Chapter 210: The Eighth Mission - The New Five Immortals 14(1/2)
Because Mo Yiyi was rich, he bought all the land he needed before the evil demons could react.
Therefore, Mo Yiyi started to carry out drastic measures such as planting trees, digging mountains and filling pits, digging lakes and mountains, etc. No one could stop her!
Because these projects require a lot of manpower, people from nearby towns came to look for a job after hearing about it!
Because there are so many people coming, Huiyang County is now full of people, and there is a lively scene everywhere!
Mo Yiyi stood in the city, watching the sparrows flying in groups in the sky, and counting the number of evil spirits mixed in among them.
Well, there are dozens of sparrows, but there are more than a dozen evil demons mixed in. It can be seen that the number of these evil demons has not decreased!
Huiyang County is like this. There is no place for these evil spirits to show off. They haven't left yet and are still hanging around in Huiyang County. They must have plans for Huiyang County!
But Mo Yiyi doesn't know the specific situation yet.
But for the sake of the safety of the people in Huiyang County, she really should step up her efforts!
What Mo Yiyi meant by increasing efforts was to continue throwing money!
Of course, throwing money this time is different from throwing money before.
This time, by spending money, Mo Yiyi directly purchased the largest restaurant in the county, and then spent half a month renovating it into a three-story bookstore!
This bookstore does not sell books, but it collects a large number of lost documents and even calligraphy and painting calligraphy by famous people!
The value of this bookstore is particularly high, and the books inside make all the readers who have seen it go crazy.
Moreover, the rules for the opening of this bookstore are also very interesting.
When you come here for the first time, if you want to enter the bookstore and read a book, you must exchange it for a book written by yourself.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s a storybook, a collection of poems, or a copy of an ancestor’s masterpiece, as long as it’s written by myself, it can be used as a stepping stone to enter the bookstore!
Moreover, the books in the book store have been soaked in special potions. They are invulnerable to water and fire and are very strong. Even if they get dirty accidentally, just wash them in water and you are not afraid of accidentally breaking them. The books in the book store are still
If scholars are willing to copy books by themselves, the copied books will be considered their own!
This situation almost drives the readers who know this bookstore crazy.
What's more, every once in a while, the bookstore will replace a new batch of ancient books, calligraphy and painting, celebrity calligraphy, giving people a refreshing and fresh feeling in real time!
If money can bring businessmen, then these rare and excellent ancient books and celebrity calligraphy and paintings can attract a large number of scholars.
Scholars have a high status in the mortal world. This is not only because scholars can take scientific examinations and become officials, but more importantly, they read the books of sages. People with great righteousness in their hearts can be immune to all evil and avoid evil demons!
This is because there is a spirit in the book, which is a powerful god. He is the cultural deposit of all dynasties, the aspiration of many students who read the books of sages, and a pure land that protects the mortal world. It is intangible but tangible.
existence.
It is said that when Wenchang was at its peak, the students gathered in an academy could guarantee that the city would be immune to all evil. But later on, Wenchang declined and evil spirits rose, suppressing the gathering of righteousness in the mortal world, and the powerful god's divine power was sharp.
Minus, in the end it can only ensure that major cities are not invaded by weak demon gods.
Calculating the time, it seems that the time of Wenchang's decline was exactly when the Western Continent fell and the Eastern Continent had no time to take care of itself.
At that time, evil gods appeared among the people, the mortal population dropped sharply, and the mortal saints fell one after another...
Mo Yiyi's bookstore soon attracted the attention of mortal students, followed by some famous scholars.
Although this news came from a remote small county town, the book store in that small county town was rumored to be so miraculous. Now some good people or book lovers came one after another, hoping that this unreliable rumor would be real!
Fortunately, Mo Yiyi did not disappoint these people. Famous paintings, ancient books, various masterpieces of sages and even handwritten copybooks and books all made these people fascinated and forgetful!
It's just that the bookstore has regulations. It opens at Yin time in the morning and closes at You time. No matter who wants to stay in the bookstore, they can't do it, no matter how famous the person is or how high his status is!
Of course, there were many people who wanted to buy some precious ancient books, and even the greeting cards sent to the doorsteps of the Mo family every day began to be packed in big baskets, but Mo Yiyi never let go.
If you want to read a book, go to a bookstore.
If you want to take it home, you can write it down by hand, but buying or selling it is absolutely not allowed!
The reason given by Mo Yiyi is also very official, that is, among literati, it is tacky not to talk about money, but to talk about money!
Even as if she wanted to prove this point, Mo Yiyi later provided a batch of Four Treasures of the Study to the bookstore, all of which were treasures with a long history!
Of course, although these Four Treasures of the Study can be provided to literati in bookstores for free, there is a prerequisite, that is, they must have good calligraphy!
When Mo Yiyi provided this set of four treasures of the study, she said very bluntly: If there is no one with good calligraphy, don't waste her good things!
This is said rudely, but literati still do this!
Even in the future, some antique ornaments were added to the bookstore, each with its own origin. The bookstore used these ornaments to divide the desks in the bookstore into three, six or nine grades.
If you want to use good ornaments, paperweights, pen holders, pen holders and other things, you must either leave a good poem or a good article or poem.
No matter men, women, old or young, no matter their status, everything in this bookshop is judged according to their own abilities.
Even some melon and fruit incense and pastry incense can be used by these people first.
As for the other people, they are not bad either, and they won't abuse people with bad things.
Even though the food used by ordinary students is good, it is only of a standard that can be bought on the street.
And those who are truly learned and rich, whose handwriting has character, are upright and powerful, are elegant and free, are sharp-edged, or are gentle and graceful, will receive high treatment that cannot be bought in the market!
Among them, the most famous one is a poor student.
This student lost his mother in his early years, leaving behind only seven children and their father. The father later married a barren widow fifteen years older than him in order to take care of these seven children. and help the family.
This widow did well in raising seven children, and later she even gritted her teeth and provided for these seven children to go to school.
It's just that the other six people don't have the talent to study, but this student is very talented and can endure hardships, so he perseveres!
However, something unexpected happened. When he was successful in his studies and wanted to pass the exam as a boy student, he was accidentally hit by a nobleman's carriage. The wheels of the carriage drove over the student's leg, causing the student's leg to be healed even though it was intact. Yes, it's also lame.
The imperial court stipulated that those with poor health could not serve as officials in the imperial court, so even if the nobleman lost a large sum of money, he was still depressed.
Later, the family used his money to marry the other five children and start a family. These five brothers were not supercilious. They were very good to the student and knew that he liked reading. Even if he could not take the scientific examination, they would
Still saving money for him to study.
Everyone said that this family was stupid for supporting a disabled person to study.
But his stepmother said that besides being an official, reading could also be a hobby.
As long as people don’t steal, rob or do bad things, it’s great to have something you like!
Moreover, this student studies at home and can also teach the new generation to read, write, and understand honor and disgrace. This is his greatest contribution to the family!
Later, Mo Yiyi opened this bookstore. The student who had wasted half his life and already had gray hair on his temples mustered up the courage to step into this bookstore because of the desire in his heart, and then he focused all his attention on the bookstore.
, never come out again!
He copied books in the library day and night, and then took the copied books home.
He is not the kind of person who only cares about his own interests and does not care about the life and death of his family. Therefore, no matter how hungry he is for those books, he will take the books home, copy another copy, and then copy the copied copy.
Sold copies to other bookstores.
Other bookstores have plummeted because of Mo Yiyi's bookstore business, but the owners of these bookstores are not angry, but are particularly happy to see the success.
Because Mo Yiyi's bookstore is open to everyone, everyone can copy books and take them home, and of course they can also sell them to them!
You must know that there are a large number of orphans in these books. Most of them are new annotations or articles and poems written by celebrities themselves. Even if they are just some ancient scripts, they also record a large number of previous customs and customs.
And the writing quality is extremely guaranteed!
Therefore, these bookstore owners are very willing to accept these transcripts, and the prices are much higher.
They saved these books, and some book sellers from outer cities would often come here to do business in order to sell these books in other cities. The prices were quite high and the supply exceeded demand!
The student's family also reaped this bonus, and the student could bring back more than a dozen books every day, copy them again at night, and then let his family sell them the next day, earning at least a hundred taels of silver in one day.
!
With such a high earning power, in just a few days it can almost catch up with all the efforts of their family in previous years!
Therefore, the family had no problem with him abandoning his nephews' homework and focusing on reading.
After all, they have so much money, it is enough to send all their children to school, there is no need to hold them back from going to the bookstore!
Later, the bookstore launched the Four Treasures of the Study, which required people with good handwriting to use it.
He is not considered to be the best, but he can be considered to be above average, so he has a quota of a few pieces of paper every day.
Later, when things like melons, fruits, and fragrant tea became available, he even hung up his tail and got together with those knowledgeable people!
It is precisely because of this that he has become famous. His life experience and talent are both unknown to others. He is no longer the useless person who is unknown and unknown, hiding in a small courtyard and guarding his nephews' studies!
Besides him, there are also some female students in this bookstore.
Women can also come to study in the library, and they will be treated the same as men, but women's position is on the top floor, where the display is more elegant, and the books on the two floors below, where men study, are all for women on the upper floor.
Pick the rest!
This incident was exposed almost two months after the book store opened. At that time, it was because a scholar who came late and couldn't squeeze into the book store complained about the book store opening a special floor for women. He
I feel that it is useless for women to study, and the floor given to women should be returned to men for use, so that they can be put to their best use!
This was heard by the woman who came after him, and they started arguing.
However, there were too many students surrounding the door of the bookstore, making it difficult for this woman to defeat the crowd. In the end, she was bullied so hard that she directly revealed that the books on the two floors below were replaced by women from the upper class.
words!
