Zhu Di listened, looked at Yishu and said, "What? ”

Yishu said: "Many people heard that His Majesty took a hundred officials to the library, and they heard that Master Xie Jin was going to stay there for some days, and many people ...... Smell the wind and move......"

After a pause, Yizha continued: "Not only in this Nanjing city, but also in the nearby states and counties, some people have heard the rumors. ”

"And ...... And I heard that there are many strange books in them, which can cure the plague, but everyone who knows the words wants to see them. ”

Although there are many nerds in this world who have bad brains.

But historically, in this land, the vast majority of people are still practical.

No matter how much people despise miscellaneous science, they will never ignore this book of epidemic prevention that can save countless lives.

In fact, many people who read books have the habit of reading medical books, and many people also like to grab medicine for themselves, of course...... There are many who have themselves put themselves to death.

Isn't it a huge treasure now that such a strange book has appeared in the library?

You can get in for a few pennies, and the price can be said to be extremely low.

And I heard that the environment is still very good, and the literary atmosphere is very heavy, so many famous Confucians are looking for books there.

In addition, books are treasures for people of this era, and some people have even exaggerated that they have a collection of 100,000 books.

What is the concept of a 100,000 book collection?

I'm afraid that the royal collection of books can't be compared.

So, people with all kinds of thoughts rushed up.

At this time, if there is anything else to say, of course, I will also go and join in the fun.

He knew His Majesty's mind and attached great importance to this library.

What's more, Your Majesty only went there yesterday, and today's movement is so big, just to invite merit.

So he said colorfully: "There are people everywhere, and the docks are blocked, but ...... The slave maid heard about it...... Cheng Enbo's newly expanded library area 2 also took this opportunity to open today. I heard that there are still ...... Lots of novelties. ”

The more Zhu Di listened, the brighter the light in his eyes became, and he couldn't help but say, "Why didn't he tell me about these things before?" ”

Yisha smiled and said, "Once...... The slave maid also asked this question. ”

Zhu Di put his hands behind his back, looked up and said, "What did he say?" ”

Yizha looked at Zhu Di's expression carefully, and then said: "Cheng Enbodao, Your Majesty still doesn't know about the business." ”

This can be described as bold, I don't know it, isn't this a bully?

I saw that Yizha continued: "Your Majesty, this Cheng Anbo is thinking about Your Majesty, who is Your Majesty, and how can he be involved in the business and sale?" It's all ...... The guy down there did it. ”

Zhu Di snorted, obviously very satisfied, and said with a smile: "This kid is thinking carefully, but I am not afraid to say, I did not oppress the people, did not increase taxes, but made up for the lack of internal funds, who dares to talk nonsense?" ”

"Besides, the silver I took out from the treasury has relieved the burden on the treasury, and if you dare to attack it, there is a good chance that you will be a wrongdoer, and it must be the remnants of the Northern Yuan."

Yisha said: "Your Majesty said yes. ”

However, at this time, Zhu Di heard that there were many new things, and he was still interested, so he said: "This kid is like me, dare to think and dare to do, he is really a talent, you ...... You will personally inquire with me, and tell me the truth when the time comes. ”

Yisha didn't dare to slack off, and immediately said: "The slave and maid will go." ”

Zhu Di couldn't help but be happy when he saw Yishuha retreating in a hurry: "Damn it...... New Trading ...... Scholars have a lot of money, tsk......"

When Empress Xu saw Zhu Di's happy appearance, she couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Majesty, people outside say that Zhang Anshi is acting dissolutely, but when the concubines look at it, they feel more and more that he is safe and thorough. ”

"It's nature." Zhu Di said with a bit of pride and pride: "In the past, he was notorious, that was because he didn't meet me, but now that he has met me, wouldn't it be safe for me to train one or two?" ”

After that, his waist straightened: "As for his marriage, wait a little longer." Now is not the time to get married, this man is married, and he is asking for his name, as well as Najib, Nazheng, invitation, and personal welcome, after the six wedding ceremonies, he finally became a parent, and he still needs to bring the bride back to Ningning, not to mention the cumbersome things such as visiting his aunt and seeing him in the temple. You don't know how much money he earns a day. ”

Empress Xu nodded, and then said: "In short, the marriage is decided, as long as it is decided, the concubines are not in a hurry." Jingyi, a child, has a strong temperament, and she knows it. ”

Zhu Di bowed his head: "Relax, I know in my heart." ”

As he spoke, he frowned, narrowed his eyes at the same time, looked around, and said, "I always feel ...... I came to Ouchi, and in this Ouchi, there are always people watching me......"

Empress Xu smiled: "Your Majesty is too worried. ”

Zhu Di said: "This is not good, damn it, how can this big inside seem to be a thief." ”

Although he was scolded, Zhu Di did not continue to ask, he still needed to summon Qiu Fu and others, ready to continue to discuss Annan's military affairs, so he said goodbye to Queen Xu and turned around and went busily.

…………

At this time, Qixia, which was already lively, is not an exaggeration to say that it is an empty alley.

This Jiangnan has always been rich and has many scholars.

After the news spread, many people were moved.

In fact, this is also understandable, on the one hand, people do know the value of libraries.

On the other hand, that Li Wensheng, who only read one book, actually cured the plague.

He's just a mere showman, and now he's ...... Listen to the heavens, and think that the court will have a reward in the near future.

What's more, His Majesty and the hundred officials have already been here, and they are full of praise for this place.

Therefore, not only the scholars in Nanjing City, but also the nearby Zhenjiang and other places, who heard the rumors, also wanted to come and take a look.

After several months of renovation, several new main and annex buildings of the library have been erected and renovated.

Not only that, but the blue brick road in front of the door has also been paved all the way to the pier, even if it rains, there is no trouble with mud.

Along the road, many trees are planted, and there are special flower beds, all of which are specially hired to take care of them, and they are pruned every once in a while.

Every other section of the road, there are gazebos, or a fake stone, which is equivalent to moving the rockery pavilions in many large mansions to both sides of the road.

The people who came here all smacked their tongues and their faces were surprised.

Not only that, but there are also some shops along the way.

These shops are not as chaotic as other places, as if they were specially planned, and they sell mostly supplies for readers.

There is even a newsstand that sells newspapers.

Early in the morning, not long after the first sun came out.

There are special personnel who organize and start cleaning the roads, whether it is fallen leaves or other debris, all must not appear on the road, spotless.

There was a light rain today, and the drizzle fell on the earth, soaking the flowers and trees beside the road, and the air was exceptionally fresh.

Many readers walk into it and can't help but feel refreshed.

It's definitely a big deal, and God knows how much money was spent.

Those who have a lot of books at home, only feel that this is the same as their own home, and there is a pond not far away, and there are lotus leaves in the pond.

There is a trestle bridge on the pond, which can be passed to a pavilion in the middle of the lake for people to rest, and at this time it can be seen that groups of people are watching the scenery on the pavilion.

As for the family background, it can only be regarded as a solid scholar who comes here, but it is a different scene, they are like Grandma Liu who has entered the Grand View Garden, they only feel that everything is fresh, and they can't see enough of everything.

And most importantly...... No money here, it's completely open.

With such a large garden, you don't have to pay a penny.

This is unthinkable in this era.

It is said that there are several roads leading to Qixia here, and there are many landscapes in this Qixia Mountain, and they have also opened mountain roads and built trestle bridges, and the scenery there is better.

"I heard that it cost tens of thousands of taels of silver."

"Tut-tut......"

The gardens of the Ming Dynasty have actually matured for a long time, but only the extremely wealthy people buy them in their own mansions.

But like here, so magnificent, willing to pay for it, it's really unimaginable.

Yisha came to Qixia, and then hurried to the library, but saw that there were really people everywhere, everyone had different accents, fortunately, most of them were readers, but no one made a loud noise, and people poured into the library, one by one.

There is also a special roadside sign to guide people to the new building, and a sign is also hung: "Today's Minglun Hall activity, ten poems are selected." ”

Sure enough, everyone looked at the sign and went to the building of the Minglun Hall.

This Minglun Hall is newly built and covers a large area, but it has long been crowded with people.

At this time, I saw that someone began to read out the selected poem.

After reading, the ten poems selected here began to be hung, and many readers shook their heads to taste, and some people said: "This poem is quite neat, but the charm is a little worse, and this one is also ......."

"yes, that's what was chosen?"

"This is written by Liu Juren of Nanjing City, I have seen this person, but I didn't expect his poem to be selected."

It was discovered that not only the poems were posted here, but the authors of the poems were also written.

This can't help but make people's eyes and ears hot.

What do readers want, isn't it just a reputation? In addition to being an official, who doesn't want to be a talent?

What's more, the quality of the selected poems can only be said to be medium to high.

"I heard that this is a poem collected a few days ago, but not many people paid attention to it at that time, and there were not many people who wanted to submit a poem manuscript, so the poems selected were both excellent and mediocre. I also heard that if you choose ten poems every month, if you are selected, you will not only be given silver, but also hang the poems in this library. And every year the library will compile a book of poems, and all the poems selected that year will be included. ”

"Really?" Someone is starting to get excited.

If your poems can be selected, won't you be famous all over the world?

In the past month, how many people have flowed, and they are all readers!

Moreover, in the future, when a book of poems is published, this title will be spread longer and farther.

Making poetry, although it is just a means of entertainment for readers, is not the right way, but it can't stand up to it to be famous, and may even go down in history, which is not small.

Many people were so interested that they began to search their stomachs.

"I heard that there are not only poems, but also eight shares, and every month, this library will issue questions, and then let people submit, and then select ten excellent works, which are the same as poems. Over there...... There is also an arithmetic competition, once a month, and there are many rewards if you can get out on top. ”

Listening to everyone's discussion and conversation, I couldn't help but think, what kind of name is this Ann Shi doing?

But I saw that many scholars listened to other people's conversations, and they all danced with their hands, and they were very happy.

How do eunuchs like Yisha know that the essence of various competitions is to mobilize the emotions of readers, and it is no longer just a library open to readers, but it has become an interaction between each other.

In this way, everyone is more willing to participate, and the people who participate are looking forward to being selected every day, and the selected people have actually become the signboard of the library, a walking advertisement.

Once this interaction is formed, the library is not just a library, but also an information center for readers.

Once you can't keep an eye on the trends of the library, it means that you can't fit into the circle of readers, so you won't be ostracized.

I just feel ...... Everything here is spending money, and it's spending money like water.

Just to earn a few pennies for these readers, this ...... It's a real loss.

He felt sorry for His Majesty.

On the side of the road, another scholar muttered: "There is a big lecture hall over there, if you would hire a great Confucian to teach every day, today it is the great Confucian Li Xiyan who teaches in person." ”

"Emperor?"

"Nature."

"Oh, that's going to be heard."

"I heard that only 500 people can go, and you need to register a day in advance, so I'm afraid we missed it today."

"It's a pity, it's a pity......"

"There will be tomorrow, it is rumored that it is the wine of the country's priest, oh, the day after tomorrow it will be Xie Jin...... Scholar of Wenyuankaku University ......"

For a moment, the crowd boiled.

This is something that most people would never dare to think about in their lifetime.

Invite people to give lectures every day, if you simply say that there is bias, this is not right, although Li Xiyan has recently written a few books, which makes many readers feel a little deviant.

But at least the library is fair, and people should know about it!

In this way, you can't find fault with anything, anyway, no matter who is here, it is also unattainable for everyone to listen to one of his classes.

"Do you need money for this lesson?"

"I haven't heard of it."

"Oh my God...... Is there such a good thing in the world? ”

"yes, I think it's incredible."

The more he listened, the more unbelievable he felt, and when he saw these scholars, they were all crazy, as if this place was ...... It's really like a fairyland on earth in their minds, and they can't help but smile bitterly in their hearts.

has been going all the way like this, but Yisha's heart is getting more and more disappointed.

This place, it doesn't make money.

It's not bad if you don't lose money.

Seeing the crowds here, Yisha felt that there might be no less than 30,000 people here.

And there are a lot of people who haven't come in.

There's no place to put your feet down.

He didn't have the heart to stay any longer, so he hurried out before he let out a long breath.

only found that it was not only scholars who came here, but also many businessmen wearing cloth clothes.

The merchants could only wear cloth clothes, not silk, but they had silver, and they heard that there were many heroes here, and many of them came to join in the fun.

Of course, even businessmen are dressed in scarves and shirts.

They have a lowly status, but it is precisely because of their lowly status that they inevitably want to be vassal.

Therefore, many people come here, not to focus on the books here, but to read them one by one.

Many scholars are famous, their status is not low, and they may even enter the imperial examination in the future, and if they deal with each other in advance, there will be a lot of benefits in the future.

Yisha came out of the library out of breath, still a little unhappy in his heart.

I only look at the money, but I don't see the money.

With a depressed mood, he walked forward, raised his eyes and looked around, but saw that not far from the library, there were many people around.

There was even the sound of firecrackers.

He was stunned for a moment, walked quickly, and hurriedly walked over, and saw that many people stopped here, and he also surrounded him.

I finally squeezed in, and I saw a big signboard hanging with a book...... Qixia School Palace four words.

This...... What kind of name is it?

He couldn't understand for a while, this school palace, isn't it a school?

The library costs money, and so does the school palace.

Something is wrong with this Nexperia recently, why do you just want to do good deeds?

Sighing sullenly in his heart, seeing that it was not too early, he was in a hurry to go back to his life, so he hurried back to the palace.

It's just that the people who stayed here refused to disperse, and they were still talking.

"Such a small house? Just a small hall, a study, plus two bedrooms, and a firewood room, it costs a thousand taels of silver? It's better to grab it! ”

"The place in Nanjing City close to the inner city is only this price, isn't it a joke?"

"I think it's crazy to think about silver."

"It's quite close to the library, and when you go out, it's this garden......"

Many people are still talking, some are shaking their heads, some are sighing, and some are interested.

Zhu Jin came out and said with a smile: "Don't miss it, our Qixia place is small, relying on this library is only a few steps away, a thousand taels of silver, you can't buy a loss, you can't be fooled, everyone, everyone, do you know how much silver it costs to live in Qixia's inn for a month?" At least seven or eight taels of silver, this year, it is close to a hundred taels of silver, why? ”

He paused, then continued in vigour, "Not many people have to go to the library to read yet! The sea of learning is endless, living in Qixia, this library is equivalent to your home, dare to ask...... Do you have such a collection of books at home? It's not easy to come here from Nanjing, not to mention, there are many people from other states and counties, not to mention the long distance, what should I do if I encounter a gangster? ”

"If you can live here, it's different, you can study here with peace of mind, and you can be neighbors with Confucianism here! Isn't there a sentence that is good to say? There is no silk and bamboo, there is no case of labor, there is a lot of talk and laughter, and there is no white ding. This house, don't look expensive, it's actually a big sale at a loss. ”

He shouted hard, and said: "I told you the truth, Li Xiyan and Hu Yan's second duke have already purchased ...... here."

He shouted hysterically.

However, there are many people who watch, but none of them really stand up.

At this moment, Zhu Jin was a little angry.

Finally, a man stood up timidly and said, "One thousand taels, I don't have so much silver with me." ”

When Zhu Jin heard this, he immediately shook his spirits and said kindly: "Come on, come on, dare to ask your name." ”

This human: "The surname is Zhang, and the name is Wenfu." ”

Zhu Jindao: "Zhang Wenfu, good name, good name, in fact, you don't have to pay a thousand taels of silver immediately." Here in our school palace, you can place a deposit of dozens of taels first, and then go back to raise silver to buy and sell. Not only that, but if the money is not enough, it doesn't matter, we are here in cooperation with the money bank, and we are allowed to borrow. The interest rate of this loan is low, this interest is only three cents per year, and the interest is borrowed eight hundred taels, and the interest is slowly repaid every month is only twenty-four taels of silver. If it is twenty years, every year, it is only about fifty taels of silver, as long as this house is used to make an offset. ”

This person named Zhang Wenfu has a very solid family background, after all, he is a scholar.

On the one hand, there are too many people living in the inn here, the people in the inn are too noisy, and the price of the inn is not expensive, he is not alone after all, there are two servants and a maidservant.

But if you live in Nanjing City, from Nanjing City to the library, a day round trip, but it takes more than an hour, then it will be delayed a lot of effort, his family is a big family in Hangzhou, a thousand taels of silver is nothing, as long as a book is repaired, the family can always find a way to send silver.

It's just that scholars stay in their hometowns to study, after all, there is no access, only the capital, whether it is for exams or reading, it is convenient.

After thinking about it, it's just a thousand taels of silver, and it's not a big deal to send a house anyway.

When he heard this interest, Zhang Wenfu was stunned, and then said: "Only three percent? ”

"Nature." Zhu Jin said with a smile.

This three percent interest is impossible in any bank, in fact, nine out of thirteen are honest, and even more ruthless is donkey rolling.

People like Zhang Wenfu, whose family is rich, know the doorway here best.

So he hurriedly said: "Is it really three cents? After a year, the interest of 800 taels is only 24 taels of silver, and it can be repaid for 20 years? ”

Zhu Jin patted his chest and said, "The old man opened the door to do business, can he still deceive you?" ”

Zhang Wenfu said in his heart, don't you know the market, don't you know what this external loan looks like?

No one could have imagined that Zhang Wenfu didn't even hesitate much, so he said very proudly: "Then I will buy ten, there are many people in my clan, and there are more than a dozen children." ”

All of a sudden, many of the people around were in an uproar.

At first, everyone just watched the excitement, but now they really saw that they were wronged, and they suddenly boiled.

10 ......

This man can't be a fool, right?

Many people are suspicious.

There are even people who have crossed their ears.

"Maybe they're in a group, this is white silver, with this silver, what is it bad to buy?"

"It's the pole, it's the pole."

"I'll wait and see how they act, these merchants are really hateful, for the sake of silver...... I really don't want to lose my face. ”

After Zhang Wenfu finished speaking, he went directly to pay the deposit.

Of course...... A rich boy like him actually has no concept of silver.

Anyway, I don't feel distressed, after all, it's my father's silver.

On the spot, he directly asked his servants to take out more than two hundred taels of silver that he had brought with him.

"Okay, in a few days, you will pay the final payment, oh, if you want to borrow, go to the money bank to go through the procedures."

Zhu Jin's face was pleased.

Zhang Wenfu listened to it and happily walked over the crowd.

He's happy.

Many people laughed, only thinking that this Zhang Wenfu was really stupid.

It was a person who recognized Zhang Wenfu, and he also beat his chest and chased after him and persuaded him: "Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, you are confused, such a small house, and it is not in Nanjing City, this price ...... Even in the inner city of Nanjing, you can buy a house. ”

"It's cheap." Zhang Wenfu didn't think much about it and said: "One thousand taels of silver, you can borrow eight hundred taels, and the interest is low." Two hundred taels of silver can buy a house, and it only costs fifty taels a year. ”

His friend was so angry that he was about to stomp his feet: "Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, you ...... You...... You are really too confused, you dare to believe such a bad businessman! Such people...... Eat people without spitting out bones, have you seen that merchant? This person's surname is Zhu ...... I inquired about this person, this person is from a brother firm, do you know who this brother firm is related to? ”

Zhang Wenfu said: "It can't be Zhang Anshi's black-hearted, book-selling bastard Wang Ba." ”

"Hey, you guessed it right." The friend's body shook.

Zhang Wenfu: "......"

"Look, you're going to be surnamed Zhang again, let me ask you, how much money did your family spend on buying the book surnamed Zhang?"

Zhang Wenfu remembered those bad memories and said bitterly: "It's still cheap, it only cost seven hundred taels." ”

"Fuck." The man gritted his teeth and said, "I spent 1,100 taels, this unconscionable thing." ”

Zhang Wenfu was also angry: "It turned out to be him, why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

"Hey......" this friend kindly reminded: "At that time, everyone was watching, I was afraid that if I stood up, the minions surnamed Zhang would beat people, listen to my advice, or retire the house quickly." ”

Zhang Wenfu was silent for a while, and said; "Don't retreat, I'll bring the silver tomorrow, and set ten more houses."

The friend was immediately very angry, glared at him and said, "Ah...... This...... You ......"

Zhang Wenfu said: "The book surnamed Zhang can be sold so expensive, so calculated, I can buy a book from him, I can buy a house, he is such a black-hearted, lack of virtue to bubble the person, I think...... I think...... This house is also a thousand taels, and if you buy it at this time, you shouldn't be at a loss. ”

"You...... You...... Isn't that aiding and abetting? ”

Zhang Wenfu calmed down and said: "If you are going to be pitted by this kind of person, you might as well want to open it a little." Besides, my family has some money, and if I repair a letter, my father will send me money. ”

Zhang Wenfu said, grinning, happy!
