Chapter 21

When he woke up, Fang Yun washed and had breakfast, then walked around the yard for a few times, and then plunged into the room to practice calligraphy and reading.

During the visit, there were no important things. Yang Yuhuan blocked them in the yard. When they heard Fang Yun's reading voice, they also left knowingly. Before leaving, they didn't forget to praise Fang Yun's hard work.

At noon, Liang Yuan brought wine and vegetables. While eating and drinking with Fang Yun, he talked about the bookstore. Finally, he decided to go to Dayuan mansion with Fang Yun to run the bookstore. For example, Yun left five days earlier to help Fang Yun choose his place of residence and the address of the bookstore.

After dinner, Fang Yun went to the library of the Academy.

The library of the county literary academy is huge, with more than 100000 books. The only disadvantage is that it can't be lent out.

Fang Yun entered it and chose a book that he had never read before, called Caolu Mountain Residence collection, which is the collection of works of a great scholar in Jingguo.

Fang Yun took it silently, and there was no response from the strange book world.

A moment later, Fang Yun whispered, "close!"

Strange book world still has no response.

Fang Yun focused on the five words "Caolu Mountain Residence collection" on the cover. He had a spirit of "killing you with his eyes", but it was useless.

"Can't it be directly included in the world of rare books?"

Fang Yun thought about it and looked at the pages. There was still no response from the world of strange books, so he had to memorize them word by word.

After reading the first page silently, Fang Yun turned the page, and the world of strange books moved.

A blank book appeared in Fang Yun's mind. The five words "Caolu Mountain Residence collection" gradually appeared on the cover. The first page also had content, but the back was still blank.

"Do you really need to read all the words silently before you can get into the world of strange books? This kind of Scripture can't be read quickly. Two words a second, seven thousand two hundred words an hour. Even if you read it for ten hours a day, it's only seventy-two thousand words, and sixty days in three months is only more than four million words. There are a lot of works of saints, especially the works of new saints in the past two or three hundred years. It's a strange book day There are not many in the field. In addition, those great Confucianism and scholars have to look at the interpretation of the holy classics. Don't expect to make great achievements if you don't read them for more than ten years. "

Fang Yun made a mistake. It's much more difficult to test talents in the government test than in the county test. The scope of the test is also very wide. It would be a shame if he could get a Ding from the Scriptures or the saints.

"I really can't. I won't take part in the government examination this year. I'll take the scholar examination in a few years."

Fang Yun thought and left the Academy.

There are many shops related to reading in Wenyuan street, including books, four treasures of study and other sundries. Because Tong Sheng just tried, people in other villages and towns didn't go. This street is very busy, and many shops have discount activities.

Before Fang Yun, he didn't have much money and couldn't buy too many books. Now he is not short of money. He was moved to see that there is a set of Guanhai anthology with a 10% discount.

Chen Guanhai is the only semi saint in Jingguo at present, and his anthology is necessary for many scholars in Jingguo.

The collection of Guanhai essays collects Chen Guanhai's works over the years, including poems, classics, strategies and notes, as well as the comments and explanations of other great Confucianism and scholars. It has a total of 52 books, which are packed in two wooden book boxes, each of which is half a person tall.

Fang Yun walked into the store and a smell of ink came to his face.

"How much is this set of Guanhai anthology?" Fang Yun asked.

"This is a hardcover collection edition. The original price is twenty Liang silver. After a discount of eighteen Liang, there is no counter-offer." the busy bookstore owner doesn't lift his head and continues to work.

Fang Yun was surprised. He didn't expect that this collection of essays was so expensive. If he was still working in a restaurant, it would take three years to buy it without eating or drinking.

"Do you have a paperback?" Fang Yun asked.

"Yes, one in five, no discount."

Fang Yun thought about a hundred words a book, which was a sky high price for him in the past, but not much for him now.

"Then give me a set of plain clothes." Fang Yun just wants to learn rather than collect. There is no need to buy the hardcover, which is too heavy. He needs to collect it until he goes to Dayuan mansion.

Fang Yun was looking for the silver when someone asked in surprise, "but Fang Yun's plan is the first?"

Fang Yun looked up and saw a young man in brocade standing in front of him. He vaguely remembered that he was a neighbor named Xue Hua a few years ago, but he moved away after he was admitted to Tong Sheng.

"Hello, brother Xue, how are aunt and uncle?" Fang Yun said politely.

"My parents are all right. Yesterday I mentioned your high school case. My parents were very happy and didn't want to see you here." Xue Zheng said with a smile.

Fang Yun was about to answer. The owner of the white haired Bookstore shouted, "are you the Fang Shuangjia who went to the examination room in an ox cart?"

"It's Xiaosheng," Fang Yun replied.

"You want the collection of Guanhai essays, don't you? The hardcover is for you. What else do you want? Make a list of books and I'll send them to your house without money." the bookstore owner smiled happily and showed his missing teeth.

Fang Yun hurriedly refused: "thank you for your kindness, but you don't get paid for your reactive power. Just buy it at the normal price."

"Why are you useless? Our Jixian County has never been famous for Shuangjia and shengqian children. You are famous, and our Jixian county is also famous. This is a great contribution to Jixian County. As a member of Jixian County, it's my duty to send you some books. Don't refuse," said the bookshop owner.

Fang Yun had to refuse. Xue Hua said with a smile, "first of all, don't refuse. I've been studying in the Academy of Arts for three years. I've known boss Zhao for a long time. He is a kind-hearted person and especially supports readers. The three people with the best scores in the college entrance examination can come to his bookstore to choose a set of books for free. This practice has lasted for more than ten years."

Boss Zhao said with a smile, "when you become the No. 1 scholar in the future, I can say that my old Zhao once gave books as the No. 1 scholar. That's a glorious thing on his face. A set of books is nothing. You take it. If you don't take it, I'll ask where you live and throw it at your house at night."

Fang Yun knew that this was the great advantage of Wenming. Seeing that he really refused, he had to bow his hands and say, "thank you for the book."

"You're welcome. We old bones can't do it anymore. We'll have to rely on you young students to resist the demon man in the future. Don't learn from Fang Zhongyong. His father takes you around all day. You'll lose the ink in your stomach one day."

"I'll keep it in mind. If I succeed in my studies in the future, I will fight on the battlefield and kill demons."

"Good! Have ambition!" the old man said with a smile.

Fang Yun talked with his boss and Xue Hua for a quarter of an hour in the bookstore. Then he left on the pretext of reading. He walked back with two boxes of books.

Fang Yun's heart is warm, not because he got these books, but because of the friendship of the bookstore owner. If there are such people in the human race and Jingguo, he will not lose to the demon barbarian.

When he got home, Fang Yun opened the bookcase and took out all the books. The room was immediately filled with the same ink smell as the bookstore.

This hardcover book, whether paper or ink, is the best. It feels very good. Fang Yun took it in his hand and looked at the broken books on the reading rack. He thought that books had to be thrown away than books.

"Eh? Why is the book gone!" Fang Yun looked blankly at the empty hands. The fragrance of the book was still there, but the book was gone.

Fang Yun looked around and made sure that it was really gone out of thin air. Instead of being angry, he was very happy. Then he tried to recite in his heart: "Volume I of Guanhai anthology."

A brand-new Volume I of sea viewing works came to his mind, and he could even vaguely smell the fragrance of ink.

Fang uses his mind to turn the page. Like other books in the world of strange books, the text has not changed, but punctuation has been added, which is easier to read and understand.

"This one is similar to the one in the library of the Academy of Arts, but why can this book be included in the world of rare books? Is it a new book or hardcover? This possibility is too small."

Fang Yun tried to touch other books, and then silently read them into the world of strange books. He saw that a total of 52 books of Guanhai Wenji had been included, and there were two empty wooden book boxes left on the ground.

"Is it the relationship of ownership?"

Fang Yun immediately took action and went to his neighbor's house to borrow a book he hadn't read and brought it back. As a result, he couldn't get it in the world of rare books. He tried to finish the first page, and the wonderful book world immediately included the book, but the content was only the first page.

"It seems that only my own book can be included in the world of rare books. If it is someone else's book, I must read it carefully."

Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief. It would be much better. If he could get into the world of rare books after reading them carefully, he would have to read books for ten years.

"The county seat is small. I need too many books. I'm afraid I have to use hundreds of thousands of books. I buy a large number of books and disappear out of thin air. It's easy to be suspected. When I go to Dayuan mansion, I open a bookstore and have a warehouse, I can eat a large number of books without fear of suspicion."

Fang Yun laughed. He didn't expect that there was such a benefit in running a bookstore.

After solving the problem of books, Fang Yun continued to practice calligraphy, and then read the holy works to understand the true meaning.

In the following days, Fang Yun had been practicing calligraphy and reading. In the evening, he went to Cai county magistrate to learn to do Scripture. His life was very full.

Time passed quickly, ten days in a flash.

Yang Yuhuan found a trusted maid, and Fang Yun chose a kind and honest cousin from the children of the Fang family to follow him and deal with all the chores one after another.

On a hazy morning, four people loaded their things into the carriage.

The rooster announced the dawn, and the loud voice sounded. The four people looked at the empty yard and the light frost marks on the ground. They were all sad.

Fang Yun looked to the horizon, the sun did not rise, and the East was blue.

In the silent morning, the four got into the carriage.

"Set out." Fang Yun said in a deep voice in the carriage.

Sitting at the front of the car, Daniel Fang shook his whip and made a crisp sound of "pa".

The three horses immediately snorted, white fog from their noses, and marched their hooves to drive the carriage forward.

The bell on the head horse's neck shook, and the melodious bell echoed on the road. The wheels of the car pressed against the ground, making a gurgling sound, and the people on the car vibrated gently.

Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but open the curtains and looked out.

Fang Yun saw a faint waning moon hanging in the sky through the carriage window.

"We will come back," Fang Yun comforted.

Yang Yuhuan stretched out his hand and gathered the beautiful hair in his ear and said, "if you are there, you are home, but people always miss the past."

Mrs. Jiang, who is in her forties, said, "the owner is a Wenqu star. It's the same everywhere. When the owner becomes the number one in the future, he can naturally come back to visit his relatives."

Fang Yun nodded.
