Chapter 315 Copying Books

Old Man Ye and Mrs. Li watched people coming and going in the store. Although they couldn't go forward to help, they could calculate that the third brother made a lot of money every day.

After waiting for a while, Guizi finally made all the arrangements.

Guizi is also a capable man. He has made clear arrangements for so many people.

Ye Laosan came in from outside humming a tune and saw Old Man Ye and others sitting inside at a glance.

"Dad and Mom, how come you have time to come here? My brother and sister-in-law are here too. Come and see my shop. It's pretty good."

"Yes, people are coming and going, and business is good." Boss Ye praised sincerely.

Old Man Ye and Mrs. Li were relieved about their third son. The old family had a lot of land and the children were all capable.

The second son's family has a skill and makes a lot of money every year.

The third child doesn't have any skills, and the family has young children who need to go to school and cost money, so they are always thinking about him.

Now that they see the store is doing good business, they can finally put their worries at ease and sleep well at night.

"Why are you so happy, Third Brother?" Li heard him humming a tune when he came in.

"The steward on the ship just now gave us the job of unloading the cargo and replenishing the supplies on the ship."

"Guizi, go to Grandma Chen and buy a few cups of fermented rice wine so that everyone can drink some to quench their thirst." Ye Laosan turned around and instructed Guizi.

"Uncle San, I'll go right away."

Ye Laosan is a generous man and often buys drinks for the store.

Guizi came back soon, "Uncle San, Granny Chen will send it over right away."

"Okay, this is the job I just took. Please post a notice."

Guizi took the booklet, which listed the people needed for various jobs and the things that needed to be purchased.

Guizi went to work. They had a cooperative shop that specialized in restocking supplies for large ships.

Ye Lao San led them to the backyard, "Let's talk in the back, there are too many people in the front."

Several people followed him to the backyard. It was Ye Qing’s first time to be in this backyard.

When I bought the shop in front, she came to see it and gave me some suggestions, and designed it into its current appearance.

The yard at the back was recently rented. Friends who go home late at night can come here and rest for a night.

Ye Lao San also had a shop, but the location was not as suitable as this one. He rented out his shop and rented this one.

"Brother, have you eaten? If not, I'll go order some dishes and we can eat together."

"We've eaten, but you haven't. What time is it now? Don't do this again in the future."

Ye Lao San didn't dare to speak when he heard what Ye Lao Da said to him. Li also stared at him, with an expression that looked like she didn't like a disobedient child.

"I have eaten. I'm just worried that you haven't eaten." If Ye Laosan didn't explain any more, Li would come to bring him food at noon every day.

"Master, the milk wine is here, you guys can try it." Guizi brought over a few cups.

"Guizi, have you left it for yourself?" Li didn't bother to talk about her son and started to care about Guizi first.

"I left some milk in. It's a big cup." Guizi is also a lively person.

Ye Qing went to distribute the fermented rice wine to everyone. She was the youngest here and didn't dare let others take it for her.

Ye Laosan knew that the old couple were worried about him and always felt that he was a burden, and they even secretly gave him money several times.

Ye Laosan is earning a lot of money now, and his two children are studying without any pressure at all.

"Qingya, what's wrong with your brain? I don't have this brain. The idea you gave me earns more than I can earn as a peddler."

Ye Qing didn't take the credit. "Uncle San knows how to do business. I just moved my lips. You were the one who took care of the work and organized the staff."

"What a coincidence! If it weren't for this dock, I wouldn't be able to do this. It's all thanks to you and Dalang that you offered us new seeds and got this opportunity."

"You are praising each other. You and your nephew are the smartest in the world." Zhou couldn't stand it anymore.

~Hahahahaha~

Everyone burst into laughter. Old Man Ye and Mrs. Li sat for a while and were about to go home. They were disturbing the third brother's business here.

Ye Qing took them back to Mong Kok Building and packed some meat dishes to take back for dinner.

They ate outside at noon, so the brothers Wei Xin and Ping An did not get to eat.

When they all waited, Ping'an had already returned from school.

"Ping An, look what we brought back, your favorite chicken wings."

Ping An came over happily, but didn't take the food from Ye Qing's hand.

Food, go and help Old Man Ye down first.

Ye Qing looked at this scene and suddenly had an epiphany. This was probably the reason why everyone wanted to get married.

Wei Xin came out from the kitchen, "You guys are back, the meal will be ready soon, I'm cooking two dishes."

"Fry some more vegetables, we'll pack up the meat." Zhou went to the kitchen to help.

Ping'an helped bring the meat dishes into the kitchen, which included his favorite chicken wings and his mother's favorite lion's head.

"Sister-in-law, wait until my shop is cleaned up, then you can go and take a look." Ye Qing came over to get the steamed buns.

"Okay, once the farm is stable, I'll go take a look." Wei Xin was worried about the farm this time, so he didn't go with them.

After all the dishes were served on the table, Ye Qing told Wei Xin about the situation in the restaurant.

After Ye Qing finished speaking, Ping An told them some interesting stories from the school.

"Aunt, today the teacher told us to read more books. The more books we read, the more knowledge we gain."

"Your teacher is right. Your uncle left you this book. You should read it more when you have time."

Ping An said innocently, "But there aren't many books at home. I can finish reading them quickly."

Ye Qing wanted to laugh, but he was afraid of hurting his confidence, so he had to hold it back.

"Don't worry about reading. When you finish reading all of them, your aunt will buy you a new one."

When Boss Ye heard that his grandson loved reading, he quickly said, "Grandpa will buy you some too. As long as you want to read, your books will always be indispensable at home."

"But books are very expensive, and it costs a lot of money for my family. The teacher said that there are not enough books in Wu'an City, and we should read good books from all over the world."

Boss Ye didn't dare to agree. He could still buy books in Wu'an City and Fucheng City, but he couldn't buy them in places farther away.

Ye Qing thought about the private school in the village. There was no library inside. Books were expensive now, and few people were willing to buy books that were not related to the imperial examination.

Ye Qing only had ten travel books in his hand, which was already too many.

"Ping'an, who in your private school has the best handwriting?" Ye Qing wanted to find two people who wrote well.

"The students in the scientific research class all wrote very well. The teacher said we should learn from them."

"Help my aunt find two people tomorrow. I want them to help copy the book. Copy two copies of my travel notes and donate one copy to the private school."

Ping An was still young and was a little worried about who to turn to. He then thought that the copied books were to be donated to a private school, so he asked the teacher to help him find someone.

After Ping An figured it out, he happily agreed to Ye Qing's request.

Ye Qing now has an idea. If this can be done, Ping An's wish to read all the books in the world may come true.

The next morning, Ping An told this matter to Master Yang, who is now the principal of the private school and is responsible for all the affairs of the private school.

"Your aunt is great. I'll find a few people to help copy the books. When they're done, the whole private school will be grateful to your aunt."
