I am Da Song

Chapter 310 Rewarding Inventions
Su Dai is not a stingy person, Luwena asked, and she talked endlessly.

"I have saved these [-] coins, of which about a thousand coins are lucky money given by my father on festivals."

"The rest mainly comes from two parts. One is the money given by Taixue."

"Giving money?" Luwena widened his eyes and asked, "What kind of money is this?"

"It is the money given by Taixue to reward inventions and creations."

"Sister of the Su family, do you still create strange objects? How many times have you been rewarded by Taixue?"

Su Dai said humbly: "It's just that I got something occasionally by studying things and improving the way of getting water."

Get water?
It really doesn't look very high-end.

Luwena asked curiously: "Then how much did the Taixue rate you?"

"Third class. Four thousand coins were rewarded."

"Third class!" Luvina was surprised, and asked: "How many classes are there in total? Is the third class the third class from the front to the back, or the third class from the back to the front?"

"A total of nine ranks, the quality is like the rank nine."

"That is to say, the ninth class is the lowest, the first class is the highest, and you even got the third class!?"

Luvina's exclamation attracted the attention of others in the room.

Taixue implemented a system to reward technological innovation, which happened last year.

It's just that Su Dai was rated as the third class in the first batch.

Zhao Huan was also somewhat curious, and asked, "What kind of water-drawing method can be rated as third-class?"

The little sister next to Su Dai, You Rongyan, happily introduced: "It is a completely labor-free means of getting water. Turn on the water valve, and the water can flow out of the pipe. Widows and widows, the old and the weak, women and children can save a lot of effort. And don't worry about the difficulty of getting water from the well."

"Tai Xue commented that this item can save countless patrol houses and water wells in Tokyo. Therefore, it is awarded the third class."

Zhao Huan's eyes lit up, this is the tap water system of the ancient Roman city reappeared in Song Dynasty!
"Such an invention that benefits the country and the people is only rated as third-class, but it is a bit low."

Su Dai took the little sister's hand and explained to everyone: "My sister is exaggerating. What I designed is just a simple water collection cycle, which can supply water to several courtyards. I used to entertain myself at my home. It’s just a random folk art, so it’s not perfect.”

"Tai Xue said to supply water to the whole of Tokyo, provide fire protection, etc., but also inspect the terrain, communicate water canals, create drop gaps, build reservoirs for purification, and lay water tank pipes and many other matters."

"After all this is done, we can create a situation that benefits the people of Tokyo. At present, Taixue and Kaifeng Prefecture are only in the preparation stage, so you have never seen this method of water intake."

No wonder the palace has never seen this new type of equipment.Taixue must at least ensure that the system is operating normally before it dares to replace the water supply system for the palace.Otherwise, if the water is cut off at both ends for three days, what a bad impression will be left on the emperor.

Luvina said with emotion: "Why do I feel like a waste when I sit with you?"

"Some of you spend hundreds of thousands of coins just to pursue your ideals."

"Someone is involved in a gigantic project that benefits millions of people throughout Tokyo."

"Only I am still worthless, and I can't even buy my own bride price."

Fan Sizhong comforted: "Don't add anxiety to yourself. You were born in the Zoroastrian Temple since you were a child, and your living environment is completely different from theirs. So this comparison is meaningless. To live your life well, to be fulfilled and meaningful, is to be born in its own right. Happy, a worthy death."

"Okay, but what can I do?" Luwena was comforted by her sweetheart, and immediately became happy.She never had so many vigorous pursuits in her life. She never thought of being heroic, serving the country as a soldier, or taking charge of the country.She just wanted to marry Fan Sizhong, and stay together every day, loving each other.

Su Dai introduced enthusiastically: "Actually, you can reproduce the miraculous skills and skills you have seen in various countries. If you don't feel suitable, there is another way. That is to translate Dashi's books into my own. Korean text."

"You were born in Dashi, and you have been in my dynasty for many years. This is not difficult for you."

"Taixue promotes a ten-year translation movement. Translating a Dashi book to Taixue can earn ten guan. If it is a meaningful classic, the value is as high as [-] guan. You only need to translate ten books to save enough for a dowry."

Luvina said excitedly: "This proposal is good!"

"I have also translated the teachings of Zoroastrianism before. Although the literary talent is not as good as those students, as long as I don't translate literary works, the impact will not be great."

"I just don't know what kind of books are considered to be extremely meaningful?"

Zhao Huan leaned on the back of the chair and said concisely: "Do the math."

""Elementary Geometry" is very popular in the West. If you start in time, the progress is ahead of others. This book can earn you at least [-] coins."

"Afterwards, I have been focusing on the translation of classic works in the field of calculation, and I can save a generous dowry in two or three years."

"Why are you so sure it's counting?" Luwena was surprised.

Fan Sizhong pulled her to sit down, firmly persuaded: "Listen to Brother Zhao."

Lu Weina whispered in dissatisfaction: "Why do you trust him so much? There must be a reason? If I don't recognize it too much, then my efforts are not in vain?"

Fan Sizhong lingered with her, and explained in a low voice: "First of all, with Brother Zhao's non-human nature, he will not harm you."

"Secondly, do you still remember Taixue Siye Chen Dong's attitude towards Brother Zhao?"

"I didn't remember it at first. But seeing the attitude of the manager in front of me, I seem to remember everything." Luwena pointed forward.

At the point of her finger, Li Fengnian, the steward of Zhuqi Bank, had already returned to the room, standing cautiously in front of Zhao Huan, bowing his head and bowing his knees.

"This is too abnormal! When he went back to his office, he had to knock on the door first and wait at the door! I just kept watching until Zhao Gongming glanced at him before he dared to bite the bullet and come in."

Fan Sizhong looked at Zhao Huan thoughtfully, while Su Dai's eyes were sharp and she was determined.

Zhao Huan also heard Lu Weina's exclamation, but he didn't care at all. He came to inspect the scenery of Tokyo in the white dragon fish suit, not to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger.So he calmly handed over the [-] guan money offered by Li Fengnian to Su Dai.

The [-] guan imperial banknotes are similar in appearance to the treasure banknotes of the Ming Dynasty and the silver notes of the Qing Dynasty. Because the largest denomination is only [-] guan, the [-] guan banknotes are thick.

Even if Su Dai was born in an official family, she has never seen so much money, let alone hold this thick wad of money in her arms.

Several other girls were also shocked by this unprecedented picture and opened their mouths wide.

In the Song Dynasty, one hundred thousand guan coins used to be like this.You have to hug your hands to barely hold it!
