After time travel, he devoted himself to helping his father with his career.

Chapter 591 It’s not that I don’t have money

"I'll wait for you to come back at home!"

On the morning of the next day, Mingjia and his bodyguards watched at the door as the Emperor and others set off to the academy.

Because Mingjia didn't want to be too greedy for the collection of books at White Deer Academy, she simply chose to stay at home and not go to the academy, because the standards set by her brother were really difficult to handle!

When Mingjun finished talking about the standards and Mingjia immediately expressed that he preferred to stay at home, Mingjia heard several suppressed laughter sounds coming from the house.

After sending the person away, Mingjia took the escort out on the street. She can visit Yangzhou City by herself!

Mingjia is not in a hurry to go shopping in bookstores, because she knows she will go shopping with her brother again. Now Mingjia only chooses some distinctive shops to visit.

Jiangnan has always been famous for its embroidery. Mingjia doesn't know how to embroider, but her appreciation ability was taught by Mrs. Yan herself.

Mingjia went straight to the largest embroidery shop. There were novel patterns, ranging from handkerchiefs to screen ornaments. Mingjia... asked about the price!

Jiangnan is prosperous and prices will be more expensive. Mingjia also knows this and is somewhat mentally prepared.

All right! Mingjia found that her mental preparation was really not in place!

Mingjia also lacked interest in the next few embroidery shops he visited.

I have seen the best one, but after that, I feel that it is almost boring. The most important thing is that the prices of other embroidery shops are not cheap.

Thirteen and fourteen were the first to follow Mingjia, but when it comes to shopping, Mingjia prefers to take Chengwen with him. In fact, Chengwen also likes food.

Chengwen and Lingquan accompanied Mingjia today. Seeing that Mingjia was in a low mood, Lingquan winked at Chengwen and asked Chengwen to make Mingjia happy.

"Master Mingjia, let's go to the next street to buy oil cakes! I can smell the fragrance!"

"Thousand-layer oil cake? Okay, let's go!"

Mingjia walked to the next street, and Chengwen quickly followed Mingjia's footsteps. Before leaving, he didn't forget to turn around and give Lingquan a proud look.

Lingquan didn't care about Chengwen's somewhat childish behavior and started to follow him.

"how much is it?"

"Sir, three pieces of thousand-layer oil cake, a total of forty-five coins!"

Mingjia lowered his head to look at the oil cake, then looked at the smiling face of the stall owner, and finally paid the money.

【Everyone is here! 】

Mingjia gave the cake to Chengwen and Lingquan, then turned around and walked back the way he came. Mingjia wanted to go home!

In the afternoon, everyone who went to the academy came back. After all, the Emperor was old, and his face already looked tired.

Shen Qing sent the Emperor back to the courtyard to rest, and after a few words with the person on duty, he got up and walked to his courtyard.

Mingjun and Huang Jiawen went back to the courtyard directly, but Mingjun was worried about Mingjia, so he called Lingquan over for questioning.

"Master Mingjia is not in a high mood today. He didn't even finish the small piece of oil cake he bought!"

"Isn't the oil cake delicious?"

Listening to the conversation between Mingjun and the guard, Huang Jiawen was confused!

Mingjun loves his sister so much that his first reaction was not to ask Mingjia why he was in a bad mood, but to care about the taste of the cake!

Lingquan was silent for a moment, as if recalling the taste of the oil cake, and then spoke again after a while!

"Hmm~! It's a bit sweet!"

"That's it. Mingjia doesn't like sweet food. Most of the oil cakes are not cheap, so she doesn't want to throw them away!"

Huang Jiawen went through this logic in his mind. He used to think that Mingjun was frugal, but he didn't expect that Mingjia also had such a personality.

"Mingjia arrived in a new city and spent the whole morning shopping. Did he only buy a piece of fried cake?"

When Ming Jun saw Lingquan nodding, he waved his hand to let Lingquan go down!

Seeing Mingjun letting the guards leave directly, Huang Jiawen became a little anxious.

"Mingjun, why don't you continue to ask why Mingjia is in a bad mood?"

Mingjun ignored Huang Jiawen, just glanced at Huang Jiawen lightly, and went straight back to his yard.

After a while, Mingjun came out of the yard with a few books in his arms. When he saw that Huang Jiawen was still there, he spoke.

"I went to see Mingjia. Dinner was probably delivered to their respective courtyards, so I ate at Mingjia's place!"

Huang Jiawen looked at Ming Jun's retreating back and showed envy again. It's great to have a younger sister!

……

Mingjia was in the room thinking about how to make money while subconsciously playing with the chess pieces.

Suddenly, Mingjia's ears twitched, and the chess piece fell back into his palm with a nimble finger movement. Mingjia immediately raised a smile and looked in the direction of the door.

Sure enough, Mingjun's knock sounded outside the door.

"Mingjia, I'll bring you something good!"

"Brother, come in quickly!"

Mingjun opened the door and walked in. His eyes just lightly glanced at Mingjia's face, and then he walked over quickly.

"In the name of exchanging books, I exchanged a few books with the library of Bailu Academy. I remember that we don't have these books in the Shiqu Building!"

Mingjun knew how to arouse Mingjia's interest. As soon as Mingjun finished speaking, Mingjia had already reached out to pick up the book.

"Brother, you are so good!"

Shiqulou in Qu County has been designated as the No. 1 store by Mingjia. It has a directory of all Shiqulou books, which Mingjun often reads!

It can be said that only Ming Jun knows how many books there are in Shiqu Building and which books are not available in Shiqu Building!

"I may be very busy these days and I may not have time to copy the book. Mingjia may have time to copy it for me!"

"I have extra time! Brother~! I'll take care of this!"

Mingjia took a few books with both hands and placed them solemnly in front of him, then patted his chest and promised!

Soon, Ming Jia asked Ming Jun slyly if he could do the same thing in other academies in the future.

"Of course you can! Next time you can go together and visit the libraries of major academies!"

"it is good!"

Mingjun didn't ask his sister what she had done today, and Mingjia didn't mention anything about today. The brother and sister each picked up a book and started reading in tacit agreement.

The brothers and sisters felt that the time before dinner was just enough to read a book roughly, and then read it intensively after dinner.

Mingjun stayed in Mingjia's yard to have dinner together, and read with Mingjia for a long time before getting up and leaving.

Mingjia sent her brother out of the yard and when he walked to the gate of the yard, Mingjun stopped.

"Jiajia, you don't have enough money to spare?"

"No! I'm not short of money!"

"to be frank!"

Mingjia's whole little face was wrinkled like a bun. What was she going to say?

You know, Mingjia's lack of money and the lack of money of an ordinary official lady are not the same concept!

"Brother, I have enough money to buy food, embroidery and gifts for my family!"

Mingjia paused for a moment, and then... looked at his brother with evil intentions and smiled!

"But... if you want to buy a shop in Yangzhou and open a Zhiqu Building, it will be a bit difficult!"

Mingjun heard Mingjia's words very keenly, a "building" shop!

Thinking that the Shiqu Building currently open is a three-story single-family shop, while the one in Dianzhou is a four-story shop, Mingjun was silent for a moment!

It took a long time before Mingjun spoke!

"Wait a minute! It's not that we can't afford it, it's just that we don't have anyone available right now!"

"it is good!"
