Ci Jinzhi

Xin You knew the young man's name was Li Li, and he was a printing apprentice.

In the list compiled by shopkeeper Hu, the craftsmen who mastered the key technologies all have their personal contracts. With the change of owner, the physical contracts have now been transferred to Xinyou.There are also some ordinary craftsman apprentices who are not the servants of the former employer Shen Ning, but just employment relationships.

This Li Li is the latter.

The perpetrator and the place where the incident occurred were found, and the rest will have to wait for the full moon.

Xin You was actually curious as to why shopkeeper Hu appeared outside the warehouse at that time, but it was obviously unwise to ask directly.

It would be too cheap for a person like Li Li to drive him away directly. The best solution is to catch the thief and seize the stolen goods, and then ask him why he did so.

Do you want to vent your unhappiness with your co-workers, or are you instigated by others when you see the improvement of the bookstore?

Fortunately, tomorrow is the [-]th of June, so if you observe the [-]th, [-]th, and [-]th, you will be able to make the demon appear.

"Shopkeeper, who has the key to the door from the house to the printing house?" Xin You asked on the way out of the printing house.

"Except for you and the villain, there is one from the two nursing homes, and one from Guanshi Zhao."

There are two managers in the bookstore, one is shopkeeper Hu, who is mainly in charge of the front, and the other is manager Zhao, who is responsible for managing the artisans of the printing workshop.

Xinyou's house is divided into east and west courtyards, and the west courtyard is assigned to these craftsmen.In addition to patrolling the house, the two guards also had the duty of patrolling the printing workshop.

"When did the two guards go to inspect the printing workshop?"

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "The bookstore is full of people during the day, so I don't need it. I usually go to inspect it at night, and go to inspect it before going to bed."

"There are only two guards, and it's really hard to inspect the house and the printing shop. Shopkeeper, you said that the rigid boards in the classics and history collection are very important, and these boards are all wooden, so mothproof and fireproof can't be relaxed, right? "

"That's for sure. The warehouses where the stereotypes are placed are all built separately and are not connected to each other. The floor is paved with stone slabs, and there is special treatment for moth prevention. Except for picking and placing the stereotypes, no one is allowed to enter or exit."

"I see that some of the book boards in the hall are covered with cloth. Is there anything special about it?"

Shopkeeper Hu was once again impressed by the progress of his new owner, and was very happy to explain: "It is a fire cloth, which has a certain fireproof effect. When the wood board and paper are being engraved, there are many people in a hurry, and it is easy to catch fire, so we use the fire cloth to cover it."

"Is that so—" Xin You showed a thoughtful look, "Since Huohuanbu has a certain fireproof effect, can it be used in the warehouse?"

Shopkeeper Hu's expression was complicated: "It's useless."

Faced with the puzzled expression of the new owner, the corner of the old shopkeeper's mouth twitched: "I don't have that much money."

Huohuanbu is not cheap either. Which printing house uses Huohuanbu for all the stereotypes in the warehouse.

"So that's how it is." Xin You was stunned.

Shopkeeper Hu: "..." Otherwise?

"How about this, first buy some fire raccoons for the storeroom I just saw, and then use the other storerooms when the account becomes more abundant."

Shopkeeper Hu opened his mouth to persuade, but then thought of the 2 taels thrown by his new owner, and stopped persuading: "Listen to the arrangement of the owner."

In the afternoon, shopkeeper Hu reported to Xinyou that Huanbu was ready.

"The shopkeeper arranged for two trustworthy people to move these cloths to the warehouse after nightfall."

Shopkeeper Hu froze for a moment.

Xin You looked calm: "Our bookstore has changed a lot recently, and the printing shop is trying to stay as usual, so as not to fluctuate people's hearts."

"The owner is still considerate."

When night fell, shopkeeper Hu found two reliable people to move Huanbu to the warehouse of Jibu, and covered it rigidly so there is no need to go into details.

The next day, June [-]th, shopkeeper Hu noticed that there were fewer people coming to the bookstore to sell books. He was still worried about the down-and-out scholars who had left angrily yesterday, so he sent his staff to go outside to find out.

Not long after, the buddy Liu Zhou came back angrily.

"Shopkeeper, that poor scholar said to everyone that our bookstore is lying to buy a story for 500 taels of silver. No matter how well written the story is, he would not buy it. He just wanted to attract people to sell other books!"

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Hu hurriedly reported to Xin You.

"Boss, if he is allowed to talk nonsense like this, the villain is worried that the gentleman who really writes stories with his heart will be deceived by him..."

"Don't worry about the shopkeeper, I know it well."

Seeing that Xinyou was unmoved, shopkeeper Hu sighed inwardly.

He always felt that the boss would miscalculate this time.

Forget it, the boss is still young, maybe he can grow faster with some training.As the shopkeeper, he couldn't dampen the confidence of his boss.

Xin You went back to the back residence, closed herself in the room, and continued to write unfinished stories.

It was night in a blink of an eye.

The bright moon is bright, the summer heat fades away at this moment, and the wind blows the flowers and trees.

The courtyard was very quiet, even the guards who were in charge of patrolling checked the locks of all the doors and rested.

On the road lit only by the moonlight, there were two people walking, they were Xinyou and Xiaolian.

"Miss, be careful where you step." Xiao Lian reminded in a low voice.

She didn't understand why the girl came out at this time and didn't light up the lamp, but what Xinyou had done before had given her complete trust in the new master.

In Xiao Lian's mind, the girl is mysterious and powerful, she even thought that maybe a fairy descended to avenge her girl?

"The moon is bright tonight." Xin You looked up at the bright moon in the sky and said softly.

Xiaolian also took a look at Mingyue, and agreed: "Yes, tomorrow is the fifteenth day."

Speaking of this, Xiao Lian couldn't help but think that the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in two months.

At that time, she will be the only one who will accompany the girl.

Does the girl have other family members?

The little maid was thinking about things, but Xin You went straight to the printing workshop with firm and calm steps.

The printing shop was even darker than the house, which was illuminated by lanterns under the eaves. Although there was a full moon hanging in the sky, everything still looked dark.

Xin You stopped and looked at the warehouse.

She can only infer that the time of the crime occurred after going to bed, but she can't judge the exact time, so she can only rely on the stupid method of waiting for a rabbit.

Originally, she also considered handing it over to the nursing home, but thinking about the apprentice named Li Li, Xin You dismissed the idea.

She had just taken over the bookstore, so it was unknown who she could really trust and who had a different heart.Since she can stop it, there is no need to hand it over to someone who is not sure.

For three nights, I can afford it.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, and Xiaolian tugged on Laxinyou's sleeve in surprise.

Xin You patted her on the arm to signal not to be nervous, and hid in the dark, staring at the people who were getting closer.

Fortunately, the scene seen in the picture happened on the first night.

The man looked around, walked to the door of the warehouse, took out a firewood to light the firewood, opened the door and threw the firewood inside.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Hu appeared and shouted angrily, "What are you doing!"

Li Li's face changed drastically, he picked up the stone hidden in his sleeve and slammed it at Shopkeeper Hu's head.

Xiaolian couldn't help but exclaimed.
