The first step in the book is to start selling tofu

Identity is given by myself when I go out.

She didn't want these two pillars of the family to die from bullying before they even grew up.

The shopkeeper responded enthusiastically: "Yes, yes, yes. Please come over here, the ready-made clothes here are suitable for the two young masters."

"Go ahead and pick out two outfits to change into."

After Lin Zhi finished speaking, the two brothers took a step forward and followed.

After about a quarter of an hour, the two men came back.

"Just these two sets?" Lin Zhi asked.

The materials chosen by the two brothers were not good ones, just ordinary cotton coats.

It seemed that he was affected by the way she sighed just now.

"These two sets are enough. If the material is better, it will be too high-profile." Dalang explained.

They are definitely not trying to save money.

Absolutely not!

"Okay, whatever you think is okay." Lin Zhi still gave the children a lot of authority in this regard.

The shopkeeper hadn't said anything until they finished talking, then he interrupted: "Are you sure you want these four sets? If so, I'll pack them for you."

"No hurry." Lin Zhi said, "Please give them two more pairs of shoes."

"Okay!" The shopkeeper became even more enthusiastic.

While Dalang and Erlang were looking at shoes, Lin Zhi took Daya to look at the fabrics.

"Da Lang and Er Lang will go to school tomorrow, so we bought ready-made clothes for them. We two are not in a hurry, so we bought the fabric and went home to make them slowly."

"Mom, I know, studying is important." Daya nodded sensibly.

But when Lin Zhi looked into her eyes, the envy and desire in them had disappeared.

After all, he is just a child, and a child who lacks love.

Lin Zhi plans to pay more attention to Daya in the future.

Dalang and Erlang quickly chose their shoes. Lin Zhi pointed at the fabrics he liked and asked the shopkeeper to pack them together.

The next half hour was spent bargaining between Lin Zhi and the shopkeeper.

In the end, the transaction was completed with five taels of silver.

Finished clothes are expensive, and the fabric is not cheap either. Four sets of clothes, two pairs of shoes and two bolts of fabric.

The two pieces of cloth were for the clothes that Lin Zhi and Daya were going to make. One piece of pure white cotton cloth was for inner clothes, and the other piece of cotton and linen cloth was for outer clothes.

The four of them took the things home first, had lunch and then went out again.

This time they went out, carrying backpacks directly, and a group of people came to the library.

Unlike other bustling shops, the library is very quiet.

There were many guests inside, but it wasn't noisy at all and everyone spoke in low voices.

Lin Zhi took the list of books to the shopkeeper, who took a quick look and led them to the books, instructing them:

"The books you need are all in front. Please take whichever one you need."

"Okay, thank you for your help." After Lin Zhi made it clear, the shopkeeper went back to continue his work.

"The Great Learning, The Doctrine of the Mean, The Analects, The Book of Songs, Mencius, The Book of History, The Book of Rites, The Book of Changes, The Spring and Autumn Annals."

These nine books are Confucian classics.

In addition to this, there are twelve books in the Classics section, namely: "The Book of Changes", "The Book of Songs", "The Zuo Zhuan", "The Gongyang Commentary on the Spring and Autumn Annals", "The Gu Liang Commentary on the Spring and Autumn Annals", "The Book of Filial Piety", "Erya", "The Analects", "Mencius", "Mencius", "Xunzi", "Tao Te Ching", and "Mozi".

The twelve books of the Ministry of Personnel: "Records of the Grand Historian", "Book of Han", "Book of the Later Han", "Records of the Three Kingdoms", "Zizhi Tongjian", "Tongdian", "Tongzhi", "Comprehensive Examination of Literature", "Guoyu", "Strategies of the Warring States", "A New Account of Tales of the World", and "Essentials of the Zhenguan Era".

Twelve books in the Zi section: "Collected Notes on Laozi", "Collected Commentaries on Zhuangzi", "Simple Commentaries on Han Feizi", "Commentaries on Mozi's Chapters on City Defense", "Guanzi's Reading of Priorities and Oddities", "Annotated Edition of Yanzi's Spring and Autumn Annals", "Collected Commentaries on Huainanzi's Honglie", "The Art of War" and "Detailed Explanations of the Thirty-Six Strategies", "Annotated Edition of Lunheng", "Direct Commentaries on Xunzi", "Classified Conversations of Zhuzi", and "Selected Works of Zhuzi's Hundred Schools of Thought".

Finally, there are the anthology "Chu Ci Annotations" and "Gu Wen Guan Zhi".

Nine of them are Confucian classics, namely the Four Books and Five Classics that we are all familiar with.

Lin Zhi once thought that the ancient imperial examination only tested the Four Books and Five Classics, so how difficult could it be.

After traveling through time, I discovered that the Four Books and Five Classics were just five major categories, just like modern Chinese and mathematics.

Lin Zhi took two sets of the Four Books and Five Classics and gave them to Dalang and Erlang respectively:

"These are necessary. You will each have one set. As for the remaining books, see if you can borrow them and copy them yourself after you go to the academy."

It’s not that Lin Zhi doesn’t want to buy it, it’s just that he’s short of money.

Dalang and Erlang also knew the situation at home, so they had no objection and started to check the books.

These books are also copied books, and there is a high possibility of copying errors, so they must be checked to be safe.

Both of them are literate and have studied the contents of the book, so there is no problem just checking them.

While the two of them were checking, Lin Zhi and Daya walked around the bookshelf.

The customers who were originally selecting books found it unusual to see two women, who were not dressed very well, selecting books, and kept looking at them.

There are more girls in wealthy families who can study. In ordinary families, not even boys can study, let alone girls.

"Dictionary?" Lin Zhi felt familiar with the title.

She opened it and found that the book was the Modern Dadao Dictionary.

Dictionary, no matter what you need, you can’t do without it.

Take it, take it.

After picking up the dictionary, Lin Zhi continued to browse, and then came to the shelf of leisure books.

The bookshelves here obviously have a lot more people than those bookshelves.

It seems that no matter which dynasty, there are many people who love to read novels.

Lin Zhi also liked to watch, so he walked over.

But after she flipped through a few books, she lost interest.

It contains some clichéd stories about talented men and beautiful women. Just by reading the beginning, Lin Zhi knows what the ending will be.

It's really boring.

She suspected that these people were so keen on reading these vernacular books because serious books were too boring and not as relaxing as vernacular writing.

Daya followed behind Lin Zhi. She knew very few words and could hardly understand anything. She just looked around at the new environment around her.

"Is there any book you want to buy?"

Daya shook her head: "I can't even read, it would be a waste to buy it back."

Lin Zhi nodded: "That's right. It's enough for you to have this book. Once you finish reading this book, no other book will be difficult for you in the future."

Lin Zhi pointed at the dictionary.

Daya didn't know what book this was, but she believed Lin Zhi's words, so she nodded vigorously: "When Dalang and Erlang are free, I will ask them to teach me to recognize words, and then I will memorize this book."
