In Xiyang City, Liu Xuan's house, Liu Xuan, who returned from the banquet, sat in the study room. There was a wooden box on the table in front of him, with several circulation coupons in the box, with a face value of 2,100 pieces of cloth and several copper coins.

According to the current price of Huangzhou, if the circulation coupon is converted into copper coins, it will be about 1,120 coins.

This is the "comprehensive" he obtained from the book "A Preliminary Exploration on the Authentic Book of Documents". According to the commission of 100 documents for each published book, the school has published more than 11,000 copies in the past month, so he has "comprehensive" more than 1,100 coins.

The division of the achievements is more than 1,000 stakes, which is OK?

After drinking another cup of tea, Liu Xuan wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, picked up the pen and started to convert.

The doctor of the Imperial Academy in Zhou State was a lower-level doctor (the four lives of the rank and the four lives), an assistant teacher at the Imperial Academy, and a superior scholar (the three lives of the rank and the three lives).

Among them, the lower-level officials have a salary of 1,000 shi per year; the superiors have a salary of 500 shi per year, and how much food can he buy with the 1,100 shi of 1,000 shi of money?

Nowadays, the price of ordinary rice with one stone fluctuates between 300 and 330 cents. Based on the usual money, you can buy three stone rice. Liu Xuan can buy three thousand three hundred stone rice for this money.

It is close to the salary level of the official level of the Shangdafu (Zheng Liuming, Liuming) (4,000 shi per year), which is the salary level of the governor of Zhengliu Mingzhou. This is much more than being a Ph.D. in the Imperial Academy, and Liu Xuan was not even an assistant to the Imperial Academy before.

The state with only 5,000 households is Zhengliu Mingzhou. This is already a small state, but no matter how small the state is, the governor is the governor. This is a position that Liu Xuan dared not dream of in his dreams. As a result, he debated and got a salary of nearly one year close to the governor of Zhengliu Mingzhou.

How many years of scoops will take to save enough 3,300 stones of rice? It's really unbelievable!

Liu Xuan's family was not well off, so he had to worry about food from time to time. Now, he no longer had to worry about food. Even if it was a good rice of 500 cigarettes per stone, he could buy at least 2,000 s of grain for only 1,100 stale.

The family settled in Xiyang. Even if the servants were 20, each person consumed two stones of grain per month, and the whole family consumed about 40 stones per month. If two thousand stones were stored, it would be enough to eat for five years.

Of course, daily living expenses also require money, and servants must also have monthly wages, and may have to increase their servants in the future. But even if the food converted into money and silk is deducted from these two thousand stones, the Liu family will not have to worry about at least this and next two years.

Thinking about the days when he was in his hometown not long ago, Liu Xuan was a little dazed.

He had outstanding knowledge but his career was not smooth. Later, he did not have a serious official position, so he was not considered an official. He had to pay rent and transfer every year, so he didn't have much income and could only rely on students to teach knowledge to subsidize his family income.

I worked hard in my hometown for a year but I couldn’t match the income from that half-day debate?

Liu Xuan was a little confused and a little surprised. Although King Yuwen of Xiyang did not seem to have planned to recommend him to be an official, the treatment he gave him now is a world of difference compared to before. Not to mention anything else, he can make money openly through knowledge.

The student's comments are not comparable to the "share" given by the bookstore. The amount of the book published this time is more than this round. "A preliminary study on the authenticity of ancient Chinese Books" will continue to be published, so his commission will continue to be released.

This is just a book. There are many ways to cooperate between the study club and other Huangzhou bookstores and scholars. The proofreading of books is rewarded. If you make annotations for various classics, you can sign a "share-share" contract with the bookstore.

You can even hand over your works to the other party for publication and sale, either as a "share of shares" or as a "buyout".

‘Buyout’ is a unique cooperation method for Huangzhou Bookstores. It means that both parties evaluate the value of a book. The bookstore pays the cost to the author in one lump sum. After the book is published, it has nothing to do with the author. It is suitable for authors who have no idea about the sales of their own books.

Liu Xuan was very confident in himself, so he planned to do a big fight in Huangzhou, compile all his life's learning and experience into books, and publish it with the strong strength of Huangzhou Bookstores, so that more scholars in the world can see his works.

Thinking of this, he packed the circulation coupons, then took out the letter paper and started writing.

It is better to have fun alone than to have fun. Liu Zhuo, who came to Huangzhou first, thought of him, and naturally he would think of others.

......

In the General Office, Yu Wenwen, who was almost "worked" in the case, talked with Sima Yang Ji, the General Officer who came to report on military affairs. While the assistant officer was not around, the two of them were busy talking about private matters.

"I'm not talking nonsense. You can save some of your share of more than 2,000 pieces of cloth. If you don't have some money, what should I do if you urgently use money in the future?"

"With the king here, there will naturally be a place to borrow money."

"I'm confident and fearless. No wonder I'm treating guests everywhere these days. I'm so generous, Mr. Yang!"

"The king was joking, the word "Young Master" is not affordable."

The word "Young Master" has existed since ancient times, but its usage is different from that in the Ming Dynasty. When Yuwen Wen was the title of County Duke, his identity and age were worthy of the title of "Young Master Yuwen". However, when it comes to Yang Ji's words, it must be "then" to be called "Young Master Yang".

The official came in with a pile of official documents. The two stopped talking. After they put the official documents and left, the conversation continued.

Seeing this mountain of official documents, Yang Ji advised: "Why do you have to do it yourself? Although the king is young and strong, he must always be accustomed to using people."

"The word "training" is easier said than done. If you are not proficient in grassroots affairs, you will be easily deceived by clerks in the future. Besides, the prime minister must be from prefectures and counties, and the powerful generals must be from the army. How do you say that? If you don't live in prefectures and counties, you won't be from the Tai Pavilion."

"But the training of staff is not a matter of a day or a night. The king always does it himself. If he needs to be independent when adapting to the situation, how can he hold on for a while?"

"Cultivate? Why don't you want to train? It's just that the officials in the General Administration are not followed by me. If I transfer them to another place in the future, I can't transfer all the people to the group, right?" Yuwen Wen hadn't thought about this issue, but he still had to consider the actual situation.

Strictly speaking, whether it is the chief or the governor, the chief and Sima were appointed by the court, in order to monitor and decentralize power. Now the situation is just a special situation, so Yuwen Wen can designate Yang Ji as his chief Sima.

But this situation cannot continue. He is still young and will sooner or later be transferred to another place to be an official in his career, or be transferred back to the capital to be an official. At that time, it is impossible to take away the officials he used to.

As the saying goes, if you have more skills, you will not suppress yourself. Only you can be reliable. For Yuwen Wen today, there is also the option of being a staff member of the royal family.

Unless the aides of the royal family were dismissed or resigned, they would have to follow the vassal king (the head of the palace). Therefore, the miserable Liu Wenjing became another contract worker of Yuwen Wen after Yang Ji, and often worked overtime and kept busy.

The same is true for the doctor, Di Jun. This is the "right" trained by Yuwen Wen. However, as the assistants of the royal family, they were unable to interfere in the affairs of the general government office, so Yuwen Wen became an office madman in the general government office.

He is young, energetic, and has a flexible mind. He also has the help of Yang Ji, Yuwen Shiwu, Xu Shao, Hao Wu Bo, and Zheng Tong. Yuwen Wen firmly grasped the military and political power of the Huangzhou General Administration Office, actively farming and training troops to prepare for war, and was waiting for the next round of copy to begin.

"As for the State of Chen, it will be over sooner or later. Although I don't know when the court will take action, I will not be idle, and you should not be idle either."

Yuwen Wen took out a notepad and handed it to Yang Ji, signaling him to listen to him while watching.

"A preliminary study on the authenticity of ancient texts and books" is a good seller, which is considered accidental, but I saw business opportunities from it. After a while of planning, I summarized a few ideas. You can take the initiative to advise."

"Of course, the notepad is just a preliminary idea, and you can give me any opinions or opinions."
