Chapter 145: Wanshu Pavilion Continues to Be Popular

It’s not Zhang Yulin’s fault. The Zhang family has many literary books.

Aristocratic families would not collect non-literary books like this. In the eyes of aristocratic families, these books have no value worth inheriting. After all, these books are not like literature, which can be immortal.

Therefore, even if Zhang Yulin had talent in this area, he could not find any books on the subject, nor could he find any in the market.

He couldn't ask the people from the Ministry of Industry to teach him. What was the difference between that and taking off his pants and standing naked in front of everyone?

He had read and memorized the only books on water conservancy in his home.

How could he not be excited when he first heard about this subject? He was so excited that he almost went crazy!

"I spent a lot of time, effort and money to collect those books. I won't sell them!"

"However, you can come to the second floor of Wanshu Pavilion to read books often. You only need to pay one or two taels of silver for half a day and you can browse at will." Cheng Cheng said, pointing to the surrounding rooms.

“Those boxes can be used for you to read, study, or even draw and take notes.”

"But you are not allowed to take anything out of the Wanshu Pavilion. The only thing you can take out is the knowledge in your head. Once you break the agreement, the Wanshu Pavilion will no longer welcome anyone associated with you."

Zhang Yulin could understand these regulations.

To put it bluntly, you can read my books, but you cannot copy them.

In other words, Wanshuge wants exclusivity, and these books will always belong to Wanshuge.

However, Zhang Yulin understood that if it was his book, he would probably keep it hidden and not show it to anyone.

"Okay, if I pay now, can I read the book now?"

Zhang Yulin was quite curious about this, and he couldn't wait to read the books that attracted him so much.

"Not yet. Today, Wanshu Pavilion will only sell test papers and not do other business." Cheng Cheng reminded with a smile.

Seeing this, Zhang Yulin thought about it and decided to buy a complete set of papers.

Just as Zhang Yulin was leaving Wanshu Pavilion, the manager of Wanshu Pavilion suddenly came out and spoke to the people who were still queuing.

"Everyone, since it's getting late, our store has decided not to have people line up in front of us anymore and will sell books directly at the door."

As they spoke, people began to carry piles of books and place them inside the gate one after another.

There were more guards standing at the door, and the people who were originally maintaining order outside the building also stood at the gate.

The steward picked up three thin books and turned the covers to the people outside the door.

"As you all know, many people have already bought things on the second floor. As for what they bought, please see here."

As he spoke, the steward took out three books and displayed them one by one.

"'Jingyao 20th Year Volume', 'Jingyao 17th Year Volume', 'Jingyao 14th Year Volume'."

"These are the books they bought. They are the examination papers of previous years. Each book costs seven taels of silver, and each person can buy up to three. Anyone who wants to buy, please come forward and buy. You can pay for the books and receive the books at the same time."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole street fell silent. The next second, with a loud bang, the entrance to the Wanshu Pavilion was crowded with people.

"I want!"

“I want three!”

"Hey, this is silver, I want the test paper!"

“I want three!”

The entrance of Wanshu Pavilion was packed with people in an instant.

Everyone had silver in their hands, waving it around, and trying to squeeze forward with red faces, excitedly.

The whole street was in chaos in an instant.

The people of Jingzhao Yin were stunned, not knowing what was happening. They only knew that in an instant, the whole street was boiling.

Everyone was shouting, "I want one." "I want three."

The whole street was so noisy that even the owners who had originally gone back to their shops came out to watch.

"what happened?"

"I don't know? What's going on?"

"It just happened suddenly. What happened? Why are those scholars so crazy?"

Even the people from Jingzhao Yin looked confused.

"What happened? Why did they all suddenly run away and crowd towards the entrance of Wanshu Pavilion?"

"I don't know, I didn't hear it clearly, did you hear it clearly?"

"No, what did you say? Why are you so excited all of a sudden?"

"What's going on? What on earth did this Wanshu Pavilion do?"

Li Li also looked at the gate of Wanshu Pavilion with a strange expression.

However, thinking of the relationship with Wanshu Pavilion, Li Li decided not to move for the time being. If Wanshu Pavilion did not ask for help, he would not move.

What if he offended the people behind Wanshu Pavilion? The Prime Minister and Old Zhang, two important officials in the court, were extremely powerful and a small figure like him could not afford to offend them.

At the same time, Zhang Yulin, who had already walked out of the street, was looking at the street in front of Wanshu Pavilion, which was suddenly crowded with people, in shock.

second floor,

Looking at the crazy scholar below, Cheng Cheng's mouth twitched.

"Will this really not cause any trouble? In fact, we can keep Zhang Yulin and not let him leave."

Gu Jue took a sip of tea and casually warmed his hands with the hand warmer.

"fine."

"There won't be any trouble. We have no reason to keep Zhang Yulin. If he wants to leave, let him go."

"For the sake of those books, he won't tell anyone what Wanshu Pavilion is selling. But if they continue to queue up like this, it's hard to say whether something unexpected will happen."

"In that case, why not muddy the waters completely and drag everyone down with it."

"Indeed, only by muddying the waters and dragging everyone into it can we be safe and this matter will not develop in a bad direction. Moreover, it won't be long before all the scholars in Yanjing have a copy of the exam papers from previous years. It is unlikely that the emperor will pursue the matter." Cheng Cheng took over Gu Jue's words and looked at him proudly after his analysis, waiting for praise.

Looking at Cheng Cheng who was full of anticipation, Gu Jue chuckled, "Yes, you analyzed it all correctly, very good."

"Not only will the emperor not pursue the matter, he will approve it. Dayan needs change, not only among the people, but also in the court."

"What Wanshu Pavilion is doing now is to change Dayan for the better. No one is willing to give up their collection of books, only Wanshu Pavilion can do it, and the books are even very comprehensive."

"The emperor will only be happy to change Dayan in this way. This is the best way. It can not only suppress the power of the aristocratic families, but also enhance Dayan's national strength and the ability of court officials."

"For the emperor, this is killing three birds with one stone. It's exactly what he wants."

"So, he will definitely not care. Not only will he not care, he may even deliberately let it go."

Cheng Cheng understood, "Since the emperor won't take care of this matter, why does the prime minister need to be the backstage?"

Gu Jue drank his tea calmly.

"The Emperor doesn't have the final say in Dayan. Even if the Emperor agrees, there are still the noble families. They won't agree."

Yes, the power of the aristocratic families cannot be underestimated.

"Then, will those noble families join forces to deal with us?" Cheng Cheng was a little worried.
