Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Beginning of Fortune
If Pippi, the housekeeper of the machine, knew what Charlene thought of his young master in his heart, he really didn't know whether to be happy or sad. After all, in his decision, the priest wanted not Charlene's gratitude.
Grateful or something......
It seems that I am still relatively grateful after that......
Don't look like their young master is too cheap to have wood?!
It's just that Charlene shook her head and threw more thoughts in her mind to the back of her mind.
Thoughts and thoughts that shouldn't be there and that would affect her decision should be nibbled in the bud.
For people like Priest and Yu Yang, a small role like her is just an interesting play/thing, it's a pity, but it won't be more.
After all, although she knew that the original owner's ability genes were excellent, she also knew that Yu Yang had a good impression of her, and she was quite satisfied with her well-behaved and harmless fiancée, and even as a proud and indifferent person, Yu Yang had given her a lot of exceptions and care.
Not to mention the "passer-by" of the priest, who is absolutely forced to be the first in the world to extend a warm hand to her in the future version of the "living Lei Feng".
If it is a girl born and raised in this world, after experiencing such a sudden change and such a family, she will definitely put full trust and dependence on Yu Yang and Priest Bu, and even ...... A girl's heart.
But for her, a simple, peaceful and free life is related to her whole life. It is also the greatest hope and obsession in her heart.
People are selfish, and she is not stupid enough to be so stupid that the other party is a little bit of her who is huge to her, but the other party is just a good effort, so she leaves her happy life behind and follows the other party to the point of jumping into the oil pot.
She really couldn't find such a noble self.
The kind of "the grace of dripping water, the spring reciprocates", whoever loves it has it.
The image of "delicate and pretentious, easy to push down, pure and harmless little white flower", whoever likes to play it, let's play it.
She......
I will not accompany you!
Seeing that the timing and place were almost up, Charlene thought fiercely in her heart.
Then, she enters a grocery store that looks like a little show.
This grocery store ...... Should it be called a grocery store?
It's just that even if it's a grocery store, no matter how many things there are, it won't even have a road that can make people guò, right?
No wonder Xu Shuoyang would tell her, "The owner of the store has a hoarding habit, so there are a lot of items in the store." "Ask her to be mentally prepared in advance!
This is not much at all, this is already so much that it is about to overflow!
Seeing all kinds of messy things stuffed everywhere in the storefront, but in no order, Charlene frowned, thinking a little weakly.
"Yo, welcome, I wonder what you're going to buy, Miss?" As if he saw a customer coming to the door, the owner of the shop pù didn't know where to get out of a corner full of items.
The owner of the grocery store was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a mustache, not tall, but very thin. With that face that looks a little comic no matter how you look at it, it has a bit of the image of a villain.
It's just that......
Seeing the other party's two mustaches, as well as the gold-wire glasses that didn't match how they looked, Charlene couldn't help but laugh out loud.
I don't know why, the other party's image inexplicably reminded her of the image of the rat spirit in a certain cartoon she had seen in her previous life. Add to that the fact that this room is full of all sorts of things......
Seeing Charlene laughing, the other party's eyes rolled around, I don't know if I was laughed at too much, so I naturally understood what Charlene was laughing at.
But the other party was not annoyed, but reached out and twisted his two mustaches, "Hey, hey, hey", "Let Miss you see you laugh, there are many things in the shop, a little messy, Miss, don't be surprised!" ”
Charlene knew that her smile was inappropriate, so she smiled a little embarrassedly, and then shook her head apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was rude." I don't know if you have blue grass in your store? ”
"Blue weed?" Hearing Charlene's words, a look of surprise flashed across the shopkeeper's face.
"I heard from a friend that you can buy blue alfalfa grass here......" Charlene smiled and bent her eyebrows, looking at the other party with an innocent and expectant expression.
"Uh...... Scold...... Hehe......" The shopkeeper smiled as if he was a little embarrassed, but then he calmed down, and his expression was a little inquiring. "I wonder who Miss's friend is? The blue grass I have here is not something that ordinary people can know......"
Charlene blinked and looked at each other innocently, "Do you want me to say it here?" ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, he reluctantly glanced at the corridor where people were coming and going, and could only lead people to the inside of the store.
Following the shopkeeper who is not tall, but unusually flexible, turned left and right, "over the mountains and mountains", Charlene didn't walk too much (Charlene fell angrily: How many more roads do you want to walk!). It's just a small shop, do you have to go around the Himalayas to count?! I saw a small hidden door with no sense of zài.
Following the shopkeeper to the small door, Charlene thought she would see an even more crowded warehouse.
In fact, it is very neatly organized.
The room was not big, and it was even surprisingly small. But after experiencing the kind of items everywhere outside, even when she was walking with the shopkeeper, Charlene had encountered the environment of "three inches above her head" more than once, and suddenly entered here, and there was an inexplicable feeling of "emptiness".
I have to say, this is really ......
Happiness is a comparative level!
In the room, there is a single bed, two bedside tables and a wardrobe in the corner, a set of tables and chairs and some simple office supplies on the other side, and a large bookshelf on the right side of the table and chairs.
It was clear that this was supposed to be the resting place of the unknown shopkeeper.
And if there is one highlight in this room, it is the large bookshelf.
You must know that in the future world, the precious chengdù of paper books will already be equal to precious metals, and the paper books that have been handed down from the era before the Great Nirvana, according to their content and well-preserved, some of them have even reached the point of having no price.
And the books here are ...... for this somewhat obscene-looking shopkeeper
At a glance, there were not only most of them in simplified Chinese that Charlene was quite familiar with, but there was even a "Chinese Dictionary", although it looked unusually shabby, but in this era, it was absolutely valuable.
In Charlene's estimation, the value is even more than the Kangxi dictionary of her time...... And it's still the kind of antique that is somewhere, whatever, whatever, and whatever, and it's not published in bulk by later publishers.
Of course, these are not the real reasons that attracted Charlene's attention as an ancient human. What really attracted Charlene was ......
Seeing how precious it was to see the other party treasure this kind of thing that seemed to her to be so common and worthless at all, even in a wooden box alone, she knew how precious it was.
You know, most of the plants in this world are alien plants, and how difficult it is to cut down a foreign plant that is large enough to make a bookshelf, let alone use the precious wood of the best material in it.
Being able to hold books on an all-wooden shelf is a luxury in itself, let alone a book that can be placed separately in an even more extravagant and ornate box.
It's just that......
twitching the corners of her mouth fiercely, Charlene didn't want to say at all, out of the resentment of books before the end of the world, in the early days of the end of the world, she had emptied more than one large library.
At that time, because of her somewhat paranoid obsession and madness, she even suffered from the dissatisfaction of her two owners.
Although, those two people did not "save" her for a long time, and she naturally changed hands as the only "living mouth" after her owner was "freed" from the end times.
Therefore, no one knew about her emptying the library, and after a long time, she forgot about it.
After all, after she moved out, she would be relieved of her hatred, and naturally she would have long since lost the pre-apocalyptic "I can't wait to read all over the world...... The novel "suffers from the mood and time of not having so much money to buy, so he forgets all those things."
It's too late to save her life, who would be in the mood to study those things, not to mention that although she was trying to be happy for a while, she didn't forget the books she moved back, as well as a large number of textbooks and teaching aids.
Teaching aids or something, teaching materials or something, Charlene said that she has graduated for many years!!
Therefore, it was the first time she saw so many paper books today, and she suddenly remembered.
Or......
She should have looked for an opportunity to turn over the corners of the pile that she had thrown into the corner where she had thrown the heap of things that were too large and obstructive to be used for her to ravage or disguise like a teddy bear, and which could only be placed there as a decoration?
Presumably, it was at the bottom of that mess that she still hadn't had the time or interest to sort out...... Right?
Seeing Charlene staring blankly at the paper books on her bookshelf, the mustachioed shopkeeper curled the corners of his lips and showed a smug smile.
Don't look at his shop as inconspicuous and don't look like he has much business, that's because he is too lazy to entertain those laymen.
Only those who really know his doorway here are qualified to see the treasure of his bookshelf!
Only those who really know the baby are qualified to negotiate a deal with him!
Obviously, Charlene's reaction, at least by mistake, passed the first level of the other party.
"Hehe, it seems that Miss is very interested in these books below?"
The voice of the mustachioed shopkeeper pulled Charlene's thoughts back from running away.
With a somewhat shy smile, Charlene nodded slightly and shook her head again.
She was indeed interested in these books, but exactly, she was not interested in them, but in how much they were worth?! RS
