Chapter 72: Book House

"The school uniform is more suitable for PE classes now than we used to do it back then."

"yes, it's a lot like when I was in junior high school, but I still prefer what we had back then."

Chen Xiaodi nodded lightly in agreement, although it didn't matter what kind of style she didn't have in physical education class.

"Me too."

After a short greeting, Mr. Zhang gave the two of them some English papers and asked them to help register their scores, and he went downstairs to get the copied documents.

When he returned to the office, the papers of the two classes had already been registered, and after chatting with the two girls for half a class, Mr. Zhang asked them to go to the library to play for a while, and then take them to eat together after school.

Originally, both of them refused, but Teacher Zhang said that they hadn't seen each other for a long time and chatted with each other, so they agreed, so it can be said that no matter how many sessions have passed, as long as it is in Mr. Zhang's grade, the relationship between students and him is more like friends than teachers and students, and there will never be that tense atmosphere when talking with him.

The two girls came all the way downstairs, the book house was opened in the former book reading room, very spacious, one side by the door is full of floor-to-ceiling windows, the left side of the door is a workbench selling milk tea, the bookshelf is placed along the wall, the sofa and the table and chair with flower arrangements are also separated by the bookshelves, the light is very gentle, everything here is very comfortable.

Turning around and taking pictures, the two girls ordered milk tea and sat down at the table by the window, outside the window is the small garden next to the teaching building, Chen Xiaodi only walked through it twice until graduation, the two banyan trees there are very tall, the shade of the trees shades all the sun, although it is very cool, but it is a little depressing.

At this time, class has not ended, and this is the corner of the campus, so there is hardly anyone to see, except for Chen Xiaodi, there are no other guests in the book house for the time being, and the two girls began to study this book house carefully after resting for a while, in general, it is Chen Xiaodi's favorite style.

"I would like to open a book like this in the future, about the same size, preferably with a small platform outside, where you can plant a small flower bed and put two round tables, in this case, it will be perfect."

"Sounds very good, and it suits you very well, don't forget to notify me when it opens, and I will take care of your business with my friends in the future."

"That's a good dare, I'll give you the biggest discount when the time comes."

"That's it."

"Hmm."

"But if it's just a bookstore, business won't be easy, right?"

"It should be, but I really want to have a bookstore of my own, and when the time comes, I can sell some milk tea and desserts or something, which should attract a lot of girls like us."

"That's right."

"When I can have a lot of readers one day, my bookstore won't go out of business......

"At that time, it was not a question of whether to go out of business, but whether to expand the store."

"Then I'll borrow your auspicious words first, and then please be my first guests."

"Okay, I'll go."

The bell rang after class, the small bookstore and the supermarket next door were lively at the same time, and the two girls sighed for a while, why didn't they encounter such a good thing when they went to school, otherwise they wouldn't have to be so boring in the time before the evening self-study, although those hours after the second year of high school were used to do homework, but if there was such a place to relax occasionally, the dark senior year life could be more or less bright.

Looking back at the students waiting in front of the workbench, Chen Xiaodi suddenly remembered herself in high school, and she only stayed in the classroom after class, and almost only walked out of the classroom door when Bai Ye came to look for her. Although she is often regarded as a child who is still in high school by her parents' friends when she goes out, the reality is that she has to face the future choices and can no longer find the scruples of that time.

At this time, a girl left with a freshly baked egg tart, Chen Xiaodi suddenly remembered that Xiran is also a food expert, and the small snacks she makes herself often send in the circle of friends, although she has never tasted it, but it looks very good, and the taste will not be bad.

"By the way, Xiran, do you want to consider my bookstore in the future? You see, in the future, Xiaoli is the one you saw when she came to my house on National Day, taking care of the flower beds and flower arrangements in the store, Belle is responsible for all kinds of fruit tea, Xiaoluzi is an accountant, Master Tang and my brother and Bai Ye can contract manual work to move books, and I will send a dessert chef after thinking about it, so do you have any ideas to run this small bookstore with us? ”

"Of course it's good, I'm worried about not being able to find a job, although the dim sum I make is not as good as a professional pastry chef, but I personally feel good, and the reviews of friends who have eaten are also very good, and I plan to take the baker certificate."

"Perfect, I suddenly feel that the future of our bookstore is bright."

"Then you have to work hard to write a book, and the start-up capital of our bookstore will depend on you."

"I'll try!"

Soon it was time for school to end, and the two received a message from Teacher Zhang, asking them to wait for him at the classroom check-in place next to the stone monument, and the three of them met a few minutes later and walked to the back door of the school together. At the back entrance is the parking lot, which is also the sanitary area that Chen Xiaodi's class was responsible for, and from here is the river that runs through the city, and there are many restaurants by the river.

After walking for about seven or eight minutes, the three of them came to a grilled fish restaurant in Bandao, where Mr. Zhang seemed to come often and was already familiar with the boss. The grilled fish was a little slow, and the three of them chatted while waiting, mostly about the current situation of their students, and sometimes they listened to Teacher Zhang talk about the school over the years.

"Anyway, I've always wondered, how could the school agree to the bookstore on campus?"

"yes, when we went to school, we always felt that the school wanted to close the supermarket."

"Originally, there was a reading room, and there were a lot of teaching and auxiliary materials in this bookstore, probably because it was convenient for students to read and buy books, but now it seems that those desserts and milk tea are more popular, and students will run here as soon as they get out of class, so I think it is better not to open it."

Teacher Zhang said, his face full of disgust.

"There are not too many people who buy paper books now, besides, the teaching and auxiliary materials issued by the school are not finished, and there are even fewer students who will take the initiative to buy them.

Chen Xiaodi nodded, took a sip of the tea in front of him, this tea has the aroma of glutinous rice, which is very refreshing.

"I prefer to read paper books, but I only buy them if I'm interested, and I've bought two sets of collector's edition best-selling novels before, but purely for the sake of collecting, I haven't opened them at all."
