More than 100 catties of fish are enough for more than one or two silver, even if the vegetable vendors in the rural market towns in later generations can rarely do nearly 1,000 yuan of business at once, no wonder Brother Ma has this sigh.

Jiang Yi began to clean up the stall, and responded modestly; "Brother Ma has won the prize, it's nothing. We're out of sales, so let's go buy something first, and if we happen to go back later, okay? ”

In fact, there is nothing to clean up in the stall, just three rags, tied together, and Bu Ru in his hand.

"Okay, you guys go shopping, I'm pretty much there."

Jiang Yi thought about it, took out two pieces of money, handed it over and said; "You can pick a load of rice tomorrow, just ask for brown rice, and I will pay you a deposit of 200 copper first."

Brother Ma said heartily without hesitation; "No problem!"

He was not polite, took the money and put it in his arms.

The two held hands, and the two happily returned the deposit of 10 copper, plus the three catties that were sold before, in addition to returning Brother Ma, the remaining more than ten copper for buying buns, all of which added up to more than 380 copper, minus the 200 copper for Brother Ma, and there were more than 180 copper on the body.

Finally no longer shy, for the two of them, this is a lot of money.

"Chunya, with this money, we can get through this winter." Bu Ru's tone was a little excited, and it was like in a dream, you must know that he was desperate a few days ago, and the person who accompanied him at that time was sick and dying, and he was penniless.

"Well, we will have more money, and I will leave the matter of making money to support my family in the future, you can study with peace of mind, earn me a life and come back, don't let me be a peasant woman for the rest of my life, okay?"

"Spring sprouts, I ......" he thought; is a dignified and upright man, do you still need a wife to support him? Although he really likes to study, his previous dream is to be able to gain a fame, not to mention the glory of his ancestors, at least to show those who once looked down on him, he can do it.

However, after Chunya's illness, he slowly realized that he had only read for three years, and he was barely familiar with three hundred thousand.

Three hundred thousand is; "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names", "Thousand Character Text". Although it is the most classic and the main enlightenment book in ancient times.

Let's just say that this "Thousand Character Text", which was written overnight by Zhou Xingsi in the Song Dynasty if he had divine help, and his hair and beard were all white after he was written. There is not a single repetition of a thousand words in this book, and when a child finishes learning, it means that he has learned a thousand words.

This book can become an enlightenment reading material for hundreds of years, there are outstanding points, the book starts from "the heaven and the earth are yellow, the universe is desolate", four words and one sentence, rhyming every other sentence, it is catchy to read, very charming, and I don't feel difficult, the important thing is that this thousand words are not piled up without logic, but advanced layer by layer, and the whole and through.

That's it, the whole book is very literary, gorgeous, the most important thing is to quote scriptures everywhere, each has its own source, and the explanation is a small story, which children like.

However, the scientific examination is not to be familiar with a few enlightenment books, but to read through the four books of "University", "Analects", "Mencius", and "The Mean".

Each of these four books is a brilliant masterpiece, obscure and difficult to understand, and needs the guidance of a teacher, but he does not have these books in his hand at all, and there is no one to guide him.

Although I borrowed someone else's to read it for a while, I was not familiar with it at all, and I couldn't understand it, and when I went to take the Xiucai test, I not only had to read the four books thoroughly, but also be proficient in any one or more of the five classics of "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", "Zhou Yi" and "Spring and Autumn".

It's not enough, you also have to learn to make a fuss. Learning to write articles, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are indispensable, how much does it cost? How much time?

If you don't read these four books and five classics thoroughly, you won't be able to take the test at all, and you won't even be able to pass the test for children, let alone show talents, lift people, and enter the scholars.

Chunya is still young, and the family is very poor.

It's useless to be a scholar, and if you come to a 'ten fingers don't touch the spring water', who will bear this family?

Dreams can be had, but there is still a long way to go from reality.

Seeing that Buru was deep in thought, Jiang Yi said softly; "Brother Ru, I believe in you, you like to read, you were born to read, now that my illness is cured, I will work hard to make money, don't give up your dreams, okay?"

"But you really need money to study."

It is said here that money is needed, but in fact, it is not as much as imagined, one is the money for buying books, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, the second is to raise an extra person for idle meals, and the third is the money for ointment and lighting.

However, in this era of low productivity, the average family of five has to save money and work hard to barely support a person who eats idle food and buys books, pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

After seeing those high-priced cram schools in later generations, Jiang Yi didn't think that this amount of money belonged to the category of 'a lot'.

"You can make money slowly." Jiang Yi stared at Jian Mei and frowned slightly, revealing a hesitant Xiao Langjun, and said with relief.

I have the consciousness of being hundreds of years ahead, can't I make money to support a scholar?

The two chatted while walking, and for the first time, they went to buy two catties of salt and used 30 copper.

Then I went to buy a quilt weighing 10 pounds.

The ancient quilt was based on the number of catties of cotton to set the price, 8 copper pounds, more than 10 catties of bed sheets, such quilts are counted, warmer than the 8 catties of quilts on Jiang Yi's bed now.

With this quilt, no matter how cold the winter night is, my brother can spend it warmly.

Most of this fish was caught by his younger brother, and now he lives in his own house without even a quilt, and it is so cold, who will buy it if he doesn't buy it?

On the way, I bought a mat for my younger brother, which only cost 10 copper.

Then he walked to the shoe stall and planned to buy a pair of shoes for Buru and his younger brother.

But at this time, Bu Ru lost his temper and said viciously; "If you don't buy a pair, I don't want it."

"My shoes are still worn, look at yours, the toes are running out, hehe."

Because the shoes are basically made of rags, women use their free time to accept, so it is not very expensive, and then after Jiang Yi's two small mouths continue to grind and bargain, the shopkeeper of the shoe store finally surrendered, and bought two pairs of 34 copper, which is still of medium quality.

Carrying a lot of things, Jiang Yi was refreshed; It feels so good to shop, if you have a lot of money in the future, how cool it is to go shopping every day.

But now there are 28 copper left on his body, and he originally planned to buy some oil, but when he passed by a bookstore, he spent 10 copper to buy a brush for Buru.

"Brother Ru'er, you have to practice calligraphy when you read, but unfortunately you don't have much money to buy paper, you can find a fast wooden board and practice calligraphy in water, okay?"

Bu Ru was a little choked with emotion, and really let himself go to study, then Chunya would take on more things, a whole family, plus herself.

"Don't worry, we'll still have money, and next time we bring the fish over, there's still some money, and I'll buy you two more books then, okay?"

"If you sell this money, you will spend it for my brother and me, and you won't buy anything yourself."

"It's okay, I don't need anything in particular." Looking at Xiao Langjun with a guilty face, Jiang Yi showed a gentle smile on his face.
