Chapter 48: Buying Books

The road was not far, but it was definitely not close, and the group walked for four hours before entering the city when it was dark.

Lin Zhining himself also miscalculated, he originally thought that he would be able to play a round trip today, but he forgot that he was not traveling alone, and there were a few croppers by his side.

Although they were tired, a few of them saw the city and regained some strength, they were all young people, if it weren't for the chaos of the world, few of them didn't want to go to a lively place.

Maybe it was because of Lin Zhining's extraordinary bearing, maybe because of the collapse of discipline, in short, they didn't encounter any trouble, and they entered the city before dark.

Shandong has always been a thriving place of literary style, although the old private schools still occupy more educational resources during the Republic of China, but there are many new schools.

Although Lin Zhining plans to teach in a private school, he does not intend to teach all traditional culture, I have to say that although traditional culture has its own uniqueness, but in the face of strong ships and sharp guns, it is still more advantageous to learn new culture.

After settling a few people to rest, he planned to go to the bookstore alone to see if there were any books that echoed his heart, although he could remember the contents of textbooks from elementary school to high school, but it has always been human nature to be lazy, and he did not intend to write those contents silently.

Several young people were already very tired, and they were also a little afraid of Lin Zhining, so Lin Zhining asked them to rest in the inn, so they stayed in the inn obediently, but Xiao Wu was in high spirits, but the reason was that Lin Zhining couldn't cry or laugh, "You go alone, who knows what bad things you are planning, I must follow and stare at you." ”

Lin Zhining was a little helpless, is my reputation so bad, besides, you guys have anything worth trying for, but he also knows that arguing with a little girl has no benefit, so he has no objection.

Although the current city is quite large, it is not as good as later generations, and it will not be long before the two of them come to a bookstore.

Although Xiao Wu deliberately changed into clean clothes, after all, she was born in a poor family and entered the bookstore, even if she was lively and bold, she was a little uneasy and shy.

Grabbing the corner of his clothes, he followed closely behind Lin Zhining with broken steps, constantly secretly looking around, looking at the dazzling books, his eyes revealed a look of envy and excitement.

Lin Zhining was a little funny and a little emotional, for modern people, books may not be a precious thing, but for Xiao Wu, this is a sacred treasure that they dare not touch.

Lin Zhining didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to follow her behind her, and if she wanted to open a private school, she could always learn something.

Walking through the sea of books, he picked up a book of interest from time to time, flipped through a few pages, shook his head and put it down, and continued to search.

The guy at the bookstore looked at the two of them curiously, in his opinion, these two people are really a little strange, is that scholar obviously incompetent, and that boy looks extraordinary, I don't know if it is a belly of straw, there are so many books, none of them are with his heart.

"This son, what books do you want to read, I'll help you find them. The guy came up, looked at Lin Zhining and said.

Xiao Wu saw someone coming, hid his body behind Lin Zhining, and withdrew his gaze from looking around.

"Well, that's fine, I'm looking for some new books, do you have them here?" Lin Zhining didn't notice Xiao Wu's movements behind him, and asked gently.

"I'll tell you the truth, our store has the most complete books in the neighborhood, Childe, come with me. As soon as the guy heard that Lin Zhining really wanted to buy books, he took Lin Zhining to a row of bookshelves with a smile on his face.

Lin Zhining picked up a few books and flipped through them, he read them very quickly, a book could be read in a few minutes, and the little five and the shop guys behind him frowned secretly, where is this what it looks like to read a book.

The shopkeeper couldn't help but show a little contempt, but he concealed it very well, and then disappeared, standing beside Lin Zhining with a smile and a word.

Xiao Wu found the eyes of the shopkeeper, she was also a little puzzled, I don't know if Mr. really understands, frowned, and quietly pulled the corner of Lin Zhining's clothes, making a look.

Lin Zhining looked at the shopkeeper who was smiling beside him and understood Xiao Wu's thoughts, but he didn't care about the shopkeeper's contempt, he really had a headache.

Although he looked through it quickly, he had already found some problems, these new books were really a bit unsystematic, only at the junior high school level, and the advanced ones were at the university level, but they were too scattered, and they were not as good as the textbooks sorted out by later generations, and it was not easy to learn step by step.

But he also knew that the new books at this time were roughly like this, and he really needed to write out the textbooks of later generations. Shaking his head, he didn't think about it, it was better to buy some first, and then how to teach it still needs to be considered by himself.

Now that he has made a decision, Lin Zhining will not read more, and ask the man to prepare some more Mongolian books and Confucian classics, as well as some new general books, and pack them for him, and he will pick them up tomorrow.

After paying the deposit, the store guy was already full of sincere smiles, whether it was a straw bag or not, those books were sold for real, since the guests needed it, he naturally would not have any objections, set a time to pick up the books tomorrow, and respectfully sent Lin Zhining and them out of the bookstore.

"Sir, are those books that we want to learn?" Xiao Wu was a little excited and a little apprehensive, and couldn't help but ask on the way back.

"Why, don't call me a jerk now. Seeing that Xiao Wu was about to have a seizure, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, as long as you are willing to learn, I will definitely be able to teach." ”

Hearing Lin Zhining's sure answer, Xiao Wu jumped up happily, and then, seeing the smile on Lin Zhining's face, his face turned slightly red, and he giggled and ran away, forgetting to hide his identity.

Lin Zhining looked at her revealing the innocence of her daughter's family, shook her head and smiled, and followed.
