Reading as a god

Chapter 29 New Opening Method of System Ship!

"By the way, Lin Yuan, where is your sister?" Zhang Shan suddenly realized that Lin Yuan was nowhere to be found.
"I don't know. I saw my sister driving away just now. I thought you two had a conflict!"

Zhang Shan thought to himself, what contradictions can we have?
……

It took Lin Jing Shi Shiran to come over, looking at Zhang Shan's strange eyes, Lin Jing looked arrogant:
"Hey~, for you."

"what?"

Zhang Shan was extremely curious, but seeing the thing contained in an ancient box, it shouldn't be something vulgar, so she didn't refuse.

Zhang Shan opened the box, but didn't see anything specific, but first smelled a faint scent of sandalwood.

The contents of the box were wrapped in layers of yellow silk, and Zhang Shan opened the layers of wrapping, and suddenly found an ancient version of "Tao Te Ching" and an ancient version of "Zhuangzi".

Lin Yuan became restless when he saw it: "Sister, aren't these two Song editions? I asked my dad for them and he didn't give them to me. You actually stole my dad's books and gave them away!"

Zhang Shan knows Song edition books, that is, books published and printed in the Song Dynasty.

The prosperity of engraving and printing industry in the Song Dynasty created conditions for the widespread circulation and popularization of books.Song edition books, which are in the position of connecting the past and the future, present a unique philological value because of their exquisite engraving and rare circulation.In connection with this, most people in the world value Song edition books.

Zhang Shan was also shocked by the expensiveness of this gift. There is a saying in the bibliophile circle that there is a kind of book that is very valuable.One page can be exchanged for one tael of gold.This is the Song edition book known as the most expensive book in the world.

Lin Jing blushed:

"Borrowing books can't be considered stealing... Borrowing books!... Can it be considered stealing when it comes to scholars?"

"I just saw that Shanzi liked "Tao Te Ching" very much, so I showed it to Shanzi."

"By the way, Lin Yuan, once in high school you wanted to secretly sell our dad's car for money. It seems that I lent you the money. I didn't tell my dad at the time, just right."

"I..." Lin Yuan, who was suddenly turned back by Lin Jing, faltered and hawed all of a sudden.

Zhang Shan never thought that Lin Yuan still had this dark history, so she couldn't help laughing at that time.

……

Slowly Zhang Shan's attention was attracted by the "Tao Te Ching" in his hand.

Zhang Shan was holding a treasure like a treasure, without daring to breathe, carefully opened the book, and suddenly saw:

"The Tao can be the Tao, but it is not the eternal Tao. The name can be the name, but it is not the eternal name. Nothing, it is called the beginning of heaven and earth. Being, it is called the mother of all things. Therefore, there is always nothing, and if you want to see its beauty. If you always have, you want to see its essence. These two They come from the same place but have different names, and they are called the same as Xuan. Xuan is also Xuan, the gate of all mysteries.”

Zhang Shan remembers that in the previous editions, it was written that "Tao can be said, it is very Tao. The name can be named, it is very famous"

Presumably it should be due to the different versions, and Zhang Shan didn't pay too much attention to these small details.

Although it is a Song edition book, the reading habit is "from top to bottom, from right to left". Although the font is in traditional Chinese characters, it is not difficult to read Zhang Shan, who almost memorizes the Tao Te Ching backwards.

Zhang Shan quickly solved the reading trouble caused by the difference between ancient books and today's printed books, and Zhang Shan became more and more immersed in the books.

Reading a book that spans thousands of years gives Zhang Shan the feeling that it hits the soul directly, like talking to the ancients.

The "Tao Te Ching" was probably born in 485 BC. It took about 500 years to be engraved again in the Song Dynasty, and it took nearly 1000 years to pass to Zhang Shan several times.

Zhang Shan felt that he was running a relay race across time and space.This relay race also has a special name called - cultural inheritance!

Look at that sentence:
"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, they regard all things as straw dogs. Sages are not benevolent, and regard the common people as straw dogs. Between heaven and earth, is it still like a dog?"

"The highest good is like water. Water is good for all things without fighting, and it is the evil of everyone, so it is more than Tao."

"The five colors make you blind, the five tones make you deaf, the five flavors make you happy, and galloping and hunting make you mad."

Through ancient books, Zhang Shan seems to have returned to the age when the material culture was extremely underdeveloped. At that time, people could produce such a level of spiritually condensed products, and Zhang Shan felt indescribably shocked!

Although he is very familiar with the "Tao Te Ching", Zhang Shan still reads it at the original speed every time, and reads it in about an hour.

Originally, Lin Yuan and Lin Jing were dumbfounded enough to watch Zhang Shan read as if no one was around, but after watching Zhang Shan read it once, he shook his head and started reading from the beginning.

……

Unconsciously, the sun has slowly set.

Zhang Shan couldn't help but put it back in the box after reading the "Tao Te Ching" for the sixth time.

Zhang Shan couldn't believe it when she saw the system prompt:
"The host can earn RMB 1 for every minute of reading"

"The host studied for 6 hour in total, accumulatively harvested RMB 21600, and accumulatively gained experience 21600"

"The current system level is level 6, and the experience required to upgrade is 83/300"

"The book the host read this time was judged to be the best book by the system. Congratulations to the host for triggering the harvested RMB crit. The crit coefficient is 5"

"During the RMB crit, the host gains an additional 21600×5=108000 RMB."

"In addition, the host has completed a money crit for the first time, and the system will give the host a single 1000 million yuan as a career reserve fund. The source is clean and you can use it with confidence."

"At present, the completion progress of the host's achievement of reading a hundred times is 8/100, involving a total of 27600 experience points"

Zhang Shan couldn't help being ecstatic, Zhang Shan didn't care as much about 1000 million or not as before.

But seeing that the critical strike on harvesting money can be achieved, Zhang Shan can't help but feel that he has unlocked a new posture of the system.

Directly harvested the system's "ship new" opening method.

Zhang Shan couldn't help but think in his mind that only ancient books can bring about the critical strike of gaining money?
Followed by the system prompt:

"The system generally considers that books that are top-grade and have a history of more than 1000 years are top-quality books, which can achieve an additional five times the critical strike of normal money harvesting (repeatable stimulation);

Other types of ancient books are top-grade books, which can achieve an additional three times the crit of the normal harvest of money (up to five times). "

"In addition, in the following situations, although the host cannot obtain the extra critical strike of money, the host can gain a certain degree of money increase when reading for the first time:

(1) When the host reads the original foreign language books.

Bibliography: "Island", "Gone with the wind", "How to Read a Book", etc.

[Increase between 30% and 100%]

(2) When the host reads pure philosophy books.

Reference titles: "Being and Nothingness", "Critique of Pure Reason", "Being and Time", etc.

[Increase between 50% and 100%]

(3) When the host reads other highly specialized interdisciplinary books.

Bibliography: "Internal Medicine", "Gynecology", "Postpartum Care of Sows", "Practical Maintenance Techniques for Tractors", etc.

[Increase between 150% and 250%]

In particular, the increase can be superimposed, and the host can make reasonable use of this hint"

Zhang Shan has a big head, can the increase be superimposed?

So want to read "Practical Maintenance Techniques for Tractors" in Russian?

Or do you want to read the original English version of "Postpartum Care of Sows"?
Zhang Shan couldn't help thinking, so the best choice is to keep top-grade books that are more than 1000 years old.
