"Pei Gong, I am relatively young and have little experience, but I also know that I am looking for a job in my position. Our economic and economic bureau is responsible for the East Palace Atlas, so I plan to find some aristocratic families of Chang'an Xunqi to make some connections.

Let’s see if you can donate some books to the East Palace. Our economic affairs bureau will organize and copy these books and store them in Chongwen Hall, so that it can be convenient for His Highness the Crown Prince to read.”

"Good idea." Pei Ju smiled.

"I am confident that I should be able to get some books. But when I get the books, I need to sort them out and copy them. I need a scribe, a decorator, and more importantly, paper, ink, pen, and inkstone. It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice, so I can only come to Mr. Pei.

"You are the young master of our East Palace." Huaiyu was also rude.

Pei Ju brought him a cup of fried tea and asked, "How much do you want?"

"The money from the government agencies in the Economic Affairs Bureau has not been withdrawn. As a rule, it costs at least 450,000 yuan. In fact, the government agencies in Chang'an all have a lot of money. Mr. Pei, please give us one million.

Paper, ink, pens, and inkstones are also very expensive. I also plan to open a public kitchen and canteen, and recruit craftsmen such as decorating and making pens with cooked paper. In this way, I can save some expenses on paper, pen, ink, binding, etc. Mr. Pei will allocate another one million.

Give us······"

Pei Ju raised a finger.

"I can only give you 100,000 yuan first, plus ten shi of corn, and I can temporarily give you some paper, ink, pens and inkstones. There is no more extra civilian money."

He wanted two million, but only offered one hundred thousand. Pei Ju was very aggressive in bargaining.

But Wu Huaiyu stood up and accepted it happily, "Thank you Mr. Pei, where can I get the money and food? Our Economic Bureau is still waiting for the rice to be cooked for lunch!"

Pei Ju wrote a note and called a secretary, Ling Shi, and asked him to take Wu Huaiyu to get money and food.

He also personally sent Wu Huaiyu to the gate of the Ministry of Civil Affairs Yamen, "What you said about collecting and sorting out books and storing them in the East Palace is quite good. Do it well."

"How about you, Mr. Pei, take the lead in donating a few sets of books? No matter what kind of books, we all need them now," Huaiyu said with a smile.

"I have a set of Filial Piety Classics in my apartment, but Ouyang Xun copied it himself, so I donated it to you."

"Pei Gong, you are dedicating the book to the East Palace, not to me." Huaiyu corrected with a smile, and then thanked Pei Shangshu on behalf of the Economic Affairs Bureau.
