Lin Xi left the rouge shop and went to the bookstore again.

When she went, there were not many customers in the bookstore, and it was a little deserted, only a well-mannered young man on the bookshelf, holding a book and reading it attentively.

Lin Xi stood at the door, knocked on the door, and shouted, "Is the boss there?" ”

She called a few more times, and the young man in front of the bookshelf turned around and looked at the door suspiciously.

Seeing Lin Xi, the young man said unexpectedly: "I am, may I ask what the girl is doing?" Is it to buy books for the family? ”

Lin Xi knows, it seems that he is Song Xiucai, the owner of the bookstore, whose full name is Song Lingjun, and he is twenty and one this year.

When she came to inquire yesterday, the bookstore was not open, but the people in the neighborhood praised Song Xiucai.

said that his father and mother died early, and he was raised by his grandparents since he was a child, and he was very filial to his elders. But after all, the elders are old and can't afford to work hard, so Song Lingjun supported the family business when he was a child, and has run this bookstore alone until now, and he has studied hard and won the show early.

On the face of it, there are no problems.

Shen Chen also confirmed it.

Lin Xi walked in and was about to speak, but saw Song Lingjun take two steps back.

He said hurriedly, "Girl, please stay." ”

Lin Xi: "? ”

Song Lingjun arched his hand and said: "There is no one else in the store, you and I are lonely, I am afraid of criticism, and it is inconvenient to get too close." The girl wants to buy a book and says bluntly, and she will find it for the girl here. ”

Lin Xi: "......"

She looked at the distance between the two of them of seven or eight meters, the corners of her mouth twitched, and said, "I'm not here to buy books." I heard that your bookstore is renting, so I'll take a look at the shop. ”

Song Lingjun was stunned, and his expression was slightly surprised: "The girl wants to rent this shop?" This ......"

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Girl, please sit down, go down and make tea for her." ”

Lin Xi thought, Song Lingjun was probably thinking, how can she rent a shop business as a woman?

She sighed, and didn't go any further, and sat down in the nearest position.

Song Lingjun turned around and carefully put the books on the bookshelf before turning around and going to the backyard.

When he came out again after a short time, Song Lingjun had a tray in his hand.

Lin Xi smelled the fragrance and said, "It's Pu'er, good tea." ”

"The girl is very knowledgeable."

Song Lingjun walked slowly, put the tray on the table on Lin Xi's side, poured her a cup of tea, and turned around and walked to the opposite position and sat down.

The middle aisle is large enough to accommodate three or four people, and it's right at the door.

Lin Xi looked at Song Lingjun, who was sitting precariously with a serious and serious expression, and there was a rare novelty.

Because since she came here wearing a book, this is the first time she has met someone who pays so much attention to the defense of men and women.

Lin Xi also sat upright and said straight to the point: "I won't go around in circles." There's a question for you. ”

Song Lingjun bowed, "Girl, please speak." ”

Lin Xi looked around and said, "Your Excellency has run this bookstore well, why do you suddenly want to lease out the bookstore at this time?" ”

Song Lingjun said in a warm voice: "The girl should know that she is a move, and she will enter Beijing to take the exam in the spring of this year." ”

At that time, he will no longer be able to run the bookstore and leave it to outsiders, he is not at ease, and the elders in the family are tired.

After thinking about it, the only way to do it is to lease it out first.

One year's rent is enough for the elders in his family to have no worries about food and clothing during the year he rushed to take the exam.

Lin Xi nodded, similar to what Shen Chen had told her.

Lin Xi asked, "If I lease it, do you mind if I use this shop for other businesses?" Also, if it does, I won't just lease it for a year or two, but probably for a long time. ”

Song Lingjun hesitated and said, "I need to think about it in the future." ”

Lin Xi didn't say much, and got up directly and said, "Okay, I'll come back in three days and say goodbye." ”

After speaking, Lin Xi turned around to leave.

Unexpectedly, Song Lingjun suddenly said: "The girl is the one named Lin Xi from Chenyang Village?" ”

Lin Xi paused and looked at him suddenly, "How did Song Xiucai know?" ”

Song Lingjun calmly explained: "It is rare for women to do business. During this period of time, it has been rumored in the county that a woman named Lin Xi has done some business, and of course, the career of the yamen has spread widely. Girl, you are not very old, I think about it, you should be Lin Xi. ”

Lin Xi looked at him fixedly and said, "I am." ”

Song Lingjun also looked at her and said politely, "Miss Lin doesn't have to think about it. I pointed out your identity because I wanted to ask Miss Lin to say hello to Brother Shen on my behalf. ”

Lin Xi was surprised: "Do you know your father-in-law?" ”

Song Lingjun had a little more smile in his eyes, and said, "Brother Shen helped me." A few years ago, Brother Shen also asked me to find a school for him, saying that the children in the family were of school age. ”

When Lin Xi heard this, he immediately bowed: "I see, then I thank you for bothering my child." ”

Song Lingjun hurriedly got up and returned the salute: "Miss Lin doesn't have to be polite, I just repaid Brother Shen's kindness." ”

Lin Xi said: "Since they are acquaintances, I can't say anything more." Song Xiucai, you don't have to be embarrassed about this shop, you can rent it if you want to, and it's nothing if you don't rent it. I have other things to do today, so I don't want to stay for a long time, so I take my leave. ”

Song Lingjun nodded, "Miss Lin walks slowly." ”

Lin Xi smiled, turned around and went out to leave.

When she was far away, she looked back at the bookstore and scratched her head in surprise.

Why didn't Shen Chen tell her about knowing Song Lingjun?

Mom, Shen Chen's connections are too wide, why do you know everyone?

Lin Xi turned around and walked into the distance, muttering that he must interrogate Shen Chen after he goes back, how many people he still knows.

Because of this, when Lin Xi went to other shops, he was more attentive.

Sure enough, when she pretended to mention Shen Chen inadvertently, the owners of several shops really knew Shen Chen.

Especially the garment shop, directly lowered the price from 1,000 taels to 500 taels.

Lin Xi asked why.

The boss said that his daughter was victimized before, and it was only thanks to Shen Chen that he solved the case and found the murderer, and his daughter was able to look away.

Lin Xi immediately had only one sentence in his mind: "Stop, it's full of Shen Chen outside." ”

In the end, when Lin Xi wanted to go back to Chenyang Village, he happened to meet Zhao Dequan.

Zhao Dequan immediately invited her to Keyun Building, and enthusiastically said that he had found several shops for her.

Lin Xi thought, the shop Zhao Dequan is looking for should have something to do with Shen Chen, right?

She asked with interest.

Then Zhao Dequan listed five for her, two of which she had already visited, and the remaining three were all problematic, and Shen Chen explained that the problem was not small, and whoever wanted it was the kind of wronged man.

Lin Xi: "......"

Lin Xi pointed to the three families and asked, "Zhao Zhangshi, are you sure these three families can?" ”

Zhao Dequan said enthusiastically: "These three are suitable in terms of location and price." Of course, the specifics are not yet known. Miss Lin, don't worry, I've already asked my buddy to investigate. ”

Lin Xi: "......"

She knew that it was really her family's Shen Chen who was the most reliable!
