Chapter 2198 2203 That friend of yours is a girl, right?

While Yuan Ling was talking, Su Li listened quietly. She never thought that her younger brother would be so thoughtful.

The more Yuan Ling talked, the more excited he said: "Sister, reading can enlighten people's minds. There is no doubt about it. Which books to read are more useful and can save the country and the people. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally figured it out!"

Yuan Ling threw the sage books in his hand on the ground, and said: "Those sage books can certainly write beautiful articles and help people enter official careers, but I have seen a book that can make people live better. Solution! Sister, I don’t want to read these sage books anymore. No matter how well written the articles are, what’s the use of the rhetoric? The most important thing is to have enough food to eat, clothes to wear, and a house to live in! Sister, you have always been a pragmatic person, and you disdain those sour things. The subject "Mathematics" you created is ultimately applied in practice to help People have solved many problems. Now, I don’t want to study those Four Books and Five Classics anymore, I want to learn more useful things!”

As Yuan Ling spoke, his chest was heaving, his face was red, but his eyes were firm. He walked up to Su Li, half-kneeled in front of Su Li, grabbed Su Li's wrist, and said, "Sister, I know Yuanyang The fleet is coming back, and this time the ship will go to sea again, and will take the remaining students of the language school to study abroad. Sister, I want to go too, so let me go too! I want to learn how to make food Increase production, how to build high-rise buildings, how to make more clothes, I don’t want to hide at home anymore, memorizing those sage books!”

"Ling'er, do you want to study abroad!?" Su Li's eyes were filled with shock, never expecting Yuan Ling to have such an idea.

"Yes, I want to study abroad, I want to learn useful skills, skills that can be used in practice! When I come back from my studies, I want to work for my sister and brother-in-law in Qin State, so that the people can live a better life. "Yuan Ling said very excitedly: "Sister, please promise me. Language is not a problem. I have a good memory and can endure hardship. I will go to intensive study and I will definitely keep up with the progress!"

Su Li looked at Yuan Ling and knew that although this child was young, he was very determined. Seeing his resolute appearance, Su Li understood that he was determined to die.

Su Li sighed, with gratification in his eyes, he touched his younger brother's cheek, and said: "Good boy, you really have courage and vision, and you are worthy of being my good brother, Su Li. But, I can't decide this matter. You have to understand , the ocean-going ship can only arrive after several months of sailing on the sea, and it has to experience countless winds and waves in the middle. If you are not careful, you will be buried in the sea. You are the son of your fourth uncle and four aunts. You must get the consent of your parents before I can let you You sail with the fleet."

"Okay, Sister, we have made a deal, as long as I can persuade my parents to let me go, you will agree to send me to study abroad!" The boy's eyes shone with hope, and he stretched out his little finger: "Sister, let's pull the hook, Don't go back on your word!"

"Okay, pull the hook!"

Although he knew that getting his parents to agree was not an easy task, Yuan Ling was extremely happy when he finally said what he was holding back in his heart.

Su Li looked at Yuan Ling, his eyes flickered, and he suddenly asked, "Ling'er, who is that person who asked you what skills you have?"

As soon as Su Li asked this question, who would have thought that the young man who was full of fighting spirit and full of hope and longing for the future suddenly looked like a cooked prawn, blushing thoroughly, and hesitated and said: "No, no one, one , a friend I know..."

"Oh? A friend you know?" Seeing his appearance, Su Li became even more puzzled. He touched his chin and stared into Yuan Ling's eyes: "Is your friend a girl?"
