I open a bookstore in the human world

what?Sun Xuelin was stunned, rubbed his eyes, and looked again, but saw nothing.

Probably misunderstood... Sun Xuelin was thinking.As he thought about it, he reached for the key chain on his waist - the bicycle key was hanging on it.

A strange thing happened at this time, Sun Xuelin didn't feel the familiar metal texture, but a soft, cold and slightly wet thing.

What's this?Sun Xuelin frowned, subconsciously raised his palm, looked at it under the flickering light, and almost sat down on the ground in fright!

Blood... blood!Sun Xuelin's eyes were protruding, his mouth was wide open, and he looked at his palms covered with red liquid in horror, his back was soaked in cold sweat, his legs were shaking like they were being sifted through a sieve, and he looked ridiculous and pitiful.

Before the matter was over, a faint voice sounded in Sun Xuelin's ear again. It seemed to be a woman with a sharp voice speaking.

Sun Xuelin has a net height of 1.7m[-]. Due to the habit of running in the morning all the year round, he is physically strong. Although he is approaching his sixtieth year, he is still full of black hair. He looks ten years younger than his actual age. In terms of strength, he is even stronger than some young boys Even bigger.But it was such a man who seemed to be strong and strong, but at this moment he was in a mess.

Rationality told Sun Xuelin to run quickly, but his legs just didn't listen, they were as soft as noodles, and they seemed to be filled with lead, unable to move...

The black shadow that Sun Xuelin saw at the beginning reappeared, and this time he could see clearly that the black shadow was a woman in white, with her back to him, as if feeling Sun Xuelin's gaze, she turned around slowly... The woman's "front" also had no face, and what should have been facial features turned out to be a head of long black hair!

"Ah!!!" Sun Xuelin finally couldn't help but let out a terrible scream, his legs finally couldn't support him, and his butt fell to the ground.

At this time, the wind was so strong that people couldn't open their eyes. After the wind stopped, Sun Xuelin found that everything had returned to normal.The female ghost, the voice calling his name, and the blood on the palms are all gone, only the street lamp above his head is still flickering, and his bicycle is parked less than one meter in front of him. The place.

Sun Xuelin felt as if he had just had a nightmare, and now he woke up from the dream, and the world returned to normal.

When the noise of the city came from the street outside, Sun Xuelin shuddered, got up from the ground in embarrassment, took out the car keys tremblingly, aimed at the keyhole for a long time, and after unlocking, climbed onto the bicycle at the fastest speed in his life. , legs exerted strength, and quickly kicked the car away.

After Sun Xuelin left, two figures, a man and a woman, flashed out of the empty carport. One was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, the other was wearing a long white dress, with black hair tied to his chest. Peaceful and beautiful.

"That's the end, I haven't played enough yet." Xiao'e pouted, with an expression of unfinished content on her face.

Lin Se opened the water glass and took a sip of water, then said slowly, "Okay, Brother Song said it was just to scare him, but don't really scare him stupid."

Xiao'e frowned, "It's his own fault for being scared and foolish! Let's just forget about his incompetence, but he is jealous of our bookstore and secretly handed in a report letter. This kind of behavior is really abominable!"

"Forget it, let's sit upright, what are you afraid of him doing? It's all right to teach him a little lesson this time. I'm afraid Vice Mayor Li is also very angry, and I'm afraid he has nothing to do with it." Good fruit to eat." Linse raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

***

Sun Xuelin felt that he had been really unlucky recently. He had just been in shock in the carport, but in the blink of an eye he received a call from Deputy Mayor Li's secretary, saying that the mayor wanted to "chat" with him.

chat?Not long after he handed over the report letter, he said that he wanted to chat with him. Sun Xuelin knew very well what the content of the chat would be.

It seems that this is going to be settled after autumn.

Sun Xuelin went to the Municipal Party Committee building with apprehensive and complicated feelings, and walked into the office of Vice Mayor Li as if a brave man was going to die.

An hour later, Sun Xuelin came out full of shame and dejected.The secretary sent him to the elevator with a formulaic smile on his face. Seeing that he seemed to be in a bad mood, he asked with concern, "Do you want the driver to take you back?"

"No, no need!" Sun Xuelin hurriedly waved his hands when he heard the words, shaking his head like a rattle.

Seeing what he said, the secretary didn't force it, but just watched him leave in the elevator, pouted, feeling a little disapproving.

Sun Xuelin walked on the road with a dull expression, still thinking about the content of the conversation with Deputy Mayor Li earlier.

As soon as he entered the office, before he had time to say hello, Deputy Mayor Li handed him a stack of materials, and only said, "Take a look first, and tell me what you think after reading it." I went to work.

Sun Xuelin flipped through the stack of documents, his face became more and more ugly the more he looked at it.

In fact, he is not unfamiliar with the contents of the materials. On the contrary, he is still very familiar with some of them. It is the book rafting activity that the state-run bookstore and the city government cooperated with back then.

The other information is the detailed information of the project of "Scholarly Man Xingzhou·Mobile Book Kiosks".

The two documents compared the two projects from various aspects, and the various data clearly showed that the latter was completely crushing the former in terms of strength.

Sun Xuelin finally understood the purpose of Deputy Mayor Li for letting him see these two documents: the skills are not as good as others, so who is to blame?

"Finish?" Deputy Mayor Li seemed to have taken care of his own affairs and turned his attention to him.

Sun Xuelin muttered: "Mayor Li, I..."

What should he say?Apologize?

"If it's an apology, you don't have to say it. I don't have time to listen, and I don't want to. I didn't ask you here today to hear your apology," Deputy Mayor Li interrupted Sun Xuelin, "What I want to hear is What do you learn from it. I think you should understand why the government chooses shadow bookstores instead of state-run bookstores?"

Sun Xuelin lowered his head in shame: it is an indisputable fact that state-run bookstores have been losing money year after year, and he is really powerless to refute it.

"In the past, you always complained that the government didn't give you much support, but what about the support? Isn't it the same? Does the government give special treatment to shadow bookstores? Let me tell you clearly, this bookstore Everything the bookstore got today was earned by them innocently, without any improper transactions or favors..." Deputy Mayor Li looked at Sun Xuelin angrily, as if he was looking at a man who obviously had good learning resources. A scumbag who doesn't make good use of it.

What Vice Mayor Li said made Sun Xuelin feel ashamed, but he had to admit that what the other party said was correct.Maybe he should really reflect on himself. The bookstore has fallen into such a situation. What is the reason, or there is a problem with his management method.

At the end, Deputy Mayor Li gave him Song Lan's business card and said: "There is the contact information of the owner of Shadow Bookstore Song on it. It's just my personal suggestion. You'd better come to learn from him in person and see what he does. Manage the bookstore."

Now, Sun Xuelin is holding this business card, and he is fighting between heaven and man in his heart——

Should I go find that Song Lan?I am the person in charge of a state-owned bookstore, and I humbly go to a small owner of a private bookstore. Wouldn't it be a little too cheap to say it?However, this was proposed by Vice Mayor Li himself. If he didn't go, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to the mayor?

In fact, Sun Xuelin is still willing to go, after all, he also hopes that the state-run bookstore will become better.It's just that he cares too much about his face, and he always feels that it's a bit embarrassing to go to Song Lan in his own capacity, and it's too embarrassing to spread the word.

After some struggle, Sun Xuelin took out his mobile phone and called Song Lan—what is face?Can it be eaten as a meal?

What Sun Xuelin didn't expect was that Boss Song was very enthusiastic when he heard his request, as if he didn't know that he had secretly reported the Shadow Bookstore, so he immediately made an appointment with Sun Xuelin, saying that it would be more convenient to talk about it in person.This made Sun Xuelin both moved and ashamed, deeply aware of how despicable his previous behavior was, and how broad-minded Boss Song was.

——If Sun Xuelin knew the truth about how he was frightened that night, I'm afraid he wouldn't have this illusion.

Sun Xuelin arrived at the small private room on the second floor of the main store of Shadow Bookstore according to the agreed time.

This private room was newly built after the shadow bookstore was refurbished and expanded. The interior is decorated in a Japanese style with tatami mats. Guests need to take off their shoes to enter the private room.

Sun Xuelin did not expect that Boss Song of the Shadow Bookstore was so young.In his opinion, to be able to run an extremely ordinary bookstore so impressively in just a few years, at least he must be a middle-aged man with a lot of experience, right?

But after some conversation, Sun Xuelin knew that he had underestimated Boss Song. This person was definitely not as simple as he appeared on the surface.

For Sun Xuelin, at least on the surface, Song Lan is very enthusiastic. He said that he had already heard about Sun Xuelin's intentions from Vice Mayor Li. , so that Sun Xuelin, who was a little cautious at the beginning, gradually relaxed.

Not only that, Song Lan also told Sun Xuelin about the growth history of Shadow Bookstore in detail, directly and politely pointed out several obvious loopholes in the current management of the state-run bookstore, and put forward several reasonable and feasible suggestions.

Facing such an enthusiastic Song Lan, Sun Xuelin was even more ashamed.

——Looking at Boss Song, this level of thinking is high. He, Sun Xuelin, was really a villain before.

The sun was setting towards the west, so Sun Xuelin reluctantly left the Shadow Bookstore.Before leaving, Song Lan asked the clerk to pack a few packs of scented tea for Sun Xuelin to take away, saying that during the conversation, he saw that Sun Xuelin drank a lot, and he thought he liked the taste of the tea.

Sun Xuelin sighed again: This Boss Song is not only articulate when it comes to business, but also very considerate in terms of human relations and sophistication. He is really a rare talent.

After Sun Xuelin went back, he really accepted many of Song Lan's suggestions to reform the state-run bookstore. The business has indeed improved a lot, and the situation of being unable to make ends meet no longer appeared.

Because the sales of state-run bookstores in Xingzhou have increased significantly, this has attracted the attention of other state-run bookstores and the department in charge of state-run bookstores. Sun Xuelin was specially invited to speak at the state-run bookstore summary meeting at the end of the year.In a short 5-minute speech, Sun Xuelin mentioned the name of the Shadow Bookstore several times, saying that the state-owned bookstore in Xingzhou was "resurrected" thanks to the guidance of the owner of the Shadow Bookstore Song "The bookstore was deeply impressed, and the shadow bookstore has also entered the vision of many bookstore leaders.

Of course, this is something for later, so I won’t show it here.
