Chapter 214: Expensive Borrowing Fees

"These two people are newcomers who came in with a special quota, right? I remember that it was Tuofei, the son of Prime Minister Tuo!"

"Well, that's right, the other one is called Lintian, a few days ago, I saw it in Fengxuan Tower, but he has some talent, Jiuxiao Dragon's poetry, he wrote it. ”

"Hmph, these two people are really good, but it's a pity, they are just a newcomer in this Hanlin Academy, and they shouldn't know the 'price' of the library, and they will be dumbfounded after a while. ”

At this time, the surrounding discussions gradually rose, and there were doubts about the amount of books borrowed by you and Tuofei, but the two people involved still didn't notice anything.

The gentleman at the registration office looked at the two of them, and then a smile appeared on his face, which was very amiable, and gave Lintian and the two of them a very good feeling.

"Bring your books up, and I'll register you, but before I do that, I'll ask you again. ”

"Sir, excuse me. Lintian and Tuofei replied together.

The two of them didn't think much about the other party's question, and casually agreed.

The gentleman nodded, "Well, are you sure you really want to borrow so many books?"

Lintian and Tuofei nodded, and Lintian understood in his heart that it might be that he and Tuofei had taken a lot of books, so Mr. was suspicious.

"Yes sir, we are preparing for this year's lifting exam, so be prepared to borrow more at a time to save time. ”

"I see, but do you know that this borrowing is expensive, are you sure?" asked the gentleman again.

For this question, Tuofei smiled confidently, he has been worried a lot since he was a child. For example, I am not handsome enough. Or maybe you can't drink on your own. However, when it comes to money, he is the least worried.

He looked at the man and said, "Sir, don't worry, we are sure that these books are going to be borrowed, and the money is not a problem, so you can register and count the money!"

After Tuofei said this, he smiled confidently and looked up to the sky, very proud. This gives people the feeling that Lao Tzu is rich, and I am afraid of whom.

Seeing Tuofei's answer, the middle-aged gentleman's eyes became brighter, and then without saying a word, he quickly asked the people behind him to start registering and counting money.

After a while, a lot of people came to watch, in fact, Lintian and Tuofei may not know that the amount of books they borrowed may be the most in recent years.

So at this moment, even the second floor was alarmed.

"These two are crazy. How many books are borrowed?"

"yes, although the books on this level are relatively cheap. But it's not as cheap as I imagined, it's just relative, looking at their weight, it is estimated that they can borrow a sage chapter for a month!"

"Hmph, look at it, wait a minute, these two people should be dumbfounded. ”

While everyone was talking, the person who registered suddenly said, "Are you two bills, or gold and silver?"

"Haha, of course it's gold and silver, I'm not going out with a few thousand taels, it's uncomfortable, how much?" Tuofei said extremely confidently, going out with a few thousand taels, it's really not a small amount.

However, at this time, the people who came to see the excitement looked at his expression, but they were not surprised, but shook their heads for a while.

"Oh that's good, these books can be borrowed for you to read for a month, a total of 120,000 taels!" the man said calmly.

"What, 120,000 taels? Well, it's really expensive, then I don't have so much cash, so I'll give you a silver ticket." ”

Tuofei didn't expect the price of this book to be so expensive, but 120,000 taels of silver, he thought there was still it, but when he took out the silver ticket, another voice came.

"Oh, I'm exactly, 120,000 taels of gold!"

"What!gold!Why don't you grab it!~" Tuofei, who had been calm at this time, suddenly shouted loudly.

He originally thought it was 120,000 taels of silver, but he could still pay it, after all, Lintian couldn't make money for the time being, and he didn't have any money, so he was also a rich man.

But after hearing the price here, he was dumbfounded, he never thought that the price of borrowing books in this bookstore was surprisingly expensive, although these popular books, although they borrowed a little more, but no matter how they thought about it, it was impossible to reach 120,000 taels of gold.

Tuofei was a little anxious, "You guys are the study building of the Hanlin Academy, I think it's a bandit, it's so expensive?"

Lintian didn't lose his temper, but his question was the same as Tuofei's, it was true, if it was a sage chapter or an academic school book, borrow it and take a look, and spend more than 100,000 taels.

But the books I choose at the moment are all relatively popular, even if you don't read them in the Hanlin Academy, you can see them when you go outside and look for them carefully.

So Lintian is also very puzzled, why are the books here so expensive, and they are only the price of borrowing books.

The gentleman at the registration office looked at Tuofei, his eyes narrowed slightly, "I asked you just now, you said that you have money, and you are sure to borrow it, but this price, Hanlin Academy has always been like this." ”

At this time, Lintian finally understood why this gentleman had been so kind, and it turned out to be a mouthy lamb.

Tuofei was a little unconvinced, and said, "Hundreds of thousands of taels of gold! Is your book also made of gold?"

Mr. chuckled, looked at Tuofei, as if he had seen a small vault, his eyes lit up, "Hehe, it's a little expensive, but I can say very seriously, they are worth the price, I know who you are, the son of the Prime Minister's family, right, hehe, when the prime minister of the dynasty, it is impossible not to even have this money, right?"

Tuofei's face turned red at this time, to be honest, if it was tens of thousands of taels of silver, he did have it, but 120,000 taels of gold, which was a relatively large amount.

He has spent a lot of money since he was a child, but this amount may be enough for him to spend extravagantly and wastefully for a year, but here, he can only borrow a few broken books and read them for a month.

Maybe anyone here thinks it's impossible, and they won't pay for it. Even Lintian felt that if this was really the case, he would rather go outside to find a book to read.

He was originally shy in his pocket, and the only one thousand taels some time ago also bought a copy of "Daxuan Classics", and the money he borrowed from the book today was also prepared to borrow it from Tuofei.

But at this time, when he looked at such a price, he also felt that it was time to change his strategy.

However, Lintian still has a doubt, that is, even with such an expensive borrowing fee, why is there so many people borrowing books in the building of the Hanlin Academy, and most of the people are not newcomers, they all seem to be old people from the Hanlin Academy.

It is impossible for them not to know the price of the Hanlin Academy, but why are they still willing to come and borrow books?

Tuofei's face was not very good at this time, he wanted to pretend to be a rich man and be majestic in front of everyone, but all the money on his body was here, and together, maybe 100,000 taels of gold was not enough, but he had already put the words out before, if he didn't borrow it, it would be too shameless.

And his money is the recent living expenses given to him by Prime Minister Tuo, before leaving, Prime Minister Tuo said that the deadline for the examination is to raise people, and before being admitted to the people, if the money is used up in advance, there is no need to ask him for it again, because over the years, Tuofei has spent too much money in the 'land of fireworks', so the prime minister has to control him well.

Tuofei gritted his teeth, looked at the man, and said, "You, I think your book is a popular product, but you can tell me, where is it worth 120,000 taels of gold? If you don't give an explanation, I won't be able to spend this money!" )
