Chapter 52: How about a library?
The store manager deliberately sold the guanzi, which made the old man and He Yun anxious, and the old man hurriedly asked, "Lao Chen! Don't grind and chirp, say quickly, unless what? ”
"Unless you have a special approval from the higher authorities as a guarantee, or for some special reason, I will help you do it!"
"This ...... Lao Chen, is there really no other way? When the old man heard the store manager's words, he was stunned for a moment, but he shook his head slightly and continued.
"Alas! Lao Lin, it's not that I won't help you, it's really no other way! This is already a special case within a special case! The manager shook his head and replied affirmatively.
At this time, He Yun fell into a deep thought, he really didn't expect that it would be so difficult to get a library card.
In fact, how did he know that the current Xinhua Bookstore is not an ordinary unit, not to mention its own business, and the leaders above also attach great importance to it, so it is normal to be stricter.
"Store manager! Do you have any restrictions on buying books? I'm going to buy some books and go back! After a while, He Yun suddenly asked the store manager.
"Buying books? Not really, as long as you have a letter of introduction and enough money, it's okay to buy as much as you want, but are you sure you want to buy books? The store manager looked at He Yun and asked.
"Sure! Store manager, do you think this is okay, I'll buy the book first, and then I'll get a special note, and finally I'll get this library card, do you think it's okay? He Yun nodded and continued.
"This is okay, as long as you bring a special approval note, I can consider helping you do it, in fact, to be honest, a young writer like you, I am very happy to help you do it, but this rule is the rule, I can't help it!" The store manager replied with a wry smile.
"Understood! Understand! The store manager, let's just say it! Lin Lao and I went to choose a book first! He Yun understood the store manager's difficulties very well, so he didn't force it.
After he turned around and pulled Lin Lao out of the store manager's office, he came to the exhibition hall of Xinhua Bookstore.
"Boy, do you really want to buy books? Otherwise, I'll give you my own library card first, and you ...... later."
"Stop, Lin Lao, this matter is over, if I take your library card to borrow books, isn't this forcing you to make mistakes? Besides, isn't there a silver lining to this? Rest assured! Lin Lao, I will arrange it properly! ”
He Yun waved his hand again and again and said.
Then, he looked around, first ran to the bookshelf showing agricultural science and technology, and selected more than ten agricultural guidance books such as "Postpartum Care of Sows" and "Rice Planting Pests and Diseases", and then ran to the literary bookshelf, took a collection of Lu Xun's works, and then came to the magazine bookshelf, randomly selected two, and then came to the front desk with the books.
At this time, there are many people borrowing books at the front desk, but not many people buying books.
Because the two were separated, He Yun glanced at the borrowing area with a long queue and walked straight to the counter where he bought and paid for the book.
It's just that he didn't expect that when everyone watched him walk to the book counter with a large pile of books, their faces were full of disbelief, and they all raised doubts or envy.
"Tsk......t! What about young people who buy books? How much does it cost to buy so many books? ”
"Hehe......! Maybe people are just pretending, so many books, at least forty or fifty yuan, can he afford it? ”
"Maybe someone can buy it for the unit? It's not for nothing, let's not talk about it, hurry up and borrow the book and go back, it's too cold. ”
"Yes, yes, yes...... Hurry back after borrowing the book! It's all cold! ”
…………
In the book buying area, the old man listened to everyone's discussions, but said to He Yun: "Boy, don't pay attention to them, they just talk, but ...... What books are you buying? These agricultural and planting books are fine, they should be what you Township Chief Li wanted, right? But these two magazines, as well as this "Morning Flowers and Sunset", isn't this a collection of essays by Mr. Lu Xun? ”
"It's okay! Lin Lao, I have money, you see I have already brought enough money! He Yun smiled and immediately took out more than a dozen sheets of great unity.
"Then there's no need to waste money so much, aren't these two magazines cheap? "Storytelling"? Hey...... Is this Reader's Digest? Both magazines cost about two dollars! The old man shook his head slightly, glanced at the two magazines He Yun held in his hand, and hurriedly persuaded him.
"Lin Lao, it's okay, I don't plan to read this book by myself, I think so, our Sanshui Township Middle School is a rural school, not to mention the library, there is not even a simple library, I am going to pay for some books to go back, plus the newspapers and old magazines sent by the joint school every month, and I borrow it with a library card in the future, it should be enough to run a simple library!"
He Yun's words made the old man silent, he never expected that He Yun bought books for the students of the school.
A little ashamed, he hurriedly said, "Boy! You're really good! It's true! He is a very good young man! A really good teacher, even an old man is ashamed of himself! ”
"Lin Lao, don't say that! Your generation is a role model for our young people, without your hard work in those years, how can we have a better tomorrow for our young people! ”
"Ahem...... You kid! Don't brag about us old men, we old guys still have self-knowledge of a few pounds and taels, and the future is destined to belong to you young people! ”
With a sigh, the old man walked in front of He Yun, he came to the counter, and said a few words to the staff in front of the book counter, and He Yun quickly paid for these books.
Later, the old man found a cardboard box and a rope, and asked He Yun to put all the books into the cardboard box, he skillfully packed the cardboard box, and handed it to He Yun: "Take it!" It might be easier to pick up some of them! ”
"Lin Lao, this ......"
"Take it! This cardboard box was given by the bookstore, no money! ”
"Uh...... Lin Lao, I didn't mean that, I just wanted to say, can I live with you first in this box? He Yun said with some tears and laughter.
"Absolutely! How? What else do you have to do? The old man asked.
"Old Lin, have you forgotten, didn't I just say that I was going to do something about the special approval? Naturally, I have to do it today, and it's not easy to come to the city, so I have to take this opportunity to get this thing done, so as not to make another trip! ”
"That's true, but have you figured out who to get this special approval? Just now, Lao Chen said that he wanted to find a higher-level competent department, is it difficult to find such a person? ”
The old man nodded, couldn't help but look at He Yun again, and asked.
