Chapter 14 Even NPCs cannot be illiterate!

Tianyu's high-pitched voice startled Zhu Chongba.
Zhu Chongba was startled.
He asked Tianyu carefully:

"Well, God of Land, we in the lower world use this kind of vulgar yellow and white stuff. It may be different in our heavenly world, but this is the best thing in our lower world."

Tianyu's mouth twitched twice.
He directly took out the set of silver ingots that seemed useless from the game backpack and dumped them all in front of him with a clatter.
Zhu Chongba and Zhu Chongliu both widened their eyes, stared greedily at the small pile of new mountains, and took a breath.

Is this the legendary Midas Touch that turns stone into gold? No, creating silver out of thin air?

The third sister blinked and saw Tianyu's magic that could instantly create a pile of silver, and a look of admiration flashed in her eyes.

Zhu Chongba knelt on the ground with a thud and prostrated himself, shouting:

"Thank you for the reward, God of Land!"

As he shouted, he pulled his second brother next to him.

Zhu Chongliu finally reacted and suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed madly.

Damn, I can make hundreds of taels of silver just by buying a few sheep?

This wave of huge profit!

Tianyu stretched out his hand, and said with a look of MMP on his face, stuttering a little:
"Oh, no, I'll just take it out. No, fuck, forget it, I'll give it to you."

He really had no intention of giving all this money to Zhu Chongba.
This was the little bit of silver he had saved up after three days of digging, but it was stored in groups of 3 in his game backpack, and he didn't know how to take them apart and throw them away yet.

Looking at Zhu Chongba and Zhu Chongliu who kept pulling at his arms,
Tianyu finally confirmed that even if this world is a game world, it is also a real world with a complete worldview.

Just like the Three-Body game made by the Three-Body people, I can no longer treat these NPCs as those pixelated villagers in the game who can’t do anything even with three sticks.

They have their own culture, economy, background, and even social clusters. If you want to live comfortably in this world, you need to communicate with them as living people like yourself.

Tianyu rolled his eyes at Zhu Chongba, who had a simple face but a cunning smile.

He took out a drawing board from his gaming backpack and started writing on it.

"Two sheep, two pigs, various vegetables, some seeds of cash crops, two chickens, dyes... some too, salt, MSG, soy sauce... do you have soy sauce? Forget it, just give me some seasonings."

Tianyu wrote and drew on the blackboard, and soon the entire board was filled up.

He handed the drawing board to Zhu Chongba and said:
"Just buy these this time, and I'll deal with the rest when I remember."

Since he knew that silver was hard currency, he naturally would not be polite to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Since you took more than 600 taels of silver from me, you must work like a slave for me!

Zhu Chongba looked at the densely packed handwriting on the drawing board and twisted his head for a long time.
Tianyu looked at Zhu Chongba with an unhappy expression.
I gave you so much money, and I asked you to buy something but you look so reluctant?

Zhu Chongba seemed to have sensed Tianyu's misunderstanding. He fell to his knees and cried loudly:

"Lord of the Land, I, I can't read!"

Although I went to school for a few days, that was when I was a kid.

Moreover, the simplified Chinese characters written by Tianyu are completely different from what I learned. Although they look a bit similar, I really don’t recognize a single character.

Tianyu stood there in shock.
He thought of the countless expressions of Zhu Yuanzhang making when he refused, but he didn't expect that it was because this guy couldn't read.

Tianyu looked at Zhu Chongliu with a pained look on his face. Seeing this, Zhu Chongliu shook his head repeatedly to indicate that he didn't know him either.

The corners of Tianyu's mouth twitched twice, and he squinted his eyes and picked up most of the silver ingots on the ground.

Looking at the only 40 taels of silver left, Zhu Chongba and Zhu Chongliu were so heartbroken that they were about to have cramps.

Now only a fraction is left. It's terrible to be uneducated.

In the future, we will make sure our children study hard and become educated people, so that they won’t be unable to handle the huge wealth like us.

At this time, Tianyu squatted down and weighed the remaining silver ingot in his hand.
He smiled and asked the Zhu brothers, "Do you want some silver?"

Zhu Chongba and Zhu Chongliu nodded repeatedly, and then shook their heads frantically.

He had already displeased the gods, so how could he dare to ask for money? His nodding before was just a subconscious action.

Tianyu smiled like a devil when he saw this, and placed four ingots of silver in front of the two men and said viciously:
"If you want money, then study hard and make progress every day! Starting from tomorrow, you will come here every three days to learn Chinese, math, English, history, geography, biology and politics for me! Damn it, I have been tortured by knowledge for 3 years, but I have to come to mine. Why can you illiterate people take money so easily!"

Tianyu grinned and said to the Zhu brothers with gritted teeth:

"I tell you! Knowledge changes destiny! Studying is the only way to achieve class transition! It is your honor to have an outstanding college student like me, who was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze, teach you, a bunch of country bumpkins from poor mountain villages!"

"Damn it, even NPCs can't be illiterate! Chao! You must build computers and the Internet for me before I die!"

Tianyu waved his fist in anger and said angrily,
It seemed as if he was venting his anger that he was a college student who had finally made it, but was sent to a miserable world without even a mobile phone or internet to mine minerals by a pirated game.

God knows how much anxiety I have accumulated during this period because of the death penalty and the days without mobile phones and the Internet. Electronic addiction is no joke.

In modern society, we can’t live without mobile phones and the Internet. Isn’t it because of mobile phones, the Internet and short videos that Tianyu can stay at home typing for two and a half years?

Now Tianyu is living the life of a caveman in this shabby place without even a bed. He doesn't even have the right to sleep. He doesn't even know how much negative emotions he has accumulated in his heart.

Now, because of the small factor that Zhu Yuanzhang was illiterate, his negative emotions completely erupted.

Zhu Chongba and his brother were frightened by the eruption of Tianyu and turned pale.
The two thought they had angered the gods, and they kowtowed and begged for mercy:
"Don't blame the God of Land! Don't blame the God of Land! Let's come here every day, come every day, study hard, and make progress every day."

Tianyu looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was frightened, and the resentment in his heart finally dissipated a lot.

This generation gap that seemed like it was between two different eras made him feel a little bored.

"Stand up, don't kneel again. You must remember that everyone is equal. How does the saying go? Are there any different kinds of kings, princes, generals, and ministers? They all have two noses, two eyes, and one mouth. No one is nobler than anyone else. The same goes for immortals. Have you heard that my life is my own and my life is mine? Have you heard that you should not despise the young because they are poor?"

"People should have ambitions. I see that you are so poor and you are probably still in the primitive society. Come, don't be afraid. From now on, I will take you into the palace of knowledge. You are the seeds of the fire of civilization and the public servants serving the people."

When Zhu Chongba and Zhu Chongliu heard such outrageous words, they suddenly collapsed to the ground.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was just 17 years old. He had not yet become a monk in Huangjue Temple, nor had he been sent to the poorest places such as Huaixi and Henan to beg for food.

The question of whether kings, princes, generals and ministers were born with different species was simply unimaginable for a native farmer like him.

However, the younger third sister suddenly muttered:
"Well, shouldn't it be one nose, two eyes and one mouth? How come it has two noses?"

Tianyu, Zhu Chongba, Zhu Chongliu: "..."
