My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

Tianjifang.

People still come and go.

That's right. Although the challenge from the Xuanlin Armor is gone, and the Jianghu figures who surrounded us yesterday are gone, Tianji Workshop is still Tianji Workshop.

These things—mechanical structures, weapons, and artifacts—are renowned and well-known throughout the capital and even the martial arts world.

Therefore, there are still quite a few people coming to order custom items every day.

There were merchants,江湖人士 (jianghu figures), and stewards of wealthy families, all waiting.

At this moment, outside Tianji Workshop, as a carriage slowly came to a stop, many people looked over.

The carriage curtain was lifted, and a woman dressed in a tight-fitting outfit was the first to step down from the carriage.

The woman was tall and slender, with a sword at her waist, and a cold look in her eyes.

Just standing there, he exudes an aura that keeps strangers at bay.

For a moment, many people's attention was drawn to it.

"Wow, what a hot girl!"

Among the crowd, a man couldn't help but whisper something, his eyes gleaming as he looked in the woman's direction.

Not only does she have a hot figure, but she is also extremely beautiful.

Such a woman is truly enviable.

But before he could finish speaking, his companion quickly tugged at him, saying, "Shut up!"

what?

The man was stunned and before he could react, another person stepped out of the carriage.

The appearance of this person immediately quieted down the previously chaotic sounds around them.

"Was it him yesterday who shattered the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion's Xuanlin Armor with a single finger?!"

"That's right, I saw it with my own eyes. Two loud explosions, and the Xuanlin Armor shattered!"

"Tsk tsk, I heard he's a master who has entered the ninth realm. The Marquis of Zhenbei has truly raised a fine son!"

Low murmurs continued to rise.

Jiang Xiaobai didn't pay any attention, glanced at Tianji Workshop, and led the way inside.

Zhang Xinnian and Tang Ningshuang followed closely behind.

After entering the Heavenly Mystery Hall, you can see several people surrounding the Heavenly Evolution Disc and try to make calculations.

However, judging from the way those people were scratching their heads, it was clear that things weren't going smoothly.

Just as Jiang Xiaobai entered, a figure quickly walked out; it was Chang Ying.

Upon seeing Jiang Xiaobai, Chang Ying immediately smiled and greeted him warmly, "Young Master Jiang!"

At this moment, Chang Ying's gaze towards Jiang Xiaobai was no longer as casual as it had been yesterday.

Even more so, there was a hint of undisguised reverence in his eyes.

Yes, after Jiang Xiaobai left yesterday, she immediately informed the young master about the Heavenly Evolution Disc.

Afterwards, she made a special trip to the Imperial Academy to visit Master Song.

Originally, Master Song still politely declined, refusing to reveal who the originator was.

But when she mentioned the name Jiang Xiaobai, Master Song's attitude changed on the spot.

That was incredibly satisfying.

He not only admitted that the new method of calculation was indeed passed down from Jiang Xiaobai.

He even gave a simple demonstration of several algorithms in front of her.

At that moment, Chang Ying truly understood what it meant to be shocked!

I never knew that counting could be so clear.

She was almost certain that if Tianji Workshop could obtain this set of calculation methods, the entire workshop's mechanical arts would undergo a tremendous change.

The source of this change lies with Jiang Xiaobai.

So now that she's facing Jiang Xiaobai again, Chang Ying doesn't dare to be the slightest bit negligent.

"Master Chang!"

Seeing Chang Ying's polite attitude, Jiang Xiaobai smiled and cupped his hands in return: "Where is your young master?"

"Oh, my young master has already prepared a banquet on the tenth floor, just waiting for Young Master Jiang."

As Chang Ying spoke, she turned to the side and said, "Young Master Jiang, please come with me."

Jiang Xiaobai nodded, and led Zhang Xinnian and Tang Ningshuang, following behind Chang Ying, all the way towards Liufang.

Zhang Xinnian looked around and couldn't help but marvel.

He had been to this place once before, but it still felt new to him.

After all, the things in Tianji Workshop are indeed different from those outside.

Soon, the group arrived at the room.

Chang Ying pulled down the gate.

Click click click!

The familiar sound of machinery rang out.

The entire flow chamber trembled slightly and slowly rose upwards.

At that moment, Chang Ying finally couldn't help but look at Jiang Xiaobai.

"Young Master Jiang."

"Um?"

Jiang Xiaobai turned his head to the side.

Chang Ying hesitated for a moment, then spoke up: "Your method of calculation..."

She stopped there.

But the meaning is already quite clear.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled after hearing this: "Oh, if you want to learn, I can tell you."

"real?"

Chang Ying's expression immediately lit up.

The reaction was even more excited than when they heard yesterday that Jiang Xiaobai could break the Xuanlin Armor.

"Of course it's true."

Jiang Xiaobai nodded: "This thing isn't anything secret, there's nothing to hide."

Chang Ying's heart started pounding wildly.

Before she could even express her gratitude, Jiang Xiaobai's voice rang out again: "Besides, those methods of calculation are just simple calculations."

"what?"

Chang Ying was stunned.

Simple arithmetic?

She was already amazed by the algorithms she had seen at Master Song's place yesterday.

But when it came to Jiang Xiaobai, it was just simple?

"I have even more advanced techniques for this kind of thing."

Jiang Xiaobai smiled at Chang Ying's reaction and continued, "Even more profound ones, of course... there are even more profound ones."

"..."

Chang Ying was stunned. Her first reaction was suspicion that Jiang Xiaobai was joking.

But looking at Jiang Xiaobai's casual demeanor, it doesn't seem like it.

Jiang Xiaobai, in particular, was able to calculate more than a hundred steps of the Heavenly Evolution Plate yesterday.

This is enough to prove that what Jiang Xiaobai said may not be a lie.

Chang Ying felt her heart beating faster and faster.

If that's really the case.

For Tianjifang, Jiang Xiaobai was no longer just a distinguished guest.

This was clearly a treasure trove they had never seen before!

Standing to the side, Zhang Xinnian couldn't help but puff out his chest as he looked at Chang Ying's shocked expression.

did you see it?

This is the heir of his family!

Tang Ningshuang glanced at Jiang Xiaobai.

She originally thought that Jiang Xiaobai only knew a little about arithmetic.

But judging from what she's hearing now, it seems this guy is hiding far more than she imagined.

Just how many secrets does this person still hold?!

Just then, the flow chamber trembled slightly and stopped.

Chang Ying then came to her senses, quickly suppressed her excitement, and took the initiative to open the door.

"Young Master Jiang, please!"

After Jiang Xiaobai stepped out of the room, he looked around and his eyes lit up.

The environment on the tenth floor is completely different from that below.

There's none of the noise on the first floor, nor the coldness of the armory.

The entire space appears extremely spacious.

The surrounding area is planted with many flowers and plants, and there is a small stream of water brought in by the wall, flowing slowly along the bluestone trough.

The windows are very large, and from their vantage point, they can overlook half of Beijing.

A gentle breeze blew in from outside, carrying a faint fragrance of flowers.

Jiang Xiaobai was somewhat surprised.

The interior design of Tianji Workshop is truly unique!

"Only the young master and a few head stewards are allowed to come up to the tenth floor on weekdays."

Chang Ying explained from the side, "The young master prefers quiet, so the layout here is a little different from downstairs."

"I can tell."

Jiang Xiaobai nodded.

This place certainly doesn't look like a government office.

It resembles the residence of a refined scholar.

Soon, the group walked through a long corridor and arrived at a door.

Chang Ying stopped and gently knocked on the door: "Young Master, Young Master Jiang has arrived!"

After he finished speaking, the room fell silent for a moment.

Soon, footsteps were heard, and a moment later, the door opened from the inside.

A figure then came into view, and at the same time, someone politely said, "This must be Young Master Jiang, right? Please come inside..."
