Transmigrated into a female county magistrate during a famine, leading her country to prosperity

After taking a general look at the layout of the bookstore, the students turned their attention back to the books.

The two adjacent bookshelves are filled with the same kind of books, which are neatly stacked. The titles of the books are inscribed on the spines, but the small characters are so densely packed that they are difficult to read clearly at first glance.

The students were dazzled by the sight and began to wonder, "Why do you have to put so many identical books here? It would take a long time just to copy them, and if we put them in a bookstore, how can we sell them all?"

A handwritten book basically sells for a few hundred wen or less than one or two liang, but because it is a handwritten book, it lacks some of the style of a famous author. Unless people really like the book, there are not many people willing to buy it.

There are so many similar books in Tongan Bookstore...

According to their estimates, they may not be sold out until next year.

What exactly is going on in Tongan County?

They really couldn't figure it out, so they stepped into the bookshelf area and randomly chose a bookshelf to see what kind of books there were that could copy and sell hundreds of copies at a time.

As they walked inside, the bookstore, which was originally a little noisy, suddenly became quiet, but the next moment it suddenly exploded again, becoming even noisier.

"'Shi Ji Tong Jian Ji Yao'?! I have been looking for this book for a long time. I remember that only a few seniors have it, but they don't lend it out to others. They only let close friends to read it!"

"'Compendium of Ce Lun Dian Li'! My God, is this book for sale? The one I have at home was bought from an old scholar. Just the handwritten copy cost me three taels and five cents!"

"Come over here and take a look. This bookshelf contains the Elegant Rules of Poetry and Prose!"

"This is the Selected Works!"

"No wonder, no wonder! Even though this bookstore only has twelve books when it opens, these books... are all the best!"

Although the books they are seeing now are not unique, they are still ranked among the many books. The reason is simple - these books are all classics and are all related to scientific examinations!

The students who had not yet chosen a bookshelf became as anxious as ants on a hot pan when they heard the titles of books coming from the shelves.

I want to see it all!

Which bookshelf should I go to?

They gritted their teeth and rushed to the empty bookshelves at the back, ready to meet the surprise.

But when they took out the book and looked at it, they were suddenly stunned.

"The Enlightenment Rhymes?"

The student didn't believe it, so he took out another book, and saw four big words written on the cover - Kaimeng Rhymes.

The corners of his mouth slowly dropped.

How come everyone else picked all classics, but he just picked a children's enlightenment book!

He carefully put the book back, then confidently changed the bookshelf.

——"Essentials of General Treatment for All Diseases".

"Even medical books?" The student rubbed his eyes, looked up and down at the bookshelf, and finally confirmed that all the books on this shelf were medical books!

What kind of luck is this?

Before he could walk to the next bookshelf, another inhalation was heard.

His heart tightened - what good stuff had they found?

"Don't look for the book anymore. Open it and look at the words inside! It's so strange. All the same words are like they were printed from the same mold. There is not even the slightest difference!"

"It's true! And the ink of these characters is of the same depth, just like, just like..."

"It's like a writer who writes an entire book without stopping! Without even touching the brush again!"

You must know that whenever you write, you must use ink, and whenever you use ink, there will definitely be subtle differences in the depth of the handwriting.

But these details...are not in these books at all!

The students were so shocked that they didn't bother to read the content of the book, but instead played "find the differences" in the book.

But after a while, a smart person saw the clue: "These words... although the strokes are excellent, the thickness of the ink is not worthy of the strokes. It feels to me like..."

The man paused, and even he himself couldn't believe it: "Like... a seal."

"Yes!" As soon as these words came out, all the students were immediately enlightened. "That's how I feel too. And do you think the words on the book are very similar to the words on the plaque?"

Everyone's breath was held, and some even ran to the door with the book in hand, then ran back in shock, exclaiming, "Ninety-nine percent like it!"

"Uncle!" All the students opened their mouths and stared, saying in unison.

The words on these books are all my uncle’s words!

Although it is just printed with a seal, it is at least the handwriting of the uncle and the authentic work of the uncle!

day!

They could actually see the book “written” by their uncle with their own eyes!

They couldn't wait to start flipping through the pages.

"But..." Someone among the bookshelves raised a question: "If these words were printed one by one, how could the spacing be exactly the same? This... is really strange."

Others were so busy reading that they had no time to think about this question. "The means used by Tong'an County are not something we can think of at will. It's enough to see the words of the Lord! Stop talking. I need to observe carefully."

Everyone seemed to have reached a consensus, and for a moment, the only sound in the bookstore was the rustling of pages.

Behind the counter, Zhou Hanjiang raised his eyelids and chuckled, "Just now you said there was a price on the back of the book, but no one turned the page to take a look. They're all idiots."

Xu Zhubu stood beside him with his hands behind his back, smiling: "It's normal that everyone is attracted by the content of the book and forgets about this. After all... no book has a price on the back."

Yes.

Zhou Hanjiang glanced at him.

If the books have prices on the back, how can you raise the price arbitrarily, bid randomly, and make "friends" by collecting books in the future?

He picked up an account book and asked casually, "How have you been doing in Tongan County these days?"

"You are finally willing to care about your students." Xu Zhubu laughed softly, bent down and took out a wooden box from the counter, "This is a small gift from your student. It is a new tea set made in Quanyang Porcelain Kiln. I hope you will accept it."

Zhou Hanjiang seemed to be frowning, but in fact his hard heart had softened a lot. "You mean, I have to take the initiative to care about you before I can accept the gift. If I don't care about you, will you hide this tea set forever?"

good boy!

You are too narrow-minded!

"I have absolutely no such intention." Xu Zhubu opened the wooden box, revealing the exquisite tea set inside. "I didn't expect you to be in the bookstore. I wanted to send it to you later."

Zhou Hanjiang breathed a sigh of relief and began to play with the tea set. "You are an official now, why do you still call me teacher?"

"No matter how long it has been, you are still my teacher." Xu Zhubu arranged the tea set for him and took out a can of tea from the counter. "Tong'an County is very good, and my students are also very good in Tong'an County. Teacher... if you have met the adults, you will understand Master Yu."
