After sending the housekeeper Li Chang away, Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and other scholars were like a group of barbarian hozens who had just arrived in the prosperous Chang'an. They stared at the entire dormitory building with their eyes full of novelty.
I started checking house to house.
In fact, even Gongfang is used by a group of scholars, and a group of people are watching from the sidelines!
Moreover, while watching, some scholars were actually laughing.
"My dear friends, don't look at anything that's inappropriate, don't look at anything that's inappropriate..."
"How can you guys stare at such an indecent thing?"
"Exactly, being stared at by you dear friends, I instantly lost the feeling of daring..."
Some scholars with thin skin immediately turned red in the face.
"Tsk..."
Hearing this, the scholars who had finished their addiction laughed loudly, turned around and walked to the next room.
They are even more curious about those magical devices that can continuously flow out cold and hot water.
Some scholars even put their hands directly under the red faucet and screamed when they were burned to the point of being burned.
There were also some scholars who stood directly under the shower head in the bathroom and turned on the faucet of scalding water. Suddenly their hair became tight and they jumped out of the bathroom, like fire and thunder striking the altar.
After seeing what happened to these unlucky scholars, the surrounding scholars who were watching the excitement were directly shocked.
Immediately, he began to study it in detail.
It was not until the servants and maids sent by the housekeeper Li Chang delivered a set of beddings, washbasins and other items that all the scholars, who were soaked with water and in a state of embarrassment, came to their senses.
They haven't chosen a room yet.
So, there was another panic.
Fortunately, there are six rooms on each floor, and each floor can accommodate eighteen people.
For them, all it takes is selecting a floor.
After choosing the room, Qiu Shuye remembered the words of the housekeeper Li Chang, and quickly raised his hands to the servant of the palace and the maid in the room.
"Uncle Qiu, I'm in Lanzhou. Thank you two for sending us the bedding and washbasin!"
Cen Xugang and another roommate in the same room also quickly followed suit.
"Cen Xugang of Xia Liangzhou would like to thank you two..."
"In Xiahezhou..."
"We and I are just following orders, the three gentlemen don't need to be so polite!"
To Qiu Shuye, Cen Xugang and others, the servants and maids in the other courtyard did not show condescension, but were very polite.
This made the three scholars, Qiu Shuye and Cen Xugang, breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts.
"When we came here, the Chief Superintendent specially told us that if you gentlemen have any confusion, I will explain it to you in detail. I wonder where the three gentlemen are unclear?"
"If that's the case, then I'll bother you two!"
Qiu Shuye and Cen Xugang looked happy and quickly talked about the issues they were most concerned about.
"I'm not afraid of your jokes. We came from Lanzhou and Liangzhou and are not very familiar with the King's Lijiazhuang, so we want to learn about it from you two and how to borrow classics from the King's Villa; and
Or, how can you listen to the lectures of the four great scholars at the back, and how to use the iron lotus pods in the bathhouse..."
In just a short while, the three of them talked a lot.
Hearing this, the two servants of the palace chuckled and said slowly: "You guys don't know, but in the villa, it is actually very easy to go to the library to borrow classics and listen to the lectures of the four great Confucian scholars!"
"Easy?"
Qiu Shuye and Cen Xugang were startled, and then their faces became overjoyed.
"Please give me your advice!"
"As long as you two have money, you can go to the king's library to borrow classics, or even buy classics directly. Moreover, you can also use your money to listen to the lectures of the four great Confucian scholars, or you can also listen to the lectures of the four great Confucian disciples.
!”
The servants and maids from other courtyards smiled lightly and said slowly.
"use money?"
Suddenly, Qiu Shuye and Cen Xugang couldn't help but widen their eyes again, their faces full of surprise.
"You can actually pay to listen to the great Confucian lectures?"
"Of course you can!"
The servants and maids in the other courtyard nodded slightly, remembering something, and a smile from the heart flashed across their faces.
"In Lijiazhuang, everything can be solved with money. However, what is different from the outside is that in the village, money can be used to listen to lectures by great Confucians, borrow or buy classics, or buy meat and vegetables, grain, and build houses.
, the money required is at least 30%, or even 50% cheaper than the outside world!"
Qiu Shuye and Cen Xugang looked happy.
However, when I thought of their family circumstances, a look of sadness flashed in my eyes.
"But, we are all from a poor family, our family is poor, and we don't have much money in our pockets!"
"All of you gentlemen are scholars, and you must have a lot of knowledge. Therefore, you can make money by doing tasks in the village or other courtyards."
The servant and the maidservant said slowly: "Your Majesty is very kind to my servants. As long as we complete our daily work, we can do what we want to do. Moreover, each person has more money every month."
During the four days of rest, we can also choose to work for others to make money.
"How can this be……"
Qiu Shuye and Cen Xugang were shocked again, with disbelief on their faces.
"This is true without a doubt!"
The servant and maid were not annoyed and continued to chuckle and said: "As servants and maids of the King's Courtyard, after completing our respective tasks every day, we can go to the King's Library to borrow books and listen to the great scholars.
Lectures!”
"What, you two can also listen to the great Confucian lectures?..."
Qiu Shuye and Cen Xugang were once again filled with disbelief.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong and quickly said with an embarrassed smile.
"Don't get me wrong, you two. We have never dared to think that we could spend money to listen to the lectures of great Confucians!"
"No problem!"
The servant and the maid chuckled lightly, showing no sign of anger at being looked down upon.
"You gentlemen may not know that listening to the lectures of four great Confucian scholars only costs one hundred pennies, and listening to the lectures of four great Confucian disciples only costs twenty pennies! There are more than three hundred servants and maids in the King's Courtyard.
You all, in the past few years, have listened to the lectures of the four great Confucians and their disciples!
However, we just want to learn literacy and arithmetic, and most of the time, we listen to the lectures given by ordinary teachers in the school!"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Shuye and Cen Xugang were stunned in place.
After a while, the three of them had expressions that seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time, "More than three hundred servants and maids in the King's Courtyard have actually listened to the lectures of the Great Confucian and his disciples..."
"Now, among our more than three hundred servants and maids, there are at least two hundred servants and maids who can read thousands of words, and can also add, subtract, multiply and divide thousands of digits!"
