Three months later...
On this day, Liu Mufeng was sitting in the lounge reading a book. Seeing that a stack of ten books had been read, but the young man hadn't delivered the books yet, Liu Mufeng frowned. He had to pick up all the books he had finished reading, and walked out of the lounge to the hall.
When he arrived to the hall, Liu Mufeng put all the books he had finished reading back on the bookshelf. Just as he was about to select other books, he saw a man in white clothes and a silver mask walking in front of him, like fairy.
"Give me two books about monsters, a map of the north" The man said calmly while looking at Liu Mufeng. His voice is very pleasant to hear, but his words don't have any emotions. It sounded like a robot voice, cold without any temperature.
"Okay!" Nodding, Liu Mufeng looked around. He found that the bookstore owner was with other customers, but the bookstore's little boy was not in the store. Reluctantly walking to the bookshelf, Liu Mufeng immediately found two books about monsters that he had read, then took a map that he had just read last night, and handed them to the man.
"How much?" After receiving the books and the map, the man put them directly into his space ring.
"Books are Ten taels of silver each, and the map is also Ten taels of silver. A total of thirty taels of silver." After staying in this bookstore for three months, Liu Mufeng matured. Not only he is quick to find books, but also, He knew the cost of everything.
"Here, keep the rest" He threw a Fifty taels silver ingot to Liu Mufeng, and the man walked away.
"Thank you, Lord" Bowing his head and thanking him, Liu Mufeng, imitating the bookstore little boy while seeing off the customers. The title of the honorific is used by ordinary people calling the cultivators, and the little boy is an ordinary person, so he will call every guest Lord.
The man ignored Liu Mufeng, and walked out very fast. When Liu Mufeng raised his head and looked, the man had already left.
Liu Mufeng successfully completed his business here, and the boss also completed his business, and he sent the customers out respectfully.
"Boss, here you are, I sold two books about demonic beasts and a map of the north!" Liu Mufeng handed over the money.
"Thank you Ninth young master, the twenty taels of silver your reward, I will replace it with broken silver for you" After receiving the silver, the boss smiled and thanked.
"No, I want two maps too, just take these twenty silvers" With that said, Liu Mu familiarly took a full map of Lingwu Continent and a map of the north from the bookshelf.
"Okay" Nodding, the boss agreed. Anyway, this map is sold for five taels of silver, two maps worth twenty taels of silver, he earned it no matter how much he counted.
"Boss, where's the little boy? You are busy with everything here, why I don't see even his shadow" Liu Mufeng asked suspiciously after putting away the maps.
"Ah, the little boy is sick, so he asked me to take a few days off. He won't come back for a while" When it comes to this, the boss is also very depressed.
"Oh, that's it. I hope he gets better soon" Liu Mufeng really didn't care about the little helper he just wanted him to do errands for him. He had to go to the bookshelf to get the books by himself. After taking the books, he walked up to the boss and let him look over. "These are Ten books, please count them"
"Eh, Ninth young master, am I still worried? My books won't worth a lot of money, I already trust you after the first stack of books, they remained the same" With a smile, the boss said.
"Okay, then I'm going back" Holding the books, Liu Mufeng went straight back to the lounge.
Looking at Liu Mufeng's back, the boss hummed. Thinking : Is this Liu Family Ninth Young Master a fool? Cultivators like to read martial arts, cultivation methods, and read books about the inheritance techniques. However, He's reading idle books here every day. I advised him to read at least about demonic monsters, you will might get killed when you go out to practice in the future, you can at least know a few types of monsters, or read about the spirit grass, gain more informations when you go out you will find and collect the spirit grass, but he is reading geography, What is the use of history books? Isn't that just a waste of time?
