Qian Zhuo blinked her eyes, meet someone? Who?
While she was thinking, she saw Yun Shang walk in, and then followed her in a hurry.
"Hello, Madam." The shopkeeper came out from behind the counter and walked up to her with a smile. "What can I do for you?"
Yun Shang looked around the Bookstore, but didn't see the person she wanted to see. She just said casually, "Just have a look."
The shopkeeper looked at Yun Shang up and down. Seeing that Yun Shang was dressed in luxurious clothes, he put on a flattering smile and said, "There are many books in our bookstore. However, the books sold downstairs were no different from those sold in other bookstores. But we still have a lot of books upstairs, which are not easy to find in the market. If you are interested, you can go upstairs and have a look."
"Oh?" Hearing this, Yun Shang rolled her eyes and said, "Great. I'll go upstairs to have a look."
The shopkeeper immediately led Yun Shang to the second floor. As soon as they went upstairs, they saw two tables at the entrance of the stairs, on which there were writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone. There was no one else beside the table, but there was a piece of paper on the table, with a few words scattered on it.
Rows of bookshelves were neatly arranged on both sides. Only slight footsteps could be heard from the back of the bookshelf, but no one was seen.
"I'll take care of myself. You can go ahead with your work. If there is any book I like, I will come to find you. " Yun Shang glanced around and turned to the shopkeeper.
"Okay, okay." The shopkeeper replied, but there was still a little hesitation on his face. "Madam, it seems that it's the first time you've been to our bookstore, right? The books upstairs are very precious. I hope you can cherish them."
"I know. Don't worry, boss. If I damage any book, I will compensate you according to the price."
The shopkeeper nodded. Seeing that someone had entered downstairs, he went downstairs in a hurry.
"The shopkeeper is really..." Qian Yin curled her lips and murmured, "It's just some books. He is afraid that your ma... your ladyship can't afford the compensation? Any of the jewelry you wear can even buy his bookstore."
Yun Shang smiled and heard footsteps behind the bookshelf beside her. She said with a smile, "Don't talk nonsense. His worry is reasonable. It's easy to ask for money, but good books are rare. Even if your family is rich, you may not be able to get some lone origin."
When Qian Zhuo was about to say something, a voice came over, "This lady is right. It's easy to ask for money, but good books are rare. A real good book is priceless. Even if you are the king, you may not be able to get it, let alone a rich family."
The two looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old man about sixty years old coming out of the bookshelf with two books in his hands.
