Qi Xiuyuan felt that his younger brother and sister-in-law were born to find problems for him. He was still struggling with the education of the children, and Qi Haoran found something for him to do again.

He really thought that the Royal Library is easy to handle. There are so many scholars in the world, and they are scattered all over the world. This library is built in the capital, and it is said to benefit the people of the world, but in fact, it is just to benefit the people in the capital and its vicinity. Reading this book and flocking to Beijing, the light travel costs will be how much, for the poor people, this is simply impossible.

So he refused directly and told him that unless you can build library buildings in every state capital, this matter can only be a waste of money and labor. If you want to collect books, the library library in the palace is open to you. Which seal do you want to print? Which one.

Qi Haoran was still not good, Fan Zijin got excited first, listed a series of books, and handed the business to Mu Yangling's bookstore, "Let your manager at the Beijing Bookstore handle it, and I'll give you the money later."

Mu Yangling glanced at the bibliography and found that the sub-collections included hundreds of schools, and even a lot of topographical journals, she immediately said: "You just give me the cost, I will let them print ten volumes each, We each want one volume, and the rest will be stored in the bookstore first, although the emperor said it would be expensive, but I don’t mind borrowing the money from him first.”

This is to catch the ducks on the shelves.

Fan Zijin twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "You can do whatever you want, but if you can't take it back in the end, don't blame me for not reminding you, this royal library is really not easy to do."

Mu Yangling is very open, "The big deal is that I will put it in the bookstore and sell it, do you still worry about selling the book?"

Now is not the past life. Books are one of the things that I don’t worry about selling. But now that Daqi’s national strength is getting stronger, the country needs talents, and the reading atmosphere is growing, books will only get better and better, and what they publish is the Imperial Palace Library There are some books in the bookstore, but you can't find them in the bookstore outside.

That's why Mu Yangling asked people to print more, not afraid of losing money at all, but more funds would be occupied. After all, paper and ink are not cheap in this era, but Mu Yangling is not worried about money at all, because her glass workshop The first batch of mirrors has been officially launched, and the watch workshop has also launched wall clocks and pocket watches. In a word, Mu Yangling is not bad for money now.

With a wave of his hand, Mu Yangling, who was not short of money, asked the steward of the Beijing Central Bookstore to go to the palace to find someone to ask for the book, and quickly printed it, and asked Zhu Liang to go back to Beijing in person to clean up several courtyards of the palace and use it as a library. Store books well.

In addition, Mu Yangling also asked Zhu Liang to be responsible for the sales of glass and clocks. In addition to wholesale to merchants from all over the world, they also opened two shops to sell the products produced by these two workshops.

The glass workshop and watch workshop are located in Guangdong, which is a little far from the prosperous south of the Yangtze River. The people there still don’t know that they can produce this thing, so Zhu Liang is also shouldering the important task of promoting mirrors and watches when he returns to Beijing this time.

There were also five carriages that accompanied Zhu Liang to Beijing, two of which were gifts for filial piety in the palace and relatives in Beijing, and the remaining three were samples for Zhu Liang to talk about business.

Most of the two cars were for Li Jinghua and the children. Most of them were Western objects that Little Bear brought his three younger brothers to buy. There was also a set of Western pink tutu skirts for Princess Pearl.

Zhu Liang returned to the capital and gave the palace a sign before returning to the palace to wash up. It was almost he changed his clothes, and the people in the palace came to pass him in to answer.

Zhu Liang didn't dare to be negligent, and he went to the palace to answer while letting people pack his things and send them to the palace for security check.

Zhu Liang was taken all the way to the side hall of Kunning Palace. He knew that he was going to see the queen, but as soon as he entered, he heard the child's laughter, Zhu Liang didn't dare to lift his head, and took two steps inside. He knelt down and kowtowed.

The female official said: "No ceremony."

Only then did Zhu Liang stand up and put his head down in the book. He looked up quietly and saw that the queen was sitting on it with the princess in her arms, and three boys were sitting on the soft couch beside it, they should be the second prince and the third prince. With the fourth prince, Zhu Liang lowered his eyes and bowed to listen.

The queen smiled and asked, "I haven't seen your princess for a long time, is she okay?"

"Thanks to Niangniang Hongfu, the princess is in good health."

"What did she bring us this time, and send you back to Beijing in return." Li Jinghua was very curious about this, but she asked A-Ling, A-Ling always said that she understood when she saw something, and Xiaobao obviously also Knowing something, but hiding it from her, the second prince is half-knowledgeable and only calls her baby.

So she was very curious about what kind of treasure asked Mu Yangling to send her big housekeeper back, knowing that most of the affairs of the palace were handled by Zhu Liang with the help of Mu Yangling.

Just as Zhu Liang was about to answer, there was a chanting sound from outside, Zhu Liang hurriedly stepped aside, Li Jinghua greeted the door with four children, and the emperor came in with Xiao Bao's hand, "It's not that A Ling brought us a baby. What? What?"

The items were quickly sent to Kunning Palace after security inspection. The children were very happy to see so many strange Western things, and they sat on the carpet and picked their favorites.

On the other hand, Li Jinghua held a mirror and looked at herself inside in surprise, touched her cheek, and took a long breath before exhaling.

Qi Xiuyuan played with an exquisite pocket watch and asked calmly, "This is all from the workshop of the palace?"

"Yes, it was only developed this spring. The goods that have been stocked for four months are selling well in the Guangdong area. My mother asked me to go back to Beijing to find merchants to see if the merchants in Jiangnan are willing to cooperate."

"It's really a treasure," Qi Xiuyuan smiled, "No wonder the couple dared to propose the construction of a royal library."

He put the pocket watch in the box, closed it again, looked at Zhu Liang, and asked, "What else do you have to do when you return to Beijing this time besides talking about business?"

"The palace and the palace of the state discussed to print a batch of books for collection, and the princess said to print a few more volumes and store them first. If you want to open the royal library, just move them directly, and you don't need to reprint them, so as not to waste manpower. Increase the cost, if it doesn’t open, then send it to various bookstores for sale, the books in the palace are all good, don’t worry about not being able to sell.”

"Your palace is rich, but you don't have to worry about those books taking up the funds," Qi Xiuyuan knocked on the table and said, "Since your princess has ordered you, then print a few more volumes."

After Zhu Liang left, Li Jinghua hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, do you really plan to open a royal library? I'm afraid that the adults in the court are not willing to take money from the national treasury. Although you still have money in your inner treasury, you will not be able to pass it through. It's so good for you."

Qi Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Even if I stop Haoran and A Ling from doing what they want to do, they will continue to toss in the future. Why don't I do it here? I don't have the money, but there are a lot of houses and people. I didn’t expect it to become a big one as soon as it came up, and that’s the case, it’s okay to make the library smaller, the big deal is to build it later when you have money.”

"I remember that there is a house left by the left servant of the former Ministry of Personnel at Lin Guozijian, so let's put the books in it first. Isn't the group of students in the Guozijian clamoring for me to cut down the troops recently? Just looking for something for them. Do, let them take care of these book collections and borrowing, so as not to have nothing to do and always make trouble for me."
