Farmhouse Imperial Examination Road

Chapter 36

Su Liuyu was called to the gate of Qinshan Academy by her classmates, and found that Carpenter Wang seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and when she saw Su Liuyu, she hurried up to meet her.

"Uncle Wang, I trouble you to go so far." Su Liuyu was also very happy. Although this thing is not needed now, it is always good to have something for self-defense.

Her life is precious, and no one wants to have any accidents.

"No trouble, no trouble, my blacksmith brother did it, take a look."

Su Liuyu took it, opened it, and immediately became happy.

It was exactly as expected, not only that, but I also made ten at a time, and packed it in a pocket-sized brocade, which was very convenient.

"That's it. Thank you, Uncle Wang. I'm interested." Su Liuyu thanked her with a smile, and then said, "Uncle Wang, can the pencil I made last time be mass-produced?"

multitudinous?
Carpenter Wang thought for a while and nodded: "Large batches are possible, but recently there are not many graphite mined, but making thousands of pieces is not a problem."

Thousands of sticks are enough.

"Then do as much as you can, and I'll give you a deposit first."

Pencils are not troublesome to Carpenter Wang, and the materials are not very rare, and Su Liuyu needs a large quantity, so he is willing to take on the job.

At first, it was just for fun, but it will be mass-produced and the price must be carefully negotiated.

Su Liuyu was going to sell for [-] Wen, so he started talking about [-] Wen each, but was directly rejected by Carpenter Wang.

"How can this thing cost twenty coins? Brother Yu, we are all honest people, and we can't cheat you. Besides, you want so much, I will definitely make a lot of money. How about it, ten coins each, you see Woolen cloth."

Carpenter Wang calculated the cost. Except for graphite, which is a little more expensive, other materials are easy to talk about.

It is of course best to be cheap, Su Liuyu thought about the close cooperation in the future, so she is not polite.

"Okay, Uncle Wang, don't worry, you believe that I will be able to sell it, and there will be more cooperation in the future."

Carpenter Wang smiled with a simple and honest face: "Okay, uncle, wait, the five thousand pieces will be given to you in about two months."

Su Liuyu nodded, ordered 40 pencils, paid a deposit of ten taels of silver, and left [-] taels to pay after delivery.

Last time, the teaching money earned 27 taels, and then Su Liuyu earned about 15 taels for the one-month training of the Assault Devil.

But Su Liuyu left 20 taels for Lin Xiuyun last time when she went home, and it took another [-] taels to make the crossbow bolts, plus the [-] taels deposit that she had just predicted for Carpenter Wang, now Su Liuyu has only [-] taels of silver in total.

In the past, Class B and Class D took classes together, but now because of the reason of living in the school, the classes of Class D are no longer available. If I teach myself for two months, it will only be 30 taels of silver.

At least twelve taels.

Su Liuyu was depressed.

But I don't want to ask someone to borrow it. Twelve taels is not a small amount, Yu Liang only has three taels a month, and the other students are about the same as Yu Liang except for Lin Fei who has a little more.

After much deliberation, for things like borrowing money, you have to find your own cheap master.

At present, the probability of using Class A pencils has been greatly increased.

Especially when handing in homework.

At the beginning, some teachers were a little afraid that the students would waste their brush calligraphy like this.

But I have to admit that this pencil also has the advantages of a pencil. It is not only convenient, but also fast in efficiency, so the teachers of each subject also acquiesced in the practice of the students in the class.

People in other class A also heard about this kind of pen by chance.

Because Su Liuyu directly drew a lifelike portrait in the calligraphy and painting class, the Academy was shocked once again.

This kind of portrait is too real, and Yu Liang is the one who touches him the most. If they are a catcher, if they have the skill of drawing, they will definitely earn more money in catching prisoners in the future.

So there are even more people asking about pencils.

Originally it was scheduled to start selling next week, but Carpenter Wang said it would take two months, and it was the Peach Blossom Banquet at that time.

Unlike Qinshan Academy, most of other academies are poor students who can't afford to study. Su Liuyu believes that this kind of pen will be a big hit.

"Liuyu, I'm scheduled to start work on the printing workshop next month, just in time for the Peach Blossom Banquet."

Su Liuyu also had the same idea.

"That's just right, I can still sell my pens at the Peach Blossom Banquet, but I have a little difficulty, can master help me?"

Shen Huaizhou was a little surprised.

This apprentice who has always been a ghost is also in trouble?

"What difficulty?" he asked.

"Hey, I just want to borrow ten taels of silver from Master. I need it urgently. I will return it to you after the peach blossom feast."

Su Liuyu smiled a little embarrassedly.

Shen Huaizhou suddenly felt a little guilty.

He knew that Su Liuyu's family was not well off, so he tried to satisfy her as much as possible in terms of external things.

But he ignored this age. In front of a group of young people, he was embarrassed by the embarrassment of his pocket.

I have always known that this apprentice is strong, and I will never speak to him unless it is absolutely necessary.

Previously, Su Liuyu kept clamoring to make money, but now he somewhat understands.

"I'll let Shi'an give you 100 taels of silver later, if you don't have enough money, go directly to the accountant of the study to get it." Shen Huaizhou said in a warm voice.

"It doesn't need that much, just ten taels is enough. I ordered someone to order, and I will return it to Master when the Peach Blossom Banquet is sold."

Shen Huaizhou nodded, knowing that Su Liuyu wanted face, he didn't refuse at this moment.

It's just that he took it to heart, and decided to let the imitation be processed quickly, so that he could give Su Liuyu some pocket money in the name of selling books.

Two months later, the peach blossom banquet was held as scheduled.

Qinshan Academy selected more than 20 students from class A to go to exchange together.

This peach blossom banquet was held in an aristocratic garden.

It is similar to Suzhou gardens, but much larger than Suzhou gardens. It is a big house with four entrances and four exits.

I heard that it used to be the ancestral home of an official, but it was abandoned after the official was promoted.

No one in this small town could afford such a big house, so the government used it as entertainment for some parties.

As soon as you enter the garden, you will come to the back garden through the exquisite promenade.

The back garden is built next to the lake, and there is an elegant pavilion in the center, surrounded by students from all over the place. Because it is a class with a letter A, there are not many young people. They are all about eighteen or nineteen years old, and some are even older. Yes, they are all 25 and six years old.

Those students were wearing school uniforms. The school uniforms of White Deer Academy were light blue, gentle and elegant, while those of Wenqing Academy were black and white, with an excellent temperament.

When all the students saw Qinshan Academy approaching, they all stopped discussing and looked over curiously.

Su Liuyu and others were led by Shen Huaizhou, Lin Shu and the dean.

As soon as they entered the door, the deans of each academy greeted each other, and everyone also took their seats.

The back garden is huge, but I heard that there are more than one exchange contests in the Peach Blossom Banquet, this place is just a waiting seat for admission.

Then, students from several academies rushed over one after another, and everyone was completely present, and the peach blossom feast finally began.
