Chapter 167 Miscalculation? Miscalculation! (Part 2)

Chapter 167: Miscalculation? Miscalculation! (Part 2)

Hearing Wang Dafu's words, the genius's hand suddenly stopped in the air, and his whole body was in a bad mood. He thought to himself: "It seems that this alien lord attaches great importance to the secrets here! First, he let the alchemist hide from me, and then he did not let me touch these tools! I think if I didn't settle in this town, he would definitely not let me understand the specific secrets of these things! But..." Shen Kuo looked at Wang Dafu hesitantly and thought: "He doesn't seem to appreciate me at all. Will he agree to me settle here? In fact, this is no wonder, my knowledge is really difficult to reach the elegant hall..." Shen Kuo's mood became even lower when he thought of this.

In the following time, Shen Kuo's interest was greatly reduced and he didn't have the time to read it in detail. His intention was in Wang Dafu's eyes, but it was misunderstood: "It seems that these things did not arouse his interest! That's right! He is Shen Kuo! The most comprehensive scientific genius in ancient China! How could he be interested in these simple things? It's over, it's over! I have one less chip to keep him..." Wang Dafu didn't feel even more depressed because of the lack of hope of keeping Shen Kuo.

The two depressed guys stayed for a while, and then at Wang Dafu's suggestion, they left the alchemy room and walked towards the magic tower of the silver-haired magician. Neither of them spoke along the way, and they all silently looked towards their minds.

"Oh~~ It seems that there is no hope to stay here and settle down this time. I wonder if there is any chance to visit him again in the future..."

"Oh~~It seems that there is no hope to stay here to settle down this time. I wonder if there will be any chance to invite him to visit me again in the future..."

"Ah~~" Thinking of the depression, the two of them sighed at the same time.

However, Wang Dafu is not an ordinary person after all. His psychological quality is much stronger than that of ordinary people. When he is about to reach the magic tower, Wang Dafu made another effort: "Mr. Chen, Song Yue is unfortunately destroyed. What are your plans in the future?" In fact, the meaning of the invitation is already very obvious. Under normal circumstances, Shen Kuo cannot not understand.

But now it is not under normal circumstances. Shen Kuo, who has already determined that Wang Dafu does not appreciate him. Shen Kuo, the talented man, has risen and fallen today. Now he has fallen to the bottom. This sentence has become the meaning of Wang Dafu not welcome him to stay in Luliu Town. Especially the sentence "Song Yue unfortunately perishes" sounds particularly ironic to Shen Kuo. It should be noted that due to the influence of traditional concepts, although Shen Kuo is full of interest in various natural sciences and is very proficient in it, he is not proud of it. In his mind, the greatest achievement he achieved in his life should be the Hanlin Bachelor of Song Yue Empire and the envoy of Quan Sansi! But Wang Dafu said indifferently that "Song Yue unfortunately perished", which was like pointing at his nose and saying, "The Song Yue Empire is gone, what a Hanlin Bachelor of You, Quan Sansi Envoy is nothing!" If someone else had changed to another person, he might just turn his sleeves away when he heard this and ignore the mayor of Yiren, but Shen Kuo would not do this.

It must be noted that Shen Kuo has this strange obsession with unknown things. At the same time, although he is the "most comprehensive science and technology master" in China in history, his political IQ is extremely low, and he is not the kind of upright personality. The sentence "can share wealth and honor but cannot share hardships" is the best portrayal of him.

There are legendary magical skills in the Western Continent here in Luliu Town, which is an irresistible temptation for Shen Kuo. At the same time, in his opinion, Wang Dafu is the leader of a town, but he is a "useless" person with a country and family destruction, displaced, and no skills. Especially in this town, there are top figures such as Zhang Liang, Grand Secretary Tao Yuanming, and the military Shen Yue clan. He doesn't think he will have any "usefulness" in Wang Dafu's eyes. So although Wang Dafu's words are not "very impressive", he still endured it and did not attack, just lowered his head and remained silent.

Shen Kuo's silence further deepened Wang Dafu's misunderstanding. In his opinion, such an obvious inviting question, Shen Kuo refused to answer, which only means that Shen Kuo was not here. This perception really made him feel very frustrated. His only hope now is that the magic of the silver-haired magician can arouse Shen Kuo's interest!

When he came to the "magic tower" of the silver-haired magician, Shen Kuo looked at it for a long time in surprise, and after a while, he turned his head and asked in confusion: "Master, didn't you say you wanted me to visit the "magic tower"?"

Wang Dafu's forehead was covered with black lines and replied in a muffled voice: "Yes! Mr. Shen, this is our 'magic tower'!"

After hearing his answer, Shen Kuo turned around and observed for a long time, and finally looked at the building in front of him and said hesitantly: "Is this a 'tower'?"

The black lines on Wang Dafu's forehead became even denser, but he nodded and said affirmatively: "It's the 'tower'!"

Shen Kuo shook his head blankly and said, "I can't see it."

Wang Dafu tilted his head to the right ninety degrees, his ears pressed against his shoulders, and explained in a muffled voice: "Look at this way..." It turned out that the silver-haired magician's "magic tower" was actually a flat "tower"!

Green Willow Town has three special buildings - Wangji Equipment Center, which is in shape a huge Western half-body armor; Snape's undead alchemy laboratory, which is a huge Doraemon; silver-haired magician Arslan's primary civil magic tower, which is in shape a flat "tower" across the ground!

When Wang Dafu asked him why he wanted to build such a strange-shaped flat "magic tower", the handsome silver-haired magician shook his hair and replied: "Who stipulates that the 'tower' must be built up to a high place? Mayor, do you know that it is very cold to live in such a high place? I came to the East Continent because I didn't like living in such a house. Only such a flat "tower" can show my personality!" However, the real reason Wang Dafu found out in private was that Arslan is actually a super-fearing guy. Living on a normal "tower", he will not be able to get down because of his weak feet... In short, no matter what the reason, there is another very representative building in Green Willow Town!

This time it went smoothly. Arslan happened to be at home. At Wang Dafu's instructions, all the magicians used many wonderful magics, which made Shen Kuo both surprised and curious. At the same time, Shen Kuo realized: "It seems that I still have some status in the mind of this alien lord. At least he did not stop this handsome magician from performing magic on me. It seems that I still have some hope to stay here!" A glimmer of hope just emerged in Shen Kuo's heart, but suddenly

Seeing Wang Dafu glanced at him impatiently, his relaxed mood suddenly became nervous again: "Why is he looking at me like this? Could it be... He has performed too much by this magician? It seems that he still has no good feelings for me! Alas~~ Who said I am a useless person who only knows some useless skills? It seems that I have no chance here after all!" Thinking of this, Shen Kuo's mood was extremely depressed, and even his face was completely lost!

"Political Novice" Shen Kuo actually completely misunderstood Wang Dafu. In fact, Wang Dafu just glanced at him just now to determine whether he was interested in the magic of the silver-haired magician! When he saw that he was a little excited, Wang Dafu felt some comfort in his heart: "At least there is something in Green Liu Town that can attract the gaze of this master, and finally there is no hope left by him." Unexpectedly, Shen Kuo quickly restrained his excited expression and sternly looked. The little comfort in Wang Dafu's heart suddenly turned into nothing: "Oh, I didn't expect that even magic could arouse his interest! Alas~~ This is no wonder, he is Shen Kuo! Arslan's magic is just a mere primary magic, how can such magic attract his attention! Alas~~ Am I destined to be out of reach..." Wang Dafu's emotions also fell to the bottom.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was not easy for Arslan to demonstrate all the primary magic, and it was getting late. So Wang Dafu invited the handsome silver-haired guy and the genius of technology to come to Happy Forest and began to welcome the leaders who had just returned and the talents who had arrived in Luliu Town.

Everyone was very happy at this banquet, and only two people were not aware of the taste. Among them, Wang Dafu was trying to deal with the scene while constantly measuring and calculating in his heart whether he should directly invite Shen Kuo to settle in Luliu Town.

"I'll invite you directly. How can I know if I don't try it?...Don't speak anymore. If he refuses directly, it won't be easy to speak in the future!...But he is still very interested in Arslan's magic! Maybe he's just invited him to stay!... Please, you don't think about who he is! Just a little bit of primary magic can make others stay? Don't be naive, okay!" As he thought about this, Wang Dafu's head hurts more and more...

Shen Kuo is even worse than Wang Dafu now: "I'd better ask this alien lord to settle in his place... No, he will definitely not agree, and I can't bring him too much help... Let's just say it directly. It doesn't matter. How can I know if I don't try? Judging from the situation during the day, he doesn't completely appreciate me... No, if he refuses, what kind of face will I have to come here in the future?" The fierce ideological struggle left Shen Kuo without any appetite...

In the end, Wang Dafu decided to try it once and made up his mind. He asked Song Ci and his wife first: "Young Master Song, don't know what your couple have plans for the future?" He was still confident about Song Ci and his wife, because Sister Gao had already secretly notified him in the afternoon: "Song Ci and his wife had a great chat with Yan Qing and others at the recruitment hall. They also learned that Ye of the Yue clan settled in Luliu Town. He felt that there were many compatriots in the Song Yue Empire here, and the mayor himself cherishes talents and can promote talents without any restrictions. He has decided to settle here!"

With this news, Wang Dafu was naturally confident. Sure enough, Song Ci and his wife looked at each other and smiled and said, "We are also wandering around now. Mayor, you have many people from the Songyue Empire. We are also very close to Miss Shishi, Qingzhao, so I hope to settle down with you, I don't know..."

Before they could finish their words, Wang Dafu laughed: "Young Master Song is willing to settle here, this is the glory of Luliu Town!" After saying that, hesitated slightly. In order not to arouse Shen Kuo's disgust and make him feel that he had forced him to invite him, Wang Dafu deliberately asked in an understatement: "Mr. Chen came with Young Master Song and his wife after all, and I wonder if he would also stay in Luliu Town?" After saying that, he looked at Shen Kuo anxiously, afraid that he would say "no". Unexpectedly, Shen Kuo did not nod or shake his head, but instead fell into deep thought!

Wang Dafu's self-righteous tone caused serious misunderstandings to Shen Kuo. In his eyes, Wang Dafu came to Luliu Town with Song Ci and his wife. Due to their face, they had to invite him: "Ah~~ If it weren't for Mr. Song's face, would this strange man invite me? I just don't know if I would have the chance to become an official? With his attitude towards me, ah~" When he suddenly saw Wang Dafu's "impatient" eyes, Shen Kuo was shocked: "I'm thinking about something! If I don't agree quickly, he will definitely reject me on an excuse! Then there is really no chance!" Thinking of this, Shen Kuo immediately made a choice.

It doesn't matter if Shen Kuo's thoughts were over. Wang Dafu was so dizzy. He thought Shen Kuo was unwilling. He took a deep breath and was about to persuade him again. Shen Kuo had already raised his head and said to him: "Shen is alone now and has nowhere to go. Since Mr. Song and his wife are both here, I will stay there!" The system prompt rang in Wang Dafu's ears:

"Ding~~, the player has obtained the historical figure of the Song Yue Empire who is tragic among the people. Song Ci, the chief of the Song Dynasty, the goddess of the wife of Song Ci, and the genius of technology, Shen Kuo, and the three of them decided to settle in Luliu Town. Congratulations to the player~~"

After listening to this system prompt, Wang Dafu's first reaction was dizziness: "Goddess arrested Liu Ying? When did Song Ci's wife become a goddess arrest?" Suddenly, he reacted again: "No! None of the two wives of Song Ci's surname are surnamed Liu! Where did Song Ci's wife, the goddess arrested Liu Ying, came from? Where did Song Ci's original wife?" But now is not the time to consider these things, he decided to celebrate his successful retaining three talents first, and we will talk about these things later!

Shen Kuo agreed to stay, and Wang Dafu's chest fell to the ground. Finally, he was in a good mood and became more excited. He began to persuade several people to drink continuously. The atmosphere at the table became stronger. When he was happy, Wang Dafu suddenly remembered that he planned to see Qin Hui ascend the throne and had not told Lin Chong and others! He simply took advantage of the current high-level officials of Luliu Town, and he said to Lin Chong in a voice that everyone could hear: "Brother Lin, I plan to go to Song Yuezhongjing in a few days. The safety of the family depends on you!" After that, he looked at Lin Chong with a meaningful smile.

When Lin Chong heard this, his body was shocked. When he saw Wang Dafu's smile again, he fully understood what he meant. He did not do more. He just nodded seriously. The head of military affairs in Luliu Town made a silent determination at a reception banquet.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After the banquet ended and everyone left, Wang Dafu returned to his town mayor's house to think for a while: "I finally kept Shen Kuo, a great man! But it seems that he is not interested in me at all. It seems that it is difficult to get him to become an official!" After a moment of silence, he remembered something again and couldn't help but blame himself loudly: "I really didn't expect that Mrs. Song was actually a goddess arrester. When Brother Lin introduced it, he didn't seem to say anything! Fortunately, he didn't offend them, the combination of super forensic and goddess arrester! If he didn't keep it, he would lose a lot. It's really a miscalculation~~"
