Chapter 707 Pen and Ink Are Expensive
Su Qingyue plans to buy [-] catties of pork, five live chickens and five live ducks each. She fry four catties of pork at noon every day, and occasionally kill a chicken or duck. She will then go to the stream to catch some fresh fish, or fry The dried fish is dried, so that the food is not monotonous.And she only needs to come to the town two or three times to buy vegetables.

The three brothers of the Xiao family are all hardworking and eager to learn. Although it has only been less than ten days, they can already write simple characters like 'one, two, three, four, five...up, middle, down, big and small...'.

However, everyone's talent is different, and the third and fourth brothers are obviously faster than the second brother.

Long-term use of sand table to practice handwriting, although saving money, but pen and paper is definitely needed to practice handwriting.

Su Qingyue walked into a bookstore.

The bookshelves of the bookstore are full of all kinds of books, but the types are far less modern.

The store owner saw that Su Qingyue was wearing lake green embroidered clothes, the material of the clothes was also above average, and she should be someone who could afford books, so he greeted warmly, "Girl, what do you want to buy?"

"An inkstone, ink, three brushes, and three stacks of rice paper," she said, "a copy of "Thousand Character Classic", "Three Character Classic", and "The Analects of Confucius."

Thousand-character text is a thousand different characters, common characters, with annotations.

She intends to learn according to the Thousand Character Classic, and after the teaching is over, the second brother and the others will know almost all the common characters, the Three Character Classic and the Analects, and then teach them after they finish recognizing the characters.

In this way, her task as a teacher is almost the same.No matter how deep it is, if they are still interested, they can go to the school to study.

The store owner smiled when he heard this, "You want quite a lot." On the counter, there were several finely crafted pens hanging on the pen holder, and a few ordinary-looking pens stuck upside down in several bamboo tubes, "There are many pens in the inkstone. The ones made of stone and the better ones are made of jade. There are two types of ink, the expensive one is three times the ordinary price, and the paper is also bad..."

Su Qingyue listened to the introduction, "Give me the cheapest one, there's no need to buy the expensive one." In other words, I don't have the money to buy the expensive one for now.

"Fifty pens for a pen, [-] pens for ink, [-] pens for a stack of rice paper, and [-] pens for an inkstone." The shop owner quickly flipped the abacus beads, ""Thousand Characters" and "San Zi Jing" are [-] pens each. Wen, "The Analects of Confucius" seven hundred texts."

Su Qingyue's eyebrows knotted when she heard this, "It's so expensive..."

"It's all at this price." The store owner said, "The purchase price is also very expensive. If you don't believe me, go to another store and ask, it may be a few cents more expensive than mine."

"How many sheets of rice paper are in a stack?" she asked.

"One hundred."

The last time she saw Liang Lizheng cherishing pen and ink so much, she thought it was Shi Ran, a scholar. It turns out that it is so expensive, and not only scholars should cherish it.She also inquired about it, and found out that the price of pen and paper is really high.

She thought for a while, "I don't want the Three Character Classic, give me two more stacks of rice paper."

The shop owner dialed the beads on the abacus again, "It adds up to 2000, two hundred and fifty cash, which is more than two and a half."

She counter-offered, "If you buy so much at once, let's forget about the fraction of fifty Wen."

"It can't be wiped off so much, so I'll give you [-] cents cheaper. You weren't considered expensive in the first place."

"Okay." She looked at the bookshelf, "Then can I have a look at your books? I want to see if there is anything else I want to buy."

"Yes." The store owner confessed, "You have to be careful when you turn the pages of the book, you will have to pay for any damage."

"No problem." Su Qingyue walked to the bookshelf, took out a three-character classic, and flipped through the pages quickly. She could memorize the book by heart. After looking at the layout, she planned to write a copy by herself. , nailed with thread.
