Chapter 8

"Shopkeeper, don't blame me for not reminding you. Some people come into your store just to watch the excitement. If you go to such trouble to greet them, you may not make a penny in the end!" Wei Ran kindly reminded the shopkeeper of the bookstore.

"That's it!"

Yun Xiaoyou also stood up immediately.

"Some people are wandering around in this bookstore without buying. Doesn't this disturb other customers? I think you, the shopkeeper, should take good care of such customers."

Yun Xiaoyou only had to ask He Ming, the shopkeeper of Xuanyuan Bookstore, to drive Ling Xuewei out of the bookstore.

Wei Ran and Yun Xiaoyou looked at He Ming angrily, hoping that He Ming would quickly stand up and say something.

At this time, He Ming's face looked extremely ugly.

He stood at the counter with a troubled look on his face.

He didn't dare to offend anyone from these big families. Now that it was clear that it was the Wei family and the Yun family who were causing trouble for Ling Xuewei, He Ming didn't want to be dragged into the water by them at all.

His bookstore is just a small business. If he really offends any of these three companies, he will be left with nothing to lose.

The other customers in the bookstore were just watching the fun. No one thought that they just came to the bookstore to choose a book, but they would see such a wonderful show.

They could see with their own eyes that Ling Xuewei, who was very proud not long ago, was kicked out of the bookstore. Just because of this, they were able to brag a lot when they returned home today.

"Is it possible that all the books in this bookstore are rare books?" Ling Xuewei was still thinking about sweeping up the bookstore. At this moment, she was not willing to embarrass the owner of the bookstore. "Is it possible that I, Ling Xuewei, can't even find a single book?"

Can’t even afford it?”

"Who knows?" Wei Ran raised the corner of his mouth disdainfully, "Miss Ling San, I know that you must be very tight recently, so I advise you, don't pretend to be fat and come to Xuanyuan Bookstore to buy books to supplement your income.

It’s a facade.”

"Although you don't need to practice and have a lot of time, I'm afraid it's a little too late for you to pick up books again and become a talented woman now."

Wei Ran didn't care if Ling Xuewei really couldn't afford the book, she just wanted to humiliate Ling Xuewei.

So Wei Ran found Ling Xuewei's reasons for buying the book in just a few words.

Ling Xuewei has failed in cultivation and wants to study.

There were chuckles from the guests at Xuanyuan Bookstore.

"Shopkeeper, how much does your book cost?" Ling Xuewei didn't even bother to talk to Wei Ran.

Such a mad dog, the more you pay attention to her, the more energetic she will bark.

Ignoring her is the best revenge for her.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

Wei Ran is not the kind of person who treats you as if she doesn't exist, and she just sits aside and acts like nothing.

Ling Xuewei ignored her, but she took the initiative and came closer.

"Miss Ling San, how much does one book cost? Are you just buying cabbage on the street?" Wei Ran's eyes almost rolled to the sky, "Is it possible that you still want to buy these books by the pound?"

"Ms. Ling, the prices of all books are different. Cheaper books may only cost tens of pennies, while more expensive books are not bought at the original price, but cost hundreds of taels per set." He Ming

Answer Ling Xuewei's questions carefully.

Although he also felt that the question Ling Xuewei just asked was a bit ridiculous.

"I know!" Ling Xuewei nodded thoughtfully.

She walked to He Ming, took out a large stack of banknotes from her arms and placed them on the counter in front of He Ming.

"I want all the books in your bookstore!"

The moment Ling Xuewei slapped a thick stack of banknotes on the counter, the air in Xuanyuan Bookstore seemed to freeze.

The bookstore fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone stared at the stack of banknotes on the table in shock.

They just made a visual inspection and initially estimated that the pile of banknotes should be in the tens of thousands.

A steward of the outer courtyard of the Ling Mansion only earns one hundred taels of silver a year.

A steward with a small amount of power in a major family would need to work for a hundred years to earn ten thousand taels of silver.

And the silver Ling Xuewei just took out was definitely more than ten thousand taels.

Everyone has only seen the young masters from big families spending a lot of money in sensual places, but they have never seen anyone spending money in a bookstore, which is a place that only comes once in eight hundred years.

He Ming was also completely confused by Ling Xuewei's actions. He stared blankly at the banknotes in front of him and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Shopkeeper He, can you count?" Ling Xuewei coughed lightly.

He Ming picked up the banknote on the counter with trembling hands.

The minimum denomination of these banknotes was one thousand taels, and they were in a thick stack. He Ming carefully counted the numbers over and over again.

"Five...fifty thousand taels!"

After counting, He Ming only felt a mutual difficulty. He had never seen so much money in his life.

The other guests were also stunned by the fifty thousand taels.

The third young lady of Ling Mansion who has fallen out of favor is a bit too generous!

"What? Isn't this money enough to buy all the books in your bookstore?" Ling Xuewei looked at He Ming seriously.

"Enough! Enough!" He Ming recovered from the shock and said quickly, "Miss Ling, fifty thousand taels of silver is not to mention buying all the books in our bookstore. You just want to buy our book store."

That’s more than enough for the whole shop!”

"What? Fifty thousand taels of silver can buy your shop? Xuanyuan Bookstore?" Ling Xuewei was very surprised.

The price of buying the next store seemed to be much cheaper than she imagined.

Ling Xuewei is actually also thinking about what she can rely on to survive in this strange Tianxuan Continent.

Although she is not short of money at all now, she cannot sit back and wait for all her money to be spent, and she will have nothing.

Ling Xuewei had never even thought about expecting the Ling family to give her money.

Having a bookstore that belongs entirely to her is a good business.

Ling Xuewei can not only make money from this bookstore, but can also do many other things.

"What? Is Miss Ling interested in Xuanyuan Bookstore?"

At this time, a fat man came from the back of the bookstore and looked at Ling Xuewei with a smile.

"Miss Ling, this is Zhang Dagui, the owner of our Xuanyuan Bookstore." He Ming quickly introduced.

"It turns out to be Boss Zhang!" Ling Xuewei suddenly realized.

She didn't expect that the fifty thousand taels of silver notes would alert even the bookstore owner.

If she wants Xuanyuan Bookstore, she must talk directly to the owner of Xuanyuan Bookstore.

"I am indeed interested in this bookstore. I wonder if Boss Zhang is willing to part with it."

Ling Xuewei was too lazy to beat around the bush. As long as Zhang Dagui was willing to sell the bookstore, everything would be easy to discuss.

This is not a question of money at all. If Zhang Dagui is unwilling to sell the bookstore, it will be useless no matter how much she says.

"Miss Ling is a cheerful person!"

The smile on Zhang Dagui's face became brighter and brighter. He reached out and took the 50,000 taels of silver notes that Su Lu had left on the counter and put it into his arms.

Then he handed a small locked rosewood box to Ling Xuewei along with the key.

"There are house deeds, as well as all the documents related to this store, all in this box. You pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand. Now this store, including the shopkeeper and clerk in the store, belongs to Miss Ling!"

"

Ling Xuewei looked at Zhang Dagui dumbfounded.

She felt that she was already very happy, but she didn't expect that Zhang Dagui was even more straightforward than her. He even skipped the steps of negotiation and bargaining, and directly transferred the store to her with the money.

Zhang Dagui didn't seem to want to stay at Xuanyuan Bookstore any longer. After he handed over everything in the bookstore to Ling Xuewei, he dragged his somewhat fat body and disappeared in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.

It's not just Ling Xuewei who can't come back to her senses.

He Ming, the shopkeeper of Xuanyuan Bookstore, as well as all the clerks, as well as the guests who wanted to buy books in Xuanyuan's story, all looked at everything in front of them with their mouths wide open.

Who could have imagined that Xuanyuan Bookstore would change owners in the blink of an eye.

Ling Xuewei became the owner of Xuanyuan Bookstore.

Buying a bookstore with fifty thousand taels of silver is really crazy.

Ling Xuewei is most afraid of trouble. It doesn't matter to her that she can take over the largest bookstore in Xuanyuan Kingdom so easily, even if she has to spend a little more money.

What's more, the 50,000 taels of silver she took out in the beginning was just to buy books.

Now it's better, not only have I bought all the books in this bookstore, but also the entire store.

This is quite a bargain for Ling Xuewei.

Ling Xuewei was used to seeing strong winds and waves. She was the first to recover from the shock. It was just 50,000 taels of silver to buy a bookstore. This was not a big deal.

Ling Xuewei glanced at the bookstore calmly, and when her eyes fell on Wei Ran and Yun Xiaoyou, a smile appeared on her lips.

Now that she owns this bookstore, don't blame her for being rude!

"I believe you have also seen that the little lady just bought this bookstore. Now she needs to do a comprehensive inventory of the bookstore. It will be closed today. Customers who have selected books can pay directly. Customers who have not selected books will soon pay for them.

Sorry, please come back tomorrow."

Ling Xuewei smiled and ordered the guests to be kicked out.

Ling Xuewei's reasons are sufficient. She spent fifty thousand taels of silver to buy this bookstore. Naturally, she needs to take a good inventory of the store.

All guests are very understanding and take their books to the counter to pay.

As for those who did not pick up the book, they could only leave with regret.

The bookstore is right here and it won’t be lost. It’s the same thing if they come over on another day to pick and buy slowly.

Wei Ran and Yun Xiaoyou were the two people who picked out the books from the beginning. They saw Ling Xuewei coming to the bookstore and came over to cause trouble for her.

After Wei Ran and Yun Xiaoyou saw that Xuanyuan Bookstore was now owned by Ling Xuewei, the two selected books they held in their hands were as disgusting as eating flies.

It doesn’t matter if they buy it, it doesn’t matter if they don’t buy it.
