A simple bed leaned against the bookshelf, quietly placed in the bookstore.

At night, the bookstore is lit with small orange lamps, which illuminate the inside of the bookstore with warm tones.

There are three or four beds next to it, and all the people living on them are people who read books in the bookstore during the day.

One of them was explaining to a group of children during the day, and he seemed to be an employee on the night shift in the bookstore.

The young man swept around.

The people here all look like travelers, with big schoolbags on their backs, and they all seem to be staying here.

"Dude, where are you from?"

A curly-haired boy was lying on the other bed, with a book spread out in front of him, and asked curiously.

This little guy with curly hair looks like he is only 22 or 23 years old, his eyes are blue and blue, a bit like a mixed race.

The young man said, "I'm from Dong Huan."

"Are you from Donghuan? I'm from Xihuan!!" Suddenly an excited voice sounded from the other bed.

Then a young man with glasses held up the book in his hand, "We are fellow villagers!"

The young man was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Yes! Fellow fellow!!"

Donghuan and Xihuan can travel to several cities, just because they both belong to the same province, so on this remote Nanjiang island, they are indeed fellow villagers.

"I saw you during the day, are you an employee of the bookstore?" The young man with glasses turned his head and asked Chen Jianhai next to him.

"Isn't it? I'm here to help." Chen Jianhai hesitated and replied.

Regarding his identity, Chen Jianhai is still very accurate.

Even if you push yourself again, you will still be the boss!

According to the normal life process, he should play games on the soft island hotel bed at night.

But this evening, Chen Jianhai really touched the wandering thoughts of literary youth.

He is so big that he has slept a lot in the hotel bed.

It was the first time I slept on the floor in the bookstore, so I was a little excited when I thought about it.

It's just that this bed is really not long enough, and Chen Jianhai's calf is hanging down outside, which is very uncomfortable.

In one sentence, everyone's words were completely gone.

In addition to poor travel like youth, the glasses guy and the curly-haired guy all came to the marathon venue on the island.

They saw the beautiful environment of the island on TV before, and they came up with the idea of ​​running around.

At first, the two lived in the fishermen's house, and then they walked around the island and left by boat today.

But I didn't expect this turn, I climbed this mountain inexplicably and found this library.

What happened next was the same as that of the youth.

Everyone was overwhelmed by the rich and numerous bibliophiles here, missed the boat at night, and was finally stayed by the kind-hearted staff.

The movable bookshelf on the first floor just created a closed and safe small space for them.

Perhaps because of the crowds,

Instead of giving people a terrifying sense of depression, the dark books around them felt as if they were lying in a paradise of books.

"Sitting here for a day, the phone's battery is still 73%."

The curly-haired brother took out his mobile phone and said something in surprise.

"There are so many books, who still looks at the phone!" The spectacled brother turned over, put the finished book back on the shelf, and took out a new one.

"The Feasible Operation of Medieval Black Magic Applied to Cattle"

"As the importance of cattle for farming became more and more prominent, the western folk in the Middle Ages gradually began to experiment with the application of black magic to farming cattle."

"Under the influence of black magic, the oxen each gave birth to three heads, and their strength was infinite. The food production of that year was a bumper harvest..."

"Which country wrote this book??"

Brother Glasses read the book title and introduction, and finally asked a question from the depths of his soul in surprise.

The cover of the book is very beautifully done, and the rose lacquer seal of the medieval scenic spot can be seen on the surface.

Guarol Flip it over and look at the pricing:

"$179!" The guy with glasses exclaimed.

Does the owner of this bookstore have too much heart?

Spend so much money for such a book!

"It's really rich..." The spectacled brother sighed sincerely.

Just as he was talking, the younger brother with glasses suddenly shrank his pupils and looked at Chen Jianhai in surprise.

I saw Chen Jianhai stand up, remove two large stacks of books from the bookshelf, and place them neatly under the bed board.

Finally, the book was placed as high as the bed board.

"It's comfortable this time."

Chen Jianhai put two sheets of paper on top of the book, then put his legs on the book and lay down comfortably.

This time, I can finally stretch my legs.

"It's really nice here. If I can stay here, I'd like to read all the books here."

The young man sat on the bed, holding the book of 2 yuan that he gave away, and said melancholy.

"Let's stay!" The curly-haired brother is a cheerful and chatty character, "We have slept here for two days, as long as we help clean up during the day, feed the cat food, and change the books on the special shelf."

"Go to the island to have a meal during the day, and stay here to play with cats and read books during the rest of the day. It's better than staying at home."

The young man was surprised, "Really!! Don't you need accommodation fees?"

The curly-haired boy said, "No!"

"I heard that it is the boss's rule that as long as you are reading books and are willing to help in the bookstore and do the work, you can stay here for free at night."

It's more fun than prostitution!

The young man was shocked.

Looking at the whole room of books, the young man said with emotion, "The owner of this bookstore is really an amazing person."

"I don't know who the owner of this bookstore is. If I have a chance, I really want to know this owner!"

The curly-haired brother flipped through the book "The Feasibility of Medieval Black Magic Applied to Cattle" and said:

"No, this boss is much stronger than the boss of the small island hotel below the mountain~www.novelhall.com~ eh???

Upon hearing this, Chen Jianhai was not happy.

He was delighted to hear these people complimenting him earlier.

Why did you suddenly scold the Master?

The curly-haired brother said, "A bookstore knows how to save money by virtue of righteousness, help the rivers and lakes, and give us scholars a roof and green tiles that are protected from the wind and rain."

"The hotel at the foot of the mountain actually asks for money!!!"

When Chen Jianhai heard this, he almost smashed him to death with the book in his hand.

Whose hotel accommodation doesn't cost money! !

Is this a human word?

"The most hateful thing is the customer service manager of the hotel." The curly-haired boy opened his mouth and closed the book in his hand, looking resentful.

"I asked the question on the Internet of the Island Hotel, and he answered quite perfunctoryly!"

Chen Jianhai couldn't help but said, "What are you asking?"

The curly-haired brother said, "I asked if I can live in if I don't have money?"

"As a result, it took four days for the other party to reply to me, saying: Hello, dear guest, thank you for your consultation, and wish you a happy life."

"You said that you are not angry!"

Chen Jianhai: Why am I not mad at you...!
