166 Four basic disciplines of social progress
Abel Vera did not refuse Jiang Xilin's request to do the shopping for her. In fact, she had no reason to refuse.
After all, this is something that is good for herself and the growing family.
However, if this business wants to be successful, there is still a very critical issue that needs to be solved, or determined.
"There is no problem on my side, but are your friends in Dongting City willing to do it with us?"
"There should be no problem with her. When I was still in Dongting City, I had a casual chat with her about this matter. She said at that time that if the partner was me, she would have no problem, although it is not ruled out that she was joking.
There are elements in it, but there must be some subconscious intention in every joke."
Abel Vera:……
If you haven’t asked formally, then you haven’t asked formally. What else is there to say about the subconscious level?
"It's better to write a letter to ask for their opinions first."
"Well, I'll write it after dinner later."
"Dinner? What's for dinner?"
An An intervened when he asked about what to eat for dinner.
Previously, because Jiang Xilin and Abel Vera had been saying things that she didn't understand at all, she was "looking at brother Xilin in confusion and at her mother in confusion" throughout the whole process, and she became completely ignorant.
What kind of sound should the little transparent one make?
Therefore, when she heard the extremely familiar word "dinner" in Jiangxi Lin dialect, she immediately started shouting.
And her blustering questioning voice also successfully achieved its purpose of attracting Jiang Xilin and Abel Vera.
Both of them took the initiative to stop the discussion about "purchasing on behalf of others" and focused their attention on Abel An'an.
"Then what do you want to eat?"
“Tomato lamb chop noodles.”
"I happened to buy some goat chops today."
“Then tomato and lamb chop noodles.”
Jiangxi Lin is very accommodating to little girls, and this may be mixed with the feelings of an "old father".
…
…
The dinner was still done by Jiang Xilin and Abel Vera.
Naturally, it was Jiang Xilin who learned how to make ramen. Although his cooking skills were calm, he was still better than Vera, who couldn't even make gestures.
The tomato lamb chops were left to Vera to finish.
As for An An, because she was always wandering around in the kitchen and couldn't control her mouth, she would give Vera some immature "opinions" from time to time, which caused Vera to "go crazy" and drive her to the study.
Went reading a book.
And they are not allowed to come out until meal time.
What a poor baby!
…
Dinner was soon ready, and Jiang Xilin went upstairs in person to bring An An out.
During dinner, the three of them chatted without a word.
We talked from before the Ice Yuan to after the Ice Yuan, from the legend of heroes to the history of the royal capital, and from history to Vera's childhood, her late father and Wulfk who traveled far away.
Then, the letter Wofk sent today was naturally mentioned.
The letter was just an ordinary letter, and the content was all about what he had experienced along the way with his older maid Tracy. Some of the descriptions of the folk customs in other places attracted Jiangxi Lin.
After dinner, Jiang Xilin and Abel Vera cleaned up the kitchen together, and then used the fireplace to boil a pot of hot water. After the three of them soaked in hot water together in the living room, they each returned to the bathroom on the second floor.
Wash.
…
In the study room on the second floor, Jiang Xilin opened the door and walked in after brushing his teeth.
Vera, who had finished washing up first, was sitting on the sofa in the middle of the bookshelf, leaning lazily on the armrest of the sofa, holding a magazine called "Ymir Scholar Express" in her hand.
Jiangxi Lin specially subscribed to this magazine after he was promoted to junior arcanist. He also subscribed to "Science Circle" and "Mechanical Weekly".
With the qualification of a junior arcanist, the monthly subscription fee for three academic magazines is only 1 gold shield, which is still affordable for Jiangxi Lin, whose salary has increased to 10 gold shields.
Moreover, if you invest part of your monthly salary in yourself, you won’t lose money no matter what.
Hearing the sound from the door, Vera raised her head and glanced at Jiang Xilin, shaking the magazine in her hand with a somewhat surprised tone,
"So you have knowledge related to arcane magic formations?"
She had always known that Jiang Xilin should be an extraordinary person who had mastered some occult knowledge, but she did not expect that what he mastered was the arcane magic circle, which was the least favored in the legend.
"yes!"
With a smile on his face, Jiang Xilin walked to Abel Vera and squeezed her to sit down.
This is nothing to hide and nothing to be proud of.
However, what Jiang Xilin didn't quite understand was how she was sure that her main focus was on arcane magic formations rather than arcane magic formulas?
Vera rolled her eyes speechlessly:
"In the entire book, you have folded just this one article about arcane magic formations."
After hearing this, Jiang Xilin couldn't help laughing.
"In fact, in my opinion, there are only four branches of knowledge that can really have a profound impact on this world, mechanical design and manufacturing, stargazing, alchemy, and arcane magic. As for theology and arcane magic,
, divination and prophecy, etc..."
Jiang Xilin did not say the next words, but shook his head. His attitude tendency was already very obvious.
Abel Vera was confused. What Jiang Xilin said seemed to be different from what she understood.
Although she has not had much contact with occultism, she still has some knowledge about the field of occultism.
There is no doubt that as far as she knows, the best prospects and money paths are definitely arcane magic and theology.
After all, no matter in which era, the pursuit of individual strength is imprinted in the bones of human beings and is an eternal human nature.
The second is mechanical manufacturing and design.
After all, most of the world's productivity relies on mechanical creations powered by coal and steam.
It can be said that in this world that has been frozen for more than three hundred years, without these mechanical creations, the number of civilians and the size of the city would have shrunk by at least two-thirds.
As for astrology and alchemy, one is calculating dates and calibrating time, and the other is creating new materials.
On the contrary, arcane magic circle science is recognized as the most useless subject. Apart from helping to test new materials, it has almost no other uses. It is even more useless than divination, which was born out of astrology.
After all, those who learn divination can also open a divination parlor to "cheat" money.
Although she didn't quite understand why Jiang Xilin said something that was contrary to mainstream understanding, Abel Vera didn't intend to pursue the question.
Regardless of whether Jiang Xilin takes the path of learning arcane magic formations or learning arcane magic formulas, there is one constant premise: he is Jiang Xi Lin.
He is Jiangxi Lin, that's enough.
"Do you want to write to your friend in Dongting City?"
"Write, just write."
Jiang Xilin was stunned for a moment by Vera's sudden change of subject, but he quickly came to his senses.
