Rebirth of the Imperial Examination: The Empress of the Impoverished Family
Chapter 19 Investing in Yourself
Chapter 19 Investing in Yourself
The next day, Jiang Jin still went out.
What she told A Niang was to send the copied books to the bookstore and see if there is any need.
Chengbei Street.
In the alley at noon, people are resting at home after eating.
Even the shops doing business on the road were scattered here and there, and the originally lively streets and alleys were only quiet at this time.
Jiang Jin led Qingshan down the street, occasionally one or two dozed off woke up instantly when they saw her, and hurriedly kept a close eye on his stall.
She ignored these people and went straight to the distant study at the end of the street.
Pushing open the wooden door, there was a sound of "ding bell", and the simple and unsophisticated book fragrance accompanied by warmth blew away the cold wind on Jiang Jin's body.
When the two entered the room, they saw the boss at the counter rubbing his eyes and stood up.
The boss regained his energy instantly after seeing the person coming, and opened his slender eyes hard to show a flattering smile, "Why did Master Jin come in person this time?"
"Long time no see, of course I miss you, boss."
Jiang Jin replied indifferently, and walked straight into the bookshelf, leaving Qingshan behind to make a deal with the boss.
There is a large square table at the front of the bookshelf, on which there are various annotation books about the Four Books and Five Classics and some articles written by students who took the middle school entrance examination in previous years.
This is the main purpose of her visit today. Just looking at the annotations is not enough to understand, she still needs a lot of thinking.
After the money and goods were cleared there, the boss also noticed that Jiang Jin was reading a book, and became suspicious.
Could it be that this little bastard is really thinking about it as rumored?
He rubbed his hands and stepped forward, tentatively, "The book you took was written by Mr. Wei, who passed the provincial examination the year before last. He studied at Shanju Academy. If you want to be admitted here, there is nothing wrong with taking this book."
Jiang Jin glanced at the name on the book cover in surprise.
Wei Youyao?
The name sounds a little familiar.
Jiang Jin frowned and couldn't remember this person, so he simply asked, "This young master is still studying in the academy now? Do you know his temper?"
She originally wanted to ask which company it was from, but after thinking about it, she thought it was inappropriate, so she changed the way of asking.
"Yes!" The boss showed some admiration when he said this, "Mr. Wei has a gentle temper. Although he is the prefect, he is humble and polite."
The boss was still talking about it, but Jiang Jin didn't want to listen anymore.
Young Master Zhifu, be humble and polite?
Jiang Jin shook her head. She still remembered that a few days before she fell into the water, she simply put on a sack and beat him because the magistrate was too stingy.
She felt sorry for the book in her hand for a while, so how could a person write such a clear article.
The boss was quite winky, seeing that Jiang Jin didn't like listening to it anymore, he changed the subject, "Master Jin, do you want to buy a copy and take it home to read?"
Jiang Jin shook her head. She didn't plan to buy it home. This book is quite expensive, so I can only write it down and study the transparency of it when I get home.
The boss didn't let go, "You are a regular customer, I will give you a 40% discount for the small ones, and you can take [-] yuan away."
"Forty?"
"Yes, it usually sells for fifty cents, but in our relationship, the small ones don't make you money!"
What surprised Jiang Jin wasn't the hair-plucking of the iron rooster boss, but the price of the book.
The books she copied on weekdays can earn ten yuan, a little more than fifteen.
And if it is sold in bookstores, the printed version will be doubled, and the handwritten copy will be tripled.
Although movable type printing was invented in the previous dynasty, the printing effect is not as clear as that of hand copying when clay blocks and wood blocks are used today, so the price will be slightly cheaper.
And the exercise book in my hand is not half as thin as other books, it is still a printed version, and the original price is only [-] yuan.
This name is really useful.
It's not that she didn't think about selling the copied book by herself, but in the later stage, considering the start-up cost and credit, she gave up on selling the book.
However, Jiang Jin's idea came up again now.
If she also passed the exam, wouldn't the price of her book also go up?
It seems that the best investment is herself.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jin flicked through the exercise set more quickly, and declined the boss's kindness after reading all of them, and left the academy with Qingshan.
Leaving the boss alone to watch the figure disappearing at the door in a daze.
It is said that Young Master Jin's brain is broken, and it looks like it is indeed as rumored.
He put the book that Jiang Jin had flipped over back to its original position, this is his cash cow!
I have to find a way to find some articles from Mr. Wei.
Jiang Jin who went out did not go home directly.
She turned a corner and went straight into the casino.
"Master Jin, I haven't seen you for a while." The sharp-mouthed monkey-cheeked steward bowed and flattered, rubbing his thumb and index finger with one hand, "What do you want to play today?"
"Nothing to play."
Jiang Jin lifted his legs to go in, the whole casino was in chaos, mixed with fish and dragons.
There is no work to do in winter, and people go to this place when they are free.
"Don't." The steward's face was wrinkled like a melon, and he followed Jiang Jin closely, "The little one looks forward to the stars and the moon, and I hope you are here. If you don't play, the little one will be sad."
"Ah?"
Jiang Jin smiled.
She ate meat and brought the steward to drink soup, so the stewards here were eager to curry favor when they saw her coming.
"Yes." The manager clapped his hands excitedly, "How about a hand?"
"No." Jiang Jin took out a piece of silver and put it in his hand, "Give the young master a box."
Seeing that she really didn't intend to play, the manager was a little frustrated but didn't dare to offend too much, and asked tentatively while leading the way, "Are you really going to test Shanju Academy?"
"It really can't be more true."
The steward opened the door and invited Jiang Jin in. Just as he was about to step in, Jiang Jin stopped him, "Hey, let's send it here."
"do not……"
The steward looked flattering, "Then you won't come anymore?"
"It is estimated that there will be few coming, what are you going to do?"
Jiang Jin hugged his chest a little helplessly.
The reason why she chose to come to the casino was to confuse Jiang Weishi and Gu Momo, she really didn't want to play.
The entrance exam is coming soon, she has no such leisurely mind.
"Look..." The steward rubbed his hands like a fly, "Can you teach me how to play cards?"
Jiang Jin grinned, "Bring me a set of pens and ink, and I'll tell you."
"okay!"
When the steward took the pen and ink and was about to enter the house, Qing Shan took it directly.
Jiang Jin also told the management method without hesitation, "2 out, 3 against, 4 behind, 5 surrender, 32 cards, 2 dice, you have to calculate the appearance of each point."
After she finished speaking, she closed the door with a "snap" to isolate the person in charge from the outside.
The manager still wanted to ask again, but when he thought of Qingshan's fierce face, he swallowed his saliva and turned around, and when he met other people, he dismissed them impatiently.
He still couldn't understand what Jiang Jin said.
And Jiang Jin didn't think about what the manager would think.
She let out a tired breath and leaned directly on the couch to rest.
Her posture is incompatible with the furnishings in the room, but her relaxed sitting posture is indescribably integrated with this place.
And Qingshan arranged the pen and ink on the table.
All afternoon, Jiang Jin carefully wrote down the exercise sets she read in the bookstore in front of this desk.
She stuffed things into her mind like swallowing jujubes, she still can't fully understand, she needs to study slowly.
When she finally finishes writing, Qingshan will put away the refreshments and put away the paper she wrote by moving the gap between her neck.
Jiang Jin got up and took a sip of tea, looked at the darkening sky outside, "There is still no movement at Taohong?"
"No, I think it's unusual for her to be quiet."
"What you said is that Taohong is stable, but her ambition is also the greatest. How can she not struggle?"
"Keep watching, I'm worried that something will happen on the day of the entrance exam."
Jiang Jinwu's dark eyes showed coldness, and the hand rubbing the rim of the cup slowly tightened, "If I were her, I would die if I didn't die."
