"It's still my brother who understands me. Of course, I thought about the time, so I asked someone to help. ”

Chapter 91 broke up again

"It's still my brother who understands me. Of course, I thought about the time, so I asked someone to help. ”

Yu Lan was stunned: "What, don't you just let me work?" ”

"Of course, you and I have equal rights." Wu Xiaofeng walked over and held Yu Lan's shoulder: "This bookstore is our own, except for being forced to close the door, you and I will not be laid off, we have absolute autonomy." Yu Lan's eyes were a little moist, being laid off has become commonplace over the years, and she has been staying at home for the past two years, which is quite boring.

After a while, Xiang Ming quietly pulled Wu Xiaofeng to the side: "Is it necessary to worry about being tired?" Our family is not yet in a time of economic tension, so why waste so much energy and time? ”

Wu Xiaofeng looked at him seriously: "In addition to writing, I should know anything else, I think I should also have a career of my own, even if it is small and unsuccessful, it is my own, I must try it." I didn't open a bookstore to make much profit, you see we have a lot of books, and after reading them, we rarely read them repeatedly, and it's a pity to sit idle here for ten or eight years? Running a bookstore, relatively speaking, has little investment, and I am more familiar with books, so I want more people to be able to see their favorite books without spending too much money, isn't it great? ”

"I can't tell you, you tell me, what do I do?" Xiang Tomorrow looked at her helplessly

Wu Xiaofeng smiled: "Then there is no need, with me and my sister-in-law, you just wait for some money to be my shareholder, and then come to see me from time to time, and say that you will inspect the work as a shareholder, isn't it?" How justified" she laughed at herself, her eyes crooked, and she was particularly charming.

Xiang Tomorrow was directly telegraphed by her, and she couldn't say a lot of words, only one sentence: "You guy, you can figure it out." Then he hugged her tightly, and he wanted her to be happy, and let him do whatever he wanted as long as she was happy

――――――――――――――――――

It's very simple to say, but it's difficult to do, the first thing is to find a house, either the rent is too expensive, or the location is not good, Wu Xiaofeng looks at the right one, and people are also scrambling, just the house, it takes a lot of effort. finally rented a house, and had to apply for those miscellaneous certificates, I couldn't meet this person today, I couldn't find that person tomorrow, and I wanted this certificate and that certificate, Wu Xiaofeng and Yu Lan, who were inexperienced, ran a lot of wrongful ways. Fortunately, the licenses of those public security, industry and commerce, taxation, culture and other departments have been exhausted.

During this period, Wu Xiaofeng was busy with custom-made bookshelves, she initially wanted to customize, and contacted several furniture factories, but the design and price were not suitable. In the end, Wu Xiaofeng still decided to spend a few more money and order directly from a large company, the money was spent more, but the grade of the entire book house was still improved, and the decoration of the book house should not be too shabby, which must be done

"Is it possible to save some money on renovation? Otherwise, the investment is a bit big? Yu Lan was worried, she knew that this business was low-profit, close to public welfare. At the insistence of her and Wu Xiaolin, Wu Xiaofeng finally agreed, not only to borrow books, but also to sell some books, so that a small part of the income was finally guaranteed.

To be honest, these two people really don't support their sister's business ideas, but they know that Wu Xiaofeng has a dream since he was a child, so he has to support it, but he doesn't want his sister to really lose money and do business. After thinking about it, the two said to Xiang Mingming, and said to Ming Ming that they would ask for Wu Xiaofeng's opinion. After the final discussion, Wu Xiaofeng also understood the worries of her brother and sister-in-law, they were pragmatic, and she herself was still floating in the air like a suspended object.

"Do you agree with them?" In private, Wu Xiaofeng quietly asked about tomorrow.

Just smile at tomorrow. Wu Xiaofeng understands that profitability is also a big deal. Since then, she has engraved this concept in her head. She is still too naïve, if she doesn't earn a penny, she really lets her sister-in-law work for nothing?

"Also, our bookstore should always be different, and I want to tell you when I am mature."

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

As for the name of the bookstore, it really took a lot of trouble. Xiang Mingming and Wu Xiaolin insisted on using "Xiaofeng Bookstore", because Wu Xiaofeng still has a certain reputation in the city. But Wu Xiaofeng has always thought that the word "tomorrow" is the best, "tomorrow" is full of vitality and hope, and he will insist on tomorrow, Wu Xiaofeng made Xiang tomorrow shut up with one sentence: "What, is your name registered?" Why can't we use it? ”

When it comes to this, Xiang Tomorrow no longer insists, and the name uses "tomorrow", which seems to others to be like a bookstore open to tomorrow, at this point, the simple Wu Xiaofeng actually didn't expect that Xiang Tomorrow was worried about this, he was afraid that some people in the business field would not really come to support the market, and come and go in order to take care of Xiang Tomorrow's face, although this is to increase income, but it will also affect Wu Xiaofeng's mood.

Looking at tomorrow, my wife didn't think so much, but simply liked the word "tomorrow", so I agreed.

Yu Lan and Wu Xiaofeng are really busy during this time, and Coco is sent to kindergarten, so the two of them have more time to go in and out.

When all these preparations were almost done, the two of them went out to enter the book, Wu Xiaofeng picked it in the front, and Yu Lan pretended in the back, although it was quite tiring, but the two of them were very happy. Sometimes there are too many books to come in, so they just remember the names and then coordinate with the bookseller to get them shipped. Some books are only sold in bookstores, which are not profitable at all, and they have to be bought at a fair price and sold at a low price. Yu Lan still has a lot of opinions on this point.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, although these books are more expensive and not profitable, but these are to improve the grade of our bookstore, maybe you don't read much, but if not, it's a big problem."

Yu Lan frowned: "You mean, we have to have it first, whether they look at it or not." ”

"Besides, booksellers mostly look at profits, and they strongly recommend a type of book that sells considerably, but good sales are not representative, and it does not mean that they can be passed on for centuries." Wu Xiaofeng told his sister-in-law while looking at the books on the shelves.

Yu Lan still didn't quite understand: "Everyone can make money, can't it be passed on?" She put one of her bestsellers back on the shelf.

Wu Xiaofeng looked at Yu Lan and smiled: "Sister-in-law, look, um, let me make an analogy, those big bell bottoms, which were popular a few years ago, are you still seeing them now?" ”

Yu Lan suddenly realized: "I really can't see short-lived pops." It's the same with books."

"Yes, don't look at those famous books, there are also some painstaking works of ordinary writers, they may be silent for the time being, but they will stand the test of time."

"Well, I really don't understand books, I listen to you."

Wu Xiaofeng hugged her sister-in-law's shoulder: "You also made a lot of useful suggestions, after all, I am young, I can't see far, there are some things, my sister-in-law needs to be reminded." ”

Yu Lan also hugged Wu Xiaofeng's waist: "Okay, it's okay, I'll raise it if I have any questions anyway, and finally you will get the idea"

"It's best this way"

The two of them began to pick up books again. This sister-in-law's cooperation is really rare.

It took more than a month for Wu Xiaofeng's bookstore to finally open.

The opening day was still relatively deserted, because Wu Xiaofeng didn't want to be too public, and she was not very interested in promoting the bookstore. I feel that the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, and after a long time, people will naturally notice it and come over. In this way, the "Tomorrow Book House" quietly opened, and on the day of the opening, Wu Xiaofeng only invited a few relatives and friends, and set off two firecrackers to be considered officially opened.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In addition to the books on the shelves, there are also several computers where readers can read articles on CD-ROMs from the computers, and they can also read books on the Internet.

Xiang asked Wu Xiaofeng to pick two people from the kilometer to help tomorrow, but Wu Xiaofeng declined. Wu Xiaofeng had her own idea, she went to the orphanage in the city to find two students who had just graduated from vocational secondary school, the seventeen-year-old girl was named Lu Li, and the boy was named Chen Jiaming, both of whom were computer students, so that Yu Lan, who could not use computers for the time being, lightened her burden.

Wu Xiaofeng talked to them once: "Actually, we are all the same, I am an outcast, but I was adopted by my family, and you are adopted by an orphanage, the difference is only that." Speaking of which, you're luckier than me, at least you know who your biological parents are, forget it, don't talk about that. ”

"Or do you know us" Lu Li looked at Wu Xiaofeng boldly, after all, she was the boss, and Lu Li was still a little taboo.

Wu Xiaofeng smiled: "I mean we have to help each other. If you want to do anything, say it, and if you can do it, I will definitely help you. The two of them originally had a good impression of Wu Xiaofeng, and as soon as they heard her talk about her life experience, they became closer.

In the past month, the "Tomorrow Book House" has been running a good job. The book house is not big, more than 200 square meters, but the environment is elegant, there are many kinds of books, and the service is considerate, so there are really a lot of repeat customers. Coupled with a good reputation, people spread the word of mouth, which is more convincing, and the people who come and go, whether they borrow books or buy books, are not deserted. It turned out that the bookstore was quickly compared to the "Tomorrow Book House".

Wu Xiaofeng also accepted Xiang Ming's suggestion to implement a membership system, and there are many preferential treatments for members every year. After a month, they can still pay the salaries of two people, Yu Lan and Wu Xiaofeng are quite satisfied, everything is difficult at the beginning.

Xiang Tomorrow quietly made a subtitle advertisement for "Tomorrow Book House" on the TV station for two weeks, and there are more and more readers and book lovers who come from the curtain, Wu Xiaofeng has to admit that she still hasn't thought about Tomorrow thoughtfully, compared to her husband, her business acumen is still a lot worse. For a period of time, Wu Xiaofeng's heart can finally calm down, and her inspiration has increased greatly, and she has successively written more than a dozen prose essays such as "First Venture into the Business Sea", "Dream of Books", "Books Can't Be Read" without borrowing, all of which have been adopted by newspapers and periodicals. The publication of Wu Xiaofeng's works also gave a good publicity to the bookstore, which Wu Xiaofeng did not expect.

―――――――――――――――――――――――

At noon that day, Wu Xiaofeng and his sister-in-law were on duty, and a girl asked, "Are you Wu Xiaofeng?" Your "Books Can't Be Read" is so well written, just like what I thought in my heart. A middle-aged man said, "Isn't it?" Nowadays, books are getting more and more expensive, and it's really time to borrow books to read. Wu Xiaofeng smiled politely, it was not the first time he had heard such words, so he was not excited. Wu Xiaofeng still secretly told himself that he couldn't be proud, he would fall behind.

In the second month, Yu Lan told Wu Xiaofeng that the turnover was better than expected, and Wu Xiaofeng's heart could finally be completely relaxed. After a busy spring and finally taking a breath, she began to prepare for a new novella. The outline was drawn on several pieces of paper, because there were many characters in the design, and she was afraid that she would forget the relationship and name of the characters, so she would formulate a character tree first, in short, the preparation was a bit complicated.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

On this day, Wu Xiaofeng went to a store to buy something, and as soon as he went out of the door, he met Xu Zhiyang, whose car stopped and looked at her with a smile.

"Heh, the car is new enough?"

"I just changed it, and the last batch was taken back in a unified manner, saying that it would affect the appearance of the city" Xu Zhiyang's mood looked good, and he was still a little surprised when he met Wu Xiaofeng.

"You're not going" She paused, feeling that the two words were a bit abrupt, and looked for the words: "Well, take care of your passengers?" ”

Xu Zhiyang smiled: "Isn't there one in front of me?" ”

Wu Xiaofeng smiled, and without even thinking about it, he got into his car. Xu Zhiyang smiled and asked, "Where to go?" I'll send you. ”

"I'll go to the bookstore, how is Liu Min?" Less than a kilometer away, if Wu Xiaofeng hadn't met Xu Zhiyang, she didn't plan to take a taxi.

Xu Zhiyang smiled indifferently: "She's the same." I don't have the heart to get to know her, making money is a big deal now."

"What about your parents?"

"I'm in good health, and I don't go out now, what about caring for the elderly at home, you see, the burden on my shoulders is getting heavier and heavier, who made me their son, right?"

Wu Xiaofeng looked at him appreciatively: "You are becoming more and more manly, really"

"Really?" Xu Zhiyang tried his best to say it lightly, but the smile on his face and eyes still betrayed him, to be honest, he still enjoyed being praised and affirmed by Wu Xiaofeng.

"Are you all right? You and her? Wu Xiaofeng looked at Xu Zhiyang calmly.

Xu Zhiyang looked at the red light on the road ahead: "Fortunately, anyway, without you, it's the same with anyone." Besides, Liu Min is voluntary, so let's live like this. ”

Wu Xiaofeng looked at him contemplatively: "Do you have time?" Shall we go to that little shop for a cup of tea? ”

Xu Zhiyang lowered his head and thought about it: "Yes." ”

In the teahouse, it was relatively quiet at the moment, and the two sat facing each other. After taking a sip of tea, Wu Xiaofeng still spoke first: "Zhiyang, there are some things I always want to tell you, but I never have a chance." ”

"If you have anything to say, just say it." Xu Zhiyang smiled slightly.

"Zhiyang, do you remember the days we used to be together? Didn't we quarrel a lot back then? Of course, you are accommodating to me. If we had gotten married, perhaps we would have gone our separate ways. ”

"No way, I'll keep you going." Xu Zhiyang said stubbornly.

Wu Xiaofeng shook his head: "But I don't have confidence in myself." Don't interrupt me, let me finish, really, I don't regret our breakup anymore, it's just a beautiful memory. And sometimes, I am still grateful to Liu Min, if it weren't for him, how would I meet Xiang Ming? ”

Xu Zhiyang smiled slightly, he picked up the cup and drank tea, although he was thinking, his eyes never left Wu Xiaofeng.

Wu Xiaofeng looked at Xu Zhiyang's contemplative expression, and still smiled shallowly: "Zhiyang, put me in your memory, don't let me affect your current life, I want to say to you, if there is an afterlife, I still have to marry Xiang tomorrow." ”

Xu Zhiyang glanced at Wu Xiaofeng deeply, as if he wanted to see the truth of what she said.

"Liu Min also has real courage, I can't be like her, to love someone who may never love me. She's missed, but she's also paid a pretty price, hasn't she? I don't hate her at all now, Xiang Tomorrow is a man worth loving with my life, we are very happy, I hope you will too. ”

"Xiaofeng, I understand everything you mean, let time prove everything."

"That's good, I believe you will become more and more manly" Seeing that Xu Zhiyang was more calm now, Wu Xiaofeng felt a lot more relaxed: "I've wasted a lot of your time, let's go." ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

A few days later, Liu Min was bringing Xu Zhiyang footwashing water, and brought towels and slippers, when she suddenly heard Xu Zhiyang ask her: "If I tell you"

Liu Min raised his head nervously and looked at him: "What? Isn't the water suitable? She reached into the basin and tested the temperature, which she had just done.

Seeing her small action, Xu Zhiyang sighed in his heart and looked at her silently. After a while, he began to continue the topic just now: "I, maybe I won't love you until I die, what will happen to you?" ”

"Hearing this, Liu Min actually smiled reassuringly, as if she was not too worried about it.

Xu Zhiyang noticed the change in her expression, and couldn't help frowning, he still didn't understand the woman in front of him, he felt that she was unfathomable and scheming, if it weren't for the fact that she was her son's mother, it would be really difficult for him to look at her more.

"Is that all?" Liu Min asked while wiping Xu Zhiyang's feet.

"That's all for now"

"Me? As long as I can love you, as long as I can be by your side, nothing else matters. Because from the first time I saw you, I knew that you were the man I could love with my whole life. ”

Xu Zhiyang was stunned there, he could love with his whole life, he had heard this from the two women, he was really emotional, and after a while, Xu Zhiyang suddenly said: "You resign, I want to buy a bus, you sell tickets with the car." ”

This time, it was Liu Min's turn to be stunned, she didn't know what was wrong with the man in front of her, how could he suddenly tolerate her. After a long time, she replied with a good word, got up and left with the basin of water. When Liu Min poured water, she felt that her eyes were actually moist, she thought that he would never forgive her in this life, it was okay, this was a good start

Wang Likai called and said that a certain unit had organized a wind collection activity, and the opportunity was rare, and he hoped that Wu Xiaofeng could participate in it.

Wu Xiaofeng said to discuss, because she had to ask her husband's opinion when she went to other places. After making the phone call with Wang Likai, Wu Xiaofeng hurriedly called Xiang Mingming, he was in a meeting in the field, and he would not be able to go home in two days.

After listening to Wu Xiaofeng's words, Xiang Tomorrow happily supported: "Very good, you go get to know those teachers and editors, talk about the experience and feelings, listen to other people's creative experience, it's really good, you should go out for a walk"

"Then, I'll leave the day after tomorrow, and you haven't come back yet, but" Wu Xiaofeng was a little regretful.

"Don't worry, I'll go home obediently, I have Ziliang here as an overseer, I don't dare to do anything"

Wu Xiaofeng laughed: "Ha, neurotic, I don't even admit myself, okay, I'll settle accounts with you when I get home." ”

With the support of Xiang Tomorrow, Wu Xiaofeng prepared non-stop salutes, as well as printed works, which needed to be exchanged at the meeting. When choosing an article, it took her a lot of twists and turns, and she had to find her true masterpiece. After looking for a long time, she felt that she didn't have a very satisfactory work, which surprised her. She has participated in a lot of activities in this city, but it is the first time for her to participate in other places, so she is really a little excited and excited.

This event is very rich and lively, but unexpectedly Wang Likai is actually among them, of course it is better to have acquaintances, after all, it is in the field, there is an acquaintance to chat, and it is a safer thing to go in and out together. It's just that Wu Xiaofeng doesn't understand a little, why didn't he say it in advance, so maybe she would be happier.

Through this pen meeting, Wu Xiaofeng learned some about Wang Likai, and he broke up with his girlfriend who was about to get married......
