Tang's dining table
Chapter 458 Everyone has a price
Yunchu's education to Naha was a failure.
When we were in the Western Regions, we only taught this child how to survive. Since it is survival, there is no reason to explain. The first priority is always to save one's own life. At this time, virtues such as kindness, kindness, forgiveness, and humility do not exist. of.
After returning to Chang'an, he took pity on the child and stayed away from her parents. He felt that the child was very pitiful, so he doted on her blindly. Although he corrected some of the child's outrageous behaviors, in the end, he still did not change.
Cui taught the child to be brave and tenacious, and Yu Xiurong taught the child to be independent and self-reliant.
The old monkey taught the child to be strong, and Li Hong always discussed with Naha how to become a good prince, queen, and emperor.
The most terrible person, the person in the Yun family who had the most contact with Wu Mei, a monster, was Naha, so much so that this woman's words and deeds affected Naha.
Yunchu did not dare to tell Naha that he actually had medicine in his hand that could make those monks suffer from constipation.
Now, he felt it was time to have a serious talk with Naha.
Yun Chu grabbed Naha's little hand, and the brother and sister took a walk in Jinchangfang. Maybe it was because Naha had grown up and she was no longer used to being held by her brother, so her palms were full of sweat.
Fortunately, the intimacy was not lost. Naha wiped the sweat from her hands with her clothes and happily held her brother's hand.
On this day, Yunchu did not talk to Naha dogmatically. Instead, he took her to watch pandas eat bamboo, and together with the cook in the cafeteria, he made a delicious sliver of meat and fried a lot of crispy meatballs. Just put it in a small bamboo basket, pinch one and eat it while walking.
When I passed Tongban's printing shop, I went in to take a look at this tall pioneer and expert in the printing industry.
At first, she was looking at the various saints' words printed by the Tongban family, and Yunchu was very satisfied with the various subtle words and righteousness placed on the bookshelf. Until Naha discovered that the Tongban family was also responsible for printing Pingkangfang's "Fengyue Baojian", the brother and sister Not polite, he stuck the copper plate in the corner and blasted it.
I thought this bastard would admit his mistake, but he didn't know that even after being beaten, Copperplate argued with a pair of panda eyes: "My lord, the sales are very good, the sales are very good, not only the booksellers in Luoyang Come to my store to buy books. Even booksellers from Sichuan and Yangzhou also come to my store to buy books.
The barren ravines in Wannian County are full of bamboo. In the two years since you were away, a total of thirty-seven papermaking workshops have been opened in Wannian County. If the small ones don't print more, they will sell well and quickly. Book, are you letting those paper makers drink from the northwest wind?
Besides, the books published by Xiaoyin are all good books that are charming but not vulgar, gorgeous but not seductive. Take a look at this book "The Pretty Scholar Fights the Vixen in Ancient Temple". More than 30,000 copies were sold in Chang'an alone. Just like that, the supply still exceeds the demand.
The scholars in the Four Schools, the Imperial College, and the Imperial College couldn't wait for printing, so they copied and sold them by hand, supporting many poor scholars. "
Yun Chu flipped through it, and the content didn't seem to matter to him, who had seen more explicit content.
But the engraving illustrations inside are truly high-quality... You can tell at a glance that they were made by famous artists.
The copper plate was beaten like a panda by the Yun Chu brother and sister. Seeing Naha peeking at the cover and Yun Chu looking at the illustrations, he quietly took out a few original paintings from a wooden box, wrapped them in cloth and placed them next to Yun Chu. Said: "Zhan Ziqian, a descendant of Zhang Sengyao drew it himself."
Yun Chu said in surprise: "As far as I know, Zhan Ziqian is good at pavilions, Zhang Sengyao is good at dragons and eagles..."
Staring at the copper plate with a pair of panda eyes, he chuckled and said: "It's not as fast as this to make money, and it's not as popular as this, hehe... people always have to eat.
Recently, the younger one is contacting the children of the Yan Gongbu family... By then, the "Album of Twelve Beauties of Chang'an" drawn by these talented people will surely be a big seller, and by then, the younger one will deliver the original drawings to his house. "
Yunchu naturally carried these pictures in his arms, took away the book Naha was about to open, and hurriedly left the Tongban family's book printing workshop.
When he stood at the door and looked back, Yun Chu was very emotional. It was originally a book printing workshop that no one cared about. In just a few years, it has developed into a giant workshop with more than 300 book printing craftsmen.
The various books they print can be sent to the Songmo Governor's Mansion in the north, to Annan Aizhou in the south, and even across the ocean to the Japanese country...
If such a printing workshop is well run, its annual profit may not be much less than that of a cotton textile workshop.
Naha looked at her brother and said, "What's so interesting about fairies fighting?"
Yun Chu nodded and said, "That's why I don't allow copper coins to continue to harm people."
Naha shook her head and said: "Sister-in-law's dowry included a book printing workshop. If it hadn't been for the help of Wannian County to print some documents, announcements, and books in recent years, it would have been unable to survive long ago. Since this thing sells well, Our family should also print some and sell them."
Yun Chu flatly refused: "That's not possible. Our printing workshop can only be used to print some saints' subtle words and righteousness, not messy things."
Naha said: "How can it be done? There is too little printing work, and our family is raising forty or fifty idle people in vain."
Yun Chu nodded Naha's brow and said, "If you can urge Master Xuanzang to translate one more scripture, our workshop will have endless work, or you can urge our ancestors to write another medical book. There is still endless work to be done in the workshop.”
Naha sniffed and said, "I'll ask tomorrow."
Unknowingly, the brother and sister left Jinchangfang and strolled aimlessly along Zhuque Street.
It was the same way back then. The brother and sister drove a carriage and took three thousand taels of gold with them. The only difference was that now they could enter any shop in Chang'an City and no longer had to feel rejected. The humiliation outside the door.
There are many signs of merchants in the West Market, and the people standing at the door to solicit customers are all handsome boys or girls, and many people use orchid directly.
There are many people, the environment is not very good, and there is a faint smell permeating the air.
The source of the stinky smell is camels, and part of it comes from Tibetan merchants.
It's better in winter, but in midsummer, wealthy people who are more discerning will not enter the West Market to buy things.
However, it is also really lively here.
The brother and sister sat on the railing and watched the people coming and going on the street. This was the purpose of Yunchu bringing Naha out today.
Reach out to more people.
In fact, it was not the brother and sister who were looking at others. Soon, because Naha was so beautiful, it was the brothers and sisters who were looked at by others.
"During this Eastern Expedition, I led the soldiers to kill more than 20,000 people with my own hands..."
Naha rolled her eyes and said, "It's better for you to come back alive than anything else. As for how many people were killed, they deserve to die."
Yun Chu scratched his head and said, "They don't all deserve to die, right?"
Naha held Yunchu's arm, rested her head on her brother's shoulder and said, "As long as my brother is fine, it doesn't matter if everyone in the world dies."
Hearing what Naha said, Yunchu knew that her thinking had already been formed and it was almost impossible to change it.
Naha is now a mature queen mentally.
This kind of mentality is actually the characteristic of power. As long as you achieve your goal, it doesn't matter how many strangers die.
Yun Chu did not speak anymore, but held Naha's hand through the West Market and walked through the East Market. When they came out of Anyefang, Yun Chu and Naha stood outside a shop selling Hu cakes and watched from a distance. The people inside are busy.
The young man selling biscuits, who was originally very young and clean, has now become greasy, his clothes are not as clean as he was then, and he has an extra layer of beard on his face.
The originally slim lady boss turned into a bloated woman in just a few years.
Naha looked at the boss who was actually not very old, then looked up at her brother, and asked puzzledly: "How did he become so old? And her wife, who used to be such a clean woman, is now with the big cafeteria pork Like the cook, she looks greasy. Look at her hair, which is wrapped with a cloth. She must not have washed her hair for a long time.
However, his shop is much bigger and the house is new.
Brother, do poor people age easily? "
Yun Chu smiled and said, "Just watch it slowly."
Naha looked around suspiciously and finally said: "Brother, what do you want me to do? Just tell me directly and don't let me guess."
Yun Chu said: "I need to let you understand that a person can be superior, but he must also accept mediocrity.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to make a comeback after encountering setbacks. "
Naha curled her lips and said: "We have lived through hard times. I know those wild vegetables can be eaten, I also know how to kill sheep, how to catch marmots, and I can also weave whips."
Yunchu laughed and stopped talking, dragging Naha through Anyefang and towards Jinchangfang.
The young boss, who was adding mutton head meat to the pancakes for his customers, stopped what he was doing, touched the woman next to him and said, "The people who passed by just now are the county magistrate and his wife, right?"
The old lady, who would blush whenever she mentioned Yun Chu, wiped her greasy hands on her apron and said nonchalantly: "That's a noble person, not something that poor people like us can get along with."
The boss chuckled and said, "If you had followed the county magistrate back home, you might have lived a life of fine clothes and fine food now."
The proprietress stopped the meat-cutting knife in her hand and said blankly for a moment: "Actually, it's not that good."
The boss quickly put the sheep's head meat into the pancake, handed it to the guest, took back a few copper coins, threw the coins into a jar and said with a smile: "From now on, you are truly my wife."
The proprietress struggled to tear the meat from the hot sheep's head, took out two complete sheep's eyes and handed them to her husband: "I have always been your mother-in-law."
The boss put the sheep's eyes ordered by the guest into the pancake, sprinkled it with salt and pepper, handed it to the guest to take back the money, and said proudly: "You looked so good back then."
This time the landlady didn't reply, she just wiped her eyes gently with her sleeve, took out a sheep's head from the soup pot, and continued to tear...
