Into Unscientific

After giving Hook a precise stab at the heart, the Maverick in a good mood invited Xu Yun to the street to eat a lentil sandwich, which is extremely rare.

Looking at the sign of Yage Hotel not far away, Xu Yun chewed the dry bread, but he couldn't help but feel a little bit of emotion in his heart.

According to the normal historical trajectory, there will be a fire recorded in London in 1666.

Because of its far-reaching impact, historians even named the fire 'Great Fire'.

Hooke had shown such architectural talent after the fire that he was directly involved in rebuilding London, so it was not until late 1668 that he had time to go to Trinity College to challenge Barrow.

At that time, Barrow was helpless to the questions raised by Hooke, and was crazily humiliated and ridiculed by Hooke in front of a group of students, and finally even alarmed the principal of Cambridge University.

As a result, Barrow got a serious illness. After recovering from his illness, he resigned from the position of Professor Lucas in 1669 and elected Maverick as the next Professor Lucas.

In the later time, Barrow gave up mathematics and began to study theology with all his heart, which is quite a bit like seeing through the red dust and cutting off the troubles in the local martial arts novels.

Later, Barrow received a doctorate in theology in 1670. In 1672, he officially served as the dean of Trinity College. In 1675, he was promoted to the vice-chancellor of Cambridge University. Although this resume seems very beautiful, it recognizes Barrow’s theological achievements. not mathematics.

And from late 1673, Barrow was bedridden and died in 1677.

No one can say whether Barrow's untimely death is directly related to Hooker's mess, but one established fact is very clear:

That is, a top Lucas professor abdicated early and turned from mathematics to theology.

You know, at this time, Barrow has already obtained the product and quotient of two functions and the differential theorem, which is a level that Mavericks can't reach at all now.

In terms of research progress, he is actually the number one person in the field of calculus at this time!

Therefore, in some small circles, Barrow's evaluation is somewhat similar to the young general Qu'a in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, belonging to the kind of "general star" who fell early.

Now with the appearance of Xu Yun, Mavericks averted a catastrophe for his teacher by chance, but he forged a grudge with Hu Ke head-on, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.

Twelve days passed in a flash, and a new Sunday arrived in a blink of an eye.

grantham.

Church of St. Tidodia.

Today, the entrance of the church is still crowded with people, and the deep and magnificent hymns faintly spread from the interior of the building, and the formation is even bigger than when Xu Yun first came.

This is the second week of November. According to the customs of the British Peninsula in the seventeenth century, on the second Sunday of every month, the whole of England will hold a large-scale trade fair based on the fourth administrative district.

The trade fair starts on Sunday afternoon and runs until 2-3pm on Monday.

Therefore, on this day, the worship bell of the church will ring an hour earlier, and the communion link will be omitted during the worship process, so that everyone has enough time to buy or sell things.

This kind of assembly seems to be formed spontaneously by the people, but in fact it cannot be separated from the support of the diocese.

Therefore, in previous gatherings, the church will also sell some holy books, portraits of saints or drinks, etc.

Today, however, the stalls belonging to the Diocese of Grantham are different:

There are no holy books, no portraits, only fist-sized clay jars neatly arranged on a table.

Four or five huge pottery jars were placed behind the table, and beside the pottery jars stood Xu Yun, Mavericks, William's family, and several helpers in church attire.

According to the agreement reached by Yarlin and William.

The diocese will sell ketchup to more than a fifth of the East Midlands, Grantham is only a small part of the territory.

At the same time, considering that this kind of non-religious business is not in line with the style of the church, Yarlin handed over the booth of the assembly to the William family.

The diocese only deployed a few people to assist in the statistics, and to be responsible for the dispatch of some materials.

Mrs. William was wearing a cotton dress at this time, with a white turban wrapped around her head, and she was wiping her hands anxiously on her apron:

"Honey, how long until the meeting ends?"

William Escue was much calmer than his wife. He turned his head and glanced at the clock tower in the town, and said:

"It should be soon, maybe five to ten minutes."

"Duang—"

Before William finished speaking, a low bell rang from the direction of the church.

This is the closing bell of the church, heralding the end of worship.

Not for a moment.

squeak --

The two heavy doors of the church opened slowly, and a stream of people gushed out from them accompanied by a stream of body odor.

Mrs. William's expression became more and more tense, and she ordered to Lisa and the others in a hurry:

"Lisa, look at the position of the spoon again. Elura, check if the lid of the jar is covered and Andrea, where are the potatoes, bring them out quickly!"

The meeting place is located on a street next to the church, and the parish stall is at the front of the street, which is the only entrance.

In addition to the exclusive cross sign, as long as the visitor is not an interstellar player, he will definitely see this booth at the first sight when he walks into the street.

Tiffany Boli, who had just left the church, held her son Dino's little hand, and wrapped him in a scarf that was somewhat leaky, and lowered her head and asked:

"Dino, tell mom, did you pay attention to today's Sunday school class?"

Eight-year-old Dino jumped up and down on the bricks on the ground, and said happily:

"Yes, today is the story of Job, hey, Ma Ma, what is that?"

Tiffany Boli was listening to Dino's words with a smile, but when she heard the words, she turned her head subconsciously and found that what Dino was referring to was the stall at the entrance of the market.

She smiled and touched her son's head, and said:

"Oh, that's the church booth, let's go and have a look."

Tiffany Boley's husband is a tailor in the town of Grantham. Due to his exquisite craftsmanship, his income is not low. The family basically has no worries about food and clothing, and they are considered a middle-class family.

In August of this year, Tiffany Burley had just bought a portrait of the apostle Peter at a rally to hang at home. Unexpectedly, a cat ran into the house not long ago and tore more than half of the portrait.

Therefore, since the beginning of the month, she has been planning to buy a new portrait at the market and go back.

As a result, as soon as she led Dino to the side of the booth, a male voice came from her ear:

"Hi, would you like some of the new ketchup? Free tasting!"

"ketchup?"

Looking at the weird young man with black hair and black pupils in front of her, Tiffany Boli couldn't help swallowing what she was about to say, and asked curiously:

"what is that?"

The black-haired young man pushed a plate in front of her very familiarly, and took a small piece of thinly sliced ​​potatoes from the side:

"This is a new type of sauce from the East, made of non-toxic tomatoes, guaranteed by the Diocese of Grantham, look, there is a handwritten letter by Pastor Yarlin here.

The quantity is limited, so you can try it before making a decision. "

"Tomatoes?"

Hearing this term, Tiffany Boli couldn't help showing a trace of hesitation on her face.

In her cognition, tomato is a kind of poisonous food.

Then she glanced at the sign of Grantham Diocese on the booth, and several parishioners dressed in church clothes behind the booth. The trust brought by faith eventually overwhelmed the impression brought by rumors.

The tailor's wife carefully picked up a shredded potato, lightly dipped it in tomato sauce, put it in her mouth and took a bite.

After a while, her eyes suddenly lit up:

"How do you sell this thing?"

Opposite him, Xu Yun smiled at her and raised two fingers:

"Ten ounces of tomato sauce for just 2p!"
