In the morning, Ren Xiaosu was reading in the library, while An Yuqian was sitting at the library's entrance, leaning against a chair and sleeping soundly.
If the sunlight shone on An Yuqian's face from outside the door, he would cover his face with a book to block the light.
Every morning when Ren Xiaosu arrived, he would automatically give An Yuqian ten yuan. As for An Yuqian, there was no need for Ren Xiaosu to call and urge him to come. He would just yawn and wait at the entrance at 8: 30 am every day.
Gradually, An Yuqian felt very uncomfortable doing this. He used to play mahjong all night long and then have a good sleep at home in the morning.
But after Ren Xiaosu arrived, he could only sleep in the library while leaning against a chair!
How could leaning against a chair be as comfortable as sleeping on a bed?
While there was no one in the library, An Yuqian took the opportunity to observe what Ren Xiaosu was reading. He nearly died of laughter when he found out that he was reading first-year math, physics, and chemistry textbooks!
Ren Xiaosu's persistence in coming to the library for so many days finally made An Yuqian look at him in a different light. An Yuqian thought to himself that there was finally a studious person in the library, but in the end, he was reading first-year textbooks.
Judging from Ren Xiaosu's age, he should be in his third year of high school, right? Could it be that he was a poor student who had to study from scratch?
An Yuqian did some calculations with his fingers. There were only three months left until the college entrance examination. Would it be too late for him to study now?
Despite An Yuqian strolling around, Ren Xiaosu did not even look up at him.
An Yuqian could not help but say, "Isn't it a little too late for you to study now? There's only three months left before the college entrance examination!"
Ren Xiaosu looked up at him. "I'm not taking the college entrance examination."
"You're not taking the college entrance examination? Then why are you studying first-year math, physics, and chemistry? "An Yuqian was shocked." Won't you be going to the factory after graduation? What's the point of studying that? "
"Knowledge is useful. The knowledge I learn is mine," Ren Xiaosu said calmly.
An Yuqian shrugged and turned around to leave. "Don't forget to eat before breakfast every day. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even need to eat breakfast. These expenses are all because of you …"
"Got it," Ren Xiaosu said.
However, An Yuqian suddenly realized that other than Ren Xiaosu, there was another group of students who had suddenly come to study in the afternoon.
There were more than 20 male and female students in total, and they had been sitting in the library for the whole afternoon, for several days straight.
In the past, although there were people who came to read in the afternoon, it was not so frequent and stable, and the number was so orderly. This group of students … actually sat next to Ren Xiaosu in an organized and disciplined manner.
After An Yuqian woke up in the afternoon, he went over to take a look. He realized Wang Yuchi and the others were reading books related to machinery manufacturing. They had long surpassed the high school syllabus.
When the library was about to close, Wang Yuchi suddenly said to Ren Xiaosu, "Class Rep, it's time to close the library and go home, right?"
An Yuqian was stunned on the spot. This young man who gave him money for breakfast every day was actually the class monitor of this group of students? Normal students learn things that are beyond the syllabus, but the class leader studies on her own?
What kind of mess was this …
Ren Xiaosu looked up at the sky and said, "You guys head back first. I'll continue reading for a while."
"Hey!" An Yuqian couldn't sit still any longer. "It's time for me to get off work, understand?!"
"I'll give you 50 yuan!" Ren Xiaosu said without looking up.
An Yuqian said unhappily, "That won't do either. I have to go play mahjong. Who knows, I might be able to recoup my losses tonight!"
Ren Xiaosu quietly put the book back on the shelf and turned to leave.
The next morning, the first thing Ren Xiaosu said when he saw An Yuqian was, "Did you recoup your losses?"
"Why are you so talkative, kid?" An Yuqian gritted his teeth. "Is this something you should be asking?"
"Then you've lost money." Ren Xiaosu slapped a ten yuan note at An Yuqian. "Let's go eat breakfast."
An Yuqian felt insulted as he held the ten yuan in his hand.
In the afternoon, when Wang Yuchi and the others returned, An Yuqian suddenly sat down across from them. Ren Xiaosu looked up at him in surprise. "What's the matter?"
An Yuqian said, "You're focusing on building machinery, right? But the books you're reading aren't right!"
Ren Xiaosu frowned and glanced at the books in Wang Yuchi and the others' hands. "Then how should I read them?"
Without a teacher to guide them, they could only grope their way forward like they were crossing a river while hugging rocks. Their progress was extremely slow.
Although Jiang Wu was a teacher, she was also a language teacher.
An Yuqian said, "I'll tell you what you should be reading for 500 yuan!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ren Xiaosu threw 500 yuan at him. Wang Yuchi whispered from the side, "Monitor, why do I feel like he's a scammer?"
Ren Xiaosu shook his head. "A scammer wouldn't not even have money for breakfast."
An Yuqian nearly cursed out loud. He was insinuating that he wasn't even qualified to be a scammer!
An Yuqian sneered and said, "If you want to learn machinery systematically, don't try to learn how to run when you haven't even learned how to walk. You have to learn math and physics well first!"
Ren Xiaosu leaned back in his chair and listened quietly. Meanwhile, Wang Yuchi and the others had already started flipping through their notebooks and were about to take notes.
"I suggest you all read Chen Jixiu's Mathematical Analysis first as an introduction. After that, linear algebra is a must. It's not enough for you to learn it in high school."
"Don't bother reading Universal Physics." An Yuqian threw a book on the table. "Just read Feynman's lecture notes."
"Real Analysis … Forget it, don't read that for now.
"As for the methods of mathematical physics, just watch Wang Dexin's lecture. Everyone basically talks about real-variable functions, special functions, mathematical equations, and the like. There's not much difference between them.
"You should also read the Thermodynamics Series, right?"
An Yuqian went on for half an hour. Ren Xiaosu felt that it would take him several years to learn all of this. However, An Yuqian smacked his lips and said, "You've only just gotten started. If you want to really get into the intricacies of manufacturing machinery, you're still far from it!"
Ren Xiaosu understood. So this fellow was just here to show off his eloquence.
However, Ren Xiaosu also realized that An Yuqian was no ordinary person. Even if he were a scammer, he probably wouldn't memorize so many things just to earn 500 yuan. More importantly, no one could teach him how to memorize them.
Ren Xiaosu looked at An Yuqian and said, "If you teach them, I'll pay you 500 yuan per lesson."
An Yuqian's eyes lit up, but he immediately became reserved. "My time is very precious …"
“400。”
"Hey, why is it getting less and less!"
“300。”
"I'll teach! 500！ Not a single cent less! "
Ren Xiaosu laughed. "If you don't teach them well, I won't pay you."
"How can I not teach them well?" An Yuqian's eyes widened. "I, An Yuqian … Forget it, you wouldn't understand even if I told you!"
But An Yuqian suddenly felt that the young man in front of him was probably more complicated than he had imagined. Which normal student would fork out 500 yuan for a lesson?
