From wilderness to palace

Chapter 188 The Envy of the Neighboring Villagers
Listening to the sound of firecrackers coming from the ancestral tomb, the villagers in the village gradually realized that Liu Yaozu's grandparents were not ordinary.Whether it was the Xiao family who worshiped at the earliest or the current group of people, it seemed that their identities were not simple.

It is worth them traveling thousands of miles to worship in the mountains in person, which shows the identity of Liu Yaozu's grandparents.But for the old people in the village, they knew this for a long time, but they didn't know what the identity of the two of them was before they settled in the mountain village.

Only in the memory of the old people, although Liu Yaozu's grandfather and grandmother, like them, stayed in the countryside to do farming.But their speech and demeanor reveal that they are not ordinary.At that time, many villagers only thought that the two of them had read books and were educated.

Even those tourists who don't pay much attention to this matter can guess from the fact that Liu Yaozu's house prohibits strangers from entering, and they can guess that the status of those who live in Liu Yaozu's house may be either rich or noble.Although they were curious, no one went to inquire about it.

Most of the first batch of elderly people who came here were students that my grandfather taught during his lifetime.Although their relationship as teacher and student did not last long, for these professors who study history, they all remember the historical genius.

Sending away the two sisters of the Xiao family with bodyguards, Liu Yaozu asked Uncle Wu to clean up the rest of the rooms, and all those assigned to be responsible for the transcription work will be arranged to live in Liu Yaozu and Uncle Wu's house.At this time, I really can't tell for the time being.

After leading everyone to worship, Liu Yaozu did not hide anything and said very directly: "Grandpa has collected many books, including some bamboo slips. For the time being, I hope you will copy the books first and put away the classics first.

Those bamboo slips have a long history, and it is extremely difficult to preserve them.As far as I can remember, Grandpa will take good care of it every few years.The purpose is also very simple, that is, I don't want any problems with those bamboo slips.Please understand this too! "

It is clear that these people sent from above are domestic experts and scholars in the study of history.But for Liu Yaozu, those sealed bamboo slips would not be opened easily.Even in the future, he will learn relevant maintenance knowledge.

Although the words recorded on the bamboo slips can be stored on computers or books.But Liu Yaozu knew that such bamboo slips and classics are becoming rarer and rarer today.Every volume of bamboo slips is a rare book that cannot be copied.

Facing Liu Yaozu's request, everyone said very understandingly: "Understood! I didn't expect that the teacher even kept bamboo slips and books. It seems that we may have to stay here for a while this time."

"Isn't this just right? In the past, we wanted to study the history of various dynasties in depth, but we had to give up because of the lack of historical books and classics. Now the teacher has a large collection of books here. Isn't it a blessing to study it by yourself after copying it?"

"Indeed! Azu, I'm afraid we will disturb you for a while."

"It's okay! The conditions in the countryside are simple, as long as you don't mind!"

After finalizing the matter of copying historical books, Liu Yaozu first moved the entire volume of the "Yongle Dadian" from the underground library that was rarely opened.Others originally wanted to enter, but Liu Yaozu shook his head and refused.

He knew very well that if these people saw the tens of thousands of books in the library, many people would be willing to stay in the library.But for Liu Yaozu, for the time being, he doesn't want to tell the people in charge of copying all the books he owns.

The complete works of "Yongle Dadian" consisting of tens of thousands of books alone are enough for these people to study and transcribe for a period of time.This book representing the culture of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that Liu Yaozu is the only place in the world where such a complete complete collection can be found.

In other words, other libraries or academies are excited and proud to have a sub-volume of the complete collection of 'Yongle Dadian'.Then the complete works brought out by Liu Yaozu became a rare treasure in the eyes of these people.

Gu Li, Xiao Cheng's wife who led the team as the person in charge, also said solemnly: "I will trouble you for the next copying. I believe I don't need to emphasize how precious this book is. Please be sure when copying it." Be careful.”

"Director Gu, don't worry! This is the teacher's collection, we will cherish and keep it well."

Ma Zhongcheng and Hu Xinming, who also did not leave, were also extremely shocked when they saw the complete works brought out by Liu Yaozu.In fact, they were curious too.How did Grandpa Liu Yaozu bring the books here?
Fortunately, they also knew that the Liu family had many disciples and former officials.It is also possible to find some connections and entrust the other party to deliver these books.I just don't understand why the Liu family didn't leave at that time?

But as far as the two of them knew Liu Yaozu's great-grandfather, he was a stubborn and stubborn person who would rather bend than bend.To be more precise, he is an old man who truly has the bookish spirit of ancient times.

But these things, even if the two old people knew it well, they didn't tell Liu Yaozu.In their view, even telling Liu Yaozu would be useless.On the contrary, let him know about these people, I don't know what he will think then!

After moving out the complete works of "Yongle Dadian", Liu Yaozu doesn't need to worry about the rest of the work of transcribing.And his current job is to lead Liu Yaoxing and others to build the castle on the blueprint.

Young adults from neighboring villages who were invited to dig ice were also very happy to see that their wages could be settled before going home every day they worked.Some people even said: "It seems that this year, Gu Shantun has really made a fortune!"

"That's not true! I heard that people in their village receive tourists, and they can earn eighty, ninety, or hundreds of dollars a day!"

"Ah! How can you charge so much just to make a room for tourists?"

"Why not? If they go to the city to stay in a hotel or something, I'm afraid it will cost more money?"

"I really don't understand. What's so good about a place like Shantun?"

If you don't understand it, you don't understand it, but the changes in Keli Mountain Village this winter have made the neighboring villages very envious.Everyone knows that as long as there are a steady stream of tourists coming, relying on mountain villages to rely on winter tourism, they must be able to earn a lot of money.

Snow scenes like this are similar to villages, and their villages are naturally similar.The problem is, even if they charge less, they may not be able to attract tourists to visit their villages.They are destined not to make this money!
