The matter of Mrs. Niu was over, and Gu Beizhi also put it behind him. Now there is another matter in front of Gu Beizhi, and the last two hundred copper coins in his hand are gone.

In the past half month, he has added some things to the house one after another, but they are all limited by the small amount of copper coins. They are all small things, such as the oil lamp in Guanzhou House, such as the two pairs of tiger shoes on the feet of Dabao and Erbao. ,etc.

What's more, every time he came back from the town, he would bring something to eat for Master Guan Zhou, sometimes it was a few candies, sometimes it was meat buns, sometimes it was some snacks, in short, every time he went to the town Will never forget the three in the family.

At first it was intentional, but later I got used to it, and every time I didn't bring something home, I always felt weird.After going back and forth, the money in this pocket will naturally be consumed.

Although he also earns some income from copying books, compared to the speed at which he spends money, it is naturally much less.

Gu Beizhi looked at the only two copper coins left, and felt a sense of embarrassment in his heart that 'one penny can't beat a hero'.

He copied the books in the bookstore every day. At first, he could only copy two pages an hour, but now he can copy up to four pages. Even if the speed is increased, he can only finish copying a book in two days at the fastest, which is still relatively thin. Enlightenment books or story books.

If it becomes thicker, it will take longer, but it is cost-effective. He copied about two to three pages per page. He only copied during the three hours when the light was good, that is, 12 pages, and at most 36 pages. money.

The agreement with the bookstore is to settle accounts every seven days, and there are three days before the next settlement. He works hard and can copy two more copies, but if this is the case, he can't go to Antique Street.

Gu Beizhi was a little hesitant. He didn't give up his tasteless golden finger these days. After all, since he didn't understand the history of this place, having a golden finger might give him a chance of survival.

Of course, he also tried his best to understand the history of Zhao, but there are very, very few books on historical materials in the bookstore.

Not to mention the history of this dynasty, even the history of the previous dynasty is rare, there are only some hearsay and even demonized legends.

From Gu Beizhi's point of view, this can only be regarded as a story, not a real history. He shook his head, feeling very sorry, but he could only accept it.

So he pinned on antiques even more. In this lonely and strange country of Zhao, antique appreciation may be the thing he is most familiar with, and he wanted to find that vase.

After thinking about it, he never realized that he had any special places or special experiences that were enough to encounter such a magical thing of time travel. The only special thing was the vase that was completely out of line with history.

Therefore, I am certain that my time travel is inseparable from that strange vase. If I can find it, maybe I can wear it back to modern times.

Reason told himself that this chance was very slim, but he couldn't help feeling a little lucky, Gu Beizhi still lingered in those antique shops every day.

The number of appraisals he can use every day is 9 times. If Uncle Wang comes to the town, he will use up the number of appraisals, empty his energy, and spend two cents to make a bullock cart to go home. If Uncle Wang does not come , he only used it 7 times, so he won't be too mentally ill.

He could feel that each identification was an increase, just like the skill proficiency in the game, when the experience value is full, there will definitely be changes.

And the "true and fake famous paintings" he encountered at the beginning were also deciphered three days ago, which one was real and which one was fake, and it has not been removed now, and it is still hanging in that shop for people to appreciate.It has become one of the signs of the store.

If he could tell the authenticity of the calligraphy and painting, money would not be a problem, but he had observed the painting many times, and he could only see a difference in one detail, that was the inscription on the painting, and one of the strokes different.

But he didn't know what the handwriting of the real painting looked like, and naturally he couldn't judge the authenticity, so he could only press his heart to slowly enrich the knowledge he lacked.

This is also the reason why he goes for a walk around the antique street every day, even if he can't miss it, he can still know what are the most valuable antiques in this world and who are the famous people.

After thinking about it, he felt that he still couldn't give up the time to study and practice in the Antique Street. Only through hard work and perseverance could he be rich in knowledge, broaden his horizons, and cultivate a pair of sharp eyes.

There is a price to pay for everything you do, and it is not just a matter of luck.Since he wants to make a living from this, he must make [-]% efforts in advance.

But the problem of having no money was imminent. When he was worried, he suddenly remembered that tomorrow was the day to collect the May silver, which was just the time to relieve his urgent need.

So early the next morning, he took his voucher and rushed to the yamen early to collect the monthly silver and grain for this month.

"Gu Beizhi, from Wangjiazhuang Village, Huolu Town, the monthly silver is one tael, two five cents, ten catties of rice, one and a half catties of soybean oil, two catties of pork, and one piece of linen. Gu Xiucai will check it out."

Gu Beizhi had already seen it in the memory of the original owner, and knew the essentials, so he brought a backpack on his back today.

As for the original owner, he paid money for the people from the yamen to send it to his home. Huolu Town is not big, and the yamen servants don't have much food to eat. If Gu Beizhi is willing to spend money, they are naturally willing to earn extra money.

But they had long heard that the prodigal Gu Xiucai had changed, and they didn't believe it at first, but this time when they saw him carrying a backpack, they believed it to be true. They all regretted that the extra money was lost, but they had no other ideas.

There are not many things, and there is no problem for an adult man to carry it home by himself. The original owner just wanted to gain face in this way, but he didn't know that face was never given by external things. Have face.

Gu Beizhi looked at the things that had been divided. He couldn't ask the yamen servant to re-weigh them in front of him. He only checked that there were no holes or oil leaks, then put them into the back basket, took the moon silver, and left. .

"This Gu Xiucai has really changed?" A yamen servant rubbed his chin, and his words were quite regrettable. It used to be a trip to Wangjiazhuang to get fifty copper coins, but now this good thing is gone, what a pity.

The little official in charge of distributing money glanced at him, "What's the matter? Isn't it enough to take advantage of it? It's good to change it. This Gu Beizhi has a spiritual mind. If he can improve it, he will study hard for a few years. We can still take the exam and come back, and then we can also get a reward."

The yamen servant was just a pity, but he didn't have much thought, and he didn't expect much from the reward he said to the clerk. Otherwise, there would be no new candidates for three consecutive imperial examinations."

"Feng Shui is bad? What nonsense are you talking about? Chen Xiucai, Zhang Xiucai, Li Xiucai and the others were not careful and had an accident before the exam. Otherwise, they wouldn't have failed three times in a row."

The little official is not young, and he has a deep understanding of Huolu Town.

The three people he mentioned were the three with the best knowledge in the year of the imperial examination three times before, and there are a few others like Gu Beizhi who are spiritual and have a solid foundation, but due to various reasons, they have not been able to take the imperial examination in recent years. .

"Oh, that's too strange for three times in a row. I really think it's a Fengshui problem." The yamen servant rubbed his chin and said very firmly, "I should find a master to take a look and change it. Change the Feng Shui of our town."

The little official took his notebook and knocked on him, "Nonsense, if Feng Shui is not good, then Wang Qinglin and Wang Juren are fine, and Liu Juren, who was born in the first place, tell me, why are these two okay? "

"Forget about Wang Juren. How many years ago did Liu Juren win the exam? At least 20 years ago, and Wang Juren was also 12 years ago. There hasn't been a single one in these ten years..."

The yamen servant had to divide up with the little official, but the little official didn't have time to listen to his nonsense, so he pushed him out of the room and locked the door, "Come on, go to work, I'm still busy here."

Does Gu Bei know about their conversation? He is taking the receipt to the designated butcher shop to exchange two catties of meat. This is a bit like Huaguo in the 20th century. Only with a ticket can you get something...

Gu Beizhi shook his head, shook out a certain period of history that he couldn't help thinking of, and talked to the butcher at the butcher shop, and the ticket was given.

The butcher is a skilled hand. Seeing that Gu Beizhi is polite, he doesn't insist on being fat or thin like other people. He cuts a piece according to the place where Beizhi pointed, and adds a bone. .

"Gu Xiucai took it. This big bone is a good thing to take home for stewing soup. I added another one for you." The butcher spoke loudly, but deliberately lowered his voice when he added a bone.

Gu Beizhi was a little surprised. After thanking him repeatedly, he took the meat and bones and left.

He didn't delay, and went home with all his things on his back. When he got home, he was already sweating and his mouth was dry.

"Xiao Zhou, I'm back." He knocked on the door.

Guan Zhou heard the commotion and hurried over to open the door. When Gu Beizhi was not at home, he had to close the door and plug it in. This was Gu Beizhi's request. Guan Zhou didn't know the reason, so he obeyed obediently.

"Are you back? Come in quickly, I'll dry the water for you, and I'll bring it to you." Guan Zhou lowered his head habitually, and his voice was still quiet, but he was much more cheerful than when he didn't dare to make a sound at the beginning.

In particular, he was very careful, and estimated the time to hang the water on the air, so that when Gu Beizhi came back, he could drink water at the right temperature.

Gu Beizhi put the things at the door of the kitchen, took the bowl Guan Zhou handed over and drank water, "Xiao Zhou, I took ten catties of rice, a little oil and two catties of meat, and the uncle at the butcher shop also gave me a bone. Let the bones be stewed today."

"Hey, I got it, I'll stew it in a while." Guan Zhou took the bowl back and added another bowl of water.

Gu Beizhi was feeling a little thirsty, Guan Zhou had already poured a second bowl of water for him, showing a little smile, this time he really quenched his thirst, "By the way, there is also Yueyin, a total of one, two, two, five, a change I'll keep it as pocket money, you can keep the one or two, and don't be reluctant to buy anything." Gu Beizhi divided the money into two parts, kept the lesser part for himself, and gave the larger part to Guan Zhou, and asked him to treat it as his own. household.He gave it calmly, and said, "I usually buy what I want, and it's hard work to take care of the children all day, so I should reward myself."

Guan Zhou was silent for a while, and finally just collected the money, and didn't say anything else. Gu Beizhi didn't care, but said another thing, "By the way, a piece of linen was also distributed, the material is a bit thick, The color isn’t pretty either, so you can do something with it.”

"Well, I'll take a look later."

"Okay, I'm going to rest for a while, and I have to go to town in the afternoon, do you have anything to buy?"

"There is not much salt at home."

"understood."
