C1026 Three Million

Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter. A moment ago, Lee Yifann was quite serious, but in the next second, he became so funny that they couldn't help but laugh.    

    

Some people couldn't help but shout, "Actually, I also felt that it was very strange in the past. How could a person have so many titles? In the history of Huaxia, Confucius was already considered a very powerful person. But Confucius's title is nothing more than a thinker, educator, and philosophy. He was addressed as Sage Confucius. I don't think Aristotle is more powerful than Confucius. "    

    

" Right! " Mo Lingyan couldn't help but nod. "I also think that if Aristotle is really that powerful, wouldn't he be able to know everything and become a god?"    

    

"Don't be funny. In ancient Greece, ordinary people could learn. " Learn. " A little knowledge can be called a scholar. A little more knowledge than others. You can call everyone. For people like us, if we return to that era, we will be the top scholars! " Wu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and said.    

    

Lee Yifann smiled faintly, "It seems that everyone has the same opinion as me. A person cannot be involved in any field. Being involved in a few fields is already considered very powerful. But is it normal for Aristotle to dabble in everything? It was clearly abnormal. The funniest thing was, how many words were written in Aristotle's entire life? Three million!"    

    

" What?" Everyone widened their eyes.    

    

Some were even dumbstruck. "What a joke, right? In that environment thousands of years ago, writing three million words, why didn't you go to heaven?"    

    

"Kong Zi's works add up to only a few hundred thousand words, and it was still many students who relayed his words, counting some of the works that weren't considered his works, that's why there are so many words!"    

    

"This is too ridiculous, three million!"    

    

Everyone rolled their eyes. It wasn't like they had a computer right now, so they could directly type on the keyboard instead of writing. In that era where paper making wasn't invented, some relied on writing.    

    

Three million words, how long would it take to write?    

    

"I think Professor Mike should be very clear about the number of three million words, right?" Lee Yifann smiled and looked at Mike.    

    

Mike did not say a word. He remembered that whenever he checked on the internet, the literature books in Aristotle would be more than three million words.    

    

"Since Professor Mike did not say anything, I will continue." Lee Yifann smiled and turned around. "Let's talk about it now. In the ancient Greek era of Athens, writing three million words was not realistic."    

    

"Definitely not!"    

    

"Isn't this nonsense? ___ asked. I remember very clearly that the works of Aristotle were all written on parchment paper! The parchment paper is not an ordinary piece of paper, it's expensive! "    

    

" In ancient Greece, the population of Athens was only a few tens of thousands. How many sheep could tens of thousands of people raise? A few thousand is incredible! What could they do with such a small number? Even if we use all of them to write, it's still not enough. It would be amazing if we can write a dozen or two hundred thousand words!"    

    

Before Lee Yifann could explain, everyone could not help but answer for him.    

    

Even an idiot knew that this was impossible.    

    

"Don't worry, everyone." Lee Yifann waved his hand with a smile, signaling everyone to calm down. "I know many people are very suspicious of this, but to be honest, if there is no objective theoretical reasoning, I think some people are not convinced, right? "    

    

"Yeah, that's true!" Everyone nodded their heads in succession. Only with reason and evidence could one be convincing.    

    

"Then what was the situation in ancient Greece? We just need to refer to the cities in ancient China to understand that cities with a population of 100,000 people... It would be a huge city like Chang'an. Normal cities only have a few tens of thousands of people at most. In ancient times, productivity was very weak, and the population was very small. The low productivity resulted in low food production. If the population was too large, it was very easy to starve to death. That's why a city can't accommodate too many people. "    

    

Everyone nodded their heads. That was indeed the case.    

    

"In other words, back then, Athens only had a few tens of thousands of people. With such a large population, even if the whole population raised sheep, the sheep raised would not have enough sheepskin to make sheepskin parchment. Everyone can now check that the sheepskin parchment only uses the skin of young lambs. Talent As for the sheep that are too old, their skin cannot be used to make the parchment. Because the skin of the old sheep is too thick! "    

    

Upon hearing this, many people quickly checked and found that it was indeed the same as what Lee Yifann had said.    

    

"That's true. That means that we can only use the skin of the little sheep to make the sheepskin. The sheepskin that could be made during the ancient Greek era of Athens, it would be amazing if we can get a few hundred pieces a year!"    

    

"No wonder people liked to engrave words on bamboo slips and stones in ancient Huaxia. So it's not because we can't get the parchment paper, but because the parchment paper is too little, so there will be a lot of bamboo slips. "    

    

" But the bamboo slips are too heavy, and it's easy to break them. It's also inconvenient to store them. "    

    

Everyone discussed animatedly.    

    

"Be quiet," Lee Yifann continued to explain with a smile. "Obviously, the parchment paper provided during the ancient Greek era of Athens. The number is very little. Even if the entire country's parchments were brought over, it would not be enough to write. There is also the most basic problem, the price of the parchment paper. I think even a fool would know that the price of the parchment paper must be very expensive. Where did Aristotle get so much money from? He probably used all the money in the country to write a book, right?"    

    

Everyone burst into laughter. As long as one had a normal head, they wouldn't think that it was true.    

    

After all, there were other people in ancient Greece who were on par with Aristotle. If he used up all the money in the country by himself, would there be anyone else?    

    

Basically, it did not make sense!    

    

"There were some people on the internet who said that Aristotle used to be the emperor's army of the Osman Empire, ancient Greece, and other three empires. There were some people on the internet who said that Aristotle used to be the emperor's army of the three empires. They said that Aristotle used to be the emperor's army of the Osman Empire, ancient Greece, and so on. Sigh! It had to be said that there were many people who had their knees rooted in the ground these days, even if the truth hit their faces. They had to pull a condom and make up a bunch of lies to lick the smelly feet of their foreign fathers. Pitiful and sad! "    

    

Lee Yifann clicked his tongue and sighed. He had mocked the thoughts of some people, and some of them felt awkward.    

    

When they thought about how they had flattered and fawned over Mike, they felt their faces burning up.    

    

"Now, let's refer to Kong Zi's situation. During the Zhou Dynasty, in order to sort out Kong Zi's works, kong Zi used the power of the country, and at that time, he used the wealth of the country. He also spent two generations of hard work and took out all the bamboo slips, jade stones, parchment papers, and other things that were recorded in his works. In the last few decades, he had only managed to write five hundred thousand words! Aristotle alone wrote three million words. That was awesome! May I ask if this person is still a human?" Lee Yifann winked and said.    

    

Everyone laughed in tacit understanding. For any normal person, it was impossible for them to believe that Aristotle had such ability.    

    

Then, Lee Yifann changed the topic. "Of course, there was once a saying about the Baptism Party. In other words, Aristotle didn't actually write that many books, but he was a synonym. It was equivalent to a symbol. Many people wrote later on. But it was all on him. I have to say, idiots happen every year, especially this year. Let me ask you, you've written a great book yourself. Would you be happy to put the credit on someone else?"
