Chapter 280： buy books

The bookstore in Xingyuan House is not far from the school. A row used to sell books and various school supplies. It was the first time that Bowen saw so many bookstores side by side. It was like a mouse fell into the rice warehouse. Inside, with bright eyes, he looked left and right, not sure which store to go to first.

Mu Yangling dragged Bo Wen directly to the largest bookstore.

There are two floors in the bookstore. His storefront is twice as large as that of other people's stores. It is divided into two parts. There are five rows of bookshelves on the left, which are full of books. There are even some famous calligraphy and paintings on the wall of the house, and the wall on the right is full of calligraphy and paintings on consignment. Mu Yangling looked up and found that the calligraphy and paintings on it are very good, well, at least she can understand.

In the bookstore, there are quite a few students from government schools reading in the bookstore, Xiuhong's face flushed red, and seeing that my cousin was all focused on the painting on the right wall, she shrunk behind Bowen a little timidly, but Bowen always seemed a little timid and very calm. She stepped forward and pulled out a book to read, and even patted her cousin to reassure her.

Mu Yangling, who turned around, was a little surprised when she saw this scene.

It seems that Xiuhong is still a little inferior. Although she is hot in the village, she will become timid if she encounters someone with a higher status than her. It is Bo Wen who has always been a little weak and timid. I didn't expect to be so calm. take responsibility.

Mu Yangling was very surprised.

She stepped forward and patted Xiuhong, who immediately took her cousin's hand and calmed down.

"Bowen, see for yourself what you need, we have enough money, you choose first, don't save it." Everything can be saved, but food and education cannot be saved.

Bowen responded with a smile.

Mu Yangling was about to choose the book he wanted to read. The bookstore clerk hurriedly followed and asked in a low voice, "The girl wants to buy a book? I don't know what kind of book to buy, the little one will help you find it."

Mu Yangling and the others were dressed like book buyers. Although they were wearing wolf fur coats, they were all in the style of working, not like reading people.

Mu Yangling didn't notice the man's mind, she told him that she wanted to read some history books and topographical records.

There was a guy who showed the way, and Mu Yangling quickly found the place. There were several young students standing there. Seeing the two girls approaching, they all blushed and turned slightly to avoid it.

The history books that Mu Yangling read were all from bookstores, and he really had no money to buy them. The history before the Tang Dynasty was exactly the same as the previous life, and the difference was after the Tang Dynasty.

But she only knew a rough outline of the previous history, not some specific historical events, and the history written by the ancients was different from the second-hand history they read and read in later generations, so Mu Yangling put the history books after Qin The election was taken by the recognized one.

Before the Ming Dynasty, emperors and those in power rarely interfered with the writing of history books, and there was no Ming Dynasty in this world. In terms of historical time, it did not develop to the Ming Dynasty, which is similar to the Southern Song Dynasty.

So folks can also write history books. At this time, there are more books. Fortunately, every era has the best one. Mu Yangling only needs to read that book and know the basic history.

That guy couldn't help smacking when he saw that Mu Yangling picked out four books at once.

Mu Yangling handed the book to him, and went to the description of topography and travel notes to find three books that he was interested in.

No one noticed Mu Yangling at first, but Xiao Er walked back and forth twice, and those who read the book couldn't help but look over. Seeing that Mu Yangling just picked up the book and read the first few pages and handed it to the man, they couldn't help but look at her carefully. , doesn't think she looks like someone who can afford a lot of books.

Mu Yangling's five senses are keen, and she has long noticed that people in the bookstore are looking at her. After a change in her mind, she also understands that in this era, although movable type printing and papermaking have developed very advanced, books are still very important. Expensive, because there is no such thing as piracy in this world, all books are genuine.

From this, we have to say that the ancient merchants were still very conscientious, the books were exquisite and durable, and there were few typographical errors.

Because the ancients treated books very rigorously, modern people buy books just for reading, but they buy books not only to read by themselves, but also to pass on the book, so a book, it does not only take a few years or ten years in modern times to throw away or use it as a book After the waste paper is sold, it is passed on to future generations. After decades, even hundreds of years, the book is still clearly written and the paper is undamaged.

So the book is expensive.

It is so expensive that in addition to the children of the rich, even the middle-class people can’t let go of their hands and feet to buy books.

"Dude, do you have any books on agriculture and water conservancy projects here?" Mu Yangling felt that she might grow land for the rest of her life. Have to look at the book.

The guy looked at Mu Yangling blankly, "Here, there are still books for farming?" He just heard people ask him where the "Analects of Confucius" and other open books and history books are not long ago, but no one has really asked. Where is the book of his farming.

The shopkeeper has been paying attention to this side. Hearing the words, he immediately came over and said with a smile: "The little girl is looking for something like "Qi Min Yao Shu"?"

Mu Yangling nodded with a smile, "It is this kind, and there are also books on water conservancy construction." Mu Yangling's previous life was not very good in science, but she was familiar with things like computing, so she wanted to try to see if she could You can't teach yourself some knowledge about water conservancy engineering. If you want to farm the land, you must have good water conservancy conditions.

All this is for better farming.

"This kind of book is a bit out of the way, so I put it on the second floor and I'll take the girl to find it." The shopkeeper led the way.

When everyone saw Mu Yangling come down, Mu Yangling took four more books in his hand.

The shopkeeper had two more respects for Mu Yangling. He was watching when Mu Yangling was selecting books. She chose carefully, first reading the number, then the preface, and she even randomly picked one. Chapter reading, he watched her choose these four books out of a dozen books, and these four books are the best books in agriculture and water conservancy engineering.

It can be seen that she is not blindly picked.

Mu Yangling chose what she needed, while Xiuhong found two brochures below, and excitedly said to Mu Yangling, "Cousin, I want to buy these two books to give to my sister."

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Girl, this is the most fashionable flower look this year."

Mu Yangling flipped through it, "Then buy it back." Although my mother can draw flowers by herself, it's good to see what's trendy outside.

Even with these two books, Mu Yangling chose a total of thirteen books, and Bo Wen also brought three books over, handed it to his sister with a red face, and leaned into her ear and said, "I still want to buy one. "Zhu Zi's Commentary", but it's so expensive, a copy costs twelve taels of silver."

Mu Yangling raised her eyebrows in surprise, how expensive is a copy of "Zhu Zi Annotation"?
