Chapter 2 Past and Present
…
As the name suggests, the magpie is chattering and talking non-stop, especially when she still let go of her guard against the kind and understanding Cai, she chatters and talking non-stop.
And Cai Jian, from the bottom of his heart, isn’t it easy to trick an old fried dough stick who has lived for thirty-five or six years to deceive a child without any intention?
One willing to say it.
An invisible guide.
Not long after, Cai still tried many things.
This includes Cai Shen’s current identity.
Now, his surname is Cai, and his name is still the same as his previous life, except that he is now the only son of Cai Bian, the prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty and the calligrapher.
Speaking of Cai Bian, many people may not be familiar with it, but when it comes to Cai Bian's compatriot brother, he is definitely known to everyone. He is Cai Jing, the prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty and the famous leader of the six thieves of the Northern Song Dynasty.
In the third year of Xining, Cai Bian and his brother Cai Jing were admitted to the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination.
In the fourth year of Shaosheng, Cai Bian was promoted to the Left Chief of the Shangshu and served as the Privy Council. He took charge of the military power of the Northern Song Dynasty at that time and was also one of the prime ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty at that time.
Cai Bian is an honest official, diligent and loving the people.
Because Cai Bian's political reputation was outstanding, the Yi people knew that he was honest and wanted to leave, so they used the most solemn etiquette of sprinkling rose dew on their clothes to see him off. This is what the "History of the Song Dynasty" records: "Guangzhou's treasures gathered together and nothing was taken. When they moved to Yue, the Yi people cleared him and sent him off with sprinkling roses."
Cai Bian's reputation even spread to the Liao Kingdom. After Song Zhezong ascended the throne, Cai Bian was promoted to the Minister of Rites. He was envoyed to Liao Kingdom, and the people of Liao were well-known.
Moreover, Cai Bian was deeply loved by Wang Anshi, a famous prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty. Wang Anshi even betrothed the second daughter to Cai Bian.
In other words, Wang Anshi is Cai Bian's father-in-law and Cai Jian's grandfather.
By the way, it is precisely because of Cai Bian's recommendation that Cai Jing was able to enter the core of the reformist school and become the current power minister who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people.
In this way, Cai is still born in a famous family.
Unfortunately, Wang Anshi had already died more than 30 years ago, and Cai Shen's mother Wang had already died more than 10 years ago. Even Cai Shen's father Cai Bian had already died two years ago. Now he is the only one left in the Cai Shen family.
Cai Shen came to Bianliang City, Tokyo because of participating in this year's scientific expedition. Cai Shen's uncle Cai Jing forced Cai Shen to live in his Mingluan Hall on the grounds that "there is no shortage of places for you to live in, so there is no need to live outside."
In other words, this is not Cai Shen’s home, but Cai Jing’s Grand Tutor’s Mansion.
After understanding his current identity, being in the realm, and testing out many other things, Cai still accepted the fact that he had traveled through time and came to the late Northern Song Dynasty.
This fact is really hard for Cai to accept, but Cai still does not resist this fact. On the contrary, Cai is still looking forward to the wonderful life in the future.
There is naturally a reason why Cai is still like this.
Cai was originally a child of a farmer.
Because his family was poor and had no money to support him in school, he dropped out of school before graduating from high school at the age of 18 and joined the army.
At first, he was just an ordinary naval recruit.
Later, because of his great combat talent and strong learning ability, he was selected into the Marine Corps step by step and became a frightening frogman.
After serving in the Frogman Army for five years, he was promoted to the captain level of the Frogman Squad because of his military merits. If it weren't for his insufficient education, he might have been promoted to lieutenant colonel and to become the captain of the Frogman Squad.
It can be said that his life before he was twenty-five was both wonderful and smooth.
Until that year he went to Mali to attend peacekeeping.
During a mission, he was hit by the aftermath of the explosion of the enemy's self-destruction truck, flew out of the broken window on the sixth floor, and then hit the ground heavily.
The fall did not take his life, but made him a useless person - five sections of his spine were broken and his left leg was comminuted fractured. After treatment, although he was not paralyzed and unable to take care of himself, he was basically disabled. The country even issued him a disability certificate.
fine--
Because he was a combat hero and because of the disability caused when he was on duty, after Cai Shen was discharged from the army, the troops gave Cai Shen a total of one million in three sessions, and issued a monthly disability subsidy of 2,000 yuan to Cai Shen.
To be honest, for Cai Jian, who later settled in a third-tier city, the money was enough for him to spend his life.
But Cai was only twenty-six years old at that time, how could he be willing to retire here?
But then again, with Cai Shen’s physical condition at that time, what could he do?
Can't find something that can be done, Cai can only pass the time by reading online novels.
This looks like three or four years.
After reading a lot, Cai still naturally thought: "Why don't I make a living by writing novels? This company can do it with a head and a pair of hands."
Thinking of this, Cai still plunged into the vast writing army.
Many industries are like this, it looks simple, but when it comes to working, you will know how deep the water is.
When Cai Shen first came into contact with the novel writing industry, a contract was signed, and Cai Shen was stuck for more than half a year. In order to sign the contract, Cai Liu wrote and deleted it, and finally wrote it all, and the editor was moved by Cai Shen's persistence. He signed Cai Shen, making Cai Shen one of millions of online authors.
But signing a contract is just the first step in writing. It can only prove that you can write books and make money by writing books, but whether you can make money has to be said again.
Cai Shen's first book can only earn a pitiful 300 full attendance every month.
Cai still wrote this book for one year and three months.
Cai Shen's second book earns 1,500 a month.
Cai still wrote this book for a year and eight months.
Cai Shen’s third book can finally earn more than 3,000 yuan per month.
But just when Cai still wanted to write three to five million words, one day, Cai still turned on the computer and was shocked to find that his book was gone.
After learning from the pain, Cai still decided to give up the sensitive subjects he was good at and enter the relatively safe field of history, and opened the fourth book in his life - a history book with the theme of Water Margin.
This is also his last book in his life.
The historical research party is so terrible. Even if there is something wrong, their artillery fire will be overwhelmed.
In order not to be criticized too hard, when Cai was still writing this fourth book, he carefully checked the information, carefully verified it, tried to conform to historical facts, and tried to let these intensive party calm their power.
For this reason, Cai still even made up the two important historical materials from the late Northern Song Dynasty to the early Southern Song Dynasty, "The Three Dynasties Beimenghui" and "The Year Records Since Jianyan".
It's a pity-
Perhaps because of his own level, this fourth book ended up failing.
But even so, Cai still tried his best to write this floppy book well and finished it.
The author's fate is that life never stops and writing never stops.
Shortly after the fourth book was completed, Cai still began to prepare his fifth book.
Because I am familiar with the history of the Song Dynasty, especially from the late Northern Song Dynasty to the early Southern Song Dynasty, the fifth book prepared by Cai Shen is still from this period.
In order to achieve results and to make money, Cai still carefully sorted out the already familiar history of the Song Dynasty, so that the fifth book could make himself turn over.
However, things are impermanent, and before the new book is uploaded, he travels through time...
