Chapter 89, Bookshop
84_84001 The next day, Li Yihe woke up a few children, had breakfast, and went to the largest bookstore in the county.
The bookstore is very large, there are several students in it who are choosing books, Li Xuejian has liked to read since he was a child, there was no such condition at home before, the uncle's books were not allowed to move, he secretly read the third uncle's books. Later, he moved to Ye's house, and the books in Ye Zimo's study let him read casually, he was very envious, this time Li Yihe promised him to let him choose more books, looking at the books in the store, his eyes lit up, and he went straight to the bookshelf.
After Li Yihe prepared to go back this time, he asked his eldest son and second son to go to the town school to study together, and Li Xuefeng also went over to pick them up.
Li Xuesi is still young, although he also knows a lot of words, but he has no interest in these, just walking in the bookshelf, looking at this, looking at that, everything is novel and interesting.
Li Xiaoran looked next to the bookshelf, row after row, it seemed to be very big at first glance, but there was a lot of space between the two rows of bookshelves, and there were actually not many books on the shelves.
In addition to the enlightened reading materials of students such as the Three Character Classic, although there are subsets of classics and histories, there are not many, there are also some travelogues, scripts, word stickers, etc., and there is a shelf with some official copies of the old years, and some calligraphy and paintings are hung on one wall.
On the side of the bookstore, there are also a few tables, on which there are pens, ink, pens, inkstones, etc., and two students are bowing their heads and copying books seriously.
Li Xiaoran asked curiously: "What are they copying?" ”
The guy is not very old, only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he is very clever, looking at the two teenagers in this group of people are carefully choosing, knowing that this family is sincere to buy books, so he replied with a smile: "The girl doesn't know, the owner of our shop is a person who loves talents, and some students don't have money to buy books." The proprietor allowed them to copy the book, as long as they paid ten cents, they could copy it for a day, and they could take one away if they copied two books, so many students came here to copy the book! ”
Li Xiaoran listened strangely, "How many days does it take to copy this book?" ”
The guy smiled: "What kind of book, but it's like a relatively thin one, and it usually takes a day or two to copy it." ”
It's twenty dollars for two days. She furrowed her brows and asked, "How much do these books sell for?" ”
"The price is not the same. Like the one he copied now, it costs 500 wen in the store, and he can copy it in half a month. It only cost one hundred and fifty dollars. The guy replied with a smile.
No wonder they say that they can't afford to read without money. This book is also a bit too expensive.
However, the proprietor's idea was not bad, and he could make money and get books at the same time. "I don't understand. In case everyone, whether you have money or not, you think it is cost-effective to copy books. If no one spends money on books, won't the owner lose money? ”
The man didn't expect that this little girl would be so young that she could think of this. His attitude was a little more enthusiastic and said, "The little girl doesn't know. How can those students waste so much time on this, if they can really afford to buy books, they can read a lot more books in that half a month. Again. Students who come to copy books should have neat and beautiful handwriting. It also needs to be recommended by various colleges or schools, and not everyone can copy books if they want to. ”
Only then did Li Xiaoran understand that copying books also has to pick people.
Li Xuejian chose six books, Li Xuefeng chose two, and Li Xiaoran chose two travelogues, spending a total of more than seven taels of silver.
Li Xiaoran stuck out his tongue, these books are too expensive.
Do you think that you can open a movable type printing factory, which can not only make money, but also reduce the cost of books!
After handing over the silver, Li Yihe took a few children to the grocery store to buy two catties of brown sugar, two catties of sugar, and fifty catties of rice, and went to the cloth village to buy eight horses of coarse kudzu cloth and eight horses of muslin, loaded them on a mule cart, and bought a large piece of pork, which was more than 20 catties, and then drove the car, let the youngest son and youngest daughter get in the car, and went to Fu Yuwan's house.
The eldest dog and the second dog greeted them from a distance in the village, and when they saw them saluting, the group walked home.
Fu Yuwan has a lot of land at home, knowing that he is coming, she left her second father at home, and the Zhuang family is not so particular, after saying hello, Li Yihe beckoned a few children to unload things.
Li Yuzhu looked at so many cloths, sugar food, etc., and looked a little stupid, Fu Yuwan stopped them from moving, "My sister let me earn a tael of silver for the work I brought me, and now my brother-in-law has exempted us from rent, and now life is better, this gift is too thick, I dare not accept it." ”
Li Xuejian said with a smile: "Auntie is not polite, this is all my mother's order, my mother is not convenient to come over to visit my aunt now, wait for our family to build a new house, and then ask my aunt to come over to warm the pot." ”
Fu Yuwan couldn't refuse, and led them to put their things down in the hall.
Li Yuzhu accompanied them for a meal, and after the meal, Li Yihe said goodbye and left.
The big dog is Li Zhiqiang, the second dog Li Zhigang played very well with Li Xuefeng's brothers for a while, and reluctantly sent them away, and the second girl pulled Li Xiaoran to cry and ask her when she would come again, and also gave her a beautiful pebble that she picked up from the river.
Li Xiaoran said: "When my family builds a new house, please invite Sister Er Ya to come over and play." ”
Erya nodded heavily, looked at her very affectionately and said, "Don't forget to invite me!" ”
The day after returning home from the county seat, Li Yihe sent his eldest son to study in the town school, and when there were too many children, he couldn't live in a restaurant with his fourth uncle, so Li Yihe simply rented a small courtyard and let the two children live there with Li Yihai, and hired a mother-in-law to clean up the house and cook.
Now the people in the village already know that Li Yihe sold Ganoderma lucidum for 200 taels of silver, bought land to build a house, and talked about it behind their backs, Li Yihe is now bitter and happy.
After Li honestly knew, he spat out blood angrily, and hated it in his heart, this second child has been hunting in the mountains for so many years, but he has picked a few times of ginseng, but he has only sold dozens of taels of silver, but he didn't expect him to be able to pick a hundred years of Ganoderma lucidum, if there is no separation, is this silver enough for the boss to take the exam.
He originally wanted to ask the second child for this silver, but Tian pulled down his face with him for the first time and became angry: "When the second child was divided, what did you give him, that is also your son, you treat him so cruelly?" Over the years, he has served this family as a cow and a horse, and what kind of food and clothing is not earned back by him? He has been distributed now, and you are embarrassed to mention this money, and you are not afraid of being drowned by people foaming at the stars. I see that you are old and confused now, the boss is Xiu is your son, and the second is a cropper, not your son? ”
Tian followed him all his life to suffer hardships and sins, when she first married, her mother's family was also very solid, and she was also a beautiful girl at home, but she was far away from her mother's family with him, and suffered all her life, this time she pulled down her face, Li Honest rarely listened to her persuasion, although she said that she was uncomfortable, but seeing that Li Yihe and his wife were honest, and they went out for a few months, every time he went to the county, he would bring some cloth and snacks to his wife, and gave him a 20-year-old ginseng, saying that it was for nourishing his body.
Li Laoshi also slowly stopped thinking about the second son asking for silver, his wife was right, they are all their own sons, even if they are partial, don't be too biased. The second child is doing well, and when the boss goes to the exam, can he watch it?
Of course, Li Laoshi would not say this thought, and when Tian saw that he wanted to open it, he was also happy for his second son's family.
But Zhang's heart was alive, it was two hundred taels of silver, not twenty taels. He is the second eldest of the Li family, and this money should be handed over to the old man. As long as the money is handed over, then the money will basically go to their family.
She forgot that Li Yihe's family had been separated, and she mentioned it a few times self-righteously, and was scolded back by Tian, "My son is this silver in exchange for his life, you are black-hearted, cheeky and embarrassed to worry about his little silver, something that you don't know, and if you dare to worry about my son's money, I will let my eldest son divorce you." ”
Now the Tian family looks down on the eldest daughter-in-law more and more, but for the sake of a few children and the reputation of the boss, it is impossible to divorce his wife, but it is still okay to scare her with a few words.
Zhang pursed her lips, she was very unconvinced, she said very aggrievedly: "Mother, it's not that I'm worried about this silver, you think, the second child hasn't picked anything valuable for so many years, how can he be so capable just after a breakup?" If you want me to see, maybe he was optimistic about this before, and deliberately broke up the family, and didn't he go to himself after picking that thing and selling the silver. I hate that he has been hiding from his parents, look at the life he is living now, and the land has been bought, I went to see it yesterday, and the bricks sent over were a truckload, how big a house do you have to build! Look at them, they got so much silver, and they sent so many pieces of fabric to my father, and so many boxes of snacks, which is worth a few dollars! ”
As soon as she said this, Li Laoshi was provoked by her and felt uncomfortable.
The second child doesn't take him seriously now, he bought such a big land, and he didn't even mention it to him, he still heard the people in the village talk about it, where did he put his face as a father?
But what the old wife said just now made him embarrassed to say anything about asking for money, otherwise he would have become black-hearted and cheeky.
Thinking about it this way, Li Laoshi also complained about Tian.
After the Zhang family finished provoking, he was going to take a few children to Li Yihe's house, "Your second uncle is rich now, let's go to him, why can't he give you some silver to make a new set of clothes!" ”
Tian scolded her angrily, but Zhang didn't say anything, and took Li Xuewu and Li Xiaoxiao to Ye's house when her mother-in-law didn't pay attention. Li Xiaotian is older and has more thoughts, she is embarrassed to ask for things clearly. As for Li Xuewu, he was a heartless person, thinking about going to find a few younger brothers to play, and followed Lehehe.
The Ye family didn't open the courtyard door during the day, she specially picked one of these women to go over when they went home, and as soon as the door opened, she pulled the two children and squeezed in, and shouted in a loud voice: "Her second aunt, I heard that you have made a fortune, your nephews and nieces are a few inches shorter in their clothes, her second aunt is kind, hurry up and make a few sets of new clothes for my children!" ”
