Chapter 35 Bookstore

Ding Rou walked to the Royal Bookstore, in front of him is a three-storey small building, glazed tiles paved the roof, the four corners under the eaves are hung into the shape of paper, ink, pen and inkstone to imply auspicious objects, vermilion lacquer pillars support the small building, the pitch-black plaque is four gilded characters, the 'Royal Bookstore' pen is Emperor Taizu of the Great Qin, and the jade seal is also stamped, highlighting the unique status of the Royal Bookstore to educate the people.

Although the Royal Bookstore is located in the bustling Yanjing City, there are a lot of people coming and going, but every pedestrian or carriage passing by the door of the Royal Bookstore will unconsciously lower the sound, the Royal Bookstore is like being in the downtown Peach Blossom Spring, quiet and quiet, the three-story small buildings are equipped with translucent glass windows, glass is used in most homes in the Great Qin Dynasty, and it is also the well-being of the people after the founding emperor.

Ding Rou traveled all the way, combined with the memories in the original body, and had a deeper understanding of the Great Qin Dynasty, the couple who crossed the couple are afraid that they are genius-like characters, not only glass, asphalt pavement, spinning, papermaking, printing and other money-making things, they have done it, leaving a little opportunity for latecomers like Ding Rou to show off, are they too ruthless?

Ding Rou thought so, chuckled as if she was complaining and unconvinced, her dark eyes were shining, although Ding Rou and the couple were not at the same time, but Ding Rou wanted to compete, she could still find the idea of making a fortune, and the benefits would not be all taken advantage of, Ding Rou raised her eyebrows slightly, if you don't believe it, just try it.

A richly decorated carriage was parked next to it, with a brocade curtain and a vermilion roof on the roof of the carriage, which came out of the house of the noble lieges, and a handsome little girl wearing a long skirt with new pleats jumped out of the carriage, set up a stool, and said in a brisk tone: "Mrs. Tai, please get off the carriage."

The little girl reached into the carriage again, and supported an old lady who was dressed in noble and majestic manners, with a few hostas inserted into a peacock in her unmessy bun, the old lady caught a glimpse of Ding Rou frowning and being stunned for a moment, the jade bracelet on her wrist swayed, and she walked into the royal bookstore with the little girl's hand. How could you come to the Royal Book Store alone?

Besides, although the girl just now looks similar to Miss Ding Liu, but the old lady has seen a lot of people, and it is easy to tell that she and Miss Ding Liu have different temperaments, ordinary clothes but full of confidence and tenacity, the old lady can see that she is a girl who knows how to forge ahead, not like Miss Ding Liu's inferiority and pride, the old lady originally had a little love for Miss Ding Liu, and always felt that she looked like her old friend, but I don't know when Miss Ding Liu became more and more unlike, the old lady was like a child, and it could be seen that Miss Ding Ding Liu was instigated. The old lady was very disappointed in it, she was easily influenced, and it was not worth paying attention to anymore, she looked like an old friend, but her character was far behind.

The steward of the Royal Book Office greeted him personally and said, "Say hello to the old lady." ”

"Get up, I heard that there is another batch of new books, and I am free today, I will take a look, the old rule is that I only need Buddhist scriptures."

"It's all arranged for the old lady, please move to the private room." The steward was diligent, leading the way, and did not invite the old lady to the third floor, the old lady of the noble family was not in good health, and the steward could not afford to climb the stairs, so he opened up a delicate and comfortable private room on the first floor for the old lady to buy and read.

After Ding Rou walked into the Royal Bookstore, he only looked at the back of the old lady, and there was a sense of familiarity in his heart, it was someone Ding Rou had seen before, Ding Rou did not think about it, and was shocked by the Royal Bookstore in front of him, as if he was in a modern library, except for no modern electronic products, the entire layout of the bookstore was the same as the library, the bookshelves full of books were placed against the wall, a total of four floors high, more than a dozen bookshelves, and there was only a gap in the middle that two people could pass by, and there were wooden tables and chairs placed at the windows of the hall, which were used for reading, when Ding Rou came in, There are already some people reading books, most of them are wearing Confucian clothes, and it seems that they should be readers.

Ding Rou looked up along the stairs, the layout of the second and third floors was better, Ding Rou saw that the wall was pasted with Taizu Mingxun, clarifying the rules and regulations of the Royal Book Company, no noise, no stealing books, no damaging books, Ding Rou was very familiar, and had a little more good impression of the good-hearted Emperor Taizu, with the Royal Book Company, there were more people who read books, and there would be more exchanges, and the ignorance of the people made it difficult for society to progress, and it was always beneficial to read more, and the Empress Taizu was doing their best to change history, Although they rebelled and became emperors and empresses, it was unrealistic to implement a constitutional monarchy or a socialist system under the current conditions, and the social situation determined the superstructure, and the creation of a dynasty was the only way to go.

There is a collection office at the door, and everyone who comes to read the book has to pay a certain amount of copper money, Ding Rou asked: "If you go to the second and third floors, you will also collect money?" ”

"Little girl, are you coming to the Royal Book Store for the first time?"

"Hmm."

The little steward is in his thirties, with a few strands of beard on his chin, and his face is white and white, and he is a scholar, "In addition to the nobles, those who can go up to the second and third floors can also lift their children." ”

"Not everyone?"

"That's natural, the first floor of the common people is enough, it's useless to go up, delay the effort, little girl, you're here to find a book to read, the bookshelf on the east side is full of books."

The scholar introduced the layout of the first floor, Ding Rou was white and clean, the pear vortex smiled, and was very polite, the scholar steward looked at Ding Rou very comfortably, and his face was pleasant, "You haven't reached yet, Taizu's famous training is not subject to copper coins, go find a book to read, if you look at it, I'll give you a twenty percent discount." ”

Ding Rou smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Steward." Ding Rou's politeness, so that the scholar steward is in a better mood, he has been working in the Royal Bookstore for a while, and has seen a lot of high-spirited young ladies, these girls are not very literate, and there are not many people who come to the bookstore, when I meet Ding Rou such a sensible and delicate little girl, the scholar steward will explain two sentences, and Ding Rou said which position of the book is more precious, after all, there are more than a dozen bookshelves, although there is a rough classification, but it is not easy to find books, you have to be in charge of guidance, Ding Rou has a rough outline of where to find books.

Ding Rou listened with a smile, occasionally showing her admiration for the scholar's steward, and her title changed from uncle stewardship to: "Thank you uncle for your advice, without you, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it when it gets dark." ”

Everyone likes to be respected, Ding Rou's timely performance, why don't you close your mouth when the scholar steward smiles, Ding Rou took the opportunity to ask: "What books are on the second and third floors?" Uncle, the Royal Bookstore is so spectacular, I can go back and talk to my friends. ”

Ding Rou made it look like she wanted to go back to show off, she should be like this at this age, and when the scholar steward was about to look at it, she heard the words next to her: "You dare to tear up the books?" ”
