Chapter 770



ꨡ[6Ba~oA}0: Chapter 0770: Reincarnation (Seeking Subscriptions) Chapter 770: Chapter 0770: Reincarnation (Seeking Subscriptions) Early morning.

The sunlight was gently sprinkling on the streets.

Su Lu was taking a leisurely stroll, seeing a young couple approaching him from the opposite side.

“Good day, Mister Turing!”

Upon seeing Su Lu, they were the first to greet him.

“Congratulations, Heraclitus, your wife is about to give birth, isn’t she?”

Su Lu replied with a smile as they passed each other.

After his morning stroll, he returned to his mansion, where his female slave Martha immediately served today’s food.

The main course was a kind of wheat bread, complemented with olive oil and grape wine, and a small plate of fine salt — at this time, this was the food of the upper class.

...

Su Lu nonchalantly took a few bites, and ordered, “Bring Bi Di and Hamilton to me.”

Hamilton was another male slave he had bought, who could read and calculate, and was expensive.

Bi Di had been working under him since witness Su Lu’s grandeur.

Martha left, and not long after, Bi Di and Hamilton walked in together: “Good day, Sir!”

“Hmm, let’s go and check out my workshop…”

Su Lu wiped his mouth, stood up, and led the two to a paper-making workshop in the city.

As soon as they stepped in, they saw several pools where large amounts of scrap cloth and plant skins were soaked.

“The merchants outside the city are very willing to sell us limestone, and they are willing to provide it in large quantities.”

Bi Di reported beside him.

Su Lu went into the workshop and saw that a large amount of fiber, which had been initially separated, had been turned into pulp, filtered, scooped out, dried in the sun or air-dried, and turned into sheets of paper in various shades of white.

He casually picked up a sheet and found that because the process was simple, the paper was somewhat coarse and didn’t achieve the ‘white as snow’ standard, but it was fit enough for writing.

“What about the market?” Su Lu asked.

“As per your instructions, Master, the price is ten sheets for an iron shell, cheaper than cloth and animal skins, and more convenient than clay slabs.

Some people have already bought some, and the response has been good…” Hamilton replied.

“Hmm…continue…” Su Lu waved his hand.

To outsiders, he was a merchant and a scholar named Turing.

Since he had decided to play this role well, he naturally needed to do some real things.

Moreover, bringing out the paper-making technique is also for the better development of civilization.

Paper is the best medium for knowledge, at least until a more advanced storage medium is developed.

As for secrecy and profit, to be honest, Su Lu didn’t care at all.

After inspecting the workshop and answering a few questions from Bi Di and Hamilton, Su Lu returned to his house.

Next to him lived the family of Heraclitus.

Heraclitus was a warrior of the city-state.

He used to follow the city lord to attack wild beasts and fight large groups of savages out in the wilderness; It was dangerous, but the returns were rich.

Moreover, when there were no wars, he was very idle.

In Su Lu’s eyes, it was quite similar to the citizens of ancient Athens.

In addition to Heraclitus’s pregnant wife, he and his wife had two daughters.

They were only 13 or 14 years old, but they were already capable of doing some housework.

At this time, as the threat of the wilderness gradually diminished, the soldier class of the city-state had fewer and fewer opportunities to engage in warfare, they lost opportunities to get rich, and with the birth of the third child, Heraclitus’s family was beginning to fall into poverty — at least that was what Su Lu observed.

That night.

A harsh woman’s scream suddenly broke the silence of the night.

“It’s Heraclitus…His child is about to be born.” Su Lu got up, pushed open the window and looked towards Heraclitus’s home.

The head of the family was pacing anxiously outside the house, the children were in a state of disorder, only knowing to cry, and only an old nanny was bustling inside.

“Survival and reproduction, the two fundamental desires of life…” Su Lu quietly looked at this scene, sighing deeply.

In his sight, the moon in the sky suddenly shone bright and the hazy mist accumulated light towards the small house next door.

But from an outside perspective, there was still nothing out of the ordinary.

“What reincarnation of gods and the incarnation of great powers…if I, the creator, do not say anything…or to say…if I do not set this up, there won’t be any signs.”

Su Lu wiggled his finger.

From outside the world, an illusory meteor emerged, falling straight down, smashing into the small house next door.

This was a ‘sign’ that only he could see.

The very next moment.

“Waa!

Waa!”

A clear cry of a newborn baby echoed.

Su Lu saw the old nanny open the door and handed Heraclitus a newborn baby with the umbilical cord just cut off.

Heraclitus’s eyes were red.

He lifted the baby high above his head, his voice choked up but loud: “In the name of Heraclitus of Moriqi…

he is my son!

His name is Jupiter!”

“Jupiter…welcome to this world!

My world!”

Su Lu watched this scene with a smile on his face.

The next day, he had Martha deliver a lamb to the neighboring house as a gift for the newborn.

For any family, this was a significant gift.

As a result, Heraclitus immediately came to thank him.

“Mr.

Turing, we are really grateful…If Spahn hadn’t just given birth, she and the child would have come to thank you in person.” Heraclitus sincerely said.

“Seeing a new life always brings me joy…perhaps this also indicates that my business will be prosperous…” Su Lu replied with a smile.

“We are so thankful…” Heraclitus was a simple man, who could only repeat his words.

At this time, his eyes went to Su Lu’s study room and a surprised look appeared on his face: “What is this…”@@novelbin@@

Su Lu had partitioned a room on the second floor.

Inside the room was a wooden shelf filled with all kinds of books.

Loads of clay tablets piled on the bottom shelf like a thick stack of bricks, and on the top shelf, there were stacks of animal skin papers, some of the books had furry hairs on the cover.

Besides, in the corners and on the walls, there were a few artworks hanging with different style.

Heraclitus was taken aback.

“I am a scholar who likes to read and collect books in his spare time.

Being a businessman is just my hobby and side job…” Su Lu smiled: “Here are my collections, historical texts since the establishment of the Kingdom of Hormone, to the geography and their scripts of the northern Beastmen Kingdom and even the sea tribe documents that exist in the ancient scholarly studies…Even the art of a much older great race, their art pieces are quite good…”

Heraclitus wasn’t able to utter a word, his shallow knowledge didn’t include anything about the events before the Kingdom of Hormone.

All he knew was that, just based on these books, Turing was an accomplished scholar.

After bidding goodbye, he returned home and kissed Jupiter in the cradle.

“Did you express your gratitude to Turing?

” His wife asked from the bed.

“Yes…

and…

I have an idea.”

Heraclitus suddenly said, “There are fewer and fewer wars outside the city-state…

I want Jupiter to learn word and knowledge..

he needs a good teacher …”
