As for Qu Xiangbai's identity, Li Yu no longer wanted to ask. Generally speaking, people who don't show their true faces and open a bookstore in this small and remote town are either big shots or very powerful ones.
It has nothing to do with her.
Thinking of this, Li Yu thought of another question: "Does our Yunshang Book Pavilion have one in every prefecture or even small county?"
"That's right, but it's only available in the prefectural capital, not in the small county towns. As for our Qingyan Town, it's because Ah Xiang once studied at the Qingcang Academy outside the city.
So, sister, you, the chef god, have earned more than this, but other stores only share the profits at the end of the year." Chen Zongwen explained.
Li Yu ignored the rest. She only heard that other bookstores would give her a share at the end of the year.
Wow, she posted it.
She made a fortune.
The children were also surprised. How much money could their mother make?
Several people were speechless.
"So, Qu Xiangbai has been in a library outside the city?" Li Yu was curious.
"He's not always out of town. In fact, most of the time he's in the library of Qingyang Mansion. As for his identity, let him tell you, Sister Li, when he has the chance." Chen Zongwen explained.
Li Yu thought to himself: I don’t want to know. In ancient times, if you knew too many secrets, you wouldn’t live long.
Seeing that they had almost finished talking, Chen Zongwen began to calculate the share of the profits for the past two months with Li Yu.
"The New Year is coming soon, sister, let me calculate the share for you." After saying that, she took out a stack of account books and showed them to Li Yu.
Li Yu was shocked: "So many?"
"Like I said, there's also the share from other stores. It's the end of the year now, so let's settle it all together."
…
It will take a long time to see so much.
Moreover, Li Yu still believed in Chen Zongwen and Qu Xiangbai.
She said, "Okay, okay, I trust you and Qu Xiangbai. Don't look at the account book, just give me the money."
Chen Zongwen asked Li Yu if he really didn't want to watch it?
"No," Li Yu replied. The ancient account books were so complicated that his eyes were dizzy after reading them.
In this case, Chen Zongwen took out an abacus and started counting. After a while, he looked up and told her that she could get 1,500 taels of silver.
How many?
Li Yu thought he was hallucinating. In fact, not only Li Yu, but also Lin Hai and his two siblings thought they might be hallucinating. Yang Liu thought that 1,500 taels seemed like a fairy tale.
She had never heard of so much silver in her life. How much was it?
How does my mother-in-law make so much money?
After Li Yu's repeated confirmation, everyone knew that they had not heard wrongly, and their mother really got more than 1,500 taels of silver.
Only when he got the banknote in his hand did Li Yu come to his senses.
I am already a rich woman.
When she had no money before, she wanted a lot of money.
Now her storybooks are selling for a lot of money, but it seems that's all.
As for why, Li Yu couldn't figure it out.
If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Having money is a good thing anyway.
She can do a lot of things, such as Lin He's imperial examination and Lin Hai's restaurant, which might be developed into a restaurant in the future.
Lin Mei's sweater shop and wool factory.
Her second son's movable type printing.
She wants to do it, she wants to do it all.
Even if she selfishly uses modern technology to benefit her children, so what? While benefiting her children, she is also benefiting many people.
It provides jobs for many people, allows ordinary people to wear warm sweaters even without cotton, and saves scholars from having to pay more money to buy a book.
It can even allow students from farming families to afford books.
Li Yu suddenly felt that he seemed to have discovered the meaning of coming to this strange world.
Li Yu admitted that he cheated, but it didn't matter. Whether it was printing or wool sweaters, even if he was not the first to invent them, he was the one who brought them to this era.
As long as it's useful, as long as I can profit, and as long as others can benefit, what's wrong with that?
She is just selfish.
You can only help others when you are strong enough.
If you want to help others when you don't have the ability yourself, that is just empty talk and will hurt both others and yourself.
She is rich now, and when Lin He passes the exam, she will be able to do it.
