's enough to listen to it for 20 minutes a day. This battery is old. It’s expensive. Only Zhongzhou sells it.”

After speaking, Liu Quan put away the semiconductor with a proud face, and glanced at Li Zhen, the color in his eyes became more intense.

Hmph, finally he has been compared to him a little bit, and he finally got a little bit of attention from this guy.

"Ah!"

Liu Quan had just installed the radio when he heard a shrill scream coming from the front of the carriage.

"What's wrong!"

The people gathered in a carriage turned pale with fright~IndoMTL.com~ ran out to watch.

Li Zhen jumped off the carriage, stepped on the ground and looked forward. But seeing the hired groom standing at the front, his legs trembling, he was already frightened...

At the very front, in a valley, lay forty or fifty **** corpses in a horrific state.

"This... this..."

Everyone lost their minds, their hearts became heavy, and they were terrified.

Li Zhen maintained a trace of calm in fear, and looked carefully at the corpses, only to find that seven or eight of them were young men with weak crowns. A lot of luggage, clothes and other daily necessities were scattered along the way.

There are carriages, but only the carriages remain, and the horses are gone. Everyone's clothes pockets were all turned out.

Looking at the terrain of the valley, there are stone mountains on the left and right, and only a narrow passage in the middle, about two or three kilometers long. There are no roads in all directions.

"This is... what's wrong with this."

Liu Quan was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, how had he ever seen a corpse?

Li Zhen became short of breath, and quickly said: "Go quickly, keep quiet, everyone, don't make any noise. Here... there are horse thieves!"

"Ah! Horse thief!"

"How courageous, this is the main road leading to Jiahe County, and there are horse thieves here."

"I see, this is Yanziji!"

"Yanziji?"

"I always heard that in recent years, when rushing for the exam, there will always be some students who are rushing for the exam disappearing near Yanziji. Some people say that they are horse thieves. A merchant. I didn’t expect it to be true..."

Yanziji!

Li Zhen quickly jumped into the carriage and shouted in a deep voice, "Go! Go!"
