Lin He originally wanted to say, you don’t know how capable you are.
Finally, I thought it was not respectful to his mother.
Just say it in a different way.
But he was not exaggerating, his mother really did a great job.
The two didn't talk for long before Lin He said he was going to the study.
He is very interested in this weekly gift.
It is something that many people cannot read.
"I'm going to the study to read, Hanniang. Ask Xiao Yang to call me when it's time for dinner."
Seeing his anxious look, Li Yu knew that these two books were the right gifts.
April 25th, the 12th year of Jianyuan.
In Qingyan Town of Qingyang Prefecture, two books were suddenly launched that day: the second part of "The Book of Zhou Rites" and "A Must-Have for Candidates".
Especially the Zhou Li. When people learned that the bookstore started selling Zhou Li, everyone was in disbelief.
How is that possible!
This is a book that only appears in rumors, and it is impossible for the bookstore to sell it.
Although most people were skeptical, many people still went to the library with the intention of verifying the facts.
As expected, everyone saw it.
The price of one copy is not low, 6 taels of silver.
These 5 taels may indeed be very expensive for a rural family.
But for ordinary families, it is still acceptable.
The most affordable one is the "Must-have for Candidates" launched by Yunshang Bookstore.
The name was chosen by Li Yu. It is very straightforward but also eye-catching.
It was only 3 taels of silver. Jiang Yueyin said it was too cheap. Such a useful book was not even as expensive as one of Li Yu's storybooks.
A copy of Li Yu's book costs 4 taels.
Besides, she and Yu Shan had actually spent a lot of effort, and Jiang Yueyin's people were running around all over the country looking for test papers.
3 taels is indeed a bit low.
But Li Yu said: "It's not low actually, we can still make money, just a little less.
Some students can’t even afford to buy it with just three taels of silver.”
Jiang Yueyin finally thought about it and it made sense, as long as he didn’t lose money, it would be fine.
I agreed to it. After all, the library was not mine, so it wouldn't be my fault if I made less money.
At the beginning, many scholars were attracted by Zhou Li.
No one has seen the information compiled by Li Yu and others.
It was only after some people flipped through it out of curiosity that they realized the value of this booklet.
Jia Yun is an example.
He was a student from a small village near Qingyan Town.
There are many people in the family, and my uncles and aunts have not divided the family property.
There were dozens of people in the family, and they relied on farming to support their studies, so their family lived a very tight life.
Fortunately, he is now a scholar, which gives his family some hope.
I usually study at Qingcang Academy and try to be frugal as much as possible.
This time I was dragged to the Book Pavilion by a friend who heard that the Book Pavilion had published some good books.
As a result, the two of them saw the Zhou Li and the test paper information.
"This is really Zhou Li. Although we haven't seen it, it is mentioned on the cover of the book.
It was contributed by King Cheng, who printed it in the library and sold it to students.
As expected of your Majesty's cousin, you have truly taken pains for your Majesty's cause."
Listening to his friend's voice, although Jia Yun did not express his opinion, he also agreed.
Their Majesty truly cares about the people and is a good monarch.
The two were very tempted and wanted to buy one, but who knows when it might be out of stock.
Books are something that you can pass on to future generations after you have used them.
Jia Yun didn't have much money in his pocket, so when he left this time, his grandfather gave him 5 taels.
He knew that this was his family's income for most of the year, and he really couldn't afford to buy the book.
His good friend Wei Zhi probably saw his embarrassment.
"Well, I'll buy it, you don't have to buy it, we don't even know if it's real or not.
Let's not waste this money. Let's go back and look at it together and study it together."
Everyone knows that this book cannot be a fake.
If it is fake, which bookstore is crazy enough to dare to use the name of King Cheng.
Jia Yun knew that his friends were doing this for him.
"Brother Wei, thank you very much!"
There is no need to say more, everyone knows it.
"Oh, what are you thanking me for? The prices of books in Yunshang Bookstore are basically all reduced now.
It will only get cheaper in the future, so let's wait and see. At least it won't be so difficult for future generations to study."
Wei Zhi's family lives in the town, and they have no worries about food and clothing.
As for how rich he is, he isn't that rich.
The two of them took the book to the front desk to find the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, how much is this book?"
In their minds, books are very expensive, although the prices of books in Yunshang Book Pavilion are much cheaper than before.
But this book was newly published and not available anywhere else, so the two of them estimated that it was worth about ten taels.
Unexpectedly.
"Six taels."
The shopkeeper’s answer.
When the two heard the price, they couldn't even believe their ears. The price was much higher than their expectations.
"Boss, are you remembering correctly?"
Wei Zhi didn't quite believe it.
"No, this is a new book, how could I remember it wrong?
The price of this book was set by His Majesty the Prince himself, so I won't make a mistake. If you want to buy it, please hurry up."
