Long Jing was even more strange, and raised the book in his hand, "Is this the kind of book?" ”

Zheng Sheng nodded, "Yes." Now that my Zheng's self-cultivation bookstore has opened, 17 kinds of sage works such as "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", "Book of Changes", and "Analects" will be given to Long's 10 volumes each. ”

Qiu Fuzi didn't pay attention to the other strange words in Zheng Sheng's words, and he asked in surprise, "Slim Bookstore?" When was this established. What does a bookstore do? ”

"It was a few days ago, I just thought about it. Bookstores, as the name suggests, sell books. ”

Qiu Fuzi glared, "Books can also be sold?" Also, your name is so weird! Self-cultivation, self-cultivation, what is the meaning? ”

Zheng Sheng coughed twice, "Doesn't it say in the Book of Rites that 'things are known later,...... And then what, what, the country is governed and then the world is peaceful', in short, isn't it: 'self-cultivation, family, governance, and peace in the world'? ”

"The Qi family rules the country and the world, and I can't do it for the time being. But when it comes to self-cultivation, I can still barely do it. So, I plan to continue to motivate myself with this. ”

Qiu Fuzi stroked his beard, "You seem to have forgotten the previous sentences, 'Knowledge, Knowledge, Sincerity, and Righteousness', only then can you cultivate yourself and govern the country." I ask you, when did you become sincere and right-hearted? Can't even memorize the rites? What it looks like! So I think it's better to call it Gemu Bookstore! ”

Zheng Sheng hurriedly completed the sentence, "Master, look, I can still memorize it." Moreover, the name of 'self-cultivation' also has the meaning of letting the scholars who buy books understand that books are used to cultivate one's self, cultivate one's character, and increase one's talents and abilities. ”

Qiu Fuzi was very satisfied with this explanation, "I hope so! ”

Long Jing on the side could finally interject, "I don't know how much such a book of "The Book of Filial Piety" costs? ”

Zheng Sheng looked at his nervous appearance, and said in his heart that this person was not useless, and thought of this section, Zheng Sheng replied: "This book costs 1,500 yuan." ”

Qiu Fuzi frowned, and Long Jing breathed a sigh of relief, "Heh, Shizi's book is really cheap." ”

Is it cheap? It's really cheap for Longjing. But for those poor readers, this is not a small amount of money!

"This is my first gift to Ryu." Zheng Sheng slowed down and continued, "The second gift, I plan to build a library here, which is a library that collects all kinds of books from all over the world. ”

Qiu Fuzi was suddenly startled, then happy, and finally turned into full of worry.

What surprised Zheng Sheng's courage was to build a library that collected books all over the world, and he was happy that this was a book all over the world, and finally of course worried, this matter was too difficult!

First of all, the most realistic question, who would want to give their own collection of books to Zheng Sheng?

Long Jing naturally thought of this, "Zheng Shizi has a good idea, but I'm afraid it's also difficult to do!" ”

"Doesn't that mean my brother's help? Ahem, though, I'll leave that at the end. I'm also going to give my brother a third gift. ”

Long Jing couldn't help but prevaricate: "Shizi, this matter of borrowing books, forgive me. These gifts are also well deserved. ”

Zheng Sheng smiled: "You might as well listen to my third gift." That is, the library is open to the elder brother. My brother can come into my library and browse any book anytime, anywhere. ”

Long Jing stood up suddenly, thought for a while, and said slowly: "The prince gave me such a big gift, what did I ask for?" ”

Zheng Sheng smiled and said, "Don't you already know?" As long as the elder brother can donate a rare and unique book to the library, he can exchange it for ten years of free entry and exit from the library. Two books for twenty years, three books for thirty years, and so on. When there are ten or more books, as long as my Zheng Library does not fall, the descendants of your family can come to the library to read books permanently! ”

"And I want a copy of your collection. When these books are printed, I will give them 20 copies each! ”

Long Jing pondered for a moment, "The actions of the prince are indeed unheard of. But I don't know, how many books do you have in your library now? ”

Zheng Sheng shook his head calmly, "Actually, there aren't many, but my brother should trust my financial resources, even without the help of your mansion, if I spend a little more time, I can find a lot of books." ”

Long Jing said in a deep voice: "Okay! I agreed to this. When I go back, I will know my father. I hope that the son of the world will keep his word! ”

Zheng Sheng nodded, "Please rest assured, brother." ”

Sending the guests away again, Master Qiu looked at Zheng Sheng carefully, as if looking at something strange.

"How do you think about such a thing? You once said that Zhuge Kong, the prime minister of Shu, is wise and close to demons, but I don't believe it. But when I saw you, I was a little convinced! Qiu Fuzi sighed.

Zheng Sheng smiled extremely innocently, "No, no, I'm a master, you grew up, how did I become a demon?" And, as Long Jing said, it is still unknown whether the library can be completed! ”

Qiu Fuzi sighed, he believed that the Long clan would finally agree to this, and this would be the beginning of the library. The temptation given by Zheng Sheng is too great, as long as you take out ten books, generations of children and grandchildren can come and enter and leave the library for free!

Although, it seems that Zheng Sheng's promise is also extremely unreliable, who can say clearly about the future generations?

"You raised the price of books in the Xiushen Bookstore, but collected books from all over the world in the name of the library?" Qiu Fuzi stared at him, "If it can be successful, the library will become a place that the world's scholars will happily go to!" Don't sell books, borrow books. ”

Zheng Sheng nodded, "However, except for the people who gave us the books, only the students of Qingzhu Academy can see the library. Outsiders, if you want to see it, every hour...... Ten bucks! ”

Qiu Fuzi glared, "You! Well, chasing the son of money like this, I don't think the Long clan may agree to your conditions! ”

Zheng Sheng retorted to him, "I'm still the same sentence, even if the Long clan doesn't agree, I have other ways to collect books!" ”

"Did you ask Zheng Wen to find other families to collect the world's unique books?" Qiu Fuzi asked again.

Zheng Sheng nodded, "Zheng Wen is in charge of Nanyang. It's part of the plan. ”

In fact, although Zheng Wen was very interested in the library, he was extremely reluctant to do what Zheng Sheng explained, which was really time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the temper of the various clan lords was not small, and they were very arrogant.

Although Zheng reluctantly squeezed into that circle in the name of Zheng Zizhi. But Zheng Wen imagined that it would be very polite for him to tell the housekeepers about the consequences of this incident, not to be beaten with a stick, and to send him away politely!

However, Zheng Sheng also told him some countermeasures, in addition to giving books and reading time, there are also Zheng Zi paper, fireworks business, drunken incense residence, etc., as long as it is Zheng's business, all of them can give some discounts appropriately.

After listening to Zheng Sheng, Qiu Fuzi was thoughtful.

And Zheng Sheng continued, "In addition to letting my cousin out. Gong Shinno also helped me! ”

Of course, he will not let go of good help such as Sima Chang and Sima Xin brothers.

After Zheng Sheng had the idea of opening a bookstore and building a library, the first person he thought of who could help was Sima Xin.

After he clarified the role of the library, Sima Xin readily agreed. For the sake of books, he left Concubine Zang and went back to Xinye.

It wasn't until early April that Sima Xin finally returned. He was accompanied by three truckloads of bamboo slips and one cart of paper books.

Zheng Sheng was dumbfounded, "There are so many?" ”

Sima Xin looked at the books, "Most of them were collected by my late father when he was alive. He left these books to me before he died. ”

Zheng Sheng immediately understood.

Sima Xin smiled, "Actually, there is another way to get more books. Do you know where the largest collection of books is in the world? ”

"Too learned." Zheng Sheng replied happily. But then, he smiled bitterly, "Taixue does have a lot of books, but they belong to His Majesty the Emperor, and it seems that they are not allowed to be borrowed, right?" ”

"It's not hard to ...... this"

While Zheng Sheng was working hard to collect ancient books, the new Shunyang farmer Ling Zheng Qing finally returned to his hometown of Nanyang, where he had not returned for several years.

He didn't have the idea of passing through the house without entering, but he only set out on the westward journey after a hurried visit to his father and a small gathering with old friends and relatives.

Come and go in a hurry, but come and go are also different. This time, he took his wife and children with him.

Zheng Qing sat in the carriage, his face full of tiredness after a long journey. But looking at his wife with a distressed face, and his son Zheng Liu, who looked at him with some fear, he smiled and said, "Send him to the prince!" I heard that the kid was very smart. It wouldn't hurt him to stay there. ”

At the north gate of Luoyang, a big man with a disheveled hair sat cross-legged on the carriage, and the beautiful hair that was carefully dressed on weekdays was scattered on the placket at will.

He brandished his iron whip and whipped his horse hard, as if he were fleeing from the devil's mouth, and he wanted to escape the majestic city as quickly as possible.

He was afraid of being ridiculed.

It wasn't until he couldn't see the city anymore that he stopped the carriage and recalled the scene more than a month ago, and he couldn't help but feel sad.

At that time, he was in control of the fate of the vast majority of the people in that city, and he said that whoever he killed would raze his three tribes! Whoever has merit will be rewarded!

And now, his mind is full of the words on the edict.

"The king of Dong'an was disrespectful and resentful...... Therefore, the lord of the king of Rujun was abolished, and the migration party was brought together. ”

Dethroned and exiled.

Sima Miao was not convinced, he was dissatisfied. That night, it was obvious that he contributed the most, but in the end, Sima Yun and Sima Wei got a much greater position of power than him.

As for him, Shang Shuzuo's official position seemed to be compensation for him, but less than half a month later, Sima Yun dismissed him from his official position. In another half month, his title was also stripped and exiled to Liaodong......

"I hate it......"

In the East Palace, the crown prince Sima Shu was writing.

The little yellow door on the side was reporting to him in a low voice, "Sima Miao has been deposed and has migrated to Pingzhou. ”

Sima Shu paused, he waved his hand and asked Xiao Huangmen to retreat. His mind was so messy that he couldn't even write.

Sima Miao had just made a great achievement, why was he exiled to the border land in the blink of an eye? What happened to this court?
