These two manors were both under Yun Zhao's name, but on the surface, they belonged to other people.

These mushrooms have been picked. Some of them need to be dried, while others are picked directly and sent to shops in the capital to be sold.

After Yun Zhao came back from the farm, he went to the bookstore.

This bookstore was opened by Yun Zhao a few years ago. It has three floors. The first floor is full of books. There are many handwritten copies on the shelf on the left; the books on the right are for sale. In other places, pens, ink, paper and inkstones are sold at low, medium and high price levels.

There is also an inn next to it, which has nearly a hundred rooms, all of which are provided to scholars at low prices.

Many scholars would go to the second floor to copy books and then sell them to bookstores. Others could draw some calligraphy and paintings and sell them to bookstores, or exchange them for paper, ink, pens and inkstones in the bookstores.

In the past few years, no one knew that this bookstore was actually owned by Yun Zhao.

Yun Zhao picked out some pens, ink, paper and inkstone and paid for them.

Then went to the third floor.

The third floor contains ancient books, ancient calligraphy and paintings, which are not accessible to ordinary people. However, there is a viewing day every month, when scholars can come up to view them with the ID card issued by the bookstore.

When the shopkeeper saw Yun Zhao, he immediately bowed.

"I have met the boss."

"Get up, how is the shop these days?"

Hearing what Princess Chaoan said, the shopkeeper said with a smile.

"To reply to the boss, the closer it gets to winter, the better the business in our shop will be. Many of the calligraphy and paintings upstairs are selling very well now..."

The shopkeeper reported the situation of the bookstore to Princess Chaoan.

Yun Zhao had seen the calligraphy and paintings there many times before. Some people's paintings were indeed very spiritual and good. She would ask people to give a slightly higher price.

However, for some paintings that were of poor quality, the price would not be high. If the paintings were rough and sloppy, the quantity would be limited. She didn't want to ruin the reputation of the shop.

Just as the shopkeeper was talking to Yun Zhao, the waiter from the shop came to report.

"Boss, there is a fight between scholars on the second floor."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper quickly bowed to Yun Zhao.

"Boss, I'll go down and take a look at the situation."

After the shopkeeper went downstairs, Yun Zhao looked at Qin Shiyi.

"Send someone to check what's going on downstairs."

Hearing his master's words, Qin Shiyi immediately replied.

"My Lord, I have already sent someone to guard downstairs, and someone will come up to report soon."

As soon as Qin Shiyi finished speaking, he heard footsteps.

Soon, some of his men came in.

"Greetings, Master. A few scholars downstairs started fighting. Some scholars bumped into each other, and a valuable book was torn, and then two people started fighting..."

The book was torn and a fight broke out?

How could something like this happen in this bookstore?

Yun Zhao raised his eyebrows and walked downstairs.

As soon as I got to the second floor, I saw people gathered there from afar.

"Boss, he bumped into me and tore up the books himself. It has nothing to do with me." A fat scholar dressed in rich clothes said loudly.

"You obviously bumped into me on purpose. And you've targeted me more than once or twice."

The other scholar, who was dressed rather thinly, spoke angrily when he heard what the fat scholar said.

"I told you, this book is very valuable. I'll return it after I finish copying it today, and you can borrow it again."
