Chapter 199: Sister Swallow
However, the officer and soldier who was guarding in front of the counter turned his head and glanced at Yanzi, and said in a calm voice: "We are just acting on orders, whether your bookstore has any forbidden books in private possession, you will find out after a search!" ”
Yanzi pursed his lips, but he didn't say anything, and looked at the scholars standing in a row next to him with their heads down, and they were also frightened by such a scene and didn't dare to speak.
The officers and soldiers who searched were tossing back and forth several times, and the books in the cabinet were all pulled to the ground, and they were still searching, even one of the flower pots of Fat Bina, and they were eager to pull out the soil full of potted plants.
It's been almost half an hour, and the officers and soldiers who searched still found nothing.
Yanzi looked at it, snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "My lord, why don't you lift the floor of our Baiwenzhai to take a look, it's really not okay, dig three feet into the ground?" Let's see, do we have any forbidden books in your mouth? ”
Yanzi's voice was low and cold with a slight anger, even if it was searched, there had to be a degree, and now the whole room had been turned upside down, and there was still nothing turned out, so it was time to stop, it couldn't be under the capital, and there were still people who held official positions to abuse their power.
The officers and soldiers on the side turned their heads to look at them, and after shouting to the brothers who were still searching, they all came back.
"My lord, we Baiwenzhai has always been a regular business, the books sold are all books of the Eight Classics, and being a person is also a serious person, since it is a banned book, we will definitely not hide it privately and will not sell it, at first we said, the adults don't believe it, but now it's credible, and I bother to ask the adults to check what kind of heart the person who reported it behind it, and our Baiwenzhai's century-old signboard is not obtained in vain!" Swallow said slowly.
The scholar on the side also straightened his waist and looked at the officers and soldiers standing at the door.
The officers and soldiers who had not found anything pounced, looked up at the swallows standing in front of the counter, and after snorting coldly, they all turned around and strode away.
The people surrounding the door also gave way and let them pass, but the guests who came out just now did not come in, after all, this book store has become like this, it is messy inside, and there is this fork, no one wants to enter Baiwenzhai now, or wait for them to pack up, let's go in.
After watching everyone leave, Yanzi sighed, turned to the scholar who was about to be busy and asked, "Have these officers and soldiers been here before?" ”
One of the older scholars shook his head, and said to Yanzi very frustratedly: "No, it is the first time that Baiwenzhai has encountered such a thing, and this is wronged, Baiwenzhai has never touched forbidden books, even if someone comes to ask, Mr. Xiao has sent them away fiercely before, how can anyone report that our Baiwenzhai is secretly collecting and selling banned books!" ”
As soon as this scholar spoke, the other little scholars also echoed: "That's it, how can you provoke such a person!" ”
Hearing this, Yanzi was also more sure that there must be something behind this, otherwise, how could Baiwenzhai, who has been working in the capital for decades in the book shop, known as one of the four major book shops in the capital, suddenly be reported, and it happened to be the time when the emperor strictly ordered a thorough investigation of this kind of thing.
Yanzi took a deep breath, pondering this matter in his heart, he was new to the capital, he didn't know anyone, and he was not familiar with the situation here, so the person who reported it should be coming to Baiwenzhai, when he heard the shopkeeper Zhang chattering about nothing, he also heard that the boss of Baiwenzhai, Xiao Binxiao, is an indisputable person, and he can sell as much as he can in a day, but he can sell a lot, and he also relies on Baiwenzhai's reputation for decades and the way of doing things for this old man Xiao. The people of the capital like Baiwenzhai and are willing to come and buy it.
And when Yanzi looked at the account book just now, he also saw that the price of Baiwenzhai's books was not high, which can be said to be very close to the people, but it was not necessarily the case with a few bookstores around here.
Slightly, Yanzi didn't think about it, and simply joined the army of scholars, and packed up the books that were overturned to the ground.
"Miss Zhao, our boss said that this fable album was Miss Zhao's idea, and the first book was also painted by you, is it true?" A scholar next to the swallow asked curiously.
Yanzi looked up at the scholar slightly, it seemed that he was not very old, that is, twelve or thirteen years old, Yanzi was a little curious about how he came out to work as a scholar in the book store at a young age.
But take a closer look at the scholars in Baiwenzhai, most of them are thirteen or fourteen years old.
"Is Miss Zhao real? My favorite book in the book shop is the allegorical picture book, but it's much more interesting than the miscellaneous ones! A scholar next to him also asked with a smile.
For a while, all the scholars in Baiwenzhai looked at the swallow with interest, and a pair of dark and shiny eyes fell on them, which was really uncomfortable.
"Well, but this allegorical album is drawn by all the painters in the library pavilion, although I said that the ideas were made by me, but those ideas can be turned into a picture album, and it is also the result of the efforts of Baiwenzhai and many painters!" Swallow said lightly.
As soon as Yanzi's voice fell, the little scholar who spoke just now said with a smile: "I'll just say it, this Miss Zhao in our boss's mouth is a powerful person, otherwise, as soon as Miss Zhao comes today, our boss won't ignore everything and slip away!" ”
Slipping away, this word, Yan Zi frowned, I don't know what kind of expression Old Man Xiao had when he knew what kind of expression his scholar would have after he said this, and whether his beard would be curled up angrily.
"Miss Zhao, you will be a member of our Baiwenzhai in the future, our boss said, we will listen to what you say in the future, and you have the most electric ideas, you will definitely be able to take our Baiwenzhai to make a fortune and become the first book in the capital!" A slightly older scholar said with a grin.
This is the first book in the capital, and the pressure is huge.
After a while, Yanzi said lightly: "Don't call me Miss Zhao in the future, I'm not a few years older than you, just call me Yanzi in the future!"
The scholars looked left and right, and shouted to Yanzi in unison, "Okay, Sister Yanzi!"
This sister called, Yanzi was itchy and embarrassed in her heart, how could she let them all call herself sister.
But that's it, it's all a title, in the future, I really have to do a good job in this Baiwenzhai, after all, since I have chosen, I have to go down steadily, if I want to gain a foothold in this capital, I have to rely on a pair of hands, a skill.
When all the books were packed up and put back on the shelves, someone really happened to come in with their feet up.
