When a book-buying customer sees the book placed on the counter by the landlady, he can't wait to open it and read it.

"Hey, that's not okay."

The landlady pressed it down with one palm, and at the same time stretched out her other hand, "One tael of silver, pay first and see later."

"One tael of silver? The last book was only fifty cents!" The guest's eyes widened.

"That's the price. If you think it's expensive, you can look elsewhere."

The guest's face turned blue. Although he felt that he had been cheated, he still took out a tael of silver from his wallet.

"If the previous one hadn't hit the most tense and exciting points, I wouldn't have bought this one."

The landlady took the money, gave the book to the guest, and said with a smile: "Read it slowly, don't worry, I have the third and fourth volumes here, keep them for your satisfaction and excitement. And I'll wait for you to read them." After reading it, you can take it back and sell it to me at a discount, as long as it’s not damaged, I’ll take it.”

After hearing this, the guest's face looked better.

"The boss lady told me earlier, this is only reasonable."

"Right, the reason why our business at Zhilan Study is so good is because we consider our customers."

The customer left with satisfaction, and the landlady personally walked him to the door.

Liu Yunxiang whispered to Yan Mu: "The customer will sell the book to the study at a discount, and the study will sell it to other customers at the original price. This landlady is a good businessman."

"Thank you for your compliment."

The landlady looked at Liu Yunxiang at this time and smiled at her.

Liu Yunxiang lowered his voice, and because of the distance and the noise of people in the study, the landlady could actually hear him clearly. Liu Yunxiang was a little embarrassed, coughed dryly, and walked forward with a smile.

"Are you Boss Xu?"

The landlady nodded, "Yes, are you two here to buy books?"

"Well, actually we have other things to do. Can we take a moment to talk?"

The landlady's mind wandered, and she didn't know what she thought of. She raised her head and looked at Yan Mu behind Liu Yunxiang, then covered her mouth and smiled, "You two, please come with me."

The landlady led them to the west room. Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu looked around, then looked at each other, and then followed them into the west room.

As soon as I opened the curtain, I smelled a strong smell of herbs. When I looked carefully, I saw that there was a chest of drawers in the west room, the kind that contained herbs. There is a square table and chairs in front of the cabinet. There are several medical books and a pulse pillow on the table.

"sit down."

When the landlady said this, she had already sat down behind the square table, and then looked at Yan Mu.

Yan Mu was a little confused and didn't understand what the landlady meant.

Liu Yunxiang was also confused, so he said: "Someone told us to come here to find you, Boss Xu. Maybe you can help us."

The landlady looked at Yan Mu and smiled, "He looks quite strong, but he turns out to be an empty frame. Okay, sit down, I'll take your pulse first and see where the problem is."

As she spoke, the proprietress threw the pulse pillow over, telling Yan Mu to sit down and put his wrist on it.

Only now did Yan Mu and Liu Yunxiang understand what the boss lady meant. Yan Mu was speechless: "We are not here to see a doctor!"

The landlady frowned and said, "Treat your illness, what's the point of being embarrassed? Even your wife is a grown man, and you're making a fuss about it."

"No..." Liu Yunxiang blinked, "Are you a doctor?"

"I can't talk about it as a doctor. It's just a skill passed down from family. It specializes in treating men's difficult and complicated diseases."

Liu Yunxiang was speechless and amused, and seeing that Yan Mu's face was already ashen, he hurriedly explained: "He is not sick, and we are not here to see a doctor."

The landlady said, "Then what are you here for?"

"Do you know Mr. Bai from Banshan Academy?"

When Liu Yunxiang mentioned this person, the landlady stood up and said, "That old guy, where is he? I'm going to chop him up!"

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, what a hatred.

Will Old Man Bai entrust the Three Treasures to her?

Liu Yunxiang paused for a moment, then asked: "We want to ask you..."

"Old man Bai has entrusted you with a child. We want to see that child." Yan Mu interrupted Liu Yunxiang's words and said bluntly.

Upon hearing this, the landlady's eyes widened and she was a little panicked, "Where did the child come from? He didn't give it to me... Besides, even if he gave it to me... I can't have it."

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, and Yan Mu deliberately used a positive tone, originally to offend the boss's wife. Seeing how nervous she was, it seemed that even if Sanbao was not here with her, she still knew about Sanbao.

Liu Yunxiang's mind changed and he said, "Didn't you just ask us where that old man Bai is?"

"He, where is he?"

"Yangzhou Prison."

The landlady was stagnant for a moment, and then she slowly exhaled for a while.

"This old guy who wants to die has long advised him not to be impulsive. How...how dare he get himself into such big trouble!" The landlady was trembling with anger.

"I think you know to some extent what the child's identity is."

"I... I don't know..."

Yan Mu slapped his palm on the table, making a clang sound that made the landlady tremble in fright.

"He is seeking death, and you want to accompany him?"

"No, no...I really don't know..."

Just when the landlady was panicking, someone shouted in the courtyard: "Oh no, the east wing is on fire!"

The landlady came to her senses immediately, got up quickly, opened the door, and looked outside, and saw that the east wing was indeed on fire.

"Oh, this little brat never lets me live in peace for a day." (End of Chapter)
