Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine
Chapter 418: If you don’t make money, you are a fool
Du Manting inquired all the way to Haolin Book Store with Qin Fangsui.
As soon as the two of them entered the door, the clerk in front of the counter said: "What books do you two girls want to buy? I can help you find it, and you can also come in and take a look."
The clerk Dong Jialin chose was also literate and had a bit of a bookish attitude, which complemented the bookstore.
"Did I buy the storybook "The Sword Points the Road to Jianghu" from you?" Du Manting asked directly.
"There are some."
"There are three copies in total, right? I want them all."
"I'm really sorry, girl," the clerk apologized. "The last one was sold out two days ago. It will take a few days to get it. You can watch the first two first. If you are in a hurry, you can pay part of the deposit first. The script has arrived. I can keep it for you and pick it up when you are free."
Du Manting frowned. It was just as the man in the teahouse said, there was actually one missing book.
"When will the last one come out?"
"It will probably take seven or eight days."
so long?
"What should I do Fangsui? I may not be able to wait any longer." Du Manting turned to Qin Fangsui and said.
Qin Fangsui thought about the proposal and said, "How about we pay the deposit first, and if the script is available after you leave the capital, I will send it to Liangzhou for you."
"Sending it from the capital to Liangzhou for a storybook?" It seemed a bit overwhelming, but Du Manting didn't have any better ideas besides that, and she really liked the storybook.
Just when she was about to nod, Dong Jialin, who also came from the teahouse, said, "Miss Du is going back to Liangzhou?"
Seeing him again, Du Manting and Qin Fangsui were both stunned.
Du Manting narrowed her eyes and said in a bad tone: "Are you following us? Tell me, what are your intentions?!"
Dong Jialin
Shocked by her words, he quickly raised his hands and explained: "Miss Du, please don't misunderstand me. I didn't know you were coming here too. I came here on important matters..."
"How could such a coincidence happen? Who did you fool?" Du Manting didn't believe it at all.
The waiter on the side kindly testified for Dong Jialin, "This bookstore belongs to Boss Dong, and he really has something to do here."
Du Manting looked at Dong Jialin in disbelief, "Did you open the bookstore?"
Dong Jialin didn't want too many people to know his identity, but after the words were spoken, he could only nod, "Exactly, so I did not follow the two girls."
Qin Fangsui was also surprised that the son of Zuo Du Yushi of the Ducha Yuan was doing business outside.
She asked in a low voice: "Man Ting, do you still want to buy the storybook?"
"Buy, why not buy? Didn't he say that the reason for opening the door is to do business." Du Manting took out the money, "The first two story books and the deposit for the last one are enough."
The boy looked at Dong Jialin and reached out to take the money. "That's enough, that's enough. Wait a moment, miss. I'll get you the storybook right now."
"Wait a minute," Dong Jialin called the waiter, "No deposit required, we will charge the price of three copies."
"What do you mean, boss?" the man asked uncertainly.
"Go and give the storybook I left to my friend to Miss Du."
"But Mr. Xu will come to pick it up tomorrow..."
"Go get it and I will explain it to him."
The guy responded and turned around to get it.
Soon the waiter brought three story books and the remaining money to Du Manting.
Du Manting took it, struggled internally for a moment, looked up and said quickly, "Thank you."
"As long as Miss Du likes it.
"
Dong Jialin only regards her as a guest. He can talk to his friends. If Miss Du leaves the capital, it means that he may sell one less storybook. He believes in accumulating less and making more money. He will make more money by selling more copies and will never let go of any money-making opportunity that comes to his door.
Du Manting took the script and left with satisfaction. After leaving the bookstore, she couldn't help but read through it, and the smile on her lips could no longer be suppressed.
"This Second Young Master Dong is quite good at doing things."
After getting no response for a while, Du Manting turned her head and saw Qin Fangsui beside her, who was lost in thought.
"Fangsui, what are you thinking about?"
Qin Fangsui came back to her senses and said, "I was wondering if the teahouse we just went to has something to do with Second Young Master Dong?"
"You mean that teahouse also belongs to him?" Du Manting opened her eyes wide.
"Why else would he be there?"
"Can't he just go for tea like us?"
Qin Fangsui shook her head slightly, "It's hard to say. Think about it, why are the stories told by the storyteller in the teahouse only sold at Haolin Bookstore? It happened that Mr. Dong appeared in these two stores one after another. The place, even if the teahouse doesn’t belong to him, I’m afraid it still has a deep relationship with him.”
"What you said makes sense," Du Manting said quickly after thinking about it, "Whatever, what does it have to do with us whether the teahouse is his? We are here to have fun, so why bother thinking about him instead of thinking about us? Where to go next.”
Qin Fangsui chuckled, "I'm here to accompany you. I can go wherever you want."
"Then I want to take a good look." Du Manting said and began to look around.
After spending a whole day shopping with Du Manting, Qin Fangsui was extremely tired and originally planned to
The next morning, I went to visit the old lady at Duke Dingguo's mansion. I got up late, so I had to go there in the afternoon.
When they arrived at Shouanyuan, they saw the old lady still lying on the bed. Qin Fangsui asked with concern before she even came near: "Old lady, are you feeling better?"
Although the old lady's waist was still hurting, she still waved happily when she saw her, "Sui'er is here, come and sit down..."
Qi's mother moved the embroidery stool to the bedside.
Qin Fangsui held the old lady's hand and sat down, "Manting is going back to Liangzhou, and she has to ask me to accompany her. I haven't been able to see you in the past two days, and I don't feel at ease."
The old lady smiled and said: "It's enough to know that you have this heart. You don't have to come every day. It's rare for the Du family's child to return to Beijing, so you two little sisters should spend more time together. I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. "
Recently, Qin Fangsui noticed that the old lady's complexion was much better than the previous two days, and thought that her waist disease was gradually getting better on its own.
"Sui'er, I see that you look good and are in much better spirits. Is this episode of back pain going to be over?"
"I also hope to get better soon, but this old bone is becoming more and more useless. I asked the girl from the Dong family to press it three times, but she still can't get out of bed." The old lady sighed.
Qin Fangsui was stunned when she heard this, "The old lady is talking about Dong Jiafu?"
"Only her craftsmanship can make me feel better for a few hours." The old lady looked at her and said, "I know you have feelings for her, and she is almost here. If you don't want to see her, go to the side room. Sit down."
"Whatever you said, everything has passed. Sui'er won't be so stingy in your heart, right? What's the big deal if we meet in person? I've met her several times before. She can make your waist disease better, I'm happy too,
When she comes later, I want to thank her in person. "
