Chapter 114: The Book Building

The library building of the Jixian Museum has become famous in recent years, making the poor scholars who have difficulty reading in the world grateful, but in fact, it looks a little shabby on the outside. Forrest gump

It's just two small three-story buildings in the east and west.

Inside, however, it is very attractive, with tall bookshelves inlaid on the four walls, the shelves are made of good wood and sturdy, and the books inside are neatly arranged, carefully wrapped in book covers, and the book is full of fragrance.

There are a lot of tables and chairs with strange styles in the center of the center, which is convenient for reading.

Over the years, there have been more and more books in the library, although the books provided to poor students are not rare books, only books, and they are far from being compared with the secret collections of the family, but they can also be called comprehensive.

It's just that the door of the library is always open, but it is not easy to enter the library.

Fortunately in Yazhou, the library building was open to all the scholars who came to study, and only charged a little money, allowing them to stay for a day, but now it is difficult, one is that the reputation of the Jixian Hall is great, and students from all over the world come to visit, and there are not enough books, and the place of the library is not enough.

It was Gu Nan who wanted to let the world have more readers, but he also had to formulate a strict system, only allowing students in Jixian Hall to borrow books from themselves, and others could not borrow books, they could read in them, but if they wanted to enter the study, they must also have a certificate issued by a prestigious local academy, and then a pass issued by Jixian Hall.

In this way, it was barely possible to ensure the normal operation of the library.

For a long time, Gu Nan was worried that the scale of the library was too small, but he wanted to persuade other families to provide books. It's really hard.

After so many years, most of the books in this library are still manuscripts supplied by Gu Anran. In addition to Gu Nan's own collection of books, there are also some that he acquired from the market. The number has not been enough.

Ultimately. There are still too few books, books are too expensive, and even if the price of books has been declining due to the rapid development of printing technology recently, books are still a luxury for a while.

Nowadays, it is extremely difficult to cultivate a scholar, and many families cherish their own brooms, and knowledge can only be known to their own families. The books sold outside are few and expensive, not to mention the small households. Children and grandchildren have no energy to study in the land, and some wealthy farmers want to change their homes for their children and grandchildren to study, but they are faced with the dilemma that they can't buy books with huā money.

The library building of Jixian Pavilion can be regarded as breaking the blockade of knowledge by the family to a certain extent, so that young people who are interested in reading have one more way. Forrest gump

Gu Wan thought, just develop like this. Maybe in another ten years, there will be several times more students from poor families, and in this court, the children of poor families will be able to share with the family. After all, there are few people in the family, and they occupy the majority in this world. It's still not a good family background. These people are not stupid. Which one doesn't have the heart to get ahead.

If the family blindly blocks it, maybe for a while. These people can't shake the status of the family, but year after year, one day, the family will no longer be able to stop these people from moving forward.

Instead of attracting resentment at that time, it is better to help them and form good karma before they make a fortune.

Gu Nan has a clear mind, he can see that it is different from before, since the previous dynasty, the imperial court has held imperial examinations, recruited talents, and the situation of the family controlling the court is not what the emperor wants to see.

The children of the poor family, the noble family, also want to break the blockade of the family, all want to develop, and they are many and powerful, although they can not be compared with the family now, but just look at the proportion of the imperial examination every year, you can know that the children of the poor family already have the strength to compete with the family, and they are gradually growing.

Gu Nan is not willing to stop this trend, although he is from a family, but his experience is a little bumpy, although he is not disgusted with the family, in fact, he does not have a good impression, plus he is well-informed and open-minded, he has the ambition to win the world's talents and nurture him in his early years, and now he has made up his mind to follow Mu Qi, and Jixian Pavilion came from this.

Today's library is the same as ever.

There were a lot of people, and the room was very hot, but in the library building, except for the sound of reading books, there was silence.

The Jin family came relatively early, and it was rare to find a window seat on the second floor, leaning against the window, and reading the scroll seriously.

He was able to enter the library road to study, or he personally went to the Jixian Pavilion to block Gu Nan's way, and only after accepting Gu Nan's examination did he get the pass, Gu Nan didn't stop him or open the door because he was on the cusp of the storm for a while.

Reading in the library is not expensive, and it only costs 20 yuan for half a day, but it depends on who it is, for those rich children, this money is not similar to nothing, but for the Jin family, it is a little difficult.

He worked for half a day, wrote for people, and earned about fifty or sixty yuan, plus he had to eat, buy some supplements for his mother, and buy some medicinal herbs, but there was really not much left, so even if he got the pass, he could only read for half a day every few days.

Gu Nan took Gu Anran to sit in front of the railing on the third floor of the library building, and through the lush bonsai, he could just see this Jin family man, and he didn't pay much attention to it, but this person was indeed a little more indescribably different than the scholars around him.

"It's not like a teenager from a poor family, but it looks like someone has carefully cultivated it." Gu Anran frowned and said, "Being so young and old, and knowing the rules of etiquette, is not something that a woman like Jin Xiangnong can raise." ”

Gu Nan smiled, but said in his mouth: "It's rare to have leisure, don't let irrelevant people disturb you, bring the article that was collected by the Jixian Pavilion the day before yesterday, and take a look at it together." ”

Obviously, this master and apprentice are not specifically looking at the gossip objects in the capital.

Gu Anran obediently went to the backyard to pick up the articles of his classmates.

Gu Nan evoked the students, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all - he was old, a bad old man in his eighties, he was about to enter the ground, and if he didn't cultivate an heir now, where would he have time to wait?

Looking at Gu Anran's straight back, Gu Nan was relieved, but also felt a little melancholy, a person's life is always accompanied by loneliness, when he is young and frivolous, he longs for his companions, when he struggles to move forward, he longs for his opponents, and when his life is complete, he is greedy for latecomers, fortunately, Gu Anran is good, he is not a successor, he is much luckier than others.

Gu Anran held a stack of notebooks, sat down on the chair obediently, and read them honestly and seriously.

Gu Nan has no wife and no children in his life, since he was fooled out by Mu Qi, and he also opened the Jixian Pavilion, if he wants to do his best, most of his thoughts are on the students, and now he has chosen Gu Anran as his heir, and he is ready to hand over his life's work, so he naturally wants to cultivate him in an all-round way.

After a few months, Gu Anran has become accustomed to being supported by his own teacher.

…………

Opposite the library building, there is a teahouse called 'Mingxiang World'.

I heard that the master was an idle prince of the previous dynasty, because the Mu family won the world, he had nothing to do, so he made a few shops and started a business.

The royal family of the Feng Dynasty, no other ability, but vassal elegance, that is instinct, open a teahouse, from tea to drinking spring water, tea people, are selected, plus open in the opposite side of the Jixian Pavilion, every day there are a lot of people who come to study, come to visit the talent passing, natural business is good.

At this time, on the elegant seat on the second floor, there was an old man over half a hundred years old sitting and drinking tea, if Gu Nan and Gu Anran were obviously not very interested in the Jin family, this person seemed to be specially looking to see the gossip object in the capital.

His gaze wasn't focused either, ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
