It is true that as Guo Ming said, Cai Xiaohong has completely cut off any possibility of falling in love with Guo Ming or staying together, what about me? Do I have the courage?

Guo Ming said that it was time for him to go home, and before leaving, he told me that he had already helped me contact the people of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and asked me to quickly find a storefront, open a bookstore and a book bar, if I really want to do it, I have to do it well, and he will always support me. After speaking, he also gave me a business card of his friend in the Liaison Department of the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles, whose name was Qian Haiping, and asked me to call Mr. Qian Haiping of the Liaison Department when I was free, and he would talk to me in detail about cooperation.

I am very grateful to him, but I have never understood why Guo Ming would go out of his way to help me.

Guo Ming seemed to understand what I was thinking, and said, "I see you as if I saw the past me, perhaps, you will be more happy and happy than me." ”

It was said so sadly that I was deeply moved. I inexplicably thought that this era, this early nineties, was really like the sentence that Du Qing wrote in the book he sent us.

"It's a naïve time."

If I were to write this, I would add a vulgar sentence to make it more complete.

"It's a naïve time, and there's hardly a single bad guy."

I asked Guo Ming, do you need to find students to write those assembly line novels?

Guo Ming waved his hand and said don't mention it, he has washed his hands now, he wants to stay in the publishing house honestly and write some novels quietly.

As he said this, his face showed boredom and exhaustion that could not be concealed.

After saying goodbye to Guo Ming, I returned to the bookstore, Li Yun and Cai Xiaohong were already closing the stall, and the two girls looked very dull, and when they saw me coming back, they only smiled symbolically, but did not speak, and continued to do the work at hand.

I saw that they were all in a heavy mood, and I didn't know what Cai Xiaohong said to Li Yun, so I said that I would invite them to eat Xiaoye.

Cai Xiaohong immediately said that she was not feeling well, and her stomach and intestines had some inflammation recently, so she couldn't eat before going to bed.

She said goodbye to us, and although she was dressed sensually and beautifully, she was aloof and depressed.

Li Yun said: "I'm also a little uncomfortable, so I won't eat with you today, okay?"

I said, "It's okay, let's go back to the dormitory, and we don't have to rush back to that place tonight." ”

Break up unhappily, maybe these four words can describe the mood at the moment. What should end is over, and what should be started begins, it seems that this is very suitable for the end of Wenxin Bookstore.

In the blink of an eye, the weather has turned cooler, and every sentimental autumn season, I feel how accurate and vivid the concept of "eventful autumn" is.

First of all, I resigned from the post of editor-in-chief of the journal to Lao He of the Youth League Committee, and the new editor-in-chief I recommended was Dong Chunlei, and the recommended deputy editor-in-chief was Li Xiang. However, now that Dong Chunlei is already the pillar of the radio station, whether he is still willing to serve as the editor-in-chief, or whether the Youth League Committee is willing to let him concurrently serve is a question.

As for the seven-person writing group, which I jokingly called the Jiangnan Seven Monsters, it has basically been disbanded, and those who love to write continue to write, while the vassal and elegant people are busy falling in love, and it is normal to break up.

To my surprise, Lao He didn't ask me why I resigned, nor did he express his intention to stay, which made me feel a little disappointed. However, Lao He still warmly affirmed my outstanding contribution to the Literary Society, and the delegation expressed his gratitude to me.

This made me feel better, Bao Lina withdrew, I also quit, whether it was the Yuxin Literature Club or the club center, it had nothing to do with the two of us, in other words, our apparent bond had broken and disappeared.

As for the bond of the heart, only God can decide whether to break it or to keep it.

In the next few days, Li Yun and I rode bicycles through the streets and alleys of the west of the city whenever we had free time, with the simple goal of finding a suitable place to open a bookstore.

Li Yun and I didn't mention the meeting with King Zhou that day, and of course Li Yun also asked me, do you think what Zhou Xu said in the academy is true? Is there another you in this world?

I said I don't believe it.

Li Yun asked again: "Why?"

I said: "King Zhou Tianwang said that the guitar master he met was thin and handsome, and I was thin and thin, but I was not handsome, so the person he said must not be me." ”

Li Yun smiled brightly and said that you are quite self-aware.

Towards Christmas, we found an empty storefront, which was said to have been used to make clothes, but the owner was not doing well, and the prices were too high to compete with the bargains on the street of Matsukiba clothing, so the shop also collapsed and people ran away.

However, the location of this store is not bad, it is next to the kindergarten college, the little girls in the college will always pass by this store when they go in and out, but the poor shopkeeper doesn't understand, those eighteen or nineteen little girls, where will they have the money to buy his clothes for two or three hundred yuan, and there is no such thing as a female student as a second wife in that era.

However, although the little girls can't afford to buy clothes, they should be able to afford cheap and low-quality romance books, and there are two heavyweight universities around here, and there was no bookstore at that time, at most, there was a small bookstall at the intersection of the teaching and staff intersection, so it shouldn't be bad to choose this store for book business.

At that time, the rent was also relatively cheap, compared with the rent of 100,000 yuan at every turn in later generations, this store of about 20 square meters was only 15,000 yuan a year.

I discussed with Li Yun to make up our money, try to pay the rent, and I will find someone to borrow it for the later decoration, as for the approval and affiliation (it was best to find a backstage affiliation to open a store and do business back then, so that the approval would be much easier), isn't there also the Comrade Qian Haiping of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, they have a good relationship with various publishing houses and various booksellers, and they should be able to help.

Li Yun said, the credit card that the person left me, you can take out all the money, and we will return it to him after we make money.

I knew that the person she was talking about was Li Shusheng, and I couldn't help but sigh, Uncle Shusheng didn't know what was going on now, could he know that his daughter still didn't call him Dad?

After a short discussion, we agreed that this place was the most ideal of all the stores we had seen, so we told the landlord that we had booked this store and would pay the deposit in two days to sign the contract. I estimate that after the Spring Festival next year, this bookstore will be opened before the start of the new semester. The era of Wenxin Bookstore is over, and a new era of bookstores is about to begin.

On the way back, Li Yun asked me, "What are you going to name this bookstore?"

I smiled at her gently, "It's just called a bookstore, okay?"
