Summon players, rebuild Dawei

Zhou Mo didn't know how much the things he sent would change the situation. After leaving the main hall, he was taken to the library by a government official.

The Miryang Library was officially opened to the public only five days ago.

Because it is a new library, many aspects have not yet reached a mature level, and the external publicity is not extensive enough. Nevertheless, I heard that the first floor of the library is open to the public for free, and there are still many residents in the city who come to visit, especially the Most players.

For players, the interior environment of the library building is quaint and quiet, and there are small gardens and shops for stationery and souvenirs outside.

Although Zhou Mo has been in Miryang for two days and has heard a lot of rumors about the library, this is the first time he has entered the library.

When he first entered the gate of the museum garden, he was really surprised to see the figures of civilians in plain clothes bustling around.

In his opinion, even if this library is open to anyone, such as ordinary people, who don't know a single word, shouldn't come here.

Soon thereafter, he understood why these people came.

There are two hexagonal pavilions next to the main building with the plaque of "Miryang Library". On the left side of the pavilion, there is a food shop on the side facing them. The food they sell seems to be snacks that can be eaten with hands. Loved by passing young people.

The pavilion on the right facing them is a beverage shop, and there is a long queue in front of the shop.

There are two shops on the left and right of the beverage store, which also sell food. Zhou Mo vaguely saw the words "desserts and pastries" and "gourd bento" printed on the flags floating outside the door, and the air was filled with a touch of food. aroma.

Having lived in Miryang for two days, Zhou Mo already knew how well-developed the catering in this city was, but he did not expect that there were so many restaurants in the library garden.

On the one hand, he felt that such a design was convenient, on the other hand, he felt that the fireworks were really insulting to a quiet place like the library, and he didn't know what expression to make.

The official who brought him here was named Huang Song. Seeing Zhou Mo looking at the pavilions on both sides from time to time, he asked intimately: "Mr. Lang, can you go buy some food? There is a shop that sells Kanto cooking. The taste is very good. The teachers and students from the Shiguan next door often come here."

Zhou Mo is not used to eating out, let alone in this crowded place.

He shook his head and said: "Don't waste your time, let's do business first."

Seeing his serious face, Huang Song didn't persuade him much, and then led him up the steps of the main library and into the main entrance of the library.

Compared with the unbearable heat outside, the interior of the building is much quieter and cooler.

The first floor of the library is spacious and quiet, divided into multiple areas by bookshelves.

Seeing the neat thread-bound books on the tall bookshelf, Zhou Mo couldn't help being surprised.

In his mind, paper books are still in the form of scrolls, and it is very rare that such books are bound together into volumes. He only bought a book from Miryang accidentally from a merchant last year. Books are quite expensive. I didn't expect that the library is full of thread-bound books bound like this.

He walked quickly to a bookshelf, took out a book and opened it, and found that it was the engraved "Book of Filial Piety". The printed font was clean and tidy, and it was comfortable and convenient to read through the pages.

Closing the books, the row next to Zhou Mocai was filled with identical copies of the "Book of Filial Piety". The price was marked at the bottom, which was [-] yuan each. This price was not expensive for rich people, but it was not cheap for ordinary people.

Huang Song introduced: "The bookstore has limited personnel, and usually only selects the books with the widest audience to make movable type books, prints hundreds of copies at a time, and puts them on shelves for sale. For those with a relatively narrow audience, they make hard copies and put them in the reading area for borrowing only. not for sale."

Zhou Mo nodded understandingly, and put the "Book of Filial Piety" back in his hand with a little reluctance.

Although the contents of the books on this shelf are relatively common, they are not as precious and rare as those in the Secretary's Ministry, but I have to admit that in the eyes of a book lover, this place is heaven for him.

Even if you just walk through the bookshelves full of books and do nothing, you will feel a constant sense of satisfaction in your heart.

Zhou Mo couldn't help wandering around the rows of bookshelves, and occasionally took out a book to read the contents.

He found that the library also divided the books into classics and history subsets, and the classification was very detailed. There was also a special bookshelf for newspapers and periodicals.

The only fly in the ointment is that the number of books in the library is still relatively small.

After walking for a long time, the bookshelf behind was empty, and there was a sign asking for book donations, which was regrettable.

Going further inside is the reading area.

The reading areas are all by the windows, and the afternoon sunlight shines through the latticed glass windows on the wooden tables, chairs and floors, giving people a sense of tranquility and comfort.

Zhou Mo saw many scholars gathered in the reading area, and most of them were writing something furiously, so he asked, "What are they writing?"

"The students in the white school uniforms are from the county school. They are basically here to find a quiet place to do their homework, and the rest are probably copying books." Huang Song replied with a smile, "Some books that are not for sale on the shelves, If customers want to own it, they can only copy it by hand.”

Zhou Mo suddenly said: "So that's the case."

Walking to the window and looking out at the scenery, the environment inside Zhou Moxin Daoist Hall is really good, with simple and elegant decoration and neat furnishings. Not only does it have such a clear and transparent glass window, but the tables and chairs are also comfortable and easy to install.

If his family lived nearby, he would probably be willing to come here to pass the time from time to time.

After coming out of the reading area, Huang Song took him to the second floor through the internal staff passage, and introduced on the way: "The main building of the library is divided into three areas by floor. The first floor is the general book area and the reading area. Area;

"The second floor is the studio of our Miryang Bookstore and the staff of various departments in the library. The books seen downstairs are all born here;

"The third floor is the special collection area, that is, the library area you are going to visit. There are rare books, documents, maps, engineering drawings, local chronicles, etc. in it, and you need to get government approval to enter..."

Zhou Mo's main purpose here is to visit the library environment, so although he is very interested in the production of thread-bound books, Huang Song did not take him to the work area on the second floor, but directly went up to the third floor.

Walking along the wooden stairs to the top of the building, you can see two locked wooden doors with a plaque hanging above them with the words "library".

There is also a small compartment next to the door, in which sits an old man guarding the door.

The old man was wearing a clip-on single-sided glasses, and was lowering his head, intently copying the words from a scroll of bamboo slips onto the paper.

Huang Song walked to the window sill of the cubicle, explained his purpose to the old man, and showed him the government's approval document.

Hearing this, the old man temporarily put down his work and took out a booklet for them to register their names.

After finishing the registration process, the old man took back the booklet, got up slowly, and came out with the key to open the door.

It wasn't until he walked out of the cubicle that Zhou Mo looked at him face to face, and was surprised to find that he knew the old man.

The other party's name was Li Zhong, who was born in a local noble family in Xing County. When Zhou Mo was still the secretary, the secretary supervisor at that time was Mr. Li.

At that time, due to the relationship between superiors and subordinates, Zhou Mo didn't communicate much with him in private, but the old man did teach him a lot about the management and classification of book collections, and the other party's conscientious work attitude left a deep impact on him.

It's a pity that when the capital was moved, Li Zhong was too old to move south with him.

Zhou Mo originally thought that this senior had already retired to enjoy his old age, but he didn't expect that at this age, he would accept the employment of the library and manage the collection of books silently here alone.

For some reason, Zhou Mo felt moved.

He saluted Li Zhong respectfully, showing his identity.

Hearing his voice, Li Zhong recognized his face.

It is rare to see the younger generation who used to work together, the old man showed a gratified smile, and said slowly: "It has been more than four years since we moved the capital, and I never thought that we would see you again in Miryang, what is the important thing for you to come here today? "

Zhou Mo nodded, and replied frankly: "There is a collection of books that a certain person escorted from Hengchuan and wants to donate to the library."

Hearing that the collection of books came from Hengchuan, the old man seemed to understand something, stroked his beard and said "Goodness", and immediately opened the door of the library with the key.

The interior on the third floor is extremely quiet. Although there are glass windows installed, the curtains are drawn, and the environment is relatively airtight. Because the interior area is deep and wide, and it is full of bookshelves, the light is extremely dim.

It is forbidden to light candles in the library room. For the convenience of visiting, Li Zhong opened some curtains in the shade, so that natural light can penetrate into the room a little.

Taking advantage of the dim light, Zhou Mo approached a shelf, and found that the books here were all placed in envelopes made of cardboard and brocade cloth. There are also spices for pest control, which are carefully preserved.

In fact, when he knew that Li Zhong was the manager of the library, Zhou Mo already had a solid understanding of the library's book collection environment.

With seniors who used to be secretaries and supervisors here, those ancient books will definitely receive the best care.

At this time, after a personal on-site inspection, he was completely at ease.

Compared with the unmanaged secret mansion in Xunyang Palace City, the library's collection room is naturally more reassuring.

After coming out of the library, Zhou Mo made a decision to donate all the books he brought from Hengchuan here.

At the same time, perhaps inspired by his seniors, he also had the idea of ​​working in the library.

This idea reached its peak when he learned from Huang Song that the studios of the two newspaper offices were located in another building in the museum garden.

Zhou Mo has always liked to read newspapers, and he appreciates the opinions expressed by a Mr. Linchuan in the newspaper. He knows that Mr. Linchuan is the editor-in-chief of the literary newspaper, so he wants to stay in the library to work more and more. A chance to meet this spiritual friend.

With this in mind, when he walked out of the library, Zhou Mo informed Huang Song of his wishes.

Before Huang Song came, he got a hint from his superiors that it would be best to keep this talent working in Miryang, so he naturally agreed now, expressing that he would report his thoughts to the envoy.

So half a month later, as the former secretary Cheng parachuted in and became the deputy director of the Miryang Library, the library received box after box of precious books, and the staff of the bookstore on the second floor suddenly became extremely busy.

But such an important event, except for the staff of the library, no one cares about it, because there is a bigger event that occupies the focus of people's attention.
