Chapter 254: A Book of Thousands of Gold

"The first in the world, have you heard of it?" The little black fat man said, took out a copper coin from his arms, and played with it in his hand.

Liu He smiled: "The first in the world? Isn't that the emperor's family, who would dare to say that except today. ”

Seeing that this Mr. Tianji didn't know anything at all, the little black fat man shook his head helplessly and explained to him.

The first family in the world is a wealthy family surnamed Zhao, the family has learned to be an official outside, as many as hundreds of people, and the other men who stay at home, some are unwilling to go out, and some are still young and do not meet the requirements of the family.

But no matter what the situation is, as long as it is a member of the Zhao family, regardless of men, women and children, they are all full of poetry and books, and the head of the Zhao family has a seemingly ordinary, but very special title.

Scholar.

Some people will laugh dumbly when they hear this title for the first time, there are countless readers in this world, is it true that in this world, only the head of the Zhao family is worthy of being called a reader?

Indeed, there are thousands of people who read in the world, but this scholar of the head of the Zhao family has another meaning.

In ancient times, there were many wealthy families who were obviously able-bodied and clear-eyed, but they never read books themselves, but paid people to read to them.

The head of the Zhao family is such a scholar, who reads for others.

It's just that he, a scholar, is different from those who are hired by rich families.

Since he is a reader, he must have a book to read in his hand, but the head of the Zhao family never needs to hold a book in his hand, but simply leans on his back, and he can tell you about the books of the past and present.

As long as it is a book whose name you can tell, no matter what kind of book it is, he can recite it word for word.

There was once a son of a wealthy scholar who didn't believe it, and ran to the Zhao family with dozens of precious solitary books, and the head of the Zhao family carried it while holding the book to verify it, but dozens of solitary books were memorized, and it was word for word, and that person also paid the price of a thousand gold.

Since then, no one has questioned the head of the Zhao family, but many celebrities have traveled thousands of miles to the Zhao family to listen to the reader at the price of a thousand taels of gold and a book.

After hearing this, Liu He's interest doubled, this head of the Zhao family was also too godly, and he was able to memorize all the books that could be named.

But after thinking about it, Liu He frowned again.

"A book of a thousand taels of gold, how can I give him so much money? Even if you sell that kid Hua Chi, I guess I won't be able to listen to a few copies. Liu He said stupidly.

"Give this copper coin to the head of the Zhao family, and you can listen to it for a day." The little black fat man said, throwing the copper plate in his hand.

As soon as he heard that he could listen to a book all day in vain with this copper coin, Liu He's eyes stared at the copper coin flying in mid-air, and his body subconsciously blocked in front of the well, for fear that the copper coin would fall into the water.

In one day, you can listen to several books, to say the least, if the copper coin falls into the well, a few thousand taels of gold will be lost.

Taking the copper coin in his hand, Liu He finally breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered his head and looked at the copper coin in his hand curiously, but he frowned, "Isn't this just an ordinary copper coin?" ”

The little black fat man looked proud, "You don't know the goods, the head of the Zhao family can know the goods, you give him this copper coin, and you can listen to it all day." ”

Liu He suspiciously took the copper coin in his hand, looked at it for a while, and when he looked up, he saw that the little black fat man had already walked a long way, Liu He hurriedly shouted: "You haven't told me yet, where is the Zhao family!" ”

"Moling." The little black fat man said without looking back.

Hearing this place, Liu He couldn't help frowning, this name, it seems that he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

He hurried back to his room, took out his map, and examined it carefully.

Speaking of looking at the map, it is really difficult for this Mr. Tianji, not to mention the map of the Three Kingdoms period, let's just say that he never passed the geography class when he was in school, and until today, he can't memorize the abbreviations of the 31 provinces and cities.

After working for half an hour, Liu Hecai, who was sweating profusely, finally found the place of Moling in the southwest of the mouth of the Yangtze River.

Looking at the Moling that he had found with great difficulty, Liu He seemed to be a little hesitant.

This place is located south of the Yangtze River, obviously on Sun Quan's territory, although the Sun and Liu families are still allies, but because he has never handed over Jiangxia City, I am afraid that at this time, in the eyes of that General Sun, his hatred is already comparable to that of Cao Cheng.

In the end, the curiosity of the head of the Zhao family prevailed, Liu He carefully planned on the map, and found that Moling was not far from the Yangtze River, and now the Jiangxia he was in was also on the edge of the Yangtze River, all the way down the river, and saved the pain of a lot of carriage and horses.

Thinking of the happy life of boating on the river, listening to Xiaoqu and drinking wine, Liu He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

It just so happened that at this time, someone came to report that Tai Meng, Qian Zhuan and Wei Xiao had returned.

Liu He was a little disappointed, it seemed that he didn't have the opportunity to see the demeanor of the head of the Zhao family, but the three of them brought back the news, although the rumors had been spread, but in order to hide people's eyes and ears, and even more so as not to reveal their identities, they decided to return early.

And those rumors, it seems that it will take a while for the people in Yizhou and Hanzhong to brew before the climate can be formed, and according to the three of them, it will take at least two or three months.

Originally, they thought that Liu He would be disappointed by this, but they didn't expect Liu He to be disappointed when he heard that there were still two or three months left, but his eyes lit up.

It is really appropriate to take advantage of this time to go to Moling.

Liu He immediately began to prepare, and specially asked Wei Xiao to select the best ship around Jiangxia City and prepare to go to Moling.

For this trip down the river, Liu Hena is quite looking forward to it.

With these brothers from the Tianji Battalion, enjoy the scenery on both sides of the strait along the way during the day, drink and talk at night, eat hot pot and sing songs all the way, is there anything more nourishing in the world?

But he thought it well, and as soon as he got on the boat, he realized that it was not like that at all.

The Yangtze River is not at all as gentle as he imagined, and the turbulent water is something that Liu He, who was born in the north, has never seen, let alone being in it.

I didn't drink a sip of wine along the way, but I didn't vomit less, and when I got to the place, the pale Liu He stepped on the ground with two feet, and the feeling of steadfastness that he had never felt before almost brought tears to his eyes.

However, this trip to the Yangtze River has one benefit, that is, it can understand the background of other people from the side.
