Chapter 189: Make those students feel that they are worth the money

Jiang Lili nodded slightly at the scholar, and then took out a store book, recording the scholar's name, age, birthday, and place of origin.

This kind of thing will be recorded in the hotel, and the scholar has no doubts.

Filling in the record, Jiang Lili asked the scholar to choose a room.

The scholar looked at the two long rows of rooms, with the aisles and fences in between.

There is also a whole row of camellia in the empty space in the middle.

This camellia is not only used for beautification, but also to isolate the view between two rooms.

Even if the room is open, it will not be seen by the person on the other side.

In modern times, Jiang Lili lived in such a dormitory with opposite doors.

Sometimes the door is open for ventilation, and someone walks by outside.

So Jiang Lili now has the conditions for herself, so she can naturally do this.

——

The scholar listened to Jiang Lili's words, and was a little surprised.

I was able to choose my own room.

So he walked over to the rooms.

Originally, I thought that a bed in this room would be enough.

But when he saw the furnishings in the room, he was really surprised.

Because everything in it is new.

Even the quilts and stuff are all new.

"These things, please take good care of this son, every few days, someone will come to collect the mattress cover to clean." Jiang Lili gave this Wu Gongzi a brief introduction to the situation.

When Wu Gongzi heard Jiang Lili's words, he immediately wrote them down.

"I can clean this mattress cover myself." Wu Gongzi spoke.

After all, if you can rent such a good room at such a cheap price, such as a mattress cover or something, you should wash it yourself.

"No, we will clean and dry it uniformly, and as for the food, the canteen is not open yet, so I will have someone bring you food." Jiang Lili explained again.

Now that the first person comes, then there will be a second and a third.

Jiang Lili firmly believes that she will definitely make money by doing this.

No, it must be able to help those scholars.

When Wu Gongzi heard this, he immediately responded.

I thought to myself, this place is indeed very good, he can indeed introduce this place back to Xijing, if you want to study in the south, you must go to Liyuan to live for a while.

Of course, he didn't know this idea.

Jiang Lili is now trying to find a way to promote the pear orchard.

I asked Feng Lin to write some advertisements and post them before.

Of course, it's all posted in some alley.

These are the kind of places where scholars go looking for rooms.

In the afternoon of the same day, a few more scholars came.

It's all arranged by the steward.

Since there were already several people renting the dormitory, the cafeteria should be opened.

The chef who opened the canteen had been looking for it a long time ago.

In the past, the farmers used to go to the fields to farm, but now they don't have to go to the fields, as long as they usually maintain these flowers and trees.

And the women only had to help the scholars clean the mattresses and covers.

In fact, this kind of thing can indeed be regarded as idle work for these women.

It's okay in the summer, but it's still quite torturous in the spring and winter.

Anyway, in modern times, she still has a washing machine.

Although Yangzhou is indeed southern, it will snow in winter.

So Jiang Lili thinks that she should find a way to make a wooden barrel washing machine.

It's just that this kind of thing Jiang Lili is just thinking about it, and if she really lets her design it, it may not be successful.

However, she feels that she can't do it, just because others can't do it.

Maybe you can talk to the craftsmen about your thoughts, and they will have ideas.

——

A few days later, Tiande College sent all the seventy-nine names taken by the students.

Jiang Lili checked these names one by one, and felt that these readers were really readers, and the meaning of each name was excellent.

She sent the names to the carpenter, who carved the door sign.

It's easy to distinguish the room when the time comes.

However, in three or five days, more than a dozen people lived in this pear orchard.

This is something that Jiang Lili did not expect at all.

It turns out that there are so many students in Yangzhou.

But it's also.

There will be many students in spring and autumn next year.

Now is the critical time, and Yangzhou has a ship directly to the capital, that is, the departure year ago, that is also in time.

There is still half a year to go, so naturally we have to learn well.

In particular, the city where the two academies of Yuelu Academy and Tiande Academy are located is where these students flock to it.

Jiang Lili originally thought that it would be enough to accept more than 20 people.

Today's pear orchards are not particularly beautiful.

Except for a few lotus flowers, all of them are green leaves.

But now, in just seven or eight days, almost all of these 80 rooms have been rented out.

This is something that Jiang Lili did not expect at all.

Now that it's been rented out, will there be enough room for the next year?

Forget it, these scholars will only live until the end of the year.

It is impossible to stay in Yangzhou all the time.

So by the time of next year, the house price may have to rise a bit.

But it won't go up too much.

You have to make those students feel that they are worth the money.

In addition, there are reasons for price increases.

Not only does she provide room and board, but she also provides books and the like.

Now that he calculates it, in fact, he needs to collect 800 wen a month for each person to not lose money.

Of course, Jiang Lili is not exactly the money of these students who live in the dormitory.

It's the money from those who have the money to visit the park.

And then do a few poetry clubs or something, admission fees and so on.

You will be able to make up for the money.

Making money can't be effective at the beginning.

It's only now that it's just started, and as long as it's not losing too much, then it's a good thing.

What she needs now is to make the pear orchard famous.

Of course, word of mouth is also important.

That is, these scholars who live in the dormitory think that it is good to live in this place, and it is good for the pear orchard.

When the large bookcases were brought into the garden, some scholars came out to help.

Although they didn't know what the big cabinet was for, they had a room that was better than the inn for a fraction of the price.

Of course, these scholars are going to help.

It took four or five days to install the bookcases, tables and chairs.

Then there's the question of books.

Dabong's books are still relatively expensive.

If you want to fill the bookshelves of these two gardens, then Jiang Lili has to spend most of the money in her hand.

This is also the reason why people who read books burn more money.

It's all because of this book, it's absolutely real money.

And paper and ink are expensive.

Jiang Lili thought that she might be able to make her own paper and ink.

Then print the book yourself, although it is a bit more cumbersome, but it saves a lot of money than buying a book.

In addition, Feng Lin and they have a wide range of connections, so it is naturally easy to help Jiang Lili find someone who can make paper.

However, Jiang Lili still spent money to buy some books first, and the books came back and put them on this shelf.

Jiang Lili's book house is not just a popular book in Jiangnan.

What she needed was books for the entire Dafeng Eleven Mansions.

After this was confirmed, Jiang Lili had more things on hand.

I spent more time away from the house.

Jiang Rou'er saw that Jiang Lili was busy every day.

Naturally, I wanted to find a way to help.

But she is just a woman, and she doesn't know what she can do to help Jiang Lili.

Sometimes Jiang Rouer really admires Jiang Lili.

I think she's a woman who has so many things to do.

Jiang Lili does have a lot of things to do at this time, and there are not enough people around her.

Just Feng Lin, Xu Lian and Lu Yang were also busy.

Lu Yang was in charge of supervising the work and watched the people who built the houses.

Feng Lin was in charge of helping her find someone.

Xu Lian followed her to facilitate her summons.
