Villager of Daming

Chapter 207 It's true that members serve meals (fourth update)
One water crosses the two capitals, the sound of boats and oars.The mountains and rivers are used for painting paper, and the sun and moon are used for paintings.Wild geese fly in the south, and rivers support ice in the north.Wanmin is hired here, fearless of the wind of rolling curtains.

The Danqing Library was officially opened without cutting the ribbon or setting off firecrackers. The stairs from the first floor to the second floor were sealed off peacefully, and people went up to the second floor from the outer stairs next to it.

And the printing on the first floor will end at the end of the month, and it will be changed to another place at that time, using new copper movable type.

The students publicized the opening of the library and the situation inside it to everyone in Nanjing within a day.

Scholars, rich or poor, rushed to the library one after another to see what books were in it.

Poor students feel that they have found their roots, have a place where they can sleep without spending money, and can read books immediately after waking up. Is there anything happier than this?

Therefore, when it snowed again the next day, the students who had slept well last night volunteered to clean the streets and tidy up the library.

The people who come back can't let the library be dirty by stepping on the snow. They cherish this place very much.

From ancient times to the present, I have never heard of any dynasty that opened the library to everyone, and the key is that it does not require money.

Rich students immediately feel the comfort of the private room after looking at the books on the bookshelf.

The single rooms are divided into one, two, and three, of which there are three after the two and three, and there are a lot of one, and one, two, and three correspond to the imperial examination.

No one doesn't want to get a first-class room, and the rooms of the second-class and third-class rooms are not expected to be entered by anyone, and they are used as a foil.

It is impossible for the poor to enter, and the rich would rather bite their teeth and buy a first-class room than a second-class room.

"Why doesn't this door open? What's it like inside?" Someone dressed in silk and satin asked, pointing to the end of a corridor and looking at what should be a large room.

The children from Xiaqiu Village came to help out temporarily, and the little girl was in charge of this place. She smiled sweetly: "No way! You have to become a member. This door is actually a corridor, and there are three houses."

"What's a membership? Isn't it just money? Look at the clothes I'm wearing, and then look at you...you look pretty too!" The person who asked carefully looked at the little girl in charge of the service.

He may have been confused by looking at the house just now, or he thought that he was the richest in this library after seeing other poor students.

"Thank you! Get a junior membership first, spend at the library for three months, and the minimum monthly consumption is more than [-] coins, you can upgrade to a senior membership.

Upgraded to a senior member!Then you can bid for the three room qualifications for the next day.

You can stay for three days at a time, and bid again after three days. All food and drinks here are free! "

When the little girl introduced, the other party frowned and listened. He didn't understand many words, but he could guess the general meaning.

It means staying for three months, spending [-] guan, and guaranteeing [-] guan a month, before you can live in it by buying.

this money...

"Is there... anything to say?" The man felt sorry for money.

"Okay! Let me tell you! Don't look at the top-ranking houses, this is even better. It's the No. [-] house, No. [-] house, and Tanhua house."

The little girl lowered her voice and quietly told the other party.

"Since the first-class house I live in is not a real first-class house, why do I still live in it?" The man was angry.

"You can live here! The ones below don't cost money. If you look at it from the top down, it's such a big place. It's a shop." The little girl still smiled.

"Where do I live with them? What kind of member, come here." He compromised.

"Okay! Come with me." The little girl bounced and walked ahead.

"Hey! Didn't you say that there are red sleeves to add fragrance? How much do you pay?" He thought this girl was quite cute.

"I won't be here tomorrow! We didn't have time to find someone today, and our children from Xiaqiu Village will take over for the day. You can't do anything with Hongxiu Tianxiang! You can't afford to be caught!"

The little girl blinked mischievously as she spoke, she did it on purpose, and she learned this tone when Brother Hanhan was joking.What else is the word 'pro', she is embarrassed to say.

The other friends also completed the reception tasks very well, selling many membership cards, one card ten cards, and accepting silver and gold payment methods.

Otherwise, go back and find a way to move the copper coins here, the ten copper coins are very heavy.

……

"Hanhan, how about making money this way? I feel guilty." The chief asked in a room of the library.

"The last imperial examination will be held next year. I don't know when the next one will be. Those who can apply for a membership card are wealthy households, which is different from those who eat cold steamed buns and get hot water.

They are indispensable by the Qinhuai River. We provide them with services, and if they spend money, what's the problem?
The decoration of a room is at least more than 100 guan, plus the location next to the Nanjing Imperial City, they are worth the money. "

Zhu Wentian didn't think it was expensive, so he bought a membership card for [-] yuan, and he could refund it if he didn't want it.

The rich enjoy the services, the library makes money, and can subsidize poor students. The society is like this. Those who make more money pay more taxes, and those who cannot survive have nursing homes.

Why did Zhu Yuanzhang rebel?I can't live anymore.

"What are you going to do next?" The chief dismissed the question.

"Write a letter to the prince, and prepare to transport ice from the north, but it is not possible now, the ice is not thick enough.

Collecting and sending the ice from there can benefit many people.

It is cheaper to dig ice cellars outside Nanjing and store the imported ice for use when it is hot next year than to make ice with saltpeter.

People's needs are not only full of food, but also enjoyment. Rich people like to keep money at home, so let's find a way to ask them to spend it to enjoy life. "

Zhu Wentian pushed for the next step, and even sold good medicinal materials for the rich in the future to treat their illnesses.

"I'll write it later, our village will have more money next year, what should we do?"

Li Chang looked embarrassed, he didn't want to have too much cash in his hands, he was afraid before, but now he knows that money must be circulated, and the money will rust in the warehouse?

"Don't worry, if you want to spend it, you can spend it soon. It is agreed that you will raise ducks and geese, and then build roads when the Rouge River is connected."

"Yes, road construction, road construction costs a lot of money, but it can also make money for those involved in road construction."

"In the future, we will have to pay for the construction of the imperial palace in Beiping. We must participate in it and leave a good location to open a store."

"Then I'm leaving." The chief was relieved, turned and went out.

……

The lunch is delivered, and the dishes cooked separately for the membership card holders are gifts for the membership holders.

A box lunch worth three pennies is given to students with little money to celebrate the official opening of the Danqing Library.

Zhu Wentian and his friends ran downstairs to have lunch with the students who lived here yesterday, for three Wen.

"Why do you also eat this?" The student next to him was very puzzled.

Everyone already knows that the Danqing Library and other businesses belong to Xiaqiu Village, and the children and teenagers who temporarily helped to entertain them today are from the village.

You can tell how rich you are by the clothes you wear, not to mention the jewelry you wear.

"This dish is delicious. There is a bit of meat in the vegetarian dish. When frying, we use oil. It tastes the same when we fry it ourselves."

A child gives the answer naturally, the food is not bad.
