After the eldest daughter was reborn, she became a crazy output

"Pfft"

A suppressed laugh came from behind.

Meeting their gazes, Zhang Yulin immediately said in a serious tone, "Sorry, sorry, I couldn't help it."

Hahahaha, this nerd is reading a book in someone else's store and he doesn't even know who the store owner is. It's so funny.

This was the funniest joke he had heard this year.

Hahahaha~

Cheng Cheng didn't care, but looked at Yuan Zhizhou kindly and explained.

"I am the owner of this store, Baicheng. The books you are reading are collected by me."

Hearing this, Yuan Zhizhou's eyes burst into great surprise, "These books are yours?! You are the boss??"

Chengcheng nodded.

"You are such a nice person. You are willing to take out these books. Can I come over and read them every day in the future?"

Yuan Zhizhou was extremely surprised, his whole body showed his excitement, and his eyes were shining as he looked at Chengcheng.

I felt embarrassed when Chengcheng saw it.

This Yuan Zhizhou was quite interesting. Originally, there was no luster in his eyes and he looked dull.

After knowing that these books were his, he was completely transformed, like a completely different person. He was no longer lifeless, but full of energy, with his eyes sparkling.

"Sure, but the Spring Examination is coming soon. There will be many scholars coming to the store to read books. If you want to read books, you can go to the upstairs private room. However, the price of the upstairs private room will be a bit higher."

Cheng Cheng did not mention the specific price because he knew that Yuan Zhizhou would definitely come no matter how much it cost.

"can."

"Is the downstairs reserved for those who are taking the scientific expedition? Should I go directly upstairs tomorrow? Are there these books upstairs as well?"

Yuan Zhizhou agreed without thinking, and then asked a basket of questions.

"Yes."

Cheng Cheng chuckled. This guy is quite interesting.

"The downstairs is reserved for scholars taking the imperial examinations. When you come tomorrow, go find the shopkeeper and someone will take you upstairs."

"The small private room upstairs costs one tael of silver a day, and the large private room costs three taels of silver a day. After you reserve the room, you will be given a name plate. If you do not plan to come, give the name plate to the shopkeeper."

“Books from downstairs can be taken upstairs to read, but books from upstairs cannot be taken downstairs.”

"However, no books are placed on the shelves upstairs for the time being. The papers in the box cannot be taken away, let alone copied."

Yuan Zhizhou's eyes lit up as he listened. After hearing what Cheng Cheng said, Yuan Zhizhou suddenly expressed his emotion very seriously.

"Boss Bai, you are really a good person! No one in Yanjing can compare to you in character!"

These were very serious, solemn and earnest words, and Cheng Cheng felt a little embarrassed by the praise, and his ears felt slightly hot.

Seeing Yuan Zhizhou's attitude of respect and admiration, Zhang Yulin's eyes changed. What's wrong with this nerd? Is he cursed? !

"Hey, I'm looking for the boss. Why are you chatting with him?" Zhang Yulin said to Yuan Zhizhou in an unhappy and unfriendly tone.

Without waiting for Yuan Zhizhou to say anything, Zhang Yulin continued to speak to Cheng Cheng.

"Didn't you say you had those books here? I want to read them now, or I'll report you."

Although his words were threatening, his tone did not carry any threat.

It even made Chengcheng feel that the other party was still a child, otherwise why would he act like a spoiled child and a rogue.

"These books are not available for the time being, but you can read them if you want."

Cheng Cheng deliberately dragged out his tone and looked at the anxiety on Zhang Yulin's face before he spoke.

"These books were originally on the second floor. The books on the second floor are not for sale, and they can only be opened after the Spring Examination. However, for your grandfather's sake, I will temporarily open one book."

"It's just that I violated the rules I set for this price..." Cheng Cheng stopped talking and looked at Zhang Yulin with a serious look.

Zhang Yulin frowned, his heart filled with longing when he thought of those books.

Forget it, just let him earn some money.

"One hundred taels."

Just as Zhang Yulin was preparing to read the book with confidence, he heard the other party's smiling voice coming into his ears.

Cheng Cheng shook his head slightly, stretched out a hand, opened his palm, and said with a deep smile in his eyes, "Five thousand taels."

"what?!"

"You're stealing money!"

Zhang Yulin’s eyes widened and he looked at Chengcheng in disbelief.

Even Yuan Zhizhou, who was standing by, was shocked and looked disillusioned.

Seeing the expressions of the two people, Chengcheng couldn't help laughing out loud.

Just when both of them thought he was joking, Cheng Cheng stopped smiling and said to Zhang Yulin calmly, "I'm not joking, it's five thousand taels."

"Five thousand taels, and from now on you can read any book in the Wanshu Pavilion."

"At the same time, I will give you a sign. There will be a small private room on the second floor of Wanshu Pavilion that belongs to you exclusively. No one else can take it away. The term is five years."

"Since you've been buying books at Wanshu Pavilion these past two days, I'll give you a 50% discount. Two thousand five hundred taels. How about that? Do you want to do this deal?"

After saying that, Cheng Cheng kindly reminded again.

"However, it is only valid for half an hour. If it is longer, I will regret it. If it exceeds this time, it will cost five thousand taels of silver to make this transaction again."

"Oh, by the way, if you don't do this business today, you will have to wait a little longer. I promised the scholars of Dayan that I would open the books after the Spring Examination. You can wait until after the Spring Examination to read it."

After saying that, Chengcheng went back upstairs leisurely.

Leaving behind was Zhang Yulin with an ugly look on his face and Yuan Zhizhou with a stunned look on his face.

"You," before he could finish his words, he saw Zhang Yulin moving.

Looking at Zhang Yulin running away, the shock in Yuan Zhizhou's eyes was about to turn into reality and jump out.

He looked towards the door with a dazed look on his face.

This, this, is he going back to the mansion to get the money? Is he really going to spend 2,500 taels to buy a chance to read a book? So.

Wait, a chance to read a book?

Reading books???

Yuan Zhizhou looked at the books on the table, then at the countless books on the bookshelf beside him, and finally looked upstairs.

Suddenly, Yuan Zhizhou, who had a baby face, turned serious.

Like he had figured something out.

Suddenly, I stopped reading books.

He put the book back to its original place and left Wanshu Pavilion in a hurry.

upstairs

Cheng Cheng was shocked to see Zhang Yulin running away. Then, he saw Yuan Zhizhou, who came out later, also leaving in a hurry.

Now, Chengcheng could no longer maintain the calmness on his face.

He stared at Gu Jue with wide eyes.

"Isn't it!?"

"They would do such a scapegoat thing? Zhang Yulin is fine, but what's wrong with Yuan Zhizhou? Why does he want to be a scapegoat too?"

Chengcheng expressed his incomprehension, this was two thousand five hundred taels of silver!

This is no small amount.

Are they crazy?!
