Chapter 199: The Man on Man
In addition to the signboards of the school hall everywhere in the town, there are more bookstores, all kinds of books, in addition to mathematics, physics and chemistry, as well as some engineering principles, it is Taibaiji. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
People here are diligent in learning, and naturally more and more people buy books, so in the town and state government, bookstores have also become a more lucrative industry.
Obviously, bookstores are actually one of the industries here, but whether it is a bookstore or other shops, there is a phenomenon that the consumption here is extremely strong!
It is also the strong consumption, so the rent of all kinds of shops is getting higher and higher, whether it is selling ready-to-wear, eating and drinking tea, all are in the market, countless craftsmen, a large number of salaries, and countless merchants, there are many gold and silver wrapped around their waists, many of which are lost here.
Even goods and shops that are not available elsewhere are available here, so that many people in Beijing have to take a car to buy here.
The creation of prosperity, to a certain extent, is so easy, that the number of people here may not be more than 100,000, but the consumption power of these 100,000 can reach a hundred times that of other places.
Silver has become everyone's goal, everyone is busy, and even Yang Xiucai, who came here to open the museum, couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he saw this scene.
However, Yang Xiucai is not disgusted, in fact, most of the Xiucai who come here are not much better, he also loves money, and a gentleman can take it from his love of money.
Gradually, Yang Xiucai found that he liked here, and there was an indescribable feeling here, here, everything you could think of could be bought, here, as long as you are willing to spend a lot of money, you are a person on the people, although it is only one step away from the Beijing Division, but no one cares about what dignitaries and nobles are in the Beijing Division next door, even if the dignitaries and nobles come here, most of them are just a purpose - money.
So here, everything is closely related to silver, everyone is busy, he saw many craftsmen with his own eyes, after getting off work, he took pen and ink to his own school, and listened to his lectures very attentively. They are even more attentive than those children who take the Xiucai exam, and they don't go back until late at night, they are stingy with their own tuition, so they have to learn knowledge, and sometimes after class, they have to pester Yang Xiucai to ask questions.
Call...... Yang Xiucai's heart had doubts, he couldn't understand why the people here were so studious, just to enter the workshop, this was too unproductive.
Every morning, Yang Xiucai always likes to eat tea in the teahouse, anyway, there is no class in the morning, hide in the teahouse, because there is a lot of tea, and the consumption power is strong, so simply drinking tea is no longer a selling point, and the teahouse always tries its best to let you take out the silver, such as inviting someone to come to the book, such as inviting someone to sing.
Yang Xiucai obviously doesn't like to join in the excitement, he likes the third floor here, the third floor is a private seat, although it is still open, but it is extremely quiet, only occasionally I hear the storyteller on the first floor talking about the wonderful place, and the cheers that erupt.
Today, there are already a lot of people sitting in the elegant seat, after all, there are too many merchants here, and there are also some small traders who are willing to come, although they are not rich and noble, but they will not be stingy with the consumption of these dozens of dollars.
Yang Xiucai came a little late, but he found that there was a lonely person sitting in the position near the window, a young man, wearing a Confucian shirt, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and decent manners.
There happened to be an empty seat on his desk.
Yang Xiucai did not hesitate, stepped forward and made a gesture.
The young man raised his eyes and smiled at him, obviously, he knew Yang Xiucai's intentions, so he got up and saluted, "Please take a seat." ”
Yang Xiucai thanked him, sat down, and let Dr. Tea serve tea, and couldn't help but look at the young man.
The young man looked pleasant, although he was just wearing an ordinary Confucian shirt, but he was vaguely a little noble, and his demeanor was incompatible with the environment of the town and the country, because here, everyone seemed to be 'vulgar', this vulgarity is not external, but in the inner outpouring of the interior.
Yang Xiucai looked at the young man, and inexplicably had a good impression, so he couldn't help but say: "Dare to ask the surname of the virtuous brother." ”
The young man smiled lightly on his face and said, "The surname is Ye." ”
Yang Xiucai smiled and said: "It's the same surname as Zhenguo Gong, you are also here to confer the museum, you are young, you already have the fame of Xiucai, why did you confer the hall here?" It's better to study hard at home for a few years, maybe you can succeed in your career? ”
Yang Xiucai felt sorry for Ye Shao, seeing that he was wearing a scarf, he was naturally a Xiucai, and most of the people who came here to give the hall were mostly after winning the Xiucai, but they were repeatedly famous in Sun Shan, so he had no choice but to find some other careers, and at this age, he really shouldn't waste his studies.
Young Ye didn't defend anything, and said casually: "That single-plank bridge is too difficult, so I just let it go." ”
Yang Xiucai couldn't help but smile dumbly, seeing that the young man's eyes were clear and translucent, but he suddenly felt that this young man's thoughts were a little deep.
At this time, I saw the young man looking out of the window with interest, and couldn't help but say, "What is Brother Ye Xian looking at?" ”
"Look." Ye Shao pointed to a ragged porter under him, holding a flat pole in one hand, as if he was waiting for business to come to his door, but with the other hand he seemed to be holding a book, reading very carefully, so that someone wanted to come forward to find some business for him, and it was prohibitive to see that he was serious.
Yang Xiucai looked at it and couldn't help sighing: "It's strange to say, everyone here is thinking about money, and everyone is reading with a book like Yao Shun, Brother Ye Xian, you say, these people are here just to work, so what are you doing with so many books?" Although the salary is higher when you enter the workshop, it is really ...... that so many people work tirelessly Weird. ”
Young Ye glanced back at him, pointed to his teacup and said, "It's going to be cold." ”
Yang Xiucai lowered his eyes and looked at it, only then did he laugh dumbly, when this tea came up, he forgot to drink it, so he took a sip of tea, and was about to speak, who expected that this Ye boy suddenly said: "Then why do we want to study?" ”
"Ah......" Yang Xiucai was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "We are saints, of course we have to study." ”
Young Ye shook his head and said: "No, we study the Four Books and Five Classics, to put it bluntly, it's just for fame, why do so many people study hard and tirelessly?" In fact, it's just someone who carps jumping over the dragon gate, you see, he is also a scholar, he was still your classmate in the past, but you are still a showman, but he jumped into the Shiji, and since then he has ascended to the Tianzi Hall and become a person on the earth, dare to ask Brother Xian, is this enough to inspire you? ”
