Chapter 63: Poverty Alleviation from the Master
Weak Shui had to speak again: "Shopkeeper Hu, my daughter is not joking, I also tell you seriously, we all need these papers, you calculate how much." ”
Weak Xuan nodded her little head heavily: "That's right, I'm not kidding, I want it!" Shopkeeper grandpa, how much silver? ”
In charge of the family's finances, she took out an ingot of ten taels of silver to prove that she was not joking.
Shopkeeper Hu was a little convinced: "Really buy? ”
Weak water nodded: "Really buy." ”
"Nonsense! The paper will turn yellow after a long time. When the time comes, the copied books are like old books, who will buy them? I don't accept it, don't say I didn't advise you! ”
Crazy, right?
They don't look like they're rich!
Because the children's new clothes have not yet been made, the clothes on several children are old, so the shopkeeper Hu didn't expect them to be able to take out ten taels.
"Don't worry! The books we sent to the shopkeeper were definitely new. Weak water assured.
Weak Xuan also nodded: "Shopkeeper Grandpa, in three days, we will be able to send two hundred books over!" ”
Shopkeeper Hu didn't believe it, and at the insistence of the two, weak water left with a large stack of papers.
Shopkeeper Hu didn't dare to sell more, but only sold them ten taels of silver.
That's enough paper for them to copy a year's worth of books!
After the weak family left, the shopkeeper Hu shook his head: "It's really nonsense, five taels of these ten taels of silver are definitely in vain!" ”
At this time, a scholar walked in, listened to the shopkeeper's words and said curiously: "What five taels of silver are wasted?" ”
"It's okay, someone bought ten taels of silver paper and went back to copy the book, do you think it's stupid?"
"Is there such a fool in the world? Didn't he know that the paper began to turn yellow in the first half of the year? ”
The scholar saw that the handwriting on the table was a little familiar, he picked it up and flipped it, the familiar handwriting, the familiar ink fragrance, the familiar fascinating!
Isn't this popular in various academies, making people read the books that were copied on the water side?
He quickly flipped through the remaining nineteen books, and yes, they were all books copied on the water side and the mountains!
It's a pity that the twenty books are copied from the same two books.
"The shopkeeper is on the water side, and the mountain is not high, and you are not in your study to copy books? Why didn't you say it earlier? ”
"He only delivered the book today, and he was so stupid that he bought ten taels of silver and went back to copy the book. They wanted to buy all the paper back and copy the book, but I didn't sell it to them. ”
He's a conscientious shopkeeper!
"Shopkeeper, why don't you sell it? How can ten taels of paper be enough? Shopkeeper, you listen to my advice, next time you come to the water and the mountains, you let them copy more books, as long as they copy different books, I will do it! I want 100 or 200 copies, and it's no problem to copy them on yellowed paper. ”
At this time, a few more scholars walked in, and they happened to hear the name "on the water side".
A few people hurriedly said: "Is there a book here that is not copied on the water side and the mountain?" I want to buy it! ”
"Shopkeeper, I'll buy it too!"
……
All of a sudden, twenty books were snatched up!
Not only that, but half an hour later, groups of students came to the study, all of whom came to buy the books copied by the two of them on the water side and the mountain not on the high school.
found that there was no more, and they rushed to pay the money to place an order!
Shopkeeper Hu looked at the long list of orders that the scholars insisted on signing by themselves, and was silent!
Did he lose his eyes and unknowingly recruit a calligraphy master to copy books from his bookstore?
Is it an insult for him to give the master the price of fifty wen a copy of the book?
He was even surprised that the master could take out ten taels of silver to buy paper just now, and he was worried that his ten taels of silver would be wasted?
The masters have come to his study to help the poor!
Fifty wen to help him copy books in the study, isn't poverty alleviation what is it?

After leaving the study, Weak Water took a few children to Gyeongbok Street to see the mansion rewarded by the government.
The keys to the mansion and the title deed were already in their hands.
When the family came to the door of the mansion, the weak side asked in disbelief: "Dad, this is the mansion that the government rewarded my sister with?" ”
When she got the title deed, Lei Pozi said that this mansion was given to Xuanbao by the government, and it was left to Xuanbao as a dowry in the future.
The family had no problem with that.
Weak: "This house is so big! ”
Weak Hang: "Nonsense, this is the largest mansion in the entire county!" ”
Liu Shi looked at the magnificent vermilion lacquer gate, and also sighed: "This mansion is bigger than the mansion of the Fucheng General's Mansion, right?" ”
Weak Xuan couldn't wait to go in and have a look: "Dad, open the door and let's go in and have a look!" ”
The weak water opened the shiny red vermilion lacquer door, and the family walked in.
Once inside, there is no grandeur of the gate, but a desolation.
The precious flowers and plants planted in the yard were all removed when the house was raided, and because no one took care of it for more than a year, the whole yard was already overgrown with weeds.
Even the roof is covered with grass!
But weak Xuan didn't mind at all, she was the best at planting some flowers and plants in the yard.
However, there are really many houses, a total of five, and the wood used to build the house is also high-quality wood, carved beams and painted buildings, compared to the magnificence of the general's mansion, the design and layout of this house is more simple and atmospheric.
Five into the house, each into the house has a corridor to connect, rain in each house in each house is not afraid of wet.
There is also an artificial lake in the garden, which draws water from the river outside.
Just digging a lake and bringing in water costs people and money.
The weakside asked, "Dad, can we live here after we are in the county seat?" ”
Weak Xuan nodded: "Of course you can!" We went to live in the city during the Chinese New Year. ”
She heard the fox spirit sister say that the New Year city in the world is very lively, and there are lanterns to see during the Lantern Festival.
During the Lantern Festival, she wanted to go into the city to see the lanterns.
Weak Water shook his head: "Although this mansion is rewarded by the imperial court, our identity is not suitable for living. ”
They are just civilians, and it is easy to get into trouble when they live in such a mansion.
To be a man, you wear a hat as big as you have a head.
When Weak Xuan heard this, she asked, "Then what identity do you need to live?" ”
"A mansion of this size can only be lived in by officials above the second grade." Weak water is a little puzzled, such a mansion is said to be only qualified for the emperor to be rewarded, and the county magistrate shouldn't know it!
When Weak Xuan heard this, she immediately said, "Dad, let's go to the academy to sign up for study!" ”
The house can only be seen, not lived, and there is grass everywhere, and the children have no intention of looking at it.
Liu said: "It's almost noon, didn't Xuanbao just say that she wanted to eat Tianxianglou's roast mutton?" Xianggong, you go and pick up my father, how about I take the child to the restaurant first? It's close to the restaurant, so I'll just take the kids and walk there. ”
Weak water is naturally no problem: "Okay! ”
So the husband and wife went their separate ways.
Tianxiang Building is very close, walk out of King Fu Street, turn a corner.
The brothers from the weak family had never been to the restaurant to eat, and when they heard that they could go to the restaurant, they all ran over excitedly.
The Liu family was about to close the door, and the weak boat followed to watch the younger brothers and sisters.
The weak sail ran the fastest, and when it turned, it almost hit a pair of gorgeously dressed mother and son.
Weak Hang hurriedly said, "I'm sorry! ”
The subordinate next to the mother and son saw that the weak air was dressed plainly, and pushed him away: "The stinky boy didn't have long eyes, and he collided with my young master, you can't afford to pay for it!" ”
Weak Hang was pushed by Jiading like this, and the whole person fell to the ground, and his palms were broken.
The weak boat hurriedly ran up, and when he saw the woman, his body stiffened.
Thank you for voting, two more votes! Good night and see you tomorrow!
