Reborn 1980, I amaze the world by picking up scraps

The people can follow it but cannot know it. This is the ruling thought of ancient emperors.

This means that just let the people follow the arranged path, there is no need to let them know why.

In ancient times, officials were set up to serve the emperor's herdsmen. Why is the word "herds" used?

In fact, in the eyes of the emperor, the common people are nobler creatures than cattle and sheep. As long as they are obedient and pay taxes, there is no need to know so much.

The more the people know, the more active their ideas will be. If they don’t know anything, the more ignorant they will be, the more likely they are to be in control.

Under imperial power, knowledge served the ruling class.

"The Yongle Dadian was not compiled for the common people. It was specially compiled for the emperor, so there are only originals and copies." Mrs. Geng patiently explained the science.

Yuanni suddenly realized that this was the case. No wonder Emperor Yongle would spend manpower and material resources to compile such a strange book.

It was compiled but not printed on a large scale. It turned out that this was a popular science book prepared for the emperor, and they never thought of letting the common people read it.

"How wonderful it is now. There is also a library. Anyone who wants to study can study. In ancient times, there was no such condition." Mr. Geng sighed and continued to open the pages of the book.

Let’s not talk about others, let’s just talk about Mr. Geng and Mrs. Geng. The educational resources they received were very limited. If they hadn’t been persistent, learning while doing, and gaining true knowledge through practice, they wouldn’t be where they are today.

Yuanni nodded. The Dragon Kingdom spans 5000 years and has a profound history. The more she comes into contact with antiques, the more she feels that she lacks knowledge.

Thinking of those blind spots in knowledge, Yuan Ni felt even more grateful that she had been admitted to college and had learned a lot.

The three of them were chatting and dividing papers. They didn't even eat lunch. By two or three o'clock in the afternoon, they finally separated all the papers.

Mrs. Geng slapped her sore waist, "I'm old, I can't endure the hardships like when I was young."

Mr. Geng used a magnifying glass to check the papers one by one. "It's a farming book, but unfortunately there are missing pages."

Yuanni thought of the bag of calligraphy paper and hoped that the missing pages were in the bag.

However, we can’t put too much hope in it. After all, Master Tao said that he gave the writing paper to my mother so that she could use it to start the fire. I don’t know how many priceless treasures Mrs. Tao burned...

"These papers are just left to dry. Tomorrow we will bring something to remove the paste stuck to the paper."

Yuan Ni nodded, an expert is an expert. The paper that Mr. Geng and Mrs. Geng had processed had no traces at all. After removing the paste, it was impossible to tell that it was removed from the window lattice.

"Grandpa and grandma, take a rest, wash your hands and eat..."

As soon as Yuan Ni finished speaking, she heard someone shouting in the yard, "Mom, Mao Dan, Gou Dan, open the door quickly."

This is the voice of the fourth uncle.

Before Yuan Ni could react, Maodan Goudan had already rushed out and opened the door with cheers, "The color TV is back."

This generation lives in a cultural desert. After eating, the first thing they want to do is save money to buy a TV.

Only colorful TV programs, books and movies can satisfy spiritual needs and bring a glimmer of comfort to dry minds.

The fourth uncle pushed a tricycle through the door. There was a large cardboard box on the tricycle, and the fourth aunt held it carefully.

"Don't reach out, let me hold you." The fourth uncle was afraid that Maodangoudan would stumble, so he shouted them both away, then carried the carton into the main room in one breath and placed it on the ground.

Yuanni locked the house and went out with Mr. Geng and Mrs. Geng.

"Fourth uncle, did the TV purchase go smoothly?"

"It went very smoothly, but there were too many people in line. When it was our turn, the salesperson didn't want to try it. Fortunately, we insisted on trying it, so he turned on the TV." The fourth uncle said with a smile.

It’s hard to make money, but it’s hard to spend it. I just gave away more than 1000 yuan. What if there is something wrong with the TV I bought back?So you have to give it a try.

My fourth uncle knew how to fix the TV because he had watched the salesperson tinker with it before.

He took the TV out of the carton and kicked away the foam plastic, "Just put it on the chest of drawers?"

Grandma and grandpa have already vacated the things, "Okay, just put them up there."

The chest of drawers is a little higher than the square table, but not too high, so you don’t have to look up at it.

After placing the TV in place, the fourth uncle began to play with the antenna, "This thing is very important. If you don't put the antenna properly, you won't be able to get the station."

Yuanni looked on with a smile.

Since the task of buying a TV has been given to my fourth uncle and fourth aunt, let them take care of it, so that I can have a sense of accomplishment.

The fourth uncle didn't read much, but he was very good with his hands. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to repair the bicycle. He quickly set up the antenna and powered on the TV.

"Should I turn on the TV now?" The fourth uncle rubbed his hands excitedly.

Several old people had already sat on the sofa, and they all said together, "Let's go."

Damn it, Xiaowen Xiaoyu had already moved a small bench over, "There will be a replay of Volleyball Girls this afternoon, so I can watch it again."

Nowadays, TV programs are limited, and the TV series that were broadcast during prime time the day before will be broadcast again the next afternoon.

Fourth uncle turned on the TV with trembling hands...

The color TV lived up to expectations, buzzing and showing a snowflake to everyone.

"Hey, we still need to adjust the antenna."

"No, Xuebing, you have to adjust the channel first." The fourth aunt was a little anxious, why is the man so unreliable?Obviously the salesperson said so.

"Yes, yes, adjust the channel first."

The channel adjustment is also done manually. The salesperson said that the signals received in this urban area are all transmitted by Beijing TV Station.

Channel [-] is the central channel, channel [-] and [-] are local channels, and the female volleyball player is on channel [-].

Being stared at by more than a dozen pairs of eyes, the fourth uncle was under great pressure. He sweated and struggled for more than half an hour, and finally got the channel out.

The passionate soundtrack of the female volleyball player sounded in the room.

Everyone got excited and said, "The sound is nice, it's really real."

"The image is also beautiful. This person looks just like the real person."

"It was originally shot with real people."

Everyone was staring at the TV, and no one noticed that the fourth uncle's hand had been holding the antenna. As soon as he moved his hand away, the antenna would sink and the image would disappear.

So the fourth uncle didn't dare to move at all, and the sweat on his face became more and more.

Yuan Ni's stomach growled with hunger, and she looked at her grandma and grandpa who were sitting upright and focused on the TV. She didn't mention it with a wink, and turned directly into the kitchen.

The fourth uncle and the fourth aunt probably didn't eat either. Grandma must have left food for them. All they had to do was bring the food into the house.

The weather was too hot, so the kitchen had long turned off the fire. The food was covered with a gauze on the square table. When I opened the gauze, I saw a large pot of cold skin with garlic sauce and a pot of spinach and bean sprouts mixed with gluten.

Smell the sour and spicy taste, Yuan Ni immediately salivated. This is the best thing to eat in summer, it is appetizing and relieves the heat.

She picked up the cold skin with garlic sauce. As soon as she walked into the courtyard, she heard a commotion in the alley, and someone shouted to be careful, don't touch the cabinet...

Is this someone moving?

Yuan Nier looked out curiously and saw...
