But compared with the wealthy families in the county, their family was considered wealthy in the town, but it was not obvious in the county. How could they compete with people in the county? Even so, the servants in his house waited in line for several days but still couldn't buy anything.

Fortunately, Fumanlou added another fifty roast ducks, and now sells one hundred every day, so his servants can also buy roast duck today.

Thinking of the delicious roast duck, he wanted to go home quickly to enjoy it, but he felt a little conflicted when he saw his three classmates.

Minghao said that Sister Yue asked them to stay in the academy and not go out, so he had to stay in the hospital. But he didn't want to enjoy the roast duck alone and wanted to share it with his classmates. He couldn't make up his mind for a while.

However, what Chen Bao didn't know was that Mingyu, Minghao and Mingxuan had already eaten roast duck, which was made by their sister and sent by their father.

Originally, Dad sent them two roast ducks and said that they could share them with their classmates, but once they got the roast duck, they didn't even think about giving it to others.

No matter whether it was Mingyu, Minghao or Mingxuan, when they heard that the roast duck was made by their sister, they were all so greedy that they took the food and started eating without hesitation.

The key point is that the roast duck tasted so good that by the time they reacted, there was only a pile of bones left on the ground.

Thinking about the fact that they had a good relationship with Chen Bao during this period and that Chen Bao often brought food from home for them, they now had roast duck and it was natural for them to share it with Chen Bao.

But the three of them couldn't help themselves and ate up the two big roast ducks completely. They couldn't let Chen Bao eat the bones.

After finishing their roast duck, the three of them looked at each other in bewilderment. They also knew that Chen Bao must not know about this. Otherwise, if Chen Bao knew that they were eating alone, their friendship might be ruined.

Therefore, as the three of them deliberately concealed the matter of the roast duck, Chen Bao didn't hear anything about it and had no idea that he missed the roast duck made by his sister Yue.

After learning that his family bought roast duck from the county, I thought about eating it with Mingyu, Minghao and Mingxuan, but it turned out that they had already eaten the roast duck.

Mingyu, Minghao and Mingxuan were indeed feeling guilty about the roast duck. When Chen Bao invited them to his house to eat roast duck again, they refused on the grounds that they had to listen to their sister.

Chen Bao knew that it was useless to say anything more, and he didn't want to go against Sister Yue's words, so he took the servant home.

After Chen Bao left, Minghao looked at his two brothers and said tentatively: "Big brother, second brother, my pens and ink are almost used up. Let's go to the bookstore to buy some."

When Mingyu and Mingxuan heard this, they turned around and looked at Minghao. After a while, Mingxuan said, "My ink is almost used up, so you can buy some too."

Mingyu followed suit, “Me too.”

The three of them exchanged glances and walked towards the entrance of the academy in tacit understanding.

They didn't lie. The pens and ink were indeed running out, and they needed to go to the bookstore to buy some more, otherwise they would have trouble writing in a few days.

But they only need to buy pens and ink, they don't need to buy paper.

Because some time ago a woman brought a little girl to the academy to deliver paper to them.

At first they didn't know each other, so they just refused directly.

But when the other party revealed his identity, they realized that he was their sister's subordinate, and then they took the paper.

But when they got the paper, they discovered before they started using it that it was very different from the paper they usually used.

In the past, my sister always bought the most expensive paper for them in the store, saying that it was for practicing calligraphy, and that it would be smoother and easier to use.

But the best paper in that store was a dull yellowish color, while the paper his sister had someone send over looked beige, but the color was relatively lighter.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the paper that my sister asked someone to send to me. The color is brighter, the texture is finer, and the paper is softer.

What surprised them most was that the ink did not seep through when they wrote.

Although their elder sister paid for their education and told them not to worry about money, the three of them knew that earning money was not easy. Therefore, even if their elder sister gave them pocket money, they were reluctant to spend it and tried to buy cheap food for three meals a day.

However, pens, ink, paper and inkstone are even more expensive, so of course they are reluctant to waste them.

When practicing calligraphy on paper, I usually write on the front side, let it dry, and then write on the back side. This way I can save money.

However, even if they use the most expensive paper on the market to write, the ink will still seep through.

The paper their sister gave them avoided this problem. After using it once, they knew that the paper their sister gave them was precious.

Originally they had no intention of using it, but two days later the woman came to the academy again with the little girl and brought them a large stack of paper, saying that they could use it as much as they wanted and more would be delivered when they had run out, so they didn't have to worry about not having enough paper. So they started using it.

Since their elder sister told them to use it without hesitation, they certainly did not hide it and actually used it in class.

The result was as they expected. The paper, like the school bags, was very popular in the school.

Not only did their classmates ask them where they bought the paper, but even the teachers in the academy asked them privately.

They did not hide it and said that it was given by their sister, but they did not know where their sister bought it from.

Many people were disappointed when they heard this, but some people also exchanged their papers with them using ordinary paper, as they themselves were reluctant to use such good paper to practice calligraphy.

Without refusing, he agreed to the exchange directly. Three ordinary pieces of paper could be exchanged for the one in their hand.

The stack of paper they had in their hands had a hundred sheets. After exchanging them, they got three hundred sheets of ordinary paper. Each person got a hundred sheets, which was enough for them to use for a while.

So they come out to buy pens and ink, not paper.

At that time, Li Mengyue didn't know that her original purpose of asking Gongsun and Niuniu to deliver paper to her three younger brothers was to prevent them from being too frugal so that they could practice calligraphy to their heart's content.

Unexpectedly, her younger brothers were reluctant to use the paper she had someone send them, and replaced them all with ordinary paper.

However, it was also the unintentional actions of the three younger brothers that made the paper produced by the Gongsun family famous in the academy before it was put on the market for sale, and became the paper that every student wanted to own.

Another point is that the quality of these papers is so good that they have also appeared on the desk of the dean of the college.

When the dean of the academy learned that the papers came from the hands of the three brothers Mingyu, Minghao and Mingxuan, he issued an order in the academy that the papers must not be taken out of the academy.

But there are always unexpected things, and the dean’s words are not authoritative in front of all students.

Therefore, the matter of the paper was leaked, attracting the covetousness of some people.

But the three brothers Mingyu, Minghao and Mingxuan didn't know this. After they left the academy, they went to the place where pens and ink were sold.
