Late Night Bookstore

Chapter 1569: Tracing the origin (middle)

Views:

Yin and Yang divide the world into two, and humans and ghosts have different paths.

Two flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty.

No matter how severe the turmoil in hell is, in the world of the living, it will still be windy as it should be and rainy as it should be.

After last night's heavy bombing,

People still have to continue to get busy with the new day.

The sun shines into the library on time;

The owner of the bookstore was lying there punctually to keep his appointment with Chaoyang.

On South Street, which is just across the window, the smell of summer has already spread even in the morning. If pedestrians walk a little faster, beads of sweat will fall unconsciously.

Boss Zhou was sitting in the air-conditioned bookstore, the newspaper headline in his hand was about the increasingly severe reports on global warming.

Yingying came over with coffee and placed the cup on the coffee table in front of Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze silently moved the newspaper away, reached into his pocket, and took out a small gift box.

Yingying's eyes unconsciously followed the gift box.

"For you."

Yingying opened the gift box, and inside was a ring.

The diamond on it isn't very big, but if you insist that it is small, you'd be being unscrupulous.

Both the shape and the style are trendy. Of course, the carat weight is also luxurious yet simple.

"Thank you, boss."

Zhou Ze nodded and continued to cover his face with the newspaper.

far away,

The white fox rolled its eyes at this side.

No matter how cruel and ruthless this man in front of me is in other matters, he is always so stiff and suffocating when it comes to matters between men and women.

This is when facing my own maid, if it's facing other women...

When the white fox thought of this, he frowned slightly, as if the woman with a pair of long legs also liked this.

Yes, the ring was bought by Baihu for Zhou Ze.

As for why it was sent the day after Chinese Valentine's Day, Baihu could understand.

For other men, no matter what gifts they give or what attention they show on Valentine's Day, it is all for the purpose of shooting that night.

But the man reading the newspaper...

Well, so there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with giving a gift today.

Yingying was very happy to receive the gift from her boss.

Yingying is not short of money. In recent years, although she has been using her own funeral objects to support her boss,

But now is the time of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, a time of peace and prosperity, with good governance and people living and working in peace and contentment.

As the saying goes, antiques are treasures of prosperous times, so Yingying still has a lot of burial objects left.

But, my boss is poor!

Giving a gift is really not easy.

It’s like someone has ten dollars and gives you ten dollars, and another person has ten million and gives you ten dollars. Can they be the same

Although most people would still choose the one with 10 million...

But no matter what,

This ring is enough to make Yingying happy for a long, long time.

"Boss, I'll go to the back and pick some vegetables."

"Um."

After Yingying walked out of the bookstore with the basket, the white fox immediately jumped onto the sofa in front of Zhou Ze.

"There is also a smaller ring, is this intended for the doctor

Eating from the bowl and looking at the pot,

Oh, man. "

"Wedding rings."

"Two wedding rings of different weights?" the white fox asked back.

"Not enough money."

If there is not enough money, the second coin will naturally be reduced in size.

Baihu was stunned for a moment. For a moment, it seemed difficult to tell whether it was true or false. After all, the boss of the bookstore in front of him was really poor.

"Aren't you going to hell?"

Many people in the bookstore went to hell.

"In hell, are there any positions for demons?"

"You still have time to cut your neck now."

"Haha, speaking of which, a large group of people under you have gone to change their jobs, and you don't feel bad at all?"

Zhou Ze was too lazy to pay attention to her. He picked up the coffee, took a sip, and looked at the people outside.

"Or do you think that you don't have much time left, so you might as well let your subordinates who have followed you for several years have a good future?"

Zhou Ze continued to remain silent.

"Forget it if you don't answer."

"You talk a lot today."

The white fox jumped onto the coffee table in front of Zhou Ze.

bend over,

Open your mouth,

A white inner pill was spat out from his mouth.

"This is the inner elixir I just condensed in the past year. You can keep it. It can't compare with the dragon vein, but at the critical moment, even eating one more candy bean can give you a little more strength."

Zhou Ze reached out and picked up the inner elixir.

This inner elixir looks like a night pearl and can probably be sold for a lot of money.

"Why is today's painting style a bit confusing?"

"Don't think that our White Fox clan has no other skills except hooking up with poor scholars. In fact, we are very smart. I came in late and don't have any special connections. This can be regarded as a token of my loyalty."

Zhou Ze smiled.

Throw the demon pill back to the white fox,

road:

"I accept your kindness, please take the gift back."

The white fox swallowed the inner elixir again and said:

"Don't look down on it?"

Zhou Ze shook his head and said, "It's useless."

"So negative and hopeless?"

Zhou Ze remained silent.

The white fox turned around and returned to his favorite corner.

Zhou Ze spread out the newspaper again.

I was thinking,

At this moment,

Lawyer An,

You've got what you wanted, right

If Lawyer An becomes the King of Equality, a large number of people under the bookstore who deserve to be promoted will naturally be promoted. At least, this future is guaranteed.

As the boss, he doesn't owe them anything.

Outside,

The wind is blowing.

Different from the warm wind in summer which makes people feel more anxious, this wind brings a refreshing coolness.

At the door,

The figure of the old Taoist appeared.

The little monkey was still held in his arms.

Open the door.

The old Taoist came in.

He looked at Zhou Ze first.

Zhou Ze put down the newspaper.

"Done?" Zhou Ze asked.

"It's done." The old Taoist replied.

It’s simple and straightforward, like the auntie selling roujiamo at the roadside stall.

"Give me two steamed buns."

"Ten dollars."

In the context of the two people, the position of King of Equality that Lawyer An longed for was not much different from a roujiamo.

Zhou Ze stretched out his hand, pointed at the opposite wall, and said:

“It’s mounted.”

Zhou Ze asked Yingying to put up the landscape painting that the Taoist priest and Lawyer An brought back to the bookstore on the wall last night.

Not too big, not too small, just the right size.

In fact, an ink painting pasted on the wall can add a scholarly atmosphere to the decoration of the study. After all, this painting is indeed very well painted.

The only drawback,

Maybe it's because there are only scenery but no people or objects in it, which makes it seem not lively enough and a little cold.

The old Taoist put the little monkey down and walked to the painting.

The little monkey walked to the white fox with his round belly, burping from time to time.

The white fox has a keen nose and it smelled a terrifying spiritual energy from the burp.

For a moment, everyone's eyes were filled with envy!

In the little monkey's eyes, there was only residual fear and despair.

Yes, the old Taoist stuffed all of the Ganoderma lucidum that Dizang had cultivated for hundreds of years into its mouth. Fortunately, it was a demon monkey with a strong body, but even so, it was still bloated.

"If you feel uncomfortable, you can spit some out and I will help you catch it."

The white fox said with concern.

At this time,

The old Taoist suddenly uttered a "huh".

The white fox felt as if it had been electrocuted. Its hair stood up and it immediately crawled on the ground in fear.

The little monkey burped again, walked over, hugged the white fox, and glared back at the Taoist priest.

The old Taoist ignored it.

You should know that

A moment ago,

The old Taoist once climbed the top of Mount Tai.

Destroyed the three giants in a row,

I just put one end ^(* ̄(oo) ̄)^,

Oh no,

He forcibly pushed an incompetent person to the position of King of Equality.

at this time,

Even if there is still a little bit of gunpowder smell on the body,

This is definitely not something that this little white fox can afford.

"I said so."

The old Taoist turned around and looked at Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze put down his coffee and looked at the old Taoist priest.

"Xuanyuan Sword, is it time to find you?"

"It's my turn."

Zhou Ze had another dream last night.

Xuanyuan Sword,

It is already at the center of his eyebrows.

The old Taoist laughed.

“That’s really fast.”

Zhou Ze said nothing.

The old Taoist pursed his lips and continued:

"In fact, when I was in Dizang, I was outdone. I know this clearly."

"oh."

“So, I am a little hesitant now.”

"What are you hesitating about?"

"I hesitated, should I stay here and wait to see you being chopped by the Xuanyuan Sword? Or should I go back early to avoid being beaten again?"

"As you wish."

"They will probably be back in the evening."

"So hasty?"

"They still have some idea of who is the real boss. At least, before you are killed by the Xuanyuan Sword, they will still be as obedient as dogs in front of you."

“I don’t really like this metaphor.”

"Oh, I forgot, you like to talk about dogs as friends."

After that,

The old Taoist took a few steps back.

Sat down on the sofa,

road:

"Then I'd better wait a little longer."

Zhou Ze smiled and said:

"Or do you want to see what happens to me?"

"I won't watch it. I won't watch it."

The old Taoist waved his hands.

Continued:

"I am a timid person. I am most afraid of seeing blood. It makes me panic and dizzy. I can't stand seeing such tragic things in my life."

"hehe."

"Stay and have dinner with you guys first, and then leave. At least, I have to give you a glass of wine before you leave."

"Thank you for your kindness."

"It should be. At least we were destined to be together. I can't let you go away alone. When someone dies in this world, the wreaths sent by some big shot in some unit should be more significant, right?"

"That's right."

"That's right. With me, the Lord of Mount Tai, here to see you off, it can't be considered shabby at least, right?"

"It's okay."

Next,

It's a long silence.

After the silence,

It is a sigh from an old Taoist.

As if asking Zhou Ze,

It's like talking to myself.

He pointed at his nose.

road:

"I have obviously dodged the Xuanyuan Sword,

But why do I still have the illusion that I have been killed by it?"

————

There is one last great climax, and then the bookstore will come to an end.

Maybe, around the end of the month.
