Chapter 363 Temporary accommodation in the bookstore

A simple bed was placed quietly against the bookshelf inside the bookstore.

At night, the bookstore lights up small orange lights, illuminating the inside of the bookstore with warm tones.

There are three or four beds next to it, and they are all occupied by people who read in the bookstore during the day.

One of them was explaining to a group of children during the day and seemed to be an employee on night shift in the bookstore.

The young man swept around.

The people here all look like travelers, carrying big schoolbags next to them, and they seem to be staying here for the night.

"Brother, where are you from?"

A curly-haired guy was lying on another bed, with a book spread out in front of him, and asked curiously.

This curly-haired boy looks about 22 or 23 years old. He has bright blue eyes and looks a bit like a mixed race.

The young man said, "I'm from Donghuan."

"Are you from Donghuan? I'm from Xihuan!!" Suddenly an excited voice sounded from another bed.

Then a young man with glasses raised the book in his hand and said, "We are fellow villagers!"

The young man was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Yes! Fellow!!"

Donghuan and Xihuan can live several cities apart, just because they are from the same province, so on this remote Nanjiang island, they are indeed considered fellow villagers.

"I saw you during the day. Are you an employee of the bookstore?" The young man with glasses turned his head and asked Chen Jianhai next to him.

"It doesn't count? I'm here to help." Chen Jianhai hesitated and replied.

Regarding his identity, Chen Jianhai was very accurate.

Even if you push me harder, you are still the boss!

According to the normal flow of life, he should lie on the soft island hotel bed and play games at night.

But tonight, Chen Jianhai really had a hint of the wandering thoughts of a literary young man.

Growing up, he had slept in many hotel beds.

This was the first time I slept on the floor in a bookstore, and I was a little excited thinking about it.

It's just that the bed is not long enough, and Chen Jianhai's calves are hanging out, making it very uncomfortable.

With just one sentence, everyone was completely chattering away.

In addition to budget travel like youth, the guy with glasses and the guy with curly hair all came to the marathon venue on the island.

They had seen the beautiful environment of the island on TV before, and they came up with the idea of ​​​​going for a run.

At first, the two of them stayed at a fisherman's house, and today they walked around the island and then left by boat.

But unexpectedly, in this turn, I climbed the mountain inexplicably and discovered this library.

What happens next is the same as the experience of young people.

Everyone was so overwhelmed by the rich and large number of bibliophiles here that they missed the boat in the evening, and were finally stayed by the kind-hearted employees.

The movable bookshelf on the first floor created a small, closed and safe space for them.

Maybe it’s because of the crowds and bustle,

Instead of giving people a terrible sense of depression, the dark books surrounding them made me feel as if I was lying in a paradise of books.

“After sitting here for a day, my phone still has 73% battery left.”

The curly-haired guy took out his cell phone and said something in surprise.

"There are so many books here, who is still looking at the phone!" The guy with glasses turned over, put the finished book back on the bookshelf, and then took out a new one.

""The Feasible Operation of Medieval Black Magic in Cattle Farming""

"As the importance of cattle for farming became more and more prominent, Western folk in the Middle Ages gradually began to experiment with black magic on cattle,"

"Under the influence of black magic, each of the cattle had three heads, and they were extremely powerful. The grain production that year was a bumper harvest..."

“Which country was this book written by????”

The guy with glasses read the title and introduction of the book, and finally asked a question from the depths of his soul in astonishment.

The cover of the book is quite beautifully made, and you can still see the rose-paint seals of medieval tourist attractions on the surface.

Turn it over and look at the pricing again:

"$179!" the guy with glasses exclaimed.

Is the owner of this bookstore too generous?

Spend so much money on a book like this!

"You are so rich..." the glasses guy sighed sincerely.

Just as he was talking, the glasses guy suddenly shrank his pupils and looked at Chen Jianhai in surprise.

Chen Jianhai stood up, took down two large piles of books from the bookshelf, and placed them neatly under the bed.

Finally, the books were placed at the same height as the bed board.

"I feel comfortable this time."

Chen Jianhai placed two pieces of paper on top of the book, then put his legs on the book and lay down comfortably.

This time I was finally able to stretch my legs.

"It's so nice here. If I could stay here, I would be able to read all the books here."

The young man sat on the bed, holding the gifted 2-yuan book in his hand, and spoke melancholy.

"Stay!" The curly-haired boy has a cheerful and chatty personality. "We have been sleeping here for two days. We only need to help clean up during the day, feed the cat food, and help change the books on the special bookshelf."

"I go to the island to have a meal during the day, and the rest of the time I stay here playing with the cat and reading a book. It's more enjoyable than being at home."

The young man was surprised, "Really! No accommodation fee?"

The curly-haired boy said: "No!"

"I heard that the boss set the rules. As long as you come to read books and are willing to help with the bookkeeping and work in the bookstore, you can stay here for free at night."

It’s simply better than having sex for free!

The young man was shocked.

Looking at a room full of books, the young man sighed with emotion: "The owner of this bookstore is really an amazing person."

"I don't know who the owner of this bookstore is. If I have the chance, I really want to meet him!"

The curly-haired boy turned over the "Feasible Operations of Medieval Black Magic in Cattle Farming" in his hand and said;

"No, this boss is much better than the boss of the island hotel down the mountain."

Um???

Upon hearing this, Chen Jianhai was unhappy.

He felt quite pleased with himself when he heard these people praising him.

Why did you suddenly scold the master?

The curly-haired boy said: "Every bookstore knows how to save money and save money, and provide emergency relief to us readers, giving us readers a roof and green tiles to protect them from the wind and rain."

“That hotel at the foot of the mountain actually charges money for accommodation!!!”

When Chen Jianhai heard this, he almost picked up the book in his hand and smashed him to death.

Whose hotel is free of charge!!

Is this human language?

"The most hateful thing is the customer service manager of the hotel." The curly-haired boy said, closing the book in his hand with an angry look.

“I asked a question online at the Kojima Hotel, but his answer was quite perfunctory!”

Chen Jianhai couldn't help but speak: "What are you asking about?"

The curly-haired guy said, "I wonder if I can stay here if I don't have money?"

"It took four days for the other party to reply to me and said: Hello, distinguished guest, thank you for your consultation and wish you a happy life."

"Do you think you are angry or not?"

Chen Jianhai: Why the hell am I not mad at you...!
