"Shua shua shua!"
The study room was silent, only the sound of the brush tip rubbing against the paper could be heard. The paper was of course the new paper produced by the Qi Qu Pavilion, and the brush was made from super fine weasel hair. After all, Li Zexuan was writing questions and not practicing calligraphy. Otherwise, wouldn't it be too wasteful if he could only write a few words on a piece of paper?
Two hours later.
"Whew!"
Li Zexuan rubbed his wrist and let out a long breath. This kind of brush had a high requirement for the strength of the wrist, and it was tiring to write for a long time.
"Fill in the blanks, multiple choice, calculation, application, perfect!"
Li Zexuan looked at the test paper in his hand and praised narcissistically.
He had been practicing calligraphy for the past few months, and now he had some success in calligraphy. After all, he was a martial artist and had experience in controlling his strength. Speaking of martial arts, this guy rarely practiced martial arts ever since he went to the Imperial College to teach. He probably forgot that he was a martial arts expert!
"Young master, you're done? Drink some water! "
Xiao Xi, who was grinding ink, quickly put down the ink stick in her hand and went to pour some water for Li Zexuan. Now, the servants in the Li residence knew that their young master did not like to drink tea, no matter how good the tea was. Thus, Xiao Xi said water and not tea.
"Okay!"
Li Zexuan nodded, then took the test paper and started to check it.
After a while.
Xiao Xi held a cup of water and slowly walked over.
"Young master, here's your water!"
Unexpectedly, Li Zexuan suddenly slapped the table like a lunatic and exclaimed:
"No, there should be an additional question! I was wondering why it didn't taste good! Xiao Xi, help me grind more ink! "
"Oh! Right away! "
Xiao Xi was helpless, she could only pout and reply, then continued to grind.
Fifteen minutes later, the test paper was finally completed. Li Zexuan picked up his cup of water and happily drank a few mouthfuls. He smiled and said, "Xiao Xi, tell San Bao to send this test paper to the workshop and ask the printing department to print 46 copies. Then send it to the imperial college and give it to Mr. Xu!"
"Oh, yes, young master!"
Xiao Xi agreed weakly. She took the test papers and was about to go out to look for San Bao when she suddenly thought of something. She asked curiously, "Young Master, didn't you only print 38 copies of the test papers last time? Why are you printing eight more copies this time? "
In the beginning, there were 32 students in the Imperial College of Mathematics. Later, Li Tai, Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaiyu, and Yuchi Baolin came. Including Li Zexuan and Xu Hongzhi, there were 38 students in total.
Li Zexuan smiled mischievously and said, "Heh! Because there would be new students coming to the School of Mathematics tomorrow! Xiao Xi, go quickly! Remember to keep the test papers a secret ~! "
Kong Yingda had already informed him yesterday that Sun Zifan, Yu Dongcai, and the other rich second generations were going to be transferred to the School of Mathematics. As there were some procedures to complete, the official transfer to the School of Mathematics was delayed until tomorrow.
Li Zexuan really didn't want to teach these little bastards. They were all rich second generations and little rascals. They were the type of troublemakers who were difficult to manage. If they were transferred over, it would definitely affect the learning style of the School of Mathematics. Uh, although the learning style of the School of Mathematics had already been changed by Cheng Chumo, it was still within his control.
Li Zexuan originally planned to wait for these little rascals to come to the School of Mathematics tomorrow to show them who was the boss. This was to prevent them from being dishonest and causing trouble in the future. Who knew that he would be grounded by Li Er when he came back. He didn't expect this, but this didn't mean that he couldn't teach them a lesson.
Everyone knew the reason why Sun Zifan and the other rascals wanted to come to the School of Mathematics. It definitely wasn't because they admired Li Zexuan's new mathematics.
Hehe, since you guys are here because of the holidays, then I'll let you guys have a taste of the School of Mathematics' demonic exam!
Li Zexuan laughed sinisterly in his heart. The question he set this time was on the more difficult side. He estimated that it would be difficult to find a student who scored more than 80 points in the class. Therefore, he kindly added an additional question to give the students some "benefits" and add some extra material!
"Yes, Young Master, don't worry. Xiao Xi definitely won't leak the questions!"
Xiao Xi agreed and ran out quickly. However, she left a sentence in the air: "Young Master, your smile is so sinister ~!"
Li Zexuan: "…"
.....
The next day.
"Newspapers are sold! Newspapers are sold! The freshly printed Datang Daily! Today's headlines — Lantian County Man Says Books Will Be Expensive for the Next Three Years! Friends who want to read, quickly buy the newspapers! "
"What? Books are expensive? Give me a copy! Let me see! "
"Give me a copy, I want to read 'The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality'!"
"Give me two copies!"
"Qiqu Culture, good job. I support Qiqu Culture to lower the prices of their books!"
.....
The popularity of the newspaper that had been trending for four days did not decrease at all. Instead, it became even more popular among the people of Chang 'an. There were even many people who went around to buy the previous newspapers just to read the first few issues of' The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality '.
Of course, the people who paid attention to the newspaper were not just ordinary readers. There were also many businessmen.
In the past two days, with the popularity of the newspaper and the bombardment of advertisements, Qiqu Culture's newly opened shop also became very popular. Other than the low prices of their books, the effect of the advertisements in the newspaper could not be ignored. Otherwise, it would not have become so popular so quickly!
As a matter of fact, there were already many businessmen who were eager to "show their faces" in the newspaper!
Xi City, a certain Huji Tavern, back hall.
(The Huji Tavern was a place where the waitresses were all women from the West. They were known as Huji. They were an important factor behind the popularity of Huji Wine in the Tang Dynasty cities. In ancient times, there were not many young women who were Huji. These Huji Taverns opened up a new era for the Tang Dynasty Chang 'an food market.)
"Master, do you want to look for Datang Daily and ask them to promote our tavern?"
A tall, blonde beauty with blue eyes was wearing a thin veil that exposed her small waist. Her breasts were also faintly discernible. At this moment, she was sitting on the lap of a slightly plump, bearded middle-aged man who was dressed in extremely luxurious clothes. Her arms were wrapped around the middle-aged man's neck as she spoke.
"Hehe, why would my Snow Cherry say that?"
The bearded man closed his eyes in satisfaction. His right hand kept sliding around the woman's waist.
"Master ~! Didn't you read the newspaper these past two days? Qiqu Culture is such a small, unknown shop. After being in the newspaper, everyone knows about it. Our Yunlai Tavern has been in business for so many years. If we were to be in the newspaper, wouldn't our business be even better? "
The woman twisted her slender waist and said coquettishly.
The middle-aged man's hand suddenly paused. He laughed out loud and said, "Eh, why didn't I think of that! Haha, Snow Cherry, I'm so lucky to have married you! I'll go to their workshop now and ask them to help us promote it! "
