The past life is cold and the present life is warm

Chapter 51 Buying Books
After a stick of incense, I saw that there was another buddy besides the one just now.Everyone held a stack of books in their hands and walked up to Tourmaline.The buddy just returned the book list to Tourmaline, and said happily: "Girl, you have almost found the books you want. There are a few books that are not available. Please forgive me. I have marked all the books for you. No The mark is really not in the store.”

Looking at the two stacks of books, Tourmaline was a little dizzy.The shopkeeper, who seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, also opened his eyes.

The shopkeeper was really shocked when he saw his two buddies holding so many books. He looked at Tourmaline's expression, and then at Tourmaline's attire.He dared to get up hurriedly and walked over with a smile, "Miss, is the book that the buddy took wrong?"

Before Bixi could reply, she turned her head and scolded the waiter, "What nonsense, are you trying to buy and sell by force because the little girl doesn't understand?"

The clerk hurriedly explained with a look of astonishment: "Shopkeeper, that's right. I picked the books based on the books given by the girl, so it must be right."

The shopkeeper winked at the clerk with the tourmaline on his back and said, "Is it true that the girl only wants a few of them, and you just didn't hear clearly?"

He saw how many of the books his buddy was holding were books. Although they were not unusual books, they were the most classic tomes, and each book cost more than ten taels of silver.My buddy holds several copies in his arms.He was worried that the girl came to his shop to cheat on her by dressing up as a servant girl.

The buddy was a little at a loss when he saw his shopkeeper baring his teeth.The tourmaline at the back regained his composure, smiled and said to the clerk: "I'm sorry for the inconvenience, I'll take the order and if it's right, I'll have it all. If there's nothing there, I'll look for it in other shops. "

The buddy was a little embarrassed and didn't know whether to move the book to Tourmaline.

Just when the shopkeeper was struggling, the shopkeeper turned to Bixi with a smile and said, "Girl, did you make a mistake? Can your master ask for so many books at one time? When will you be able to read them all? And there are so many books. The value of the book is no less than a hundred taels of silver. Maybe there will be three or four hundred taels."

Tourmaline got a little annoyed when she heard it, and after a long time, it turned out that the shopkeeper was afraid that she would not be able to pay the money.

So she thought of taking money out of her purse.I didn't want to feel empty, and the purse in the sleeve pocket disappeared.Tourmaline instantly felt a chill down her back, why did the 500 taels of silver suddenly disappear.She fumbled all the places on her body where she could put her purse, and there was not even a silver crumb.Tourmaline was so anxious that she almost cried.She hurriedly turned her head to look at Shen Ping, but found that Shen Ping was not in the store at this time.

Seeing that the tourmaline couldn't get any money out, the shopkeeper smiled and said, "Girl, let's read those books that you can afford. These medical books and classics are not suitable for your little girls to read."

Seeing that Shen Ping was not there, Tourmaline stamped her feet and said in a crying voice, "You guys, you claim to be the largest bookstore in the capital, but you didn't expect it to be a black shop. Ken, the people in your bookstore must have stolen my money just now. "

The shopkeeper immediately became unhappy when he heard what Bixi said. He put his hands back, frowned and said in a low voice, "Girls can eat but not talk nonsense. We are open to doing business openly, why bother to mess around for two people? These petty thefts. If a girl can't pay for these expensive books, you can also read the ones you can buy. There is no need to play here."

The change of face of the shopkeeper made Tourmaline a fool.But Tourmaline immediately came to her senses and stomped her foot and shouted: "You don't feel pain in your back when you stand and talk. It's fine if a dog sees people as inferior, but the more than 500 taels of silver were lost in your store. This guy also saw it. Just now I took it out of my purse. The book list I took. The purse will disappear after a while. Either someone from your store stole it or someone else stole it."

After finishing speaking, Tourmaline glanced at the guy who was holding the book and didn't know what to do.The shopkeeper followed Tourmaline's eyes and glanced at the young boy, and said displeasedly: "Little girl, what are you talking about? What do you mean by a dog's eyes looking down on people? There are so many books like yours. There are so many books like yours. I bought books to study. Besides, we don’t know if there is any money in your purse. Besides, if you don’t like your purse, it’s our fault instead, so why not.”

Maybe it was because the shopkeeper and Tourmaline were arguing too loudly. Outside the bookstore, people in twos and threes began to stop and watch curiously.

At this time, there was a strange creaking sound in the hall.The sound aroused Tourmaline's curiosity, she turned her head to look, and saw a man wearing a white square mesh crane cloak, a white and light orange belt with a thunder pattern around his waist, a jade crown and hair, and his eyes were moist and tender. The deep, dusty man was pushed out with a wooden wheelchair.

The man slightly nodded to the tourmaline who was looking over.Tourmaline hurriedly blessed her body, and when she saw this attire, she felt like someone from a noble family.It's just a pity that he is a person with limited legs and feet, wasting this good skin.If Su Wanqiu was here, she would know that it was Shao Zhiyan who she met yesterday.

"Shopkeeper Wang, it doesn't matter what the girl's owner buys the book for. We do business equally. Although I know you are worried that the girl won't be able to pay the money. But you always have to give the girl the right to choose. You are too presumptuous. In the future It must not be so arbitrary."

"And I see that the girl is so anxious, the silver may be really lost. I have sent Wubing to search for it. If it was stolen in the store, it should be found soon." Shao Zhiyan said while Soothe the tourmaline.

Seeing Shao Zhiyan, the shopkeeper hurriedly bowed respectfully and said, "Young Master, the lesson is that the subordinate is unreasonable. You must pay attention to it in the future. Why don't I send a few guys to look for it together."

"Okay, you don't need to look for it, I've caught up with you, young master." While talking, someone suddenly heard someone talking at the door.Then I saw a man in black walking in with a few books in his hands, followed by Shen Ping.Shen Ping grabbed a little boy with one hand, and brought in a big green lotus purse with the other.

Seeing the tourmaline, Shen Ping raised his purse and threw it to her, saying: "Can you check to see if there is any silver?"

Tourmaline took her purse, opened it immediately, and found that the bank notes and broken silver were still lying in it.I breathed a sigh of relief instantly, tears streaming down my face.Fortunately, the silver was found. If it was really lost, she would not be able to compensate her lady for so much silver if she was sold.

With tears in her eyes, Tourmaline slapped the banknotes on the counter and said, "You guys do the math, how much are these two stacks of books worth." At this moment, she felt both wronged and confident.

The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly went to the counter to calculate the price with his buddy.Then arrange other guys to disperse the onlookers.However, there were still one or two good people who went around and ran back.The guy saw that there was nothing he could do, so he let them go.
