Chapter 608 The Taste of Knowledge, Sister Yu Knows
August 6, early morning.
Li Luo and his friends did not get up early and slept until half past six when they were woken up by the alarm clock.
When he brought Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng to the classroom, he found that his classmates were more nervous than he was.
However, the classmate's nervousness was more due to the upcoming college entrance examination and had nothing to do with the launch of his new book.
I stayed up until about 1 a.m. last night, and after publishing five chapters of my draft at exactly the right time in the early hours, the first order data exceeded 5,000 within just one hour.
When he got up and washed up in the morning, Li Luo took another look and found that the first order data had successfully exceeded 10,000.
It will no longer be a problem to break through the 20,000 threshold later.
So after arriving at school, Li Luo put this matter behind him and completely immersed himself in the atmosphere of reviewing for the college entrance examination.
Starting from today, Thursday, until Saturday, including Monday and Tuesday of next week, all senior high school classes at the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School have been suspended and converted to self-study classes.
The teachers in charge will attend classes according to the class schedule, answer candidates' daily questions, and fill in the gaps.
Li Luo already had everything ready in this regard, and there was really no area where he could continue to work hard to improve, so during self-study classes he would daydream and type in his mind.
When you get home at night, just type away.
However, just after the first English class in the morning and during the break before the next Chinese class, Zhu Yufei, who was sitting next to me in the aisle, suddenly opened his schoolbag and carefully took out a thing from it.
When Li Luo came back from the toilet, he caught a glimpse of this guy's actions and couldn't help but pause: "What are you doing?"
"My secret weapon." Zhu Yufei said mysteriously, and took out a palm-sized wooden statue in his hand, "This is a statue of Confucius."
After that, he placed the statue of Confucius on the table and bowed three times solemnly: "The next class is Chinese. I will ask him to come out and give me a buff."
Li Luo: “…”
"Then why don't you invite more people?" Zhang Guohuang, a classmate at the side, said speechlessly, "For physics, should we invite Newton or Einstein? For chemistry, should we invite Mendeleev or Marie Curie? What about English?"
"My Chinese score is a little low, the other ones don't need it." Zhu Yufei rolled his eyes at him, "Your English is not so good, you can look up who compiled the English dictionary, and then pay your respects to me."
"I don't think it's necessary." Zhang Guohuang took out his earphones, looked around, then opened his phone and played the English listening program he usually listened to. Then he placed the earphones on both sides of the ears of the Confucius statue, "You can learn English as a last-minute favor. Please bless me at the same time."
"Get out!" Upon seeing this, Zhu Yufei immediately pushed the guy away with a look of disgust.
"I suggest you make a statue of me." Li Luo looked at the two funny guys and couldn't help but teasing them, "There are too many people worshipping Confucius, so he may not have time to take care of you."
"Then why don't I make a statue of the top student in the grade and worship it?" Zhu Yufei complained.
"Because I will kill you." Li Luo squinted at him and smiled faintly, "Why don't you try?"
"Forget it then." Zhu Yufei shook his head repeatedly.
Ying Chanxi, who also went to the toilet but came back a little late, heard their conversation and immediately tried to suppress the corners of his mouth, curled his lips and whispered, "Childish."
Li Luo heard this.
Li Luo immediately turned around, raised his eyebrows and said, "Where is it childish?"
After that, he put his hands on Ying Chanxi's shoulders and shook him gently: "No. 1 in the grade, please bless me and wish me to win the top spot in the college entrance examination."
"You got the top prize, what did I get?" Ying Chanxi rolled his eyes at him.
"I'm just talking, are you serious about it?" Li Luo said with a smile.
Ying Chanxi snorted: "It was someone who said that if I got the top score in the exam and chose Qianjiang University, it would be big news."
"Old Kong is such a loose-lipped guy. How can he just say anything so casually?"
"Do you have any objections?" Kong Junxiang's voice came from behind Li Luo.
The next second, Li Luo felt someone patting his shoulder. He turned around and saw Kong Junxiang standing behind him, which scared him.
"Teacher Kong... I am the pride of the school, so you have to pay more attention to my mental health."
"You are guilty, otherwise why would you be scared?" Kong Junxiang laughed, then glanced at Zhang Guohuang, "Forget it this time, don't play around in class, there are only a few days left."
Zhang Guohuang smiled awkwardly and quickly stuffed the earphones and mobile phone in the drawer.
At this time, the class bell rang.
Kong Junxiang walked towards the podium.
Li Luo and Ying Chanxi returned to their seats and prepared to study.
There are only six or seven days left before the college entrance examination on June 6, and the learning atmosphere in the class has become much more solemn.
The study class was very quiet, and there was nothing special in Chinese that required me to ask the teacher questions.
So everyone was silently reciting the text, or reviewing some words and pinyin that were easy to confuse.
What about questions like reading comprehension?
Then just let it happen.
This thing doesn't mean you can definitely get points just by mastering some methods or techniques.
At least in Li Luo's impression, the Chinese reading comprehension section in this year's college entrance examination was quite difficult.
It is said that after the college entrance examination paper came out that year, someone went to ask the original author of the reading comprehension article, but he himself couldn't answer it.
During this period of time, Li Luo has actually been intentionally taking out the college entrance examination papers from his previous life and mixing them into the review content of the six-person study group.
But like the fish with a strange light flashing in its eyes in this year's Chinese test paper, Li Luo really didn't know what excuse to make so that Ying Chanxi and the others could prepare for it in advance.
In the end, I can only hope for the butterfly effect after my rebirth, and see if I can make the teachers who set the test papers change their writing.
When Li Luo took the examination before, he found that the content of the examination paper was somewhat different from what he had encountered in his previous life.
This shows that the butterfly effect is real.
There is a three-year gap between the college entrance examination and one's rebirth, and the butterfly effect will only be more obvious.
I just don’t know how much the college entrance examination questions will be changed.
Anyway, Li Luo has done everything he can. He mixed the college entrance examination questions from his previous life into his daily review process to leave an impression on Zhao Rongjun and the others.
When you really encounter it in the exam, you will most likely be able to answer it.
If you can improve your score by a few points, it could mean a difference of thousands of places.
It is a change that is enough to change a person's life.
But then again, if the college entrance examination paper this time is not much different from the previous life, maybe my ranking can move up?
What was the score of the top scorer in Qianjiang Province's college entrance examination in the previous life?
With a full score of 750, the top scorer's secondary subject score is likely to be 300 points.
So actually it depends on how many points you will lose in the three subjects of Chinese, math and English.
The subject with the biggest fluctuation here should be Chinese.
For experts, the goal is to score above 145 in both mathematics and English.
But it’s really hard to predict the quality of Chinese.
For example, the topic of the Chinese composition in the previous life was "Three Books of Life": the book with words, the book without words, and the book of the soul.
If nothing changes this time, Li Luo will bet in advance and prepare a draft, and he will definitely get a high score.
If there are changes, we will naturally have to deal with them on the spot, and there will naturally be more variables.
But Li Luo didn't force it, just let it go. ...
After lunch, Li Luo took the two girls to the classroom.
On the way passing by the small pond in the middle of the cafeteria and the teaching building, I saw many classmates gathering there and throwing steamed bread crumbs.
Xu Yinghuan was there too.
Yan Zhusheng walked over curiously and asked, then returned to Li Luo.
"What are they doing?"
"Feed the fish." Yan Zhusheng said honestly, "There were no fish in this pond before. We just raised some goldfish recently."
"So everyone came here to feed the fish?"
"Not really." Yan Zhusheng shook his head. "Huanhuan heard from others that if you feed the goldfish here and pray, you will have a smoother college entrance examination."
Li Luo: "...Why are you all so superstitious?"
"Pfft, pfft, don't talk nonsense." Ying Chanxi patted Li Luo's mouth quickly, "It's better to believe this kind of thing. Even if you don't believe it, you can't say it out loud."
"I know, I know." Li Luo waved his hand, "Then do you two want to go and feed him?"
"There are too many people." Ying Chanxi shook his head and said, "Let's go back and take a nap."
After returning to the classroom.
The lunch bell hasn't rung yet.
Yan Zhusheng borrowed Zhu Yufei's statue of Confucius, placed it on the table and worshiped it.
"Should I buy you a statue of Gauss? Mathematics has to pay homage to it too, right?" Li Luo joked with a smile.
"Is it okay?" Yan Zhusheng asked seriously.
Li Luo: "...You should take a good nap."
"Then lend me your math textbook." Yan Zhusheng stretched out his hand to him.
"What are you doing?" Li Luo didn't understand, but still took out a math textbook and gave it to her.
Then he watched Yan Zhusheng put the textbook under his pillow, lean his head on it, and prepare to sleep.
"What kind of metaphysical ritual is this?"
"Huanhuan taught me." Yan Zhusheng leaned his head against the pillow, opened his eyes and looked at Li Luo, blinked and said, "She said this is called the knowledge penetration method. When I sleep, I put a book under me, and the knowledge will flow from the book into my brain."
Li Luo's mouth twitched: "...Did she tell you that knowledge is like water, flowing only to the lowest places? You should cover your head with it."
"It doesn't matter." Yan Zhusheng shook his head. "I'm not good at math, and you're better at math than me. So even though my brain is at the top, compared to your math textbook, my brain is in the bottom of the knowledge pyramid."
Faced with Yan Zhusheng, who was so self-aware, Li Luo was speechless for a moment.
Her logic is actually self-consistent!
"Xixi." Li Luo stretched out his hand and poked Ying Chanxi on the back.
"What?" Ying Chanxi turned her head and glared at him with a blush, wondering if his finger did it on purpose, as it poked her shoulder strap again.
"Why are you blushing?"
"I'm hot." Ying Chanxi glared at him again, "If you have something to say, just say it. I need to take a nap."
"Lend me a math textbook."
"What do you mean?" Ying Chanxi was confused.
"No need to say anything, just take it."
"It's incomprehensible." Ying Chanxi muttered, but still stuffed his math textbook to Li Luo.
So Li Luo used Ying Chanxi's mathematics book as a pillow, and Yan Zhusheng used Li Luo's mathematics book as a pillow, and knowledge continued to flow towards the depression.
After waking up from a nap, Li Luo returned the math textbook to Ying Chanxi, not knowing whether this trick would work.
He can already hold Xixi in his arms while sleeping at night, so why would he go somewhere far away?
Li Luo suddenly thought of this question.
Then he inexplicably thought of a joke he had seen in later generations.
It is said that boys with different educational backgrounds have different tastes due to the level of knowledge they have. I don't know if it's true.
Li Luo lowered his head to glance at his crotch and thought that he might have to ask Sister Youyu the answer to this question, as she had more theoretical knowledge in this area.
……
After evening self-study, on the way home, Li Luo finally took the time to take out his mobile phone and take a look at the first order data.
The results were pretty good.
There are only a few hours left before the 24-hour subscription data is finalized.
The first order data has now reached 27,000, which can be said to have completely exceeded the expectations before the book was published.
Even Li Luo himself was a little surprised.
Originally, he thought that with the help of his popularity after being promoted to Platinum, plus the blessing mentioned in this chapter, it would be great if he could achieve an initial order of over 10,000.
Unexpectedly, the first order after the new book was put on the shelves would be so high.
It’s a pity that there are only a few hours left, and I guess it won’t break 30,000.
But even with this data, at the current starting point, it can be said to be second to none and unrivaled.
However, for Li Luo, this is considered the completion of a phased goal, and the next step is just to update it well.
It’s better to put the extra energy into the upcoming college entrance examination.
"Huh? Are you back?"
When Li Luo and the other two returned home, Xu Youyu poked his head out from the kitchen and smiled at them.
"Senior, what are you doing?" Ying Chanxi asked curiously when he saw her wearing an apron.
"Prepare supper." Xu Youyu waved at Li Luo, "I've prepared the dishes for you. Come to the kitchen and cook some. I'll make a cocktail."
"Why are you doing this all of a sudden?"
Li Luo walked into the kitchen and was pushed to the stove by Xu Youyu, who pressed her shoulders. She also put an apron on her hand, and she couldn't help but ask.
"You put it on the shelves today, and the first order is nearly 30,000. Shouldn't we have a small celebration?" Xu Youyu said with a smile.
"Then why do I have to cook for myself?" Li Luo looked at her sideways.
"If you don't mind my craftsmanship, then I can do it too."
"Forget it, let me do it." Li Luo quickly stopped her and said, "Just mix the drinks."
"Yes, sir." Xu Youyu gestured to Li Luo, and then said to the two sisters at the kitchen door, "Xixi and Zhusheng, please wait in the living room for a while. It will be ready soon."
After sending his two younger sisters away, Xu Youyu closed the kitchen door and quietly came behind Li Luo.
"Sister Yu... could you please stop making trouble?"
"What's the trouble? This is clearly a reward." Xu Youyu whispered in his ear, "Xixi and Zhusheng are outside, don't make too much noise."
