Chapter 259 Punctuation and Arabic Numerals
When Xue Rengui heard the grades reported by Zhao Han, Xue Rengui clenched his fists with his nails bleeding into his flesh. Xue Rengui didn't expect his grades to be so poor.

In fact, it's not because of Xue Rengui's poor skills, but that bows and arrows are different from firearms. How could Xue Rengui achieve good results with bows and arrows?
Xue Rengui stood beside him without saying a word, Zhao Han asked the next round to start shooting, and when all 30 people finished shooting, Zhao Han stood in front of them and said: "Your results are not bad today, after all, it is the first time to learn how to shoot. You guys are practicing hard, Xue Rengui will follow me."

Zhao Han also found Xue Rengui's problem and wanted to talk to him alone. Xue Rengui followed Zhao Han to an open space. Before Zhao Han could speak, Xue Rengui said, "Young Master, please punish me. Rengui has let you down."

Zhao Han found that Xue Rengui was in a particularly depressed mood, and his eyes were red, and tears were about to flow down.

Zhao Han patted Xue Rengui on the shoulder and said: "The reason why your grades are so poor is not that your skills are not good, but that you have a wrong shooting method. You can't use a bow and arrow to use an assault rifle. Next, I will personally guide you. , you must remember the essentials, you know?"

Xue Rengui nodded, and began to practice shooting according to the method Zhao Han said. Zhao Han only taught Xue Rengui for a while, and Xue Rengui mastered the essentials of shooting. of.

Zhao Han walked up to Xue Rengui and patted him on the shoulder and said: "According to your current skills, you can be their coach. It seems that your talent is not bad. Now that you have mastered the essentials, now you can teach others how to shoot. Bar."

Xue Rengui nodded excitedly and said, "Thank you, young master, I will teach them how to practice shooting now."

Zhao Han asked him to go back, and he felt bored so he wandered around. When Zhao Han came to the edge of the field, he found many people walking towards his field with red bricks.

Zhao Han walked up to him and asked, "What are you doing?"

An old man came out with a smile and said, "Xiaohan, are you here? Isn't this a greenhouse under construction? After the greenhouse is built this month, the vegetables in the greenhouse will be raw and cooked in winter, so that we don't have to eat only grain in winter. Xiaohan, you don’t know, originally I thought that planting vegetables this winter was pure nonsense, but we knew it was made by you, Xiaohan, so we all believed in you, so we bought this greenhouse with money.”

"Did you buy both the stove and the coal? It's not enough to just cover the greenhouse. The temperature in the greenhouse must be guaranteed, otherwise the vegetables will not grow well." Zhao Han asked.

The old man said with a smile: "I've bought everything, keep it at home, you have to know that the housekeeper Ma Yi has arranged for someone to guide us, Xiaohan, don't worry."

"That's good, old man, let me help you with work." Zhao Han said.

The old man hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't, Xiaohan, you are different from before. You are now a Jiedushi. You are not doing these jobs. You can just walk around. You don't need to work here. Besides, we are human beings. That's enough."

Zhao Han had no choice but to look elsewhere. Zhao Han found that almost every household was building greenhouses. Zhao Han came to the field of Sanzhuzi's house and found that the greenhouses of Sanzhuzi's house had been built. Zhao Han walked in and saw Sanzhuzi leading people. Vegetable seeds are already being planted.

Zhao Han said to Sanzhuzi: "Uncle Zhuzi, your family is fast enough. Others are still building greenhouses, but your family is already planting. The speed is fast enough."

San Zhuzi said with a smile: "You and I, Uncle Zhang, were the first batch of people to buy greenhouses, and they were the second batch to buy them. They must not be as fast as us. No way, I can plant seeds today. The weather is not so good now I can’t use the stove, but I don’t know how to read the thermometer, because I’m afraid that the vegetables will be frozen in winter.”

Only then did Zhao Han discover that there were Arabic numerals on the thermometer, which the people in Datang must not recognize, so Zhao Han had no choice but to enter the system and ask Xiaolan if he could change the Arabic numerals on the thermometer into Chinese characters.

Zhao Han entered the system and said to Xiaolan: "Xiaolan, can the Arabic numerals on this thermometer be changed into Chinese characters? People in Tang Dynasty don't know Arabic numerals. It's very troublesome. I haven't popularized Arabic numerals either."

Little Lazy replied: "You still say I'm lazy all day long. You see, you haven't popularized Arabic numerals after traveling for so long. The Arabic numerals on the thermometer can be changed, but the exchange price needs to be raised. In the future, other items can be changed to Arabic numerals." Into Chinese characters, the system will not change until you popularize Arabic numerals, do you agree with the host?"

Zhao Han thought that he wanted to popularize Arabic numerals as soon as possible, otherwise it would be very troublesome, Zhao Han said to Xiaolan: "Okay, why don't you change it, I agree, I will popularize Arabic numerals as soon as possible."

Zhao Han took out the modified thermometer and handed it to Sanzhuzi, saying, "Uncle Zhuzi, this is a man's thermometer, can Uncle Zhuzi understand it? I'll replace it for you right now."

Sanzhuzi said: "Now I can understand it, thank you Xiaohan, you are really promising, Uncle Zhuzi didn't misread you, haha."

Zhao Han smiled and said, "Haha, I'm just lucky. Well, Uncle Zhuzi, you can do your work. I'll go back first."

"Okay, okay, I'm busy first, and try to plant the vegetable seeds today." San Zhuzi said.

Zhao Han walked out of the shed and walked to his residence. When he arrived at the residence, he found that there were many guards here, and there were also many officials here. Zhao Han wondered why Li Shimin came here?
Zhao Han walked up to Fang Xuanling and asked, "Why are you here? And I found that those great scholars are also here. What happened? Why didn't anyone tell me?"

Fang Xuanling said in a low voice: "Don't you know about this? Didn't your junior brother start teaching the third prince a few days ago? Your junior brother gave them a new method of sentence segmentation, which seems to be called punctuation marks, and also If there are any Arabic numerals, the third prince thinks that the punctuation marks and Arabic numerals are particularly useful, so the third prince reported this to His Majesty, and when His Majesty heard about such a thing, he quickly brought the great Confucian scholars from the court to ask your junior brother for advice."

"Oh." Zhao Han said: "So that's what happened? I wanted to popularize Arabic numerals just now, but I didn't expect Chen Yuan to have already started to act. It's okay, I don't have anything to do anyway, so I will go to work first." gone."

Fang Xuanling hurriedly pulled Zhao Han back and said, "It's nothing to do with you, you don't know that after your junior brother took out these punctuation marks and Arabic numerals, those great Confucian scholars in the court went crazy, and they all saw the benefits of this punctuation mark , Now everyone wants to revise the previous books, this is a good thing that will last forever, don’t you want to participate? This is a great political achievement."
