MTL - Into Unscientific-Chapter 10 a sketch

  Chapter 10 A sketch

  In the house.

   After explaining many matters, Mavericks clapped his hands casually:

   "Okay, all that needs to be said has been said, you can get out of bed and walk around, and I will also introduce you to the layout of the manor."

  Xu Yun already had this intention in his heart, so he immediately pushed forward:

   "Then I will trouble you."

   Maverick nodded, walked to the cabinet next to the bed, bent down and fiddled a few times.

   After getting up, he flicked his right hand lightly.

  With a click, a pair of shoes and socks were thrown in front of Xu Yun.

   These are a pair of old shoes. The flanks and back are made of gray sackcloth, with some black spots.

  The face facing the wind in front of the head is a piece of leather with obvious wear on the surface.

   Judging from the current era background, the leather material should be buckskin.

   Then Maverick pointed to the shoes and said:

   "These are the brogues I wore in high school, they should be about the same shape as yours.

  Remember, don’t wear these shoes out of the manor. If you want to go out, you must tell me in advance, and I will bring you another pair of shoes. "

  Xu Yun still nodded cooperatively—not that he had been successfully PUA, but because he knew very well that what Newton said was not restricting his freedom of action.

   There is only one reason why Xiaoniu asked himself to go out to change shoes:

  Britain or Europe these days, really go out to see shit

  Britain’s emphasis on public health did not really begin until after the plague ended, and it was not until around 1690 that it became popular at the county and town level.

  At present, the whole of Europe's understanding of infectious diseases such as plague is still only in the isolation stage-the UK is even considered as the first echelon. The first case in Europe that was arrested for escaping from the disease area occurred in the UK.

  The unlucky and lucky guy was named Henry Rose, and it happened in the parish of St. Bartholomew in 1604, which is sixty years ago.

  Strictly speaking, this is a process of completing cognition, and there is nothing to criticize or despise.

  The peak period of European excrement and urine culture was around the 12th century AD, when all kinds of show operations came out.

  For example, the famous high-heeled shoes were invented to prevent Ollie from getting them.

Of course.

  Completing the cognition is to supplement the cognition. It is also a fact that feces and urine in the public areas of the UK still exist.

  Especially in a place like Lincolnshire where there are a lot of cattle and sheep, it smells like going out.

  This is also the reason why Newton thought Xu Yun was extravagant at first—he wouldn’t even be able to afford a house in exchange for warm boots made of this material, but Xu Yun was lucky enough to wear them outside for a long time.

  If it wasn't for the small money in the future, the Mavericks should stop saying 'profligate' at this time.

Xu Yun didn't know that he had been labeled as a prodigal and a big dog by his classmate Xiao Niu. At this time, he was rolling off the bed and picked up a tube sock—God, after ten chapters, our protagonist finally got off the bed. bed, tears!

  Xu Yun put on the tube socks awkwardly, glanced at the big toe protruding from the hole in the tube socks, rolled his eyes silently, and picked up the brogue shoes on the ground.

  Broque shoes, also known as Baroque shoes, originated from the work shoes worn by the Scots and Irish when they worked in the highlands in the 16th century. They are practical and wear-resistant.

   This kind of shoes was relatively popular in the seventeenth century, and its status was lower than that of Oxford shoes and Derby shoes. It was regarded as standard equipment for students in some middle schools.

  But wait until the 20th century, Brogue shoes will be excavated from the countryside by the Duke of Windsor, and then gradually become a symbol of gentlemen.

  Newton’s pair of brogues are relatively intact, and with Newton’s tube socks that have a few holes, they won’t be particularly uncomfortable to wear.

  Of course, forget about the image:

  The aesthetics of the whole of Britain these days are a bit gimmicky. Men in the Victorian period had to wear skirts, and the clothes were so fat that they looked ghostly.

  Looking at it from the perspective of the 21st century, it is almost a repressive-level door **** dress that hangs on the door to ward off evil spirits and hangs on the bedside for contraception.

   Fortunately, at this time, acquaintances could not see him in his attire, so after putting on his shoes, Xu Yun calmly followed Newton out of the bedroom.

   As Newton said earlier.

  Perhaps because the house was originally a garden house, the overall area of ​​the house is not large, and it can even be said to be a bit narrow.

  The bedroom is connected to a small room of about 20 square meters. Taking the bedroom door as the origin, there is a small window on the left side of the room, and a desk is placed in front of the window.

  Beside the desk stood a quaint little bookcase, filled with a pile of books.

   On the right side of the room is a relatively thick door, and an old blackened blanket is placed at the entrance.

   Obviously, this is the exit of the whole room.

  If the land occupied by the external fence is not counted, the building area of ​​the whole house is just over 60 square meters. This kind of specification is relatively rare in Europe, whether it is the 17th century or the 21st century.

Converted to the nature of housing in the local area, it is almost the same as a family of four living in a 25-square-meter house in Shanghai, which is so crowded that people can’t even live in a dream-renovated house—of course, if a certain designer named Tao Knife, it is estimated that I will not be able to live in it after the renovation, and I will have to ask you for a decoration fee of 1.3 million.

  Then Mavericks brought Xu Yun to the window, pointed out the window and said:

   "Fat fish, as you can see, the fruit trees in the manor outside the window belong to my family.

  In addition, about a thousand feet west from the fence is the village road of Woolsthorpe, and further north is a well. Near the well, you can see a windmill built more than 60 years ago.

   As for the direction of Lincolnshire, I don’t need to say more, that’s where you escaped from. "

  Xu Yun nodded silently upon hearing this.

  Although he is an "apple" that fell from the sky, he doesn't know where Lincolnshire is, but right now he doesn't have the idea or need to go to Lincolnshire, so there is no need to go to it in vain.

   Then Newton withdrew his gaze from the window, pointed to the desk and bookcase and said:

   "As for this place. This is where I study and work. Without my permission, you are not allowed to touch any piece of paper—even if the ink is spilled and the paper is stained."

  Compared to the casual introduction of the landmarks outside the window, Newton was much more serious when he talked about the desk.

  His tone reminded Xu Yun of a friend of his who was a two-thorn newt. Every time he went to his house to play, he also treated the rows of figurines with the same attitude.

  But soon, Xu Yun's attention shifted to the desk.

   Or to be precise, on several manuscripts on the desk.

  One of the manuscripts contains two pages of stick figures, which are simple and scribbled:

   On the left side of the first page is a tree, and a stickman stands under the tree.

  The scene on the second page is almost the same as the first one, the difference is that in this scene, another stickman fell from the tree.

   And the falling stickman was marked with a circle with a heavy pen, with a pair of arrows pointing up and down on the side of the circle, and .

   A question mark.

   Seeing this situation, Xu Yun's eyes lit up immediately.

Note:

   Some readers said that the pace of this book is slow. How should I put it, I have never been a fast shooter. Ahem, a fast-paced writer.

  My personal writing habit is to popularize science while writing. The pace is slow but it won’t make everyone feel very watery—to be a little conceited, I am an author who likes to export knowledge to readers.

   "I'm going to check this and it turns out to be true." - This kind of comment is very fulfilling for me.

  Another person asked if this is Zhu Tianwen, and my introduction made it very clear:

The protagonist does not have superpowers, so this book will also have a reality line. This is a special black technology text, but the protagonist has to rely on his own efforts to obtain everything. The type of foil.

   Repeat it again, it is a real science and technology text, a real science and technology text, a real science and technology text! !

   But the rhythm will be very slow, very slow, very slow! !

   A classmate pointed out that 1665 was the 17th century, not the 16th century. After thinking about it, it is true.

   There is a difference of 100 million pips in the historical results, please forgive me, it has been revised.
