Chapter 2131 A total of fun
The biography of Xiang Mingxue written by Bai Erlang is divided into three volumes. For the first volume, he found the bookstore owner himself and paid him directly according to the number of words, which was particularly small.
The next two volumes were negotiated by Bai Shan, who directly negotiated the share. Although there were many copyists in the capital, as long as they were engraving and printing, they would basically be given a share of the money, so until now, every month
Bookstores all send money to Zhou's house.
Bai Erlang glanced at his husband quietly through the book, and whispered to Zhou Liru: "I think the best book is "The Legend of Three Heroes", which I read a few years ago, and it is also your sister-in-law's book.
But she probably didn’t bring it..."
Liu Huan immediately asked: "Why haven't I heard you say that? You recommended me to watch "The Ten Years of Dahua" last time. It was good to watch, but it felt like reading a history book."
"I was still in Yizhou at that time, and I didn't know you. If you didn't ask me, how could I tell you?"
Liu Huan sighed, "You Yizhou people have so many chivalrous words."
"That is, Man Bao and Bai Shan have average abilities, but they are very good at choosing books. They can always buy better-looking books than me. Last time Bai Shan bought a handwritten copy of "
"Jiushi Ji", when I took a quick look at the cover, I thought it was about gold, bronze, seals and stones. Who knew it was about two knights seeking immortality? It was very interesting. But one of them had the last name Jin and the other had the last name
Stone, so it is called Jinshiji."
Yin couldn't help but put down the book and asked: "How about choosing words and making sentences?"
"Banbai, it is not as popular as the popular book I have in my hand. The words and sentences are very gorgeous. I think it is very beautiful. There are several poems written by the author in it. I think I can submit it to the paper."
Even Yin You couldn't hold back after hearing this, "Where's the book?"
"I've finished reading it. Man Bao is reading it now. Ask her."
Manbao really did bring them. She had Keke with her, so she brought the most books.
Not only is there a bookshelf full of books in the space, but she also carries a lot of them in her luggage. After all, she can't conjure books out of thin air, can she?
So she had a big box specially packed with her books. In addition to some medical books, there were also some of her notes, some collections of classics and history, and a lot of blank booklets and pens.
She had always taken care of that box by herself, so not even Bai Shan knew what books she had brought, except for herself.
When Yin He asked, she went to the car to look through it, then turned out the book and gave it to him. She also gave Zhou Liru a copy, but it was not "The Legend of Three Heroes" recommended by Bai Er, but "Dahua"
ten years".
She said: "You are still young, so you should read less miscellaneous books like "The Legend of Three Heroes". After reading medical books, occasionally read classics and history when you have time. "Ten Years of Dahua" is written in the vernacular, which is very interesting.
You can take a look."
Zhou Liru took it and responded.
She is not as good as her sister-in-law. She needs to read the book many times before she can remember it. Especially now that she has to learn acupuncture, pharmacology and pulse diagnosis, she doesn't have much free time.
So she doesn't read many other books. Basically, she reads whatever books her sister-in-law recommends.
After dividing the books, Man Bao also began to secretly search on the bookshelf in the space. He quickly found a book that he had not read but had always been interested in. Then he looked around, reached into the box and rummaged through it.
He stuffed it into his arms as if he had taken it out of the box.
When Bai Shan saw her sneaking around like this, he knew that what she was reading was not a serious book. He thought that he was also short of books recently, so he leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Do you have any other books?"
Manbao rolled his eyes, touched in the box again, took out a book and gave it to Bai Shan.
The two of them sneaked back to the room with their books in their arms.
Mr. Zhuang saw it from a distance and couldn't help but shake his head.
The inn had ingredients provided by Daji, and finally prepared a decent dinner.
While Bai Shan and the others were eating, Yi Cheng gave his son twenty coins and asked him to ride the post horse to his uncle's house to get the seeds.
So before it got dark, Manbao and the others saw the seeds of Shanyi and wrapped them in a small packet with paper.
Man Bao looked at it carefully and found that they were all active, so she gave Yi Cheng half of it and said with a smile: "As long as the soil is slightly moist when you spread it, don't pour too much water. Since your Yue family can grow it, why don't you ask for more advice?"
."
Yi Cheng bowed down and thanked him. In fact, he was not very interested in planting this thing. It was just that his mother-in-law was so troubled because she wanted to make money from it.
He said that it takes three or four years to dig out the roots once, and the roots of one plant are not worth much, so there is no need to go to such trouble.
Man Bao felt that with the post station in such a state of ruin, their family's life would not be much better, so it would be a good thing to have other income.
Manbao collected the other half of the seeds, found a small box in the space, put it in, then wrote a note and put it on the shelf.
After the encyclopedia's research comes out, she will take a look at how to plant them. If the seeds are difficult to cultivate, she will leave them to the encyclopedia for breeding. Then she will find a way to send them back to Third Brother and his friends.
There are also many uses for the roots of Echinacea, but the medicinal materials they grow on the mountain are still a bit thin.
It was getting dark, and Yi Cheng lit the lamp with great pain.
Seeing the familiar expression on his face, Man Bao knew what he was thinking, so he smiled and said: "It's so cold, don't you have a brazier? Just bring the brazier to light a fire and put out the lights."
Yi Cheng then said: "How good is this? The adults can't be in the dark here, and they also have to read."
Bai Erlang and the others on the side have been holding books with gusto, showing great diligence.
Mr. Zhuang knew that what they were reading was not a serious book, otherwise how could they read it so energetically?
He glanced over and said directly: "Stop reading, put down the book and rest your eyes."
Bai Erlang and others put down their books reluctantly, and then sat down around the brazier.
Bai Shan sighed: "This year is colder than in previous years, and it hasn't warmed up yet."
Yi Cheng sat with him, nodded and bowed and said "yes".
Bai Shan asked curiously: "Have you started sowing rice seeds now?"
"Yes, the seedlings have come out, and they will be ready to be planted in another half month..." Yi Cheng did not expect that this fairy-like figure also knew about the farming season, and said with a smile: "We are better here. I heard that there was a snowstorm in the grassland this year.
Smallpox has also broken out, and many people have died. The snow has not yet melted over there, so we don’t know what life will be like. When adults go north, are they going to Xiazhou or other places?"
The information in the post station has always been much better informed than in other places, but some of the information in the capital was screened, and because there was too much information sent to the capital, they had no chance to know many things.
Bai Shandao: "Let's go to the Western Regions."
He did not conceal their purpose and said: "I heard that there is a vaccination method to prevent and control smallpox in the Western Regions, so we went to look for it."
Yi Cheng was surprised and said: "If you can find such a method, it will be a matter of immeasurable merit. Doctor Zhou is really amazing."
