PFC Chapter 326 Strange
Chapter 326 Strange
Lin'an County.
The next morning, the city gates were wide open.
There was a constant stream of passers-by passing by, and the stalls on both sides of the street were crowded with passers-by. The sounds of vendors hawking their wares and carriages and horses passing by made the street very lively.
"Sister, is there a rally in the county today? It's so lively."
"Second sister, look over there, there are chicks and ducks for sale." Many people excitedly grabbed the railing of the cart, stood up and pointed to one place.
"I see, I see. Don't get excited. Watch the road." Xu Zhi pulled Xuan, who had stood up excitedly, to sit down.
Xu Yuan was driving Dahua towards the place where the livestock were parked. There were too many pedestrians on the street, making it difficult to drive the car, so Ziheng got off the ground and walked.
Xu Yuan warned: "Guozi, Xiaoduo, you two should follow us closely and don't lose us."
"Sister, I will take good care of Xiaoduo, don't worry."
After settling Dahua down, Xu Yuan took a few people to the bun shop and bought a big meat bun for each of them. Then the four of them squatted under the eaves in a quiet and deserted place and started eating the buns.
"Sister, the meat buns you make are still the most delicious." Xuanyue muttered after chewing the meat bun in his hand.
"Of course, it doesn't matter whose craftsmanship it is." Xu Yuan clapped his hands and threw the oil paper in his hand to a garbage dump not far away.
"Come on, where do you want to go? Sister will take you there."
"Sister, why don't you go and do your thing first?" Xu Zhi reminded.
"Okay, let's go there first."
……
Shangfang Bookstore
"Big sister, there are so many books here! And playing cards."
Many people held Xuyuan's hands and stepped into the bookstore for the first time, exclaiming in low voices and looking around.
There were quite a few people in the store at that time. The shop assistant was busy entertaining customers. When he saw Xu Yuan and his group coming in, he hurried forward to greet them.
"Xiaozhi, take Xiaoduo and Guozi for a walk here. I'll be back soon."
"I know, sister."
Led by the shop assistant into the reception room, manager Yang came in soon.
"Miss Xu, what good things did you bring this time?"
Xu Yuan took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and waved his hand for Shopkeeper Yang to sit down.
Then he untied the cloth bag he brought and took out a book from it.
Shopkeeper Yang was slightly surprised when he saw that it was a book. "I didn't expect Miss Xu to be such a talented person."
"You're joking. It's not what you think. Shopkeeper Yang, you should take a look at this."
Xu Yuan explained, knowing that the middle-aged man in front of him had misunderstood and thought it was a storybook like a vernacular book.
Shopkeeper Yang gave an awkward laugh and took the book that Xu Yuan handed over. It had a yellow cover with three simple characters “Eight-Section Brocade” written on it.
After opening it, Shopkeeper Yang's pupils trembled, "This is..."
"Miss Xu, are you sure you want to sell us such a valuable secret book?"
Shopkeeper Yang said this with a serious look on his face, somewhat incredulously.
Xu Yuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw the serious look on Manager Yang's face.
"Manager Yang, don't worry. This is not some martial arts secret manual passed down from generation to generation. This is just a simple health-preserving qigong secret manual. Anyone can learn it. It is only for strengthening the body."
"Is that so?"
Shopkeeper Yang was a little bit unconvinced.
"Of course, after all, you also know that ordinary martial arts secrets are actually difficult to appear on the market."
"Miss Xu, can I know the origin of this Eight-Section Brocade?"
In fact, Shopkeeper Yang did not distrust the character of the girl in front of him. Just based on the last cooperation with playing cards, the store's already booming business became even more popular. It can be seen that playing cards are indeed very popular with everyone, regardless of gender, age or status, and are suitable for all people.
If this Eight Section Brocade is really as Xu Yuan said, everyone can practice it, and its strange and interesting moves, even I was attracted when I took a look at it.
Asking clearly about the source is actually to avoid unnecessary trouble later.
Xu Yuan understood, "Shopkeeper Yang, you don't have to worry. In fact, this is a set of exercises for strengthening the body that my father has studied for many years and figured out. Because of some minor changes in the family, I had no choice but to sell this set of exercises."
The serious words came out without any hesitation, and Xu Yuan couldn't help but secretly feel that he really had the talent to speak eloquently.
Shopkeeper Yang thought for a long time and made up his mind, "Then may I ask how much this Eight-Section Brocade costs, Miss Xu?"
"Since this is a health-preserving Qigong suitable for all ages, I hope the price of Ba Duan Jin can't be too high. It should be within the range that everyone can afford. The dividend ratio can be 40% for you and 60% for me. Is that feasible?"
Since the price cannot be too high, it is destined that this Eight Section Brocade will not be sold at a good price here.
"Miss Xu, can you allow me to send it to another place for sale?"
"Of course, it's up to you." Xu Yuan nodded.
All I have to do is sit back and wait for the money to come in.
"Okay, then it's a deal."
"By the way, Miss Qiu has recently published a new book of stories, and she has left one especially for you. Would you like to take it with you now, Miss Xu?"
"Yes, thank you, shopkeeper."
……
"Sister, what's going on?"
After walking around the store for a long time, Xu Zhi finally waited for his elder sister to show up.
"Well, all right."
Xu Yuan nodded and chuckled, looking at the many Japanese confectionery items hovering beside a bookshelf, "Take whatever you like, and I'll buy it for you."
"Sister, we still can't use them. Let's just take a look. They are so expensive. We can't afford them." Guozi came over, quietly pulled his sister's sleeve, and said softly.
"Yes, sister, we are going out. We don't have anything to sell." Many others also whispered.
"It's okay. Your sister and I just negotiated a big deal. We are not short of money now. Besides, I am a big customer here. I can get discounts when I buy things. You don't have to worry about money." Xu Yuan comforted.
"Really?"
Many were some surprises.
Xu Yuan nodded, "Buy whatever you like. You guys rarely come out today. It would be a shame to go back empty-handed!"
"Then sister, I want that brush." Guozi said happily.
"purchase!"
Many of the Japanese confectioners each bought a brush, some ink and paper, and then left the bookstore.
……
"Boss, what are you doing?"
After the shop assistant saw Xu Yuan and his group off, he saw that their boss had not come out for a long time. Fearing that Manager Yang was too excited and something bad had happened, he hurried to the reception room.
When the clerk pushed the door open and saw Shopkeeper Yang performing strange moves, his brows were furrowed, he was puzzled, scratched his head and asked in bewilderment.
Could it be that he was possessed by some invisible dirty thing?
How strange!
Normally, Shopkeeper Yang would never do such an awkward action.
