Tan Zong felt that Lin Yuzhi was teasing him, so he categorically refused, and asked Lin Yuzhi to do it again. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Cai Mao thinks that this kind of expression is very straightforward, very bold, and more direct to the heart, and it does express the idea, which is very novel, and I like it very much.
Cai Mao chose a collection of miscellaneous poems, Lin Yuzhi chose a book of Fengdi Lizhi, the three of them paid the money and were about to leave, not wanting to be stopped by one person, "Tan Fifth Young Master An, two young masters An!" How did the Fifth Young Master come here today, but what else is needed, even if he picks it, the small arranger will send it to the Fifth Young Master."
Lin Yuzhi and Cai Mao both looked at Tan Zong, but now Tan Zong is indeed blind, because he doesn't know this person in his impression, and it is a little embarrassing to see others so polite, but he doesn't know who it is.
This person didn't know himself when he looked at Tan Zong, and hurriedly explained, "The little Sun Qi is the housekeeper of the sixth brother of the aunt and grandmother of the Hou Mansion in Xining, and he is in charge of several shops of the sixth master of our family. This strange bookstore was set up by our sixth master, and the fifth young master will take a look at what are the shortcomings? ”
In this era of "Shinong Industry and Commerce", the scholars actually looked down on merchants, especially young scholars, who had read a few books, and felt that they had figured out the words of the sages, and followed the path drawn by the imperial court, that is, the ruling class, and were especially reluctant to be with merchants.
Tan Zong is a person who prefers this idea, although he is related to the Hou Mansion, but this manager is a businessman's philistine face, he doesn't want to say more, only said, "The three of us have purchased what we need, and there is nothing missing, we still have something to do, so we will leave", which is actually a bit blunt.
Hearing Tan Zong's words, Sun Qi, as an old steward, knew the thoughts of Fifth Young Master Tan, and didn't say much else, only said, "Send Fifth Young Master, two sons!" ”
In Lin Yuzhi's view, Sun Qi is very sleek and sophisticated, this kind of person is not good, depending on who he is, how to look at it, how to use it, the way of employing people is never a simple right and wrong. Lin Yuzhi, who was walking at the end, asked, "Steward Sun, in addition to selling books, your bookstore also publishes books?" ”
Sun Qi didn't know what this boy meant, but he still replied truthfully, "Back to this young master, this bookstore has a special printing workshop, and we have a lot of books here that are printed by ourselves, and the books are printed on excellent paper and printed clearly.
Lin Yuzhi got the reply, walked out without stopping, and followed Cai Mao and Tan Zong.
The three of them stopped and went, bought the necessary stationery supplies, and got into the carriage to turn around.
got into the carriage and sat down, Cai Mao picked up the dim sum on the small table and handed it to Lin Yuzhi, "Let's eat two bites of dim sum first, I've been busy for half a day", Lin Yuzhi was indeed a little hungry, took a piece to eat, and also took a piece "Zhong Ming also eats a piece, he is also hungry, this pastry feels more and more delicious!" Cai Mao didn't shirk it, and ate slowly.
Lin Yuzhi handed a piece to Tan Zong, only to see Tan Zong holding a newly obtained exquisite jade hosta in a daze, sighed, one flower and one world, one leaf and one pursuit. A song and a sigh, a lifetime for one person. Ask what is the situation in the world, and the straight teach people to live and die! Lin Yuzhi said: "Senior Brother Tan, let's use a piece of dim sum!" ”
