Chapter 143

"Langjun, Xiaodikeng is from Sanwei Bookstore, Dongshi. This bookstore has exclusively printed and published new books. If you are interested, please go and have a look!"

There are a group of children in the Beijing China Zijian, the Imperial College, and the entrances of various private school halls recently!

It is not accurate to say that children are mostly in their early teens, all of whom are half-aged boys. Although they are not good at dressing, they are all very clean. Everyone holds a piece of cut paper in their hands and sends them to everyone.

These children all had smiles on their faces, spoke politely, and did not force anyone to accept them. Almost all the people who were stopped took the flyer and looked at it. Some of them were kind or curious, after reading the flyer, they would ask about the location of the bookstore and ask about any new books.

These children thought they had been trained in advance, and most of them could answer questions, but when asked about any new books, they all smiled and replied: "The young man was ignorant of the words and could not answer them. If the man was interested, he could go to the store to take a look."

Some people are concerned about the books sold in the bookstore, and some are the novelties of the flyers they receive. The child who pulled the flyers asked: "What font is this? The horizontal lines are thin and thick, the strokes are horizontal and vertical, with clear edges and corners, which look like regular scripts and non-list scripts and seal scripts. Is it never seen before? There is also this book page... It looks like it is printed, not handwritten, is it woodblock printing?"

The child who sent the leaflet smiled and said, "I'm going to go back to my husband. When I came, my boss said that if I ask, please tell me. I heard that this is called printing, not produced by woodblock printing, but a different printing method. My boss said that the books published by our Sanwei Bookstore are cheap and clear. You guys are welcome to go and buy and collect them."

There was a middle-aged scholar in the crowd holding a flyer in his hand. He flicked the flyer gently, walked over and asked, "Sanwei Bookstore... I just looked at the printing and fonts and wanted to see it. But, what is Sanwei?"

"Little one knows!"

"The little one knows it too!"

A group of children were chirping, and a tall and strong child jumped and replied, "The so-called three flavors, reading the scriptures tastes like rice... What does rice come from?"

Perhaps because there were many people around him, the child had never seen a big scene, and he was nervous for a moment and forgot the words he memorized. His face turned red with an anxious face. The middle-aged scholar smiled and encouraged him, "Don't be anxious, don't be afraid, just think about it slowly."

It was fine if I didn't comfort me, but after comforting, the child became even more anxious. While scratching his ears and cheeks, he looked around and quickly pulled out a fair and beautiful boy in the crowd, and said anxiously: "Brother Rong carries the best and fastest, Brother Rong says!"

The young man named Rong Ge'er patted his hand and told him to be calm. Then he bowed to the middle-aged scholar and said, "When I say that, the so-called Sanwei is written on the wall at the entrance of the bookstore. Reading the scriptures is as delicious as rice and beams, reading history is as delicious as food, and reading various schools of thought like vinegar. The name of the bookstore is Sanwei, which tells you that there are all collections of classics, history and literature in the bookstore, and everything is included."

"What a three-flavor! Wonderful and wonderful! Just because these three-flavor words make the boss a rare talented person, it is worth checking out."

The middle-aged scholar applauded. The beautiful young man said, "I'm not hiding it from my seniors. I'm not from the bookstore. I'm just recruiting the boss to help distribute flyers. The boss's talent is not only here. He also carved a pair of peach talismans on the shop door of the bookstore, saying, "The most joy is silent and only filial piety and brotherhood, and the taste of the soup is to read."

"Okay! What a 'the most joyful and silent only filial piety, and the taste of the soup is reading'. This peach talisman is worth savoring carefully. What a Sanwei Bookstore, Rong Xiaolang, is this bookstore open?"

The young man named Rong Xiaolang replied respectfully: "Go to senior, three days later, the first day of the July 1st, the auspicious day of the zodiac, everything is suitable. It is the day when the bookstore is open. If the uncle has free time, he can come and take a closer look."

"Okay, I'll definitely go and have a look."

The middle-aged scholar agreed, and his expression of interest was very obvious.

Such scenes and dialogues are all staged in Chang'an City, places with many scholars. Some people couldn't help but look at the store of Sanwei Bookstore. The door was closed and had not opened yet, and the plaque on the front of the door had not been opened, but the peach talisman hanging on both sides of the door had been exposed, and it was indeed written-

The ultimate joy is silent and only filial piety and brotherhood, and the taste of the soup is reading.

On both sides of the store door are two snow-white walls, and the wall on the left is written with the three flavors of the store name Sanwei Bookstore. Then, it is written that reading history makes people wise, reading poetry makes people smart, mathematics makes people precise, philosophy makes people profound, and moral makes people well-educated.

On the right, some verses to persuade them to read are excerpted—

How about the joy of reading? The grass in front of the window is full of green;

The joy of reading is endless, and the song of the Yaoqin comes to soothe the wind;

The joy of reading is filled with joy, and the moon rises and the sky is high;

Where can I find the joy of reading? Count the plum blossoms in the heart of the world.

Next to the poem, there are several sentences:

Books are just medicine, and good reading can cure fools; reading is colorful and beautiful than Westerners. I never tire of reading old books for hundreds of times, and I will know that they are meticulous. Finally, it seems like a summary, and I wrote a sentence in almost vernacular, knowledge is power.

The words on white background are not the best, but the book is shocking. Many people stood in front of these two walls, many scholars, looking at them for a long time, thinking blankly. Some people laughed, some people cried, and some people cried and laughed. All kinds of strange things and various patterns depend on their personal mentality.

Until it was dark, many people were still lingering and refused to leave. It was not until the curfew that the Jinwu Guard began patrolling the streets. He woke up from his dream and was still confused when he was caught. Or there was an addicted person who was still scolding the Jinwu Guard for disturbing him to appreciate good sentences.

There were too many people arrested for curfew. At this time, they actually alarmed Wu and called the General of Jinwu Guard to ask. Seeing the general of Jinwu Guard, he looked like a constipated black face, and replied: "I have interrogated him overnight. Those who attacked curfew yesterday were arrested in the East City. They all said that the reason for the curfew was to appreciate the good sentences on the wall of an unopened bookstore, and they were too addicted to the customs."

Wushi Daqi: "The bookstore that has not been opened? Is it He Jiaqu? It actually has this effect? ​​Come and check it out and give it back quickly."

Shangguan Wan'er, who was serving on the side, heard that it was an unopened bookstore. When she remembered that Zhang Changzong also said she wanted to open a bookstore, she couldn't help but feel a bad premonition in her heart. She took the opportunity to ask General Jinwu Guard: "General, how dare you ask what the unopened bookstore is called?"

The general replied: "The store name plaque has not been revealed yet, but the arrested Confucian scholars said that the store name has been widely publicized, saying that it is called Sanwei Bookstore."

really!

Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but hold her forehead and smiled bitterly, and turned around without hesitation to apologize: "Please punish the empress dowager!"
