Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Bookstore
The Haoyue bookstore in Jinxin's mouth is opened in the most lively market, their door is brighter than the restaurant opposite, and there are two small trees hanging copper coins at the door, which does not look like a bookstore at all, more like a pawnshop full of wealth.
"Come in, Boss Zhuang has been waiting for you for a long time." The man standing at the door recognized Jinxin, and in a blink of an eye, he saw two unfamiliar faces beside her, and looked at her with a slanted gaze, "Who is this?" ”
"My friend, with me." Jinxin explained.
"Hurry inside." The man waved his hands impatiently.
Jin Xin took Fan Xing and Shaoguang to a room on the second floor of the bookstore.
A pot-bellied man with a shiny face came into view. His eyes are like small beans, with wide eye space, and he doesn't look very smart. The nostrils are upturned, and the lower lip is thick, and there is no lip line at all.
"Here, where's Jumbo?" He leaned back on the wooden chair, the fat on both sides against the handle, and felt that the wooden chair would be broken if he felt fatter a little more.
"I didn't get it, but I can take out 100,000 gold." Jin Xin whispered.
"What?" The small-eyed man thought he had misheard, "One hundred thousand gold? Hahahahaha! Do you want to have 100,000 gold and still have to sign paperwork with me? ”
"She doesn't have us, we will pay for her!" Shaoguang said on the side.
"Yo! It's only been a day, and it's been a big deal? The small-eyed man stared at Jinxin with squinting eyes, "I didn't expect your kung fu in this bed to be very powerful?" ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a "snap" and a slap was thrown in his face.
Bright red blood flowed from the nostrils of the small-eyed man.
Fan Xing looked at his pig face in disgust, and turned his wrist: "If you dare to say this kind of thing again, I will pull out your tongue!" ”
The small-eyed man trembled with anger, he stood up suddenly, and the wooden chair fell to the ground: "Presumptuous!" How dare you hit me! Mean woman! ”
He just wanted to raise his hand to fight back, Shaoguang grabbed his wrist, and with a little force, he screamed in pain: "What are you shouting!" Clean your mouth! ”
Shaoguang continued to exert his strength, and the small-eyed man's tears of pain flowed, and his legs were weak and he knelt directly on the ground.
"We originally wanted to settle the matter with 100,000 gold, pay the money in one hand and hand in the paperwork in the other. But I've changed my mind, if you don't want to be speechless tomorrow, it's best to take out the paperwork of the brocade core drawing immediately! Fan Xing's indifferent voice made the small-eyed man shudder.
"Good...... Good...... I give ......"
Shaoguang let go of him, and he staggered to the bookcase next to the door.
Suddenly! He turned around, pushed open the wooden door and shouted, "Someone! Kill! ”
The thugs in the bookstore immediately copied the sticks from various positions and flew to the second floor, where the people at the door beckoned the guests to go out, and hung up the wooden signs that were not welcoming guests for the time being, and closed the wooden door tightly.
"Alas, some people just don't know how to regret it if they don't take some lessons." Shaoguang shook his head helplessly.
"In that case, we're going to smash this disgusting den!" Fan Xing took a step forward, but he had some heroine style.
This time, she only built a barrier around Jinxin to ensure that she would not be injured by mistake.
Fan Xing conjured up the Phantom Ling Sword: "It's time to try swordsmanship." ”
"The young master also moved his muscles and bones and punched."
On the street, there was an endless stream of pedestrians, and there were bursts of screams from the Haoyue Bookstore, attracting everyone to stop and watch.
But because I couldn't see what was going on inside, I had to disperse.
"The railing of your bookstore is too sturdy." Shaoguang stood in the hallway and looked down.
Some of the thugs were lying on the stairs, some were lying on the ground in pain, and the broken railing was still pressed against their backs.
The rest of the room hid in the corner with their heads in their hands, for fear of harming themselves.
Fan Xing tied the small-eyed man to a wooden chair, his two eyes were already bruised, one of his eyelids was swollen like a sandbag, two front teeth had fallen out, and there were still blood stains on the corners of his mouth.
"Tell me, where is the paperwork of Jinxin?" Fan Xing asked him.
The man's leaky mouth trembled and closed: "You...... Behind you is a brocade box at the bottom of the wooden cabinet. ”
Fan Xing turned around to look for it, and sure enough, it was inside.
She handed it to Jinxin: "You're free!" ”
Jin Xin looked at her gratefully, then took the paper and tore it to shreds.
"I advise you, if you dare to trouble Jinxin in the future, I will burn down your bookstore!" Fan Xing threatened.
"Little ones don't dare! The little ones don't dare! ”
The matter was done, and the three of them stepped out of the bookstore easily.
"Jinxin, you can take this fairy bag." Fan Xing gave her all the money from the gambling house, "My 1,200 gold has been taken out, enough for us to squander in the world these days, you can take this silver to open your own bookstore, hire a few more people to protect yourself, and write a book with peace of mind!" ”
"That's too much!" Jin Xin excused, "I'm content with you helping me get back the paperwork, I can't ask for this silver!" ”
"Just take it!" Shaoguang took her hand and slapped the fairy bag in her palm, "We'll go back in two days, we won't need this money." ”
"yes, you don't have to feel burdened!" Fan Xing comforted.
Jinxin was moved to tears, and she clenched the money bag: "I remember that you said that your name is Fan Xing, so what do you call this son?" ”
"My name is Shaoguang!"
"You two say we knew each other before, but I don't remember, what the hell is going on?" Jinxin asked.
Fan Xing was about to open his mouth, but suddenly changed his mind.
Jinxin's days in Tangyu Hall were not pleasant, and it may not be a good thing to remember.
"It's okay if you don't remember, don't mention the past! We can get acquainted again! Van Xing stretched out his hand.
Jin Xin nodded and shook it: "Nice to meet you!" ”
At this time, Cangyuan Baiyu also found his apprentice.
He saw three figures on the street and called, "Mortal stars." ”
"Master!" Fan Xing beckoned, and then said to Jinxin, "We still have an important matter to deal with in the past two days, where is your home now?" We'll look for you when we're free another day! ”
"I currently live in the West Lane of the Old Street, but with this money, I plan to buy a land on this street to sell a book, and if you come at that time, as long as you see the sign of 'Master of the Heart', you will naturally find me." Jin Xin said.
"Good!"
The three of them said a brief goodbye, and Fan Xing looked at the back of Jinxin in the distance, and was reluctant.
Back at the inn, Fan Xing took out the Celestial Time Mirror and told Master everything that had happened.
She held her cheeks with joy: "I really didn't expect that this time I not only met Jinxin, but also got the Tianshi Mirror!" That's nice! ”
"You and Shaoguang have done a lot of work." Cangyuan Baiyu praised, "You take the magic weapon first, and then go to meet Du Ziqing tomorrow as a teacher." ”
"Oh yes! Is the 'ghost qin' a flowing sound piano? Fan Xing asked.
"Benjun only saw part of it, and he couldn't be sure, he asked me to go boating tomorrow and said to bring the piano over."
"Who made an appointment with the gods?" Shaoguang gossiped, "What's the situation, how can I hear it in the clouds!" ”
Fan Xing explained, Shaoguang suddenly realized, he was not afraid of death, and said: "Divine Monarch!" That kid definitely has a crush on you! ”
