Lucifer sacrificed too much for world peace

This announcement was seen by everyone the next day.

Eden Daily has given the most conspicuous section on the homepage. The word steam power is placed in a particularly large font to ensure that anyone can notice it at first glance.

The general content is that everyone who is interested in steam power is sincerely invited to go to the Eden Apple Store to participate in the first steam engine seminar, followed by the design explanatory diagram of the steam engine and the idea of ​​putting the steam powered car into use with the text restored to normal size.

Due to the world's tradition of open knowledge, there is no need to keep the information confidential. Some information that can attract professionals is published in the newspapers carelessly, and they are very scheming. It's gone, and it's gone again. It's very itchy, and I wish I could rush to the library and take out all the materials to have a look.

Not only newspapers, Lucifer also entrusted the printing factory to print a bunch of advertisement leaflets, and asked the newly established Eden Chamber of Commerce to help him distribute them in other cities when he went out to do business.

The members of the chamber of commerce have short mouths, always feel that Lucifer is doing charity, and have always admired Lucifer. In addition, they are also the beneficiary group after the steam car is built, so everyone is very proud of this great sage, and they pat each other Chest promises to send out all the leaflets.

Even if they themselves are inconvenient to travel far recently, they have handed over to the hired people and asked them to complete the task. In short, the sage can rest assured.

Lucifer doesn’t expect people from remote places to rush over. After all, it takes time for caravans to go there. The seminars are over. Those who are far away know that there is such a seminar in the Garden of Eden. It’s best. At that time, we will catch up with the second session directly.

He calculated the time and set the seminar for next month. Those who are interested in cities with similar distances can reach the Garden of Eden in time.

Since this is the first time that the simple people have seen such a large-scale advertisement, this matter immediately became a hot topic in the Garden of Eden-people from other places have not received the news, and they will probably be shocked when they see the overwhelming leaflets Wave.

Because the church didn't come forward to stop it, most people who were used to putting their minds on the church couldn't realize the huge impact of the steam machine. They just talked about the part they could understand with relish.

For example, after the steam car is put into use, how fast can they go to other places? Can you consider visiting other cities?

Most people in this era have never left the place where they were born. On the one hand, the transportation is underdeveloped, and on the other hand, it is unnecessary. Only some people who admire heroic epics too much and have some traditional ideas will go to other places to broaden their horizons. Take some trials, prove yourself or something.

If you can go to other places in the future without bumping on the road for so long, and you can go back and forth easily, your previous concerns will be resolved, and everyone is looking forward to the steam car being put into use as soon as possible.

"But what kind of seminar is this... I have never heard of it before, does it mean that it is more difficult?"

Things like cement, paper, glass... It feels as if they were all developed silently. Why is the steam engine making such a big noise this time, which is different from other inventions?

Lucifer actually wanted to attract all talents to the Garden of Eden, so that he would not be able to find people when he needed to hire people in the future—anyway, information and knowledge would be made public, so there was no need to worry about monopoly—as for emphasizing the benefits of putting them into use, it was to dispel everyone’s disbelief. The concerns of reform made them focus on the places that are beneficial to them, subtly accept the steam engine, so as not to add to the chaos, and advertised to kill multiple birds with one stone.

But people who have never seen this kind of formation are very confused, unable to guess the intention, only think that it may be difficult.

"This... I don't know. Since it is the first session, there should be a second session? Who knows how many sessions it will take to get this steam engine out."

Someone with a little understanding said: "No, it's just that if it's just a steam engine, the principle is almost the same. Now it's put into practical use and needs to be improved according to the equipment. The loss caused by friction is also a problem balalabala..."

Everyone ignored this overly serious discussion and continued: "If possible, I would like to visit the Tower of Babel. I heard that there is a hanging garden over there."

"I want to go to Utopia. A friend of mine moved to Utopia. Because of the inconvenient travel, we haven't seen each other for a long time. If the steam train is available, we might still see each other as often as before."

In short, in this wonderful atmosphere of national discussion, even people who don’t read newspapers have heard about this seminar. Even though the seminar is still early, it has managed to make a name for itself. Some people have already gone directly to the Apple store Come to inquire about the situation.

For example, ask the sage who published the announcement, where can I find the materials that cited the steam engine.

Lucifer was happy to hear about this situation, even if this person came into the store without paying a penny, but just came to ask a question, he also readily reported a list of books.

This leads to a consequence...

"Master Sage, if I want to study bees, do you have any recommended books?"

"Great Sage! Do you have any recommendations for advanced mechanical engineering?"

Lucifer: "..."

Although he was very speechless, most of the time Lucifer still answered the questions well, because the library here is archived according to title and function, but some books can’t tell what’s in it just by looking at the title, even if they are placed in the relevant area It may also be missed.

The librarian is just an ordinary person. It would be good if he can remember the approximate location of each category. It is difficult for him to remember the content of each book. As for the recommendation of books that are suitable for the borrower according to the level of the borrower , it is even more impossible.

But this is not a problem here with Lucifer, who has an unforgettable memory.

For a while, Lucifer's Apple Store added another project, which made the already famous Lucifer even more famous. Everyone believed in Lucifer's identity as a great sage, and the filter deepened.

Fortunately, I can solve them all by myself, and there are not many people who have to ask Lucifer to solve them. After focusing on answering a group of people who have accumulated questions for a long time, the Apple store has become clean again.

Cleanliness is not only because fewer people come to ask questions, but also like backgammon, people can play it in other places, if it is not for rewards, there is no need to come to the store to pay for points, and Lucifer does not prohibit it this kind of thing.

On the contrary, after more and more people came here for learning, some people were embarrassed to prostitute Lucifer for nothing, so they participated in the "trial" and changed drinks such as Coke. They rummaged through what they finally found while eating and drinking here. Book.

Lucifer saw it, and suddenly an idea popped up in his mind. One day, he replaced a wall with a material that is convenient for sticking pins, so that some people who encounter difficulties in research can write down their problems, and then stick them in. on the wall.

Not long after, a study corner appeared in Lucifer's Apple Store. Some people who usually study by themselves finally made friends here.

In order to encourage people to study and research, Lucifer even said that as long as someone answers the question on the wall and gets the approval of the owner of the question, it is also considered a point.

This kind of behavior of taking advantage of others will definitely be used by black-hearted customers until they go bankrupt. However, it is still very difficult to cheat in Eden, so it quickly entered a virtuous circle.

"Master Sage is really thoughtful."

Several old men and old ladies who often come to play mahjong said with emotion when chatting.

"My child usually likes to be alone, and I worry that he won't be able to make friends. Now that he has friends with whom he can chat, it's all thanks to Mr. Sage."

"Oh, the one at my house is the same, so I can finally rest assured."

Because Lucifer did things without telling God back then, and enlightened mankind without authorization, God acquiesced and did not make corrections, so human beings still respect knowledge to this day.

In fact, most people can't research anything that has obvious effects, and can immediately invest in practical things, but as long as he is researching, learning, and has research results, he will not be accused of doing nothing, which can be regarded as some people's escapism. means.

Lucifer can understand.

It's like being single for a long time and looking at a dog with beautiful eyes. The world is so boring that even learning and research seem interesting.For some people, the pleasure of learning is even as good as "playing".

It is also thanks to the large area of ​​the store, and the time limit for the "trial" for people under the age of 25 - there is no way, he is afraid that it will arouse people's desires - it will be too late, it really makes people addicted The game is not doing business - when the time comes, a group of people's "trial props" will be confiscated, and there has been no shortage of places so far.

However, Lucifer's artificial anti-addiction operation forced those who wanted to earn points to pay attention to the study corner.

There is a time limit for earning points in the trial, but there is no limit for answering other people's questions!

For a while, the atmosphere that had drifted before the Garden of Eden was completely suppressed. Since the first time everyone discovered that the trial was so fun, they relaxed their studies, and then they did not delay learning and playing, and even spent more time on their studies——As for People who no longer study and have no special skills, then there is nothing they can do. After the trial time is over, go back to work hard...

Gauss, who is good at mathematics, is writing the value he calculated under a question at this moment, and then signed his name, and also marked the time when he usually comes to the Apple store, so that the other party can contact him.

The person who asked the question didn't know what he was researching. In short, the amount of calculation was very large, so he had to ask others for help. Gauss liked this kind of problem the most.

As soon as he finished writing, he heard his girlfriend calling him.

"Luther! Come and see!" Miss Dumas greeted him, "The sample of our first newspaper has been printed!"

Gauss has always supported his girlfriend in launching this literary newspaper, and has been listening to her report on the progress, but he was still talking about the cost issue a few days ago, and he was very surprised that there was a sample issue today.

The sample issue was brought over by a woman named Franklin because she was relatively close to the newspaper office.She is a new member of the literary club. She is the oldest member of the club. She is in her 30s. She doesn't often participate in their discussions, and she doesn't know what she is busy with.

Gauss walked over to read the newspaper, and asked quietly: "Didn't you say the cost—"

"Master Sage has invested in us!" Alexandre Dumas said excitedly, "And we don't need manuscript fees, we only need printing and typesetting fees, and I'm very happy to be able to print it out. Please help me to see, is the sample magazine okay? , is there anything that needs to be modified?"

Gauss has actually read all the serialized novels on this page in order to have a common language with his girlfriend. He scanned them at a glance, then turned the pages until he reached the last page——

He saw the very familiar advertisement for the first steam engine seminar.

Gauss: "...???"

During this period of time, I felt that people were discussing this seminar everywhere, but I didn’t expect that even my girlfriend’s new newspaper couldn’t avoid it...

"After all, Lord Sage invested."

Alexandre Dumas noticed his sudden pause and explained: "He said that this is called buying advertising space. He hoped that we would print more newspapers. He sent the caravan to other places to help us expand our readership. That’s great, he also said that in the future, let us sell a few more advertising spaces, and the cost will be returned! But the premise is that the sales volume must be high... In short, we plan to make a good job of this newspaper.”

Gauss: "I see, the advertising space..."

——How did the wise man grow his brain?How curious!
