Along with the sound.

Then I saw three people crossing the threshold of the bookstore and walking in.

The leader looks like a boy of thirteen or fourteen. You can tell by looking at his aura.

And next to this young man, there is also a young man who looks about sixteen or seventeen. Now in ancient times, fifteen or sixteen can be considered an adult.

And this boy of sixteen or seventeen looked like he was following the lead of the boy who was thirteen or fourteen years old.

There is another one who is thin and dark, but has a tall frame, but he is not dressed in silk clothes like the first two, but in coarse linen clothes. From this look, he is the follower.

Feng En, who is a businessman, has long been trained to have a sharp eye and knows who is the distinguished guest, so he hurriedly went to greet the thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy and said with a smile: "I'm disrespectful when you come to the distinguished guest. I don't know if you want to buy something."

What book?"

Needless to say, the thirteen- or fourteen-year-old boy was Liang Ping'an. He looked at the middle-aged man who was approaching him, with bruises on his face and a swollen eye. He looked like the shopkeeper of the bookstore.

,road:

"Oh, we're not here to buy books." After a pause, he asked in surprise: "Shopkeeper, what are you doing?"

Liang Ping'an looked at the injuries on Feng En's face and asked.

The shopkeeper hurriedly covered it up and said: "I accidentally fell down and got hurt, I got hurt..."

As he said this, he suddenly thought of what the other party said, so he asked: "Your Majesty, if you are not a book buyer, why don't you come to my bookstore...?"

At this time, Liang Pingjun spoke from the side and said, "I just saw the notice posted outside your door, but you want to sell this bookstore?"

When Feng En heard this, he immediately understood that they really wanted to buy the bookstore in his hands.

I couldn't help but feel happy, but at the same time a little sour.

I am happy because I can finally sell this hot potato and have nothing to do with this store in the future. What is sad is that after all, this is the bookstore I have been running for more than ten years.

Now is the time for this bookstore to take drastic measures and develop its ambitions, and to sell it at this time, it is inevitable that I will feel resentment in my heart.

But then again, if this bookstore can still continue to operate, how can he be willing to sell it?

Seeing the confused look on the shopkeeper's face, after a while, the shopkeeper still hadn't responded to him. Liang Pingjun couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and asked in a slightly louder voice: "Is it the shopkeeper?"

Feng Encai suddenly woke up again, and hurriedly bowed to Liang Pingjun and Liang Pingan and said:

"Ah, sorry, sorry, I was a little distracted just now. Well, sell, sell, I am the shopkeeper of this bookstore, and I am also the owner of this bookstore. Do you want to buy the bookstore?"

Liang Ping'an hurriedly answered and said with a smile: "Yes, but the notice you posted said that this bookstore, including the front store, and the engraving book workshop in the backyard, add up to a total of five hundred taels.

Silver, is this true?"

Hearing what Liang Ping'an said, Feng En's face felt a little unnatural, but it quickly dissipated and he said:

"It is indeed true. The price is five hundred taels of silver. If the young master pays the silver taels now, then I will hand over the house deed immediately. In addition, we can go to the Yamen immediately to complete the procedures for handing over the store."

When you go to the Yamen to complete the store handover procedures, you must leave a voucher with the Yamen, in order to prevent both parties from unilaterally regretting it.

With official endorsement, these troubles are eliminated.

When Liang Ping'an heard that the price was really 500 taels of silver, he felt a little unbelievable. The area of ​​​​the bookstore, the price of the workshop, etc., all added up, should be far more than 500 taels!

According to Liang Ping'an's own estimate, it would be at least a thousand taels. Even a thousand taels of silver is too low!

But the other party actually wanted to sell it to me for five hundred taels. This is simply unbelievable!

Liang Ping'an then asked in confusion: "Shopkeeper, this bookstore, including the workshop at the back, only sells for 500 taels? Shopkeeper, let me tell you, if I come to sell this bookstore, it will cost more than 500 taels."

!”

When the shopkeeper Feng En heard this, he knew that the other party would definitely ask this question, so it would be strange not to ask.

So he immediately used the words he had already thought of and said: "Alas, I don't know something. The main reason is that my mother is seriously ill and needs a sum of money urgently. Therefore, I have no choice but to say, alas! Alas!"

Liang Ping'an and Liang Pingjun looked at each other, and they both saw a hint of doubt in each other's eyes.

But since people say that, it makes perfect sense!

Liang Ping'an didn't want to worry so much anymore. In short, it was a must to win this bookstore!

Liang Ping'an's business empire in Yanjing will start from here!

So Liang Ping'an glanced at Liang Pingjun, and Liang Pingjun immediately took out five banknotes from his arms, each with a denomination of one hundred taels.

Liang Ping'an said at this time: "This is a banknote from Zhengtong Bank. There is a special number for it in the capital. The shopkeeper should hand over the money with one hand and the deed with the other, right?"

Feng En, the shopkeeper, had already prepared the deed. He took it out from his pocket and handed it to Liang Ping'an. Then he carefully took the five banknotes from Zhengtong Bank. After a closer look, he found that they were indeed from Zhengtong Bank.

real.

Liang Ping'an and Liang Pingjun were also checking whether the deed was genuine, and then after looking at it for a while, they confirmed that it was all genuine.

Then Liang Pingan said: "In that case, let's go to the Yamen to sign the handover?"

Feng En, the shopkeeper, had a complex expression on his face, but in the end he was more happy, so he said: "Of course, it's the right thing to do, so let's go now?"

Liang Ping'an nodded and said "Yeah".

The gate of the county government office in Yanjing County.

Liang Ping'an's carriage and the carriage of Feng En, the shopkeeper of Defu Bookstore, both stopped one after another at this time.

Liang Ping'an and Liang Pingjun got off the carriage. Liang Ping'an asked Shang Shichen to watch the carriage not far outside the government office. After all, the carriage had been parked at the gate of the county government office. After thinking about it with his head, he knew that it must not be good. This place is in

ancient society.

Shopkeeper Feng also got off the carriage and asked the shop assistant to lead the carriage to the side of Liang Ping'an's carriage.

Immediately, Liang Ping'an, Liang Pingjun and Shopkeeper Feng stood at the gate of the Yamen together. Liang Pingan smiled politely to a Yamen servant standing in front of the Yamen and told them what they were going to do when they came to the Yamen.

He also took out two ingots worth two taels of silver each and put them into the hands of the two gatekeepers.

One of the officials weighed the money and bit it with his teeth to confirm that it was genuine, so he said to the other: "Go, take them to the clerk in the household."

The yamen officer immediately smiled and raised his head towards Liang Ping'an and the others, meaning to follow him.

So Liang Ping'an followed him and walked into the Yamen.

When he arrived at the county government office, the official found a scribe and told him the purpose of the person following him.
