Chapter 102 100. We are all elders, so we can only judge by official position (please subscribe with a monthly ticket)

Sun Ce was indeed very angry. He prepared his troops vigorously. When he saw that the grain from this autumn's harvest had been put into the warehouse, he called his subordinates together and began to prepare for the war.

Liu Biao naturally received the news, but he had been reminded by "Huang Chu" before, so he had to ask Huang Zu to be careful and be prepared again.

As for the war in the north, he had already received a letter from Yuan Shao asking why he accepted Cao Cao's overtures.

Of course, Liu Biao said that the emperor was in the hands of Cao Cao, and Soochow wanted to use their Chu paper method in Jingzhou, so he had no choice but to make a fuss with Cao Cao.

Then... Yuan Shao believed it. Of course, this was in the interests of Jingzhou, so Yuan Shao would naturally believe it.

Later, Yuan Shao also asked Liu Biao to encourage the princes of Yuzhou to rebel against Cao with him. After all, Jingzhou now had such a big sign as Chu paper.

He believed that as long as Liu Biao was willing to give up his interests...

There are many people in Yuzhou who will rebel against Cao Cao.

Liu Biao, who was over fifty years old, sat in his study and wrote down the current information with a pen on paper. Within a quarter of an hour, he felt a little dizzy.

I have to put down my pen and sigh that time is not forgiving.

"Husband, you just need to rest for a while." Mrs. Cai carried some cakes and entered the study.

"Yes, it's time to rest. There are many things that should be left to Achu to handle, but unfortunately, she just hasn't come back yet!" Liu Biao laughed.

"Husband, must you have forgotten that Ah Chu is only thirteen years old? How can he be like his cousin who is away from home every day?" Mrs. Cai joked.

"Yes..." Liu Biao agreed. After all, Huang Yueying was still a child. Then he shook his head helplessly, "If not, bring your sister to Xiangyang..."

But the next second, he rejected the idea, "No, no, this will make it easy for the young gentleman's identity to be revealed."

"Okay, husband, don't worry anymore." Mrs. Cai was helpless, "If your husband trusts A Chu so much, why not let A Chu give advice to Cong'er or Qi'er."

"That's it!" Liu Biao's eyes lit up, "Qi'er and Cong'er are grown up now, so they should share my worries."

Of course, what he was thinking in his heart was that it would be better if Achu could help him find an heir.

"Yes." Mrs. Cai agreed with a smile and knelt down behind Liu Biao.

In fact, in Mrs. Cai's view, Huang Yueying will definitely be closer to Liu Cong if Liu Cong marries her niece.

My husband is now over fifty, and his energy and health are not as good as when he first entered Jingzhou.

She should also make plans for her future life.

Since ancient times, Liu Cong does not have an advantage in terms of age.

Fortunately, his brother now holds military power, and his niece has Liu Biao's trust, so Liu Cong still has a chance to give it a try.

"Madam, you are indeed a madam." Feeling the softness behind him, Liu Biao leaned over and relaxed.

…

When Huang Yueying arrived in Xiangyang, she went to Sanwei Bookstore first.

The residence Liu Biao sent was a mansion, but she had to take Chu Zhi there first and take a look at the current situation of the bookstore.

We haven’t seen each other for more than three months, but the popularity of the bookstore has not diminished. Even if more than 100 people copy more than 10,000 volumes of books every day, the speed is still not enough...

However, the biggest consumer is actually Chu paper.

Someone did a rough calculation and found that for one hundred and twenty people, even if each person only consumed one piece of paper per day, that would be six hundred dollars, not to mention the consumption of pen and ink.

One hundred and twenty pictures a day, thousands of pictures a month, three months...nearly 10,000 pictures.

Not to mention, one piece of paper a day is not enough.

Books copied for the Academy are not allowed to be altered, so they must be copied with great care, but no matter how careful they are, accidents still happen.

These people would buy this kind of discarded Chu paper for two cents, otherwise... they would really feel sorry for the bookstore to have to pay for it.

Huang Zhi saw another batch of replenished Chu papers, saw the young man named "Huang Chu", and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for many days, but the man's style remains the same."

"Uncle Zhi!" Huang Yueying had no choice but to get off her horse, "How is the bookstore now?"

"Mr. Zhongxuan's collection of books has been copied so far. Half of them have been copied, but the Chu paper has been worn out a lot. Fortunately, Chu paper is being replenished every ten days..." Huang Zhi explained the situation.

Huang Yueying nodded, "What about the sales situation?"

"Sales volume has not decreased but increased in the past three months." Huang Zhi sighed with emotion, "Most of the scholars who copy books will buy a few more pieces of Chu paper at the end of the day, and the inventory of Chu paper now is sufficient..."

Huang Yueying smiled and nodded.

Originally, in April, the sales of Chu paper had stabilized, but after Wang Can announced the donation of books and she announced that she would provide Chu paper for free...

There is an endless stream of people coming to the bookstore every day. They come all the time, but sometimes they don’t want to go back empty-handed, so they stop by and buy some Chu paper.

And some scholars cooperated with scholars who were ranked first.

After the scholar who was ranked in line copied a book, he gave it to the person who was not ranked in line to take home and copy first. The former would then receive the second book from the collection and continue copying... and the latter, of course, had to buy Chu paper to copy.

This also boosted the sales of Chu paper.

After hearing what Huang Zhi said, Huang Yueying was helpless. Bugs can be found everywhere. It just depends on whether they, as officials, can't help it.

Of course, it can't be helped.

Originally, the bookstore existed, firstly, to sell Chu paper, and secondly, to spread knowledge.

Why should she ban the method they came up with on their own?

Even if someone copied too much, she could send it back to Zhuangzi and hand it over for engraving and printing, killing two birds with one stone.

Therefore, today's Sanwei Bookstore is definitely Xiangyang... no, it is the holy place for scholars in Jingzhou, where no one can say a bad word, and no one can murmur a word about the little teacher.

"Uncle Zhi, move the Chu paper in first, and then I will bring the copied books back to the house." Huang Yueying made arrangements. There are only three shops. If the Chu paper is to be piled in, other things must be taken out.

"Okay." Huang Zhi directly led people to start moving things.

Seeing this, the scholars around him thought that the output of paper in Chu had finally increased. They also thought about Mr. Xiao’s hard work in Nanyang. They also thought that if Mr. Xiao hadn’t been there, they wouldn’t have had so many books to read.

I became even more grateful.

So, they all saluted and thanked the young gentleman one after another.

Huang Yueying hurriedly returned the gift without saying anything, so she had no choice but to run away.

From behind, Gan Ning laughed and followed.

As for the other guards, of course they need to move their things first and then return to work at the mansion.

…

Back at the mansion, Huang Yueying breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Gan Ning's gloating look, she gritted her teeth and said, "Brother knows the joke."

"It's rare to see Achu look like this, so of course he smiled."

"hehe."

"Okay, should you go to the State Shepherd's Mansion or the Military Advisor's Mansion first?"

"Of course it's the Prefectural Mufu's Mansion." Huang Yueying said, "The Prefectural Mufu is my uncle, and the Military Advisor is my uncle. They are both elders. We cannot distinguish between relatives. We can only judge them based on their official positions."

Gan Ning: ...He suspected that Huang Yueying was seeking hatred.
