Chapter 63: Taehyung Chamber of Commerce

Taehyung Chamber of Commerce

In the Kong Jiayi Pavilion, Yu Shu held a handful of broken silver, looked at the sign on the second floor in the hand of the boy opposite, and was ruthless, giving the money to the wolf, reluctant to let the child catch the wolf

Pinching the "ticket", Yu Shu finally entered the second floor of the library, it was noon time to eat, there was no one upstairs, there was a big room, there were bookshelves everywhere, high and low, staggered, a strong aroma of ink wood floated, no one said anything upstairs, only footsteps.

Yu Shu took the base nearby and flipped through it, probably an article related to Yi Xue, because she couldn't understand it, not a hundred words, she couldn't understand it, so she put it back again, looked around, and saw an old man standing under the bookshelf in front of him, and he went over to ask for advice with a knowledgeable look.

Sure enough, he found the right person, the old man heard the kind of book she described, thought about it sideways, and then led Yu Shu to say: "Come with the old man." ”

Under a row of bookshelves near the window, the old man bent down and rummaged for a while, and took a thick roll of thread-like books to her: "See if you want this." ”

Yu Shu took it and looked at it for a while, his eyes shining brighter and brighter, and he nodded in surprise: "That's exactly what I'm looking for, thank you." ”

This book of more than 100 pages is a record of natural disasters, for example, there is a certain year and month, a certain county suffered a drought, there is a certain year and month, a certain person who knows the eight characters, fell from a horse on a certain day and a certain time, and had a serious illness on a certain day, including when he entered the ground, there are detailed records.

More detailed than Yu Shu needed, it made her feel that the ten taels of silver were not in vain.

"If you want to buy a book, ask the boy to go downstairs to settle the bill, and if you want to copy it, go there and buy paper and pen." The old man left a word, and turned to leave.

Yu Shu held this, turned his head to find the boy, and after asking the price, he decisively went to buy paper in the direction that the old man pointed out just now, ready to transcribe.

Fifteen taels of silver, she has to have money to buy it if she wants to, the gambling house can't go again today, that kind of mixed place, there are too many shady scenes in private, she has to be taboo.

Spent a dime of silver to buy a dozen rattan paper, Yu Shu found a table against the wall, and after lying down, she began to flip through the book, probably browsing more than ten pages, and then took out a charcoal pen and copied what she needed on the paper.

She didn't eat lunch, she just sat and copied for an hour, until she was hungry and panicked, and the charcoal in her hand was so short that she couldn't hold it, so she wiped her hands unsatisfied, closed the book, rubbed her neck and raised her head, and saw that there was a person sitting opposite who was flipping through the book, but it was Mr. Pei from the gambling house. Yu Shu glanced at him twice, the other party noticed it, looked up and smiled at her, Yu Shu also smiled, vigilant, packed up the things and went to return the book, deliberately stuffed to the bottom of the bookshelf so as not to be bought, she went downstairs but heard footsteps behind her, and when she turned around, she saw that Mr. Pei came out behind her.

This Mr. Pei is very particular about his clothes, with a silver horn crown, a blue-green gown, piping on the cuffs of the placket, a layer of gauze on the outside, a jade buckle sachet on the belt, and a bright wrench on the fingers on the stairs, looking rich or expensive.

In the corridor, the two looked at each other, and Pei Jing said: "This little boy and stay, under Pei Jing, is the deputy head of the Taiheng Chamber of Commerce, and he has a relationship with the little boy in the gambling house, I don't know if I can invite you to drink a pot of tea and exchange calculations." ”
